* In the second season, [[spoiler:The original Suou died early on and the copy was born two years before the start of the second series. Since, by his own admittance, Shion has no normal human emotions, he did a lot of guess work in creating her. What results is what Shion envisions his sister would be like had she survived, i.e. a Mary Sue. It's not great for her [[TropesAreNotBad but it works for the series.]]]]

* While it may not seem odd at first that Shion and Suou have such different Contractor powers (copying things vs. summoning an antitank rifle), because it's implied that Contractor powers are completely random. Once you learn that Suou is [[spoiler: herself a(n imperfect) copy of Shion]], though, it becomes a bit odd... Until you realize it actually makes perfect sense: Suou's power is simply a low-key version of the original's. Rather than being able to copy ''anything'', she can only copy that one, particular rifle that she saw in Nika's hideout.

* In episode 9, Hei (undercover in a hotel) is talking to Saitou (much more clumsily undercover in the same hotel) about [[FairCop Kirihara]]. There's an exchange along the lines of: "She's beautiful." "Yeah, but once you get to know her, she's actually pretty scary." Now think about [[MrFanservice who one of the]] [[ObfuscatingStupidity participants in]] [[{{Badass}} this conversation]] [[AntiHero is]].

* A bit of foreshadowing with Hei's status as a Contractor as shown in the 1st episode. This starts when Hei grabs the head of Louis, the [=DGSE=] agent sent in by Paris to infiltrate [=PANDORA=]. He states in a rebuke to Mao to stop killing him that "They're all the same". [[spoiler:Note that he doesn't count himself as a Contractor in the rebuke, which can tie in to the suggestion that Hei is not the real BK-201.]]

** [[spoiler:Notice that some energy seems to shoot into Suo's Meteor Shard locket during the depowering scene? Plus, the fact that if you look closely, you can see that Suo's rifle emerges from her amulet and not her chest strongly hints that Pai took up residence in the Meteor Shard. With the ending strongly implying that Hei got his powers back (BK-201 is shining again, and how else could he have killed Yin?), it's safe to say that Pai returned to Hei after Suo's locket was broken.]]
