Line 65:
* [[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: Laharl {{spoiler|blows up a space armada.}}
* [[Deal with the Devil]]: In an Etna mode chapter break, she offers to beat up bullies harassing a 7-year old kid, in exchange the kid's servitude as a prinny after he dies. Seeing as this is [[Bad Boss|Etna,]] a nearby prinny immediately objects.
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Several allies join your party this
** {{spoiler|Of course, [[Batman Gambit|there's a good reason for Flonne joining]].}}
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Laharl makes quite a bit of progress in this direction, but never completely stops being an arrogant brat.
Line 71:
* [[Difficulty Spike]]: The game gets considerably harder after you meet the Earth Defense Force army.
* [[Disc One Nuke]]: If by "disc one," you mean "the game proper." It's entirely possible to completely walk over the main game simply by using Laharl exclusively, building his sword skill and having him leveled well past the enemies, with occasional dips into Item World for [[Level Grinding]] and building up his items and specialists. Don't try this in the bonus content though.
* [[Double Entendre]]: Done by Laharl three times
** Not to mention a large portion of Jennifer's dialogue.
* [[Dropped a Bridget On Him]]: Happens in the manga where Maderas becoming attracted to a beautiful woman, only for Etna to tell him that the woman is actually [[Disguised in Drag|Vyers in drag]]!!!
Line 120:
* [[Hello, Nurse!]]: Jennifer.
* [[Her Codename Was Mary Sue]]: Etna loves doing this during most of her chapter previews, particularly the one for episode 6. Laharl and Vyers provide snark.
* [[Heroes Prefer Swords]]: Played straight by Laharl for promotional images and cut-scenes. Being a humanoid character, however, the player can choose to equip him with any weapon. In fact, he's one of the few in the first Disgaea to be highly proficient with multiple weapons.
* [[Hey, You]]: How Laharl refers to Flonne for a whole chapter after meeting her. She [[Beware the Nice Ones|rips him a new one]] for it later.
* [[Hopeless Boss Fight]]: {{spoiler|6-4 Writhing Shadow}}
Line 196:
* [[The Rival]]: Kurtis. His initial class is explicitly stated as "Rival".
* [[Robot Buddy]]: Thursday.
* [[Rounded Character
* [[Say My Name]]: All up and down the final chapters of the first, mostly by '''Captain Gordon, DEFENDER OF EARTH!''':
** Thursdaaaaaaaaaaaay!!
Line 231:
* [[Winged Humanoid]]: Flonne, though outside of one of her attacks, in which they spread out and grow, she's never seen actually flying with them. Etna also has wings, and in ''Disgaea 2'', demonstrates that they actually grow to 3 times their normal size to allow for flight. Official art and a cutscene in Disgaea 2 also reveal that Laharl has a pair under the cape -- [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|and they're absolutely tiny]].
* [[With a Friend and a Stranger]]: Laharl, Etna, and Flonne.
* [[With Catlike Tread]]: When Flonne infiltrates Laharl's castle, she loudly provides sound effects.
* [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: In chapter 4, Maderas does this to {{spoiler|Etna after she unwillingly betrayed Laharl. Fortunately, she foresaw this and her counter-plan was set into motion.}}
** And near the finale, {{spoiler|Lamington, as a reminder to the viewer that he truly is a badass, does this to Vulcanus by turning him into a flower as punishment for his sins (in [[Makai Senki Disgaea]], he turned him into a frog) when Vulcanus gets a [[Villainous Breakdown]] upon finding out that he was an [[Unwitting Pawn]] and tries to kill him after he has served his purpose of bringing peace between Celestia, the human world, and the Netherworld. Serves that mad archangel right.}}
* [[You Never Asked]]: For most of the game, Jennifer is relegated to being [[The Smart Guy]], [[Fan Service]], and cheering from the sidelines. Once she's [[Mind Control
{{reflist}}
