* FightSceneFailure: At the start of the OVA, when Ikuro is on the roof of the train, Kasuminome orders to fire at him... while they're ''below'' on the wagon's platform. Thus, by shooting up at Ikuro, they somehow manage to hit the ''train's roof''

Added DiffLines:

* VanillaProtagonist: Ikuro doesn't have much of a personality outside of some generic heroic traits. While this is somewhat justified by his status as an AmnesiacHero, considering the parasite in his brain gets more CharacterDevelopment than he does, he borders on being a DecoyProtagonist.

** It’s a bit hard to take some of the villains seriously when the giant killer mandrill is called ''Martin'' and the powerful pyshic warrior is called ''Walken''.

Added DiffLines:

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The OVA overall has some ''really'' good and fluid animation, but particularly ''anything'' involving Baoh’s transformations and the various Phenomenons he uses.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Due to the OVA being only 45 minutes long, a lot of content was cut from the manga and a lot of people feel that it suffers heavily from it because it omitted stuff like Iruko’s fight with Martin and the old couple who look after Ikuro and Sumire.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjbCyIAKIF8 “Eternal Soldier”]], the song that plays during the credits, is fittingly soothing.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JEWThJhL1Y The English version]] is no slouch either. It’s a shame a full version of it was never released.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Sophine in the OVA. Despite her being SparedByTheAdaptation, she really doesn’t get to do much aside from being Kasuminome’s right hand woman (who, like him, also states the obvious), making one wonder what was the point of keeping her alive for so long compared to the manga.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Narm}}: The dub is full of these due to the large amount of moments where the characters are pointing out the flippin’ obvious... and the less-than-stellar performances don’t help. Most famously: '''BAOH HAS A LASER CANNON!!''' [[labelnote:Note]] [[WebVideo/AnimeAbandon No shit!]] [[/labelnote]]
