*DesignatedHero: Big Falcon and the Voltes Team. They start the whole conflict by shooting at Team Voltron and the Galactic Alliance after accusing them of being "space invaders" with no evidence. They also never give them a chance to explain themselves and clear their names. Though later it was revealed that Team Voltron are indeed villainous, Big Falcon had no way of knowing that.

* UnintentionallySympathetic: Even if you prefer ''Voltes V'', it's hard not to feel sad for Voltron, who were falsely accused of being mass murderers and invaders, shot at relentlessly and never given a chance to clear their name. The author probably realized this, which is why in the later chapters of the fic Keith and Hunk begin screaming slurs at Asians all of a sudden.

* MoralEventHorizon: Jeff crosses it when he goes on a batshit rant about Asians.
--> Before any of the Voltron Armored Squadron could react to Jeff's words, Jeff activated his com-link and screamed hard at Shaider and the Vavilos. "I don't give a damn about those Japs who died fighting against the Voltron Lion Force...they deserve to die...those ugly, filthy yellow bellied Japs... What's important, are those men who died serving the Galaxy Alliance, Planet Arus and Planet Pollux, they're the true heroes not you, not your Voltes Gooks. None of you yellow faced monkeys could trample the cause of the Galaxy Alliance!"
-->In his cockpit, Shaider was shocked by the barefaced insults he received from the Voltron leader. He now realized that Voltron and the Galaxy Alliance only meant to wage war and possibly destroy Planet Earth. "You blithering bastard, you have no rights to insult those who died for the cause of justice and freedom...
--> In his cockpit, Jeff snarled back at the unseen speaker; "Damn your cause, I challenge you to a fight, armored ugly ape of a Jap!" After that, Jeff turns to his Voltron Team. "I'm not gonna sit here and watch how he take off, Voltron Force..."
