Line 69:
* [[Copy and Paste Environments]]: A common feature of all post-millenial Phantasy Star games. PSU had about as many environments starting out as PSO did with all its expansions, with additional variations depending on whether or not the area was infected by the SEED. ''Ambition of the Illuminus'' added more, but many of these are reskins of ''Episode 1'' areas (Justified or not).
* [[The Corruption]]: Any non-CAST (Human, Newman, or Beast) exposed to the {{spoiler|modified}} SEED-Virus will transform into a SEED-form. Most notably {{spoiler|Hyuga in ''Ambition of the Illuminus''}}, which was foreshadowed by {{spoiler|Kou Taragi's transformatin into a SEED-form towards the end of ''Episode 1''}}.
* [[Crap Saccharine World]]: At first blush, the Gurhal System looked like an idyllic place before the SEED Invasion. Then you start learning about the various flavors of [[Fantastic Racism]] an the [[Cycle of Revenge|Cycle of Hatred]] that has been stewing for decades, {{spoiler|that the races Humans designed were originally meant to be subservient, and that there are dark otherworldly forces seeking to lay waste to all life well before the SEED's arrival}}. The overall plot of the series tends to flip the state in the world back and forth between this and [[A World Half Full]].
* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Newmans don't qualify as much any more as their monstrous heritage has been played down, but Beasts sure do make up for that.
* [[Daddy Had a Good Reason For Abandoning You]]: {{spoiler|Ethan and Lumia's father, Orson, faked his death in order to keep his family safe from Illuminus.}}
Line 164:
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Maya, who has the largest breast size in the game (larger than the maximum size for a player's character, in fact!). Her normal method of getting past men is to shamelessly flirt with them—it even worked on Fullyen Curtz, who was a staunch [[Fantastic Racism|CAST Supremacist]] at the time.
** Chelsea from Portable 2 also has a large rack, but she also has [[Everything Sounds Sexier in French|a french accent in the english dub]] and a [[Absolute Cleavage|dress who shows lots of cleavage]].
* [[My Little Panzer]]: Gurhalian toy manufacturers have a thing for making [https://web.archive.org/web/20110921153057/http://psupedia.info/Al_Tip their toys] [https://web.archive.org/web/20090621115929/http://psupedia.info/Real_Hand_Gun_G just a] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120103030546/http://psupedia.info/Hand_Spear little] [https://web.archive.org/web/20100728075258/http://psupedia.info/Papillon_Dance too] [http://psupedia.info/Watergun powerful]{{Dead link}}. There's also weapons that [https://web.archive.org/web/20120608212534/http://psupedia.info/Ank_Bico deliberately] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120427205334/http://psupedia.info/Sig_R resemble] [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507014039/http://psupedia.info/Robopitch_Grenade/C toys].
* [[Never My Fault]]: Happens twice in ''Episode 3'':
** First {{spoiler|the refugees, most notably Pipi Vol,}} blame the GUARDIANS for {{spoiler|the [[Colony Drop|GUARDIANS Colony crash-landing on Parum.]]}}
Line 229:
* [[The Bad Guy Wins]]: {{spoiler|The ending to ''Episode 2''.}} It gets better, though.
* [[This Loser Is You]]: Emilia {{spoiler|at first.}}
* [[Token Mini-MoeLoli]]: Lumia.
* [[Tomato in the Mirror]]: {{spoiler|Vivienne, who finds out she is a Copy-CAST based on Helga to be used as an [[The Mole|Illuminus Spy]].}}
* [[Took a Level in Badass]]: Lumia in ''Portable 2.'' {{spoiler|In Chapter 6, she pulls a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment when she saves the party from a large group of native creatures with a Fire TECHNIC. Even Emilia mentions this during her aforementioned [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]].}} She's no longer the load she was in ''Episode 3.''
