Awesome / Choujuu Sentai Liveman

Go To

  • At the end of the first episode, Jou's run off somewhere while Yuusuke and Megumi are fighting under severely bad odds. Then Jou comes running up in the Land Lion. The convincingly quadrupedal Land Lion.
  • The first two episodes are some of the most action packed and awesome moments of the series. Even Dr. Hoshi gets an awesome moment when he rescues a pregnant woman.
  • Super Live Robo's first appearance, which raised the bar for future mecha just a little bit higher. Its first fight sees it defeating the nigh-unbeatable Giga Volt mecha, which up until that point had been giving the Livemen an extremely hard time. Ashura (piloting Giga Volt) can't believe what he's seeing. "Super Live Robo?!"
    • One for the toy makers too, as the Live Robo toy was not designed with a combination in mind, and they had to make them combine. (It was apparently met with considerable surprise at the in-house unveiling.)
  • Anything Arashi Busujima does when he's NOT Ashura.
    • In his first appearance, he successfully beats a Brain Beast into submission, using only hand to hand combat.
    • In his last appearance, he helps the Liveman defeat a Brain Beast by blowing himself up with it.
  • While Bias has successfully mind-controlled everyone on Earth (except for Yuusuke, and he's infiltrating their base), Fear Beast Brain is approaching the defenseless team with deadly intentions. Cue Colon flying in with the Live Robo, declaring that she's immune due to her being a robot, and blasting (human-sized) Fear Beast Brain with the Live Robo Beam. Turns out this is a Hope Spot...
  • The Darkest Hour comes when Bias gets the final brain he needs and uses the Giga Brain Wave to brainwash the entire world, including the Livemen, into bowing down to him... all except for Yusuke, who managed to board a Volt shuttle at the very last moment. He proceeds to tear through the Brain Base looking for Bias, fighting his way past Jimmers all the while, and when he finally confronts Bias he stabs him and averts the Giga Brain Wave, singlehandedly saving the world. It's only because of Yusuke that everyone didn't become zombie slaves of Bias.
  • At first glance, Bias dies in a fashion similar to the other villains. However, rewatching the final arc turns it into this since the Laser Guided Karma involved is much more obvious.
  • You know who ultimately beats Bias? It's actually... Megumi. When he crash-landed on earth, Bias had de-aged to a kid, and Megumi has the perfect chance to shoot him dead, but... can't bring herself to shoot him as a kid. Bias proceeds to taunt her how weak she is for not being able to shoot a kid. Megumi instead tells him to shut his trap and tells him that for all his grandeurs, his maturity is that of a weak kid wasting away his youth. Would look normal, if not for the fact that Megumi's verbal beatdown is pretty much the catalyst of the now-brain Kemp/Tsukigata AND all 12 brains that Bias absorbed previously to regain their mind and start wishing they could restart their youth and revert Bias into an old man. Give props to this... gal who's thought to be crying 24/7, guys. She's the one who caused the ultimate downfall of the Big Bad!
