Line 28:
* [[Artificial Stupidity]]: Just about everyone not controlled by the player get stuck on various obstacles, not to mention falling in [[Bottomless Pit]] while trying to reach you or escaping.
* [[Art Shift]]: All the Mega Drive games in Japan feature a precautions guide at the end of their manuals on how to properly maintain their Mega Drive cartridges. However, the precautions guide in the ''Golden Axe II'' manual was drawn in a realistic Americanized style instead of the usual cartoony one.
* [[Awesome McCoolname]]: The three protagonists, Axe Battler, Tyrus Flare, and Gilius Thunderhead. Death Adder too, for that matter.
* [[Bald of Evil]]: The Bad Brothers in the first game.
* [[Barbarian Hero]]: All three of the heroes.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
* [[Bottomless Pit]]: Lots of them, and the [[Speed Run|fastest]] way to defeat enemies is to knock them in there.
* [[Captain Ersatz]]:
** Ax Battler and Tyris Flare couldn't be more obviously based on [[Conan the Barbarian]] and [[Red Sonja]] without being outright copyright infringement. In fact, developer Makota Uchida has outright admitted he rented ''[[Conan the Barbarian]]'' and watched it ''dozens'' of times to get the feel of how a [[Barbarian Hero]] should be depicted.
** Chronos (the panther-man in ''Golden Axe III'') is basically [[Guin Saga|Guin]].
* [[Carry a Big Stick]]: The club-wielding Longmoans and the mace-wielding Heningers.
