Line 9:
Opposing them is the Brave Express Team, lead by by the teenage industrialist Might Senpuuji. Given life by an advanced AI program, he is assisted by his own team of transforming mecha. The episodes are fairly stand-alone for the first part of the series; it isn't until Might's rival, Joe, shows up that there is really any connecting thread between the episodes. The main enemy isn't even hinted at until further on.
 
[[Sequel Displacement|Best known as]] the ''[[Gao Gai Gar|other]]'' [[Brave Series]] entry with [[Nobuyuki Hiyama]] [[Hey ItsIt's That Voice|voicing the lead character]].
----
=== Tropes used for this series: ===
Line 26:
* [[Heel Realization]]: {{spoiler|As he dies, Black Noir questions if, instead of being [[The Player]] of his game, he was actually the villain.}}
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Battle Bomber is destroyed taking an attack for Great Might Gaine.}}
* [[Hey ItsIt's That Voice]]/[[Retroactive Recognition]]: [[Nobuyuki Hiyama|Might Senpuuji]] is [[Gao Gai Gar|Guy Shishio]]. [[Sequel Displacement|You probably already knew that.]]
** What, you thought doing the voice in ''one'' [[Brave Series]] is where he got the "King of Braves" monicker?
*** Considering [[Gao Gai Gar]] is called the "King of Braves", it's not surprising.
Line 33:
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: Great Might Gaine.
* [[Impaled With Extreme Prejudice]]: {{spoiler|Exeve is killed when Joe flies Goryu's jet mode through the cockpit of his mecha, impaling him on the drill.}}
* [[Merchandise -Driven]]: Infamously deconstructed by way of [[Writer Revolt]]. {{spoiler|When the writers were on the outs with the merchandisers, the protagonists discovered that their entire world was created by a malevolent alien toy company to serve as a commercial for their toys. Cue [[Screw Destiny|epic battle to control their own fates]].}}
* [[The Rival]]: Joe. (his last name is obvious enough....)
* [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]: {{spoiler|After Guard Diver is destroyed, Might and Might Gaine go on one of these against Purple. [[It Got Worse|Battle Bomber is then destroyed]]. Maito and Great Might Gaine respond by bisecting the robot that did it, then ''killing'' Purple by blowing his battleship and army into oblivion with the [[Wave Motion Gun|Perfect Canon]]. This probably extends to Exeve and Black Noir as well.}}
Line 40:
** In the episode featuring the [[Evil Twin]], Black Might Gaine, its transformation sequence finishes off with the villain docking with it a la ''[[Mazinger Z]]''.
** Targeting method and working of internal mechanisms of Perfect Cannon show it to be not just a [[Wave Motion Gun]] but '''The''' [[Uchuu Senkan Yamato|Wave Motion Gun]].
* [[Spell My Name With an "S"]]: Might is often translated to Maito, much like how [[Gao Gai Gar|Guy]] is sometimes translated as Gai, primarily to keep consistency with how names of mecha are spelled.
* [[Star -Making Role]]: In terms of his [[Hot Blooded]] resume, Might WAS Hiyama's ''first protagonist role'' of his career. And Might , back then, was such a success, Hiyama then continues to earn roles in the package of '''one-Hero Protagontist-per-year''' for the next 6 years ''straight!''
* [[Taking You With Me]]: {{spoiler|Joe does a suicide run and flies his mecha right into Exeve's cockpit, impaling him on the drill.}}
* [[Teen Genius]]: Maito
