''Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories'' is the second game in the [[Turn-Based Strategy]] series ''[[Disgaea]]'', and was released in 2006 for the [[
The game stars Adell, the only person unaffected by a devious curse that has transformed all of the human inhabitants of his home village into heartless demons. The source of the curse is Overlord Zenon, a enigmatic figure who became known as the [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|God of All Overlords]] after he [[One-Man Army|slew one thousand Overlords in a single battle]]. Adell's solution to the problem is simple: get his mother to [[Dungeon Bypass|magically summon Overlord Zenon to the village]] and then [[When All You Have Is a Hammer|pound him into submission]].
Unfortunately the summoning ritual ends up conjuring Rozalin, Zenon's [[Spoiled Sweet]] daughter. Having accidentally kidnapped the only daughter of the most powerful Overlord in existence, it's a race for Adell to return Rozalin to Zenon before he tears the world apart looking for her. It's a shame that Rozalin is so sheltered that [[
Joining Adell are his two younger siblings, Taro and Hanako; Tink, Rozalin's childhood friend who has been [[Baleful Polymorph|Baleful Polymorphed]] into a frog; and Yukimaru, a [[Ninja]] girl who seeks revenge against Overlord Zenon for wiping out her clan, [[Verbal Tic|zam]].
Line 168:
* [[Large Ham]]: Overlord Zenon in the dub. {{spoiler|Both real and fake}}.
** In the Japanese version as well, being voiced by [[Norio Wakamoto]] and all... {{spoiler|The fake one, anyway.}}
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: The PSP version of Disgaea 2 is looking to beat Disgaea 3 in this aspect. Alongside the returning playable characters, the optional bosses that were originally not playable in the original in the [[
* [[Lost in Translation]]: The bill to fight Zetta is "Meet The Strongest Overlord." Zetta's self-declared title in Japanese pretty much means that, so it ended up summoning him.
* [[Mana Drain]]: Fubuki.
Line 183:
** Rozalin is just a snob at times; she honestly cares about Adell's family. As for Adell, well, as Etna puts it; they have one of ''[[Tsundere|those kinds of relationships]]''.
** For all her display, Etna does let Adell go when she beats him and it's a [[Nonstandard Game Over]] if he beats her only because it drives the plot [[Off the Rails]]. If you're paying attention, you'll also notice that she takes the hit from Zenon's super blast in the ending in order to protect Hanako.
* [[Now Buy the Merchandise]]: In ''Dark Hero Days'', Aramis, Badman, and Mao all shill the Dark Council for ''[[Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?]], [[Holy Invasion of Privacy Badman]]'' (And its sequel), and ''[[Disgaea 3 Absence of Justice]]'' respectively. Amusingly, their petitions that you watch their commercials always have 100% approval and will pass even if you cheat to make the Council vote no. It's a great way to get items, though.
* [[Obvious Beta]]: ''Dark Hero Days's'' DLC was released with so many crippling bugs and glitches that they had to ''take it down'' from PSN so they could fix them.
* [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]]: The story-relevant fight of Level 1000 Etna vs. Overlord Zenon happens completely offscreen.
