Bonus Boss is a disambiguation


* If you beat ''Soul Edge/Soul Blade'' with Mitsurugi, you get a BonusBoss against Tanegashima, named as such for the rifle he wields, because Mitsu suddenly gets incredibly confident that he can defeat even rifles with his blade. The average player not expecting the fight or the imminent gunshot [[DidntThinkThisThrough will die in one hit,]] to which the shooter comments that he ''did'' warn Mitsu beforehand.

* One of Siegfried's victory quotes in III:
--> '''Siegfried:''' I avoided your vitals. You'll live.
**By itself it's not funny, until you realize he says this to everyone he defeats. [[ItMakesSenseInContext INCLUDING ABYSS.]]

Fighting With Chucks is no longer a trope


* ''SCII'' and ''SCIII'' also have some unintentional hilarity with [[LargeHamAnnouncer the narrator]] before every fight. One of the lines is "The almighty ones have granted you a SWORD to cut your own path." Seems like Kilik, [[FightingWithChucks Maxi]], and the like are screwed.

* The Dreamcast port of ''Soulcalibur'' allows you to customize the introduction, which isn't too odd on its own. But there's one scene in particular where the chosen fighter is seen in a wind-blown grassy plain, standing up and running their fingers through their hair as they turn to face the camera. The scene is clearly scripted for a female [[note]]Sophitia is the default character used, and the scene's name is even "A Girl in the Wind"[[/note]]; you can select men for the role, anyway.

** In Seong Mi-na's ending in ''II'', Yun-seong is turned into [[HumanPackMule a pack mule]] carrying all their stuff. [[RunningGag This carries over into both of their good endings]] in ''III'' where Yun-seong's has him as a pack mule again, and in Seong Mi-na's he has to not only carry their belongings but [[UpToEleven Seong Mi-na as well]]!

* If you force a custom character in ''IV'' to use Yoda's normally-unavailable moveset via hacking, you'll soon find out ''why'' it's unavailable for custom characters. Because Yoda's so much shorter than the other characters, his lightsaber in the hands of a normally-sized character turns [[{{BFS}} comically huge]]. Furthermore, his acrobatic style with numerous jumps of several times his (small) height are just normal moves when used by him, but a custom character will rocket into the sky... [[HoistByHisOwnPetard and out of the ring]] most of the time.

* Most weapons in II have a brief description of their effects, but joke weapons get FlavorText in their place. Some highlights:
-->'''Child's Sword (Yun-Seong):''' And what am I supposed to do with this?\\
'''Weight (Talim):''' I'm sorry. Please forgive me, I won't do it again!\\
'''Ethereal Edge (Necrid):''' So wispy and so useless.\\
'''Shepherd's Crook (Yoshimitsu):''' Yoshi had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow.\\
'''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast Bug-Catching Net (Link)]]:''' Looks like there are no fairies in this world...
