History VideoGame / CastleFantasia2Renewal

* [[spoiler:Judy]]: A Rusherian commander with heavy SamusIsAGirl obscuring her identity at first, she proves to be a WorthyOpponent, which hammers a huge nail through the beliefs of Injella that the enemy is the "forces of evil". It's possible to wind up with her, depending on certain story events.

* IndyPloy: Hewie has {{Asspull}}ed some brilliant plans out of nowhere at times.

* Tia: A BladeOnAStick [halberd] user who joins up with your team fairly early. Despite being chronologically old enough, she acts much younger (possibly a tad slow upstairs), who ironically has to be saved from a monster attack at first (she panicked and forgot she could fight).

* BladeOnAStick: Tia, Ciruela, any enemy that uses a spear or lance.

* AbsoluteCleavage" Aria's Renewal outfit

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: The cast has pretty technicolor hairstyles.

''Castle Fantasia 2 Renewal'' (''Castle Fantasia 2: Seima Taisen Renewal'') is a strategy game/H-Game fusion released by Studio e. Go on December 22, 2000, as an UpdatedRerelease to the original ''Castle Fantasia 2''. It was given a FanTranslation by [=BTAxis=].

It's a fairly hard tactical RPG, but it also is an {{Eroge}}, which means that if you play your cards right, you can wind up in a romantic relationship with one of the women in the game, [[PornWithPlot though it's far more concentrated on the strategy gameplay and character development by far]].

* Hewie Elzard : TheHero, leader of the 7th Injellan Holy Corps and something of CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass with ObfuscatingStupidity (as far being the TheStrategist is concerned). As far as straight up fighting skill, he's the prototypical BadassNormal (even his special attack involves hitting people with his sword really hard, no magic involved). He also happens to be a subversion of the ChivalrousPervert, the second part anyway, in that he is Chivalrous, but he does actually care for women and their feelings.
* Gurou Esteban- A {{bishounen}} guy you won't be seeing much of, but he's is romantically involved with the leader of the 3rd Holy Corps, Seria, who gets killed via magical cannon attack. He's commander of the 4th Injellan Holy Corps.

It's possible to wind up with her, depending on certain story events.

** Somia = Silver/white/grey

-----
<<|EasternRPG|>>

* AFatherToHisMen: General Targistan, despite his hardassed demeanor, is really this, especially to Somia, who he promised to watch over [[spoiler: on the request of her dying father]]

* {{Badass}} [[spoiler: Judy, Gayak]], the entirety of the 7th Holy Corps.
** BadassNormal: Hewie, Tia, Aria, Renoir are physical attack based, and can actually kick MORE ass than the magic users.
** CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Hewie purposely dumbs down his intelligence to look lazy, but he's actually a remarkably cunning [[TheStrategist strategist]].

* {{Bifauxnen}} [[spoiler: Judy]], with the armor on, it's hard to tell she's a girl at all.

* AFatherToHisMen (General Targistan, despite his hardassed demeanor, is really this, especially to Somia, who he promised to watch over [[spoiler: on the request of her dying father]]
* AbsoluteCleavage (Aria's Renewal outfit)

* CannotSpitItOut (Ducis, to Karawei)

* PlotlineDeath ([[spoiler:Somia. the original version had her die no matter what, but the renewal version allowed you to avert this.]])

* SquishyWizard: Cecile:

* SubordinateExcuse (Hoo boy, this is played totally straight for not only your hero [in all but two cases, depending on your choices], but for Ducis as well, though to be fair his was kinda unavoidable.

* WhiteMage (Hannah)

* GenreSavvy: Hewie is a moderate case of this. He's not hyper aware of the fact he's in a strategy game like story, but he does realize his situation requires very difficult decisions that he needs to plan in advance for. It doesn't always work, but he's usually right.

* ShoutOut: to MobileSuitGundam's meme of red things going three times faster at one point:

Tropes common to the game are:

* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler: Rusheria has one officer [Gayak] who kills some soldiers who were planning to rape Cireula, who actually falls for him, and Judy believes in not sacking defenseless villages and tries to negotiate an honorable cease fire with Hewie at one point, and it later turns out that Rusheria isn't nearly half as bad as Injella's high command would love to believe.]]

* Ciruela: Originally commander of the 6th Injellan Holy Corps. Once she has her unit wiped out, she joins you. She looks like a YamatoNadeshkio, and fights with her own Blade on a Stick [a naginata].
