* HeroesPreferSwords: Lampshaded when retrieving Lowee's legendary weapon. In a mildly meta example, it's a [[DropTheHammer Hammer]] for [[TheBigGuy Blanc]]. A hammer which used to be a spear.

** Getting the Additional Content DLC gives the [=CPUs=] plans for even stronger weapons, though you have to battle some powerful {{Bonus Boss}}es to get them to RandomDrop the plans [[spoiler:or in the Candidate's cases, the gear itself]]. Two of the DLC character's Best weapons however are instead in the coliseum instead of the dungeons. [[PromotedToPlayable Histoire]] also gets an ultimate weapon, herself, but that must be bought upfront. These weapons are the Kiryu Sword (Neptune), [[Literature/TheSongOfRoland Durandal]] (Noire), CPU Crusher (Blanc), [[Myth/NorseMythology Gungnir]] (Vert), [[spoiler:Hyper Beam Zapper (Nepgear), Virtua Blaster (Uni), [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite the Staves of Truth and Ideals]] (Rom and Ram)]], a Noire Plushy (Plutia) and a pair of Star Gloves (Peashy).

* MetalSlime: A parody of the TropeNamer appears in a dungeon but the monster that plays this straight is the Clione, a breed of {{Bonus Boss}}es that will give out [[MoneySpider a lot of credits]] and enough experience to jump several levels. Some also give out [[AndYourRewardIsClothes outfits]], plans for certain characters {{Infinity Plus One Sword}}s and ArmorOfInvincibility, and materials that can be used in crafting the above, if not dropping the gear outright.

''Hyperdimension Neptunia [=Re;Birth1=]'' (''Chō Ji Jigen Game Neptune [=Re;Birth1=]'') is the enhanced remake of ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia'' for the UsefulNotes/PlayStationVita and PC, developed by Felistella. In addition to completely reworked visuals, improved framerate performance, new music and voice acting, various gameplay aspects and plot details have been modified. A new feature dubbed the "remake system" unlocks special game modifications such as new dungeons and in-battle perks. Some characters from the original game were [[PutOnABus removed, such as Gust, Nisa, 5pb and Red]][[note]]Although the latter two do return in [=Re;Birth1=] Plus.[[/note]], whilst new characters were added, including the CPU candidates (Nepgear, Uni, Rom, and Ram) and Plutia and Peashy from ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory'', in addition to Histoire, are playable as DLC characters; the other three Hyperdimension oracles (Kei Jinguji, Mina Nishizawa, and Chika Hakozaki) were later added as DLC characters on September 5, 2018, as were the child versions of IF and Compa on February 4, 2019, and Uzume Tennouboshi from ''VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII'' on May 17, 2019.

* BlindIdiotTranslation: The Vita version had a minor example, where its Wind element is mislabeled "Ice" in descriptions, with some leading you to believe that [[http://i.imgur.com/KsmXbHY.jpg you can count on Wind magic to do Ice damage]]. [[http://puu.sh/gp8dk/5aca44bffd.png This has been corrected in the [=PC=] version.]]

* PantyShot: As is standard with ''Neptunia'', there are various ways to get a panty shot. Just tilting the camera angle will get you this with some girls; Noire is the easiest to perform this on, though it can be seen when some girls attack. Compa's is the most well known; her white panties flash in her VictoryPose.

* PantyFighter: Most of the cast has no issue going into battle with [[DangerouslyShortSkirt short skirts]], playing this trope completely straight.

* DummiedOut: Peashy had lines brought over from Victory and several unique lines pre-recorded for her even though she is a DLC character.

* NotDistractedByTheSexy: One of the workers in Lastation's Basilicom fails to notice Vert and Blanc attempting to use their feminine charms on him.

An UpdatedRerelease, ''Hyperdimension Neptunia [=Re;Birth1=] Plus'', has since been released for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Creator/{{Gust|Corporation}}, [[Creator/NipponIchi NISA]], 5pb. and RED are nowhere to be seen. The latter two do return for [=Re;Birth1 Plus=] though.

-->'''Neptune:''' Well...blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah...
-->'''Broccoli:''' So, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah, [[VerbalTic nyu]]? I see, nyu.

-->'''Neptune:''' "Hey! This lady is too strong for being an early stage boss! I call cheat!"
-->'''Compa:''' "The damage that popped up against us was too large."

** Getting the [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal free]] ''VideoGame/FairyFencerF'' promotional DLC gets Neptune a replica of (or just really dormant) Eryn's Fury form. Which is second only to her other DLC weapon.
* InfinityPlusOneSword:

* KarmaHoudini:

* NoodleIncident: After the [[spoiler: poisoning incident]], Vert "kindly asked" Yvoire never to do something of the like again. The player and characters have no idea what Vert meant by "asked", we just know it terrified Yvoire.

* PantyShot: As is standard with ''Neptunia'', there are various ways to get a panty shot. Just tilting the camera angle will get you this with some girls; Noire is the easiest to perform this on, though it can be seen when some girls attack. Compa's is the most well known; her white panties flash in her victory pose.

* UpdatedRerelease: The entire reason for creating ''[=Re;Birth1=]'', in fact, was to serve this purpose. The game is essentially the first, but using ''Victory's'' battle system; additionally, it has new material to make the storyline fresh. Having an actual budget also get it a leg up on its predecessor's [[NoBudget notoriously shoestring development]].
** And now there's an UpdatedRerelease to the UpdatedRerelease, [=Re;Birth1 Plus=], for the [=PS4=], which adds in new features and characters.

* WakeUpCallBoss: [[spoiler: Black Heart. Facing her below level 20 will require some strategy.]]Also, though optional, Dangerous Shampuru qualifies. Made worse by the facts that a) players can enter this dungeon before seeing the tutorial on dangerous enemies and b) on the field it doesn't look any different from all the normal enemies in the area, and without seeing the tutorial they have no idea what the Orange dot on the minimap means. Many new players tried to fight it with no idea that they were walking into a boss fight.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: It is mentioned frequently in ''Re;Birth1'' that this game is a remake...by ''characters in the game itself''.

Having an actual budget also get it a leg up on its predecessor's [[NoBudget notoriously shoestring development]].

* YuriGenre: Just like the previous games, ''Re;Birth1'' is heavy on the yuri; especially in regards to [=NeptunexNoire=], which has never been shipped harder before, and [=IFxVert=].
-->'''IF:''' "Well, let's find a way out. You girls can do whatever at the hotel."
-->'''Noire:''' "H-H-H-HOTEL?!"
-->'''Neptune:''' "I-Iffy?!"
-->'''Compa:''' "?"
-->'''IF:''' "Hm? What's the matter? [[{{Beat}} ...]] ...Huh? ...Oh...no... No! Don't misunderstand me! I didn't say "do" whatever at the hotel in that sense! No, not at all! Y-You both have your mind in the gutter!"

* {{Irony}}: One of the enemies in ''Re;Birth1'' is called "Super Otaku"... which is more than likely the game's primary audience. TakeThatAudience?

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: [[Creator/GustCorporation Gust]], [[Creator/NipponIchi NISA]], 5pb. and RED are nowhere to be seen. The latter two do return for [=Re;Birth1 Plus=] though.

* ForcedLevelGrinding: Welcome to ''Neptunia'', where getting past the first boss means getting stomped by the next. Like any Neptunia game, ''Re;Birth1'' requires a decent amount of grinding before each boss unless you enjoy risking it all to see the GameOver screen. Fortunately, between quests, plans, and extra dungeons the game gives you plenty to do while you're grinding.

%%Shorthand for the second game should be capitalized as mk2, not Mk2 or mk-2. For the third game, use Victory, not V, since the English name has been confirmed to use the former, and the Japanese title has both.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Some characters who appeared in the original game, such as Gust, Nisa, 5pb. etc, don't make an appearance in the remake. Even poor RED doesn't make her return here. [[RealitySubtext Those characters were Makers representing companies no longer affiliated with the IP]].
