Line 30:
** It is impossible to fail certain storyline bosses; the game will either freeze your HP at nonzero or grant a free heal should you take fatal damage.
** SSS versions of Memorial Arena bosses come with an optional "buff mode" that grants health and damage buffs to the valkyries every certain amount of time in exchange for a score penalty, allowing players who don't have good gear yet to still be able to get some of the rewards.
** Certain game modes have "LITE" options that let players skip some or all of the content, reducing busywork.
** Elysian Realm:
*** It is possible to give up in the middle of an Elysian Realm stage and start from it again, allowing you to try another time if you fail a timer without needing to replay all the way back from the start. Similarly, 5.4 adds the ability to restart a boss level instead of ending a run for failure, which helps if you were close to victory and could possibly have made it with a bit more skillful play.
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
*** Also in A Post-Honkai Odyssey, triggering a Chase or Treasure Chest Hunt quest will temporarily make all (other) enemies disappear so that you don't need to waste time contending with them on this [[Timed Mission]].
** In the Empyrean Legends event, bringing a full team of [[Level Cap]]ped characters to an EX stage will unlock a secret weapon in case you've been having so much difficulty beating the boss that you ended up maxing out the levels.
* [[The Ark]]: One of the plans the Previous Era had for surviving the Honkai-induced apocalypse was Project Ark, the sending out of a spaceship to find a inhabitable world to evacuate to. It was never heard from again. {{spoiler|It finally reappears at the end of Chapter 40.}}
* [[Ascended Meme]]: After many jokes among the playerbase about A Post-Honkai Odyssey's protagonist being [[Only in It For the Money]], one dialogue option in the second APHO has him saying that he wants to survive long enough to cash in on his pension fund.
* [[Assimilation Plot]]: {{spoiler|The true, finalised form of Project Stigma involves turning humanity into Stigmata so as to protect them from the final Herrscher's attack, whether they want to or not.}}
Line 139 ⟶ 140:
* [[Virtual Ghost]]: The Elysian Realm stores sims of the Flame-Chasers, 13 legendary [[Super Soldier]]s from the Previous Era.
* [[Wham! Line]]: In Chapter 32, a character unexpectedly hits Mei with the claim that what the latter's about to do is in line of something the Herrscher of {{spoiler|Human}} - a thought-dead character - would.
* [[Wham! Shot]]:
*
** Chapter 40-8 - Fu Hua sees {{spoiler|the Fire Moth logo}} in a place she wasn't expecting.
* [[The Worf Effect]]: The Flame-Chasers were far stronger than anyone in the Current Era; an imperfect copy of their [[World's Strongest Man]] with just 1% of the original's power stalemated the Current Era's best Valkyrie. The Herrscher of the End/Finality was so much stronger than them in turn that of the eight remaining sent to fight her, two were dead within five minutes of battle start, and said strongest using all his power was only able to temporarily immobilise her for 12 hours.
* [[World of Action Girls]]: Almost all playable characters are female. The in-universe justification is that women are more likely to be resistant to Honkai than men and there are thus more female Valkyries.
