History VideoGame / BungoToAlchemist

** The former allows the authors to attack an enemy for massive damage, however it requires the authors to be in a weakened (耗弱, ''moujaku'', attained after receiving enough damage, shown when the author has a blue sign) or breakdown (喪失, ''soushitsu'', attained after taking some damage when weakened, shown when the author has a purple sign, author may [[Main/FinalDeath die]] at this state) state, and since the author is unable to attack during weakened and breakdown, it's basically a DeathOrGloryAttack.

* DamnYouMuscleMemory: After a battle in a node, the game will show 2 buttons, with the left being continue into the next node and the right being return. Due to how similar they look (the only difference being the kanji on it), some players might accidentally click the opposite of their intended decision. This could be dangerous when an author is in a breakdown state, as they might be KilledOffForReal should the player continue ([[DevelopersForesight luckily]] the game would give you reminder when you decide to continue upon having a heavily injured author, potentially avoiding such situation, and if you're on auto, the mission will simply be aborted).

Has a character page under construction. Currently NeedsWikiMagicLove.

* SuddenlyVoiced: Stories are not voiced; the only voiced cutscenes are (most) recollections. Event cutscenes are never voiced upon initial release (with the exception of Kazuo's introduction event), and only get voiced in later game updates.

In April 2020, the game receives an anime adaptation entitled ''Bungo to Alchemist ~Gears of Judgement~'', part of the Spring2020Anime lineup.

* OneStatToRuleThemAll: Crit and evasion, the former can radically alter the outcome of battles, especially with the existence of crit-only enemies, and the latter greatly affects the writer's survivability and maintenance cost. There is a reason the bows, who excel in ''both'' these stats, are usually considered GameBreaker.
