Line 32:
** In World 4, Luigi has to deal with Yoshis and Killer Bills while navigating a very dark cave and an underground mine. Then, Luigi has to stop the invasion of the mountain village by Von Toad II and his frog cronies.
** In World 6, Luigi has two ways to approach the last castle. On one path, Luigi has to deal with exploding bullet birds and [[Slippy-Slidey Ice World|slippery ice blocks]]. On the other path, Luigi has to deal with ''more'' slippery ice physics and plenty of platforming perils.
* [[Demonic Possession]]:
*
** {{spoiler|[[Kirby (franchise)|King Dedede]] gets possessed by Dark Matter in the boss fight of "DDDark Castle". He even coughs up tiny Dark Matters for the second phase of the fight.}}
* [[Difficulty Spike]]: Twice. The redux of Dat Bass fom ''Something'' (which in turn is essentially World 3-3 from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'') is very difficult, but this time Boss Bass is immune to fire. The game undergoes another one during Chateau de La Terre, where Luigi has to face the Big Boo in an arena with only three throw blocks.
* [[Disc One Final Dungeon]]: The Last Castle in Something Else. After reaching the end of the level, the game reveals that {{spoiler|the true final world is on the moon}}.
Line 56 ⟶ 58:
* [[Jungle Japes]]: The first world of the game, designed to contrast against the peaceful Firstep Village.
* [[King Mook]]: Yobigshi is a gigantic version of the Yoshi Imposters.
* [[Kung Fu-Proof Mook]]: Boss Bass from in the level "Dat Bass" - it's immune to being stomped as usual, but has an added immunity to fireballs.
* [[Man-Eating Plant]]: The Fruit Vines and apple-shaped Piranha Plants.
* [[Marathon Level]]: {{spoiler|Switch Room in the Evil Guy's moon base. To finish the level, Luigi has to press the four switches and activate the switch block bridge.}}
* [[Minigame Zone]]: One is unlocked after beating DDDark Castle, and lets Luigi collect extra lives by playing variations of the usual post-level minigame in ''Super Mario World'' (which is played by collecting 100 stars from breaking the Goal Tape). There's also a secret level full of extra lives as well.▼
* [[The Maze]]: "The Mysterious Maze", where Luigi must find the right doors to escape.
* [[Miko]]: Several of them inhabit a village in World 3, though the Boos have kicked them out and possessed their leader Big Boo, whom Luigi must defeat to free her.
* [[Minecart Madness]]: "Mine Catastrophe". Luigi cannot walk on the platforms - because according to a Message Box, he's dumb enough to fall through the holes in-between - and must use the minecarts to make it to the end of the level.
▲* [[Minigame Zone]]: One is unlocked after beating {{spoiler|DDDark Castle}}, and lets Luigi collect extra lives by playing variations of the usual post-level minigame in ''Super Mario World'' (which is played by collecting 100 stars from breaking the Goal Tape). There's also a secret level full of extra lives as well.
* [[Mutually Exclusive Powerups]]: Luigi cannot use the Athletic Peach and the Fire Flower at the same time.
* [[Ominous Floating Castle]]: {{spoiler|Else Castle, Ballser's new base in Something Else. It even has his face as a logo.}}
* [[Palmtree Panic]]: World 5 is this. Luigi can retrieve kitties for a giant cat, interact with mermaids, swim in floating globs of water, storm Dedede's castle, smell the flowers, climb a flower-themed tower, and fight a giant Yoshi Koopa cosplayer.
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: Buzzy Beetles disguise themselves as helpful ? Orbs, but can easily be distinguished as they're always moving - it helps that none of the level exits use ? Orbs.
* [[Pixellation]]: Used to cover up the indecent act between Luigi and the Head Miko.
* [[Pink Means Feminine]]: The Pokeys have large pink lips and pink spikes.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Banzai Bills are red-eyed and very fast, but Luigi can dodge them using red "indicator" coins that show the path each of them will take.
* [[Slippy-Slidey Ice World]]:
** "Baka Kori", which is a reference to ''[[Touhou Project]]'' and has [[An Ice Person|Cirno's]] music playing in the background.
** "Snow Furry Temple", where Luigi is chased by a white FOE.
* [[Smashing Hallway Traps of Doom]]: {{spoiler|Space Hideout}} has a scrolling section where Luigi must dodge electric pulses and big smashers.
* [[Sound Test]]: The player can listen to music thev'ye unlocked in the Bonus Area.
* [[Space Base]]: {{spoiler|The Evil Guy's base is located on the moon.}}
* [[Spell My Name with a "The"]]: The Evil Guy.
* [[Spikes of Doom]]: Spikitu Castles 1 + 2 are naturally infested with Spikitus (Lakitus with spikes in place of hair).
* [[Stationary Boss]]: Von Toad II's machine used during his boss fight - the only way to damage it is to jump on the ball projectiles it shoots out and bounce up to the cockpit.
* [[Storm the Castle]]: Luigi gets to do this. {{spoiler|DDDark Castle is a World 5 secret level with a Dark Matter-possessed Dedede as the boss}}.
* [[Tactical Suicide Boss]]:
** Without the sphere projectile for Luigi to stomp on, Von Toad II's mecha would be far harder to destroy.
** If Monkey Kong didn't toss barrels at Luigi during the phase where Munchers are a prominent obstacle, it would be impossible to beat him.
* [[Temple of Doom]]: Optional level Puzzle Itemple, which requires proper use of springboards and P-Switches to clear.
* [[Tempting Fate]]: The message box in the secret area inside Dino Horse Cloud claims that there is no food in the secret area and that Luigi can't carry out the Yellow Yoshi baby through the door. Luigi proves the message box wrong by having the Yoshi baby eat the message box, as well as the other message boxes within the area.
* [[Throw a Barrel At It]]: Monkey Kong's main method of attack during his boss fight, as an homage to the original Donkey Kong.
* [[Timed Mission]]: "Running Cave". Luigi has to run to the end of the level, but the Chargin' Chucks and the tiny time limit will make it difficult, and there's a section where Luigi has to run or get devoured by a ceiling covered in Muncher Plants.
* [[Title Drop]]: Two of them in one stage. The level "This is Something" has the words "Something Else" appear in block formation in one area, and its name forms a second Title Drop with {{spoiler|Else Castle}}.
* [[Trapped in Another World]]: Luigi is accidentally summoned to the Bears' World because they wanted his brother, Mario.
* [[Under the Sea]]: Star Ocean, which is filled with unhappy and hostile stars.
* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]: "Fantoma Mura", "Yurei no Jinja", and "This is Something" have Luigi using a P Balloon to navigate shoot-'em-up-like sections, as does "Yōsu no Tera 2".
* [[Unreadably Fast Text]]: The Something Else C3 Trailer uses this to warn potential players of the many dangers within Something Else.
* [[Villain Exit Stage Left]]: After the failure of his plot, the Evil Guy says that he's going home and frees the Village Elder.
* [[Wall Jump]]: The other Athletic Peach ability, which is required to pass the first half of Walljump Xtream DX.
* [[Warmup Boss]]: Bigeye, a giant eyeball with no projectile attacks.
* [[Weird Moon]]: {{spoiler|The Evil Guy's Moon Base in Something Else. It even has an evil smirk on its face.}}
* [[What the Hell, Player?]]: The message box at the end of Wet Weird Forest calls out Luigi if he hits it, as doing so activates the message box layer 3 glitch and causes the Cheep-Cheeps to fall to their deaths.
* [[Wutai]]: World 3 has distinct Japanese motifs, the trees are cherry blossoms, and the houses look like Japanese houses from an earlier era.
* [[You All Look Familiar]]: The bears and the Miko villagers of World 3. However, their leaders have unique sprites to make them stand out - the bear leader has a beard, and the Miko leader looks like [[Touhou|Yuyuko]].
