Japanese commentators from both Website/NicoNicoDouga and Website/YouTube were quick to joke that the soldier is actually played by veteran voice actor Mamoru Miyano of ''Manga/DeathNote'' fame or he (Jon Lucas) might even be the "live-action version of Mamoru Miyano" (as if Miyano is a living cartoon/anime character himself) due to how closely they [[IdenticalStranger resemble each other]].[[/labelnote]]

* Zardoz's helmet [[spoiler: as he pilots the final Beast Fighter Godor]] has been memetically compared to the Pokemon Slowking due to its spiked, conical shape.

* Zairus the Beast Fighter is fairly memetic, with jokes associating it to Jake Zyrus, comparing it to ''Franchise/{{Zoids}}'' or [[Characters/MightyMorphinPowerRangersRangers Power Rangers Dinozord]], or poking fun at the ridiculous image of a flying Triceratops jet.

** And for those familiar with local TV, some compared it to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pong_Pagong Pong Pagong]], a Muppet-like turtle character from the Filipino children's show ''Batibot''.

* Manuel Nabuz, he is a ZARDOZ.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Zardoz's disguise as Manuel Nabuz not only draw comparisons to [[Franchise/{{Gundam}} Char Aznable's]] "Quattro Bajeena" persona, but also that of [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Radiguet's]] while suffering from amnesia.

* Turn A Dokugaga/∀ Dokugaga.[[labelnote:Explanation]]In Japan, the ''Legacy'' version of Dokugaga is called "Turn A Dokugaga" or "∀ Dokugaga" in [[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm41613050 video comments]], message boards, and forums because of how much Dokugaga looks like the titular Gundam of ''Anime/TurnAGundam''.[[/labelnote]]

** Godor [[Anime/AfterWarGundamX Double X]][[labelnote:Explanation]]Godor's [[ShoulderCannon shoulder-mounted]] {{BFG}}s led to comparisons with Gundam Double X's Twin Satellite Cannons, or to an extent the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Freedom Gundam's]] Balaena Plasma Cannons, which functions similarly with Double X's Twin Satellite Cannons.[[/labelnote]]

* Contessa, the mother of Zambojil, being crushed to death by Godor's ThreePointLanding has been subject to many BlackComedy jokes, comparing her to other anime charactets who similarly died of being crushed.
