History Awesome / KaitouSaintTail

* In episode 29 Yabe, a thief hired by the mayor of the town of Sakuraoka, sends a fake Saint Tail warning note to announce he'll steal a crystal sculpture borrowed from Sakuraoka, prompting Saint Tail to try and steal it first to prevent Yabe from getting it. What does Asuka jr. do? First he actually captures Saint Tail after she had defeated all the guards, then, when Yabe steals the sculpture while he was busy, he leaves Saint Tail and chases him, even ''jumping on his car's roof'', and staying there until his hands were numb. He still managed to see where he was coming from.

* In episode 28, Rina and Asuka jr. both ''get the drop on Saint Tail'': the former by dropping a rigged theatre curtain on her (Saint Tail had disabled the officers supposed to do it, and Rina stepped in), and Asuka jr. jumped and grabbed her while she was under it. She escapes, but that's only because the idol who Saint Tail had just helped cried out to let her go, causing Asuka jr. to reflexively let her go after Rina had removed the curtain.

She escapes, but that's only because the idol who Saint Tail had just helped cried out to let her go, causing Asuka jr. to reflexively let her go after Rina had removed the courtain.

* In episode 25, the police brings in Kaede Kitamura, a super detective from Tokyo, to arrest Saint Tail, and, thanks to the use of cars and electronic trackers, she nearly catches Saint Tail multiple times (at least until Saint Tail notices the tracker and [[CrowningMomentOfFunny dupes her into trying to arrest Rina]]). Asuka jr., temporarily off the case, comes much closer using only a bike and his brain, and only fails ''because Kitamura gets in the way'' to the point of having him forcibly locked up. For obvious reasons, Asuka jr. is back on the case by the end of the episode.

* Episode 23 reveals that Saint Tail is becoming TheDreaded for the town's crooks, because she got half of them arrested. We're also shown a montage of what had been multiple [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Offscreen Moments of Awesome]], in which Saint Tail caused the arrest or captured some crooks and left them for the police.

** Another trick first used by Genichiro: in-door ''snowing''. Complete with cold.

* In episode 20, a professor Hyuga swore he'd use his advanced technology to reveal Saint Tail's identity. Saint Tail defeated his technology with ''magnets''.

*** She does it again later in the episode. This time the awesomeness is for Asuka jr.: he ''deduced'' which one was the real Saint Tail (he couldn't tell the difference, this time, but could guess it).

*** She does it again later in the episode. This time, Asuka jr. chased the right one.

* In episode 18, the villain was a rich man who had stolen a lot of artworks, and [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections bragged about his friendship with the mayor to scare Asuka jr.]] Arrested and caught red-handed by both Asukas for the theft ''and'' attempted murder.

* Episode 15 has the playful and non-indicatively named dog Little facing three jewel thieves. As soon as Saint Tail eliminated the gun from the fight, Little ''pulverized'' them.

* In the [[{{Filler}} anime-only]] episode 14, Saint Tail hacked in a video game console ''not connected to internet'' (that was also before internet use became widespread). She then stole a bicycle by making it ''fly'' in a ShoutOut to {{ET}}.

* Saint Tail's apparition in episode 13 to steal Princess Rosa's Mirror: [[IHaveTheHighGround she appeared on a decorative chandelier]] while filling the room with the flowers named after the mirror's original owner, Princess Rosa.

** And for some tricks better than usual... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The March of the Saint Tails]].

*** That, and Genichiro's version: he switched himself with Eimi ''while holding Meimi's hand''. Meimi didn't notice until she opened her eyes and saw she was now holding her mother's hand...

** The anime version makes this even better by showing where the switching magic used to pull it off (by replacing Saint Tail with the male moustached substitute) came from: earlier that day, her father had shown Meimi part of that trick... [[AwesomenessByAnalysis And she reconstructed it]].

* Rina discovering that Meimi is Saint Tail in episode 8, and not letting herself be fooled by Meimi's attempts at disproving her findings (at least until [[ItMakesSenseInContext Rina touched Saint Tail's moustache]] in episode 10).

-->'''Asuka sr.:''' "[[GenreSavvy I've already investigated. I hear your Dagger of Yato is a genuine replica.]]"

* In episode 7, Asuka jr. actually succeeded in surprising and capturing Saint Tail. She only escaped because Rina, after being pranked by Saint Tail while in the surveillance room, attacked with tear gas without knowing she was already caught...

** The group of tuxedo-wearing dancing kangaroos from the prequel chapter is one of her strangest tricks... And one of the most impossible.
