* In Chapter 16, in the spinning floor room with the Aether Ring, Pit says "Floor ice cream gives you health!" You'd think he meant "Floor ice cream is good for your health"...until you realize that [[PowerUps eating food off the floor]] literally ''does'' "give you [[HitPoints health]]"!

* Many of the names of the Zodiac items just seem random, but a lot of them make a lot of sense if you think about it. Like the Gemini Orbitars - Gemini is The Twins, of course they'll have two weapons. Also, the Sagittarius Bow - Sagittarius is The Archer.

** A better horror is [[spoiler: [[BodyHorror the concept of being stuck in a ring.]] [[AndIMustScream You can't move at all. You can't communicate with the outside world. You can scream and shout for help but no one is going to hear you. Your life depends on if someone will pick up the ring and wear it around their finger.]] Now what would have happened if the ring got destroyed? [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel The concept of Pit dying as a ring becomes something else entirely.]]]]

Added DiffLines:

**** The problem with this statement is [[spoiler: Pit confirms that Palutena is the one that revives him whenever he's finished in battle. However, the Chaos Kin is controlling Palutena. That means that Chaos Kin would give Pit a permanent death. If the ring was destroyed during that time period, that would imply that Pit would stay dead.]]


Added DiffLines:

**** Except, [[spoiler: if he was asleep, then he wouldn't be aware of the state he was in. Pit wasn't aware that he was in the ring for three years while Pittoo implies that he was conscious the entire time, but wasn't himself. It was so bad that Pittoo realized that he couldn't live without Pit.]]

Added DiffLines:

*** As an angel he can still be revived after death, and if he is it doesn't have to be as a ring, does it?


Added DiffLines:

*** He stated he was unconscious, or didn't exist. It's likely that whatever he experienced was similar to being asleep, like Pit was for those three years.

Except the Aurum still exist, still more powerful than ever thanks to Phyrron's assimilation. Wherever the Aurum may end up, they'll just go back to tearing worlds apart to make themselves grow. The Aurum weren't defeated. They were merely fended off.

* It's no secret that practically everyone in Kid Icarus Uprising [[BreakingtheFourthWall breaks the fourth wall]] every once in a while. Except not. Look back on the dialogue, and you'll notice that [[TokenHuman Magnus]] never breaks the fourth wall once in any of his segments. That means the only people that break the fourth wall are the gods or anyone associated closely with the gods. In a sense, it makes sense. Gods are, in theory, omniscient, so they would know they're part of another medium if that was the case.

* Another one concerning [[spoiler: the ring of chaos.]] So while Pit [[spoiler: was stuck in the ring, that meant his body was a lifeless zombie. Magnus said that Pit and Palutena became the enemy of humanity. All we see is Pit's body attacking something as a dog before flying off. If Pit's body was like that for three years and Magnus implied that Pit is literally Palutena's puppet, then how many people has Pit's body killed? How much blood was stained on the innocent angel's body for the past three years to the point that Magnus and Gaol were forced to hunt Pit down and kill him?]]

Palutena even pictures Pit talking about wanting to fly...yet his wings are burned up as a result of the heroic deed.]] What makes this Fridge though is the fact that [[spoiler: Viridi warned Pit not to save Dark Pit because his wings would burn up. Pit doesn't listen to her and goes through with his rescue attempt at the cost of burning his wings. The game put an actual reference to Icarus by throwing Pit in this situation.]]
