< Gun X Sword
Gun X Sword/YMMV
- Alternate Character Interpretation: Kameo was already getting a reputation as a stealth Chessmaster before his antics in episode 17.
- Crowning Music of Awesome: The entire soundtrack can qualify, especially the opening theme. An even more epic example is the track "He reduces to Memories", which first plays when Van finally finds the Claw in episode 13.
- When you see Mexican GaoGaiGar and hear their theme play, you know awesome shit is going down.
- Ensemble Darkhorse: Carmen 99 and Fasalina. It helps that they're also Memetic Sex Goddesses.
- The El Dora team is frequently lamented for not getting enough screen time because of their Badass Spaniard Old Superhero ways and incredibly memorable fights.
- Everybody Remembers the Stripper: Check out this anime's fanart and videos. It's an almost guaranteed bet that H pictures of Fasalina or a clip of her sex scene from Episode 20 will be available.
- Evil Is Sexy: Fasalina, so very much. (See above).
- Jerkass Woobie: Ray, tampered only slightly with his Morality Pet of a brother Joshua.
- Carossa and Woo are insecure to a fault. Carossa has his own Morality Pet to boot.
- Memetic Sex Goddess: Carmen 99 and Fasalina.
- Narm: And Woo was doing so nicely up to that point, too.
- They Copied It, So It Sucks: A label often put on this show: dead wrong, of course.
- More specifically, if you Google old reviews of the series from 2005 on, you can see that there's a lot of YMMV with regard to evaluating the quality of the series. Is it a lackluster and unimaginative rip-off of earlier and better anime like Trigun or Cowboy Bebop? Or does it draw elements from different sources and combine them in a compelling and creative way? On its 2010 re-release, various reviewers gave it ratings ranging from "C+" to "A-" or "Highly Recommended."
