* How does Sul respond to the galaxy's equivalent of the AntiChrist beseeching him [[WeCanRuleTogether for an alliance?]] [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu ''By mocking him to his face,'' ]] [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech pointing out that he's not very powerful if he's relying on lesser beings.]] He then follows this up by (briefly) blowing away the bird-monster. It costs him ''dearly'' but the fact that Canaletto recognized him as a true threat to his plan says a lot.
--> '''Canaletto''': I'm offering a rare alliance. Imagine two great beings standing together. We would be magnificent.\\
'''Sul''': Alliances are for the small and weak. And if you truly ''are'' Canaletto, you will have no power here, not yet.
** Canaletto follows this up by warning Sul he's making a mistake before [[HopeSpot seemingly being banished]]. Then [[OhCrap Sul hears his laughter,]] revealing he's [[JustToyingWithThem just humoring his rival]], before banishing the most powerful being in the race to another dimension. And keep in mind, Canaletto is weakened and imprisoned. It really drives home the point that unlike the other antagonists, he is ''not'' screwing around.
--> '''Canaletto''': (chuckles) I'm not as powerless as you believe. Why did you think I brought you here?
* Just about ''everything'' about Canaletto is pure CreepyAwesome. The guy is in a cage for most of the show and has no armies or minions like any other BigBad, but he's still a truly ominous threat regardless. To put it in perspective, Satis, basically the ''God of the Universe'' in this setting, is terrified if he were to escape, and with damn good reason.

* Jordan completely [[SpannerInTheWorks blindsides]] Canaletto by sneaking close to the Pyramid of Power despite his injuries and jumping onto it, becoming the new Avatar and obliterating Canaletto with the WorldHealingWave that restores Oban. While it's a tear-jerking moment in that his sacrifice would separate him from his friends for 10,000 years, it was no doubt a fitting blow to the monster who would obliterate countless worlds just because he saw life itself as a mistake.

* The second race against Toros. Molly pushes the newly rebuilt Arrow 3 to its limits with the new hyperdrive, passing Toros... until they come to the home stretch along the beach. Toros seems to have the race won, but Molly engages the hyperdrive again, pushing the ship forward at such speeds so ludicrous that even Toros backs off. And, making it more awesome, Molly manages a perfect turn around the arena to slow down, shocking absolutely everyone. Nobody - the Scrubs, former racers, and ''especially'' not the Earth Team star-racer goes whoosh! Toros's star-racer goes crash! Nobody - can believe their eyes!

A few days later, this was followed by Yeatman-Eiffel himself [[https://twitter.com/EiffelSavin/status/836753768582680577 posting a bit of concept art]] depicting Eva Wei and Prince Aikka after a TimeSkip.

** There's a bit of soundtrack that plays during the episode "The Origin of the World" right after the race begins and the racers get their first clear view of the racetrack. It is awesome and sets the mood very well.
** Each of the alien racers have their own catchy theme musics, which could be hard to fully hear amongst the action-packed racing.
