MD Geist was an experimental [[Super Soldier]] known as an MDS (most dangerous soldier) locked away in suspended animation on a satellite hovering over the planet Jerra. After making his escape, Geist is involved in a few violent skirmishes in which he slaughters everyone who has attacked him in a spectacular, over-the-top fashion, before being recruited by a group of Commandos and asked to go with those commandos to Brain Palace to prevent the Death Force from being released. Once the mission has been completed, Geist decides that he will release the Death Force himself upon the hapless citizens of Jerra.
Line 10:
There were also two [[OEL Manga|OEL Mangas]] written partly by Koichi Ohata himself. The first one was a vastly [[Adaptation Expansion|expanded]] adaptation of the first OVA while ''Ground Zero'' was a [[Prequel]], showing Geist's very first assignement and why he was locked away on a satellite.

* [[The Abridged Series]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/user/thehawkcbm?feature=mhee MDA Geist: Most Dangerous Abridged ] ''
* [[A God Am I]] - This happens in the sequel where the antagonist/[[Villain Protagonist|villain protagonist]] MD Krauser displays extraordinary combat abilities when fighting the Death Force wearing angel-like armor. He is looked up to as a savior of humanity and is thus worshiped like a god. In his own words: "In their eyes it is certainly true. I have become a god incarnate..."
Line 34 ⟶ 32:
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]] - "MD" stands for "Most Dangerous" and the self-replicating robot swarm is named Death Force.
* {{spoiler|[[Never Found the Body]]}} - {{spoiler|Done twice in the sequel. Once after Krauser throws Geist off a building, and after the credits, only Geist's helmet is shown.}}
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]!- [[Norio Wakamoto]] is Geist himself in the 1986 version. He got [[The Other Darrin|darrin'd]] later by [[Kazuhiro Nakata]], who would reprise the role in Death Force.
** Speaking of Death Force, Vaiya is portrayed by none other than.....''[[Rika Fukami|Sailor Venus]]''. Hard to believe huh?
* [[Off-Model]] - The series is quite possibly the poster child Anime for this Trope.
* [[Only Sane Man]] - In the sequel, MD Krauser claims he is this saying that he was the only MDS who could control himself because only he had normal judgment. He contrasts himself to Geist whom he claims was "an absolute failure and an insane beast incapable of controlling himself." Then again, he tends to show violent outbursts as he happened to be explaining all this while grabbing a guy's face. [[Unreliable Narrator|Not to mention, he seems to be nutcase on power trip.]] Plus, [[Darkness
** To be fair, Geist's entire motivation is that he's an asshole. Krauser, as unstable as he is, is a fair margin better than that.
* [[Powered Armor]] - Worn by Jerran soldiers, and a black one is doned by Geist after he acquires it from a dead soldier. In the sequel, they can fly and Krauser wears a white colored armor.
Line 46 ⟶ 44:
* [[Sliding Scale of Silliness Versus Seriousness]] - Very, very serious, despite the [[Narm|horrible acting]]; some people feel it should have taken itself less seriously whereas others prefer its extremely high level of seriousness.
* [[Super Soldier]]
* [[Trauma
* [[Villain Protagonist]] - Geist is either this or a [[Sociopathic Hero]]. You can make a case for MD Krauser in the sequel too; he's the designated villain, but at least he's "less evil" than Geist and there are points where the OVA suggests "shifting protagonistim" onto him..
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: MD Krauser has good intentions (more or less) but he's still not much better than MD Geist, if at all.
