Birdy the Mighty/YMMV

• Better on DVD: Episode 7 of Season 2's quality is increased immensely compared to the broadcast version.
• Evil Is Sexy: Revi isn't by any means ugly and does tend to wear does pretty sexy outfits.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: In the original manga, after getting caught by Gomez trashing some robots, with the help of Tsuotmu, Birdy rattles off a Sailor Moon-esque speech (though the original manga does predate Sailor Moon). In the OVA, Birdy was voiced by Sailor Moon's seiyuu herself.
• Moral Event Horizon: Nataru crossed this after killing one of the escaped aliens after she decided to leave the rest of the survivors in protest over their actions.
  • To be fair, she left less in protest and more out of fear that Nataru would find her if she stayed with the group.
• Nightmare Fuel: Tsutomu's death and some of the villains Birdy fights. Birdy's boss, who's a giant insectoid creature, might also count, not to mention her mentor who's a giant lizard with a face like a skull. There's also Violin's death and the events around it.
• Squick
  • Tsutomu's death. Especially in Decode, where he gets blown in half. In the OVA, he's electrocuted.
    • He's also electrocuted in the original manga. In the remake, he gets a hole blown into his torso.
  • Geega's transformation in the OVA.
  • In both series, Bacillus. He bonds himself to several dogs at once in the OVA. In Decode, his hosts visibly fall apart while fighting Birdy. His death in both the OVA (getting set on fire) and Decode (getting blown up) could also count.
  • In the OVA, the aforementioned mad scientist's experiments.
  • The escape of several aliens in the opening to the second season of Decode involves them killing the guards in goresome fashion. The subsequent deaths of several of said aliens in also horrific.
  • Violin's death in both series. While she suffered a severe head blow in the OVA, in Decode, her head gets crushed in.
• Tear Jerker: The death of Violin in Decode and Birdy's reaction to it.
• Too Good to Last: The general opinion of fans of the OVA and Decode is that they ended too soon.
