* ''"The Man Who Came Down to Earth"'': Rena's strained relationship with her father, Omi. The former promised to her father a lipstick as a gift to her 9th birthday, but duty calls on that day where he rescued survivors from his ship 13 years ago and fired the Valkyrie Cannon to neutralize the ship trying to collide on his space station. When Rena gets kidnapped by Alien Reguran, Omi finally realizes how he has been missing in her daughter's life and willingly takes the risk of rescuing her with help from GUTS. Eventually, both father and daughter reconcile at the end of the episode.
** On that same episode, we find out Reguran's family board were inside of the ship destroyed by the TPC's defense cannon. The fact Omi gave the call to open fire, and Reguran in response, kidnapping Rena as revenge and was about to make him pay with his daughter's life doesn't help matters either.
