Line 14:
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: Zohar. Justified in that he/she changes gender depending on what form he/she is. Metatron is male, and Sandalphon is female.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Dynamis. Most of her lines are nonsense about flowers.
* [[Cutscene Power to the Max]]: Zohar is ''insanely'' overpowered in cutscenes, but his/her abilities in actual gameplay appear to be on a level with Shyna's. He slices a building in half. Nuff said.
** He slices a building in half. Nuff said.
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Zohar. See [[Your Princess Is in Another Castle]] below.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]] and [[Light Is Not Good]]: The "dark" Silhouettes and "light" Mirages both include friendly and enemy characters.
Line 26 ⟶ 25:
* [[Gainax Ending]]: The somewhat vague ending text may propel the game into [[Mind Screw]] territory.
** [[Bittersweet Ending]]: That said, some of the endings are like this. One is a borderline [[Downer Ending]].
* [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere]]: You can be forgiven for not anticipating the {{spoiler|out-of-nowhere battle with Hal's jealous daughter, Geluve}}.
** Just her? Most of the bosses in this game are like this, with some bordering on full-blown [[Non Sequitur Scene]].
* [[The Grim Reaper]]: A [[Skippable Boss]] appearing about two thirds of the way through the game.
* [[Grotesque Cute]]: The Specters, Silhouette [[Mooks]], have heads that look like dark green Jack-o'-Lanterns and [[Super-Deformed]] proportions. Conversely, the Polly Peepers, their Mirage equivalents, have ugly faces hidden under blandly cutesy masks. Dynamis, the first of the [[Boss Battle|Guardian Angels]] you must face, looks like a giant fish with tentacles and a cute little girl's face (pictured above).
* [[Hollywood Science]]: Bizarre manglings of genetics and cybernetics are part of the game's plot.
* [[It's a Wonderful Failure]]: The game over screen depicts Shyna exploding.
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: Shyna looks like a cute little blonde girl with goofy hair and strangely-colored eyes. She is also nicknamed the Messenger of Destruction for a reason.
* [[Magical Computer]]: For inadequately explored reasons, the world displays ''[[The Matrix|Matrix]]''-like properties as if it's all a big computer program, but as far as anyone can tell, it's the real world.
