* AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent: Whereas ''Sword Art Online: Special Edition'' currently only has a mere cameo from Yumi and her family, Keiko is flat out a main character in ''Reflection Code''. {{Justified}} in that she's originally from Japan but she's explicitly stated to be studying abroad in France at numerous occasions whenever she's mentioned. ''Reflection Code'' flat out confirms this to be the case as she attends Kadic as a college student and part-time staff as well. As for her fitting this trope as well, her reveal as part of the cast is a WhamShot because of the fact it basically means Jérémie's role in the fic thus far currently has nothing to do with the others for the time being.

* ShownTheirWork: Not directly, but in the Author's Note of his debut, Willaim's strength has nothing to do with the Zweihänder or its real-life counterpart; an actual greatsword in real-life doesn't tend to get heavier than 10 lbs./4.5 kg, with fictional greatswords being the ones notorious for weighing a lot (such as [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Cloud's Buster Sword]] at 80 lbs./36.3 kg). What the author means by this is that, rather than using his weapon as a means of showing his strength, he had William pick up and lift Jim over his shoulder since he knew regardless of which weight you would use for his sword, [[BigFun Jim]] [[RealityEnsues was already going to be heavier regardless.]] A lower estimate for Jim's weight, just to give you an idea, would be 300 lbs./136.078 kg, which is more than thrice the weight of Cloud's Buster Sword, and is absolutely heavier than the real world Zweihänder by a long shot.

* RealityEnsues: '''Very literally''' at that, beginning with the second to last major blow to the facility's integrity; the materialization of a Liquiraptor in the real world. On Lyoko, Liquiraptors are effectively TheGoomba because of them being relatively weak in life points and doing only so much damage directly even when in contact with their liquid metal forms. In the real world? Said liquid metal forms, which are already boiling hot, cause toxic gases to be emitted from it which poison the nearby atmosphere it wanders through, and its molten metal body actually does even more damage to real entities than it could've otherwise done on Lyoko by a long shot. Its kernel sphere, which is normally very weak in life points on Lyoko, is borderline MadeOfIndestructium in the real world. It ultimately takes getting frozen solid to absolute zero to finally take out this particular Liquiraptor.

A gigantic cassowary-esque avian creature with an uncanny resemblance to [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith a certain Space General]], and it's no coincidence the two share quite a large killing prowess either. While later confirmed to be of alien origin in terms of the base organism, the extensive cybernetic augmentations are all manmade.



A humanoid entity which originated from another dimension and became a lab rat for the facility to experiment with Mirror M's DNA with, as the original life-form was a very primitive predatory animal that was otherwise super ahead of it's own time. Considering it's low intelligence, a tracking device is planted in it's head somewhere which is meant to serve as a control harness on it, often relaying orders to it directly. At first a human, all but stated to be Megalodon, was at the helm of their control. Garuda, however, had apparently overrun the hive not too long ago.



An Alpaca-esque creature with the mind of a human in terms of intelligence, and a very bizarre, gigantic maul that is hidden by it's mane being mistaken as just being a long neck. It has been confirmed by the documents on it that a one of a kind albino specimen had been created and fully cultivated, only for it to have suddenly vanished somewhere in the mountains of Europe. Nobody has seen this specimen in the flesh since, and it is worth tracking devices have no effect on Stalka because of their ability to figure out where it's placed on them and their tendency to forcefully remove it at all costs.



A ''Dromaeosaurus''-like creature whose entire body is made of liquid, molten iron, and is able to use a telekinetic power in a solid brain to keep it's shape and move across terrain. The complexity of this AI life-form has lead to it and the Diatrex being on an unofficial ban-list due to how impractical it was to materialize both creatures, with the Diatrex being too powerful and too big to keep under control, and the Liquiraptors being a biohazard to anything in range.



An unusual parallel to the Hornets from X.A.N.A.'s pool of monsters, with no real explanation for there existence. They're not part of the documented files on the other Garuda monsters, either, nor are they loyal to X.A.N.A.. As a matter of fact, they attack and kill Hornets on sight with such a high priority that they stupidly disregard anything else at the moment just to kill their hated target.

* SkewedPriorities: If a Hornet is on the scene, these things will drop what they are doing just to tear their rival to shreds while putting their own lives at risk by completely disregarding anything else nearby in the process.

diamonds. It's only outright weakspot are it's softer eyes, which a direct shot fired into them will destroy it's brain in seconds flat.


Added DiffLines:

An upgraded Diatrex with shielded eyes and armor made of a molten mixture of diamond and titanium alloy now having solidified in it's completion. In spite of this obvious StoryBreakerPower, it's intended to be the first of the AI monsters to be capable of giving Mirror M an even fight. [[spoiler:And is the first clue we get that apparently Mirror M has primordial history with the Diatrex as a whole, implying that perhaps mankind didn't create Diatrex at all and they were merely clones of the same origin as Mirror M.]]


Added DiffLines:

An unusual, crafty beast with the power of a locomotive once it reaches top speed. It is effectively a living battering ram in how it functions. However, the sheer blunt impact it deals leaves an incredible recoil affect across the entirety of the AI's senses, giving it quite a bit of trouble getting back up after an attack. However, to make up for this, it's body armor intensifies and gains temporary additional strength while in this state.

On Lyoko, Liquiraptors are effectively TheGoomba because of them being relatively weak in life points and doing only so much damage directly even when in contact with their liquid metal forms. In the real world? Said liquid metal forms, which are already boiling hot, cause toxic gases to be emitted from it which poison the nearby atmosphere it wanders through, and its molten metal body actually does even more damage to real entities than it could've otherwise done on Lyoko by a long shot. Its kernel sphere, which is normally very weak in life points on Lyoko, is borderline MadeOfIndestructium in the real world. It ultimately takes getting frozen solid to absolute zero to finally take out this particular Liquiraptor.

* ShoutOut: Not ''[[ExactWords directly]]'' to the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay T-1000]], but close enough to where it still counts. The actual reference Liquiraptor is a direct reference to is an obscure enemy from ''VideoGame/SpyroEnterTheDragonfly'' called an "R-1000" which is a liquid metal ''Velociraptor'' type of Riptoc, which itself is a direct ShoutOut to the T-1000.

Odd is normally a joking fool at times of a HormoneAddledTeenager; what Yumi sees in the light of the prior events is a well-behaved Odd who is too quiet for anyone's own good.

* BreathWeapon: Its head can fold open and reveal an energy cannon inside. A mere blast of air from it is enough to kill a person on the spot in this state.
* {{Expy}}: Of the Tarantula X.A.N.A. monster, in terms of its introduction anyways.
* EvilIsNotAToy: The reason for its creation and the biomechanics of which it functions are a last warning to Megalodon for him to stop tinkering with Garuda's toys, since Garuda is getting kind of annoyed with Megalodon at this point. Literally the only reason Garuda doesn't immediately call attention to this is to demonstrate Steamjaw's power against the Garage Kids on his own merits first.



* JackOfAllStats: Absurd durability, strong resistance to telekinesis, unmatched firepower, and so far the fasted Garuda monster excluding Garuda itself. Unfortunately, it's got exactly one weakness; it's about as smart as a sack of hammers.



* {{Trainstopping}}: {{Discussed}} in regards to attempting to stop Steamjaw would be like trying to stop a train.

* HellIsThatNoise: It's "roars" are akin to train whistles going off full steam, and considering the reputation it quickly develops among the Garage Kids, this very much causes alarm for all involved when one of them shows.
* SNKBoss: It's very first outing with the Garage Kids has it absolutely wreck house with all of them. It's so loaded with armor and weapons that Garuda actually launches an attack on a tower merely to materialize a single one of them into the real world as a field test alone!

* PsychicPowers: She has them, plain and simple; the exact nature of her abilities has been unverified as far as limits or harmful effects to anyone, including herself. Yumi appears to be pretty on edge whenever she uses this power in any capacity, indicating a potential tie to her emotions for her to be able to use it and, when she uses this ability unknowingly in Chapter 6 during a FreakOut, she appears to be borderline unstable at times regarding her ability to control this power.

* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: His artwork is drawn in a more realistic take on a human's face, minus of course the exaggerated grin, and said giant grin makes him look like a real-life take on the [[MemeticMutation memetic Troll face]], something just to make him look unsettling overall.

Not only that, but in addition to the shark-like grin, he's also got the other aspect the real ''Megalodon'' is known for; he's '''huge''', very physically fit as well.



* BigBrotherIsWatching: Lowell often wonders if the entire reason the staff meeting rooms also double as a workout gym is because Mago specifically wants Megalodon to keep watch of everyone the other facility staff say or do, considering Megalodon is so physically strong and agile that nobody can realistically take him out. Ken's ''tried'' to take him out, but he lost his organic legs in the process due to Megalodon ''snapping them like twigs''...



* ElephantInTheLivingRoom: He's generally off in a corner of any given meeting group with the other staff of the facility, just casually lifting dumbbells and working out like it's no big deal... if it weren't for the fact he's casually lifting 900 lbs. worth of weight like it's nothing special, and everyone in the room just tries their best to ignore him since aside from Megalodon's presence, he's usually not all that important to the meeting; what matters more is is he listens in on something that he could use as ammo against you.



* {{Expy}}: Of Rourke from ''Disney/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' in terms of overall motives and physical appearance. One could argue the two are a case of an AlternateCompanyEquivalent, considering just how much of the central characterization is when it comes to HumansAreTheRealMonsters and their insatiable {{Greed}}.



* TheGiant: Perhaps about 7' tall or more, and weighing over 300 lbs. of nothing but refined muscle mass. Despite his size, he's by no means slow be it [[LightningBruiser land speed]] or [[GeniusBruiser in intelligence]].



* HeroicBuild: Very large in his torso, but his lower body isn't any slouch either, meaning he's by all means ''massive''.



* {{Irony}}: He's actually lower on the chain of command than Ken is, but due to a recent demotion Ken got from Mago, both Megalodon and Ken both equally report to Mago first above all else, although Megalodon is still somewhat unnerved by Ken's forcefulness.



** The kid gloves come off with his overall mood by the time Chapter 7 rolls around, considering he's kind of uncharacteristically pissed though not without good reason.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: [[{{Megalodon}} Take a guess.]]]] [[spoiler:Though Ken does call him "Mitch" in Chapter 7, but that's to be expected since Ken would easily already know Megalodon's full name.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Considering Ken is technically his boss during the events of Chapter 7, Megalodon immediately becomes his whipping boy for a moment or few as Ken scolds him immensely for his recklessness with Mirror M's cells. However, the moment that's all done with and he goes to deal with Aelita, he's beyond super pissed and takes his pent up anger towards Ken out against [[spoiler:Aelita]].
* RealityEnsues: His physical strength and surprising agility makes it impossible for Ken to defeat him in a head on confrontation; even with Ken's revolver in mind, he can't ready it fast enough before Megalodon already has him disarmed and pinned.

* CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys: Jérémie ends up {{Deconstructing}} this trope by proving [[spoiler:he's horrifyingly incompetent as a fighter ''and'' a leader, Mirror M adapts to virtually every attempt brainstormed by Jérémie and becomes increasingly stronger with each attempt to kill him, Mirror M's unleashing his BreathWeapon devastates a good chunk of Paris all because ''Jérémie unwittingly removed Mirror M's restraint preventing him from using it.'' As for the main point why he's a {{Deconstruction}} of this trope, he's not only the incompetent leader and fighter as a whole, but has an unyielding desire for knowledge and socialization that refuses to ever let himself just simply surrender to just ''anything'' in general, no matter how major nor mundane.]]

Only to be {{Reconstructed}} in that [[spoiler:Jérémie had given Keiko just enough time to study Aelita in isolation as to safely determine the usefulness in having Aelita be used to slay Mirror M, which in turn has William resorting to Jérémie as the leader again because he knows Aelita refuses to talk to anyone else other than him.]]
