 * Big Bad Ensemble: Birugo and Misuterī serve as the main villains in season 1.
 * Character Development:
 * Chiwak learns that being a Galactic Patrol officer is not an easy job.
 * Naikō-tekina learns to focus her introverted oersonality into becoming a team asset.
 * Continuity Nod:
 * In episode 1, Furui compares Chiwuk's excitment with Saiyan stuborness.
 * Jaco's accomplishments in the film are mentioned in his appearance.
 * Evil Is Hammy: Birugo, as expected from a villain voiced by Mark Hamill.
 * Heartwarming Moments: Ekisupāto is a Nice Guy and a very friendly individual who just happens to be a nerd. They are Heartwarming incarnated.
 * Laser-Guided Karma: The series finale has Birugo killed by one of his own weapons.
 * Large Hqm: Actress Claire is one, courtesy of Tabitha St. Germain.
 * Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Episode director Elizabeth Hestridge makes a cameo in her episode... as the director of a movie Claire is starring in.
 * Like Brother, Like Sibling: Chiwuk and Ekisuoāto have a very sibling-esque relationship, with friendly banters and a willingness to help each other just fir the sake of it.
 * Mythology Gag:
 * One of the objects Birugo is selling is a planet-killing bomb, whoch was part if the Galactic Patrol's arsenal in the manga.
 * Beerus' name is invoked in a Devil-esque way.
 * Shimorekka's first scene strongly resembles when Gohan and Vidrl met Hoi in Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon.
 * One of Shimorekka's kills is lifted straight from the manga.
 * Nightmare Fuel:
 * Shimorekka is one nasty psychotic killer. And a brutal one at that.
 * We get to see the mayhem and death Gatchan's species can cause if exploited by the wrong people, and is not pretty.
 * Birugo's death in the series finale: Being burned alive from the inside and exploding. And it looks as painful as it sounds.
 * Production Posee: Malcolm Spellman, Kari Sougland, Derek Kolstad, and Elijah Richardson reunite after working together on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
 * Salvaged Story: An industry-wide example. A common criticosm of cop shows is how they are potrayed in a light too positive. In this show, a corrrupt cop is the Big Bad.
 * "Scooby-Doo" Hoax: A criminal uses Birugo's technology to pretemd a house is haunted to hodehis illegal activities.
 * Shout-Out: The effect of one of Birugo's weapons on living beongs resembkes the Extremis in Iron Man 3.
 * Tearjerker: The season 2 finale has Chiwuk, once a person very excited to join the Galactic Patrol, grow disillusioned with its corruption and resign.
 * Wham Line:
 * When interrogated of why Birugo would hire him, Shimorekka reveals he didn't, meaning somebody else is trying to keep his operations under wraps.
 * "Then you should make less noice". Not the line, but who says it, this being Misuterī while interrupting a meeting between Biguro and his men, re eqking herself as the top client and who's also trying to hide his operations.
 * Wham Shot:
 * As the group tries to figure out Biguro's location, we cut to a scene of him leaving his base for the outside world, which is not the same enviroment as the rest of the series so far, revealing his operations are wider than ever.
 * As the team searches for the new weapon Biguro is trying to sell, they find Gatchan eggs.
 * Your Princess Is In Another Castle: It is revealed during season 1 that Birugo's operations are on a planet other than Nutts.
 * Unexpected Character: The Gatchan species was the last thing anybody expected to see in this show, seeing how it clashes with the Denser and Wackier Dr. Slump films.
