Line 7:
* [[Badass Normal]]: The Chimera Corps was very much this by design. As Kycilia wanted a force capable of handily confronting Newtypes in battle.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: To various UC works. And as the story progresses, ''[[Char's Counterattack]]''.
* [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: Subverted with Johnny Ridden. While he was very much respected in his prime, he always seemed to be overshadowed by the Red Comet himself, Char Aznable.
* [[The Dreaded]]: "Vasuki," the Federation ace in charge of Task Force "Knight Yeager," has this air about him. {{spoiler|He's revealed to be [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Yazan Gable]].}}
* [[Elaborate Underground Base]]: Jaburo, though the manga deconstructs this. Mainly by highlighting how thanks to [[Minovsky Particle]]s' communications-jamming and electronics-scrambling properties and the nature of UC-era conflict, the idea of having this at all proved to be one of the major reasons why the Federation couldn't end the OYW sooner.
Line 12 ⟶ 13:
* [[Interquel]]: The story is set in-between ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ]]'' and ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack]].''
* [[Merchandise-Driven]]: Played with. While the manga in general is connected to the ''Mobile Suit Variations R'' series and showcases a number of mecha (as well as model kit) designs, it's generally well-integrated into the plot.
* [[Mildly Military]]: Justified by the FSS not being a formal military unit.
* [[Multinational Team]]: Of sorts, as the FSS welcomes people from the Republic of Zeon and other space colonies.
* [[Posthumous Character]]: Kycilia Zabi by this point has been dead for over 10 years, but her presence continues to loom heavily over the plot.
* [[Private Military Contractors]]: They're revealed to still exist in the Universal Century. Among the more notable ones being P.M.C. Themis, comprised of ex-EFSF, ex-Zeon and even ex-Titans personnel {{spoiler|and run by a member of the Chimera Corps who may know more than he lets on}}.
* [[The Untwist]]: It's all but stated outright that Led Wayline {{spoiler|''is'' an amnesiac Johnny Ridden}}.
