(added trope)
Line 20:
* [[Drugs Are Bad]]: Used by the OVA in place of [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul]]: it's not the cybernetics per se that drives the users crazy, but the massive quantities of [[Psycho Serum]] they have to take to use the implants effectively. Eight Man makes do with good-old [[Super Serum]].
* [[Expository Theme Tune]]: The theme to the English dub combines this trope and [[Never Trust a Trailer]], as the theme and ([[Importation Expansion|American animated]]) opening sequence described Eight Man fighting aliens (which he never does) and flying (which he can't do).
* [[Phlebotinum Pills]]: 8 Man's "radium cigarettes".
* [[Runs On Nonsensoleum]]: 8 Man recharges his super-batteries or whatever by smoking radium-laced cigarettes.
* [[Super Serum]]: Used in the OVA.
