This hand of mine glows with an awesome POWER! Its burning grip tells me to defeat you! Take this! My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow! SHINING FINGER SWORRRRRDDDD!!! GO! GO! GO!!!
The first Alternate Universe in the Gundam franchise. Full title: Mobile Fighter G Gundam. Notable as a significant departure from the normal Gundam saga in that it was essentially a Super Robot show. Every Gundam series before and after has been essentially the prime examples of the Real Robot genre. G Gundam has only a few mild relations to the other series besides the name Gundam. It also takes a lot of inspiration from the shonen genre. Part of this radical change is that Yoshiyuki Tomino set aside series director duties after being burned out on Victory Gundam and was interested in producing something more lighthearted with the Gundam name.
G Gundam is set in the Future Century (FC) in which The Federation, consisting of several colonies corresponding to Earth's nations, has held a robot-battling competition called the Gundam Fight every four years to determine which colony would gain control of the government. The show's story takes place in the year FC 60, the year of the 13th Gundam Fight, and follows Neo-Japan's Gundam Fighter, Domon Kasshu, as he not only fights to win the Gundam Fight but also searches for his missing brother and the Devil Gundam. As the series progresses, Domon fights his way through several powerful opponents, gains new allies and discovers the truth about his brother, the Devil Gundam, and himself.
The show completely embraced the Super Robot aspects and featured, among many other things, a Gundam that looked like Sailor Moon. It is impossible to accept this show without understanding Refuge In Audacity, but what keeps this as a proud Gundam series is the nature of the Gundam Fight itself. Without the tournament, Earth would return to its previous habit of resolving conflicts... through war.
This was also noteworthy as the first Gundam series made after the toy company Bandai bought Sunrise.
Compare and contrast Macross7 in terms of a franchise sequel that differs greatly from the source material.
Let's get things started! Gundam Tropes all set! Ready, GO!!!
- The Abridged Series: G Gundam Abridged
- Action Girl (Allenby)
- Affably Evil (Prime Minister Wong, who eats pocky, invites the hero to his penthouse for a drink, and even cheers his victories in his first few matches.)
- After The End (The Earth itself, but not the colonies.)
- AI Is A Crapshoot ( the Devil Gundam, originally named the Ultimate Gundam, was intended to be used to restore the Earth after the damage it'd taken from the Gundam battles. All it takes is a simple mechanical malfunction for the thing to interpret this ultimatum as "Kill All Humans".)
- All Your Powers Combined (Towards the end, the Devil Gundam starts to take control and creates a Gundam for Urube that is a kind of Megazord combination of almost all the villains of the series.)
- The Shuffle Alliance combines their attacks to defeat said "Megazord Gundam."
- Aloof Big Brother (Kyoji Kasshu. Or is he?)
- Ancient Conspiracy (The original Shuffle Alliance)
- Animate Dead - Devil Gundam can use its nanomachine to animate corpses, turn them to zombies to pilot Death Army mobile suit.
- Artificial Gravity
- Artificial Human (Schwarz Bruder, at least in his current state.)
- Ascended Fanboy (Subverted with Chang in Episode 27, who tries to steal Domon's Gundam only to get nearly killed by the Mobile Trace System)
- The Atoner (Domon enters the Tournament to atone for his family's supposed sins. ( However, the true atoner is Dr. Mikamura, who framed Domon's family and, after his Heel Face Turn, he makes up for it with an Heroic Sacrifice .)
- A Wizard Did It (Don't bother trying to make sense of most of the action scenes, the show is as Super Robot as it can possibly get)
- Ax Crazy (Michelo Chariot from day one. He's later joined in his murderousness by fallen hero Gentle Chapman
- Badass (most of the cast, but especially Domon, Schwarz, and Master Asia)
- The Berserker ( Allenby, when under the control of the eponymous Berserker System)
- Better Than It Sounds (Despite being more Super Robot-ish, this is one of the few Gundam Series that doesn't highlight teenagers but instead young adults and older (with the exception of Sai). It also deconstructs the Falling Into The Cockpit trope where a kid nearly kills himself just trying to pilot a Gundam.)
- Big Bad ( The Devil Gundam itself)
- Big Brother Mentor ( Schwarz Bruder, who ends up being a clone of Domon's older brother Kyoji)
- Bittersweet Ending (They win, but Domon loses his mother, older brother, mentor, and a clone of his brother due to the fighting. And he almost loses his friends, father, home colony and girlfriend in the process as well.)
- Blade Reflection (variation)
- Bodyguard Crush (Princess Maria Louise crushes like crazy on George, who may or may not love her back)
- Body Horror (Saette, Gentle Chapman and/or Kyoji's cases exemplify the horrifying control that the DG Cells can have on someone's body and mind)
- Boisterous Bruiser (Chibodee Crocket. Argo Gulskii also counts, but as a more serious version.)
- Boring Invincible Hero (Domon, regrettably. He would have been a much more appealing character if he'd gotten his butt firmly handed to him at least once. Schwarz and Master don't count, since they were mentor characters, not actual villains.)
- What about the Four Heavenly Kings? They beat him senseless every time he fought them until his friends saved his bacon.
- That was so the villains could have their time slapping Domon and the God Gundam around, until the Shuffle Alliance slaps back.
- I'd say he's more of a Showy Invincible Hero than this. We all know Domon's gonna win... what counts is not that, but HOW he will do it.
- Bowdlerization/Market Based Title: Under orders from Sunrise, the English dub changes several of the mechas' names for various reasons. The most obvious are the God and Devil Gundams, renamed Burning and Dark respectively (this also goes for anything with "Devil" in its name - DG Cells, Devil Army, etc).
- Let's not forget about the hilariously stereotypical Tequila Gundam
 which was changed to "Spike Gundam" in the dub
- Brainwashed And Crazy (Saette, when under control of the DG cells. George, Sai Saici, Argo and Chibodee, during the Shinjuku arc, when also infused with the Cells. Allenby, during the Battle Royale in Rantao - she was under DG Cells AND Berserker system control)
- Broken Pedestal (Master Asia, Kyouji)
- Cain And Abel (Kyouji is the Cain, Domon is the Abel. Or so we think.)
- Calling Your Attacks (As you'd expect from it being a Super Robot series. See page quote for one of the most extreme examples
in the series ever.)
- Captain Ethnic (And how!)
- Catch Phrase (Domon Kasshu: "This hand of mine is burning red! Its loud roar tells me to grasp victory!")
- Who could forget "Gundam Fight! Ready...GOOOOO!!"
- Cat Fight (Partially subverted: Rain's fight against Allenby wasn't exactly a cakewalk)
- Chaotic Good (Domon, to a degree the rest of the Shuffle Alliance)
- Chekhovs Gunman (Several minor (seemingly one-episode) characters either appear again or are mentioned, but most starkly Gentle Chapman and Michelo Chariot, who become major forces driving the plot. Arguably Andrew Graham, as his story seemed to be a one-episode tale, but he ends up saving Argo's life at the expense of his fighting career and set off the chain of events leading to Allenby's disappearance.)
- Charles Atlas Superpower (THE SCHOOL OF THE UNDEFEATED OF THE EAST!)
- Chess Master (Master Asia at first, before the Tournament Arc. Later Wong took this role, introducing a direct chess metaphor with a giant chess set representing the Gundam Fight final battle. He played everyone from Domon to the Devil Gundam itself like pawns.)
- Chess Motifs (Prime Minister Wong's Gundam chess set)
- Chivalrous Pervert (Chibodee, who flirts with Rain gratuitously but only in good fun, and when it's needed if fiercely protective of her and his Four Girl Ensemble.)
- Combat By Champion (Essentially the whole concept of the Gundam fight.)
- Combat Commentator (Practically anyone watching the matches, from little children to the authorities.)
- Conveniently An Orphan (Most of the show's cast are orphans and a few have one parent. Can't be tough if you came from a happy family it seems.)
- Cool Horse (Fuunsaiki, a horse so cool he gets his own gundam)
- Damsel In Distress (Subverted with Maria Louise. She really wants to play the part, but...)
- Dead Person Impersonation ( To a degree, Schwarz. It's... complicated.)
- Defeat Means Friendship (And so, apparently, does a draw.)
- Die For Our Ship (Allenby with the Domon/Rain shippers and Rain with the Domon/Allenby shippers. Domon, if you ship Rain with George or Chibodee)
- Did Not Do The Research In episode 5, Domon is trapped in a Russian cell. His cellmate, playing chess, signifies the hopeless of his situation by moving a knight and declaring checkmate... while not checking the opposing king at all.
- Disappeared Dad (Chibodee's Missing Mom is seen in a flashback, but nothing is ever mentioned about his father)
- Drunk With Power ( Urube, who waits about five seconds after Domon's won the tournament to pull a massive coup d'etat, declare himself Dictator of the Universe () and ultimately become what one of this troper's friends affectionately labeled as 'a DG cell steroid freak.')
- Eagleland (Chibodee Crockett, his bedtime lullaby was The Battle Hymn of the Republic... seriously.)
- Earth Is A Battlefield (Sort of. It's not covered by battles, but the Gundams can fight anywhere. "Earth is the ring.")
- Empathic Weapon (The Gundams)
- Enemy Civil War ( Master Asia and Prime Minister Wong start off as partners in crime, begin to distrust and snipe at each other, and by the end each is openly gunning for the other's death. Wong tries to bargain it into going full circle, but Asia openly admits at that point that he'd planned to double-cross Wong the entire time.)
- Ensemble Darkhorse (Hans Holgar from Neo Denmark. He's got a fish-shaped Gundam, but his smarts and and VERY good looks have given him a special place in the fans's hearts)
- To a lesser extent, Master Asia's horse and gloating platform, Fuunsaiki.
- Least not forget Neo Holland's Nether Gundam aka Windmill Gundam.
- Enthusiasm Versus Stoicism
- Even Evil Has Standards ( Master Asia)
- Everyone Looks Sexier If French (Look no further than Neo France's George de Sand)
- Everythings Better With Princesses (Maria Louise of Neo France)
- Evil Redhead (Michelo Chariot, subverted by the fact that he apparently dyes his hair that color)
- Fallen Hero ( Gentle Chapman)
- Fashion Victim Villain (Michelo, replete with dark colors and Spikes Of Villainy)
- Female Gaze (Domon Kasshu has been making Super Robot fanboys everywhere... vaguely uncomfortable since 1994.)
- Fetish Fuel Station Attendant (Domon, a male example)
- Finishing Move (Shining Finger and its derivatives)
- Five Man Band (All of whom are competent fighters)
- Foregone Conclusion (Any fight involving Domon, unless he's fighting a mentor character for the purposes of an Aesop.)
- Four Is Death (The Four Heavenly Kings)
- Four Girl Ensemble (Chibodee's Angels, of course)
- Gaia's Vengeance ("As the Devil Gundam saw it, the problem with the world was humanity, and eliminating mankind became its number one priority.")
- Genki Girl (Allenby, thought subverted since she's also a Tykebomb)
- Getting Crap Past The Radar (Rain's very... um... "interesting" squeals when she uses the Trace System)
- Go Nagai Sideburns (Many characters, though Master Asia's are particularly epic)
- Gondor Calls For Aid (Nearly every friend and foe throughout the series comes together to face the final threat of the Devil Gundam.)
- Good Scars Evil Scars (Domon has a cross-shaped scar on his face. Urube uses his metallic mask to cover the one that the Devil Gundam gave him as a proof of their Deal With The Devil)
- Government Conspiracy (Neo Hong Kong, and Neo Japan)
- Gratuitous English (Chibodee Crockett)
- Gundam Vs Series (God/Domon and Master/Tohou Fuhai show up in Gundam vs Gundam; Spiegel/Schwarz and Nobel/Allenby appear in NEXT)
- Heroic Sacrifice (used straight and subverted very often)
- Hitman With A Heart (Kyral Mekirel)
- Honor Before Reason (all the Shuffle Alliance fall prey to this trope now and again, but none more so than Domon)
- Horrible Judge Of Character (Chairman Karato , who inexplicably puts the deranged Urube in charge of Neo Japan's military. D'oh!)
- Considering that Urube is THAT good at lying and was one of the best Gundam Fighters in the whole world until he was defeated by Master Asia, it may be not that surprising.
- Hot Amazon (Natasha Zabikov. Allenby skirts the line)
- Hot Blooded (Everyone, even the French gentleman, the technician, and a horse)
- Hot Scientist (Rain Mikamura)
- Hot Shounen Mom (Chibodee's Missing Mom was very beautiful. Domon's own Missing Mom was older, but still easy on the eyes)
- How Do I Shot Web (Domon initially has trouble adjusting to the Burning Gundam's controls)
- Humans Are Bastards ( Master Asia's motivation for becoming a genocidal maniac)
- Husky Russkie (Slightly subverted with Argo Gulskii. While he's VERY big and possesses enormous strength, he's also remarkably mature and level-minded. Enough to be the only one in the Shuffle Alliance who did not show any signs of emotional trauma after being Brainwashed And Crazy via DG Cells)
- Hypocritical Humor (At one point, George starts berating Chibodee for being irresponsible enough to store whiskey in his Gundam's cockpit before quickly remembering that he does the exact same thing with champagne — while Giving Him The Pointer Finger with said bottle, no less. Hey, at least he picks the quality stuff.)
- Idiot Hero (Domon. Oh so much. Chibodee and Sai Saici also have their moments, but they're nowhere that bad.)
- I Got You Covered (During the Devil Gundam v.s. Everyone Else fight)
- I Have The High Ground
- I Know You Are In There Somewhere Fight (Domon does this *thrice* in the series. First, he tried it to snap his friends from DG Cell brainwashing in the Shinjuku arc, but failed. Second, towards the Brainwashed And Crazy Allenby during the Gundam Fight. And later, to Rain (who had been turned into the Devil Gundam's Seitai Unit by force) during the Grand Finale.)
- Ill Girl (Gina, the little sister of Chico from Neo Mexico. Complete with Incurable Cough Of Death. She doesn't die on-screen, but it's clear in the end of the episode that she's gonna fall victim to her illness very soon)
- Insufferable Genius ( If. Dr. Mikamura is to be believed, Domon and Kyoji's father was a prime example. He still didn't deserve what was done to him, though..)
- I Uh You Too (Domon has a few of these with Rain)
- Jerk Ass —> Jerk With A Heart Of Gold (Domon, a huge Jerk Ass at the beginning, but he *does* change with time and we still love him)
- Kick The Dog (Master Asia has several of these in the first half of the series.)
- Kill All Humans (The Devil Gundam's top priority)
- Killed Off For Real ( Schwarz Bruder and Master Asia.)
- Latex Space Suit: (Arguably this Gundam series seems to have the tightest space suits ever to appear in the franchise which is surprising as the majority of the pilots wearing them are male.
- Mad Scientists Beautiful Daughter. (HUGE subversion: We all thought Domon was the Mad Dictator's Handsome Son, but he wasn't. THEN we thought he was the Psychotic Killer's Handsome Younger Brother, but he wasn't that EITHER. *Rain*, on the other hand... .)
- Magnificent Bastard (Both Prime Minister Wong and Colonel Urube Ishikawa)
- Manipulative Bastard ( Urube, Wong, Master Asia.)
- Man Of Wealth And Taste (Prime Minister Wong)
- Mask Power (Schwarz Bruder and Urube Ishikawa)
- Mc Ninja (Two words: Schwarz Bruder)
- The Mean Brit (Gentle Chapman, after he dies and is revived as a zombie by the DG cells. Hole Came Back Wrong!)
- Meaningful Name (Schwarz Bruder is German for "Black Brother")
- The Medic (Rain)
- Memetic Badass (Master Asia)
- Also Domon and Rain as a "Memetic Sweet Couple", only Garrod and Tiffa edge them out slightly in that regard.
- Memetic Mutation (Pretty much any variation of Domon's Shining/Erupting God Finger attack, due to the ridiculous levels of Narm Charm it exudes.)
- Merchandise Driven (the Gundam Fight was created so that Bandai could sell a ton of models)
- The Messiah (Domon. Believe it or not.)
- Mighty Whitey (the Japanese version)
- Mind Rape (Episode 6, when Domon is drugged and forced to watch an holographic re-enaction of his family's downfall to see if he can really use his Super Mode (which is supposed to be powered up through anger-fueled Heroic Resolve). For worse, much later we find out it was all a lie.)
- Missing Mom (Chibodee's mom got kidnapped and maybe killed by clowns. )
- Moe (13 year old Maria Louise)
- Ms Fanservice (Rain when she suits up, Natasha during the Guyana highlands arc)
- Multinational Team (The new Shuffle Alliance)
- Murder Is The Best Solution (Neo Nepal, which opts out of sportsmanship in favor of sending their Gundam Fighter to kill the competition before the match)
- Narm Charm (It wouldn't be HALF the awesome it is if it was NOT corny and narmy). The narmiest moment was Master Asia declaring he would become... and I swear : Super Asia.
- Link.
- Or Domon's line in Episode 26: "But this time I'm a WONDER BUG!!!"
- Never Got To Say Goodbye Rain and her close classmate Saette. Domon and his mother (he does get to say goodbye to Kyoji and later gets his father back)
- New Powers As The Plot Demands (Arguably Domon in the Battle Royale arc, where he comes up with several Ass Pull attacks that are never used again to defeat his partners' various ultimate techniques.)
- Oh damn. God Shadow to a T. Nice hax there, Domon.
- Nightmare Fuel Unleaded (DG cells)
- Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot (taken to its absolute limit. For example: mecha-piloting cyborg zombies.)
- Not Good With People (Domon is callous, abrasive, and generally a bit of a cad, due to being Raised By Wolves for at least 10 years. He gets better in the second half, mainly through some timely Pet The Dog moments and even some Moments Of Heartwarming)
- Not Quite Dead ( Prime Minister Wong, who unfortunately dies roughly five minutes later)
- Oddly Named Sequel
- Omnidisciplinary Scientist (Rain patches up both people and giant robots with the same level of skill)
- One Winged Angel (The Devil Gundam is pretty much the definition of this trope)
- Partly Cloudy With A Chance Of Death (Sunrise version)
- Plucky Girl (All the females, in one way or another. Special mention goes to Cécile Holgar, a sweet-looking moeblob who stands up against punks in her very first scene and doesn't hesitate to bitchslap her boyfriend when he has an Heroic BSOD)
- Power Glows ("This hand of mine glows with an awesome POWER!" "This hand of mine is burning red!" And so on...)
- Power Incontinence (Domon's inability to control his Super Mode in the first half of the series)
- The Power Of Love (To the point where the King of Hearts himself is summoned.)
- Psycho For Hire (Michelo Chariot)
- Rage Against The Mentor (Most of the first half of the series, once Master Asia does his thing)
- Real Men Wear Pink (George is a bishonen and loves roses, but can fight as well and as passionately as the others. Chibodee has pink bangs and is a self-admitted Mommas Boy)
- Flashbacks imply that Chibodee's hair is naturally all-blue, meaning he purposely dyes his bangs pink.
- Reasonable Authority Figure (Subverted and later played straight with Karato Starts out as very incompetent and leaving almost every matter to Urube and Dr. Mikamura, but by the end of the series it's hinted that he does have the potential to become a true leader)
- Red Eyes Take Warning (Once Wong's glasses start to slip is the part when the audience realizes he's a villain)
- Redemption Equals Death Master Asia, after spending most of the series as a Card Carrying Villain, recants his dastardly deeds on his deathbed.
- Refuge In Audacity (the most ridiculous (and at the same time, wonderful) Humongous Mecha designs in all of Gundam)
- Rebellious Princess (Maria Louise of Neo France. She looks cute and sweet, but isn't afraid of either plotting her own kidnapping to attract her Knight's attention, or using a molotov cocktail to aid said knight when he's in a pinch.)
- Rogues Gallery (Michelo assembles a team of antagonists in Episode 32 on behalf on Wong)
- Rule Of Cool (Oh damn, yeah)
- Say My Name ("Raaaaaaain!" "Domoooooon!" "Chibodeeeeee! Geooooorge! Argoooo! Sai Saiciiiii!" "MASTER ASIA!")
- Scary Shiny Glasses (Wong lives for this trope.)
- Screw The Rules I Make Them (Prime Minister Wong, so much so that he could well be the trope namer.)
- Shout Out (The Nobel Gundam looks a lot like a mecha Sailor V)
- Shut Up Hannibal (Domon, all the time.)
- Slouch Of Villainy (Wong in his ridiculously awesome floating chair.)
- Snooping Little Kid (Chang, the orphan who tries to steal Domon's Gundam in Episode 27)
- Spanner In The Works (Domon Kasshu throws huge wrenches into the plans of pretty much every major villain, from Master Asia, to Prime Minister Wong, and finally derailing Urube's Xanatos Roulette)
- The Strategist (Rain, Urube, Natasha)
- Stripperiffic (The Mobile Trace System does this to you. Surprising since most of the pilots are guys. Holy Stupid Sexy Flanders!)
- Straight Arrow (The Rising Gundam's heat naginata can be turned into a bow. We even see an image of Rain in traditional Japanese archery clothes during one of her CMOA, when she uses this trick to disable the Walter Gundam *without* hitting the cockpit and killing Allenby, its Brainwashed And Crazy pilot)
- Street Urchin (Chibodee used to be one, as did his support crew)
- Stupid Sexy Flanders (The majority of the shuffle alliance but especially Domon)
- Suck My Rose (George and the Rose Gundam)
- Sunglasses At Night (Wong, who wears his signature shades around in dimly-lit underground hangars and even the privacy of his own home. Rule Of Cool, indeed.)
- Super Robot (textbook example, even though the rest of Gundam is mostly Real Robot style)
- Super Robot Wars (It's in the Game Boy version of 2, as well as F'', '' [[{{Super Robot Wars 4}} F Final, Impact, MX, A, R, J, Shin, 64, and Neo.)
- Synchronization
- Super Mode (A Hot Blooded hero cannot be without his Super Mode, its even call "Super Mode.")
- Domon and Master Asia have/gets a second one called Meikyou Shisui (Clear Mirror, Still Water). This carries with them to Super Robot Wars and is superior to the standard "Super Mode."
- Superpowered Evil Side (Allenby, who becomes 120% stronger when she goes nuts on the Berserker System.)
- Sweet Tooth (Wong, whose passion for sweets rivals that of L from Death Note)
- Team Mom (Rain to the Shuffle Alliance. Brutally subverted by Domon in the third issue of the manga, though.)
- Tear Jerker ( Master Asia, Kyouji Kasshu, may your memories live on.)
- Tomokazu Seki (Domon. This role is one of the things that cements him as one of anime's Kings of Hot Blooded)
- Tournament Arc (Almost the entire last half of the series, save the final four episodes, falls under this.)
- Transforming Mecha (Some of the weirdest in giant robot history. Highlights include Mermaid Gundam (a fish), Mandala Gundam (a Buddhist Temple bell), Matador Gundam (a giant flying cow head) & the ever popular Nether Gundam, who, as befitting his Dutch origins, becomes a windmill (unlike the others, though, there was actually a point to this. Since all one had to do to qualify for the finals was survive untill enough combatants had been eliminated from the tourney hiding in plain sight to avoid being attacked, while not guaranteeing victory, was able to significantly increase the country's standing). Domon's Gundams may also count, being robots that turn into more powerful robots.)
- Treacherous Advisor ( Urube, to Domon and Karato.)
- Tykebomb ( Allenby)
- The Unfavorite (Implied to be Domon, who left home at an early age because he was Book Dumb and couldn't measure up to his (much) older brother Kyouji, a Badass Bookworm, in his father's eyes. Subverted, since Dr. Kasshu isn't shown as evil towards his younger son, so Domon still cares for him more than enough to make his dad one of the causes why he's fighting. And the first time they actually talk in the series towards the end, when the old man stops being a Human Popsicle and tells Domon how proud he is of him, qualifies as a Crowning Moment Of Heartwarming)
- Unstoppable Rage (Subverted: Rage is eventually stoppable... calm is truly unstoppable.)
- The Virus (DG-Cells. It also doubles as The Corruption for Gundam pilots, as the stuff also grants their mechs some of the Devil Gundam's regenerative abilities.)
- Weaponized Landmark (The Statue of Liberty on the Neo-American space colony)
- Well Intentioned Extremist (Master Asia. Trust me.)
- Whip It Good (The Nobel Gundam's main weapon is a beam whip)
- The White Prince (George)
- Victorious Childhood Friend ( Rain. Maybe, Maria Louise.)
- Villain Decay (Prime Minister Wong, in rather anvilicious fashion to make way for Urube's last-minute Starscream Gambit)
- Writer Revolt (the plot was completely changed by the director and several people left production)
- World Of Cardboard Speech (Domon's confession to Rain at the end of the series.)
- World Of Ham
- Wuxia (With Giant Mecha. No wonder this show is both awesome and cheesy.)
- Xanatos Gambit (Some strategies during the Gundam Fight lay heavily on this.)
- Xanatos Roulette ( Urube pulls a frighteningly good and convoluted one to have Domon and Rain doing his dirty work and use the whole Gundam Fight to his profit, even incorporating others' Xanatos Roulettes into his plan.)
- Xanatos Sucker ( Master Asia for Wong's Xanatos Gambit, Domon for Urube's. Later subverted when Domon tears Urube's scheme down around him.)
- Your Days Are Numbered (Gina Rodríguez, the Neo-Mexican Ill Girl)
- Zettai Ryouiki (Cécile, in her normal attire. Rain, when she suits up. Suited-up!Allenby is a curious case: one of her "boots" is much longer than the other...)
