Go To

Episode 1

  • True to the episode's title, Geo experiences the roughest entrance into Teora possible. The poor guy slams into a couple mountains before becoming entangled in vines and left dangling before a startled Ami, who screams in his face.
  • During the montage where Ami shows Geo the wonders of her world, Geo accidentally looks up Ami's dress while the two are climbing up a rock face. He abruptly shoves her up to the top to stop himself from staring.
  • As Geo urgently dashes through the night to find a kidnapped Ami, he suddenly stops moving. The camera cuts away to show he just charged right off a cliff and is standing in midair; when he notices, he plummets.

Episode 2

  • Gwain visits Ami's room and leans against a closet during the ensuing conversation; she knows Ami brought an uninvited guest and seems to be drawing attention to Geo's hiding spot. That's exactly what she's doing... But Geo's actual hiding spot is just out of frame. After some buildup, the camera abruptly pans right to show Geo merely wearing a lampshade, which Gwain promptly knocks off.
  • What ultimately convinces Gwain to spare Geo—and what is one of the few things to perturb her—is Ami's Death Glare.
  • As Gwain explains just what the Golem Ring can do (it's a tool designed to help the user alter their weight), Geo thoughtlessly clenches his fist and activates it, sending himself plummeting through the floor.

Episode 3

  • When Luna throws off her disguise, Agni prepares his video camera, fully expecting her to be naked underneath. Agni’s disappointed and audibly baffled to find Luna now wearing her comparatively modest dress instead.
  • Luna's spherical robots are unleashed after a dodgeball confrontation between Geo and Agni's bullies. It's as if they were saved specifically for her to make a crappy "Play ball" pun. Elsewhere, Electra finds one of the robots in the ladies' restroom, reading a newspaper.
  • Deva attempts to distract Luna by throwing a snowball in her face. Ami throws a carrot onto the snowball for good measure.
  • Mizu spends his time in class solving the overcomplicated formula that Luna made. He struggles a bit at first, though much later, it's shown that he solved it as he goes outside to seek out the now absent substitute. He arrived at an unfortunate time, as Marlow, who was trying to point out Geo to the Principal, fingers Mizu instead. This happens again in the next episode.

Episode 4

  • Marlow's bestiary depicts several fictional vampires, such as the aesthetically clashing Count von Count and Count Burns.
  • Geo's mild annoyance at his change in clothing. Deva, meanwhile, thinks he looks pleased.
  • Ami, having noticed Marlow stalking the group, shoots her down from a tree with an arrow. After Marlow falls down, nothing happens, and she attempts to walk away nonchalantly. Then the arrow's status effect kicks in when she goes offscreen, and she's out cold.
  • When Marlow questions her own conclusion of Geo being a vampire, Gwain performs some serious mental gymnastics to cover up the boy's true species. From that point forward, everyone else believes that Geo is a vampire.

Episode 5

  • Geo finally sticks up for himself against Gwain's bigotry by licking her across the face. She embeds him into a doghouse he was sitting on during the scene and spends the rest of the morning washing her face in a nearby fountain.
  • A drunken Ami attempts to shoot Luna with an arrow. She misses her shot, which hits Deva instead after deflecting off of the robot squid's tentacles.
  • Upon entering the party grounds, Geo—who is strictly a swordsman by this point in the story—is warned by Electra... to not use any guns on the premises. He and Ami exchange a knowing glance. Of course, Electra's mistake becomes prescient thanks to the events of the next episode, where Geo receives an upgrade to configure the EXE Blade into a firearm.

Episode 6

  • Luna's bar fight is rife with comedy. The humor is likely why the scene was used as Episode 6's preview:
    • One bandit makes the horrible mistake of trying to grope Luna's ass, instigating the entire confrontation.
    • Another bandit briefly aims a banana at her after she defends herself. He quickly exchanges it for a proper gun like the others.
    • To distract the gang, Luna projects an image of a displeased Gwain wearing a Playboy bunny outfit. It makes one wonder how Luna even got such a picture in the first place.
    • She uses a pool cue to whack some billiard balls at the bandits; two of the balls embed into one's mask and look like googly eyes.
    • Luna confronts the head bandit. She kicks a floorboard into his nuts to make him lose his focus, then tosses a nearby jukebox at him to finish him off.
    • As if nothing had ever happened, Luna pays the terrified bartender for her drink before exiting.
    • As she leaves, the bandits try to one-up her victory by shooting up her motorcycle. Luna blasts the bandits' cycles in one fell swoop, leaving the head bandit chiding himself.
  • Geo's "battle" against the King Kaditopez. The boy's clearly not interested in fighting, standing stock still and taking all the king's attacks as if they were nothing. Kaditopez eventually tires out, readily relinquishing his treasure hoard. Then comes his bewilderment when he realizes what Geo was really after...
    Kaditopez: "HE JUST WANTED THE DAMN BOOK!"
  • It turns out that those bandits helped Luna hijack the train later on. The head bandit is, again, taken out by a Groin Attack, this time by Geo stepping on a metal bar.
  • Speaking of the train hijacking, when Luna finds the Engine Driver, he's...well, shocked. Very much so, to the point where he can't register that she's telling him to keep quiet. Eventually, she just gives up and throws him out, leaving him stranded on a sign. Did we mention his appearance is based off Sr. Pelo, and that he's 'voiced' by him?

Episode 7

  • At one point before this episode, Lanney walked in on Ami and Geo being... intimate. The kicker is when Geo accidentally sits up into Ami's chest; his health-per-second recovery jumps from +1 to +99.
    • And so does Ami's.
  • After watching Savien screw around with Geo and Agni with his magic, Ami showcases her own magic trick by making a cookie in her hand disappear, terrifying them to the point of them escaping in order of: Savien wrapping himself in his cape and flying up not unlike Meta Knight, Agni flying off in flames, and Geo simply jumping out of a window, with Ami revealing that she simply hid the cookie in her sleeve before eating it.
  • The unflappable Joe Tub pops up to commentate on the action when things start to go wrong. Each time he addresses Gwain about the ensuing chaos, she fumbles trying to answer.
  • Tahjin's apprehension for the rock element becomes funnier when one realizes what his confrontation with Lanney boils down to.

Episode 8

  • At the beginning of the episode, we see Queen Gwain sitting on her throne... Fast asleep, a bit of drool dribbling down her chin. She wakes up when Ami gives her a goodbye kiss... For all of three seconds, before going right back to sleep.
  • The flashback to Deva's birthday party. Lanney, holding a mug of beer and clearly drunk, complains about how the others didn't figure out what her element was, and then proceeds to chug her beer before passing out and falling face-first onto the table.
    Lanney: What element you thought it was? Shit element!?
  • The girls shop for swimwear, with each suit having a level that's clearly referencing bust size. In order, Deva's Water Swimsuit is level ten, Marlow's Leaf Swimsuit is level eighteen, and Ami's Orca Swimsuit is level twenty. The level for Lanney's Maid Swimsuit, however, is censored.
  • When they're just starting to explore Bride Island, Ami finds herself conflicted over wanting to hold Geo's hand. Cue a Nun!Ami and a Pirate!Ami appearing as her shoulder angel and devil, respectively. Pirate!Ami encourages her to go ahead and hold Geo's hand. Nun!Ami's response?
    Nun!Ami: No... Grab that booty.
