3A prequel of sorts to ''VideoGame/ShiningHearts'', with Rick, Amil, Airy and Nereis from that game making appearances. It diverges from the format of previous Shining games in that the Concerto combat system is a development of the combat system in VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles.

5!Tropes found in Shining Hearts include:

7* EquippableAlly:
8** Yukihime, Rage's TalkingWeapon, is actually a Spirit, is female, pretty, and can manifest a human form, in addition to her usual mode as a sword.
9** The Shining Hearts heroines are Soulblades, which are essentially human souls that can manifest as weapons (with a certain amount of effort). Amil, Airy and Nereis transform into different weapon options for Rick to use.
10* {{Expy}}: Fenrir, one of the characters, is pretty much [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger Doggie Kruiser]] without his badge and D-Sword Vega.
11* KatanasAreJustBetter: Yukihime is a katana. Sakuya, Rage & Rick's teacher, also uses a katana as her weapon.
12* MysticalWhiteHair: Altina, the elf princess who finds Rage all washed up on a beach.
