History YMMV / CaptainEarth

* MemeticMutation: Jokes that compare this anime with ''WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers'' have circulated around the web since day one.

* NoYay: [[spoiler:Mao kissing Setsuna]] in episode 11.

* TearJerker: The first few minutes of episode one can hit too close to home.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Eiji Arashi, who appears in the fifth episode. Aside from his suspicious similarities to [[Anime/StarDriver Head]], him being [[spoiler:Teppei's]] father should have made ''some'' sort of impact onto his son, who had never even known he exists. His status as a criminal charged for assault and attempted murder and his in contrast really nice behaviour towards [[spoiler:his son]] Teppei and Akari hinted at him being somewhat morally ambiguous. At the end of his episode, he is taken off the plot in a way that would usually make you think he starts doing his own thing in the background for a while until becoming important again later, but the day never comes. In fact, when in a late episode Daichi, Hana and Teppei talk about their parents, Eiji is not brought up at all, as if everyone had completely forgotten he exists. Considering that [[spoiler:Teppei]] was somewhat uncomfortable around him and not very keen on the whole "father" thing, one might have expected him to raise his voice. In short, he was there for one single episode, introduced and disposed of like an important character, but then never seen again, despite his potential.

* HoYay: As usual in this kind of series, Daichi and Teppei have quite a bit of this going on, what's with Teppei's comments about how he likes Daichi's attitude and all. It helps that Akari apparently ships it too and the boys never go into denial when she teases them about it.

* LesYay: Episode 9 makes it clear that Moco has absolutely no problem with kissing girls.

* WhatAnIdiot: The Ark Faction would rather keep humanity's brightest and best in cold sleep, so that the human race can rebuild if the Kiltgang make it to Earth. However, for their plan to succeed, they need the ''Blume'', which only Hana can control. So what do they do? Antagonize her by trying to kidnap her and [[spoiler: attempting to kill her friends and lover]]. Repeatedly.
** Gets even worse when it's taken into account that they're actively sabotaging GLOBE and the Intercept Faction so that their "contingency" becomes necessary.

* AccidentalInnuendo: [[http://i.imgur.com/Mj7bLRu.jpg Look closely at]] Daichi and Teppei's BackToBackBadasses pose in Episode 11 when they summon their Livlasters, and... You get the idea.

* AwesomeMusic: [[http://musicinanime.tumblr.com/post/97178288899/mugen-no-hana-ai-kayano-anime-captain-earth "Mugen no Hana"]], the song Hana sings on various occasions. Especially the version accompanied by orchestral music that appears in one of the trailers and which she sings in-universe twice to [[spoiler:fuel Teppei's Machine Goodfellow]]. Sadly, it hasn't been used since, but there is also an almost equally awesome instrumental version that plays in the scene where [[spoiler:Hana gets her own Livlaster]].

-->'''Daichi''': Sometimes… I think there's something wrong with me, with the way I am.

* FanNickname: Yamakan for the Salty Dog representative due to their similar appearances.
