[[Ordinary High School Student]] Keita Aono [[Falling Into the Cockpit|falls into the cockpit]] of a [[Humongous Mecha]],
On par with ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' as the darkest mecha anime of the 1990s. It shares a universe with ''[[GaoGaiGar]]'', despite the two being very, very different.▼

* [[Action Survivor]]: Keita Aono when he is not piloting the Neuronoid. Episode 8 "Poison" is a prime example as Keita is pretty much running for his life while avoiding attacks from that episode's enemies.
* [[Almost Kiss]]: There are three instances in which Keita has come close to locking lips with Hinoki.
