* [[Accidental Innuendo]] (Put Excellen Browning at the controls of the Alt Eisen if you get a chance and use the Revolver Stake. [[Hilarity Ensues]])
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]] (Any mention of a new SRW and its [[Original Generation]] to be included in the next, inevitable sequel/GaidenGame or anyone from this series appearing in other games; ''[[Another CenturysCentury's Episode|Another Century's Episode R]]'' being the latest, as Kyosuke Nanbu, Masaki, and Ryusei Date appear with the Alt Eisen Riese, Cybuster and ART-1, respectively)
** With the announcement of ''[[Anime of the Game|Super Robot Wars Original Generation: The Inspector]]'' (based on the second game), fans met the news with grumbling, as the previous ''Super Robot Wars Original Generation: Divine Wars'', a re-telling of the first game, left a sour taste in the mouths of many. However, that the writer of the ''Record of ATX'' side-story manga was doing the script and Masami Obari was onboard as the director was met with some pleasantry, along with the fact that the use of CGI robots was planned to be kept to a minimum.
** The announcement of ''The 2nd Original Generation'' and it's cast list, which includes [[Super Robot Wars Destiny|Joshua Radcliff]] voiced by none other than "I LOVE YOU GUNDAM" [[Yuuichi Nakamura]], and Ariel Org from Real Robot Regiment. Probably more later when Cliana Rimskaya was announced... with the voice of [[Houko Kuwashima]] ([[Clannad (Visualvisual Novelnovel)||Tomoyo]]) to match.
** Then inverted when it's stated that the game will be delayed for dates unknown... the fandom let out a [[Big No]]
** Seems to be going back on rejoicing with new batch of info lately, ''especially'' with JakuBuOh and BuJakuOh finally making a VG appearance.
Line 16:
** The main theme ("The Super Robot Wars") is pretty epic, even. So Crowning Music of Awesome really ''is'' [[Incredibly Lame Pun|part of the menu]].
* [[Even Better Sequel]], [[Surprisingly Improved Sequel]] (Compared to OG1, OG2 had some of the best visuals on the [[Game Boy Advance]] (pre-[[Super Robot Wars Judgment]]), backed by greater pilot/mecha/[[Weapon of Choice|weapon customization]], an even larger cast and a deeper, engaging plot than its predecessor)
** [[Sequel Escalation]] (The first deals with [[Civil War]] and an extraterrestrial invasion. OG2 throws in the first again, but adds in an [[Alternate Universe]] faction deciding to perform [[War for Fun Andand Profit]] and an [[Eldritch Abomination]] bent on commiting a Class-X [[Apocalypse How]])
** OG 3 is looking up to be this.
* [[Epileptic Trees]] (How Kai got the infamous Gespenst Kick: either he's been teaching Lenonjayce in Original Generation or he's his future instructor...if Jayce ever appears...
Line 22:
** (The "Twelve Keys" Dark Brain seeks: are they the same as the "12 Spheres" in Z?)
* [[Fan Nickname]] (The GS in the sequel are being called the Not-Titans, due to their similarites from the story discription to the Titans in [[Zeta Gundam]]. The Not-Titans were even speculated '''even before the game was announced'''. Of course, everyone saw them coming from a mile away due to the set up of a Federation [[Civil War]] in the previous games with the way the Feddie government was heading.)
* [[Fan -Preferred Couple]] (Is it my eyes or do many [[Fan Art]] really show [[Crack Pairing|Axel and Lamia]], [[Ho Yay|Axel and Kyosuke]] and {{spoiler|[[Screw Yourself|Villeta and Ingram]]}}?
** Justified, at least on Axel's side, who had plenty of "[[Say My Name|BEOWULF!!]]" crying so much, it may qualify as..
*** [[Catch Phrase]] (Where it induces just enough [[Ho Yay]])
** Got it: [https://web.archive.org/web/20200807233102/http://www.daitrombe.net/image/tag?page=2&tag=ingram+ prisken AT DAITROMBE!!!]
** And the most <s>striking</s> squicky one? They have an adopted [https://web.archive.org/web/20091124094738/http://daitrombe.net/image/show/20554 son]...in the form of {{spoiler|Cobray}}...
** Axel/Kyosuke is actually lent a bit of weight by the fact that some of the dialog when the two fight each other implies that Kyosuke's counterpart from Axel's home universe is gay.
*** Not...really. It implies that Kyosuke doesn't have a female companion of any sort, since Excellen isn't in the [[S Mverse]] and Beowulf obviously isn't going to have much in the way of friends. This is just a [[Yaoi Fangirl]] interpretation running wild.
* [[Fetish Fuel]]: [http://i54.tinypic.com/vcwh7o.jpg Alfimi and Excellen fanservice] brought to us by the animators themselves.
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]]: Lamia might've been one since Advance, but she takes this [[Up to Eleven]].
* [[Magnificent Bastard]], [[Manipulative Bastard]] (Abound)
* [[Memetic Badass]]: Elzam
Line 35 ⟶ 36:
* [[Memetic Mutation]] (This game is definitely the origin of Trombe over [http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=pYsz3ytMQ3Y here])
** Don't forget the legendary "Real Men Ride Each Other!"
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20141217024901/http://Daitrombedaitrombe.net/ A website] named after Dytrombe/Daitrombe, just as TROMBE-d indeed!
*** Daitrombe.net - override ALL Super Robot Wars song/music! ...and images/manga/lyrics
** Also, Lee sparked a minor SRW exclusive meme called NADUHA, which he earned more and more of for his douchebaggery. NADUHA means {{spoiler|Needs a Drill Up His Ass!}}
*** Requires a little elaboration: {{spoiler|1=he doesn't get one up his ass so much as up his face, when he tries to ram Tetsuya in OG2...who's in the Kurogane. [[This Is a Drill]], In case you'd forgotten, as the Kurogane has a gigantic drill on the bow}}.
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: OG Gaiden provides one, in particular a segment of Ryusei and Mai gaining a combo attack, which is then followed by {{spoiler|the return of ODE and a surviving Lamia at helm once again and Duminuss got her to completely demoralize the team}} and Kyosuke fell into another [[Heroic BSOD]]... and then we switch into Rai getting fed up on Ryusei's attack-naming tendencies and ''[[Shout -Out|Galaxy]] [[Saint Seiya|Phantom]] [[Not So Above It All|Explosion]]''
* [[Moral Event Horizon]] (Some like Archibald and Agilla really stay FAR on the other side)
** Lee crosses it when he {{spoiler|kills Daitetsu}}. He was a [[Jerkass]] before that, too
** Juergen crosses it when he {{spoiler|shoots a defenseless Lamia and makes the team think he killed her}}. It's more than agreed that by that point, any sympathy he might have had in the OVA's lost and after his demise, he'll forever be cemented as an unsympathetic [[Big Bad Wannabe]].
** ( {{spoiler|Within the first minute of ''The Inspector'', Beowulf kills a defeated Ryusei by [[Impaled Withwith Extreme Prejudice]]}})
* [[That One Boss]] (Plentiful; the number one, however, would have to be Dark Brain in OG Gaiden, who's currently THE KING in the ENTIRE franchise)
* [[Tear Jerker]] The Inspector's version of Cattleya's {{spoiler|and Daitetsu's}} death is a lot harder hitting than the Original Generation 2 version.
