* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Dh3CQFoEh4 The Boss fight themes]]. Furthermore, the music that Elena sings to is ''Liebestraum'' by Franz Liszt.
* FanNickname: Creator/DavidCronenberg’s ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'', thanks to being an action-adventure game where you play as a blonde-haired man traversing several dungeons for the sake of helping the princess he loves. Oh, and the horror of said princess slowly turning into a monster and needing to devour flesh in order to keep the transformation at bay.
* {{Moe}}: Elena, at least when she's in human form.
* NauseaFuel:
** In order to not turn into a monster, Elena has to eat chunks of meat hacked from the monsters in the Towers. Unfortunately, she has to eat it raw, and the flesh does not look appetizing at all: they're purple lumps with cyst-like bits inside.
** The NonstandardGameOver doesn't show [[spoiler: Elena's]] monstrous form... but does show [[spoiler: her]] slimy purple blood smeared all over the room.
* PlayerPunch: [[spoiler:Slaying Elena in the D ending is heartbreaking.]]
* ScrappyMechanic: Unless a fur lining is equipped to reduce the probability of having an item broken, the items ''will'' break if the character is hit by strong attacks, and repairing them costs money.
* ToughActToFollow: Compared to its fellow Operation Rainfall games ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'' and ''VideoGame/TheLastStory''. ''Xenoblade Chronicles'' is from Creator/MonolithSoft, the same minds behind cult classic ''VideoGame/{{Xenogears}}'' and the acclaimed ''VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}}'' trilogy. The box art for ''The Last Story'' proudly declares that it was directed by ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' creator Hironobu Sakaguchi and composed by Music/NobuoUematsu. Meanwhile, ''Pandora's Tower'' was created by some developer that until that point made nothing but action games based on Magazine/ShonenJump properties (and which returned to doing so afterwards). While not a bad game by any means, with many critics enjoying its story and gameplay, it came out so late after the other two (its North American release being months after the launch of the UsefulNotes/WiiU) and lacked their similar pedigrees that it ultimately became the most forgotten of the trio, despite even seeing a Wii U re-release when ''The Last Story'' didn't.
