** Gourai has developed the tendency to kiss the other FA girls in VR battle as a form of 'shock therapy' as of episode 5 after doing it to Stylet in episode 2. Ao and Baselard clearly enjoy watching it happen from outside the VR arena, and Baselard explicitly says "Wow, this is getting really interesting!" while giggling. Keep in mind that ''Baselard'' was the one to give Gourai this idea.

** In episode 5, Gourai helps Architect get unstuck from her LogicBomb with a small kiss and a CoolDownHug. Architect is touched by her gesture and repays the favour by getting downloaded into a physical body so she can meet Gourai for real.

** ''Lab Days'' shows us that most of the researchers working on FA Girls are ladies, and that even the Materia Twins in the lab have the same fundamental 'yuri sadist troll' personality, indicating that some female Frame Advance engineers and developers love the ladies and have projected their forbidden desires into the FA Girls they are creating. Fujisaki was ''quite'' accomodating of Baselard's request to have Gourai and Stylet over for a sleepover, after all, and she all but squees hard over their growing bond when they work together to help Baselard assemble her beam rifle.


Added DiffLines:

** The Materia Twins are extremely close for twins; in the anime they are never far from each other, are always seen hand-in-hand, embracing, or practically feeling each other up, and they even share a room in the bookshelf-turned-FA Girl-hostel.

** Those Kotobuki Godhands cost a pretty penny, and with all the paints, sanding tools, hobby knives, cutting mats, topcoats, and fume hoods will add up quickly. If you're taking customization further, expect to spring for plastic cement, dremel-esque precision drills and their bits, epoxy putty and other molding parts, casting putty and resins, and other precision fabrication tools.
** On the conventional shopping list, expect the investment costs to rise as you begin harvesting MSG weapon and armor kits, as well as classical Frame Arms mecha or other plamo kits to cannibalize for parts.
** While you could get away from handmade furniture, shopping for compatible 1/12 scale furniture from Figma, AZONE and Revoltech accessory catalogues will get pricey fast. If you're using quality materials for crafting, expect to pay even more. The Materia Twins spending all of Ao's first paycheck on materials for their luxurious room in the anime isn't an exaggeration.

* FriendlyFandoms:
** With the Busou Shinki and Megami Device fandoms, naturally, as Shinki fans fully welcome a new sister franchise to pick the slack where Konami let them go.
** With other Humida franchises, like Sky Girls, Strike Witches, and so on, since Humida also designed several of the FA Girls, like Gourai.
** With the greater Gunpla and Plamo kit fandom, because FA Girl kits aren't actually that terrifying to build and the newer ones incorporate a lot of good design elements that improve articulation and/or build quality.
* MemeticMutation: In addition to standard MechaMusume memes and memes inherited from their Busou Shinki predecessors, FA Girls have a number of their own memes:
** Bullying Stylet/Stylet is easy to bully [[labelnote:Explanation]]Originating in /toy/, jokes about how Stylet's portrayl as a {{Buttmonkey}} and how amusing and compelling her emotional responses are line up to make the fandom fond of making fun of her.[[/labelnote]]
** Stop posting here, Stylet [[labelnote:Explanation]]An extension of the above, the joke being that some fans who defend Stylet from her 'bullies' are taken to be Stylet somehow posting on /toy/ to defend herself (which should be impossible unless she can somehow get past the anti-robot Captcha filters).[[/labelnote]]
