History Fridge / NoMoreHeroesIII

** Henry's dream encounter with Mimmy in ''2'' was a manifestation of his fear and hatred of Travis' otaku ways, showing there has always been a part of Henry that resented his brother. In this game, Henry also brings up his past with Travis and Jeane for the first time. Maybe as the Cooldown brainwashing wore off, he slowly remembered more and more details that made him hate Travis further.

* Why didn't Midori join in the final fight to attack FU? Because that would risk getting her children in danger. Given that they're the source of her power, if FU crushed them, she would not only be defenseless but the trauma of seeing her little guys die in front of her would make her unable to do anything else. Moreover, she already taunted FU before her boss battle agaisnt Travis; if he found out she betrayed him out of sympathy or an excuse of her children, given how he killed Sonic Juice so he could return to his people, then he'd have no qualms on also killing her.

* After defeating Gold Joe, Travis states "It's the ones who don't look like bad guys who are the real bad guys". This is true for several of the game's characters, from the infant FU with his cute little face, to the comparatively-normal looking human Damon.

** While he has a HealingFactor capable of letting him all sorts of mortal wounds, the final battle against Travis shows that even it seems to have limits given all the punishment he takes. It's entirely likely that FU turning into a kid was all that he could physiologically muster to simply survive - albeit in a form that wouldn't be able to fight back against assassins that wouldn't think twice about putting him down for good, [[WouldHurtAChild his actual age be damned.]]

* Damon never was a warrior. FU calls him out on it just before the game's climax, telling him that he doesn't truly understand Travis because he's not a fighter. This is exemplified in-game by his PressXToNotDie first form not actually involving combat, and his PlatformFighter second form reminiscent of the party fighting game ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. Even afterwards, his final words are a repeated "I don't want to die!", a stunning change from the rest of Travis' opponents in the series who often wish for death or at least face it with some dignity. Even Travis himself seems irked by Damon's pathetic end.

** Travis also discusses the concept of fear with him. FU claims to be incapable of experiencing fear. This is a callback to the fight with Holly Summers in the first game; when she asked Travis if he liked fear he replied: "Can't say. Never felt it." This shows how much Travis has matured since his first crusade, and how he has learned what it really means to constantly kill, unlike FU.

This shows how much Travis has matured since his first crusade, and how he has learned what it really means to constantly kill. FU, on the other hand, is still an immature child.

** Don't forget that Travis married his ex-wife, Sylvia, and now has two kids with her. That oughta hurt a man's ego, assuming he actually loved Sylvia at all.
