* Many moments from the first game become borderline illogical when you think about it. Wouldn't putting a car in the way of the truck have caused severe injuries? Was Sonia contractually obligated to give that concert, or not? (If she was, she could have been sued for damages. If not, she could have sued her manager. This may be a case of No Such Thing As Lawyers...) Why didn't the principal just make Mr. Shepar a Social Studies teacher? (Or barring that, that one teacher who teaches that nebulous class known as "Health", or even just Homeroom?)
** They justify the bit about the car when Geo wonders if everyone's okay. [[spoiler: Turns out they all got sucked into the computer system of the truck.]]
*** That aside, the car's supposed to have some safety features built in, and it only goes as fast as Geo can run (around 9 mph).
** Also, the problem with Mr. Shepar's class (he does indeed teach homeroom - it's just all day with his one class) is that he's the one teacher at school who doesn't use the [[MassHypnosis Study]] [[MindRape Wave]] as per the principal's desire; the principal gets fed up and blackmails him into needing to find a job to sustain himself and 7 kids.
* Regarding the anime, can someone please explain how Battle Cards were originally supposed to be used? All that's seen is Geo swiping a few sword cards and some viruses getting sliced, but how did other cards come to be and how the heck are other people supposed to use them?
** It's supposed to be played as a trading card game. At Big Wave store they even have a table to play it. As strange it may seem, it is a trading card game based on viruses!
** Some early statements in the first game suggest that when the viruses started showing up, Battle Cards were developed and released to the public, likely to be used by Navis as Battle Chips had been. Since most people have Transers and at least one Navi, this makes sense. That aside, perhaps NetBattling and Battle Chips simply went underground after a while? 200 years is a long time...
* All the characters in ''Star Force 2's'' BonusDungeon all behave as though Mega Man carries the [=OOPArt=], even though it was ripped from his body and fell into the sea during the events of the main game itself.

*** NM: There's also the fact that Sonia/Harp Note was the Starforce character kidnapped by ClockMan.EXE alongside Roll.EXE in Operate Shooting Star. If she weren't the Roll Expy of Starforce then that wouldn't have been the case. Luna's the only other LoveInterest option, but she's more like Yai than Roll.

Roll and just doesn't have the same chemistry with Geo nor narrative pathos for such a situation that Sonia/Harp Note does and would have. Speaking without shipping goggles on that front.

*** You absolutely need to have a look at the DS's specs and standards again. Star Force utilizes some higher-level spriting without rocking the boat so much. Reminds me of complaining about 2D games in the PlayStation era for "looking like a SNES game" when they almost always looked so much better.

*** Despite having the same overall look, role (heh), and even sharing the same traits of love and music, she is somehow not at all a successor to Roll.EXE? Yeah, she's partially a rival like Protoman as well, but she was clearly set up as something much more interesting. She also does Roll some justice as she gets involved with events (and with Geo) more often, particularly in the anime.

** It's not as simple as "only moving left or right". The shield and the lock-on attacks were created to fill that gap. It was meant to be a change from numerous games of the same thing, and overall it's a worthwhile change.

*** Additionally, Star Force strongly distances itself from the Battle Network games in tone and in gameplay, while clearly being made by the same people as a follow-up project. The anime distances itself even further, both in tone and in aesthetic. To suggest that Star Force is merely a rehash is to ignore... basically all of Star Force.
