** Ohta at one points, after his labor is disabled, gets Harumi's help to lift the labor-sized revolver up to take a shot at the Griffon labor. It's heavier than they are put together and almost as big as Ohta. He only fires one shot from it and it almost kills them both--but he hit it where he needed to!

* DeconReconSwitch: In the second movie, every time that mecha go up against real life war machines like tanks and helicopters, they get annihilated. However, the movie still ends with a mecha battle between bipedal bots and SpiderTanks.

Moving character specific tropes to the character page . . . Well, some of them.

* ActionGirl: Noah, Kanuka and Takeo--both in and out of a labor. Noah is less a badass out of her labor than in, but she's the only one who can last more than 3 seconds against Takeo in Judo. She lasts 8. And Noah also defeated a criminal who was armed with a knife, she only used her bare hands.

* BrotherChuck: Clancy is never seen or heard from again in the OAV1/Movie-verse after the final battle between Alphonse & Zero. {{Fanon}} has it that she was killed by shrapnel from the shotgun blast Noah used to take out Zero, but that doesn't seem to fit the cheerful mood the rest of the team displays as the rescue choppers come to pick them up at the end. Then again, they never did seem to like her very much...
