Trivia[]
- There is a running gag in Episode 3 that involves Axel falling on top of Lukas. This happens four times.
- Unlike his teammates, when Axel gains armor in Episode 4, it looks very similar to his original clothes, except with a slightly different texture and a helmet much like the one Magnus wore in the flashbacks in Episode 1.
- In Episode 5 when getting involved in an argument between Ivor and some townspeople regarding his dangerous Lava House, at one point if Jesse remains silent, after he/she face palms, Axel will attempt to touch the lava pouring out of Ivor's house, only to be stopped by Olivia. As well as that, if Jesse tells the townspeople to leave Ivor's house standing, Axel will be seen celebrating by dancing. If Jesse let's the townspeople tear down Ivor's Lava House, Axel can be seen melodramatically falling onto his knees and supposedly weeping for a moment.
- Axel counted as an anti-hero because he wanted to take stuff that didn't belong to him (stealing), scaring Jesse, Olivia, and Reuben even though it was not nice, and even argued with Lukas up to the point of giving out a very hurtful insult toward him; nevertheless, he still fought on the side of good.
- The very hurtful insult Axel gave out to Lukas was calling his jacket "stupid", with the latter responding by telling him to take that back.
- However, over the course of the story, Axel gives up his anti-heroic actions, and becomes a much better person by the end of the series.
