* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler: The first optional character (out of Nel, Albel, and Roger) who helps Fayt and the others against the Vendeeni at the Kirsla Training Facility will be struck by Biwig's laser gun, resulting in them seemingly dying. The advanced medical technology on the Diplo heals them up right after, however.]]

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Nel and Albel during the quest to gain Crosell's help against the Vendeeni, due to coming from warring nations at conflict and Albel previously torturing Nel's comrades, Tynave and Farleen. Fayt can also act this way with Albel, depending on the dialogue choices picked.

* BadassAdorable: [[spoiler: [[VideoGame/ValkyrieProfile Lenneth]]]] appears as a little girl who can barely hold her gigantic spear. Doesn't stop her from being one of the game's most difficult [[BonusBonus bonus bosses]].

* YourMagicsNoGoodHere: [[DefiedTrope Defied]]. It's state that the party ''should'' have been BroughtDownToNormal when they crossed over to [=4D=] Space, but Fayt's Symbol of Destruction is projecting a bubble around him that allows the party to act under their native universe's laws. [[LostInTranslation This explanation is badly muddled in the English script]].

** When on a mission to save [[spoiler:Ameena, Sophia's sickly flower girl lookalike]], the party encounters a Mud monster which randomly appears out of a pond,isnt alluded to prior and is not mentioned again after its defeat

* LostInTranslation: The English script is vague about what Fayt's power actually does, unlike Maria and Sophia's more explicit roles. Even the dictionary entry for the Symbol of Destruction only gives a zero-context explanation of its RealityWarper capabilities. In the original Japanese it is more explicitly explained that Fayt is projecting a bubble around himself that allows the party to continue using their Symbology and Killer Moves instead of being BroughtDownToNormal.

* AMythologyIsTrue: [[spoiler: Elicoorians, out of everyone in the universe, were the only ones remotely accurate in their religion. While names present in other religions are apparently taken from various Sphere employees, the Elicoorian gods were named for the programmers themselves. [[AllThereInTheManual Being able to see the Eternal Sphere's coding]] may explain that one.]]

** [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]]. In the world of the gods, it is considered chimeric to do anything outside your established talents, except visiting the mortal realm. Being an odd-job god is ''not'' fun or fulfilling. The reason gods so often play around with mortals is because that's just how bored they are. In this universe, the Buddha's point that the gods should be pitied is ''very'' much on the mark.

* ZettaiRyouiki: Nel and Sophia. Albel may count as an odd male variant, as he wears a sarong with thigh-high stockings.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Fayt Leingod. Imagine people calling him that with a straight face when he was just an ordinary college student.

* CampGay: Belzeber. The fact that he [[WhipItGood uses a whip]] as a weapon doesn't really seem to help things.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Fayt Leingod. Imagine people calling him that with a straight face when he was just an ordinary college student. This is even moreso in the Japanese version, where his name is actually spelled Fate Linegod.

* BadassGrandpa: Adray. Technically, he's a dad, but he sure looks more like a grandpa; plus, if his interactions with his daughter are any indication, he's [[IWantGrandKids trying to become one]].

* ActionGirl: Maria Traydor, Nel Zelpher, Peppita Rossetti, and Mirage Koas.

* JerkassFacade: Albel is arguably putting up one of these, due to a FreudianExcuse.

%% * ApocalypseWow: Executioners versus [[spoiler: the Earth's defense grid.]]

* ApocalypseWow: Executioners versus [[spoiler: the Earth's defense grid.]]
* AnAxeToGrind: Roger.
* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Earning battle trophies unlocks new costumes and color schemes for your characters, music, higher difficulty levels, and other simple little rewards.

* AIIsACrapshoot: In a truly bizarre inversion, [[spoiler: you and your entire party. You and the entire universe are just [[InstantAIJustAddWater data]] from the perspective of the Fourth Dimensional beings that created you.]]

** It's subtly implied that Nel and Clair [[HomoEroticSubtext may be]] [[LesYay an item]], such as when she returns from the Kirlsa Facility, after rescuing Tynave and Farleen. They share an embrace ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULB-xTWUnwI seen at 4:00-4:20]]). The manga version of the scene is more pronounced, by having Clair blush [[HeldGaze as they stare into]] [[http://mangapark.me/manga/star-ocean-till-the-end-of-time/s1/v4/c14/7 each other's eyes.]]

* MrFanservice: Cliff, Fayt, and Albel.

* IllGirl: Ameena.
* InaneBlabbering
* IneffectualLoner: Albel.

* MsExposition: Nel acts as this for most of the time spent on Elicoor II, being the token Aquarian native in the party, she explains various things about Aquaria to Fayt and Cliff. [[JustifiedTrope Justified] ], since she is told that they are engineers from Greeton, so there is an explanation why they wouldn't know

* MsExposition: Nel acts as this for most of the time spent on Elicoor II

** In the Bequerel mines, the party is attacked by a giant chicken which can turn people to stone with its bite. It's not alluded to prior, unlike the Brass Dragons that you find as regular enemies within (and they were alluded to in the database as moving in recently).
