{{tropelist}}
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Tobikage has a tendency to show up whenever the heroes are getting whupped
* [[Dub Name Change]]: Crosses over with [[Name's the Same]] when Tobikage is called [[Transformers|Cybertron]].
* [[Ear Worm]]: Both the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLgumE3Kq8o Japanese] and the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fr3YZ0jCOc English] OPs use the same Ear Worm-y tune
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: (Princess Romina
* [[Foe Yay]]: Between Joe and Irubora.
* [[Forgotten Superweapon]]: The Golden robot combines with Tobikage to form an agile, hyperactive lion most often, while the Scarlet robot combines a few times to create an eagle formation that flies slowly and casts fire over a long length. We don't, however, catch the blue robot combining to form a dragon that unleashes large lightning storms, more than twice.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: You might recognise [[Kazuhiko Inoue|Hatake]] [[Naruto|Kakashi]] as Joe Maya, [[Gunbuster|Noriko Takaya]] as Reni Ai, [[Giant Robo|Gin Rei]] as Princess Romina, and [[Tenchi Muyo!|Tenchi Masaki]]/[[Ah! My Goddess|Keiichi Morisato]] as Mike Coil. [[Gun X Sword|The Claw Man]] is Irubora/Icelander. [[Naruto|Jiraiya]] is Gurasan. The list goes on.
* [[Highly-Visible Ninja]]: Partly subverted with the ninjas from the hidden ninja village, except they're a tourist attraction. Played straight in that the robots are mostly ninja themed.
* [[Human Aliens]]: The Rodarians and Zaboom.
* [[Karma Houdini]]: Played ''so very nearly'' straight with Hazard Pasha. He gets his at the very end, but everything else up until then is a mild inconvenience.
* [[Large Ham]]: Hazard Pasha. Boy howdy, is he.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: Annex Zaboom. Hazard Pasha.
* [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|Ninja Robots]]: [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]].
* [[Obviously Evil]]: Annex Zaboom has pale skin and black eyes, and his minions are also pale of complexion.
* [[Out of Order]]: When the series aired in Australia a block of about half a dozen episodes were televised out of order. This was particularly obvious because it skipped the introduction of a major character. This alternative ordering of the episodes was repeated on the DVD.
* [[Reassigned to Antarctica|Reassigned To Mars]]: The reason why Hazard Pasha wants to get back at the Earth Union.
* [[Smug Snake]] Hazard Pasha, so very very much.
* [[Stripperific]]: Jenny Ai
* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]]: (Reni/Leni is problematic. The dub avoids this issue by calling her Jenny. Of course, the dub makes OTHER changes too.
* [[Stock Footage]]: Nearly half the animation, including ''all sequences''. ''Two whole clip episodes'' were only stock footage!
* [[Super Robot Wars]]:Appears in the [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2|Compact 2 Trilogy and Super Robot Wars: Impact]]
* [[The Red Planet]]: Where the first several episodes were set.
* [[The Song Remains the Same]]: Averted in the English language dub. The original Japanese theme was a silly love song. The English language dub not only changed the instrumental backing, but also changed the lyrics to something awesomely heroic- about Ninjas. 
* [[Transforming Mecha|Transforming]] [[Combining Mecha|Combiner]] [[Humongous Mecha|Mecha]]
* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]: Princess Romina, doubles as a [[Woman in White]] and a [[Badass Princess]].
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Jenny has blue, and this counts for other characters too.
