* With the introduction of subclasses, along with the Ninja and Buccaneer (Pirate) classes, it is possible to have a literal [[NinajPirateZombieRobot Ninja Pirate]] or the other way around.

* When you first meet Vivian the innkeeper, not only is she incredibly lazy and sleepy, she has a FatCat, Mr. Merlin, resting on top of her head. Only when Mr. Merlin greets you with a hearty "Mrrrrow!" does she agree to open the inn up for you.

* Masurao can wield up to ''[[DualWielding four blades]]'' at the same time and attack with all of them. It's plausible that they're taking out one or two blades at a time to strike in rapid succession, but it easily provokes the imagery of [[ImplausibleFencingPowers a humanoid with the usual two arms and two legs somehow being able to handle all of those blades simultaneously]], possibly while gripping one of the blade handles between their teeth ([[https://imgur.com/u1UdhMu A sketch]] from the artbooks shows a Masurao actually doing just that). And by quad-wielding blades, the user has no armor, implying that they're fighting in only their underwear or [[FullFrontalAssault in the nude]].

* In the fifth stratum, you'll encounter Steel Acorns that occasionally "square up" one turn and then [[TakingYouWithMe explode]] the next, attempting to inflict the Stone ailment to the entire party, but without doing any damage at all. However, Stone status got a {{Nerf}} in this game by not being counted as death and by becoming temporary, wearing off after a random number of turns or after the battle ends. So if the only enemies left are Steel Acorns and they "square up", you can sit back and relax as [[StupidSacrifice they pointlessly explode and give you the win]].

* Anyone who's played the series long enough knows to never trust squirrels, as they are notorious for field events in which they steal the player's [[EscapeRope Warp Wires / Ariadne Threads]]. In the locked-off section of the 2nd stratum, there are Fire Squirrel enemies that can [[CrossesTheLineTwice destroy your Ariadne Threads WITH A BATTLE SKILL]].

Raquna: Wh-what!? No! [[RealityEnsues That's just a myth!]] And besides, I'm sure she's been hit on the head enough times while we've been fighting monsters.

* One of the quests unlocked after the 3rd stratum involves Lili asking you to help her find something to make into a present for Solor. If you present her with a branch from one of the Chop points, her reaction is amusingly snarky.

--> Lili: Yep. Just what I wanted. A branch... for Solor. What am I supposed to do with this, spank her...?

** The "Timid" option (#8) has your character sometimes calling the enemy "Bully!" and "Butthead!"

* Necromancers have [[ImprobableWeaponUser coffins as their primary weapon type]]. You are free to imagine one beating the enemy over the head with an entire coffin every time they use the basic attack command.

* After beating the second stratum's endboss, you gain access to Legendary Titles. Egar explains how they work, and also points out that the Titles can be renamed however you want. The examples he gives include Fire Slinger, Zap Queen, and... ''Stabdaddy''.
