Megadimension Neptunia VII/Nightmare Fuel

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Zero Dimension, which resembles an After The End version of Gamindustri, complete with everything being in various states of ruin with creepy Tron Lines, no human life save the protagonists, and most other flora being dead or dying.
    • And it turns out it IS a version of Gamindustri, specifically one after Planeptune was destroyed in the past and the rest of world went to hell along with it.
  • While she's still largely in the role of a Butt Monkey to an extent, Arfoire is much scarier this time round, mostly because instead becoming an Omnicidal Maniac by being Driven to Madness or by being that to begin with, she knowingly and consciously is seeking to destroy everything of her own free will, even to the point of not caring at all if she is destroyed in the process. It gets so bad that Croire, who stood by while one Omnicidal Maniac ruined one world in Rebirth 3 immediately pulls a Heel Face Turn to stop her because she's that terrifyingly nihilistic.
    • Later, we get to see her making a serious and near successful attempt to kill Ultradimension Neptune.
  • In Vert's chapter in the second part of the game, you wind up having to stop what amounts to genocide. Specifically, you have to stop S-Sha from sacrificing a million Ran-Pigs who used to be former humans, all because S-Sha has the well-meaning yet cold blooded desire to give E-Sha her own body, even though the latter desperately does not want this to happen. The even scarier part is that not only was it utterly unnecessary, the real perpetrator goaded S-Sha into doing this simply to watch over a million souls die for a false cause.
  • Blanc's chapter makes you feel very sorry for C-Sha. On top of being blackmailed by a Corrupt Bureaucrat into doing his bidding or he'll sell out her secret about being an Unwitting Instigator of Doom, she winds up tortured more than once, put through a nearly successful attempt at Heel Face Brainwashing, and is racked with guilt because she falsely believed Blanc set her up, though in truth, Blanc was used as an Unwitting Pawn. And even after all THAT'S cleared up, the real mastermind forces C-Sha to attempt to seal herself in Lowee's Golden Tower because she was further turned into a Doom Magnet against her own will and was terrified she'd hurt everyone around her if she didn't.
  • Noire's chapter has her being the target of the easily manipulated Yandere K-Sha, partially because the disgraced black ops team she banished long ago who are now running Lastastion wants her dead, and Uni is the target of well executed ruse by the same to drive a wedge between Noire and herself. The scariest part of all is that all the manipulation that is going is on is further wearing down the conscience and sanity of K-Sha, who Noire finds out to her horror had been a Child Soldier, and the real mastermind behind the scenes was hoping her and Noire would kill each other.
    • Part of the plan involving Uni has Uni horribly disturbed by Noire seemingly wanting to engage in Brother-Sister Incest at one point, which is part of the plan to drive a wedge between her and Noire by the real stringpuller in the guise of Noire.
  • Neptune's chapter is a little lighter on the Nightmare Fuel for the most part, but even though her and B-Sha become fast friends, B-Sha has a severe phobia that the real villain uses to basically Mind Rape her at one point, so as to make her and Neptune kill one another.
  • The third arc has the Heart Dimension, which is eerily beautiful yet hides a sinister purpose: It's a dimensional Lotus Eater Machine that Kurome has used to not only try to overpower and corrupt the CPUs of the Hyper Dimension, it's also a dimensional go between Kurome is using to disrupt the multidimensional walls so she can obliterate the Hyperdimension and superimpose the blasted to hell Zero Dimension atop it, which would wipe out the former. This gets even more horrifying in the worst ending, where we get to see this succeed.
