Superhuman Centurions[]

An Alien Affair - Superhuman Ace

Shouting "Power Xtreme!" God Level: In the void of space WITHOUT A HELMET.

Instances where the Centurions break the rules of physics and human anatomy. Mostly when they shout "Power Xtreme!" in harsh conditions where no ordinary man could survive. We know it's a cartoon, but when you make a science-heavy cartoon, you know something's not right.

  • Ace's is able to shout "Power Xtreme!" in space WITHOUT USING A HELMET prior to his Skybolt-Orbital Interceptor equipping for the first time in the series.

Foreign names[]

  • Un Nuevo Enemigo (A New Enemy) - Spanish dub.
