''Knights of the Round'' is a [[Beat
The story starts out with young Arthur training and finally pulling down the [[Only the Chosen May Wield|Sword in th-]]eh, [[Excalibur in The Stone]], and thus becoming the King of England. However, most knights aren't pleased to find out they must follow this "boy king", and thus rebellion and war break out over the land. Arthur goes to Merlin for advice, and he reveals that only the Holy Grail has the power to unify the war-torn England under his rule. So, he and two of his best friends (Lancelot and Perceval) set out to find it, eventually discovering it is on the possession of an evil knight known as Garibaldi.
Line 20:
* '''Garibaldi, the Golden Emperor'''. The [[Final Boss]], a [[Palette Swap]] of his brother Arlon, albeit beefed-up considerably. He starts the fight mounted on a horse, and using Braford's energy blasts.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Action Bomb]]: The Buster Drones in the section just before the Iron Golem. Whenever ''anything'' hits them, whether your blade or the ceiling spike balls, they'll blow up in a short-range flame scatter.
* [[Anachronism Stew]]: Muramasa's weapon and armor would not be developed until several ''centuries'' after the time when the Arthurian legends were supposed to take place. Then again, the same could be said for the kind of tourney that takes up the first part of stage 4 (and more than a few French retellings of the Arthur legends).
Line 50 ⟶ 49:
* [[Doppelganger Attack]]: An oblique version occurs when Phantom's second group of escorts appears. Two of them are Sky Walkers, [[Mook|Mooks]] that look just like him--and ''these'' are a one-time case where even the ''colors'' are the same! However, they do ''not'' attack in the same fashion, their only special attack being to throw a dagger straight ahead.
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Balbars.
* [[Dual
* [[Dumb Muscle]]: Balbars.
* [[The Emperor]]: Arlon and Garibaldi carry this title.
Line 62 ⟶ 61:
* [[Large and In Charge]]: Both Garibaldi and Arlon are quite humongous.
* [[Level Up Fill Up]]
* [[
* [[Mighty Glacier]]: Perceval as already noted. Balbars, Arlon and Garibaldi as well.
* [[Money Spider]]: Enemies will often drop treasure chests upon death.
Line 76 ⟶ 75:
* [[Sinister Scimitar]]: Lancelot, albeit without the "sinister" part since he's one of the heroes.
* [[Shockwave Stomp]]: Arlon and Garibaldi.
* [[Spell My Name With an "S"]]: Perceval (which ''may'' count in itself) is consistently typoed ''Parceval'' during the ending.
* [[Stab the Sky]]: The [[Victory Pose]] of all three heroes upon completing a stage. Also, the three heroes and a host of good knights do the same in the ending.
* [[Storming the Castle]]: Both Stage 03 and 07.
* [[Sword Beam]]: Braford and Garibaldi can do this.
* [[Teleport Spam]]: The Magician [[Mooks]].
* [[Five
** [[The Hero]] - Arthur
** [[The Lancer]] - Lancelot
Line 89 ⟶ 88:
* [[Unflinching Walk]]/[[No Sell]]: Balbars has no stun animation.
** [[The Juggernaut]]
* [[
* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]: Perceval, who doesn't get a shirt in any of his look-upgrades.
* [[Wasted Song]]: The fanfare at the end of each level.
