Black Matrix: Difference between revisions

When the first game came out, it was described as [[X 1999|X]] or [[Angel Sanctuary]] [[X Meets Y|meets]] [[Final Fantasy Tactics]]. Nowadays, the series can also be described as a [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Disgaea]]<ref>[[Disgaea: Hour of Darkness|The first Disgaea game]] can be considered an [[Alternate Company Equivalent]]. It shares many similarities with the B/M games that predate it. For starters, both series are SRPGs that feature humans, angels, and devils/demons (both ''akuma'' in Japanese) with their own generically-named worlds, the same across both. The demons of Disgaea have a [[Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad]] mentality much like the first B/M. The general plot of Disgaea mirrors B/M 2. Both protagonists are family members of their somewhat-dead Maou, are recently awakened/resurrected, working to stabilize Makai in the absence of the Maou, have to contend with humans being manipulated by angels, spend most of the game in Makai with the end part in Tenkai, revolve mostly around a [[Power Trio]] dynamic in terms of plot, have a token angel party member, come with multiple endings, and have a new game plus feature. The main differences are general tone and mechanics. Flight-Plan's offering is [[Darker and Edgier]] with [[Anti-Grinding]] whereas [[Nippon Ichi]]'s offering is [[Lighter and Softer]] with [[Level Grinding]]</ref>.

* [[Hundred-Percent100% Adoration Rating]]: [[The High Queen|Jenarose]], back when she was alive, had this among the devils. It's said that even the most foolish of devils in the middle of fighting each other would stop if they heard her request so. Her resurrection is seen as a way to end the in-fighting. Even [[Knife Nut]] [[Psycho for Hire]] Uni, who generally does not use [[Japanese Honorifics|honorifics]], uses ''-sama'' when referring to her.
