* NotSoAboveItAll: He carries himself like a NobleDemon for the most part, but when Bravern installs something into him that translates his speech the first thing Superbia does is cuss him out in what is percieved as a very hick-like accent by the humans.
-->'''Superbia:''' The hell d'ya think you're doing, shitface?!

* {{Expy}}: Of Angilon from ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDD'', as both characters has similar roles, motivations and even share the same [[Creator/TomokazuSugita voice actor]]. through he looks more like his female ally Mabilon from the same game in terms of color and design. This is even lampshaded like hell and back during the debut of the anime in SRW DD, as the show is one of the few ones which Dido, aka Didarion, name-drops during his attacks, as well of working very well with Bravern.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: For some reason Knuth has had her sights set on Smith and ''only'' Smith and only wants to die after he "makes love" to her. Needless to say Smith doesn't reciprocate her feelings at all and futilely tries to redirect her to Bravern.
Added DiffLines:
* EvilCounterpart: To Bravern. Like Bravern she's an immensely powerful super robot who is fixated on one human, Smith, and will only accept what she desires from him. But while Bravern's love for Isami is genuine, if a little too much at times, Knuth's love for Smith is completely selfish and deranged, manifesting in her killing and brutalizing the rest of the Brave Knights so she can have Smith all to herself.

* SupportPartyMember: While his fog ''does'' have offensive capabilities he mainly uses it to provide a smokescreen for Vanitas and to sabotage Bravern's attacks. Most of the heavier blows against Bravern are dealt by Vanitas' drones while Pessimism hangs back and only interferes occasionally.

* AgentPeacock: He's pretty flamboyant compared to most of the other Deathdrives and his body-shape and color scheme are very feminine. He gives Bravern a run for his money, continously bombarding him with AttackDrones through the fog and even blowing him out of the sky at several points.
* DualBoss: He attacks together with Pessimism, with Pessimism's fog and his own drones proving to be a pretty lethal combination. Originally they were even supposed to be a boss ''trio'', but Knuth running off to do her own thing throws a wrench into that plan.
* OhCrap: Downplayed. [[spoiler: Vanitas is displeased when he realizes Knuth just blew the orbital tower to pieces, meaning the Deathdrives have lost their ResurrectiveImmortality for good. Not so much because that means he'll die permanently, but because now he only has one chance to die the flashy extravagant death he desires.]]

* {{Omniglot}}: Implied. He introduces himself to Isami in Japanese and speaks the same language in his meeting with the military brass. However, when Heidemarie relays her suspicions about him to one of her subordinates in German, Bravern not only reveals that he understood her perfectly but also answers her in German, suggesting that he speaks every language on the planet and merely limited himself to Japanese for everyone's convenience.
Added DiffLines:
* BilingualBackfire: During the brass' first meeting with Bravern she tells a fellow Bundeswehr officer in German that she suspects Bravern is an American-made drone. Bravern, in perfect German, tells her this isn't the time for humanity to be distrustful of each other.
