Line 71:
* [[Soundtrack Dissonance]]: The [[True Final Boss]] fight with {{spoiler|Maya Eve}} atop the Chrysler Building in the [[New Game+]].
* [[Sprite Polygon Mix]]: Of the "Polygons on Bitmap Background" sort.
* [[Tears of Blood]]: The ''Statue of Liberty'' looks like it's crying blood, just before {{spoiler|the reconstituted and nuked cells of the Central Park patrons knock it over}}.
* [[Tech Demo Game]]: ''Parasite Eve'' was, by and large, a tech demo for the graphics engine that would later fuel ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]''. Luckily, it still managed to be a decent game in its own right.
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: The woman who plays host to Eve. Prior to her performance, she was taking her medications in extremely high amounts in fear that she might get ill and be unable to play her part in the opera. The problem with that? Her meds were IMMUNOSUPPRESSANTS, meaning that they make her immune system weaker, so she was increasing the likelihood of becoming ill, not reducing it. From the description given in her journal, she was taking enough that a minor infection would have been fatal to her, let alone something like Eve.
* [[True Final Boss]]: {{spoiler|The original Eve (A.K.A Maya)}}.
* [[Ultimate Lifeform]]: {{spoiler|The Ultimate Being, which is the final boss of the regular game}}.
* [[Underground Monkey]]: The majority of the Chrysler Building monsters.
* [[Universal Ammunition]]: The only weapon that doesn't share ammo is the rocket launcher. So, is your 7.62x51mm battle rifle running low on ammo? Just borrow a few rounds from your 9mm service automatic and your 40mm grenade launcher. Especially since what normally are considered ammo properties are attached to the guns... and transferable...
* [[Useless Item]]: Lampshaded by Maeda's 'charms', which he hands over to Aya throughout the game. They each fill an item slot but serve no purpose. In the finale, Maeda tries to deliver the [[Eleventh-Hour Superpower]] to Aya, but Daniel drags him away, [[Crying Wolf|assuming it's just more mojo crap]].
* [[Victoria's Secret Compartment]]: Where Aya keeps her badge while dressed for a night on the town. Where she keeps her gun in that outfit remains a mystery. [[Informed Equipment|Don't even ask about her billy club and body armor.]]
* [[We Can Rule Together]]: Eve's stock offer to Aya throughout the first game... until she discovered Aya was the ultimate subversion of herself, where that pretty much ceased.
