* [["Wake-Up Call" Boss]]:
* [[Wake Up Call Boss]]: ''6'' has not one but two. A PCA Heavy Combat Helicopter at the end of the tutorial serves to make the player aware that this game isn't a mindless spamming experience and check whether the player's been paying attention to the instructions and hints given up to that point. Balteus at the end of the first chapter further checks that the player didn't just get this far on beginner's luck.
** ''For Answer'' has White Glint, who is notorious for chewing through newbies to the game, using its overwhelming speed to dodge all of their attacks.

* [[We Will Spend Credits in the Future]]: Interestingly, only Stateside editions use "Credits". Japanese versions use COAM instead; short of COmpany Assured Money<ref>An Engrishy translation of ?????? (Kigyo Hoshu Tsuka)</ref>.

* [[Weak Butbut Skilled]] -
** ''Verdict Day'' has '''you''' {{spoiler|fight a NEXT in the final battle using only a Normal. In other words, he has the equipment the player did in ''4'' and ''For Answer'', while you're in the kind of machine that's not even a speed bump in those games.}}
** ''6'' has {{spoiler|the original Raven.}} His AC, should you recreate it, is almost identical to [[With This Herring|your starter AC Loader 4]] - unimpressive, crappy even. Nevertheless, you first encounter him after he's singlehandedly defeated a numerically and technologically-superior PCA force. Fight him, and while he's not on par with the toughest bosses, he is still very much able to make you regret taking him lightly.
