[[File:mitsumete_knight.png|frame|[[Loads and Loads of Characters|Ten of the sixteen main heroines of the game]]. Starting from the girl at the very top and clock-wise : [[Bokukko|Hanna]], [[Mysterious Waif|Anne]], [[Cool Big Sis|Noel]], [[Emotionless Girl|Rai]][[Ensemble Darkhorse|zze]], [[Token Mini-MoeLoli|Laury]], [[The Hero|Sop]][[The Woobie|hia]], [[Mad Scientist|Menesys]], [[Alpha Bitch|Li]][[Rich Bitch|nda]], [[May-December Romance|Claire]], and [[Everything's Better with Princesses|"Priscilla".]]]]
 
''Mitsumete Knight'' (みつめてナイト, Mitsumete Naito, lit. « Admire Knight », « Gazing Knight ») is a 1997 [[Dating Sim]] on [[PlayStation|Playstation 1]], made in cooperation by [[Konami]], and Red Company (of ''[[Sakura Taisen]]'' fame). [[Spiritual Successor]] of Konami's smash hit ''[[Tokimeki Memorial|Tokimeki Memorial : Forever with you]]'', it uses the same game engine and most of its successful mechanics, but with several twists.
Line 32:
* [[Betting Minigame]]: The Blackjack mini-game.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: The Asian will get quite a number of these, where he saves the day and/or the girls.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: {{spoiler|The best you'll be able to grab in this game, as at the end of the game, the Asian will have to leave Dolphan Kingdom regardless of if you defeated all 8 Generals, got the Holy Knight title or even scored Princess Priscilla, because of the Expulsion of All Foreigners Act [[Deadly Decadent Court|forcefully concluded by the powerful]] [[Aristocrats Are Evil|evil Pixis and Elites aristocrat families]]. The ending will then be bittersweet if you managed to score a girl, as they'll follow the Asian, with the exception of [[Token Mini-MoeLoli|Laury]], who's too young to go, and [[The Ojou|Sarah]], [[Ill Girl|whose body is currently too weak.]]. For those two, the Asian promises them to come back to them a few years later, when they'll be older / healed.}}
* [[Book Ends]]: This game uses this narrative method, especially if {{spoiler|you get a Bad Ending where you fail to get both the Holy Knight title and a girl}}. See the entry for a detailed explanation.
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: Unlike Tokimemo, most characters are more sincere with their feelings with the Asian and consider themselves his girlfriend, as there's no legend holding them back. Some of them, such as Sophia, play it straight, though.
Line 83:
** [[Nobutoshi Canna]] as Necselaria of the Gale,
** [[Hideo Ishikawa]] as Johan Elites.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]] / [[Red BaronSobriquet]]: All eight Generals of Valpha-Valaharian have [[Badass]] and intimidating nicknames. Special mention goes to Wolfgario "The Ravager", leader of the Generals, and Zeelbis "The Bloody", [[Meaningful Name|one hell of a]] [[Complete Monster]].
* [[New Game+]]: If you manage to meet and defeat [[The Cameo|Sparkster]] during a playthrough, and save your game in a Memory Card after having completed your run, the Secret Shop will be available in the game's Option, allowing you to start a new game with a stat-boosting item. However, most items need to be unlocked via various specific quests during the game, [[Training from Hell|such as reaching Level 64]] in order to unlock the most powerful item, [[Infinity+1 Sword|the Mitsumete Sword]].
* [[Not Named in Opening Credits]]: The names of the Eight Generals' seiyuu are not displayed in the second version of the game's opening, unlike in the first version which presents the heroines. This is probably ('''HEAVY SPOILERS''') {{spoiler|to avoid busting [[The Reveal]] about [[Ambiguous Gender|Salishuan]] [[Bonus Boss|the Spy]] being [[Emotionless Girl|Raizze]] [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Haimer]], by showing their seiyuu's name, [[Yumi Touma]]}}.
Line 157:
* [[Warp Whistle]]: The statues present in nearly every town of the game allow you to warp to any of those towns by touching them, but you first need to activate the system by gathering the 3 Slates of Earth, Sea and Sky scattered throughout the world, and then place them in the machine inside {{spoiler|the Pyramid}}.
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Each main character has one. MacLeod and Sophia [[Heroes Prefer Swords|both use a sword]] ; Raizze is a master fencer with [[Royal Rapier|the rapier]] ; Hanna has a [[Battle Boomerang|boomerang]] as a weapon ; Leslie uses [[Power Fist|claws]] ; and Linda's weapon is [[Whip It Good|a whip]].
* {{spoiler|[[Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters]]}}: The true nature of the terrorist organisation O2 (short for "The Opposition to Orcadia"), [[New Game+|revealed upon a second playthrough]].
