* [[Dragged Off to Hell]]: First of all, it happens to any boss that you kill; it gets dragged to Hell by a bunch of clawing red arms. The same thing happens to Bayonetta on the game over screen if you choose not to continue. It turns out that all Umbra Witches get this when they die, not just Bayonetta.

* [[Town with a Dark Secret]]: Vigrid is a closed community with very tight security; the only entrance is via a single rail line, and getting a ticket requires a long and arduous screen process. It's not know what government jurisdiction it's under, but in truth, {{spoiler| it's run by [[Mega Corp| the Ithavoll Group]], which in turn is run by [[Big Bad|Father Baldur]]; the secrecy is due to his goal of awakening Jubilex and starting the apocalypse.}}
* [[Troperiffic]]: The game is basically a love letter to action game tropes, both retro and contemporary.
