''Franchise/{{Disgaea}} 5: Alliance of Vengeance'' is the sixth game in the wacky TurnBasedStrategy series ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'', the work of Creator/NipponIchi. It is Nippon Ichi's first game for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4.
A powerful and evil Overlord named Void Dark is conquering Netherworlds with The Lost, his army of over one million. A group of Overlords from conquered Netherworlds have decided that enough is enough, and rise against Void Dark to take vengeance. The story revolves around Killia, a young demon that seeks revenge against Void Dark. Joining him on his path of vengeance is Seraphina, the Princess Overlord of Gorgeous who [[RebelliousPrincess ran away from home]] to avoid an ArrangedMarriage. The protagonists must travel to different Netherworlds to recruit Overlords and build an army against Void Dark.
This games features numerous new features not seen in previous Disgaea games. Resistance and affiliation statistics for units on the battlefield can be seen when units are highlighted. There is also a revenge system that activates when party members are defeated. Several new units are introduced in Disgaea 5: the Dark Knight, Maid, Pirate, Sage, Wrestler, Fairy, Nine-Tailed, Chimera, Imp, Grizzly, Rabbit Fighter, Two-Headed Dragon and Cavalier.
-----
!!This game provides examples of:
* ArrangedMarriage: Seraphina's father has arranged a marriage of convenience between his daughter and Void Dark. Seraphina is not very happy about this.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures
** The Cheat Shop from VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2 returns, allowing players to tweak HL or EXP drops to their liking.
** Also from VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2, if a bill fails, players have the option of spending HL to force it to pass.
** Characters can have sub-classes, making it much easier to get Evilities from other classes.
** Characters can equip sub-weapons, letting them quickly switch between multiple skill-sets in battle.
** The item bag is much larger than other games, and there are no limits to what you can take into item worlds.
*** Added to that, The Innocent System has been revised, and now allows you to remove an innocent from an item WITHOUT subduing them, the originally time consuming task now relegated to purely when you fuse Innocents.
** Recruiting new units costs HL instead of Mana, and by spending extra HL you can start them at a higher level. (Reincarnation still costs Mana, however)
** Dying in a normal battle gives you the option to either retry the battle from the beginning, return to your base, or return to the title screen.
** In previous games, Big Bang was often the only generic non-magic skill with a 3x3 AreaOfEffect and could only be used with a fist (Though swords would occasionally gain such a skill). This meant that for grinding Ordeal stages (Which almost always place enemies in a 3x3 pattern), unless the character had magic or a unique 3x3 skill, the character had to change their weapon to a fist, even if he or she is not proficient with them. This game bucks that trend by giving each weapon type a 3x3 AreaOfEffect skill, allowing characters to grind while still holding onto their WeaponOfChoice.
** The Paint Shop is now combined with the Assembly, and has an unlockable option to modify the colours individually.
** The Character Unlock Assembly bills have been completely replaced with Quests, which range from ranking up a particular class to the obligatory fetch quest.
** In previous Disgaea games, getting the alternate endings can be a huge hassle as they force a NewGamePlus afterwards. Here, you just go back to the base after an alternate ending plays.
** Most DLC in previous games are inaccessible until the Post Game. Here, you can obtain the DLC characters at any time, and they just scale with your story progress so you can easily obtain them whenever you want.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Red Magnus' [[LimitBreak Overload]] causes him to grow giant-sized, drastically increasing his stats for a few turns.
** Other characters can experience a lesser version of this if they're part of the "Giant Slayer" squad, which makes them giant-sized for the first few turns in a battle.
* BashBrothers: Kilia and Zeroken become this; the latter even begins calling our hero "bro" to emphasize their connection. [[spoiler:In the post game, ''Void'' also joins in, but Zero is understandably more hesitant about giving him the nickname.]]
* BattleRoyale: At one point, Void Dark's sanctuary is invaded by about a dozen sibling overlords who try to topple him. After effortlessly killing their leader, he decides one, and only one of them, can become one of his Demon Generals... if they kill all of their brothers. [[spoiler:This gets a CallBack in later on, when the party is confronted by the winner.]]
* BeamOWar: When Bloodis uses [[spoiler:Macrocosm]] the second time, Killia counters back with the same attack, leading to this. [[spoiler:Because Macrocosm's true strength lies in the combined strength of the user and allies' hearts, it is Killia who wins the BeamOWar.]]
* BigEater: Killia eats a lot because he needs to maintain a high calorie intake. [[spoiler: It's because he needs the extra energy to suppress the doubt in his heart.]]
* BlindIdiotTranslation: Some of the Evilities are, at best, INCREDIBLY poorly worded. "Flying Bullets" gives the equipped character limitless attack range when equipped with a gun. Does this mean the character can attack from clear across the map? No, you've still got the same range as before, it just allows you to attack diagonally, which you can't normally do with guns. "Hold the Line" prevents enemies from entering within 2 panels while the user is using the Defend command. Surely this means that if they're defending they can't be targeted by close range attackers? No, it just means that enemies can't go around them. They can still go right next to them and attack directly.
* BonusBoss: Baal, of course, though he was added in a patch. Also [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject Proto Darkdeath]] in the Item World]], and Overlord Priere in the DLC.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Killia and Liezerota.
* BrickJoke: The "On the Next" segments are too ridiculous to be true... most of the time.
** One of the "On the Next" segments claims that Void Dark is merely the first member of a group called the "Elite Four". [[spoiler: Unlocking Void Dark in the post-game will unlock the "Elite Four" squad.]]
** Another one has Zeroken giving promotions for instruction in the Ultimate Demon Technique. [[spoiler:The postgame has him teaching the Ultimate Demon Technique to others.]]
** A third has Zeroken being pulled into another dimension and becoming ridiculously strong through training. [[spoiler:Replace "Zeroken" with "Goldion", and it's pretty damn accurate. Oh, and Baal is a thing.]]
** A fourth has Majorita doing hard time on Toto Bunny to pay for her crimes. [[spoiler:She used one of her own curses to come back from her zombified state... but the nature of the curse enthralls her to Usalia.]]
** In-game, when Killia and Zeroken use the same technique, Killia says that even a kid can learn it. [[spoiler: In the ending, Zeroken starts a dojo with young students...which leads him to ask Killia for help in the post-game, because his students are learning ''fast'']].
* CallBack: Christo is [[spoiler: an angel trying to assassinate an Overlord, just like Flonne was in the first game. This may or may not be a coincidence. This may or may not be a CallForward.]]
* TheCameo: Baal appears and is mentioned in one of the OnTheNext sequences.
* CaptainErsatz: Logan, a minor overlord who talks exactly like Hulk Hogan.
* CombinedEnergyAttack: [[spoiler:Generally, the Ultimate Skill of the Ultimate Demon Technique, Macrocosm, uses the power of both the pure innocent heart of the user and the hearts of those he wishes to protect, unleashing a powerful KamehameHadouken. It reaches it's most powerful state at the end, when each of Killia's allies fuel the Macrocosm with their Overloads.]]
* ContinuityNod:
** [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten The first Prinny rule of including the word "dood"]] is mentioned again.
** Priere's CombinationAttack with Christo has her temporarily take human form. The attack itself is based on a similar CombinationAttack Overlord Priere had with Alouette in ''[[VideoGame/LaPucelle La Pucelle Ragnarok]]''.
** At one point Seraphina says something is longer than [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Dragon Overlord Babylon]].
* CosmeticReward: Defeating Super Overlord Baal for the first time rewards you with the Axel Gear accessory. Aside from changing your movement animation, it gives a measly 15 point boost to all stats and is utterly outclassed by pretty much every other accessory in the game.
* CutscenePowerToTheMax:
** The first time you see Killia, he defeats an entire Lost army single-handedly. Obviously, Killia can't actually do that in combat at level 3.
** Seraphina casts her overload, Balor Gaze, seemingly at will in cutscenes, sometimes repeatedly in quick succession. In combat, of course, it can only be triggered in Revenge mode, like all overload powers.
* DarkerAndEdgier: While previous games have had less than pleasant things happen to their main cast, Nippon Ichi claims Disgaea 5 will be darker than the previous games. The story having revenge as its main theme and the main character appearing to be much more broody than past Disgaea leads seem to cement this.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Played with in-story for the DLC. Despite being the victor of most of the battles, ''Killia'' is recruited into the parties of several past ''Disgaea'' leads, becoming a vassal, a Prinny Instructor, and an Evil Academy student for Laharl, Valvatorez, and Mao respectively.
* DemotedToExtra: [[spoiler: The original ''VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness'' trio, after being post game regulars for a very long time, have been Demoted To DLC.]]
** The original Dragon class, a regular recurring class since the first game (though it was originally DLC for the third game), is not part of the monster class line-up, being replaced by the Two-Headed Dragon class. The original Dragons do show up in cut-scenes...roasted and served on a platter for Killia's consumption.
** In a similar vein, the Spirit class (a recurring magic-based class from the first game) is not part of the monster class line-up and in their place are [[TheFairFolk Fairies]].
* {{DLC}}: Interestingly, many of the DLC character s are sold in packs and come with mini-scenarios that must be completed in order to unlock them. The current confirmed characters in the Japanese release are [[VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Laharl, Etna, Flonne]], [[VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2 Sicily, Girl Laharl]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten Valvatorez, Fenrich, Vulcanus/Artina, Fuka, Desco, Emizel]], [[VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} Nisa]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice Mao, Raspberyl, Salvatore, Almaz, Sapphire]], [[VideoGame/TheWitchAndTheHundredKnight Metallia]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories Adell, Rozalin, Axel]], [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Zetta, Pram, Petta]], [[VideoGame/LaPucelle Priere]], and [[RecurringExtra Pleinair]]. There are also three downloadable character classes: [[AngelicBeauty Celestial Hostess]], [[{{Ninja}} Kunoichi]], and Sorcerer. Finally, a fight against Baal was added in a patch.
** There was apparently a ''Famitsu'' poll that would be used to determine which characters would become DLC; it's not clear if any of the above characters were asked for in this poll.
** Another set of DLC included "Helper Prinnies", all of whom started at level 100 and had skills and abilities that were difficult (if not impossible) to acquire otherwise.
* DoItYourselfThemeTune: Main/MamoruMiyano sings the game's main theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GhvJK5Iurg Kill Real]].
* DualWielding: An unlockable evility lets characters do this, letting them use both of their sub-weapons at the same time.
* EasilyForgiven: Averted with the villains[[spoiler:, when they join the party in the postgame. While Goldion was brainwashed, he explicitly holds himself responsible for the atrocities he committed at the time, and helps the party as a means to atone. Void is somewhat tolerated, and he intends to atone as well, but Killia makes it clear that the road to redemption will be long and laborious; he was willing to take the easy way out, even with Majorita poised to kill him, but Killia and Usalia put a stop to that. As for Majorita, she remains willfully unrepentant, but the curse she afflicted to herself to avoid death mandates that she fulfill Usalia's wishes; given how much Majorita delighted in tormenting the girl, she's not getting out of this one lightly.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Mainly concerning [[spoiler: Christo's true identity]], with a lot of small hints:
** When he is first introduced, he says [[spoiler: thank God before quickly correcting himself to thank the Devil.]]
** One of his skills [[spoiler: is an angelic healing light that's stated to be "adjusted for demons".]]
** Glorious Light looks identical to one of [[spoiler: Lamington's]] attacks.
* GratuitousEnglish: The default base theme ''Moving On'' is sung entirely in English by a Japanese singer. It's very clear English isn't her first language.
* GretzkyHasTheBall: The Next Episode segment at the end of Episode 5 has Seraphina introduce herself as a genius soccer player joining a losing soccer team to even the odds. However, it becomes very clear to the players and the characters throughout the whole segment that Seraphina doesn't even know rules of the game. One of her special techniques, the Direct Money Bomber, involves her ''pitching'' the ball into the goal. Seraphina handwaves this in-universe by saying that, because they're demons, the game has no rules, making it less soccer than Calvinball.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:All three of the major villains become playable and join the group in the post-game.]]
* InterfaceSpoiler: The Celestial Host's Holy Saber skill damages demons but heals angels. If used on [[spoiler: Christo]] it will heal him, revealing his true nature. Though averted in that you can't actually unlock the Celestial Host until after the story makes it obvious anyway.
* ImplausibleDeniability: A particularly hilarious case in that EVERYONE is in on the secret, but pretend it doesn't exist anyway. [[spoiler: That being Christo being an angel.]] Both Christo and the entire party pretend TheReveal never happened, and whenever evidence to the contrary [[spoiler: like his horns falling off]] comes about, they pretend that doesn't happen either.
* KamehameHadouken: The strongest skills of Ultimate Demon Techniques, [[spoiler:Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm]], involve shooting a powerful beam from the user' fists. [[spoiler:In-game, Killia is the only character to be able to use both of them solo. Zeroken and Void have to team up with Killia to do Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm respectively while Bloods requires all three of his students perform a world-shattering version Macrocosm.]]
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Averted with regards to Rozalin from VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories. [[spoiler: Despite the fact that her Overload temporarily turns her back into the real Overloard Zenon, nowhere in the game is she actually referred to as Zenon.]]
* LimitBreak: Overload skills, special abilities that can only be used once per map that can be activated when the character enters Revenge mode. They're only accessible to unique characters until the postgame, where the Overloads of recruitable Overlords can be given to any character you want.
** Seraphina's [[CharmPerson Balor Gaze]] puts all male, non-boss enemies in the Charmed state, causing them to attack their teammates. [[spoiler: She later gains an upgraded version called True Brionac Gaze that outright lets you control the enemies and give them commands like moving or attacking]].
** Red Magnus' [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever Super Olympia]] causes him to become giant and increases his stats and area of effect on his unique attacks. [[spoiler: He gains Super Universe during the events at Scorching Flame, which makes him ''even bigger'' and gives him better stat boosts]].
** Christo's [[CombatClairvoyance Occhi Clairvoyance]] increases the evasion and accuracy of his allies. [[spoiler: It upgrades to Evangel of Purity later, which increase the evasion and accuracy boosts to 100%]].
** Zeroken gains [[NinjaLog Superluminal Wolf]] a couple chapters after he joins the party. It splits him into 5 different Zerokens, one with the same stats as the original while the other 4 have far less than that, but can still be issued commands.
** Usalia also gains her Overload, [[UnstoppableRage Murmur of Rage]], later than everyone above. It damages every enemy on the map and [[spoiler:transforms her into her Berserk form, granting her the Archer class' Support Attack ability with limitless range and a special 3x3 unique attack that deals massive damage]].
** [[spoiler: Killia's]] [[SuperSpeed Tyrant Revelio]] allows them to perform 3 movements and attacks in a single turn [[spoiler: and transforms him back into Tyrant Overlord Killidia]].
** Bloodis' [[OneManArmy Spirited Tempest]] increases his stats by 100% for 2 turns. He's almost invincible in this state, so trying to pick a fight with him probably won't work out.
** Majorita's [[AnimateDead Broken Faith Magia]] brings back any allies that died on that map. [[spoiler: When she joins you in the postgame, it's changed so that it summons dead enemies instead]]. Notable for being pretty important to the plot unlike the rest of the Overloads listed here; namely, [[spoiler: Void Dark needed it so that he could bring Liezerota back from the dead]].
** Void Dark has an Overload called Brigante Eclipse, [[PowerParasite which steals other overloads]]. [[spoiler: When fighting him as a boss, he'll use it to cast the Overloads he stole in-story. However his playable version only has [[ExtraTurn Alma Ice Sculpture]], which forces any enemies he attacks to skip their next turn.]]
** Logan's Largest Throw XXL doubles his already massive throwing range for 3 turns.
** Geese's [[RegeneratingHealth Miracle Regen]] heals him for 20% of his max health at the end of each turn for 7 turns.
** Hedler's [[PoisonousPerson Poison Party Mist]] poisons all enemies within 5 panels of him.
** Erynder Z's Indomitable Spread heals all allies on the map.
** Izuna's [[HerdHittingAttack Comet Disaster]] deals decent star damage to all enemies on the map.
** Drumdawn's [[BehemothBattle Attack on Giant]] makes all allies on the map giant.
** Brave's [[NighInvulnerability Immovable Vajra]] makes him immune to all damage, but he can't do anything while in that state.
** Several DLC characters also get Overloads:
*** Laharl and Girl Laharl have Atrocious Prince, which deals massive damage to all units within a 5 tile Radius of 5 tiles.
*** Etna has Chaotic Ordina, which summons a large number of Prinnies to fight on her behalf.
*** Flonne has Volunteer Sauveur, which transforms Flonne into Pure Flonne, giving her a 30% boost to all stats.
*** Adell has Ameretat's Bravery, which boosts Adell's damage by 2000%, and lets him move up to 32 tiles.
*** Rozalin has Severe Aeshema, which transforms her into [[spoiler:True Zenon]], boosting her ATK by 30%.
*** Mao has Astaroth Reform, which increases the equipment proficiency of all allies by 50%.
*** Valvatorez has Tepes Nightmare, which transforms him into Tyrant Valvatorez.
*** Desco has Channel Azi Dahaka, which insta-kills all weaker units within 5 tiles.
*** Overlord Priere has Extreme Mardock, which lets her take her move again every time she kills an enemy (at the cost of a stat penalty every time she does so).
*** Zetta has Grand Avesta, which summons a building on top of the base panel, increasing the number of units you can dispatch by 5.
*** Pram has Wishdom of Ipos, which causes her to evade all attacks for two turns.
*** Petta has Future Eyre, which lets all units use their Overloads a second time.
* LoveTriangle: Seraphina is in love with Killia (not that she'd admit it), who is in love with Liezerota, who died before the story started, but returned Killia's feelings when she was alive.
** In the post-game, [[spoiler: Lieze and Seraphina even outright admit to each other that they both like Killia, but try to get along. It appears that Killia's going for Lieze, but he is of course oblivious to the competition]].
* MythologyGag:
** The three Asagi [[spoiler:clones]] the party encounters are based on the different depictions of Asagi throughout all of her cameos. The arrogant Idol Asagi is based on the most common depiction of Asagi starting with ''VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters'' and her being an idol is based on her ending in ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]'' and her cameo ''VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2''. Cry Baby Asagi is based on the depressed depictions of Asagi like in ''VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice'' and ''VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten''. Finally, Dark Asagi with the constant shadow over her eyes and not so nice personality is reminiscent of Asagi's EvilCounterpart Asagi Kurosugi from ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]''.
** Adell and Rozalin's Rising Ice Phoenix attack ends with them dancing with each not unlike the intro to ''VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories''.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One of the new units is a zombie [[NinjaMaid maid]]. With a gun.
* NoBadassToHisValet: The postgame has everyone agreeing that the most incredible character in the game is [[spoiler: Lieze, for having TheHero, the reformed BigBad and the WorldsStrongestMan all under her thumb without her really even trying.]]
* NonStandardGameOver: There are a total of five different times in the game where this can happen, titled "Humiliating Loss," [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death,"]] "Regrettable End," Successor Failure," and "Suicidal Decision":
** "Humiliating Loss" if you lose to [[spoiler:Red Magnus the first time you meet him. He runs off to face Void Dark on his own, but winds up missing, implying he either died to Void Dark or, knowing how Red Magnus is, he got lost trying to find him]].
** [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death"]] happens if you attack and [[spoiler:kill Usalia during your first encounter with her in her Cursed Berserker state. The spell she's under is lifted, but she dies in the process. Devastated that he couldn't save Usalia, Killia leaves the rebel army, and the rest of the army disbands soon after. And with nobody left to oppose him, Void Dark proceeds to conquer more and more Netherworlds]].
** "Regrettable End" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Majorita during your final fight with her. Christo gets a call from his Superior, who says that Armageddon has been launched. The monstrous weapon winds up reducing multiple Netherworlds to nothing. However, Void Dark manages to evade the attack and counterattacks Celestia without hesitation, igniting a war between angels and demons]].
** "Successor Failure" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Bloodis during your final fight with him. Basically, Bloodis reveals himself to that he's Goldion to Killia, but is disappointed that Killia's failed to master Ultimate Demon Skill, and defeats Killia and his entire team. Bloodis is then executed for his traitorous actions, and Void Dark goes on to conquer the rest of the Netherworlds]].
** Lastly, "Suicidal Decision" happens if you choose to [[spoiler:"stay calm and think" during the final stage of the true final boss of the game, Liezerota Dark. Liezerota kills herself to destroy Void Dark's dark essence, ending the Demon Emperor's reign of terror once and for all, but leaving Killia ashamed that he couldn't save the woman he loved]].
* OneWingedAngel: Several Overloads involves characters transforming into their most powerful form. Among these include [[spoiler:Tyrant Revelio which turns Killia into Tyrant Overlord Killidia, Murmur of Rage which turns Usalia into Berserk Usalia, Volunteer Sauveur which turns Flonne into Pure Flonne, Tepes Nightmare which turns Valvatorez into Tyrant Valvatorez, and Severe Aeshma which turns Rozalin into Overlord Zenon.]]
* OutOfCharacter: Men during the Next Episode segments tend to be depicted by Seraphina as blathering idiots who desperately vying for her affection. The main cast often comment on their depiction.
-->'''Killia?:''' Ah, my lovely Seraphina! I will not allow anyone else to have you! Please marry me!
-->'''Killia:''' ...Who's that?
-->'''Red Magnus?:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on for one minute! Sera is mine! Red Magnus won't let anyone else super have her!
-->'''Red Magnus:''' ...Who's that?
* PocketDimension: In this game, your base is the entire dimension, which apparently can also be "piloted" like a ship through the void.
* PolarOppositeTwins: [[spoiler:Void Dark and Liezerota. Lieze is the gentle and compassionate older twin, while Void is the cold and ruthless younger twin]].
* RatedMForManly: Notably in contrast to [[VideoGame/DisgaeaD2 the previous game]] which only had one major male party member, the majority of the cast of this game are buff martial artists.
* RebelliousPrincess: Seraphina runs away from home to avoid the ArrangedMarriage between herself and Void Dark. She is also actively planning ways to kill Void Dark.
* {{Revenge}}: This is a major theme in Disgaea 5. It's even in the game's English subtitle -- ''Alliance of Vengeance''.
** The game's new mechanic Revenge Mode functions by empowering your unit with stat boosts whenever your allies get beat on.
* ShipTease:
** There's a promo art that features Seraphina imagining herself [[http://savingthegeneration.tumblr.com/post/108721205386 getting married to Killia]].
** A number of Next Episode Preview Skits portray Killia and Seraphina as a couple.
** Killia's relationship with Liezerota has shades of this. [[spoiler:The game pretty much ends up favouring [[FirstGirlWins Lieze]] over [[HopelessSuitor Seraphina]].]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}: [[WalkingShirtlessScene Killia]] and [[MsFanservice Seraphina]] wear very revealing outfits, as do a number of the generic hirelings, notably the Nine-Tails and the Succubus.
* UndyingLoyalty: The Toto Bunny Prinnies are some of the most loyal and competent Prinnies yet. The Toto Bunny Overlord considers them as part of the family and, in turn, they are willing to do everything support and serve the royal family. Their introductory episode has one somehow infiltrate the pocket Netherworld to steal curry in spite of the presence of Overlords and regularly surprises it's foes with various abilities.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Killia and Red Magnus.

''Franchise/{{Disgaea}} 5: Alliance of Vengeance'' is the sixth game in the wacky TurnBasedStrategy series ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'', the work of Creator/NipponIchi. It is Nippon Ichi's first game for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4.
A powerful and evil Overlord named Void Dark is conquering Netherworlds with The Lost, his army of over one million. A group of Overlords from conquered Netherworlds have decided that enough is enough, and rise against Void Dark to take vengeance. The story revolves around Killia, a young demon that seeks revenge against Void Dark. Joining him on his path of vengeance is Seraphina, the Princess Overlord of Gorgeous who [[RebelliousPrincess ran away from home]] to avoid an ArrangedMarriage. The protagonists must travel to different Netherworlds to recruit Overlords and build an army against Void Dark.

* BattleRoyale: At one point, Void Dark's sanctuary is invaded by about a dozen sibling overlords who try to topple him. After effortlessly killing their leader, he decides one, and only one of them, can become one of his Demon Generals... if they kill all of their brothers. [[spoiler:This gets a CallBack in later on, when the party is confronted by the winner.]]
* BeamOWar: When Bloodis uses [[spoiler:Macrocosm]] the second time, Killia counters back with the same attack, leading to this. [[spoiler:Because Macrocosm's true strength lies in the combined strength of the user and allies' hearts, it is Killia who wins the BeamOWar.]]

* BrickJoke: The "On the Next" segments are too ridiculous to be true... most of the time.
** One of the "On the Next" segments claims that Void Dark is merely the first member of a group called the "Elite Four". [[spoiler: Unlocking Void Dark in the post-game will unlock the "Elite Four" squad.]]
** Another one has Zeroken giving promotions for instruction in the Ultimate Demon Technique. [[spoiler:The postgame has him teaching the Ultimate Demon Technique to others.]]
** A third has Zeroken being pulled into another dimension and becoming ridiculously strong through training. [[spoiler:Replace "Zeroken" with "Goldion", and it's pretty damn accurate. Oh, and Baal is a thing.]]
** A fourth has Majorita doing hard time on Toto Bunny to pay for her crimes. [[spoiler:She used one of her own curses to come back from her zombified state... but the nature of the curse enthralls her to Usalia.]]
** In-game, when Killia and Zeroken use the same technique, Killia says that even a kid can learn it. [[spoiler: In the ending, Zeroken starts a dojo with young students...which leads him to ask Killia for help in the post-game, because his students are learning ''fast'']].
* CallBack: Christo is [[spoiler: an angel trying to assassinate an Overlord, just like Flonne was in the first game. This may or may not be a coincidence. This may or may not be a CallForward.]]
* TheCameo: Baal appears and is mentioned in one of the OnTheNext sequences.
* CaptainErsatz: Logan, a minor overlord who talks exactly like Hulk Hogan.
* CombinedEnergyAttack: [[spoiler:Generally, the Ultimate Skill of the Ultimate Demon Technique, Macrocosm, uses the power of both the pure innocent heart of the user and the hearts of those he wishes to protect, unleashing a powerful KamehameHadouken. It reaches it's most powerful state at the end, when each of Killia's allies fuel the Macrocosm with their Overloads.]]
* ContinuityNod:
** [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten The first Prinny rule of including the word "dood"]] is mentioned again.
** Priere's CombinationAttack with Christo has her temporarily take human form. The attack itself is based on a similar CombinationAttack Overlord Priere had with Alouette in ''[[VideoGame/LaPucelle La Pucelle Ragnarok]]''.
** At one point Seraphina says something is longer than [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Dragon Overlord Babylon]].
* CosmeticReward: Defeating Super Overlord Baal for the first time rewards you with the Axel Gear accessory. Aside from changing your movement animation, it gives a measly 15 point boost to all stats and is utterly outclassed by pretty much every other accessory in the game.
* CutscenePowerToTheMax:
** The first time you see Killia, he defeats an entire Lost army single-handedly. Obviously, Killia can't actually do that in combat at level 3.
** Seraphina casts her overload, Balor Gaze, seemingly at will in cutscenes, sometimes repeatedly in quick succession. In combat, of course, it can only be triggered in Revenge mode, like all overload powers.
* DarkerAndEdgier: While previous games have had less than pleasant things happen to their main cast, Nippon Ichi claims Disgaea 5 will be darker than the previous games. The story having revenge as its main theme and the main character appearing to be much more broody than past Disgaea leads seem to cement this.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Played with in-story for the DLC. Despite being the victor of most of the battles, ''Killia'' is recruited into the parties of several past ''Disgaea'' leads, becoming a vassal, a Prinny Instructor, and an Evil Academy student for Laharl, Valvatorez, and Mao respectively.
* DemotedToExtra: [[spoiler: The original ''VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness'' trio, after being post game regulars for a very long time, have been Demoted To DLC.]]
** The original Dragon class, a regular recurring class since the first game (though it was originally DLC for the third game), is not part of the monster class line-up, being replaced by the Two-Headed Dragon class. The original Dragons do show up in cut-scenes...roasted and served on a platter for Killia's consumption.
** In a similar vein, the Spirit class (a recurring magic-based class from the first game) is not part of the monster class line-up and in their place are [[TheFairFolk Fairies]].
* {{DLC}}: Interestingly, many of the DLC character s are sold in packs and come with mini-scenarios that must be completed in order to unlock them. The current confirmed characters in the Japanese release are [[VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Laharl, Etna, Flonne]], [[VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2 Sicily, Girl Laharl]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten Valvatorez, Fenrich, Vulcanus/Artina, Fuka, Desco, Emizel]], [[VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} Nisa]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice Mao, Raspberyl, Salvatore, Almaz, Sapphire]], [[VideoGame/TheWitchAndTheHundredKnight Metallia]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories Adell, Rozalin, Axel]], [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Zetta, Pram, Petta]], [[VideoGame/LaPucelle Priere]], and [[RecurringExtra Pleinair]]. There are also three downloadable character classes: [[AngelicBeauty Celestial Hostess]], [[{{Ninja}} Kunoichi]], and Sorcerer. Finally, a fight against Baal was added in a patch.
** There was apparently a ''Famitsu'' poll that would be used to determine which characters would become DLC; it's not clear if any of the above characters were asked for in this poll.
** Another set of DLC included "Helper Prinnies", all of whom started at level 100 and had skills and abilities that were difficult (if not impossible) to acquire otherwise.
* DoItYourselfThemeTune: Main/MamoruMiyano sings the game's main theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GhvJK5Iurg Kill Real]].
* DualWielding: An unlockable evility lets characters do this, letting them use both of their sub-weapons at the same time.
* EasilyForgiven: Averted with the villains[[spoiler:, when they join the party in the postgame. While Goldion was brainwashed, he explicitly holds himself responsible for the atrocities he committed at the time, and helps the party as a means to atone. Void is somewhat tolerated, and he intends to atone as well, but Killia makes it clear that the road to redemption will be long and laborious; he was willing to take the easy way out, even with Majorita poised to kill him, but Killia and Usalia put a stop to that. As for Majorita, she remains willfully unrepentant, but the curse she afflicted to herself to avoid death mandates that she fulfill Usalia's wishes; given how much Majorita delighted in tormenting the girl, she's not getting out of this one lightly.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Mainly concerning [[spoiler: Christo's true identity]], with a lot of small hints:
** When he is first introduced, he says [[spoiler: thank God before quickly correcting himself to thank the Devil.]]
** One of his skills [[spoiler: is an angelic healing light that's stated to be "adjusted for demons".]]
** Glorious Light looks identical to one of [[spoiler: Lamington's]] attacks.
* GratuitousEnglish: The default base theme ''Moving On'' is sung entirely in English by a Japanese singer. It's very clear English isn't her first language.
* GretzkyHasTheBall: The Next Episode segment at the end of Episode 5 has Seraphina introduce herself as a genius soccer player joining a losing soccer team to even the odds. However, it becomes very clear to the players and the characters throughout the whole segment that Seraphina doesn't even know rules of the game. One of her special techniques, the Direct Money Bomber, involves her ''pitching'' the ball into the goal. Seraphina handwaves this in-universe by saying that, because they're demons, the game has no rules, making it less soccer than Calvinball.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:All three of the major villains become playable and join the group in the post-game.]]
* InterfaceSpoiler: The Celestial Host's Holy Saber skill damages demons but heals angels. If used on [[spoiler: Christo]] it will heal him, revealing his true nature. Though averted in that you can't actually unlock the Celestial Host until after the story makes it obvious anyway.
* ImplausibleDeniability: A particularly hilarious case in that EVERYONE is in on the secret, but pretend it doesn't exist anyway. [[spoiler: That being Christo being an angel.]] Both Christo and the entire party pretend TheReveal never happened, and whenever evidence to the contrary [[spoiler: like his horns falling off]] comes about, they pretend that doesn't happen either.
* KamehameHadouken: The strongest skills of Ultimate Demon Techniques, [[spoiler:Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm]], involve shooting a powerful beam from the user' fists. [[spoiler:In-game, Killia is the only character to be able to use both of them solo. Zeroken and Void have to team up with Killia to do Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm respectively while Bloods requires all three of his students perform a world-shattering version Macrocosm.]]
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Averted with regards to Rozalin from VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories. [[spoiler: Despite the fact that her Overload temporarily turns her back into the real Overloard Zenon, nowhere in the game is she actually referred to as Zenon.]]
* LimitBreak: Overload skills, special abilities that can only be used once per map that can be activated when the character enters Revenge mode. They're only accessible to unique characters until the postgame, where the Overloads of recruitable Overlords can be given to any character you want.
** Seraphina's [[CharmPerson Balor Gaze]] puts all male, non-boss enemies in the Charmed state, causing them to attack their teammates. [[spoiler: She later gains an upgraded version called True Brionac Gaze that outright lets you control the enemies and give them commands like moving or attacking]].
** Red Magnus' [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever Super Olympia]] causes him to become giant and increases his stats and area of effect on his unique attacks. [[spoiler: He gains Super Universe during the events at Scorching Flame, which makes him ''even bigger'' and gives him better stat boosts]].
** Christo's [[CombatClairvoyance Occhi Clairvoyance]] increases the evasion and accuracy of his allies. [[spoiler: It upgrades to Evangel of Purity later, which increase the evasion and accuracy boosts to 100%]].
** Zeroken gains [[NinjaLog Superluminal Wolf]] a couple chapters after he joins the party. It splits him into 5 different Zerokens, one with the same stats as the original while the other 4 have far less than that, but can still be issued commands.
** Usalia also gains her Overload, [[UnstoppableRage Murmur of Rage]], later than everyone above. It damages every enemy on the map and [[spoiler:transforms her into her Berserk form, granting her the Archer class' Support Attack ability with limitless range and a special 3x3 unique attack that deals massive damage]].
** [[spoiler: Killia's]] [[SuperSpeed Tyrant Revelio]] allows them to perform 3 movements and attacks in a single turn [[spoiler: and transforms him back into Tyrant Overlord Killidia]].
** Bloodis' [[OneManArmy Spirited Tempest]] increases his stats by 100% for 2 turns. He's almost invincible in this state, so trying to pick a fight with him probably won't work out.
** Majorita's [[AnimateDead Broken Faith Magia]] brings back any allies that died on that map. [[spoiler: When she joins you in the postgame, it's changed so that it summons dead enemies instead]]. Notable for being pretty important to the plot unlike the rest of the Overloads listed here; namely, [[spoiler: Void Dark needed it so that he could bring Liezerota back from the dead]].
** Void Dark has an Overload called Brigante Eclipse, [[PowerParasite which steals other overloads]]. [[spoiler: When fighting him as a boss, he'll use it to cast the Overloads he stole in-story. However his playable version only has [[ExtraTurn Alma Ice Sculpture]], which forces any enemies he attacks to skip their next turn.]]
** Logan's Largest Throw XXL doubles his already massive throwing range for 3 turns.
** Geese's [[RegeneratingHealth Miracle Regen]] heals him for 20% of his max health at the end of each turn for 7 turns.
** Hedler's [[PoisonousPerson Poison Party Mist]] poisons all enemies within 5 panels of him.
** Erynder Z's Indomitable Spread heals all allies on the map.
** Izuna's [[HerdHittingAttack Comet Disaster]] deals decent star damage to all enemies on the map.
** Drumdawn's [[BehemothBattle Attack on Giant]] makes all allies on the map giant.
** Brave's [[NighInvulnerability Immovable Vajra]] makes him immune to all damage, but he can't do anything while in that state.
** Several DLC characters also get Overloads:
*** Laharl and Girl Laharl have Atrocious Prince, which deals massive damage to all units within a 5 tile Radius of 5 tiles.
*** Etna has Chaotic Ordina, which summons a large number of Prinnies to fight on her behalf.
*** Flonne has Volunteer Sauveur, which transforms Flonne into Pure Flonne, giving her a 30% boost to all stats.
*** Adell has Ameretat's Bravery, which boosts Adell's damage by 2000%, and lets him move up to 32 tiles.
*** Rozalin has Severe Aeshema, which transforms her into [[spoiler:True Zenon]], boosting her ATK by 30%.
*** Mao has Astaroth Reform, which increases the equipment proficiency of all allies by 50%.
*** Valvatorez has Tepes Nightmare, which transforms him into Tyrant Valvatorez.
*** Desco has Channel Azi Dahaka, which insta-kills all weaker units within 5 tiles.
*** Overlord Priere has Extreme Mardock, which lets her take her move again every time she kills an enemy (at the cost of a stat penalty every time she does so).
*** Zetta has Grand Avesta, which summons a building on top of the base panel, increasing the number of units you can dispatch by 5.
*** Pram has Wishdom of Ipos, which causes her to evade all attacks for two turns.
*** Petta has Future Eyre, which lets all units use their Overloads a second time.
* LoveTriangle: Seraphina is in love with Killia (not that she'd admit it), who is in love with Liezerota, who died before the story started, but returned Killia's feelings when she was alive.
** In the post-game, [[spoiler: Lieze and Seraphina even outright admit to each other that they both like Killia, but try to get along. It appears that Killia's going for Lieze, but he is of course oblivious to the competition]].
* MythologyGag:
** The three Asagi [[spoiler:clones]] the party encounters are based on the different depictions of Asagi throughout all of her cameos. The arrogant Idol Asagi is based on the most common depiction of Asagi starting with ''VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters'' and her being an idol is based on her ending in ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]'' and her cameo ''VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2''. Cry Baby Asagi is based on the depressed depictions of Asagi like in ''VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice'' and ''VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten''. Finally, Dark Asagi with the constant shadow over her eyes and not so nice personality is reminiscent of Asagi's EvilCounterpart Asagi Kurosugi from ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]''.
** Adell and Rozalin's Rising Ice Phoenix attack ends with them dancing with each not unlike the intro to ''VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories''.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One of the new units is a zombie [[NinjaMaid maid]]. With a gun.
* NoBadassToHisValet: The postgame has everyone agreeing that the most incredible character in the game is [[spoiler: Lieze, for having TheHero, the reformed BigBad and the WorldsStrongestMan all under her thumb without her really even trying.]]
* NonStandardGameOver: There are a total of five different times in the game where this can happen, titled "Humiliating Loss," [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death,"]] "Regrettable End," Successor Failure," and "Suicidal Decision":
** "Humiliating Loss" if you lose to [[spoiler:Red Magnus the first time you meet him. He runs off to face Void Dark on his own, but winds up missing, implying he either died to Void Dark or, knowing how Red Magnus is, he got lost trying to find him]].
** [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death"]] happens if you attack and [[spoiler:kill Usalia during your first encounter with her in her Cursed Berserker state. The spell she's under is lifted, but she dies in the process. Devastated that he couldn't save Usalia, Killia leaves the rebel army, and the rest of the army disbands soon after. And with nobody left to oppose him, Void Dark proceeds to conquer more and more Netherworlds]].
** "Regrettable End" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Majorita during your final fight with her. Christo gets a call from his Superior, who says that Armageddon has been launched. The monstrous weapon winds up reducing multiple Netherworlds to nothing. However, Void Dark manages to evade the attack and counterattacks Celestia without hesitation, igniting a war between angels and demons]].
** "Successor Failure" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Bloodis during your final fight with him. Basically, Bloodis reveals himself to that he's Goldion to Killia, but is disappointed that Killia's failed to master Ultimate Demon Skill, and defeats Killia and his entire team. Bloodis is then executed for his traitorous actions, and Void Dark goes on to conquer the rest of the Netherworlds]].
** Lastly, "Suicidal Decision" happens if you choose to [[spoiler:"stay calm and think" during the final stage of the true final boss of the game, Liezerota Dark. Liezerota kills herself to destroy Void Dark's dark essence, ending the Demon Emperor's reign of terror once and for all, but leaving Killia ashamed that he couldn't save the woman he loved]].
* OneWingedAngel: Several Overloads involves characters transforming into their most powerful form. Among these include [[spoiler:Tyrant Revelio which turns Killia into Tyrant Overlord Killidia, Murmur of Rage which turns Usalia into Berserk Usalia, Volunteer Sauveur which turns Flonne into Pure Flonne, Tepes Nightmare which turns Valvatorez into Tyrant Valvatorez, and Severe Aeshma which turns Rozalin into Overlord Zenon.]]
* OutOfCharacter: Men during the Next Episode segments tend to be depicted by Seraphina as blathering idiots who desperately vying for her affection. The main cast often comment on their depiction.
-->'''Killia?:''' Ah, my lovely Seraphina! I will not allow anyone else to have you! Please marry me!
-->'''Killia:''' ...Who's that?
-->'''Red Magnus?:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on for one minute! Sera is mine! Red Magnus won't let anyone else super have her!
-->'''Red Magnus:''' ...Who's that?
* PocketDimension: In this game, your base is the entire dimension, which apparently can also be "piloted" like a ship through the void.
* PolarOppositeTwins: [[spoiler:Void Dark and Liezerota. Lieze is the gentle and compassionate older twin, while Void is the cold and ruthless younger twin]].
* RatedMForManly: Notably in contrast to [[VideoGame/DisgaeaD2 the previous game]] which only had one major male party member, the majority of the cast of this game are buff martial artists.
* RebelliousPrincess: Seraphina runs away from home to avoid the ArrangedMarriage between herself and Void Dark. She is also actively planning ways to kill Void Dark.
* {{Revenge}}: This is a major theme in Disgaea 5. It's even in the game's English subtitle -- ''Alliance of Vengeance''.
** The game's new mechanic Revenge Mode functions by empowering your unit with stat boosts whenever your allies get beat on.
* ShipTease:
** There's a promo art that features Seraphina imagining herself [[http://savingthegeneration.tumblr.com/post/108721205386 getting married to Killia]].
** A number of Next Episode Preview Skits portray Killia and Seraphina as a couple.
** Killia's relationship with Liezerota has shades of this. [[spoiler:The game pretty much ends up favouring [[FirstGirlWins Lieze]] over [[HopelessSuitor Seraphina]].]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}: [[WalkingShirtlessScene Killia]] and [[MsFanservice Seraphina]] wear very revealing outfits, as do a number of the generic hirelings, notably the Nine-Tails and the Succubus.
* UndyingLoyalty: The Toto Bunny Prinnies are some of the most loyal and competent Prinnies yet. The Toto Bunny Overlord considers them as part of the family and, in turn, they are willing to do everything support and serve the royal family. Their introductory episode has one somehow infiltrate the pocket Netherworld to steal curry in spite of the presence of Overlords and regularly surprises it's foes with various abilities.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Killia and Red Magnus.
-----
to:
''Franchise/{{Disgaea}} 5: Alliance of Vengeance'' is the sixth game in the wacky TurnBasedStrategy series ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'', the work of Creator/NipponIchi. It is Nippon Ichi's first game for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4.
A powerful and evil Overlord named Void Dark is conquering Netherworlds with The Lost, his army of over one million. A group of Overlords from conquered Netherworlds have decided that enough is enough, and rise against Void Dark to take vengeance. The story revolves around Killia, a young demon that seeks revenge against Void Dark. Joining him on his path of vengeance is Seraphina, the Princess Overlord of Gorgeous who [[RebelliousPrincess ran away from home]] to avoid an ArrangedMarriage. The protagonists must travel to different Netherworlds to recruit Overlords and build an army against Void Dark.
This games features numerous new features not seen in previous Disgaea games. Resistance and affiliation statistics for units on the battlefield can be seen when units are highlighted. There is also a revenge system that activates when party members are defeated. Several new units are introduced in Disgaea 5: the Dark Knight, Maid, Pirate, Sage, Wrestler, Fairy, Nine-Tailed, Chimera, Imp, Grizzly, Rabbit Fighter, Two-Headed Dragon and Cavalier.
-----
!!This game provides examples of:
* ArrangedMarriage: Seraphina's father has arranged a marriage of convenience between his daughter and Void Dark. Seraphina is not very happy about this.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures
** The Cheat Shop from VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2 returns, allowing players to tweak HL or EXP drops to their liking.
** Also from VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2, if a bill fails, players have the option of spending HL to force it to pass.
** Characters can have sub-classes, making it much easier to get Evilities from other classes.
** Characters can equip sub-weapons, letting them quickly switch between multiple skill-sets in battle.
** The item bag is much larger than other games, and there are no limits to what you can take into item worlds.
*** Added to that, The Innocent System has been revised, and now allows you to remove an innocent from an item WITHOUT subduing them, the originally time consuming task now relegated to purely when you fuse Innocents.
** Recruiting new units costs HL instead of Mana, and by spending extra HL you can start them at a higher level. (Reincarnation still costs Mana, however)
** Dying in a normal battle gives you the option to either retry the battle from the beginning, return to your base, or return to the title screen.
** In previous games, Big Bang was often the only generic non-magic skill with a 3x3 AreaOfEffect and could only be used with a fist (Though swords would occasionally gain such a skill). This meant that for grinding Ordeal stages (Which almost always place enemies in a 3x3 pattern), unless the character had magic or a unique 3x3 skill, the character had to change their weapon to a fist, even if he or she is not proficient with them. This game bucks that trend by giving each weapon type a 3x3 AreaOfEffect skill, allowing characters to grind while still holding onto their WeaponOfChoice.
** The Paint Shop is now combined with the Assembly, and has an unlockable option to modify the colours individually.
** The Character Unlock Assembly bills have been completely replaced with Quests, which range from ranking up a particular class to the obligatory fetch quest.
** In previous Disgaea games, getting the alternate endings can be a huge hassle as they force a NewGamePlus afterwards. Here, you just go back to the base after an alternate ending plays.
** Most DLC in previous games are inaccessible until the Post Game. Here, you can obtain the DLC characters at any time, and they just scale with your story progress so you can easily obtain them whenever you want.
* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Red Magnus' [[LimitBreak Overload]] causes him to grow giant-sized, drastically increasing his stats for a few turns.
** Other characters can experience a lesser version of this if they're part of the "Giant Slayer" squad, which makes them giant-sized for the first few turns in a battle.
* BashBrothers: Kilia and Zeroken become this; the latter even begins calling our hero "bro" to emphasize their connection. [[spoiler:In the post game, ''Void'' also joins in, but Zero is understandably more hesitant about giving him the nickname.]]
* BattleRoyale: At one point, Void Dark's sanctuary is invaded by about a dozen sibling overlords who try to topple him. After effortlessly killing their leader, he decides one, and only one of them, can become one of his Demon Generals... if they kill all of their brothers. [[spoiler:This gets a CallBack in later on, when the party is confronted by the winner.]]
* BeamOWar: When Bloodis uses [[spoiler:Macrocosm]] the second time, Killia counters back with the same attack, leading to this. [[spoiler:Because Macrocosm's true strength lies in the combined strength of the user and allies' hearts, it is Killia who wins the BeamOWar.]]
* BigEater: Killia eats a lot because he needs to maintain a high calorie intake. [[spoiler: It's because he needs the extra energy to suppress the doubt in his heart.]]
* BlindIdiotTranslation: Some of the Evilities are, at best, INCREDIBLY poorly worded. "Flying Bullets" gives the equipped character limitless attack range when equipped with a gun. Does this mean the character can attack from clear across the map? No, you've still got the same range as before, it just allows you to attack diagonally, which you can't normally do with guns. "Hold the Line" prevents enemies from entering within 2 panels while the user is using the Defend command. Surely this means that if they're defending they can't be targeted by close range attackers? No, it just means that enemies can't go around them. They can still go right next to them and attack directly.
* BonusBoss: Baal, of course, though he was added in a patch. Also [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject Proto Darkdeath]] in the Item World]], and Overlord Priere in the DLC.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Killia and Liezerota.
* BrickJoke: The "On the Next" segments are too ridiculous to be true... most of the time.
** One of the "On the Next" segments claims that Void Dark is merely the first member of a group called the "Elite Four". [[spoiler: Unlocking Void Dark in the post-game will unlock the "Elite Four" squad.]]
** Another one has Zeroken giving promotions for instruction in the Ultimate Demon Technique. [[spoiler:The postgame has him teaching the Ultimate Demon Technique to others.]]
** A third has Zeroken being pulled into another dimension and becoming ridiculously strong through training. [[spoiler:Replace "Zeroken" with "Goldion", and it's pretty damn accurate. Oh, and Baal is a thing.]]
** A fourth has Majorita doing hard time on Toto Bunny to pay for her crimes. [[spoiler:She used one of her own curses to come back from her zombified state... but the nature of the curse enthralls her to Usalia.]]
** In-game, when Killia and Zeroken use the same technique, Killia says that even a kid can learn it. [[spoiler: In the ending, Zeroken starts a dojo with young students...which leads him to ask Killia for help in the post-game, because his students are learning ''fast'']].
* CallBack: Christo is [[spoiler: an angel trying to assassinate an Overlord, just like Flonne was in the first game. This may or may not be a coincidence. This may or may not be a CallForward.]]
* TheCameo: Baal appears and is mentioned in one of the OnTheNext sequences.
* CaptainErsatz: Logan, a minor overlord who talks exactly like Hulk Hogan.
* CombinedEnergyAttack: [[spoiler:Generally, the Ultimate Skill of the Ultimate Demon Technique, Macrocosm, uses the power of both the pure innocent heart of the user and the hearts of those he wishes to protect, unleashing a powerful KamehameHadouken. It reaches it's most powerful state at the end, when each of Killia's allies fuel the Macrocosm with their Overloads.]]
* ContinuityNod:
** [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten The first Prinny rule of including the word "dood"]] is mentioned again.
** Priere's CombinationAttack with Christo has her temporarily take human form. The attack itself is based on a similar CombinationAttack Overlord Priere had with Alouette in ''[[VideoGame/LaPucelle La Pucelle Ragnarok]]''.
** At one point Seraphina says something is longer than [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Dragon Overlord Babylon]].
* CosmeticReward: Defeating Super Overlord Baal for the first time rewards you with the Axel Gear accessory. Aside from changing your movement animation, it gives a measly 15 point boost to all stats and is utterly outclassed by pretty much every other accessory in the game.
* CutscenePowerToTheMax:
** The first time you see Killia, he defeats an entire Lost army single-handedly. Obviously, Killia can't actually do that in combat at level 3.
** Seraphina casts her overload, Balor Gaze, seemingly at will in cutscenes, sometimes repeatedly in quick succession. In combat, of course, it can only be triggered in Revenge mode, like all overload powers.
* DarkerAndEdgier: While previous games have had less than pleasant things happen to their main cast, Nippon Ichi claims Disgaea 5 will be darker than the previous games. The story having revenge as its main theme and the main character appearing to be much more broody than past Disgaea leads seem to cement this.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Played with in-story for the DLC. Despite being the victor of most of the battles, ''Killia'' is recruited into the parties of several past ''Disgaea'' leads, becoming a vassal, a Prinny Instructor, and an Evil Academy student for Laharl, Valvatorez, and Mao respectively.
* DemotedToExtra: [[spoiler: The original ''VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness'' trio, after being post game regulars for a very long time, have been Demoted To DLC.]]
** The original Dragon class, a regular recurring class since the first game (though it was originally DLC for the third game), is not part of the monster class line-up, being replaced by the Two-Headed Dragon class. The original Dragons do show up in cut-scenes...roasted and served on a platter for Killia's consumption.
** In a similar vein, the Spirit class (a recurring magic-based class from the first game) is not part of the monster class line-up and in their place are [[TheFairFolk Fairies]].
* {{DLC}}: Interestingly, many of the DLC character s are sold in packs and come with mini-scenarios that must be completed in order to unlock them. The current confirmed characters in the Japanese release are [[VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Laharl, Etna, Flonne]], [[VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2 Sicily, Girl Laharl]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten Valvatorez, Fenrich, Vulcanus/Artina, Fuka, Desco, Emizel]], [[VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} Nisa]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice Mao, Raspberyl, Salvatore, Almaz, Sapphire]], [[VideoGame/TheWitchAndTheHundredKnight Metallia]], [[VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories Adell, Rozalin, Axel]], [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Zetta, Pram, Petta]], [[VideoGame/LaPucelle Priere]], and [[RecurringExtra Pleinair]]. There are also three downloadable character classes: [[AngelicBeauty Celestial Hostess]], [[{{Ninja}} Kunoichi]], and Sorcerer. Finally, a fight against Baal was added in a patch.
** There was apparently a ''Famitsu'' poll that would be used to determine which characters would become DLC; it's not clear if any of the above characters were asked for in this poll.
** Another set of DLC included "Helper Prinnies", all of whom started at level 100 and had skills and abilities that were difficult (if not impossible) to acquire otherwise.
* DoItYourselfThemeTune: Main/MamoruMiyano sings the game's main theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GhvJK5Iurg Kill Real]].
* DualWielding: An unlockable evility lets characters do this, letting them use both of their sub-weapons at the same time.
* EasilyForgiven: Averted with the villains[[spoiler:, when they join the party in the postgame. While Goldion was brainwashed, he explicitly holds himself responsible for the atrocities he committed at the time, and helps the party as a means to atone. Void is somewhat tolerated, and he intends to atone as well, but Killia makes it clear that the road to redemption will be long and laborious; he was willing to take the easy way out, even with Majorita poised to kill him, but Killia and Usalia put a stop to that. As for Majorita, she remains willfully unrepentant, but the curse she afflicted to herself to avoid death mandates that she fulfill Usalia's wishes; given how much Majorita delighted in tormenting the girl, she's not getting out of this one lightly.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Mainly concerning [[spoiler: Christo's true identity]], with a lot of small hints:
** When he is first introduced, he says [[spoiler: thank God before quickly correcting himself to thank the Devil.]]
** One of his skills [[spoiler: is an angelic healing light that's stated to be "adjusted for demons".]]
** Glorious Light looks identical to one of [[spoiler: Lamington's]] attacks.
* GratuitousEnglish: The default base theme ''Moving On'' is sung entirely in English by a Japanese singer. It's very clear English isn't her first language.
* GretzkyHasTheBall: The Next Episode segment at the end of Episode 5 has Seraphina introduce herself as a genius soccer player joining a losing soccer team to even the odds. However, it becomes very clear to the players and the characters throughout the whole segment that Seraphina doesn't even know rules of the game. One of her special techniques, the Direct Money Bomber, involves her ''pitching'' the ball into the goal. Seraphina handwaves this in-universe by saying that, because they're demons, the game has no rules, making it less soccer than Calvinball.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:All three of the major villains become playable and join the group in the post-game.]]
* InterfaceSpoiler: The Celestial Host's Holy Saber skill damages demons but heals angels. If used on [[spoiler: Christo]] it will heal him, revealing his true nature. Though averted in that you can't actually unlock the Celestial Host until after the story makes it obvious anyway.
* ImplausibleDeniability: A particularly hilarious case in that EVERYONE is in on the secret, but pretend it doesn't exist anyway. [[spoiler: That being Christo being an angel.]] Both Christo and the entire party pretend TheReveal never happened, and whenever evidence to the contrary [[spoiler: like his horns falling off]] comes about, they pretend that doesn't happen either.
* KamehameHadouken: The strongest skills of Ultimate Demon Techniques, [[spoiler:Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm]], involve shooting a powerful beam from the user' fists. [[spoiler:In-game, Killia is the only character to be able to use both of them solo. Zeroken and Void have to team up with Killia to do Avidya Holy Water and Macrocosm respectively while Bloods requires all three of his students perform a world-shattering version Macrocosm.]]
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Averted with regards to Rozalin from VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories. [[spoiler: Despite the fact that her Overload temporarily turns her back into the real Overloard Zenon, nowhere in the game is she actually referred to as Zenon.]]
* LimitBreak: Overload skills, special abilities that can only be used once per map that can be activated when the character enters Revenge mode. They're only accessible to unique characters until the postgame, where the Overloads of recruitable Overlords can be given to any character you want.
** Seraphina's [[CharmPerson Balor Gaze]] puts all male, non-boss enemies in the Charmed state, causing them to attack their teammates. [[spoiler: She later gains an upgraded version called True Brionac Gaze that outright lets you control the enemies and give them commands like moving or attacking]].
** Red Magnus' [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever Super Olympia]] causes him to become giant and increases his stats and area of effect on his unique attacks. [[spoiler: He gains Super Universe during the events at Scorching Flame, which makes him ''even bigger'' and gives him better stat boosts]].
** Christo's [[CombatClairvoyance Occhi Clairvoyance]] increases the evasion and accuracy of his allies. [[spoiler: It upgrades to Evangel of Purity later, which increase the evasion and accuracy boosts to 100%]].
** Zeroken gains [[NinjaLog Superluminal Wolf]] a couple chapters after he joins the party. It splits him into 5 different Zerokens, one with the same stats as the original while the other 4 have far less than that, but can still be issued commands.
** Usalia also gains her Overload, [[UnstoppableRage Murmur of Rage]], later than everyone above. It damages every enemy on the map and [[spoiler:transforms her into her Berserk form, granting her the Archer class' Support Attack ability with limitless range and a special 3x3 unique attack that deals massive damage]].
** [[spoiler: Killia's]] [[SuperSpeed Tyrant Revelio]] allows them to perform 3 movements and attacks in a single turn [[spoiler: and transforms him back into Tyrant Overlord Killidia]].
** Bloodis' [[OneManArmy Spirited Tempest]] increases his stats by 100% for 2 turns. He's almost invincible in this state, so trying to pick a fight with him probably won't work out.
** Majorita's [[AnimateDead Broken Faith Magia]] brings back any allies that died on that map. [[spoiler: When she joins you in the postgame, it's changed so that it summons dead enemies instead]]. Notable for being pretty important to the plot unlike the rest of the Overloads listed here; namely, [[spoiler: Void Dark needed it so that he could bring Liezerota back from the dead]].
** Void Dark has an Overload called Brigante Eclipse, [[PowerParasite which steals other overloads]]. [[spoiler: When fighting him as a boss, he'll use it to cast the Overloads he stole in-story. However his playable version only has [[ExtraTurn Alma Ice Sculpture]], which forces any enemies he attacks to skip their next turn.]]
** Logan's Largest Throw XXL doubles his already massive throwing range for 3 turns.
** Geese's [[RegeneratingHealth Miracle Regen]] heals him for 20% of his max health at the end of each turn for 7 turns.
** Hedler's [[PoisonousPerson Poison Party Mist]] poisons all enemies within 5 panels of him.
** Erynder Z's Indomitable Spread heals all allies on the map.
** Izuna's [[HerdHittingAttack Comet Disaster]] deals decent star damage to all enemies on the map.
** Drumdawn's [[BehemothBattle Attack on Giant]] makes all allies on the map giant.
** Brave's [[NighInvulnerability Immovable Vajra]] makes him immune to all damage, but he can't do anything while in that state.
** Several DLC characters also get Overloads:
*** Laharl and Girl Laharl have Atrocious Prince, which deals massive damage to all units within a 5 tile Radius of 5 tiles.
*** Etna has Chaotic Ordina, which summons a large number of Prinnies to fight on her behalf.
*** Flonne has Volunteer Sauveur, which transforms Flonne into Pure Flonne, giving her a 30% boost to all stats.
*** Adell has Ameretat's Bravery, which boosts Adell's damage by 2000%, and lets him move up to 32 tiles.
*** Rozalin has Severe Aeshema, which transforms her into [[spoiler:True Zenon]], boosting her ATK by 30%.
*** Mao has Astaroth Reform, which increases the equipment proficiency of all allies by 50%.
*** Valvatorez has Tepes Nightmare, which transforms him into Tyrant Valvatorez.
*** Desco has Channel Azi Dahaka, which insta-kills all weaker units within 5 tiles.
*** Overlord Priere has Extreme Mardock, which lets her take her move again every time she kills an enemy (at the cost of a stat penalty every time she does so).
*** Zetta has Grand Avesta, which summons a building on top of the base panel, increasing the number of units you can dispatch by 5.
*** Pram has Wishdom of Ipos, which causes her to evade all attacks for two turns.
*** Petta has Future Eyre, which lets all units use their Overloads a second time.
* LoveTriangle: Seraphina is in love with Killia (not that she'd admit it), who is in love with Liezerota, who died before the story started, but returned Killia's feelings when she was alive.
** In the post-game, [[spoiler: Lieze and Seraphina even outright admit to each other that they both like Killia, but try to get along. It appears that Killia's going for Lieze, but he is of course oblivious to the competition]].
* MythologyGag:
** The three Asagi [[spoiler:clones]] the party encounters are based on the different depictions of Asagi throughout all of her cameos. The arrogant Idol Asagi is based on the most common depiction of Asagi starting with ''VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters'' and her being an idol is based on her ending in ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]'' and her cameo ''VideoGame/DisgaeaDimension2''. Cry Baby Asagi is based on the depressed depictions of Asagi like in ''VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice'' and ''VideoGame/Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten''. Finally, Dark Asagi with the constant shadow over her eyes and not so nice personality is reminiscent of Asagi's EvilCounterpart Asagi Kurosugi from ''[[VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero Asagi Wars]]''.
** Adell and Rozalin's Rising Ice Phoenix attack ends with them dancing with each not unlike the intro to ''VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories''.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One of the new units is a zombie [[NinjaMaid maid]]. With a gun.
* NoBadassToHisValet: The postgame has everyone agreeing that the most incredible character in the game is [[spoiler: Lieze, for having TheHero, the reformed BigBad and the WorldsStrongestMan all under her thumb without her really even trying.]]
* NonStandardGameOver: There are a total of five different times in the game where this can happen, titled "Humiliating Loss," [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death,"]] "Regrettable End," Successor Failure," and "Suicidal Decision":
** "Humiliating Loss" if you lose to [[spoiler:Red Magnus the first time you meet him. He runs off to face Void Dark on his own, but winds up missing, implying he either died to Void Dark or, knowing how Red Magnus is, he got lost trying to find him]].
** [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death"]] happens if you attack and [[spoiler:kill Usalia during your first encounter with her in her Cursed Berserker state. The spell she's under is lifted, but she dies in the process. Devastated that he couldn't save Usalia, Killia leaves the rebel army, and the rest of the army disbands soon after. And with nobody left to oppose him, Void Dark proceeds to conquer more and more Netherworlds]].
** "Regrettable End" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Majorita during your final fight with her. Christo gets a call from his Superior, who says that Armageddon has been launched. The monstrous weapon winds up reducing multiple Netherworlds to nothing. However, Void Dark manages to evade the attack and counterattacks Celestia without hesitation, igniting a war between angels and demons]].
** "Successor Failure" happens if you lose to [[spoiler:Bloodis during your final fight with him. Basically, Bloodis reveals himself to that he's Goldion to Killia, but is disappointed that Killia's failed to master Ultimate Demon Skill, and defeats Killia and his entire team. Bloodis is then executed for his traitorous actions, and Void Dark goes on to conquer the rest of the Netherworlds]].
** Lastly, "Suicidal Decision" happens if you choose to [[spoiler:"stay calm and think" during the final stage of the true final boss of the game, Liezerota Dark. Liezerota kills herself to destroy Void Dark's dark essence, ending the Demon Emperor's reign of terror once and for all, but leaving Killia ashamed that he couldn't save the woman he loved]].
* OneWingedAngel: Several Overloads involves characters transforming into their most powerful form. Among these include [[spoiler:Tyrant Revelio which turns Killia into Tyrant Overlord Killidia, Murmur of Rage which turns Usalia into Berserk Usalia, Volunteer Sauveur which turns Flonne into Pure Flonne, Tepes Nightmare which turns Valvatorez into Tyrant Valvatorez, and Severe Aeshma which turns Rozalin into Overlord Zenon.]]
* OutOfCharacter: Men during the Next Episode segments tend to be depicted by Seraphina as blathering idiots who desperately vying for her affection. The main cast often comment on their depiction.
-->'''Killia?:''' Ah, my lovely Seraphina! I will not allow anyone else to have you! Please marry me!
-->'''Killia:''' ...Who's that?
-->'''Red Magnus?:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on for one minute! Sera is mine! Red Magnus won't let anyone else super have her!
-->'''Red Magnus:''' ...Who's that?
* PocketDimension: In this game, your base is the entire dimension, which apparently can also be "piloted" like a ship through the void.
* PolarOppositeTwins: [[spoiler:Void Dark and Liezerota. Lieze is the gentle and compassionate older twin, while Void is the cold and ruthless younger twin]].
* RatedMForManly: Notably in contrast to [[VideoGame/DisgaeaD2 the previous game]] which only had one major male party member, the majority of the cast of this game are buff martial artists.
* RebelliousPrincess: Seraphina runs away from home to avoid the ArrangedMarriage between herself and Void Dark. She is also actively planning ways to kill Void Dark.
* {{Revenge}}: This is a major theme in Disgaea 5. It's even in the game's English subtitle -- ''Alliance of Vengeance''.
** The game's new mechanic Revenge Mode functions by empowering your unit with stat boosts whenever your allies get beat on.
* ShipTease:
** There's a promo art that features Seraphina imagining herself [[http://savingthegeneration.tumblr.com/post/108721205386 getting married to Killia]].
** A number of Next Episode Preview Skits portray Killia and Seraphina as a couple.
** Killia's relationship with Liezerota has shades of this. [[spoiler:The game pretty much ends up favouring [[FirstGirlWins Lieze]] over [[HopelessSuitor Seraphina]].]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}: [[WalkingShirtlessScene Killia]] and [[MsFanservice Seraphina]] wear very revealing outfits, as do a number of the generic hirelings, notably the Nine-Tails and the Succubus.
* UndyingLoyalty: The Toto Bunny Prinnies are some of the most loyal and competent Prinnies yet. The Toto Bunny Overlord considers them as part of the family and, in turn, they are willing to do everything support and serve the royal family. Their introductory episode has one somehow infiltrate the pocket Netherworld to steal curry in spite of the presence of Overlords and regularly surprises it's foes with various abilities.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Killia and Red Magnus.

Liezerota kills herself to destroy Void Dark's dark essence, ending the Demon Emperor's reign of terror once and for all, but failing to save the woman Killia loved]]...

** [[spoiler:"Usalia's Death"]] happens if you attack and [[spoiler:kill Usalia during your first encounter with her in her Cursed Berserker state, the spell she's under is lifted, but she dies in the process.

* ForcedLevelGrinding: Not for the main story - that can be beaten fairly easy. But to complete all of the optional post-game content, as might be required for trophy hunters, you'll need to do a LOT of grinding. Putting it into perspective: The Carnage Dimension version of the final boss sports a whopping 99,999,999 in every stat, as does most of her entourage. Leveling a character straight to 9,999 without any of the bells and whistles puts their stats in the 100,000 range if you're lucky, with a few extra 10,000s from your gear.

* BlindIdiotTranslation: Some of the Evilities are, at best, INCREDIBLY poorly worded. "Flying Bullets" gives the equipped character limitless attack range when equipped with a gun. Does this mean the character can attack from clear across the map? No, you've still got the same range as before, it just allows you to attack diagonally, which you can't normally do with guns. "Hold the Line" prevents enemies from entering within 2 panels while the user is using the Defend command. Surely this means that if they're defending they can't be targeted by close range attackers? No, it just means that enemies can't go around them. They can still go right next to them and attack directly.
