Line 2: * [[Crazy Awesome]]: Tabane Shinonono * [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Honne Nohotoke, a side-character that appeared in the anime in Pikachu-esque pajamas, appears to have gained quite a following for someone with a less than a minute of screentime. * [[Fan Nickname]]: Some people call this series as "Country Wars" because it reminds them of [[Ichiban Ushiro no ~~Daimaou~~Dai Maou\|Color Wars.]] A large number of people simply like to refer to the girls by the country they represent. Cecilia and Bri-tan is the most original it can get. A lesser but still well-known nickname coined by /a/ would be [[Charlie and ~~The~~the Chocolate Factory\|Ichika And The Jelly Factory.]] <ref> Jelly in this case would mean [[Clingy Jealous Girl\|jealous.]]</ref> * [[Fan -Preferred Couple]]: {{spoiler\|Charlotte}}/Ichika. Many fans argue that it would be refreshing for a harem hero to end up with a sweet, gentle and kind girl rather than yet ANOTHER violent, domineering, inconsiderate, selfish and emotionally insincere tyrant (which is unfortunately EVERY other girl in the harem) for a change. ** Oddly, Laura is also sweet, gentle, and kind. That girl didn't get [[Defrosting Ice Queen\|defrosted]] so much as transmuted into hot lava. * [[Follow The Leader]]: The popularity of ''Infinite Stratos'' spawned the "harem mecha musume" genre. ''Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle'' and ''Hundred'' are very similar while ''Hybrid x Heart Magias Academia Ataraxia'' is a much spicier example that many describe as "''Infinite Stratos'' but done right" when it comes to the fanservice. * [[Ho Yay]]: Ichika and Charles seem close, and a lot of the Academy girls love it. {{spoiler\|No one minds however when Charlotte reveals her gender.}} [[Les Yay]]: Laura comes in sounding ''really'' gay for Orihime-sensei. Line 16 ⟶ 17: Also, post anything about Charles{{spoiler\|/Charlotte}} and [[It Makes Sense in Context\|windows]]. Guaranteed replies complete with [[White Knighting]] ''with pictures''. "France-tan is best-tan!" and "Char is special..." [[Rhymes Onon a Dime\|Houki Pouki]] thanks to Houki ''launching Ichika in the air'' with a kick. ** /a/ is now Infinite Str/a/tos after moot allegedly confessed to liking [[Infinite Stratos]] on the boards. * [[Moe]]: '''[[Ho Yay\|Charles]]''' and Laura after her [[Defrosting Ice Queen\|meltdown]]. Also, [[Sensei ~~Chan~~-chan]] Maya. * [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]]: Byakkushiki {{spoiler\|upgrading to Setsura. No [[Transformation Sequence]], no nothing.}} It's pretty jarring to say the least. * [[One True Threesome]]: The fact that Charlotte and Laura are extremely friendly to each other has led to some portions of their fanbases proposing this solution. * [[Ship -to -Ship Combat]]: It's an [[Unwanted Harem]] with [[Powered Armor]], it's to be expected. * [[Shout -Out]]: Some of the I.S. suits including their weapons, coloration, and names are a shout out to [[Gundam]] and [[Super Robot Wars]]. Ichika's Byakushiki (Type-White) is shout-out to a white re-painted version of Char's [[Zeta Gundam\|Hyakushiki]] (Type-100) that appeared in ''Gunpla Builders Beginning G''. It so happens that said repaint is also called [http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/gunpla/msn-00100-gpb.htm Byakushiki]. In episode seven, there's a list of representatives who are going to watch the tournament. [http://i55.tinypic.com/28ti4g9.jpg One of them] is [[The Office\|Michael Scott]]. Line 28 ⟶ 29: Rafale Revive? Are we sure it's not really called [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2\|Alt Eisen?]] * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5T0-SyZmLqY After dat revolver stake? Yes.] Episode 9 is called [[~~Oceans~~Ocean's Eleven]] Laura's IS is primarily black with red and yellow/gold trim. Wonder why she [[Super Robot Wars Original Generation\|hadn't overridden anyone's theme song yet]]. Charles{{spoiler\|/Charlotte's}} new nickname is [[Mobile Suit Gundam\|Char]] given by Ichika. [[Ace Pilot\|Fitting considering what]] they did in the previous episode. Kind of hilarious considering that the [[Kouki Uchiyama\|seiyuu of Ichika]] has [[Gundam Unicorn\|another character]] who has a [[Char Clone]] as an enemy. Episode 10 is called [[The Thin Red Line]]. In episode 11, Houki and Ichika's [[Out -of -Clothes Experience]] wouldn't be much of a [[Shout -Out]] by itself. Unless you watched the third episode of ''[[Gundam Unicorn]]'' and realize that Ichika and Banagher [[Actor Allusion\|have the same seiyuu.]] The preview of episode 12 has a similar thing that happens with [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]. All it lacks is the "Congratulations" scene. * [[~~So Okay Its Average\|~~So Okay It's Average]]: YMMV of course, but the show really doesn't break any ground with the Harem tropes. * [[What an Idiot!]]: Probably in the name of [[Fan Service]], but episode seven has one jarring moment. Ichika and {{spoiler\|Charlotte}} need to change their clothes. '''You'd Expect''': One can just change in the bathroom inside their own room, and the other can just change in the bedroom. * Not to mention the partition Houki used to change behind when they were roomies ''mere episodes before''.
