* The Germanian's newest wonderweapon, analogous to the RealLife V2 rocket, is pretty much this. While the real V2 rocket was a pretty destructive weapon already, this one, powered by [[{{Unobtainium}} Hexenium]], is far more destructive, with an explosive payload equivalent to an atomic bomb. Their first target turns out to be none other than the Eylstadt capital of Landsbruck, as part of their promise to Sophie to exact revenge on the country. Not only that, but the Germanian representatives in Westria also threaten the Allied countries' representatives with the same treatment on their own cities if they continue to resist.

Had it not been for Fine's and Izetta's efforts, the Allied countries, including possibly the United States of Atlanta, would have indeed surrendered under threat of extermination.

* In this episode, the SS make an appearance. Much like our world's SS, they are the PraetorianGuard for the Germanian Empire's leadership, in this case serving as the Kaiser's personal bodyguard and enforcers. And like the real organization, they're shown to be absolutely ruthless both in and out of combat, promising to torture Fin'e and the surviving Eylstadt soldiers even after they surrender. While they ultimately get wiped out thanks to Izetta's BigDamnHeroes moment, it doesn't remove their status as [[KnightOfCerebus Knights of Cerebus]].

* This episode introduces Sophie, [[spoiler:a clone of the legendary White Witch]]. From the start, we can already tell she's, at best, unnerving. As revealed in Episode 8, [[spoiler:the Prince from the legend had already taken a wife, who betrayed the White Witch to the Inquisition after the Prince's death]], meaning that Sophie wants revenge on Eylstadt. After trying and failing to convince Izetta to stop fighting, Sophie proceeds to deliver an utter Main/{{Curb-Stomp Battle}}, ultimately [[spoiler:using the Magic Stone to drain all of the magical energy in the area]] before painfully chaining Izetta up.

** This is followed by the camera looking up to reveal a bunch of magically-enhanced bombs flying overhead on the way to bomb Landsbruck. Without Izetta, there is literally ''nothing'' preventing the Germanians from overrunning Landsbruck and defeating Eylstadt.

* The villagers in Izetta's flashback tried to lynch her not because they knew she was a witch but because they accused her of burning down a shed. They weren't even trying to find out if she actually did it or if it was an accident. They were ready and willing to kill a child.
** The confrontation causes Izetta's power to nearly go out of control as shown in the picture above.
