The direct [[Sequel]], set about 15 years after the end of the game, goes by the name of [[Mana Khemia 2 Fall of Alchemy|Mana-Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy]].
 
The character sheets can be found [[Mana Khemia Alchemists of Al Revis (Video Game)/Characters|here.]]

=== Tropes featured in this game (Note- Please post any character-specific tropes on the characters page!) ===
Line 52:
* Bizzarchitecture: Considering the island is created by alchemy, any of the natural landscapes could also apply. And they definitely ''do apply''. Floating midair platforms, endless underground levels, and some seriously big trees are the least of what you see here.
* [[BLAM Episode]]: most of Muppy's Character Quests fall into this category.
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: Pity the poor fool who pacts with the Mana of Light. On one hand, yeah! You get combat abilities far surpassing what one could have without a Mana! And you become pretty awesome! On the other, be prepared to be (possibly publically) humiliated (on a huge scale) whenever the Mana is bored and is in need of entertainment (often).
** {{spoiler|Also Vayne, whose powers bring him nothing but trouble.}}
* [[Boarding School]]: Setting of the game.
Line 76:
* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Pamela; also Nikki and the other Beastman girls. And then there are those angel and demon enemies...
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: it only wants to grant wishes, that's all...
* [[Death Is a Slap Onon The Wrist]]: When your party dies, you conveniently wake up in the school infirmary, none the worse for wear- unless you died in a story important battle, where you get a game over.
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Not ''quite'' friendship, but you get Roxis in this manner.
** Played straight with Nikki's gimmick -- see '[[Monster Allies]]' below.
Line 94:
{{quote| '''Renee''': ...Umm, maybe you shoulda been honest and let them help.<br />
'''Tony''': Don't be stupid! Coming to their rescue to ask for help? That's just uncool. }}
* [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]: The [[Final Boss]], "Crazed Eye(s)". And Living Bomb. And Kamikaze Doll. And so on.
** Also, the so-called "trivia" questions in the School Trivia contest somewhat fall into this, much to the surprise of the contestants.
* [[Expy]]: Melanie, the [[Hello, Nurse!|school]] [[Hospital Hottie|nurse]], is a dead ringer for [[Rival Schools (Video Game)|Justice High's]] school nurse Kyoko. Just as bootilicious, too.
* [[Extreme Doormat]]: Both the school principal and Professor Zeppel lack backbone.
** Same with Vayne. About two thirds of the character sidequests involve his friends browbeating him into doing something.
Line 135:
* [[Idiot Ball]]: Goes around to a ''lot'' of characters at times.
* [[Idle Animation]]: Both in and out of battle.
* [[If I Can't Have You]]/[[Taking You Withwith Me]]: Spoofed in a Character Quest, where an [[NPC]], thinking that Nikki and Vayne are going out, tries to do Nikki in. Of course, they weren't in any sort of danger, comparing the workshop's strengths to the NPCs...
* [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]]: {{spoiler|the ''Final Boss''}}
* [[Impossibly Cool Clothes]]: So...these are uniforms?
Line 272:
* [[Say My Name]]: Used hilariously in Muppy's first character quest, where Jess (in tears, even) shouts out his name ''twice'' after the latter ''self-destructed''...
* [[School Festival]]: Two of which are part of the plot.
* [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]]: The Boss of Chapter 9, although {{spoiler|the Boss isn't actually evil; it was just seeking revenge.}}
* [[Sequential Boss]]: Some optional job Bosses have to be fought at the end of a string of battles. There's also ''the first Boss'' in the game that is fought in such a way.
* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend]]: occurs in this exchange (not exactly word for word):
{{quote| Nikki: (To Tony and Renee) Why don't you two practice your couple's comedy show somewhere else?<br />
Tony: Who are you calling a couple? }}
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: Flay (and a certain Mana) to ''Roxis''... and ''Pamela'', of all people, although it's only seen once, and just for laughs. And definitely to humiliate the resident [[Comically Serious]] even more...
** The Mana of Light also wants to get Vayne and Roxis together platonically (or whatever "Well, it's [[Yaoi Fangirl|close enough to what I was aiming for]]" means).
* [[Shoo Out the Clowns]]: The exact moment the game's mood takes a sudden turn for the serious can be traced back to the scene where the [[Quirky Miniboss Squad|Mook Squad]] is literally sent back home.
Line 299:
** And sometimes if they don't, then things get turned into a [[Timed Mission]] anyway as you attempt to rush to your objective before night falls and the monsters all rocket in power- including the bosses.
*** Oddly enough, some of them are actually [[Take Your Time]], despite having a notation of being timed. For instance, the limit might be one hour, but you can get lost and as long as you don't outright fail the mission, you'll get an A.
* [[Tomato in Thethe Mirror]]: {{spoiler|Vayne's actually a Mana.}}
* [[Transformation Sequence]]: Anna and Jess in their [[Finishing Move|finishing bursts]], though neither really goes through the long extended pretty ribbon-filled sequence.
** Pamela's might qualify too; her bear being Aion, the Mana of Life and all.
Line 305:
** Flay's is debatable, but he basically gets into his mana like it's a [[Super Robot]].
* [[True Companions]]: The workshop.
* {{spoiler|[[True Final Boss]]: See the first entry in the [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]] article. Without enough [[Relationship Values]], the [[Final Boss]] will be the ''main character'' instead}}.
* [[Turns Red]]: One optional job sideboss plays this trope straight. It's a glass dragon that literally turns red when you hit it with a fire element move... and when you do so, it gets several consecutive turns and severely boosted stats. Use ice on it after that, however...
* [[Two-Teacher School]]: Subverted. Classes are recycled only through five teachers (six counting the Vice-Principal on one occasion), but the storyline introduces other generic teachers. [[Double Subversion]], seeing as they don't make too much of an impact anyway...
