Arc Rise Fantasia/YMMV


 * Complete Monster: One word. Ignacy.
 * Where to BEGIN with Ignacy? Well, when we first heard of him, he's an old rival of Zamuel and Leon's, fatally injuring your Old Master on the ground with petrifying wounds, and Rastan makes a point NOT to fight him. He also comes up briefly when you find out he had a part in killing the Real Diva Rafil Then you hear of him again when the Rogress Gula went nuts because of an altered Biocode when he tried copying it. It Gets Worse when
 * Designated Villain:
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Weiss's something of a fan favorite. It's not hard to see why.
 * Good Bad Bug: There's a glitch that allows you to equip body armor to all parts of the character, even on the accessory and foot sections. This effectively lets you have a bosses level of defense. It makes the game's hard boss battles far more manageable.
 * Les Yay: Leslie and Shelly Greenhill. Seriously, just look at what happens  Ryfia and Cecille also seem to want a taste of Leslie.
 * Moral Event Horizon: Ignacy crosses it before the game begins . Of course, if that doesn't do it for you, then there's everything he does at Lascarde. was so badly traumatised afterwards that  crossed the Despair Event Horizon and became an Omnicidal Maniac.
 * The Untwist: reveals  to be "Allul of the Twelve" long before you realize that  actually a Rogress.
 * When, L'Arc stops him, telling him that fratricide can't be the answer. Weiss , and the game then tries to make it seem like a twist hours later when.
 * The Scrappy: Niko to some, due to his constant cowardice.
 * His voice doesn't help things either.
 * Selfish Evil: Ignacy. Emphasis on the "selfish" part.
 * So Bad It's Good: The voice acting is quite unintentionally hilarious.
 * Narm: Many moments, but one in particular stands out Niko's  are "I sound stupid, so I'm switching off." Sure, It Makes Sense in Context   but
 * Spiritual Licensee: The game could be considered one to the Tales Series. Not only are the characters of anime design, there are skits that tend to be on the light-hearted side and costumes (that can only be seen on the character portrait). At least two of the developers also worked on the Tales Series: director Hiroyuki Kanemaru from Tales of Symphonia and scenario writer Takumi Miyajima, who worked on Tales of the Abyss.
 * Stoic Woobie: Rastan has had a very sucky life, but you won't catch him angsting about it.
 * The Woobie: You'll really want to give Luze a cuddle once you find out her backstory.
 * Don't you dare tell me that Eesa isn't one!
 * Don't you dare tell me that Eesa isn't one!
