* BishonenLine: In the third direct encounter with the crew of the Outlaw Star, Harry fights with a bulky suit with arms longer than his torso with two gun torrents on the shoulders- while dangerous in long range, it is clumsy to maneuver in and it's easily taken down once Harry's fallen on his back with no means of fighting back when Gene guns him down. When his upgraded suit made by Gwen when they enter the Leyline, is a streamlined, form-fitting body suit that greatly enhances his physical properties including homing spike missiles and a mini-machine in his hand. Given that it manages to break Hazanko's mask- implied to be an impossible task to do even as a skilled Tao Master, the implications are that had he faced anyone else, including Gene with his limited Caster Guns and the remaining Anten Seven, he would've come up on top.
Added DiffLines:
* TheWorfEffect: It works in two ways. Harry loses to Hazanko to show how much of a threat he is compared to even a greatly augmented cyborg. However, destroying Hazanko's mask, an implied impossible task that not even other Tao Masters are capable of, implies that had Harry faced any of the other Anten Seven members, he would've had a far easier time dealing with them and would've likely cornered even Gene given how limited his ammunition is and how blindingly fast his speed and reflexes were. So Harry had the misfortune to face the one person who would conventionally one-shot him and survive the encounter.

Gene. Both have extraordinarily bad luck in getting what they want. The difference is that Gene's bad luck comes from reality causing him to be perpetually in poverty from having to deal with the maintenance of the Outlaw Star and the consequences of his adventures while managing to pave his own way in the world and proving to be very competent when it matters. Tobigera, while an implied skilled fighter, is an inept assassin with extraordinary amounts of bad luck both on mission and in duties [[spoiler: ordered to stay behind and having the misfortune of being unceremoniously assimilated into Hazanko because he just happened to be there when the latter was going mad with power]] while simply accepting them and not taking initiative to take control of his life.

Had Jim and the others been aware of what Hammyo's personality and identity were off duty, perhaps things would've turned off differently. If Hammyo had been more honest and had more misgivings about her profession, she would've come to the same conclusions as Shimi to leave the group before things got too extreme.
