Line 24:
* [[God Mode Sue]]: Cassius is OP, both as an NPC and when he is playable. When he appears, you can very much assume that the heroes' behinds have been saved from whatever impending doom might befall them, no exception.
* [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel]]: Man, by the end of the main plot a ''lot'' of characters have generous helpings of this in their backstories. The younger Ouroboros members {{spoiler|like Joshua and Renne}} have it ''particularly'' bad. {{spoiler|And then there's what Weissman does during the game, and what ends up ''happening'' to him}}... Needless to say, despite being ultimately optimistic, this game gets ''really, really '''dark''''' at times.
* [[It Was His Sled]]: {{spoiler|The fact that Renne's a villain, at least for a while, is actually kind of hard to avoid now that ''SC'''s been out for half a decade in Japan. ''Alternative Saga'' practically references it wholesale, never mind all the videos and whatnot spread all over the Internet}}.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Cassius. A rare case where such a character is on the protagonist's side. {{spoiler|Mostly}}.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: Among the Japanese fanbase - <s> DRAGON</s> [[Lolicon]] DIVE!!!
* [[Moe]]: Tita. Just ask [[I'm Taking Her Home with Me|Estelle]].
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Weissman crosses this when he reveals that {{spoiler|not only did he [[Brainwashed and Crazy|mind control Joshua and turn him into a puppet]], but also indirectly cause the attack on Joshua's village that led to Joshua's sister's death and made Joshua and Loewe's lives a living hell}}.
* [[One True Threesome]]: It's not unheard of for some fans to ship the [[Official Couple]] of Estelle and Joshua with Kloe, since she already had a crush on Joshua to begin with and develops a close friendship with Estelle.
Line 32 ⟶ 34:
** As sequels popped out, they add these ships in their list: Zane/Kirika, {{spoiler|Loewe/Karin}}, {{spoiler|Lechter}}/Kloe and Kevin/Ries.
** Those who ships [[Ho Yay|Olivier/Mueller]] pairs [[Les Yay|Schera with Aina or Lucciola and Julia with Kloe]].
* [[That One Boss]]:
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Mother of ''God''. You have no soul if some of these scenes don't elicit ''at least'' [[Manly Tears]] from you.
* [[That One Boss]]:* Loewe in ''SC'', {{spoiler|Cassius and the Black Knight}} in ''TC''. Loewe takes the cake though, he is so hard, the game actually let you choose to proceed the game without defeating him!
** {{spoiler|Renne}} also tends to make people pull their hair out in ''SC'', {{spoiler|1=particularly the last fight with her when she's accompanied by Pater Mater. It's bad enough that she can use her reaper-esque S-Crafts to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg0KvcpNi78 one shot your entire party] if you're positioned badly. When she's accompanied by a mountain of steel and HP that can punt you across the arena and ''revive her'' when she's knocked out? The suffering never ends.}}.
** {{spoiler|Grimoire!Kevin and his cannons}} from ''The Third3rd''. For starters, {{spoiler|he likes to spam Grail Sphere EVERY TURN. And the cannons... OHMAIGAWD THE CANNONS. Unless you bring Kloe for her +50% Def S-Craft bonus, you won't survive against their 3-hit cannonballs}}.
** The spider boss in Chapter 5 of ''The Third3rd'' might qualify too. {{spoiler|Let's say that [[Mama Bear|you hurt its children too much]].}}.
* [[That One Sidequest]]:
* [[Too Cool to Live]]: {{spoiler|[[Master Swordsman|Master]] [[That One Boss|Swordsman]] with a [[Bling Bling Bang|Golden]] [[Cool Sword|Sword]]? Rides on a [[Humongous Mecha|black metal dragon]]? [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|Silver-haired]] [[Purple Eyes|purple-eyed]] [[Aloof Big Brother]] for the male lead? Has the most awesome [[Leitmotif]]? Voiced by [[Hikaru Midorikawa]], named [[Awesome McCoolname|Leonhardt]] and known as [[Red Baron|The]] [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Sword Emperor]]? Admit it, it was the only way for the Sora no Kiseki world to not to be frozen by Loewe's epic coolness.}}
** Some of the doors in ''The 3rd'' will involve flashback battles, where you're stuck with limited arts, items and equipment. In some cases, you don't even get to use arts.
** {{spoiler|Although his subsequent appearence in 3rd and his [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|apparent]] [[Back from the Dead|resurrection]] in Alternative Saga suggest that Falcom might consider him Too Cool To Die.}}
** Star Door 6 ("Training - Agate-style") stands out in particular, as you're using three [[Joke Character|Joke Characters]] with weak stats, no Arts and a heavy reliance on CP, have very limited healing items and have to take on a ''full dungeon'' rather than a single fight.
** The fishing minigame door is dreaded by many for the difficult timing mechanics and the AI opponent's luck in getting larger fish.
* [[Too Cool to Live]]: {{spoiler|[[Master Swordsman|Master]] [[That One Boss|Swordsman]] with a [[Bling Bling Bang|Golden]] [[Cool Sword|Sword]]? Rides on a [[Humongous Mecha|black metal dragon]]? [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|Silver-haired]] [[Purple Eyes|purple-eyed]] [[Aloof Big Brother]] for the male lead? Has the most awesome [[Leitmotif]]? Voiced by [[Hikaru Midorikawa]], named [[Awesome McCoolname|Leonhardt]] and known as [[Red Baron|The]] [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Sword Emperor]]? Admit it, it was the only way for the ''Sora no Kiseki'' world to not to be frozen by Loewe's epic coolness.}}.
** {{spoiler|Although his subsequent appearence in ''The 3rd'' and his [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|apparent]] [[Back from the Dead|resurrection]] in ''Alternative Saga'' suggest that Falcom might consider him Too Cool To Die.}}.
* [[Toy Ship]]: Harry and Mina in Bose city. Somewhat hard to notice as they're non-essential NPCs that the player has to talk to on their own initiative.
* [[The Untwist]]: The [[Black Knight]]'s identity is so obvious, [[Lampshade Hanging|even the characters weren't surprised when they saw his true face]], and in case you haven't figured it out , {{spoiler|it's Loewe.}}.
* [[The Woobie]]: Joshua, Loewe, Kevin, and Renne.
* [[The Untwist]]: The [[Black Knight]]'s identity is so obvious, [[Lampshade Hanging|even the characters weren't surprised when they saw his true face]], and in case you haven't figured it out {{spoiler|it's Loewe.}}
