Line 9:
Apparently, the first episode alone [[Jossed]] about 50% of all the [[Epileptic Trees]] that ''[[Mai-Otome Zwei]]'' somehow didn't Joss... And then episode two Jossed about 20% more.

----
* [[A Twinkle in Thethe Sky]]: (Lena does this to Shirou in episode 2).▼
== Provides examples of: ==
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: Bruce, also a [[Badass Normal]] and one of the few males in the series that the fanbase has actually liked all the way through.
▲* [[A Twinkle in The Sky]] (Lena does this to Shirou in episode 2).
* [[BadassBarrier LongcoatMaiden]]: (Bruce,{{spoiler|Sifr alsoturns aout [[Badassto Normal]]be andone, being one of the few males in the series that the fanbase haspeople actuallywho likedcan alluse the waylost through)technology.}}
* [[Battle Butler]]: (Lena initially appears as this to Bruce).▼
* [[Barrier Maiden]] ({{spoiler|Sifr turns out to be one, being one of the few people who can use the lost technology}})
* [[Beam -O -War]]: (mostly avoided until the last part of the Lena/M-9 battle).▼
▲* [[Battle Butler]] (Lena initially appears as this to Bruce)
* [[BFS]]: (The Sword of Akatsuki makes its first appearance in episode 3... At [[Humongous Mecha]] proportions.)▼
▲* [[Beam O War]] (mostly avoided until the last part of the Lena/M-9 battle)
▲* [[BFS]] (The Sword of Akatsuki makes its first appearance in episode 3... At [[Humongous Mecha]] proportions.)
* [[Big No]]
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: (Subverted: Miyu shows up to bail Elliot out during the battle with M9-R in episode 2, but winds up with a sword through the chest for her trouble. Lena plays it completely straight in episode 3, helping save Raquel and Elliot on the space station.)
* [[Bokukko]]: (Elliot).
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: (<s>Mayol</s> Raquel and Shion, [[Alternate Continuity]] versions of characters from ''[[MaiMy-HiME]] Destiny''; and {{spoiler|Ayane's Robe, the Lofty Crimson Jade, used by Lena no less.}})
* [[Cast Full of Gay]]: (more precisely, Cast (almost) Full Of Lesbian, but this is a case of situational sexuality.)
* [[Clothing Damage]]: (a few times on Lena, in one case it's actually a ''plot point''.)
* [[Continuity Nod]]: (Monica's death flashback, Nina cat, "Lena Yumemiya", Bruce's dinner coat, 'John Smith' as an apparent codename, Old Man Okuzaki, Lena's squarish [[Hi ME]]HiME mark, Shirou using Arika's [[Catch Phrase]], {{spoiler|Artemis}}...)
* [[Cranial Eruption]]: (Lena gives one to Elliot in Episode 1, and one to Elliot and Racquel in the third ending).
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: (fromFrom the original TV series, and actually managed to pull it off well.)
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]: (Sifr.)
* [[Doppelganger Attack]]: (Lena in the finale.)
* [[Expy]]: (Sifr's mannerisms, dreams and overall personality are very similar to Arika's, and Lena herself is an Expy of Rena Yuuki from ''[[Future GPX Cyber Formula (Anime)|Future GPX Cyber Formula]]: Road to the Infinity 2'', which had character designs by Hirokazu Hisayuki, the director of ''S.ifr'').
* [[Episode Zero: theThe Beginning]]: The title. [[Bilingual Bonus|In Arabic]], ''sifr'' means "zero".
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better Withwith Princesses]]: (Sifr technically, as well Ares' Otome Sakura.)
* [[Fan Service]]: (quite a bit, but it doesn't detract from the plot like in Zwei).
* [[Fashionable Asymmetry]]: (Sifr's evening gown, with one covered shoulder and one bared).
* [[Fire -Breathing Diner]]: (Interesting variation: Bruce drinks something and intentionally spews out flames to act as a distraction)
* [[Flung Clothing]]: (Lena casting aside her disguise to reveal her Meister uniform).
* [[Gainaxing]]: (Mostly on Lena).
* [[Generation Xerox]]: (Inverted -- Sifr and Lena's daughters are a lot like them, but Arika and Nina are most like the one who's ''not'' their mother).
* [[Identical Grandson]]: (Sakura looks almost exactly like Ayane, who is presumably her ancestor).
* [[Incest Is Relative]]: ({{spoiler|Sifr and Bruce are apparently cousins.}})
* [[In the Blood]] {{spoiler|(The Composer's power.)}}
* [[Kill Sat]]: (Schwartz gets their hands on one somehow in episode 3)
* [[King Incognito]]: (Bruce seems to be this, though a later episode shows he's actually still a prince).
* [[Literal Ass -Kicking]]: (Lena in {{spoiler|episode 3 dishes these out to the Columns who oppose her and threaten Sifr.}})
* [[Mecha -Mooks]]: (An army of them awaits on the space station).
* [[Mega Manning]]: (M-9's power).
* [[Meganekko]]: (two of them, Lena and Shion. In the second episode all three of the girls with Bruce dress up with maid outfits and glasses, and Elliot even gets [[Catgirl|cat ears]]).
* [[Meteor Move]]: (Lena's signature finishing move).
* [[My Hero Zero]]: (Obviously).
* [[Naked First Impression]]: (Twice with Lena and Shirou. The first time it's an almost naked first impression and she's unconscious, but once she wakes up it's a more proper one, with her being naked except for a few bandages) .
* [[Ninja]]
* [[Parental Issues]]: (Lena and her mother apparently have not spoken since her graduation six months before the start, as her mother thought she wasn't suited to become an Otome. Lena, however, gets a letter from her mother, which indicates they reconciled).
* [[Phlebotinum Breakdown]]
* [[Rebellious Princess]]: (Sifr, though she's only technically a princess.)
* [[Rescue Romance]]: (triple! Bruce to Sifr, Lena to Sifr, and {{spoiler|Shiro to Lena.}})
* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]: (Used comedically on Lena).
* [[Sci -Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale]]: (in episode 3 a battle in space results in the Otome bouncing around between the space station, an asteroid belt, and ''the moon'' in a matter of seconds).
** It's either that or this was completely intentional. Among other things, Lena blocks a laser strong enough to melt a mountain before materializing and cleaves an asteroid in half, with a BFS created either from [[Hammerspace]] or basically nothing, compared to that stuff, reaching the velocities necessary to move around like that isn't that hard.
* [[Schizo -Tech]]: (in the same episode a rotary-style phone, 1930s era headset in a case and a bluetooth earpiece all appear).
* [[Self -Destruct Mechanism]]: ({{spoiler|The Schwartz space station}})
* [[Shoot the Dog]]: (Elliot is ordered by the head of Garderobe to {{spoiler|kill Sifr if she falls into enemy hands. Una and the other three Columns then move to eliminate Sifr themselves.}})
* [[Sizeshifter]]: (Lena sort of does this in the finale, projecting a giant version of herself to wield her [[BFS]].)
* [[Sneezing]]: (Sakura, in response to the crew of the Five Columns' ship mentioning her).
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: (thanks to Doremi, Lena will forever be known by the incorrect spelling "Rena").
* [[Superpower Lottery]]: (Lena proves that she is the all-time biggest winner throughout episode 3, capping it off by single-handedly defeating ''four'' Otome at once.)
* [[Talking Is a Free Action]]
* [[Traintop Battle]]: (In the beginning of the first episode).
* [[We Help the Helpless]]: (the Earl Church, apparently).
* [[Whip Sword]]: (Una's weapon).
* [[Wrestler in All of Us]]: (Lena cinches her victory over M-9 in the final episode with a Reverse Gory Special Bomb... '''[[Rule of Cool|From space all the way down to Earth]]'''.)
