Act Two

The big battle scene and resolution of the episode's main conflict.

Most episodes also have two plots going on, with the A plot focusing on one or more character's personal issues, and the B plot focusing on the giant robot battles.

Notes

Many of the stories are reimaginings of multiple episodes/story arcs from Steven Universe, Star vs The Forces of Evil, Sailor Moon (R, S, Super S & partially Stars from the original series as well as seasons 2 & 3 of Crystal), Transformers Energon, and multiple Getter Robo and Mazinger stories. Others serve as sequels (or midquels) to the original Mazinger Z (minus UFO Robo Grendizer) and Getter Robo series, G Gundam, Equestria Girls, Danny Phantom, and many of the other shows featured throughout the series.

The series is very heavily inspired by the Super RobotWars franchise, a series of video games that crossover dozens of giant robot anime, with how it takes multiple storylines and character arcs from different shows and combines them into a single narrative.

The series mostly focuses on action cartoons (or at least cartoons with a large focus on action) and action-based anime, and while there are certain comedic elements, the story tries to take story elements like character's psychological troubles and death scenes seriously. Some comedy-based shows do appear for at least a single episode, but none of the characters that appear join the main cast, so don't expect characters like SpongeBob SquarePants or Bugs Bunny to fight against Godzilla or something.

A common theme of the series, and the Crystal Knights team as a whole, is for second chances, for characters who've lost their way in life or are trying to make up for their previous actions to seek refuge and redemption.
