* FreudWasRight: There are some things like jamming a gun powered by "orgone energy" into an opening and pulling the trigger or the little robot combining with the larger parts by entering through the crotch. It doesn't help that whoever wrote the GratuitousEnglish bits used "libido" in place of "life-force."
** Of course, the term existed in the team's [[Anime/StarDriver previous series]] (of which CE is said to be a SpiritualSuccessor anyway) already. However, Star Driver was filled with so much {{Camp}} that the ridiculousness of the term didn't really bother anyone, while in a mostly serious show like Captain Earth, it quite sticks out.

* AmbiguousEnding: There's a solid split in the fandom over how to interpret the final seconds of the finale. [[spoiler: Did Daichi and Hana both die in the explosion or did Arial intervene and save them both?]]

* HoYay: As usual in this kind of series, Daichi and Teppei have quite a bit of this going on, what's with Teppei's comments about how he likes Daichi's attitude and all. It helps that Akari apparantly ships it too and the boys never go into denial when she teases them about it.
** After Teppei [[spoiler:destroys his Egoblock and cuts ties with the Planetary Gears]], Amara becomes extremely bitter about the whole event, to the point where his sulking makes him look like he's just been dumped by his boyfriend. He also quite antagonizes Daichi and accuses him of being the reason for this situation.


Added DiffLines:

** Some of the Planetary Gears can qualify, as most of those who aren't Amara or Moco [[spoiler:(or Teppei, for that matter)]] don't get much to do after being awakened. Lin kind of have the least focus of any of them during the course of the series.

* AwesomeMusic: "Mugen no Hana", the song Hana sings on various occasions. Especially the version accompanied by orchestral music that appears in one of the trailers and which she sings in-universe twice to [[spoiler:fuel Teppei's Machine Goodfellow]]. Sadly, it hasn't been used since, but there is also an almost equally awesome instrumental version that plays in the scene where [[spoiler:Hana gets her own Livlaster]].

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Eiji. Aside from his suspicious similarities to [[Anime/StarDriver Head]], him being [[spoiler:Teppei's]] father should have made ''some'' sort of impact onto his son, who had never even known he exists. His status as a criminal charged for assault and attempted murder and his in contrast really nice behaviour towards [[spoiler:his son]] Teppei and Akari hinted at him being somewhat morally ambigous. At the end of his episode, he is taken off the plot in a way that would usually make you think he starts doing his own thing in the background for a while until becoming important again later, but the day never comes. In fact, when in a late episode Daichi, Hana and Teppei talk about their parents, Eiji is not brought up at all, as if everyone had completely forgotten he exists. Considering that [[spoiler:Teppei]] was somewhat uncomfortable around him and not very keen on the whole "father" thing, one might have expected him to raise his voice. In short, he was there for one single episode, introduced and disposed of like an important character, but then never seen again, despite his potential.

For reference, [[spoiler: Amara, who looks to be in his late teens or early twenties, chases down and corners the clearly terrified Setsuna, then forcefully kisses her as she begs him to stop and leave her alone.]] [[SomebodyElsesProblem All the while, a few dozen pedestrians look on, but do nothing to interfere.]]



* WhatAnIdiot: The Ark Faction want the Kiltgang to succeed because their success means that all but the most elite humans will survive. What they don't seem to be aware of is how [[spoiler: the Kiltgang won't just siphon the life from humanity and leave. Their attack will leave the planet ''completely uninhabitable for the survivors.'']]
** It is in fact a wrong interpretation of Ark Faction. Ark Faction is a ''legitimate, world-approved organization with an alternative plan to "let's kill the Kiltgang".'' They would NOT have their entire cold-sleep quarters on the orbital stations otherwise. They're the humanity's contingency if the other option fails. ''Their leader'' on the other hand is the delusional idiot who wants what is described above.

* FunnyMoments: In episode 13 Amarok treats the fight between Bugbear and Daichi like a ring fight. And plays ringleader, with a very deadpan, slightly amused tone and completely straight face.
