* CharClone: Deconstructed in Graham Aker. While he ''is'' blond, and ''does'' have a custom mobile suit, his identity is never in doubt, his badass nickname is just a nickname, and he doesn't wear the mask to hide his identity, but rather due to hideous scars given to him by the ostensible hero of the series. (He also has no LongLostRelative.)

* ActorAllusion:
** [[spoiler:Ribbons Almark]], who shares [[Creator/ToruFuruya a Japanese voice actor]] with Amuro Ray, pilots both the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam RX-78]]-inspired 0 Gundam & the Guncannon-inspired Reborns Cannon/Gundam.
*** Furuya also voices E. A. Ray, a member of Celestial Being shown in flashbacks to its earliest days. Even better, his first name was eventually revealed to be "Eternal", calling to mind the ending theme for the original ''Gundam'', whose name can be translated to "Eternal Amuro".
** A more subtle reference: in the first ED Setsuna F. Seiei is eating an apple, referring to [[Manga/DeathNote another role]] that both Creator/MamoruMiyano and Creator/BradSwaile are famous for.
** In regards to ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeed'', this is not the first time either Creator/LisaAnnBeley voiced the buxom brunette captain of a starship or Creator/ChantalStrand voiced a pink-haired {{Bridge Bunn|ies}}y.
** Creator/RichardIanCox is the voice of another character who engages in a lot of SayMyName, from Manga/{{Inuyasha}} (KAGOME!) to Allelujah (MARIE!). Also befitting another previous role of his, Gundam Kyrios is a white and orange-painted mecha, much like [[Anime/{{ZoidsNewCentury}} Liger Zero Schneider]].

** Season 2 becomes an outright criticism of Gundams and Gundam protagonists in general. The A-Laws are introduced as an even darker mirror to what Celestial Being attempted in season 1, committing massacres and destroying entire nations using the same Gundam / GN technology the protagonists did. The villainous Innovators evoke the main continuity's Newtypes and their instrumentalized ShadowArchetype, the Cyber Newtypes. The cast even includes the Japanese voice actors of previous ''Gundam'' protagonists in antagonist roles, such as [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ Judau]]'s VA Creator/KazukiYao and [[Anime/TurnAGundam Loran]]'s VA Creator/RomiPark. Especially of note is the main villain, [[spoiler:Ribbons Almark, a dark mirror to the original ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'''s Amuro Ray. Not only is Ribbons played by Amuro's Japanese VA Creator/ToruFuruya, he espouses corrupted versions of Amuro's beliefs in the post-''0079'' works, and pilots 00 equivalents of both the original RX-78 Gundam and the Nu Gundam]]. For whatever good there is in ''Gundam'' as a franchise, the Gundams and the protagonists themselves are inherently problematic and easily twisted to support outright evils, and thus should not be held up as ideals to be followed.
