Episode 1

  • Ai Tanabe's introduction. She enthusiastically introduces herself to the employees of who she thinks is Debris Section. She doesn't realize that where she is standing is not Debris Section, but Control Section. Oops.
Episode 3
  • Everything about the Will Season and the insurance companies. They formed a really long line outside of the reception, even to go as far as to don spacesuit and pester Technora employees while they're working...
  • Tanabe fending off the insurance seller.
    Tanabe:"That's it... Love is the answer all along..."
    Hachimaki:"Y'know, in a sense, you're amazing."
Episode 5
  • Hachimaki saw a man harassing a woman on space cruise, so he go straight for his face and then choked him out cold. It was a movie shoot. Hachimaki is later forced into standing-in when Tanabe and Fee came looking for him... Talk about karma.
Episode 6
  • The entirely of this episode are spent making fun of Japanophiles.
Episode 7
  • The lunar apple the size of a watermelon, due to Moon's exposure to elements.
  • In the manga version of Hachimaki's hospital stay (Volume 1, Chapter 2), there's a little panel where Fee draws a face with sticking tongue on his leg cast as if mocking its wearer.
Episode 8
  • Turns out that underneath Edel's unassuming coat is a skimpy Gothic outfit.
  • Another railing snapping off the Toy Box again...
  • Fee ordering the Chief in Toy Box to do nothing.
    Chief: (cheerfully) "I copy!"
Episode 9
  • Gigalt's farewell party. Everyone ends up getting drunk to sleep except freaking Tanabe, who looks no worse for wear.
Episode 11Episode 12
  • Both the plots of episode 12 get quite funny, but Fee's quest for a smoke is one of the funniest things in the series. Even more notable since they managed to make a episode about a series of eco-terrorist bombings a CMOF.
    • After grabbing a buggy and making her way to another city on the Moon, Fee ran into a SDF bomber (who's said to target smoking rooms in particular) and shake his hand thinking he's another believer of a good smoke...
    • Fee tries to light up a smoke immediately after the ensuing explosion, only to get thwarted by the automatic sprinkler...
    • Fee saved Seven station's hide by ramming Toy Box into rogue satellite on collision path, and get both burned up in atmosphere, earning a commendation from OPA, just to save the only smoking area in space. Fee thinks its Worth It. The Debris Section... not so much.
  • Lucie suggested that Tanabe has a thing for Hachimaki and demands him to get hooked up. His reaction must be seen to be believed.
Episode 13
  • When Kyutaro's rocket crash-landed in Hoshino house, Hachimaki's mother didn't bother to warn the headband man himself. Tough love.
Episode 14
  • Compare Hachimaki from the first episode to rare awkward expression he have now. It can get amusing.
  • Hachimaki bitching about how he wouldn't date Technora women anyway in the face of office romance ban, with Tanabe still standing clear in his view.
  • The next episode preview. Hachimaki and Tanabe finally going out together, but almost a half of it can be summed up with:
Episode 21Episode 22
  • The Debris Section on the Moon.
    Chief:"I guess Debris Section are Debris Section where ever you go."
