* WakeUpCallBoss: Maya. She retains all of her skills from the previous game, and will periodically use her Puff [[LimitBreka Coup de Grace]] to deal heavy damage to anyone who forgets to block. [[spoiler:Fortunately, [[DefeatMeansPlayable she decides to join your party after the battle]], saying it's no fun to prolong the fight against her sister Meena.]]

* BossInMookClothing
** Loss Leaders, easily the most dangerous non-boss enemy in the game. To start with, they're a palette swap of [[spoiler: Dhuran]], who is himself a candidate for That One Boss. ''[[spoiler: Dhuran]] is easier!''. They're mindlessly aggressive, have a wide variety of attacks, do damage in the triple digits per hit, cast Oomph to boost their already immense strength, and have such an impressively high defense that if you're not equipped with the best weapons you can find, you can expect to see a nice bunch of 1's when you hit them. And god help you if you have to deal with two of them. Mercifully, they're only found in an out of the way area in the post-game.

* DiscOneFinalBoss: [[spoiler:The King of Al-Kazam is set up to be the final challenge to peace in the seven realms. Then the High King reveals his true colors.]]

Long ago, the world was ravaged by a horrific war between man and monster. However, under the guidance of the High King of Accordia, a compact was formed, and man and monster came to live in peace as friends and allies in seven kingdoms. For generations, the world has known peace. However, when the king of the desert kingdom of Dunisia is found murdered and the king of the nation of Harba is implicated as a suspect, tensions between the seven kingdoms flare up and threaten to engulf the world in war once again. To prevent such darkness from engulfing the land, two unlikely heroes step forward to gather a group of like-minded and familiar warriors to find the true murderer and save the seven kingdoms from war.

[[caption-width-right:350:And that thing's just the first boss.]]

* BigGood: The King of Accordia is considered this due to being the biggest ReasonableAuthorityFigure and the only monarch with his head on straight as chaos engulfs the land. [[spoiler:Subverted when he's seemingly revealed as the BigBad, then double subverted when it's revealed he was being manipulated by Fractos, the true BigBad.]]

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:The Queen of Ingenia comes off as a stereotypical evil queen when first encountered but, after defeating Maya, she reveals that, like Cesar, she was manipulated by the BigBad.]]
* HeroAntagonist: [[spoiler:Cesar just wants to avenge his father's murder, and was manipulated by the BigBad into thinking Harba was responsible. Once that's cleared up, he eagerly joins the party to make amends.]]

* SlipknotPonytail: Teresa's hair comes undone when entering High Tension.

* LikeBrotherAndSister: Lazarel and Teresa are first cousins who grew up together and behave this way.
