Funny / Super Robot Wars Reversal

  • The "Miss Nadesico" Contest was already funny in its own series, but the crossover nature of this game adds even more hilarity:
    • They ask Jamil and Bright of all people to be the judges, since they are captains themselves. The two are understandably baffled that Nergal would select a new captain this way, with Bright in particular worried about what his wife would say if she saw him now.
    • The contest is only open to the crew of the Nadesico, which disappoints many girls from other series (Tonya, Enil, Beauty and Reika) who were sure they could win.
    • Subaru and Zero arrive on Earth right in time for Subaru to find flyers of the contest. He asks Zero if being good-looking in a swimsuit is really a trait a captain would need. Zero replies that humans are known to do strange and nonsensical things, which is probably the only time he truly had a point with his usual Humans Are Bastards rhetoric.
  • The Frost Brothers discover the Charles Atlas Superpower of the G Gundam cast. They wonder if they are some sort of Newtype.
  • Raji's obsession with power sources leads to him trying to disassemble some of the robots of the group just to see how they work, to the annoyance of the pilots and embarrassment of his teammates. And then there is his reaction to being informed that one of those super awesome robots, Dendoh, is powered by giant batteries. It's pretty much an Heroic BSoD.
    • On the subject of Dendoh's batteries, there was a scene early in its anime where Hokuto and Ginga are shocked to find about it, claiming that "in this day and age" it should at least be solar-powered. The staff answers that would be impractical, as it would mean Dendoh couldn't be used at night or during rainy days. This same dialogue is repeated in this game, but now there is a robot around that is actually powered by the sun and very much not impractical: Daitarn 3. Ginga thinks it is much cooler than Dendoh.
  • The official manga; in particular, one story deals with the segment of the plot from After War Gundam X where the heroes are forced to hand over their Newtype allies, except this time Hayato Jin comes up with a plan that involves sending the Neo Getter Team (and the Robot Buddy of Combattler V and the butler of Daitarn 3) in disguise. The whole thing is priceless, whether it's Gai Daidouji-as-Kamille Bidan cheerfully explaining his appearance by saying "I GOT FAT!", or Gou's impersonation of Amuro Ray (which consists of clutching his head, Wangsting, and spouting lines about Lalah Sune and how he can see time). To say nothing of Four Murasame going Blue with Shock after reuniting with "Kamille"...
