* ArtShiftedSequel: Though still based on what ''Fever'' would bring to the table, ''7'' has a much more urban and angular look for its characters, with some of the returning ''Madou'' and Primp characters ditching their signature outfits for modified student blazers, which gives this game a feeling similar to western graphic novels or indie manga.

Nope. All games afterwards are considered mainline. Even the Drama C Ds. Even the novels. I think Quest counts as well.

* GuideDangIt: In the game, the Transformation mode allowed you to pick Both transformations. ''However'', it implies the mode randomly picks one or the other, when in reality it's determined by the color last popped. Outside of the Wii fan translation, the game doesn't elaborate on this.

* AntiFrustrationFeatures: The Wii fan translation adds something that wasn't in the original, which is located in the tutorial for Transformation mode. When playing with Both transformations, what you transformed into was seemingly random, but it turns out there IS a way to know; the last Puyo popped before transforming must be red, blue, or purple to turn Mega, and yellow or green to turn Mini.

''Puyo Puyo 7'' is, as the name implies, the 7th mainline entry in the ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'' series of FallingBlocks games. It released for the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS, followed by the UsefulNotes/NintendoWii and UsefulNotes/PlayStationPortable. Whereas ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'' features a wide variety of modes, ''Puyo Puyo 7'' includes one new ruleset, "Transformation", alongside the returning [[VideoGame/PuyoPuyo1992 Puyo Puyo]], [[VideoGame/PuyoPuyoTsu Tsu]], [[VideoGame/PuyoPuyoFever Fever]], and Nazo Puyo rulesets.
Transformation is a new twist on Fever: at the start of a match, players choose between Mega Puyo Rush, where the player races to match three or more Puyos on a 3x6 field, and Mini-Puyo Fever, where the player clears Fever-esque preset chains on a 10x18 field. The chosen gameplay mode activates when the Transformation gauge is filled, and also causes the player character to transform into an adult and child respectively.
The main story mode forgoes the gauntlet format used by most other ''Puyo Puyo'' games to that point in favor of a more traditional story with acts and episodes. Ringo Ando, a young student hailing from a much more mundane universe from that of the Creator/{{Compile}} or ''Fever'' characters, suddenly finds her world flooded by Puyos and goes on a journey to make sense of the ever-increasing wackiness that follows.

!! Tropes that appear in ''Puyo Puyo 7'':
* AnotherSideAnotherStory: After beating the story the first time, you're allowed to play as one of Ringo's companions at the time of their presence for certain chapters.
* Area51: Is visited in ''Puyo Puyo 7''.
* AWinnerIsYou: This game downplays this trope singlehandedly due to the epilogue, but the ending before the credits certainly qualifies. [[spoiler:After an extremely easy final boss fight against Ecolo, he laments his defeat, Arle, Amitie and Ringo celebrate with one line each, cut to credits in 5 lines and less than 10 words.]]
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:Anyone possessed by Ecolo.]]
* DarkerAndEdgier: Donwplayed. While still having the familiar cute, colorful, and comedic tone SEGA's interpretation of the series is known for, ''Puyo Puyo 7'' would start the trend of games having a plot that involves the prevention of an apocalypse-like situation and including more drama.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: A defeated person might tag along with Ringo for the story, as she takes a few heroes and, for a short bit, Dark Prince.
* HenshinHero: The Transformation mechanic transforms characters into their younger or older selves.
* LazyArtist: ''7'' is noted for having OffModel characters, poor anatomy, and LimitedAnimation, not helped by the series change to OnlySixFaces as a standard. For example, Ecolo, an entirely new character, only attacks with recolored character models from completely unrelated characters.
* LimitBreak: Transformation mode, which actually causes your character to transform along with all their Puyo. Mini mode is like Fever, only the Puyo are tiny, whereas in Mega mode, you play with ''huge'' Puyo that pop in groups of 3 and every match counts as a chain.
* OnlySaneMan: This role is usually held by Arle, but as of this game it seems to have been given to Ringo.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: The new characters [[TheBusCameBack (and Draco)] use the stats of characters that were present in ''15th Anniversary'' but absent here.
* ThemeMusicPowerUp: As with Fever mode, entering [[LimitBreak Transformation]] mode changes the music to a more up-beat song.
* YouCanTalk: If you play as Ringo, Amitie's introduction to squirrel-bear hybrid Risukuma has her react to his ability to speak with a surprised "He can talk?"
