** Zappa’s meeting his alternate self is also worth noting. There’s no confusion, no astonishment, just a simple and immediate “finally, another blacksmith with skills comparable to my own!”

Added DiffLines:

* The fact that the UpdatedReRelease shows Lynx flashing a shit-eating grin in the group shot. You'd forget he's a bad guy (unless we're meant to believe it's Serge in Lynx's body while Serge still shows up in the same group photo).

* The creators made an eventual joke. Grobyc's name in Russian: "Grobys" is soft, diminutive, sarcastic version of the word "coffin". Wonder why ({{Determinator}}, MadeOfIron)
** [[DontExplainTheJoke Or more likely it's Cyborg spelled backwards.]]



* If you choose to save Kid when she is poisoned, and reach the part where Korcha proposes to Kid (already a CMOF in itself), Serge can choose to encourage or discourage Kid to accept. No matter the choice, Kid will kick Serge in the groin.
* The fact that the dwarves have an attack called "Hi-Ho Chorus" is absolutely hilarious. You are almost guaranteed to be laughing when it first goes off, even as it knocks your party flat on its ass.



* The [[ButtMonkey new dishwasher]] in Viper Manor who's constantly being yelled at by Orcha or getting trapped in Luccia's cages? Yeah, that's Norris. He even laments that he should've chosen an [[TheMole easier job and disguise]] for his top-secret investigation.
* A few of the endings you get in a New Game Plus:
** Beat the final boss with Poshul at the start of the game, and ''Kid'' takes over the world, establishing the Acacian Empire.
** Beat the final boss after completing Dario's sidequest and Serge is reborn. Dark Serge/Lynx, Harle, and Kid go to Termina's bar for a long drinking session... Which is run by Luccia, Karsh, and Marcy. Much hilarity ensues, one of which being Dark Serge bitching on how he hijacked a body that isn't of legal drinking age, and Harle ordering heavily-sugared coffee. When they get the bill, [[ShockinglyExpensiveBill they're dumbfounded at how much it costs]], and are promptly introduced to the complaints department... Zoah.
** Beat the game after Viper Manor and choosing not to save Kid results in a terribly harsh but hilarious bit where Serge is now working at Lisa's Element shop and she and Leena proceed to have a catty exchange of cruel insults, she and Kid have a shorter one, and then Korcha tries to romance Kid again only for her to sneak out behind his back and be replaced by ''his mother''. Then [[ThoseTwoGuys Solt and Peppor]] assault Fort Dragonia...with Pierre whom they've hired based on his false hero cred. He pleads sickness from eating too much at Zappa's, asking them "not to run", then when they get to the top of the fort fakes sickness again (the same way he did when trying to break in Viper Manor's gates) so as to get out of being the one to open the doors. (When the Shaker brothers say they'll try "Rock Paper Scissors" again he immediately leaps up just fine...) After this the screen goes black with the message "[[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing The three of them were never seen again."]]

** Even comparing the alternate lives of [=NPCs=] can provide some laughs. In Guldove there is a leonine demihuman working at the docks. One version of him is too worn out to work and has to sit down, causing the other (human) workers to mock him for being lazy. The other version? Doing the work of several of the dock crew without breaking a sweat, while it's one of the ''humans'' sitting down wearily while gasping in disbelief, "How does he ''do'' it?!"

* Any time you meet Harle or she's in your party, though both her first meeting with Kid in Viper Manor and their second one at Hermit's Hideaway (if you save Kid) are especially hilarious. Especially since Harle is essentially [[CloningBlues the Dragon Gods' copy of Schala]], meaning she's bitch-slapping and fighting with herself over Serge.

* The Sage of Marbule is a literal janitor on Home World's S.S. Zelbess, but while he's a [[AlmightyJanitor excellent kind of janitor]] that can kick your ass if you use any offensive non-trap elements on him, you can, in fact, GAIN his high-powered elements for your '''own use''' via Trap elements. The kicker here? You can run away as much as you want so that you prep up various Trap elements for you to use to gain the Sage's high-powered elements without fear of him annihilating you so long as you prepare the right trap elements. Otherwise, as long as you don't use any offensive elements on him excluding proper trap elements, he turns into a [[BreatherBoss rather easy boss]] and a very rewarding one as well due to the aforementioned method of farming highly-potent elements from him via the trap methods.
