* MagnificentBastard: [[Characters/BerserkGriffithFemto Griffith]], charismatic leader of the Band of the Hawks, manages to press [[Characters/BerserkGuts Guts]] into the Band before taking the lead in Midland's Hundred-Year War. Using his command of tactics and the proper battle music to set them to, Griffith leads them to victory after victory before taking the impenetrable Doldrey fortress. Luring out its corrupt Governor who lusts after Griffith's place in his Escaflowne cosplay group, Griffith then [[FakingTheDead fakes his death]] to catch the Queen of Midland in a plot and burns her and her co-conspirators alive. When the time comes to sacrifice the Hawks to the Godhand, Griffith can only refuse and [[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu tells the demon lords to leave him and his friends]] alone before recovering and setting off to become king.

** While the foxhunt was a shout out to ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', ("Here Kyubi, Kyubi, Kyubi!"), if one was to apply {{Mondegreen}} to it, it becomes an entry to the many "[[MemeticMutation Everybody Hates]] [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Kyubey]]" Moments.

* FridgeBrilliance: One episode has Griffith comparing his troops to pawns in a conversation to Charlotte, with a mention that pawns can be sacrificed to bring back more important pieces. [[spoiler:This actually serves as an early indicator for the fact that the infamous sacrifice ''won't'' be carried out here; since the king (Griffith) can't be captured, it also can't be brought back by sacrificing pawns.]]

** In episode 7 [[spoiler: "Bitch slap!/Oh snap!/Punk motherfucker ain't worth a cap!]] It's hilarious given the context.
** Spoofed in episode 15, where the Governor insists on blaring "[[Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne Dance of the Curse]]" 'round the clock at maximum volume. Why? Because Music/YokoKanno makes ''everything'' more awesome.



--> '''Mike''': How are you gonna put a price on making orphans out of my kids, man!?
--> '''Guts''': (RecordScratch) Hm, that's a good point. Three extra silver stags for making orphans out of his kids?
--> '''Mercenary Captain''': Oh god, yes!
** Also from the movie: "Say 'No, Uncle Griffith, don't touch me there!'"

** In Episode 20, Godo suggests that Guts should train until he's a better swordsman than anybody could ever realistically be. "Unless the world should suddenly be overrun by horrible demons, of course. [[TemptingFate But what are the chances of that happening?]]" This was obviously a joke about how Guts would fight demons extensively during and after the Eclipse, but after [[TheMagicComesBack the magic came back and astral creatures made a sudden resurgence in the world]] in the manga proper, it became a lot more stunningly accurate.

** When the series was first released, Zack was just an easily missed ([[SmallRoleBigImpact though still vitally important]]) bit player in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', hence why everyone mistakes Guts for a Cloud cosplayer (and Phil dismisses the character as a "black-haired Cloud"). [[VideoGame/CrisisCore Then Zack got his own game]].
