* Before My Body Is Dry | Don't Lose My Way either lyrical or instrumental, normally plays when Ryuko and Senketsu are in sync with each other which makes it seem like a normal insert song. [[spoiler: Not really though, as it's revealed in the OST that there are two singers in that song, one female and one male. And the lyrics pretty much describe the relationship between the two. Seems like they are not fully in sync yet, as we have yet to go pass the part where the woman is done singing and the next verse begins, sorta like how Ryuko does not always heed what Senketsu trys to tell her. Like her rage taking over and corrupting him.]]

* Every time Ryuko uses her finishing move the target's Goku uniform is destroyed. This is a symbol of power, and your uniform determines your caste in society. What this boils down to is ''Ryuko's finishing move will essentially put the target into poverty.''

** It's been established that ''any'' fight that a Goku Uniform user participates in and loses carries as a consequence the stipulation that the loser is brought down to No-Star, not just the fights that Ryuuko is in (e.g. The horde of One-Stars ganging up on the Sumo Club President in episode 8 and then dividing his wrestling gear between themselves when he falls.)Then there's the fact that Ryuuko actually rarely instigates fights while at Hounnoji Academy, with most of her battles beginning with a Club President either ambushing her or threatening Mako. And the kicker that most of the student body is happy to stay out of Ryuuko's way, but Satsuki either bribes them into fighting her (Two-Star Uniform status to anyone willing to start a club and fight Ryuuko in episode 7, with promised Three-Star status if they win) or threatens them (Boxing Club President in the first episode said he would have lost his status anyway if he didn't find Ryuuko before the end of the day after she escaped their first fight). Which goes to show just how little of a shit Satsuki gives for anyone who's under her or her inner circle.

Considering that Junketsu tries to immediately consume [[BigBad Satsuki]] when she wore it and Senketsu might have thought about it during the above situation but spared it for Ryuko's sake, Maiko has no idea how lucky she is to be alive even though she gets expelled.]]

* The things that Ryuko and Satsuki say after their TransformationSequence differ greatly as a reflection of their relationship with their Kamui. To elaborate, Ryuko says "Life Fiber Synchronize", indicating that she and Senketsu move as one, while Satsuki says "Life Fiber Override", explicitly stating that she is Junketsu's master. This also speaks of their mastery of their Kamui, as Ryuko and Senketsu have a chance of going berserk if one of them is out of sync, while Satsuki is always confident that she is in control of Junketsu's power.

** In other words, a textbook case of ConfirmationBias.



* The surprise at [[spoiler:Nui Harime being Ryuko's father's killer instead of Satsuki]] is actually a textbook example of ConfirmationBias. In Ryuko's flashbacks [[spoiler:Isshin's killer looks increasingly like Satsuki]] whenever the flashback is repeated, since that's what ''Ryuko thinks'' happened.

* In her flashbacks, Ryuko's image of her father's killer slowly but subtly changes to someone who looks like Satsuki [[spoiler: before being revealed as Nui Harime]]. In other words, Ryuko's becoming so obsessed with Satsuki to the point where she might be convinced that she was the one who killed her father. It becomes even more brilliant when you go back to her first flashback in episode 1 and realize that her memory of the killer from back then had twin-pigtails [[spoiler: just like Harime]].

* Part of above, but when Ryuuko challenges all of the Elite Four at once they decline in favor of one-on-one battles. while powerful alone, all of their abilities would have stepped on each other's toes and done more harm than good. Along with the Jakuzure/Sanageyama example above, Inumuta has been shown to have a weakness to wide area-of-effect skills and couldn't calculate Ryuuko's actions and dodge the crazy flaying of Gamagoori's whips at the same time. Jakuzure would probably kill everyone with her missiles as well.
