Line 8:
** "Hoshi no Arika" or "The Whereabouts of the Stars", ranked first on several "Best Game Theme Song Ever" lists in Japan. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyTwnoOkvoE Give it a gander].
* [[Complacent Gaming Syndrome]]: In ''The 3rd'', it's easy to end up sticking to the same party members for most of the game, especially those listed in [[Game Breaker|Game-Breaker]], at least until the final dungeon makes the player use all of them.
* [[Complete Monster]]: {{spoiler|George Weissman, the [[Big Bad]] of both ''FC'' and ''SC'', starts off as a seemingly kind and helpful archaeologist named Professor Alba. This falls away at the end of ''FC'', when he reveals himself as an evil wizard who was manipulating Joshua and the other protagonists even before the game started. A high-ranking member of the secret organization of Ouroboros, Weissmann has the desire to remake the world damaged by the cruelty of humans in his own image. He was behind the massacre of the village of Hamel, which claims the life of Joshua's sister and Loewe's lover Karin. This in turn sparked the Hundred Days War, which affected the life of the main protagonist Estelle and created the events of the game. Weissmann then had Joshua brainwashed to become a ruthless, cold-blooded assassin, who slaughtered countless politicians and other influential people who were in Weissmann's way. After failing to assassinate Estelle's father Cassius, Weissmann attempted to have Joshua himself assassinated for his failure. At the end of ''FC'', Weissmann restores Joshua's lost memories and gleefully observes as he goes through an emotional trauma. Towards the end of ''SC'', Weissmann pursues the ancient city of Liberl Ark in the hopes of obtaining the ancient artifact Aureole and merge himself with it. Manipulating Joshua's mind once again, Weissmann attempts to have him execute Estelle so that he can free him from his mind spell and enjoy seeing him break emotionally. Despite considering himself as the savior of all mankind, Weissmann is completely blinded by his own sadism and hypocrisy, even to the point where he doesn't even realize that most of the events caused by the humanity are the cause of his own actions}}.
* [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]: {{spoiler|Loewe vs Joshua}}. Multiple people have called the fight, without irony, even more epic than the entire climax sequence of ''[[Advent Children]]''. Made even more impressive by the fact that it's all done ''WITH SPRITES'', and it ''still'' manages to be completely awesome.
** {{spoiler|Villains may they be, you've gotta admit the scene when the Legions storm the Grancell Castle is completely awesome; it's four [[Badass|Badasses]] versus one [[Badass Army]] and our dear villains proves to be the more badass force.}}
