{{quote| '''Jenna:''' Can't you stop talking about yourself for one second, Alex?}}
** Isaac, [[Panty Thief|underwear thief]]:
{{quote| [[Kleptomaniac Hero|Isaac peeked into the wardrobe]]... [[Kleptomaniac Hero, Found Underwear|There's a silk negligee.]]<br />
[[Double Subversion|Isaac! Put that back!]] }}
*** And speaking of wardrobes, we had this in TLA:
{{quote| Felix peeked into the wardrobe... What in-!!! What's with all the wardrobes? Where are all the baths?}}
** Say it with me, kids!
{{quote| '''Briggs:''' Neener neener neener! Neener neener neener! Neener neener... [[Eyelid -Pull Taunt|bleah!]]}}
** Tell Garet you know what the Wise One is in the first game.
{{quote| I know it's a rock, stupid! (implying that was what Isaac thought)}}
Line 38:
*** Saturos is - as noted on the "Golden Sun Wiki" - very popular in fandom for his charismatic personality, and the revelations about Prox in the sequel made his fanbase even ''stronger''.
*** Karst, who easily has the most relatable motives and well-developed character of all the duology's antagonists. The [[Ship Tease]] with {{spoiler|Felix, near the end}} doesn't hurt either, since {{spoiler|so many fanfic writers consciously choose to save her, regardless of whether they actually care that [[The Unfavourite|Agatio]] died with her}}.
* [[Fan -Preferred Couple]]: With Isaac/Jenna being canon (as of ''[[Dark Dawn]]''), Isaac/Mia has become this for the more disgruntled Mudshippers. Garet/Jenna ''might'' be this for Steamshippers but it's rather harder to be certain considering the ''notoriously'' unpredictable and versatile [[Shipping]] base for the series.
** "Prox-shipping" is not actually canon (so far as we know, anyway), but it is pretty rare to see Saturos and Menardi paired with anyone but each other in the fandom.
* [[Fan Wank]]: Due to the numerous hints about {{spoiler|Anemos and its legends}}, many people presume that Sheba {{spoiler|came from Anemos and fell from there into Lalivero}}. The game [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|avoids]] actually resolving this, however. Even so, some people liked the resulting character development, slight as it was.
Line 47:
* [[He's Just Hiding]]: Explicitly stated by the Wise One as a possibility regarding {{spoiler|Alex's fate}} in the ending credits. {{spoiler|Confirmed in ''[[Golden Sun Dark Dawn]]''.}}
* [[Idiot Plot]]: Piers being held captive.
{{quote| [[Non -Player Character|NPC in Osenia Cliffs]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|"Wait, if this is the Champa ship, then that must mean Piers isn't a Champa! So...why does the elder still need Briggs to clear his name?"]]}}
* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: ''Everyone'' is one of these to the fandom
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Saturos' preferred tactic seems to be offering to make a deal with the heroes, but [[Loophole Abuse|wording it so that they don't actually get anything out of it]]. He even [[Crowning Moment of Funny|confuses Menardi]] in a few scenes, much to her irritation.
Line 62:
** Never mind that he ''does'' have his own distinct character traits, [[Fan Dumb|should not be compared to a separate individual he was allies with anyway]], and is really pretty awesome for informing ''[[Magnificent Bastard|Alex]]'' that [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|he knew he was being used but didn't give a damn]], proving he's not as stupid as he looks and he has unique psynergy moves.
* [[Seinfeld Is Unfunny]]: Yeah, they look generic now, but consider that when they were originally made, the Game Boy Advance platform was literally months old. For a handheld game, it actually ''was'' rather impressive for its time. Not to mention, until next-gen platforms game out, it probably still was the best use of the game boy advance's limited sound hardware.
* [[Shipping]]: Enough of a developed shipping fandom that pretty much every possible pairing among main characters is covered with its own [[Idiosyncratic Ship Naming|"____shipping" name]], and with copious amounts of [[Crack Pairing|Crack Pairings]] too. The [[Ship -to -Ship Combat]] can be truly awe-inspiring, especially between Mudshippers (Isaac/Mia) and Valeshippers (Isaac/Jenna). In fact, the shipping fandom is so ridiculously developed that in some circles, even [[Original Character]] ships are named.
** Just as an example of how ''fast'' GS shipping fandom moves, the Matthew/Karis couple was named "Dawnshipping" within an hour of ''Dark Dawn'' being announced.
* [[Surprisingly Improved Sequel]]
