*** While siding with Lucifer means chaos and siding with YHHV means order in the original SMT, this isn't true for Nocturne. Basically, choosing any reason is playing into the hands of the Great Will who seeks to erode free will through repeated apocalypses and creations. The angels favor Yosuga since it is the idea that will lead to the next cycle in the shortest span of time. Basically, the world of the mainline games is deeply wrong and in the center of this corruption, there is YHHV, twisting both Order and Chaos. The general idea of order is compassion for the weak, sick and poor. Ronaldos consequence is an egalitarian world. YHHV's consequence is eradicating free will. The general idea of Chaos is that everyone should have the opportunity and the incentive to achieve greatness. To Yamato, this means a society where everyone is weighted purely based on their merits. For Lucifer, this is dominance of the strong and violent.

** Even from a purely political perspective, Yamatos views are consistent. Let's say a leader rises to power through merit. According to Yamato, the problem is that this leader no longer has a reason to achieve excellence as they already have power and have no danger of losing it. This view is consistent with his behavior because he constantly pushes himself to be a better leader and takes responsibility for failure on himself instead of blaming subordinates. What he truly despises is complacency.

* For the [[UpdatedRerelease Triangulum Arc]], why do the characters ''revert'' to their old outfits? Given that there clearly are scenes showing the character sprites in the new attire ''and'' having portraits of the characters in the new attire - like Airi and Hina in their white and black clothes, respectively - why do they go back to the old outfits? Even [[spoiler:Yamato]], whose biggest design change is taking the coat off, goes back to putting it back on, despite the presence of sprites and portrait. Why did they go the obviously extra mile to expand on the sprites in new clothes, when they'll just revert to the old ones?

* Why do the characters go through all the trouble to recruit Rama to take down Alioth? All they really need is for Shiva to hit it, and Shiva says he's willing to do them a favor to repay them for Hinako's dance. Couldn't they have just saved time and asked Shiva to Pasupata Alioth directly?

* Why wasn't this game banned in America? After all, it does give you the option to turn the world communist. Not saying it'd be right that it be banned, but it does sound like a reason to ban it from America.
** Because it's a spin-off of a series that is known for allowing you to summon/control demons and [[VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiII kill God]]. If that didn't get the series banned, communism wouldn't either.

* The plan to knock Alioth out of the sky. When you summon Shiva, he promises to give you a boon in return for watching Hinako's dancing. So why do you need to trick him into throwing his spear at [[ButtMonkey Kama]] just to hit Alioth? Why not just ask him "Can you please knock that huge weird-looking thing out of the sky with your spear?" It feels like Kama's just included so [[ComedicSociopathy we can have some cheap laughs at his expense]]. [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Not that it isn't hilarious]], but still.
