Line 31:
** Niko learns the hard way.
* [[Deus Ex Homine]]: {{spoiler|Eesa was made into a god by the people of the world over a thousand years ago.}}
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: {{spoiler|The party defeating Luze/Eesa. There is also Alf and Clyde destroying the Real rock by themselves, and after both of them had [[The Battle Didn't Count|fought the party!]]}}
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Alf puts up with a lot of abuse for Adele's sake. {{spoiler|He even sticks with her after she orders him to [[Murder the Hypotenuse|kill L'arc]] for her.}}
* [[The Dog Was the Mastermind]]: {{spoiler|Luze seems to be a minor character at first, who the party meets several times throughout the game, but it turns out she is Eesa, the final boss.}}
Line 51:
* [[Global Airship]]: The party gets one midway through the game.
* [[Gotta Catch Them All]]: The Rogress. To be fair, three of them are optional.
* {{spoiler|[[Green -Eyed Monster]]: Adele}}
* {{spoiler|[[Guest Star Party Member]]: Alf, during later parts of the game, including the final boss.}}
* [[Handicapped Badass]]: When you first meet Serge, you find him to be an ex-thief, a smooth talker, cleaver, charismatic, and one of the best magic users the game has to offer. {{spoiler|Then you find out he was THE Legendary Leon, leader of the Lord Knights, which surprises the group greatly as he doesn't fit the criteria at all. Turns out that before Ignacy crippled his sword arm, he was a feisty sword fighter AND magic user and the best there was. [[Kid Hero|All at the age of FOURTEEN!]]}}
Line 57:
* [[Hero Complex]]: Cecille.
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Niko}}
* [[Hey ItsIt's That Voice]]
** L'Arc: [[Clannad (Visual Novel)|Okazaki Tomoya]] and [[Blaz Blue|Hazama]].
*** So ''[[Blaz Blue|that's]]'' [[Actor Allusion|why]] [[Fridge Brilliance|he's]] {{spoiler|[[Rage Against the Heavens|intent on killing Eesa]]}}.
Line 92:
* [[Limit Break]]: Excel Acts.
* [[Literal Minded]]: Ryfia.
* [[Long -Lost Relative]]: {{spoiler|L'Arc and Weiss were actually half-brothers, from the same mother. [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|That explains why Weiss has always watched over L'Arc and Elena, despite his grudge against the gods.]] }}
* [[Lovable Coward]]: Niko.
* [[Love Makes You Crazy]]: {{spoiler|Adele, who also leaps fully into [[Love Makes You Evil]] territory.}}
Line 105:
*** The Rogress also get intimidating powers to go for their names: Simmah, the Logos of Deliverance; Girtab, the Logos of Domination; Absin, the Logos of Judgment, etc.
**** {{spoiler|Then there's L'Arc, who thanks to the events at Antrax, is called 'Lagoon the Cursed' over at Turmelia, and at one point 'Deathbringer' thanks to Alf's rule}}
* [[NamesName's the Same]]: Cecille? [[Luminous Arc|The Twilight Witch?]]
** Alf is pronouced A-ru-fu(アルフ) which can also be translated as, "Alph".
** Niko name is part of "Nikolai".
Line 114:
* [[No Export for You]]: There's another thing this game has in common with the ''Tales'' series; Raging Europhobia.
* [[Obviously Evil]]: [[Smug Snake|Ignacy]]. It really couldn't be any more obvious if he the sky darkened and lightning struck every time he entered a room. Although, to be entirely fair to him, it's not like he makes an effort to hide it. Also, {{spoiler|[[Fat Bastard|Hosea]] for some people}}.
** There's also Weiss, who [[Expy|looks a heck of a lot like]] [[Yu-Gi-Oh|Seto Kaiba]] and is frequently shown to be a [[Blood Knight]] who [[Rage Against the Heavens|hates the gods]] and wants to aggressively expand [[The Empire]]. Oh, and did we also mention {{spoiler|that he literally has [[One -Winged Angel|a draconic wing and claw hidden away beneath his mantle?]]}} The guy is effectively every RPG villain trope glued together. {{spoiler|Although he turns out to be a [[Red Herring]]. He was actually a [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]].}}
* [[Older Than They Look]]: {{spoiler|Rastan/Oigen, Cecille and Dynos. Possibly Ryfia as well.}}
** The entire cast as well looks a little older than you'd expect from JRPG heroes. L'Arc, for instance, is only meant to be seventeen but given his attitude and occupation he seems like he could be about twenty.
* [[One -Winged Angel]]: {{spoiler|Luze's second and final form.}}
* [[Opera Gloves]]: Adele's outfit.
* [[Opt Out]]: Niko
* [[Peek -a -Bangs]]: Weiss is a borderline example, as a lock of hair usually hides his left iris - and as a result, his [[Mismatched Eyes|heterochromia]].
* [[Pimped -Out Dress]]: Quite a few, such as Adele, Luze, Paula and Luna.
* [[Pretty in Mink]]: Adele's outfit, the puff balls on Luna's [[Parasol of Pain]].
* [[Princess Curls]]: Cecille.
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: {{spoiler|Again, Rastan/Oigen, Cecille, Dynos, and possibly Ryfia, all due to being frozen by Imaginal centuries ago. Rastan/Oigen even calls himself a 'relic'.}}
* [[Red Eyes Take Warning]]: Dynos.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Paula and Luna shows heavy shades of this. Paula an aggressively voiced fighter in red who uses mostly fire and wind spells(the offensive elements), while Luna is a soft voiced magic user in blue who uses water and earth spells(the defensive elements).
* [[Respawning Enemies]]: All of the monsters in the over world, sometimes right before your eyes. Any monsters in a dungeon area will respawn every time you leave the room and come back.
* [[The Reveal]]: Two big ones right after Gula church, where Ignacy finally shows his face and {{spoiler|Leon is revealed to be Serge, not Rastan/Oigen}}.
* [[Rose -Haired Girl]]: Adele and Leslie. They're respectively more on the red and pink sides of the spectrum.
* [[Say It With Hearts]]: Leslie
* [[Shaggy Dog Story]]: For Paula and Luna, the ''We Challenge You!'' sidequest involved running around all over the world searching for hidden clues, at the end of the search, the whole thing was revealed to be {{spoiler|a prank left behind by Zamuel meant for anyone who happens upon his clues.}}
Line 158:
** Serge: [[Knife Nut]]
** Cecille: [[Power Fist]]
** Rastan: [[Dual -Wielding|Dual]] [[Cool Sword|Swords]]
** Leslie: [[Guns Akimbo]]
** Paula: [[Sinister Scythe]]
Line 164:
* [[Was Once a Man]]:Heavily implied that most of the {{spoiler|Feldragons are just Divine Race exposed to Hozone and humans experimented on by Ignacy}}
* [[Welcome Back Traitor]]: {{spoiler|Serge and Leslie in the beginning, Alf in the ending.}}
* [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]]: {{spoiler|Weiss.}}
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: There were two preachers, Ryo and Mickey, that you run into at the end of Nabra Jungle, killing two pilgrims and running away just before the boss battle. You never see or hear from them again.
* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: Some of the costumes you get later on... well... you'll have to see for yourself.
* {{spoiler|[[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: ... And when Luze finally wakes up, she learns that people are planning to kill her to "free themselves". This causes her to reject L'Arc's Law that will save both the Common Race and the Divine Race by neutralising the Hozone, as such a world would have no need of her. Even if she had lived, she'd [[Tear Jerker|have lived forever alone and unneeded by the people to perform the duty that they themselves gave her]].}} Somebody give this girl a hug already!
* [[With a Friend And A Stranger]]: The classic [[Eastern RPG]] setup. L'Arc, Adele and Ryfia.
* [[Yandere]]: ''' {{spoiler|ADELE.}}'''
