1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjwwKKgB8gs season one opening theme]] by Far East Movement.
2** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkfDsAuMHco Season two and three's theme]] by Soulja is pretty good too.
3* ClicheStorm: A common criticism of the series is its use of many common tropes present in many other {{Mon}} series without adding anything new to the table.
4* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Some of Jinja's snarks can do this to you.
5** Beyal's BigDamnHeroes moment at the end of "Assault" is awesome to be sure, but his battle cry is ''hilariously'' out of character at the same time.
6** While having to listen to the utterly insane ramblings of Dom Pyro, we got this:
7-->'''Hargrave''': *sigh* I hate my job.
8** In the next episode, we get this line from [[BigBad Klipse]] of all characters.
9-->'''Klipse:''' [[spoiler:Does [[ArtificialHuman he]] ''have'' to call me ''FATHER''?]]
10** The Season 2 Episode "Train" has a quick moment while Team Core-Tech are chasing down Strike Squad[[labelnote:*]], who themselves are chasing Jeredy and John. who are in the titular Train,[[/labelnote]] in the latter's "borrowed" vehicle. Chase realizes they need the vehicle's weapons to stop Strike Squad.
11--->'''Chase:''' "Ah! We got incoming. Who's manning the weapons?"\
12'''Beyal:''' ''(camera pans to Beyal)'' ''*[[{{Sting}} Dun Dun Duuuunnnn]]*'' "Oh my. But which button is the attack?" ''(presses seat recliner button)'' "Ah. Well, not that one."
13*** Cue exasperated Dax and Jinja taking it over from Beyal.
14** Season 3 episode "Pet" gives us a rather... [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} out there fellow]] livin' at the garbage end of a garbage chute named [[FirstPersonPerson Rot Johnny]]. With little provocation, he threatens to, before proceeding to, spin out...! A club sandwich?! It even spins like a Monsuno Core! Right up until it goes splat against the wall.
15--->'''Bren:''' "Waste of a perfectly good ham sandwich."
16*** Then Bren contemplates trying to salvage and [[{{Squick}} eat it]] before Chase puts it out of his mind.
17* HilariousInHindsight: ''Anime/EurekaSeven'' had standard mechs called "Mon-Soonos", which were also 'launched'.
18* HoYay: Apparently, Chase is Beyal's "destiny".
19* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler:The Bookman]] crossed it off-screen by [[spoiler:killing all the Monks in the Library, with only Beyal and his master escaping.]]
20** S.T.O.R.M. appeared to be more or less an AntiVillain organization until Charlemagne doomed a whole town as "acceptable" collateral damages to get a wild Monsuno Core.
21*** And if that didn't cross it, she callously murdered Team Core-Tech (or so she thought), and told the captured Jeredy Suno to get over it and move on, plus start working on her Monsuno army.
22* NightmareFuel: '''''DOM PYRO'''''. His tracking abilities are frighteningly good, he has an insane laugh, he's survived ''TWO'' buildings falling on him, and he always talks like a predator, right down to calling his prey mice. And worse, '''he planned to add Chase and the gang to his [[TakenForGranite collection...]]'''
23** [[spoiler:And this isn't mentioning how Dom Pyro's Monsuno ''almost suffered the same fate itself''. '''And apparently the process can't be reversed, judging by his own horrified reaction.''']]
24** The new Monsuno at the end of "Shadows". The most horrific thing about it is the fact that it's actually [[spoiler: '' Jon Ace'']].
25* PeripheryDemographic: A large number of its fans are females due to all the [[{{Bishonen}} attractive males]].
26* ShipTease: Jinja's had at least one moment with each of the four boys on the team (except Chase).
27** And then at the end of 'Mirrors', her job-well-done kiss to Beyal sends him into a blushing HeroicBSOD-esqe state, causing Bren to fall over from shock and Dax to irritatedly ask if that's all it takes to get a kiss around here. And when she playfully asks if he wants one too, he reacts all flustered and tries to deny/avoid it... Chase meanwhile, is merely standing there looking amused.
28** Afterward, there's Bren and Tango, which at first was just his chasing after her... until she blew him a thank-you kiss at the end of "Pet".
29* SoOkayItsAverage: The general critical consensus is that the series is rather generic [[{{Mon}} Mon]] series without many remarkable qualities.
30* TearJerker: [[spoiler: Jon Ace's HeroicSacrifice]], which later leads the too above mentioned NightmareFuel.
31** [[spoiler: Quickforce's HeroicSacrifice]] in episode 27, the fact that Bren blamed himself despite [[spoiler: Quickforce]] actively making the decision of his own accord doesn't help.
32** Bren's depression over losing [[spoiler: Quickforce]] in the episode 28 is understandable.
33* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: Pretty much like many other Mon franchises, this was instantly dismissed as another "Pokémon rip-off".
