* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[spoiler: Black Might Gaine]] is the unit local Japanese fans have been sobbing for years to see revived. [[spoiler: The ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' franchise [[SparedByTheAdaptation granted their wish with full love]] everytime Might Gaine appears starting its debut in ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsV V]]'']], and by the time of ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsT T]]'', even got to be part of the Joint Dragon Fire attack!

** The concept of having flying trains may seem outlandish when the show first aired, but in 2018, it may not be so crazy "[[https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj1u5SuusrdAhXJJsAKHYKwC_8QwqsBMAF6BAgBEAc&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DRjGByUMtQwE&usg=AOvVaw1X2AlrOowYFO9QZ-Wbrs20 Yes Flying trains are now a thing.]]

** Likewise, this would actually be [[RelationshipVoiceActor the first time]] both Creator/HikaruMidorikawa and Creator/AkikoYajima play a pair of BroodingBoyGentleGirl, until they played another pair with rather similar dynamic but much more widespread [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing two years later.]]

** There was a song in the style of a musical made for the series, called "The Musical of Battle", sung by Might and Joe, and predictably it's deliciously hammy and over-the-top. And it is ''glorious''. The best part about this one is that due to the many roles their [[Creator/NobuyukiHiyama voice]] [[Creator/HikaruMidorikawa actors]] have under their belts [[RelationshipVoiceActor have the same relationship]], it can bring to mind the hilarious image of [[VideoGame/VoltageFighterGowcaizer any]] [[Manga/FushigiYuugi two]] [[Anime/SaintSeiyaOmega given]] [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros characters]] hamming it up and ChewingTheScenery like there's no tomorrow while [[HamAndCheese having the time of their lives.]]

* HilariousInHindsight: The show may have come out in 1993, long before the anime craze truly caught on in America, but Shogun Mifune's "Japanese culture is the greatest thing ever" and his desire to emulate it is surprisingly close to the modern 'weeaboo' stereotype.

* ItWasHisSled: Virtually all discussion of the show centers around a plot point that comes up halfway through the final episode and is never hinted at previously. To make matters worse, discussion is typically muddied by a dose of CommonKnowledge, as described above.

* CommonKnowledge: Ask anyone who knows anything about the show, and they'll tell you about how [[spoiler:Black Noel reveals that the entire Might Gaine world is nothing but one giant commercial made by an evil toy company to sell toys. What he actually reveals is that the whole world is a game, [[TheUnreveal and he never goes into full detail as to what that actually means.]]]] [[WordOfGod Director Takamatsu]] [[AllThereInTheManual later admitted]] he was quite ambitious over this concept, and regretted that the concept didn't turn out to be as thoroughly explained/developed as he presumed it could.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The opening, ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtBi5dHAejM Arashi no Hero]]''. Equally epic is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aFq_xebrvM this instrumental version]] from the Playstation game ''Brave Saga''.

* TakeThat: The twist ending is commonly thought of as pushback by Sunrise against Takara over conflicts during the making of [[Anime/TheBraveFighterOfLegendDaGarn its predecessor]]. The sheer over-the-top degree to which villainous robots combine and transform, often for no reason and far in excess of how often they do so in other Brave Series shows, might be an extended example against the excesses of MerchandiseDriven shows in general, [[SelfDeprecation though of course Might Gaine is such a show itself]].
