** The Brazilian dub calls the series and its main character "Jaspion", following the kana spelling; although the name is supposed to be a portmanteau of "Justice" and "Champion".

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: As inhuman Satangorth and his kin may be, Satangorth and Madgalant truly care about each other as father and son. As shown during the penultimate episode where Madgalant and Satangorth talks about their dream to dominate Earth with their race, Madgalant truly respects his father and is determined to help his father achieve their dream. On Satangorth's side, he considers Madgalant to be his important heir and that everything he did to expand his empire was so he can one day bestow of all them to Madgalant. Unsurprisingly, when Madgalant is killed off for the second and final time by Juspion, Satangorth was truly pissed and proceed to beat the crap out of Daileon.

----
!!''Kyojuu Tokusou Juspion'' provides examples of the following tropes:

* AIIsACrapshoot
** The villains' plot in one episode is to use household appliances against the people through robot maids.
** Luckily, it never happened to Anri... to wit: [[spoiler:the only time the villains attempted this was in episode 10, but Juspion saved her in the nick of time]].
* CatchPhrase: In the Brazilian dub, "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-vZwvnfmaw maldito Jaspion!]]"
* CrystalDragonJesus: The Golden Bird.
* EldritchAbomination: Satangorth's ultimate form, which he assumes towards the end of the series.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: As inhuman Satangorth and his kin may be, Satangorth and Madgalant truly care about each other as father and son. As shown during the penultimate episode where Madgalant and Satangorth talks about their dream to dominate Earth with their race, Madgalant truly respects his father and is determined to help his father achieve their dream. On Satangorth's side, he considers Madgalant to be his important heir and that everything he did to expand his empire was so he can one day bestow of all them to Madgalant. Unsurprisingly, when Madgalant is killed off for the second and final time by Juspion, Satangorth was truly pissed and proceed to beat the crap out of Daileon.
* EvilTwin: Juspion's enemy is Satangorth's son Madgalant, who has a suit of PoweredArmor similar to Juspion's, only black.
* FunnyAfro: Juspion had it during his IdiotHero phase.
* HumongousMecha: The Daileon.
* IdiotHero: Juspion was written as one at first, but actor Hikaru Kurosaki forced the writers to change him a bit, as he wanted to do a more dramatic performance.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: How Madgalant dies [[spoiler:for the second time]].
* ImportantHaircut: The mark of Juspion's CharacterDevelopment.
* MagicVersusScience: Pointed out in episode 33: being a gynoid, Anri cannot be affected by Gilza's magic.
* {{Mondegreen}}: As shown wonderfully [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udaFtXNrryc in Brazilian Portuguese]].
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Madgalant is quite determined to defeat Juspion. During their final battle, he even ordered his underlings to stay away from the fight as it's a fight between him and Juspion only.
* RentAZilla: Main enemies in this one; get beaten up by the Daileon.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Miya, the bipedal monster who accompanies Juspion and Anri.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Anri, in spades.
* TheRival: Madgalant to Juspion.
* SecretPublicIdentity: Unlike previous Metal Heroes, "Juspion" is the hero's real name.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS
** The Brazilian dub calls the series and its main character "Jaspion", following the kana spelling; although the name is supposed to be a portmanteau of "Justice" and "Champion".
** But in Portuguese, Jaspion is pronounced just like in English, Juspion. In Portuguese, Juspion would be pronounced "Joospion".
* TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse: Madgalant constantly makes the point of turning Tokyo (sometimes, all of Japan) into the land of monsters.
* TragicMonster: The reason for TheVillainSucksSong. The giant beasts are simply creatures of varying levels of intelligence that are minding their own business until Satangorth forces them into an enraged state. With no way to reverse it, Juspion must take them out to protect the humans and aliens at their feet, but the monsters are victims too, every last one.
* VillainousBreakdown: Madgalant suffers one in episode 45, due to his inability to accept that a mere human like Juspion could defeat him, a mutant. He goes so far as to become a second Satangorth, but doesn't get to do much.
* TheVillainSucksSong: "Kyojuu-tachi yo" is basically the monsters lamenting that Satangorth is making them attack.
* WorthyOpponent: Juspion for Mad Gallant.
* WouldHurtAChild: Pretty much the bad guys' point. Since the Golden Bird chose children as vessels before it can awaken, Madgalant (and, by extension, his dad) gleefully guns for them.
