Line 17:
* [[Bounty Hunter]]: AEGIS employs 'Invader Hunters', who may or may not be Gatekeepers (those who aren't use Imitation Gates) and pays them according to the number of invader crystals they collect.
* [[Buddy Cop Show]]: Ayane and Miu ([[Student and Master Team]] variation).
* [[Continuity Nod]]: When Ayane and Miyu launch the [[Cool Car|UP-15]] from the [[Self -Destruct Mechanism|self-destructing]] AEGIS base, Yukino does the "Ooh, intense!" thing that accompanied AEGIS vehicle launches in the original series. No [[Panty Shot|Panty Shots]], though.
* [[Cool Shades]]: Kageyama
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: In ''[[Gate Keepers]]'', you had hope the [[The Power of Love]] would prevail. Here, not so much.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Kageyama, though he also happens to have [[Light 'Em Up|elemental light]] as a power, so...
* [[Demonic Invaders]]: The Invaders, natch.
* [[Demonic Possession]]: Any non-Gatekeeper humans who succumb to ''any'' dark emotion open themselves to possession by the Invaders.
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: Shun
* [[The Ditz]]: Miyu
* [[Dude, She's Like, in A Coma]]: Ayane Isuzu is kissed while comatose by [[Big Bad]] [[Stalker With a Crush]] Yuurei Shoujo, while the former's boss and partner watch helplessly.
* [[The End of the World As We Know It]]: [[Big Bad|Ghost Girl]] causes this in the [[Grand Finale]].
* [[Equivalent Exchange]]: Gates run on this. Kageyama points out the fact that most Gatekeepers have suffered some kind of trauma earlier in life. Furthermore, {{spoiler|Kageyama's own Dark Gate has, over the years, eaten most of his insides, as well as a literal arm and leg, forcing him to take extensive medication and use [[Artificial Limbs]], the reason why Yukino never ages is because her Gate has consumed her 'time', and he also speculates that Yurei Shoujo's has already consumed her entire body.}}
** {{spoiler|Ayane is afraid of being consumed by her gate, and so uses ''false gates'' until told that they simply don't have the power needed}}.
* [[EverybodysEverybody's Dead, Dave]]: Almost the entire cast from ''[[Gate Keepers]]'' die ([[Put On a Bus|or are simply written out]]) in the backstory.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Sparkles]]: Miu's Gate of Leap gives off quite a lot of them.
* [[Gratuitous English]]: "This is your power. It's a miracle!"
** GAAAYY-TOOOOHH OHHH-PUUUNN!!!
Line 43:
* [[Oddly Named Sequel]]
* [[Older and Wiser]]: Several characters from the original ''[[Gate Keepers]]'', now grown up, act as commanders, mentors, and parents to the new cast.
* [[One -Woman Wail]]: The opening theme.
* [[Our Hero Is Dead]]: At the end of episode 4 of ''[[GK 21]],'' {{spoiler|Ayane [[Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him|is shot from behind]] on the way home from killing Count Akuma.}}
* [[Parental Abandonment]]
* [[Plant Aliens]]: Count Akuma has now become this
* [[Powers As Programs]]: Advancements in technology have allowed members of AEGIS to emulate Gate power, encoding them into cell phones. This allows even non-Gatekeepers to have a fighting chance against the Invaders.
* [[Psycho Lesbian]]: Yurei Shoujo, the [[Big Bad]], ''totally'' has it in for Ayane. See [[Dude, She's Like, in A Coma]] above.
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Yukino and Yurei Shoujo.
* [[Reset Button]]: {{spoiler|The [[Grand Finale]]}}
