* AssholeVictim: Most Beastmen attack innocent civilians but Mole Beastman's victim was the least sympathetic. In addition to killing a bird in front of Amazon, he's on the run from the cops for four murders and even after Amazon saves him, he deliberately unbalances Amazon to make sure Mole gets him.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight - Amazon running around modern Tokyo in a loincloth doesn't attract nearly as much attention as you'd think.
* WalkingShirtlessScene - Amazon.
* WildChild: Take a [[IncrediblyLamePun wild]] guess.
