* HonestJohnsDealership: Amelia Watson offers to let you try out random snacks or accessories for a fight, and then insists that you buy the merch she's selling from the back of her van. Many of these items are ERROR quality, which give great benefits in exchange for a guaranteed downside.

** Anya -- specifically in Kris form -- will attach herself to your character periodically swing out at your opponent in Virtual Frontiers mode. This makes her useful for dealing extra damage and catching your opponents off guard.

** In another ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' reference, one of Sora's moves is the A-egis Reflector, which is named after Urien's Aegis Reflector Super Art. However, it's only useful for reflecting projectiles and counterpoking, but no extra combo or unblockable properties. Also, Kiara's HINOTORI Off-Collab is basically the Aegis Reflector. However, Kiara's version has no extra features, and she follows you around instead of staying stationary.
** Sora's zoning play style is a combination of parts of I-No and Venom's move sets in the older ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' games. Also, her VFX Calibur is visually reminiscent of Love Heart's sword attacks from ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFightersXIV.''

** Risu's Non-stop Nuts Off-Collab is a reference to Oro's Tengu Stone Super Art from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII.'' The only differences are that the nuts have to reappear after they've been used, and there's no EX version.
** Roboco's Hi-Spec Missiles Off-Collab is a reference to Doctor Doom's Hidden Missiles from ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3.'' Roboco's version can't be spammed, and doesn't have as many hits.

* AllOrNothing: The DR. OOPSIE earned in one event space grants a massive damage buff, but deals ten thousand damage to the user once its duration of ten seconds ends.



* ButThouMust: Getting the event of Nene asking to be her husband offers four options to choose from. The first three agreeing to marry once, twice and thrice, and the fourth refusing her offer. You're only allowed to pick the marriage options, as refusing results in it looping back to the same options until one of the three is chosen.



* JokeItem: Among the items in Virtual Frontiers is Vesper's own [[CompanionCube Plastic Ball]]. Its description notes that it does nothing, whereas at least the other TEMPUS items state that they're useful for various playstyles.

If it goes lower than 70%, the announcer will start saying that you can't do that, this is their only job, etc. Not only does this work for both announcers, but they have different lines as well. This also doubles as a ShoutOut to ''[[VideoGame/SegaSuperstars Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed]]'', which featured the same easter egg.
