** You almost feel sorry for Azala after beating her and the Black Tyrano, given her [[Last Words]]. Ayla takes pity on her and even offers a means of escape, but Azala resigned to her (and the Reptites') fate.
*** YMMV, but it is implied that the earth is unable to support both species. Therefore, Azala was never evil, only an antagonist. Azala is fighting humanity, so Ayla and co. must fight back. When she is defeated and there is no reason to keep fighting, she is sympathetic because the audience realizes that Azala has done nothing wrong, yet her species is doomed to die.
** Opt to kill {{spoiler|Magus}}. Pick up the item he dropped: {{spoiler|an amulet, the very same one that Schala gave to his younger self before she was warped to the Ocean Palace, and the only [[Tragic Keepsake|memento]] of her that he has left}}. [[My God, What Have I Done?|Ouch]].
** {{spoiler|Gaspar expresses sympathy for Zeal after her defeat}}.
* [[All Cavemen Were Neanderthals]]: Averted. While the people in prehistory ''are'' rather simple-minded compared to later time periods, they aren't stupid or completely primitive; they're already showing the signs of a somewhat early form of currency and trade, for starters. Ayla in particular exemplifies the "simple but not stupid" statement above. Not to mention that the weapons and armor you can buy from them are stronger than the armor you come in with (from 2300 AD no less).

* [[Bowdlerise]]: The US SNES translation did this a fair bit. For one, the drinking contests are all real drinking contests (i.e. alcoholic) in the original game.

* [[Boss Corridor]]: A very memorable pitch black room in Magus' Castle, with blue flames that light up as you pass by. The Black Omen has a long hallway filled with ominous holograms of Crono's party.

* [[Boss in Mook Clothing]]: Iron Maiden in the DS version. They hit like a truck, steal MP to counter, and have the highest HP (10,000) of any non-boss in the game. There is a point where you will fight 2 of them at the same time. Fighting them normally would be painful, so people would rely on Robo's Apocalypse Arm's critical hit (9,999 damage) and/or Magus's Black Hole to shortcut the fight.

** Lavos's first form. The first few "bosses" are pathetically easy, since they haven't scaled at all.
