* CrowningMomentOfFunny Matorif sends Dai, Pop, and Maamu in a flying boat towards Baruji island. The boat speeds across the air...

** When shopping for weapons, Pop and Dai are disappointed at the local equipment. Fortunately the owner has an ace on the hole: The HAMMER HELM! (ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, a helmet with a hammer embedded into it.)

** The Dragon Rock Castle is finally revealed to be a Humongous Mecha, wreaking havok with its laser eyes, massive strength and hordes of Mooks... until Dai steps in and single-handedly demolishes it.

* {{Narm}} when sentimentality meets BeyondTheImpossible. Especially noteworthy are the tearful {{Heel Face Turn}}s, every instance where Crocodine cries, characters sentimentalizing over how great Hyunkel actually is behind his JerkassFacade, and Maamu and Pop's musings about love, their immaturity in love, etc. [[spoiler: Baran's HeroicSacrifice]] is a strange mix of genuinely moving and very {{Narm}}y. On the other hand, [[spoiler: Hadler's death in Aban's arms]] is stupidly contrived.

* {{Squick}} Seriously, Hadler -especially his hyper demon form, aka "the love child of the Hulk and a giant spider in He-Man's underpants." That, and the fact that [[PsychoSupporter Albinasu might be in love with him]].

* WhatAnIdiot Using a fire attack to unblock an obstructed room full of gunpowder?! Really clever Dai. Though, it's highly probable that [[FishOutOfWater he didn't knew any better]] about gunpowder's properties before that incident
