''Dancouga Nova'' is a SuperRobot show that started airing on February 15, 2007. Creator/MasamiObari designed and directed the series. This is the [[InNameOnly supposed sequel]] to ''Super Beast Machine God Anime/{{Dancougar}}'', though it is more a SpiritualSuccessor to ''Anime/{{Gravion}}''.

The story takes place in 2014, when wars spring up all over the world and Japan has been devastated by a massive earthquake. Where ever the fighting turns to favor one of the sides, a mysterious force appears to even the odds, but never finishes off the side that once was winning. It leaves once the balance of power is restored. This is ''Dancouga Nova''.

They decide it's best to use their {{teleportation}} device, and end up back at base [[AccidentalPervert in the same room as Johnny and Sakuya]]. Cue NakedFreakOut followed by PervertRevengeMode. But the scene wasn't ''just'' for {{fanservice}}, as Isabelle ends up finding the girl's clothes which leads her to find the Dragon's Hive.
* NeuroVault: Instruction of how to pilot the Dancouga were downloaded into the four pilot's brains upon their arrival in The Dragon's Hive.
* NGOSuperpower: The Dragon's Hive is an absurdly powerful secret organization that funds the development of Dancougar Nova (The world's greatest weapon), has enough money to pay it's staff more than Aoi makes as both a model and a racer and has enough resources to completely recreate the pilot's rooms in their island down to the most benign detail.
* NonActionGuy: Johnny is deadly piloting his mech, but physically he has no fighting skills whatsoever.
* NoTimeToExplain: Frequently happens to the Team D, they're usually dispatched on a mission before Tanaka can fully answer all their questions.



* TheRival: R-Daigun to Dancouga Nova, a red Beast Machine, which is piloted by [[spoiler: Idol Singer Eida (see above entry)]]

to:

* OutOfClothesExperience: Aoi gets a couple near the end of the story while piloting Dancouga, usually with BarbieDollAnatomy.
* PersonalityBloodTypes: The Da team are selected based on the Japanese blood type personality theory - each team consists of an A (Aoi), a B (Kurara), an O (Johnny), and an AB (Sakuya).
* ReallyGetsAround: Seimi has had a lot of lovers, both men and women, but has been focused on her job ever since she was hired. When she gets stressed, Riruri's psychological analysis for her is basically YouNeedToGetLaid.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Commander Tanako tries to pass off as one, he acts friendly and answers team D's questions to the best of his ability, but has a few AmbiguouslyEvil moments at the start of the story.
* RecoilBoost: A particularly crazy example in episode 5, in which Kurara throws a Grenada on the floor and jumps into the air, with the grenades ExplosionPropulsion sending her high into the air.
* RecruitTeenagersWithAttitude: The members are picked to be the Dancouga Nova pilots are all fairly young adults, with their fair share of emotional issues.
* RescueRomance: Isabelle falls for Sakuya after he rescues her.
* TheRival: R-Daigun to is a super-robot that rivals Dancouga Nova, Nova in power, a red Beast Machine, which is Machine designed by a company that rivals Fog Sweeper. It's even piloted by a CharClone, who turns out to be [[spoiler: Idol Singer Eida (see above entry)]]Eida, who would later have a HeelFaceTurn and become the team's SixthRanger.]]
* RocketPunch: Sakuya has one called "Boost Nova Knuckle".



* SheCleansUpNicely: Aoi usually wears sporty clothes around the base, so the boys forget she's a model until they see her in a fancy dress for Fog Sweeper's party.
* SleepsInTheNude: Aoi is shown to sleep in "her original" in episode 2 when she wakes up in a CatapultNightmare, with a ModestyBedsheet covering all important bits. Riruri calls in her VideoPhone moments later, and finds it odd Aoi disabled the video feed.
-->'''Aoi:''' I sleep in a way I don't like others to see. ''Especially'' men.\\
'''Riruri:''' Like wearing Chanel No. 5 or 6?\\
'''Aoi:''' [[GratuitousFrench Non]]. It's an original.

to:

** Riruri's Lulli Luli? [[CatchPhrase Baka bakka?]] Sounds like [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Ruri Hoshino]].Hoshino]].
** Riruri asking if Aoi wears Chanel No. 5 after she reveals she SleepsInTheNude is one to Creator/MarilynMonroe who famously revealed she wore only Chanel No. 5 to bed on "The Radio" in a GettingCrapPastTheRadar moment.



** Aoi won't listen to bullshit about how HumansAreBastards.
** Earlier still, Kurara rejects the {{Eagleland}} representative's belief that MightMakesRight.

to:

** Episode 4 has Kurara rejecting the {{Eagleland}} representative's belief that MightMakesRight.
** Aoi won't listen to bullshit about how HumansAreBastards. \n** Earlier still, Kurara rejects [[spoiler: During the {{Eagleland}} representative's belief that MightMakesRight. FinalBattle, the BigBad Moon Will seemingly has Aoi at his mercy, and is explaining that, having acknowledged humans as a dangerous species, he has decided to wipe them out for the good of all and for maintaining the balance of the universe. Despite having taken grievous injuries earlier in the episode, Aoi stands up again and boldly challenges the evil computer. "So what? You think we're gonna keel over and die just because you said so?". And then she literally punches out the godlike computer, killing him on the spot.



* SuperCop: Kurara. 15 years old, cleaned up the corrupt narcotics division of the police department single-handedly. Her ImprobableAimingSkills probably helped a lot.
* TakeThat: America had invaded the Middle East using a war on terrorism as a cover and caused terrorism to spread throughout the world.

to:

* StockFootage: The Dancouga Nova combination sequence happens at least OncePerEpisode.
* ShroudedInMyth: The Dancougar Nova is this InUniverse for most of the population, with no one knowing why it appears, only that it intervenes in war zones around the world in order to aid the losing side.
* SuperCop: Kurara. [[ImprobableAge When she was 15 years old, old]], she cleaned up the corrupt narcotics division of the police department single-handedly. Her ImprobableAimingSkills probably helped a lot.
* SwordPointing: A given, since this is a Creator/MasamiObari work, this is a frequent pose the Dancouga Nova assumes. It's even the EyeCatch for commercial breaks.
* TakeThat: America had invaded the Middle East using a war on terrorism as a cover and caused terrorism to spread throughout the world.
* TechnicalPacifist: The Dancouga Nova is known for not harming the humans inside the mechs it destroys.
* {{Teleportation}}: The pilots are all given a teleportation device that will take transport then to Ryuga Island.



* TrashOfTheTitans: Kurara's room is ''extremely'' messy and she's very embarrassed when the Dragon's Give replicates it, including its messiness. Aoi snarks it reminds her more of a cellar than a room.
* ThrillSeeker: Aoi is one, and it's the part of the reason she's a Formula 1 racer and later takes on the job of piloting the Dancouga Nova.
* TooHotForTV: The TV broadcast for the NakedPeopleTrappedOutside scene had both girls wearing {{Modesty Towel}}s. The DVD version had them both nude, but still employing GodivaHair or HandOrObjectUnderwear.

* UndressingTheUnconscious: {{Downplayed}}, when the four main characters are abducted to the Dragon's Hive they have many of their personal items taken away, but are still dressed in the same clothes they had before they were snatched.
* WakeUpFighting: Kurara unconsciously reach for her gun (that was taken from her) when Aoi wakes her after they're both teleported away to the Dragon's Hive.
* WildCard: The Dancouga Nova is seen as this as it will attack a military force one day and assist it the next, depending on that force’s relative strength in any given battle.
* TheWoobie: Aoi is quite a Woobie under her BadassDriver FieryRedhead exterior. Heavily implied to be [[spoiler:a test tube baby with no parents]], she has believed herself to be alone and unwanted for all of her life. Her fellow Dancouga Nova pilots (Johnny, Sakuya and Kurara) were the first true friends she ever had, after getting past their differences. [[spoiler:And just when she has finally found a place where she can feel accepted, Moon Will totals the Dragon's Hive, apparently killing everyone. Luckily, it later turns out to be a DisneyDeath, and she gets an HappyEnding after literally [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu punching out Cthulhu]]]].

Seimi is the buxom head mechanic of Dancouga Nova.
