Tropes

  • Downer Ending: The episode closes with both Captain and Bakunetsumaru injured from Ashuramaru's attacks, and Cobramaru secretly following them to SDG headquarters.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Ashuramaru is a completely serious villain who badly injures two of our main characters. The entire season gets more serious after he shows up.
  • Noodle Incident: What were Bakunetsumaru and Kujakumaru (Ashuramaru) fighting over? Only those who've read the SD Gundam Force Gaiden will know.
  • Taking the Bullet: Captain shields Bakunetsumaru from Ashuramaru's spear this way.
  • You Have Failed Me: Non lethal version. The Commander has had enough of the Terrible Trio failing and simply beats them again. Rather than sending them back out again he sends Ashuramaru instead.
