AKB0048/Awesome

• The entire first half of episode one, when the idols put on their performance while being attacked by military tanks and riot forces. Especially if the viewer was expecting a normal slice-of-life show, and then got an amazing futuristic action sequence instead.
• Chieri's Heroic Sacrifice in order to save Nagisa in episode three.
• The ota brigade who enter in episode 6, deploying a handheld glowstick missile barrage and mecha decorated with AKB0048 members to assist Team 00 in fighting off DES.
