Record of Agarest War/YMMV

Agarest Senki

 * Alas, Poor Villain:
 * And the Fandom Rejoiced: US and EU are getting Agarest Zero!? Aksys is handling the localization again!? YEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!
 * Canon Sue: Rex, in fact one of Nico Nico Douga MC comments "This guy is too perfect!"
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: Ever pull a 6 character combo on a boss before? Well its really, really Awesome once you use high level multi-hitting combos that chain into special attacks for the sweet sweet overkill message.
 * Pull off Ultimate Formation. Just pull off Ultimate Formation.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: King of Terrors is one because of the fact that you
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: The voting system is up as to who people want to bring back in Agarest 2 and Leonhardt is number 1 and Valeria at number 3.
 * Game Breaker: Stacking enough ATK+999 or MAG+900 is enough to turn anyone into your best fighter or mage. Stack your entire party with them, and you can literally K.O. the final boss in one round.
 * The DLCs are very broken too, for example one of the DLC provides you with Gate of Heaven one of the most powerful scythe weapon and the other DLC pack gives you more than enough EP to fully enchances it.
 * Les Yay: Not quite but this reminds me of it so so much.
 * Deeth probably counts as this and Ho Yay, being a hermaphroditic god that flirts with Dyshana while appearing as a female and doesn't seem to mind Thoma trying the same toward her. He does this after she states that she probably should've shown up as a male.
 * Memetic Badass: Go on, just ask people who have played the game. Most of them would bow down to the greatness of The Rock.
 * As far as characters go, Reverie is one thanks to a bug. She's the only one who's able to wield the most powerful spear of the game.
 * Most Annoying Sound: Agarest characters walk very loud, even louder than Final Fantasy XIII's characters.
 * No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: It is believed that Aksys was trying to pull off this trope to get more sales. While the ESRB clarified a few things, the sales however of the game reached at least forty-two thousand in it's first week here in the USA.
 * Scrappy Level: Alzai Fen. Populated with enemies that are on the level of Goddamned Bats, some of them literal bats. And that's assuming you're not going for the Apostle of the Swamp title ASAP. Tree Spirit's intervention makes those Bats into Demonic Spiders.
 * That One Boss: Midas, for many players thanks to his ridiculous Phoenix Strike.
 * Midas. Every turn he kills all party members within 2 cells and regenerates 1/4 of his health.
 * Midas, whose Limit Break is a guaranteed Total Party Kill.
 * For some people, Keith is also a candidate for being That One Boss just because
 * Too Cool to Live: Every main protagonist except Rex. Even him need to be in the true ending route to survive.
 * The Untwist: Seriously, who wouldn't suspect
 * The Untwist: Seriously, who wouldn't suspect

Agarest Zero

 * Narm: The one weapon that can defeat the gurgs, is Werdefahrt. Try saying that without cracking up poop jokes.
 * "Wake-Up Call" Boss: Leptocephalus and its henchmen of Fire Spirits will cause players to grow frustrated unless they either do some Level Grinding or buying the DLC items.

Agarest Senki 2

 * And the Fandom Rejoiced: Agarest Senki 2? Hmmph, it's probably another short story that only lasts for like 20 hours added with the original story as extras like ZERO...What? It's going to be even longer than the original? YE...What? The pink haired heroine will start as a child again? FORGIVEN!!
 * Darker and Edgier: In comparison to the first game.
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Victoria
 * Even Better Sequel
 * Game Breaker: Arc-en-ciel, this skill is basically the reason why this game never crossed the Nintendo Hard line.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: Kana Ueda voices the high elf Ellis in the first game. Fair enough. In Agarest 2 Another Kana voices the high elf Fiona. And you can have them both in the same party. Too bad no combination attack with Ellis and Fiona.
 * Memetic Badass: The "Fairy" Mook. Here's why.
 * Moral Event Horizon: sprints with it. He was a pretty decent guy in the first generation (seeing as you don't do much in  at that point), but once generation two starts rolling in, he tricks the party to do a long Fetch Quest for him,
 * Nightmare Fuel:
 * That One Boss:  Needless to say, if you did not have a back up save, and a back up party to replace the four of them, you might as well restart the game. This battle is still considered as a Boss Rush too. What this means is that whatever HP you had from the last boss fight, your HP is still going to be the same in this fight.

Record of Agarest War Marriage

 * And the Fandom Rejoiced: Bah, what kind of a weird art design is this with all these loli-fied designs!? Why is it on the PlayStation Portable instead of either the Play Station 3 or Play Station Vita!? Wait, did they just announce that the second generation protagonist WILL BE A FEMALE PROTAGONIST!? ABOUT TIME COMPILE HEART!

Characters

 * Alas, Poor Villain:
 * Kasibal.
 * Dark Knight
 * Anticlimax Boss: For a god of war, Mayastia sure is pretty easy to defeat.
 * Complete Monster:
 * Mobius.
 * You only ever seen anything even remotely redeeming about Mila in the True End. Even then it was just an alternate attempt at taking someone down with her.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: Thoma Raglen pulls off an awesome speech when an elf was badmouthing Lavinia due to discrimination. He then recites word for word as to why men should protect women, and that race has nothing to do with it. He leaves the arrogant elf speechless. Take note that up until this point, Thoma is nothing more than just a funny guy who loves women. When he pulled this speech off, this troper punched the air.
 * Crowning Moment of Funny: Four words: Ellis, is Borgnine nearby?
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Must be the qualifications of a harpuia in this game.
 * Ensemble Darkhorse:
 * Everyone loves Winfield, or to be more exact no one hates him.
 * Fyuria.
 * Valeria. Enough to be at the number 3 spot as to who people want back in Agarest 2.
 * Thoma Raglen. If we're talking about the protagonists themselves, he's the one a lot of people are interested in.
 * Silvi.
 * Murmina.
 * Game Breaker:
 * Ellis's 2nd EX is healing all characters on the fields. The game-breaking part? It has 10 range, which means just connect your character with Ellis you can strike any enemies on the field.
 * Plum's 2nd EX Maiden Prayer has 100 SP recovery effect which means focus on raising her SP to 100 on the 1st turn, next turn use Maiden Prayer and hello EX Spam.
 * Moe Moe:
 * Ellis as a kid.
 * When Fyuria Smiles.
 * Ryuryu.
 * Mimel.
 * Fiona.
 * Never Live It Down: Yayoi. See Yum Yum.
 * That One Boss:
 * While you can mop up the two previous generations with ease, Midas will certainly murder you over and over again with his Phoenix Strike. With a range of two squares in front of him.
 * Keith to some people due to the fact that
 * To Cool To Live: Leonhardt Raglen in the end.
 * The Woobie:
 * Lavinia. Gets discriminated by high elves wherever she goes.
 * Mimel.
 * Niel.
 * Viewer Gender Confusion: If it weren't for Duran Raglen's deep voice, he'd probably pass as a girl to viewers.
