** Gotoh. To the point that the description of their weekly radio show basically says "Gotoh and [[ThoseTwoGuys the three other members]]".
** Interestingly, [[ThoseTwoGuys Kiyoshi]] himself is the face the band Phonotones, which is constantly referred to as "Kiyoshi's new band".

* CrowningMomentOfFunny:
** Kita singing an improvised song, titled "Breakfast Minority", when hosting an online radio show.
** Also, the members' "dancing" in the music video of "''Kimi to Iu Hana''".
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XofH2plcrA0 ROCK AND ROLL DESU KA!]]
** The commercial for ''Kimi Tsunagi Five M'', which basically consists of the band members wearing sunglasses and randomly improvising while Gotoh shrieks things like "THANKS TO SOCIAL PROBLEMS, WE'RE ALL BROKE" into the microphone.



* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming:
** "Tightrope" and "''Mayonaka to Mahiru no Yume''".
** Soon after the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in 2011, Asian Kung-Fu Generation wrote and released "On the Sand" to reach out to the victims. The only instruments are acoustic guitar and keyboard to keep the focus on the message.

* HoYay: Gotoh and Kita singing a duet in "Night Diving." Bonus points for Kita singing in a high-pitched, feminine voice.
** The lyrics, though, aren't that romantic.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome:
** The drums in "Blue Train" ''sound just like a train going over tracks.''
** Kiyoshi's drums on Atarashii Sekai. They're even more epic live.

* EndingFatigue: Several of their songs sound like they're about to end but start up again after a few seconds of silence, such as "''Shiro ni Someru''", "Tightrope", and the live version of "''Uso to'' Wonderland". There's also "''Mugen'' Glider", but considering the title (''mugen'' means "infinity") it's probably deliberate.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: What a lot of people thought of ''Magic Disk''.
