** Shazar (Gallus) and many more bonus bosses from ''Jet-Black Mage'' were integrated in the ''White Witch'' main story and considerably nerfed.
* BonusDungeon: Moya Island in ''Jet-Black Mage'' had a 100-floor tower accessed with ItemCrafting of all things, with all-new more powerful enemies and PaletteSwap of bosses that will mop the floor with your Lv.99 party if you aren't careful enough. Shazar (Gallus in the English version) is awaiting you at the last floor, and he is on-par with BonusBoss from the ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'' series, a welcome change from the easy main quest. There is another pirate BonusDungeon hidden in a star-shaped island.
** It was replaced in ''White Witch'' with a portal to the FinalDungeon, but its monsters were reused at various points, like many other BonusBoss from ''Jet-Black Mage''. Gallus himself was reused as TheDragon for the [[FinalBoss White Witch]], but was considerably Nerfed (he no longer has two phases): another BonusBoss (who can be faced after clearing all other boss rematches) replaced him as the ultimate challenge.

Oliver can't stop his drop, as Tengri is too heavy for his own Cloud Sweeper. But by using the in-built grappling hook, he changes their trajectory, so they land in the sea instead]].

Without it, you can't proceed normally, and if you try to use Oliver's book, it says that you need to see the physical book instead.

There are two frames: the upper one shows the pre-rendered form, and the lower one shows the real time form. They are practically the same. In other words, you will be ''walking through a Ghibli movie.'' Not that ''Jet-Black Mage'' is any slouch--the DS does cell-shading well, and it features the same sort of hand-painted look for its maps.
