Mix And Match is now a disambig.


BROCCOLI had a problem. The first game in the ''VideoGame/GalaxyAngel'' gameverse was announced as an epic DatingSim [[MixAndMatch meets]] RealTimeStrategy game, to much applause and speculation. But as video games often are, ''Galaxy Angel: Project G.A.'' was delayed... and they still had an anime deal. A lesser franchise would have cut their losses and gone for the AdaptationDecay that was sure to follow; after all, they had little to no information, just the basic designs and personalities of the five beautiful, powerful and quirky Angels.

* CriminalDoppelganger: "Fallen Angel Dark Space Chazuke" opens with Milfeulle having been seemingly replaced by a fake and getting arrested. The rest of the Angel Brigade then break her out of prison, thinking there's been some sort of mistake, but then the real Milfeulle comes back from shopping, revealing that there really was an evil doppelganger. The fake Milfeulle taunts them by hologram, and reveals that there is an entire Fake Angel Brigade, but while the fake Milfeulle looks identical to the real one, the rest have swapped around heights, body types and personalities.

I'm moving Aerith And Bob to the video game page, since he doesn't appear in the TV series. Also deleting All Planets Are Earthlike because upon reading the page I notice that only aversions & etc. are supposed to be listed.


* AerithAndBob: Takuto Mayers has a Japanese first name and a surname that came from a brand of Jamaican rum. The main heroine, Milfeulle Sakuraba, has a first name taken from a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millefeuille type of French pastry]] and a Japanese surname. Everyone else, for the most part, have weird full names. Though, since this page seems to only refer to the gag anime Takuto may not count.

* GenerationXerox: Volcott once went to a reunion with the previous members of the Angel Brigade. Turns out everyone looked like the current members of the brigade in their youth, save for Volcott, [[IWasQuiteALooker who is clearly much younger then.]]

* AbhorrentAdmirer: Forte keeps running into an octopus alien who does nothing but declare his love for her even after she fires a submachine gun to keep him away.



* AllPlanetsAreEarthlike: If the show visits a planet, whatever planet it's identified as, it'll almost certainly look like Earth and can be walked around on without a spacesuit.



* AnthropomorphicPersonification: The villain of one episode turns out to be a manifestation of the survivors' grief and anger after an accident killed countless people.



* BigBallOfViolence: When Milfeulle accidentally insults the other Brigade members and Major Mary at a tense moment, they all whip out blunt instruments and attack her in one of these. Milfeulle actually sidesteps the whole thing, which raises the question of who they're beating up.



* {{Bowdlerize}}: While the content and tone of the show remained the same, when the show moved to Creator/TVTokyo starting with ''Z'', Ranpha and Forte's outfits had to be covered up due to TV Tokyo's notoriously strict censorship guidelines, this change would also carry over to ''Anime/GalaxyAngelRune'' for the same reason.

to:

* BodyHorror:
** One piece of Lost Technology causes several characters' heads to grow a long, skinny neck from the top with a smaller head on it. It manages to [[PlayedForLaughs not be too horrifying]].
** A spider jumping into Forte's mouth somehow causes her to start spitting cobwebs, grow extra limbs, and turn purple, before winding up as [[BishonenLine a largely human-looking spider-themed superheroine]].

* CastFromHitPoints: A Lost Technology has the ability to give anyone whatever they desire when activated, at the cost of a random amount of the user's lifespan.
* CipherScything: The anime tossed out several aspects of the games it's based on, including the male lead.
* ClassReunion: Or rather, a military reunion. An episode had Volcott reunite with the old members of the Angel Brigade, all of them looking older versions of the current members. Sure enough, when they flashback to their days of their youth, they all look ''exactly'' like the current group, but with a younger Volcott alongside them.

Season 2's opening theme appears as part of a string of nightmares Milfeulle has in a Season 3 episode (ItMakesSenseInContext), and Season 4's opening is sung by the girls while they are undercover stewardesses on a plane.

* EdibleThemeNaming: The five girls are named after foods and spices. Every episode has some kind of food worked into the title as well.
* ElephantInTheLivingRoom: There's a planet ruled by a king who has a light fixture pull cord (actually [[spoiler:a piece of Lost Technology]]) sprouting from his head. This is a planet where disrespecting royalty is punishable by death, so everyone pretends it's not there -- except the visiting Milfeulle, who can't stop blabbering about it even though she knows she shouldn't.
* EnsembleCast: While some episodes focus on one Brigade member to the others' expense, nobody gets to dominate the series.



* EveryoneIsRelated: A particularly baffling episode has Forte and Chitose turn out to be sisters and Milfeulle discover that Vanilla, Malibu and Kokomo are her siblings, Volcott is her uncle, Ranpha is her mother and Mint is her father. This probably shouldn't be taken seriously, [[GagSeries insofar as anything can be in this series]].



* FoodAsBribe: In one episode, three new Angel Brigade applicants get Milfeulle, Mint and Vanilla to vouch for them using (respectively) whipped cream, popcorn and carrots.



* FreezeFrameBonus: Letters shown onscreen tend to have nothing to do with the scene. One is supposedly a love note, but is actually an old Times of London article about the stock market. Another is just word salad.
* FrogMen: In one episode, the Angels have to deal with a rebellion of froglike humanoid aliens.
* FunnyOctopus:
** There's a sushi bar run by a giant, {{Jerkass}} octopus. They decide to eat him when they've had enough of his abuse.
** In another episode, the Brigade meets an octopus alien, who is supposedly rich and famous on his home planet. All he does is [[AbhorrentAdmirer declare his infatuation with Forte]]. He reappears several more times and invariably makes passes at her.
** Later, Ranpha claims that the prince of a planet fell in love with her. The only reason she didn't marry him is because he's an "octopod" alien.



* GenderBender: One particular Lost Technology invokes this. It swapped the genders of Forte and Volcott in its featured episode. It also invoked AttractiveBentGender in Forte as Ranpha became infatuated with him later in the episode, to the point where she decides to marry him. [[spoiler: In a desperate effort to stay out of the wedding, Forte starts using the Lost Technology to gender bend everyone in the altar.]]

* HereWeGoAgain: "Shamefully Over-Fried Oysters" ends this way, with Ranpha and Mint demanding that Forte do another challenge to make up for accidentally eating Milfeulle's snacks again. Normad says the exact stock phrase in the dub.



* HypnoPendulum: Used by Normad in "Shamefully Over-Fried Oysters" to turn [[MoreHypnotizableThanHeThinks Forte]] into a GirlyGirl who has no problem flirting with strange men.



* IndirectKiss: Ranpha invents a recorder made of candy that replicates the taste of when you found your crush's recorder in school and snuck an indirect kiss by playing it when no one was around. Apparently almost everyone in the ''Galaxy Angel'' world has done this.



* NegativeContinuity
* OurDoorsAreDifferent: several that are best described as art-major sci-fi.

to:

* NegativeContinuity
MusclesAreMeaningless: Ranpha and Forte have typical slender leading-lady builds but are incredibly strong, able to fight much larger enemies hand-to-hand.
* NegativeContinuity: Although the series has a number of call backs to previous episodes, there's no story arc and the frequent {{Snapback}}s mean that trying to arrange the show into a timeline would be an exercise in futility.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: In "Boiled Tiger of Trauma," the Brigade and Volcott are being chased by guerrillas, who start a forest fire to flush them out. They evade the guerrillas by running ''into'' the fire... and in the next shot they've made it through, singed but alive and well.
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Normad develops this attitude toward Forte during the episode when they're scheduled to fight in a boxing match.
* OurDoorsAreDifferent: several Several that are best described as art-major sci-fi.



* PlantAliens: One notable instance has the Angel Base taken over by a sentient mass of Kelp. It demands that the girls apologize for earlier Kelp-related insults and wait on it hand and foot.

to:

* PhilosophersStone: There's a gem stored in Angel Base that's a philosopher's stone in all but name (bright red, turns lead into gold, grants eternal youth), and an episode centers around preventing it from falling into the hands of rebel forces. [[spoiler:None of this may actually be true, since the episode has a pretty MindScrew-y AllJustADream ending]].

In one episode, all the characters were hanging off a cliff edge, developed various ways to fly, then suddenly lost their methods of flight for no explained reason and were hanging off the cliff again. [[MetaGuy Normad]] was [[LampshadeHanging terribly confused]].

* StockNessMonster: In the first ''AA'' special, the lake that contestants fly over for the Shine! You Chicken Bastard contest is haunted by a cartoonish-looking serpent called the "Loch Bro Monster," which knocks contestants out of the air.



* SurroundedByIdiots: Normad seems to have this attitude generally toward the Brigade (Vanilla excepted). He also drops the line specifically after getting kidnapped by the cat-masked gangsters when they're enacting a convoluted plan to sabotage Milfeulle's entry in a baking contest.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Parodied in the Franchise/SuperSentai episode, where Volcott dies and is replaced by his younger brother, a clone, a BodyDouble, and an IdenticalStranger, who all die off-camera. They're up to the younger brother's BackupTwin before it turns out the colonel [[UnexplainedRecovery never actually died in the first place]].
* TakenForGranite:
** Happens to anyone who challenges an infuriated Volcott to a fight and loses. They turn into memorial statues of themselves, which Malibu calls the "Loser Stone."
** Subverted in "Fish Jerky Over a Thousand Nights," as instead of actually turning to stone, Vanilla is just encased in a thin layer of stone, and breaks free at the end [[{{Determinator}} to resume chasing the now-elderly Kokomo]].



* WeightWoe: Indulging in Milfeulle's sweets results in one for the cast. While they [[HollywoodPudgy don't look any different]], their combined weight puts them over the limit for the base's escape capsule during an emergency simulation, prompting Forte to create a torturous weight-loss program of trekking through a desert in sauna suits until they're emaciated. [[spoiler:Afterward, they can use the capsule, but to make the simulation "realistic," it provides life support by force-feeding them, causing them to gain ''huge'' amounts of weight]].

In place of honest AdaptationDecay, they outright parodied the concept, taking out all the characters but the Angels and fitting in new ones, exaggerating the Angels' personalities for comedic effect, and using the premise as an excuse to send them on strange 12-minute excursions.

The main heroine, Millefeuille Milfeulle Sakuraba, has a first name taken from a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millefeuille type of French pastry]] and a Japanese surname. Everyone else, for the most part, have weird full names. Though, since this page seems to only refer to the gag anime Takuto may not count.

The series was initially licensed in the U.S. by Creator/BandaiEntertainment, but the series eventually went out of print and then Bandai closed. Luckily, Creator/NozomiEntertainment rescued the series and released it on Blu-ray in 2017 (and uploaded the first series to their official [=YouTube=] channel later that year). They also have plans to re-release ''Galaxy Angel Z'' in 2018.

fixed a wick for a split trope, and I'm moving it out of YMMV, since Annoying Video Game Helper is YMMV but Unwanted Assistance is not. ...I think I put it in the right place, judging from the tone of the Anime vs the tone of the game...!
