Line 37:
* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: Beat the game and you get the option to change your outfit at the start of a new cycle. Your choice influences your starting stats.
* {{spoiler|[[The Antichrist]]: What Lucifer wants you to become. Should you take the True Demon Ending, it happens.}}
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]: Many players were surprised to find the battle against {{spoiler|Lucifer in the True Demon Route}} very underwhelming, especially when compared to the some of other nightmare-inducing [[Bonus Boss|Bonus Bosses]] of the franchise ([[Digital Devil Saga]]'s {{spoiler|Demi-fiend}}, anyone?). The only "trick" for the fight is to {{spoiler|keep the skill 'pierce', which you will gain from beating the Fifth Kalpa and use the game-breaking combination of Debilitate + Focus + Freikugel}}. Although to be fair, {{spoiler|it's more of a [[True Final Boss]] than a [[Bonus Boss]], as you're required to win this fight to beat the game for the True Demon Ending}}. And even though he's not as strong as some [[Bonus Boss|Bonus Bosses]] in the [[Shin Megami Tensei]] series, he's still considered the hardest boss in Nocturne.
** Kagutsuchi can be this. If you Buff and Debuff to maximum, he's mostly a joke, especially compared to the rather brutal battle that precedes him.
** {{spoiler|Sakahagi}}. Sure, you fight him right after taking down Girimekhala (the first boss to reflect physical attacks) and given no chance to heal, but he only knows second-tier elemental spells and can be easily taken out in one turn by this point in the game.
*** What makes that battle an even bigger joke is that you keep all the buffs you have against the preceding demon and {{spoiler|Sakahagi}} doesn't have a lot of MP. Use Mana or Life Drain on him and he becomes even more worthless. Also doubles as [[Too Dumb to Live]] [[We Will Meet Again|considering the guy could have just run away and make his schemes another day]].
* [[Apocalypse How]]: Class X at the beginning with the Conception. Class Z at the end of the True Demon Ending.
* [[Artifact of Doom]]: The Magatama, the Deathstones, Amala technology...
