It and its sequel ''Lightning Warrior Raidy II: Temple of Desire'' are both remakes of an older series (''Thunder Warrior Raidy'') for the PC-98, which didn't make it out of Japan.
A third game was announced in 2008, but news quickly dropped off the radar. Four years later it was released with little to no warning: ''Lightning Warrior Raidy III'' picks up almost immediately where ''II'' left off with Raidy still traveling, but now Fonfon, Tis, and Foless are tagging along, much to her dismay.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Action Girl]] - Raidy
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]] - Shura had purple hair in the PC-98 version, light green in the remake.
* [[A Date
* [[All Men Are Perverts]] - The few that show up tend to be moreso than the
▲* [[All Men Are Perverts]] - The few that show up tend to be moreso than the [[All Women Are Lustful]] women. Interpret this how you will.
* [[Annoying Laugh]] - FonFon's. Even Raidy is annoyed by it.
* [[Anything That Moves]] - The Succubus in the second game used to drain men of their energy, but changed to the point she started draining women, and
* [[Armor Is Useless]] - In regards to non physical attacks, anyway
** The second game has a magical bandanna in a later dungeon that cuts magic damage down to 66%.
*** Both games play this trope straight through the PP-stat. (parry points AKA evade) Your evade stat goes up slowly as you gain levels and is (generally) lowered by wearing armor. The heavier the armor, the less damage you take, but the less likely you are to evade enemy physicals. If your evade is high enough, it pays off wearing earlier/lighter armor to give your PP-stat an additional boost that makes you almost impossible to hit, resulting in less damage in the long run.
* [[Armored Closet Gay]]: Raidy makes it very open every time she's somehow on the receiving end of a lesbian encounter (that she had the slightest bit of say over) she is NOT gay, and that she did not go out of her way to have it happen to her, even though she doesn't try to tear herself away from seeing any other lesbian encounter she might witness and appears to enjoy being the dominant one to every female boss she pays back for what they did to their victims. Further reinforced by her strong distaste for every heterosexual encounter she winds up in (including the very few ones where she had an option to walk away but needed to engage in it for one reason or another).
* [[Bag
** Additionally, in the second game, after getting halfway into the second dungeon, you get captured and lose ALL your money, equipment and items... which you never get back. Annoying if you've been grinding and stocking prior to that point, although you quickly get better gear.
* [[Brains
* [[
* [[Bigger Bad]] - {{spoiler|Jami reveals after you beat her she was basically serving as a middleman for the real [[Big Bad]].}}
** - {{spoiler|
*
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]] - One enemy is called "Medusa" in the first game, when it's clearly a "Dullahan". Also one of the puzzles is translated poorly, leaving its meaning hard to decipher in English, especially because it was based on Japanese perceptions of color.
* [[Boobs
* [[Break
* [[Break
* [[But Thou Must!]] - Very annoyingly played straight in both games with all of Raidy's male encounters. They are usually holding the key to where she need to go, and even if she does consider beating the crap out of them, she usually has to do something sexual for them anyway, and she is usually rather unhappy about it.
** Choices can be also annoying, because most of them doesn't let you, for example, fight the boss to save a poor girl being tortured right away before you have "Look" and "Talk" at least twice for each of that.
* [[Care Bear Stare]] - An erotic variant exists in the second game when you get the sword named [[Incredibly Lame Pun|
* [[Chick Magnet]] - Raidy. In the second game to [[Up
* [[Cute Monster Girl]] - Every enemy save for the final boss in the first game, almost all of the second game enemies that aren't explicitly identified as human.
* [[Defeat
* [[Demonic Possession]] - All random
* [[Depraved Bisexual]] - Every boss could be assumed to be this, seeing as they don't profess a hatred for men, and their sexual torture of women is partially because its their job/they get to enjoy their favorite sexual kink with a partner that really can't resist.
** [[Psycho Lesbian]] - Subverted somewhat in the second game. Almost all the bosses admit to having sexual attraction to women.
* [[Distracted
* [[Downer Ending]] - Two of these. Played straight if you lose to the final boss, and one is actually unlockable as an alternate ending.
* [[Dual
* [[Erotic Dream]] - You can get an item in the second game that induces these.
* [[Evil Twin]] -
* [[Expy]] - Raidy bears a striking resemblance to [[
* [[Fiery Redhead]] - Raidy.
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]] - Lots of characters in the game are [[Fetish Fuel]], but Raidy is a shining example. She's a [[Fiery Redhead]] with [[Shock
** She still gets turned on somewhat by some of her (Forced) encounters with men, so it's likely she's bisexual. Oh, and
** Plus, she explores dungeons and fights monsters in ''[[Foot Focus|
* [[Forced Level Grinding]] - Lots of it in the first game. Not so much in the second, except at the very beginning.
* [[Girls Love]] - {{spoiler|
▲* [[Girls Love]] - {{spoiler| Setia, the innkeeper from the second game, wants to engage in this with Raidy, who can accept.}}
** In a larger context, the series is advertised as containing a lot of this, which is actually true.
* [[Gorgeous Gorgon]] - One of the bosses in the second game.
** [[Idiot Ball]] - She puts a Mirror Shield, the only object capable of rendering her powers useless, into an unoccupied room instead of destroying it.
* [[Heel Face Turn]] - {{spoiler|
** And in the third game it turns out {{spoiler|the sorceress from Cubust's tower, Erouge was never actually evil at all. In fact she's a sorceress with a considerable amount of renown who was originally fairly modest and nerdy-looking, but wasn't terribly fulfilled by her work. Then one day she was abducted by Cubust, fucked silly, and placed under mind control. By defeating her in the first game, Raidy freed her, but Erouge took to sex a little TOO well and now uses her powers to make magical sex toys. At the end of the day she's actually quite nice, enthusiastic and fulfilled by her newest line of work, and may even have a bit of a crush on Raidy.}}
* [[H-Game POV Character]] - Raidy is a Type II bordering on Type I if it wasn't for her tendency to pay evil with evil (as in rape the rapists back).
* [[Hoist
* [[Honor Before Reason]] - Raidy, being a stickler to her [[Honor Before Reason]] code not to hurt human beings, sticks with said code that she won't hurt humans no matter what, even though the said human (from the first game) is a [[Berserker]] who'
▲* [[Honor Before Reason]] - Raidy, being a stickler to her [[Honor Before Reason]] code not to hurt human beings, sticks with said code that she won't hurt humans no matter what, even though the said human (from the first game) is a [[Berserker]] ''who was raping her violently''. {{spoiler| Fortunately, she decided to use her lightning powers to stop him.}}
* [[Hopeless Boss Fight]] - You have to go through one as part of the plot (of the second game) at least once.
* [[Horny Devils]] - Tiss. The Succubus in the second game is another example played even more straight.
* [[Hot Amazon]] - Shura and a few of the other bosses in the second game rather easily count as this, as Raidy even comments on.
* [[Hot Chick
* [[Iconic Item]] - Raidy's yellow headband
* [[
* [[
* [[
* [[Jerkass]] [[Ted Baxter]] - Junk in the second game.
* [[
**
*** The Sorceress (the second boss in the first game) is also going to be in the third game, but as an NPC (and supposedly friendly).
* [[Lady
* [[Lesbian Vampire]] - Camille, played totally straight.
* [[Load
** Subverted in the second game, due to Raidy using [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill]].
* [[
* [[Meaningful Name]] - Raidy. Comes from ''Raijin'', which
** Also, {{spoiler|
* [[Meido]] - Setia, the owner of the inn in the second game
* [[Moral Dissonance]] - For being [[The Hero|
** Granted, compared to her PC-98 version, where she was outright sadistic and cruel in punishing the bosses if she won, her modern day counterpart is actually nicer.
* [[Naive Newcomer]] - Raidy runs into Amura, an amateur treasure hunter who is way in over her head. when it comes to adventuring in the second game.
* [[Naughty Tentacles]]
* [[Nice Guy|
*
** [[Guide Dang It]] (Figuring out the trick to getting through some of the floors is hair rippingly hard without a printed off map of the first game dungeon floors.
** The second game also nerfed getting items from monsters due to the gold based economy, making long dungeon crawls VERY dangerous without stocking up in town first.
* [[Optional Sexual Encounter]] - You are given the option to initiate a few scenes of your own free will in the second game.
* [[Our Angels Are Different]] - {{spoiler|
* [[Our Elves Are Better|
* [[Pirate Girl]] - One of the monsters in the second game.
* [[Petting Zoo People]] - With obscene doses of [[Ms. Fanservice]] for good measure.
* [[Puzzle Boss]] - All the bosses in the first games, save for the last, were impossible to defeat unless you knew their weak points.
** In the second game, most bosses in the second dungeon also have a weakness you must discover before you can defeat them.
Line 103 ⟶ 96:
* [[Save Scumming]] - The game openly admits that you're missing the point if you don't make sure that you both defeat and lose to every end boss (so that you can see all the sex scenes). Of course, the only way to do one once you've done the other is to have a saved game from before the fight. Add to that the fact that most end-boss fights are [[Unwinnable]] if you don't have the right item or knowledge when you enter the room where the boss is (with no option to back out) and experienced players will end up saving and reloading a ''lot.''
* [[Sequence Breaking]] - A weird example (apparently due to an error) in the second game: in one of the rooms in the cave, Raidy finds Amura being raped by some guys. After Raidy knocks them out, Amura tells her about the siren (the boss of that level) who enchanted them, and Raidy thinks about defeating her. The problem is, the door to that room is locked, the key is hidden on the next level, and you can only get to the next level after defeating the siren.
* [[Set Swords
* [[Shock
* [[Shout-Out]] - Possible example with Automatons, who look a lot like Shinku from
* [[Sick
* [[Spell My Name
* [[Stripperiffic]] - Raidy in the second game (especially compared to her look in the first game), and nearly all monsters and bosses. Some of the NPCs in the second game actually avert this, but this is still mostly played straight.
** Suida (one of the bosses of the second game) actually was conservatively dressed in the PC-98 version,
* [[The Call Knows Where You Live]] - {{spoiler|
* [[The Many Deaths
* [[Tin Tyrant]] - Knight Errant and the Dullahan (mistranslated as Medusa)
** Also the boss of the 7th floor of the second dungeon in the second game.
* [[Too Kinky
* [[Underboobs]] - Shura
* [[Video Game Remake]] - Polished up modern version of the PC-98 Thunder Warrior Raidy.
* [[What Measure Is
* [[Whip It Good]] - Fonfon, the first boss.
** And {{spoiler|Jammy, the third boss,}} in the second game. Completely justified because the goal of the enemies is always to capture Raidy and "play" with her... it is an [[H
** Also, encounters with Fonfon in the second games suggests Raidy herself enjoys being on the receiving end of this.
