Touhou Mother/YMMV

"Yuugi: Wow, you guys were really reckless. Good thing I like 'em reckless!
 * Alternative Character Interpretation: Plenty:
 * Alice is presented as a Tsundere/borderline Yandere for Marisa; in fact, many Les Yay pairings are hinted at.
 * is willing to betray and backstab none other than, becoming one of the game's Quislings and a Smug Snake.
 * Similiarly,  is a cold-hearted monster who forcibly turns   into another victim of Unwilling Roboticisation and engages in Cold Blooded Torture.
 * Complete Monster:, which comes as no surprise to fans of MOTHER/Earthbound. The Quislings are not far behind.
 * Crack Pairing:  gets a quick Les Yay moment with Yuugi...




 * ... and then is outright propositioned by Satori Komeji. Yes, that Satori Komeji. Hilarity Ensues.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: Seamlessly integrating the soundtracks of Mother, Touhou, Metroid, and many more games into one qualifies the entire score.
 * Iron Woobie: Sanae.
 * Mood Whiplash: All over the place. The game is so full of these that it's very easy to be laughing or enjoying a Crowning Moment of Awesome at one moment then bawling like a baby the next.
 * Nightmare Fuel: Don't think about why Yuka has to near the end of the game for very long.
 * is left alone to guard  for a decade awaiting for her master to return, despite the fact that she never intended to return. Mind that she's living in   where the sun no longer exists and almost everybody is gone.
 * In the sequel, it seems to be completely gone
 * Player Punch: The ending of, as well as pretty much any time the party runs into a victim of Unwilling Roboticisation. Each of these moments will likely increase your resolve to kill the monsters responsible.
 * Don't forget
 * Tear Jerker: A LOT!
 * Reading final message wherein she says good-bye to the old Gensokyo before going to sleep.
 * Most notably is the final battle wherein
 * That One Boss: Fighting Cirno with Sanae.
 * That One Dungeon: I'll never complain about Deep Darkness in Mother 2/Earthbound again after the similar dungeon in this.
 * The path to and completing the dungeon for the final melody is even worse since it's at least twice as long.
