** Not to say anything of the damage to the city both super mechanoids are fighting in, which Guy lampshades as Mamoru winds up a RocketPunch. The fight entirely plays straight how a battle between [[HumongousMecha mechs of that size]] should go down, mercilessly unleashing for maximum effect all of the DestructiveSaviour horror that the series had averted until now thanks to the GGG crew's competence and precautions (using the Dividing Driver to create a safe battlefield, evacuating civilians, etc...)

** The good guys also get a preview of what it feels to be on the receiving end of the Goldion Hammer. It is so horrific it breaks the MindControl on the repli-Mobile Corps, who we get to see disintegrated into light screaming. Awesome HeroicSacrifice? Yes, sure, but still very nightmarish.

He doesn't even resort to using any of his special attacks, just roaring in rage and tearing it limb from limb. And when it comes to the core... he just rips it out, no Hell and Heaven nor Goldion Hammer.

The way his deep, whole body constantly squirms and pulsates, combined with his deep and menacing voice, combined with how he's constantly squirming and pulsating, which even includes his eyes, give makes him a come off as truly freaky and unsettling appearance.
unsettling.
* Speaking of the Machine Kings, let's talk about Penchinon. The other Machine Kings have relatively human forms, with the most cybernetic-looking being Polonaise, whose head looks like a cross between a steam train and a mechanical caterpillar. All of them can also assume a perfectly normal looking human form. Then there's Penchinon, whose default form is basically a tugboat with [[CyberCyclops a single mechanical eye]], legs, and pincer-clawed hands. His "human" form, on the other hand, looks like a MonsterClown wearing an old-timey sailor suit, with his right eye missing and covered by a patch emblazoned with an anchor symbol, a too-wide red-lipped toothy grin, and a staring mad yellow eye contrasting a half-purple, half-white face. It says a lot about Penchinon's state of mind that ''this'' is his idea of AFormYouAreComfortableWith.
** What truly makes Penchinon terrifying is [[HellIsThatNoise his laugh]]. A high-pitched, reverberating "BREEEEEE!" in the Japanese, and an instant, staccato cackle in the English.
** Episode 20 has an infamous scene where the vice-principal of Mamoru's school opens a door in the toilet and finds Penchinon in there, sitting on the toilet and laughing at him. Why is he there? ''Because he felt like being creepy''.

* FINAL invokes this by the boatload, but special mention has to be given to episode 2 :
** Mamoru (actually a replicant, but the color scheme and Mamoru using his powers makes it EXTREMELY hard to tell) goes and manipulates or outright kills everyone in his way to acquire Q-Parts, with blatant disregard for life or decency, pulling at heartstrings and gas-lighting his friends with lines such as "Believe me! The whole universe is in danger! Why won't you understand?", "If you won't listen to reason, [[WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou you leave me no choice]]!", "I'm not wrong, YOU are!", while refusing to actually give any explanation, to stall for time before pulling a sucker punch. The whole thing would leave most people feeling downright nauseous.
** And then it is revealed that Mamoru's replicant has been twisted into THAT by Palparepa's MindControl.
** The fight between "Mamoru" in [=GaoGaiGar=] (based on a deathly white Galeon, which immediately raises a lot of questions) versus Guy in [=GaoFighGar=]. Some of the expressions Mamoru wears are downright inhumane, and Guy himself is reduced to barking orders for the Goldion Hammer (even Goldymarg is very much nonplussed at the idea of being used against Mamoru), and to finish, BerserkerTears as he finally resolves to go beyond the GodzillaThreshold and use Hell and Heaven, after seeing Mamoru destroy [=ChoRyuJin=]. That Mamoru might have been a replicant, but what Guy did in that fight was 100% on him and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he was clearly NOT okay at all with having had to go that far]].
** Not to say anything of the damage to the city both super mechanoids are fighting in, which Guy lampshades as Mamoru winds up a RocketPunch.
* FINAL episode 5 :
** We get an absolutely horrifying flashback of Renais going through ColdBloodedTorture to coerce her into loyalty to [=BioNet=]. Her backstory as a whole is this too, what with being abducted and having her mother killed.
** Just as the good guys have a HopeSpot after freeing J and J-Ark, Palus Abel reveals what the Sol Masters have in store : the replicants of GGG super mechanoids, brainwashed and uttering the MadnessMantra of "Destroy. Destroy. Destroy.", and for good measure a BrainwashedAndCrazy Guy piloting replica-[=GaoFighGar=], who also follows the MadnessMantra before going in full ScreamingWarrior mode, prepped to use the Goldion Hammer. Not only is the OhCrap factor utterly horrifying, but this is nothing compared to Guy's face while under the MindControl, and the anguished scream of Mikoto.
