* LesYay: Ennil El and Toniya. First, Ennil gives Toniya a nice dress as a gift. Then, when Toniya wears the dress to dinner with Ennil, Witz assumes it's a date and she's teasingly ambiguous about it. (Granted, they spend part of their "date" talking about their romantic prospects with men.) Later, when Ennil [[spoiler:betrays the crew]], she tries to make sure Toniya will be safe. And in the GrandFinale, [[spoiler:Ennil and Toniya ditch their new boyfriends Roybea and Witz to drive off together]].



* RealWomenNeverWearDresses: '''DEFIED''' with Tiffa. Despite her timid, soft spoken, fearful, and even somewhat submissive nature, there haven't been any complaints about her, nor does anyone [[TheScrappy truly hate her]], which really says something!

* CompleteMonster: Seidel Rasso, leader of the Space Revolutionary Army. In the aftermath of a war that nearly wiped out humanity, Rasso became the leader of the twelve million people living on the colony of Cloud 9. Turning it into a PoliceState, Rasso suppressed all dissent, and preached a MasterRace philosophy, founded on the notion that since [[PsychicPowers Newtypes]] could only be [[TelepathicSpacemen born in space]], the colonists, rather than the people of Earth, should control the destiny of the human race. [[StrawHypocrite Knowing this to be false]], Rasso also kept all information about Newtypes on Earth quiet, while gearing up for another war. Destroying the rebellious colony of Satelicon, including its largely civilian population, with [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill photon torpedoes]] in order to consolidate his power, Rasso had his right-hand man, Nichola, arrested and summarily executed for [[EvilIsNotPacifist suggesting peace talks]] with the New Earth Federation, and tried to use a KillSat to exterminate those humans remaining on Earth. When the supercomputer DOME revealed that Newtypes were really no different from the rest of humanity, Rasso [[IgnoredEpiphany refused to accept it]], even as his {{archenemy}} (and ardent Newtype hater) Fixx Bloodman of the NEF reconsidered his own position. Pushing his own lies to the end, Rasso's last act was to violate a ceasefire between himself and Bloodman, ranting about how [[{{Muggles}} Oldtypes]] like the NEF president were all scum who deserved to die.

* HarsherInHindsight: A meta-textual example. When the show first came out, the whole concept of [[spoiler:"drone mobile suit weapons controlled by one person to cause mass destruction"]] seemed a little out there, and perhaps contributed to some of the trouble Japanese fans had suspending their disbelief. Come TheNewTens, and all of a sudden the aforementioned seems '''''creepily''''' prescient more than anything, and gives the whole show a lot more teeth in its messages.

unfortunate implications need citations.


* UnfortunateImplications: Ennil El's entire first arc is based around her wanting to kill Garrod because he refused to sleep with her after she broke into his room in the middle of the night. This is treated as something the audience should sympathise with, which is deeply awkward and uncomfortable for some, and conveys {{Double Standard}}s towards both men ("you are NOT allowed to say no to a girl who wants to sleep with you, or she'll go nuts on you or others") and women ("if a guy refuses your offer to sleep with him, then the 'logical' reaction is to go crazy on him and others"). Ennil ''is'' genuinely screwed up [[BrokenBird for]] [[DisappearedDad already]] [[DoomedHometown present]] [[DarkAndTroubledPast reasons]], but ''still''.

* TheWoobie: Tifa

* WhatAnIdiot: Early in the show, Garrod has no idea about teamwork, blunders because of it, and tries to correct by doing something equally stupid. He spaces out while helping to load cargo and injures one of the crew. He feels terrible and tries to make up for it by doing a solo raid on a defunct nuclear reactor... without scouting it out or considering how safe it is (not safe at all), and he gets in over his head with Ennil El's Vultures. Jamil is hurt bailing him out during the second sunrise[[note]]ignoring the error that nuclear ''reactors'' don't become nuclear ''bombs'' when they melt down[[/note]] so Garrod feels terrible and gets a WhatTheHellHero from Sala. So he ''sells the Gundam''. The incredibly powerful Gundam with a WaveMotionGun that can turn forests to glass that should not be allowed into just anyone's hands. It's even more frustrating that he's smart about making the sale by ensuring he can't just be murdered and robbed for it.
