Line 4:
* [[Adaptation Displacement]]: Modern anime fans (on both sides of the Pacific) are more familiar with this series than either the manga or the [[Mamoru Oshii]] films.
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]: The runaway [[Walking Tank]] from the second episode. It's surprising how much empathy you can feel for a machine that resembles a giant metal spider.
* [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]]: No information is ever given about Proto in the few appearances he makes in 2nd Gig. It isn't until he {{spoiler|falls victim to an attack barrier and reveals that he's a Bio-Android prototype that we ever learn anything.}} Unfortunately, this comes near the end of the series, and really plays no part of the story, and such a detail was never hinted at or mentioned again. It may have been an [[Aborted Arc]] that somehow still got some details through, or a possible [[Sequel Hook]] for another plotline.
** There was one small hint. {{spoiler|Proto is short for Prototype.}}
* [[Complete Monster]]: Gouda.
