''[[Disgaea]]: Hour of Darkness'' is a [[Turn
It was later ported to the [[Play Station Portable]] as ''Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness'', which added several improvements to the game from ''[[Disgaea 2 Cursed Memories]]'', and added a brand-new "[[Another Side Another Story|Etna Mode]]" which stars Etna rather than Laharl, accessible after the game is won once, or if a [[Classic Cheat Code|specific button code sequence is entered at the title screen.]] It was also ported to the [[Nintendo DS]] as ''Disgaea DS'', which removed most of the voice acting but added [[Greek Chorus|Prinny commentary]] on most of the cutscenes.
A [[Twelve-Episode Anime|short]] [[The Anime of the Game|anime]] called ''[[Makai Senki Disgaea]]'' was released.

Line 17:
'''Flonne:''' Berry Barrier Balidaire!<br />
'''Flonne:''' Durian Dragon Dranyago! }}
* [[Affectionate Parody]]: '''Captain Gordon, Defender of Earth!''', of [[Sci Fi]] B Movies and TV shows like [[Flash Gordon Serial
* [[Allergic to Evil]]: Angel trainees like Flonne sicken and die in the Netherworld without a protective pendant.
* [[Allergic to Love]]: Laharl has a big-time phobia for "happy feelings". One stage uses this against him and cuts his stats in half.
Line 38:
* [[Battleship Raid]]: {{spoiler|Gargantua.}}
* [[Benevolent Boss]]: The previous overlord was quite good to work for.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Call Flonne and/or Etna [[A
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Midway through Chapter 6, Laharl gets attacked by a [[Hopeless Boss Fight|super-powerful]] Alternate Overlord who is out to steal Laharl's place as King of the Netherworld. He promptly splits into ''ten'' copies of himself and [[Hopeless Boss Fight|hands Laharl and his crew their collective asses]]. His goof-off retainers arrive just in the nick of time to save him from death.
** Played with because Laharl suspects that the retainers were hiding in the forest to ambush him but decided to help instead.
Line 44:
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: In the English localization, among the voice samples that were not dubbed was that of the Samurai and Ninja classes.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: The "normal" ending, gained upon beating the game after accidentally (or deliberately) killing someone in your party, is a huge downer. The "good" ending (beat the game without accidentally killing your own party members ''at all'') is the one considered canon, however.
* [[Bonus Boss]]: Baal, [[Disgaea 2 Cursed Memories|Rozalin, Adell]], [[La Pucelle|Priere]], and [[Rhapsody a Musical Adventure|Marjoly]].
* [[Bonus Level of Hell]]: Inverted...every level ''except'' for the last two takes place in the Netherworld.
* [[Boobs of Steel]]: Jennifer, who's a straight up brawler, although the creatable girl brawlers are otherwise flat.
Line 63:
* [[Cute Witch]]: Apparently, Laharl's mother was one of these.
** Flonne could be considered one as well, though she's technically a trainee angel turned fallen angel. Laharl does mention that Flonne is like his mother; though he was referring to her talk of love and demeanor, they may be similar in other ways too.
* [[Cutscene Power to
* [[Deal
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Several allies join your party this way -- Flonne, Hoggmeiser, Maderas, etc.
** {{spoiler|Of course, [[Batman Gambit|there's a good reason for Flonne joining]].}}
Line 190:
* [[Rapid Fire Interrupting]]: '''Captain Gordon, DEFENDER OF EARTH!''''s infamous interrupting Etna in the end of Episode 9. Which ends with...
{{quote| '''Etna''': "Ha ha ha ha", ''MY ASS!!'' *gunshot, beating sounds*}}
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Inverted. Cool blue-haired Laharl has an extremely short temper, while fiery red-haired Etna is calmer and ([[A
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: That Zombie boss at the end of Episode 7. You know which one we're talking about. "A ''horse wiener''? Now, ''that's'' dangerous!" indeed. Jennifer sure loves her [[Naughty Tentacles]], too...
* [[Regal Ringlets]]: The Archer unit has this hairstyle. Later incarnations would change to [[Mega Twintails]].
Line 208:
** At the end of chapter 13, Etna's 'next episode' preview is completely serious and accurately describes the upcoming event, instead of the goofy and wildly inaccurate scenarios she usually predict. The others find this utterly terrifying.
*** When you encounter Vyers at the entrance to Celestia, Laharl calls him "Dark Adonis" instead of "Mid-Boss" as usual, recognizing that the guy may be more than he seems.
* [[Shout-Out]]: [[Disgaea
* [[Smug Snake]]: Maderas.
* [[Succession Crisis]]: The first half of the game.
Line 231:
** {{spoiler|Give human kids an addicting video game to deprive them of their sleep.}}
* [[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
* [[With Catlike Tread]]: When Flonne infiltrates Laharl's castle, she loudly provides sound effects. <ref> Whoosh! Nin nin nin!. Wumph!</ref>
* [[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.}}
