{{Needs More Info}}
----
This film contains examples of the following:
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Toto conveniently crashing into Zedus before the latter could devour Toru's Dad and Katsuya.
* [[A Boy and His X]]: Toru and Toto.
* [[Breath Weapon]]: Initially, Toto can only burp little bursts of fire, but by the end of the movie he can launch full-powered fireballs.
* [[Combat Tentacles]]: Zedus can extend his tongue to great lengths and repeatedly uses it to impale Toto.
* [[ReContinuity BootReboot]]: A good one, but it sadly landed as a dud at the box office.
* [[Giant Flyer]]: Toto.
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: The adult Gamera in the prologue blows himself up to kill several attacking Gyaos. The possibility of Toto doing this to stop Zedus is also a fairly major plot point.
Line 17 ⟶ 18:
* [[Mythology Gag]]: While exploring Kousuke Aizawa's kitchen, Toto is nearly hit by a dropped knife and breathes fire on it in retaliation. The knife is a reference to the knife-headed monster Guiron, from the Showa era.
* [[Plot Hole]]: At the end of the movie, during the final fight with Zedus, Toto being able to fly and shoot fireballs is treated as a big deal, as though he has finally become a fully-grown Gamera... Except that he was able to do both of those things as a tiny little pet turtle at the start of the movie.
* [[Plot -Relevant Age -Up]]: In the space of a week, Toto grows from a cute little turtle to a cute house-sized turtle.
* [[Reconstruction]]: Sort of. It returns to the Showa era's focus on children, but combines it with the Heisei era's tone and good writing.
* [[Sea Monster]]: Zedus just kind of shows up out of the ocean one day. The first scene which foreshadows him is rather ''[[Jaws (Filmfilm)|Jaws]]''-esque.
* [[Re Boot]]: A good one, but it sadly landed as a dud at the box office.
* [[Shout -Out]]: [[Keroro Gunsou]] - Toru has to remain polite to Mai in order to borrow issues from her.
* [[Sea Monster]]: Zedus just kind of shows up out of the ocean one day. The first scene which foreshadows him is rather ''[[Jaws (Film)|Jaws]]''-esque.
* [[Shout Out]]: [[Keroro Gunsou]] - Toru has to remain polite to Mai in order to borrow issues from her.
* [[Those Two Guys]]: Ishimaru and Katsuya, Toru's friends.
