Overman King Gainer: Difference between revisions

Line 88:

** Even more to the point, Asuham's whole "for my sister's honor" thing is very obviously an excuse to cover for his crippling inferiority complex and jealousy of Gain's skills, freedom, etc. This is hammered home when his sister shows up at the end and reveals to the audience that she got over Gain ages ago. Finding out how useless he is in the grand scheme of things, and how pathetic affairs of the world have gotten (as well as the general loopiness of the series and atmosphere) kinda has him go more and more off the deep-end as the series progresses, from a somewhat suave Char-esque expy to a raving lunatic and omnicidal, Freudian-Excuse driven maniac.

* [[Ms. Fanservice]] (Adette.)

* [[My God, What Have I Done?]] (Cynthia's freakout when she finds out that [[This Is Reality]] and that smacking around King Gainer causes Gainer himself to actually get hurt.)

** Reinforced in the next episode, when she realizes why her classmates disappeared.

* [[Oh God, Did She Just Hear That?|Oh God, Did He Just Hear That?]] (Kashmir's Overman Planeta's Overskill. Gainer makes it backfire by simply ''telling'' him about what's on his mind most of all... [[Love Interest|Sara]].) [[Hilarity Ensues|The entire Exodus just so happens to hear it.]]

:This gets played for greater laughs in ''[[Super Robot Wars Z]]'', where Gainer is joined by {{spoiler|[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Shinn Asuka]] (declaring his desire to protect peace and NOT his love of Lunamaria, [[Epic Fail|to the latter's disappointment]]), [[After War Gundam X|Garrod Ran]] (declaring his love for Tiffa), [[Orguss|Kei Katsuragi]] ([[Loveable Sex Maniac|declaring his love for ALL the female characters up to that point]]), [[Xabungle|Jiron Amos]] (declaring his love for...[[Completely Missing the Point|his favorite food, lizard stew]]), and the chosen protagonist (either Rand or Setsuko).}} And it works!

* [["On the Next Episode of..." Catchphrase]]: "Overheat!" {{spoiler|Doubles as [[Foreshadowing]].}}
