This part in the 1.5 trailer gave me the scares...


* [[NoNonsenseNemesis Nelgel himself could qualify as one of Dragon Quest's scariest villains]]. For starters, he oversees the attack on Tenton and uses his Netherscythe to cut open the sky while sealing Rendacia in darkness. Next, he appears in the Hero's dreams holding the scythe to their neck, ala [[VideoGame/DragonQuestV Bishop Ladja]] warning them to stay out of his affairs. Then, when the Hero meets with Lady Tenda's ghost to reunite their soul with their human body, he tries to consume them in purple flames to ensure they don't get off easy this time. Even after reaching the Heart of Hell with the Heavenly Ark, he traps them in dark bindings and prepares to kill them, though the Original Owner saves them in the nick of time, forcing the Netherlord to battle the Hero himself. Finally, he transforms into a giant demon, the Netherfiend via some Dark Hands and after his defeat [[{{Foreshadowing}} warns of dark powers beyond his control]] before dying. And the kicker? [[DiscOneFinalBoss He's not even the main villain of the whole game!]]

* Near the end of the [[https://youtu.be/X_n2A9e4NkE?si=C0J0EdvXe8xd4spn&t=320 Version 1.5 trailer]], a Night Clubber is attacked and mauled to death by the King of Calamity's monster form, which makes it presence known by its shining [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]]. A startling case of AlwaysABiggerFish indeed.

** [[HopeSpot Even after one flower has been retrieved since all the others were destroyed by Bedora]], the Hero and their companions see smoke in the distance, showing that monsters have already wrecked house while an Archdemon reports to his boss, the Dread Lord Nelgel, [[YouAreTooLate that the attack is underway]].
