- Crowning Music of Awesome: The entire soundtrack, composed by Ichiko Hashimoto. Yoko Kanno did the opening theme [1]. Here it is without the Crowning Moment of Awesome action drowning it out.
- Genius Bonus: Things make more sense with knowledge of Mayan mythology and concepts.
- High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Asahina's death. Dear GOD. Kamina, piloting RahXephon, brutally beat her Dolem, crushing its arm and eventually punching a hole through it. The terrifying part? Everything the he did to the Dolem was done to her as well.
- It gets worse: throughout the ordeal, she's desperately trying to send messages to him explaining what's happening, but he's so single-mindedly fixated on destroying the Dolem that he fails to notice, all the time believing that he's protecting her.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: Ayato's claim in the first episode that he's "not interested in older women" is much more amusing on the second viewing.
- There's much, much more, actually. This anime thrives on making small conversations much more interesting with a second viewing. For example, when Ayato first visits Itsuki's place, Itsuki mentions that he should be like visiting a relatives house. Ayato replies that he's never done that. The Irony in this is that unknown to Ayato Itsuki is Ayato's clone and Quon is their biological mother.
- Moe: Haruka displays shades of this at times.
