Line 103:
* [[Patrick Stewart Speech]]: Garrod usually replies to an enemy with either this or [[Shut UP, Hannibal]].
* [[People Jars]]: {{spoiler|Lucille Lilliant, Jamil's [[Cool Big Sis]] and first love, was put in a coma and placed in a capsule in suspended animation}}
* [[The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything]]: The Freeden, nominally a Vulture ship, is last shown scavenging pre-war ruins in episode 6. After that the ship seems to exist exclusively for Jamil's quest to find Newtypes.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: [[Mika Kanai]], Tiffa's seiyuu, is best known for her archetypal [[Genki Girl]] performances. Here, she's playing a painfully shy and softspoken lass. Likewise, Chieko Honda's previous Gundam role was [[Genki Girl]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|Elpeo Puru]] which is in stark contrast to [[Broken Bird|Ennil El]].
** Let's not forget that the person who voiced Carris Nautilus - [[Yuko Mizutani]] - went on to voice [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2|Excellen Browning]].
** And Garrod Ran's voice actor [[Wataru Takagi]] plays against type, too. He usually plays the [[Big Guy]] in other anime he's casted in.
* [[Psychic Powers]]: And then goes on to {{spoiler|debunk the concept of Newtypes being THE next step of humanity's evolution in the last episode}}.
** {{spoiler|Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't DOME say that Newtypes were '''A''' possible evolution of humanity, but not '''THE''' next evolution of humanity?}}
Line 111 ⟶ 112:
* [[Psycho for Hire]]: In a twist, the Estard arc (eps. 25-28) sees the Frosts sending psychotic Newtype candidates against the Freeden; while they already work for the New UNE, they're promised a two-rank promotion if they destroy the Double X. Also somewhat crosses into [[Monster of the Week]].
* [[Razor Floss]]: [[Weapon of Choice]] of Dweyt Langraf in episode 27.
* [[Redemption Equals Death]]: {{spoiler|Katokk Alzamille, having finally stopped blaming Jamil and newtypes for the death of his family, even though he long knew they were long dead by the time Jamil shot the colony, helps the crew of the Freeden escape from the imprisonment he got them into and assists Garrod in capturing the Gundam XX. Naturally he dies taking a bunch of bullets for them.}}.
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: Toshiyuki Morikawa (Shagia) and Nozomu Sasaki (Olba) often play either best friends or brothers.
** Morikawa (Shagia Frost) also worked with Yuko Mizutani (Carris Nautilus). They had worked together before in ''[[Tekkaman Blade]]'', and would end up working together again in [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2]].
