* BaitAndSwitchCredits: The fourth opening TitleSequence features a battle of Saya, Moses and Haji against James inside what seems to be an abandoned building. The actual fight actually happens in the streets of New York, UsefulNotes/NewYorkCity, and [[spoiler: Solomon is the one who aids Saya and Haji, since Moses died two episodes before such fight happened. James also noticeable noticeably presents his true arms (which by that time he already lost during the Christina Island fight) instead of the Schiff ones he had during the battle.]]

** The manga adaptation goes through this, too. [[spoiler: Diva dies but not before sharing a brief tender moment with Saya. Riku accepts the fact the he'll no longer be a normal person again. And just like in the anime, Saya has to hibernate for thirty years.]]

Added DiffLines:

* GunPorn: For their worthlesness against chyropterans, the amount of very well drawn and animated guns in the setting is staggering. Special mention to David's Custom Smith & Wesson .500.

The Chick is now a disambiguation, not a trope. Additionally, this seems like an old Five Man Band example that should have been purged a while ago.


* TheTeam: Red Shield becomes this notably in the later half of the series.
** TheLeader: Joel Goldschmidt IV, the descendant of the founding family of Red Shield.
** TheHero: Saya, the only one who can kill Chiropterans, the Cinqe Fleches Chivaliers, and Diva.
** [[TheLancer The Lancers]]: Haji, being Saya's only Chevalier, and David, having a serious attitude for his work.

* JustTrainWrong: The ''Siberia Express'' episode(s) - ''oh boy''. The train interior is ''absurdly spacious'', the bogeys are ''hollow/see-through''. A fight sequence takes place on the roof right under electric catenary which is positioned [[SarcasmMode "a bit higher"]] than it is in reality. Not only nobody up there recieves an instant jolt - they don't even meet a single pylon to slam them off the train. The express is apparently being hauled by an [[CriticalResearchFailure electric railcar]] but those aren't powerful enough to haul such long heavy trains. Its front crudely resembles the Czech-made [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChS2 ChS2]] locomotive.

** Diva as well. Pale pretty girl with blue eyes, wears white Victorian clothing, is an opera singer and often described as an angel. Bad side? [[spoiler:She is a century and a half old Chiropteran Queen who has killed thousands of people, participated in an experiment to create a virus to turn others into chiropterans, had figures such as Grigori Rasputin and Martin Bormann as her chevaliers, meaning she was involved in, if not being the mastermind of, the Romanov Massacre (as she also impersonated Anastasia in a manga sidestory) and WWII. Should I also mention she raped a 14-year old boy to get pregnant and then killed him, all for the sake of pissing off her sister? Also, when she sings, people turn into monsters.]]
