* DoAndroidsDream: Otaru's marionettes and Faust's Saber Dolls. They have the ability to replicate human emotions and thought patterns, but they're often treated as though they're simply machines. [[spoiler:Their maiden circuits allow them to feel human emotions, but it also extends to a form of consciousness once the circuits reach full maturity.]]

Added DiffLines:

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The main dilemma of ''Saber Marionette J'' as a whole revolves around the notion that there are no females on Terra II and genetic cloning can only advance the human race to a certain point with no real evolutionary progress. Because the six survivors use recombinant DNA to create all their clones, they overlook the possibility of simply adjusting the sexual chromosome (XY to XX), which would solve the problem of limited birth options. But then that would make the plot [[spoiler: of rescuing Lorelei from inside the ''Mesopotamia'' using the maiden circuits from three lucky marionettes]] completely moot.

* LethalChef: In one episode of J, there is a cooking contest involving the Otaru's Marionettes and the Saber Dolls. The only marionette to successfully avoid this trope was Cherry (of course, being a YamatoNadeshiko and all). Lime's unpredictability and Tiger's fan-service were able to obtain points even though their cooking was obviously less than par.

* CampGay: Hanagata highly qualifies as this, mainly because of his [[StalkerWithACrush obssession]] with Otaru, which naturally annoys both Otaru himself and the [[ActionGirl Marionettes]]. Obviously, he's also used as the series' {{Comic Relief}}, among others. The following quote is one of the ''mildest'' of his rather loud declarations.
