%%* IdiotPlot: Chaotic Century suffers from a SERIOUS case, to the point where the plot moves forward not because of the skill or resourcefulness of the protagonists, but because of the stupidity of the villains.


* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The CGI blends in pretty well with the rest of the show, it's stylized enough without reaching UncannyValley levels and they look like they are in the actual background with the right amount of color and shading. This extends to ''[[Anime/ZoidsNewCentury New Century]]'' as well.

* FanPreferredCouple: Let's see... [[ImpliedLoveInterest VanxFiona]], [[CargoShip VanxZeke]], VanxRaven, SchubaltzxO'Connell, [[HoYay VanxIrvine]], [[TheLancer Irvine]][[CoolBigSis xMoonbay]]... Mind you, these are just the most common!

* BadassDecay: Reese gets hit with this pretty hard towards the end of the series. For most of her appearances, she's a competent warrior and a constant threat with her piloting skills and ManipulativeBitch schemes. However, once Hiltz disposes of her and she starts traveling with Raven, she's demoted to a sideline position where she can't do anything for the final episodes other than cry and scream Raven's name.


* TooDumbToLive: Van's Shield Liger's E-shield is almost never used.
* ToyShip: Van and Fiona in Chaotic Century.
* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Raven. We're meant to feel sorry for him because of DarkAndTroubledPast: his parents were killed by a rogue organoid when he was a child, and he was subsequently kidnapped and turned into an emotionless soldier by Prozen. The problem is, by the time Raven's backstory is revealed, he's already been established as an egomaniacal bloodthirsty killer and terrorist. He abuses and belittles Shadow, wants to commit genocide against all Zoids, and will even murder his own allies, which makes it all but impossible to feel sorry for him.

Added DiffLines:

* FanNickname: "Guardian Force" for the Post-TimeSkip episodes. These episodes were still officially titled "Chaotic Century".

** Hiltz is very much similar to [[Franchise/{{Naruto}} fellow Akatsuki member]] Sasori, an EvilRedhead who has a scorpion-like machine (or doll in Sasori's case) as a weapon. They even share [[Creator/{{TakahiroSakurai}} the same Japanese voice actor]]!

** The true Death Saurer itself. Once it fuses with the core of the Death Stinger and Hiltz has control of it, it's nigh-unstoppable. The combined forces of the Empire and the Republic do no damage to it whatsoever. It even gains the ability to split its Charged Particle Beam, enabling it to simultaneously hit multiples across the entire planet with ease.

** When Fiona [[spoiler: vanishes from Van's arms after taking a nasty hit that looked like it mortally wounded her, you can't help but hear the strain in Van's voice as he cries out for her, believing that she had just died. If not for the fact that Zeke knew were she went, it's likely Van would've gone on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge to finally put an end to Hiltz]]
