*** To understand how over the top the trailers could get, Etna announce in one that the [[Everything Is Better With Penguins|Prinnies]] will [[Fusion Dance|fuse]] to transform into [[Humongous Mecha|Pringer X]]. Not only that but they go as far as showing you in game screenshot of your characters fighting and being attacked by Pringer X, the damage counter being shown as well. You could be easily forgiven if afterward [[Like You Would Really Do It|you didn't believed the serious trailers afterward]].
** This tradition was resurrected for ''Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice'', with a different character voicing each 'Next Episode' spoof, each of which was declared to be the 'Final Episode' of the imaginary series. And, true to the tradition, the ACTUAL Final Chapter had a completely honest trailer, right down to being declared as the Final Episode...
** Continued in ''[[Disgaea 4: aA Promise Unforgotten]]'', with each segment (Save for the last one) having little to do with the next chapter, and always involving Valvatorez's sardine obsession in some form or fashion.
*** Another example would be the game's introduction movie, which ends with a [[Team Shot]] including Axel, which might lead you into thinking he's a part of the team. {{spoiler|He doesn't officially join until the post-game, and mostly plays a supporting role until then.}}
** And in ''Disgaea Infinite'' leave the game on at the title screen and the demo will show a trailer for... ''Disgaea: Hour of Darkness''! Laharl and Etna are not happy with the trailer, stating some things were lost in it...
