* [[Hot-Blooded]]: Kanade, Genjurou and his alumn Hibiki. Watch a man teach martial arts to a girl with lines like "Your fists ought to fly like hammers that hit the thunder of the bolt that strucks you!" and the girl respond "I didn't understand a word of that, but I'll try!". Same gal who yells battlecries while playing an arcade ''crane game''. |

* [[The Men in Black]]: The government agency handling the Symphogears actively keep their existance from the public eye, as they are considered a strategic resource. But their tactics are pretty nice and polite, like making witnesses sign Nondisclosure agreements. |

* [[Mistaken for Cheating]]: In what might be considered a [[Contrived Coincidence]], Miku caught Hibiki visiting the just-recently-waking-up-from-comatose Tsubasa, when Hibiki said that she needs to go somewhere else and can't go shopping with Miku. [[It Got Worse|Then things get worse.]] |

* [[Scenery Porn]] and [[Scenery Gorn]]: On both sides of the spectrum, and can change at any moment. Transitioning from a vibrant laser-show concert that ended with a sunset to a battle-stricken concert under that same sun is animated very beautifully. |

* [[Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe]]: Japan as a whole consists of the Research Facility underneath the school, at least {{spoiler|three}} Valkyries in {{spoiler|two locations}}, and (potentially) two weapons, one of them being [[BFS]] Durandal. Doesn't look like Japan will hand over Durandal to the EU, what with Episode 5's revelation that {{spoiler|Hibiki can use it as part of her song}}. |
