* AnAxeToGrind: An usable power. Very slow and hard to time, but with above average damage output.



* OneHundredPercentCompletion: There are 48 "achievements" of sort. These range from easy ones (find the hidden shops, get more than 5000 coins), to hard but doable (beat the game with less than 10 deaths, get all Moon Fragments) to ridiculously difficult ([[NoDamageRun beat the extra boss without taking a hit]], complete the second special world).
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler: Farilina and Hina]] show up during [[spoiler: the fight with [[TrueFinalBoss Lucea]]]] to save Tobari and give her new powers.

* BrutalBonusLevel: The aforementioned World??. It combines navigating through absurdly difficult platforming segments, filled with [[SpikesOfDoom red spikes]], [[BottomlessPit lots of pits]], [[AutoScrollingLevel fast scrolling screens]] and overall requiring extremely quick reaction times, with some [[MoonLogicPuzzle completely illogical puzzles]]. It also pretty much [[ForcedLevelGrinding forces you to grind coins for one of its stages]].
* BulletHell: Endgame enemies and bosses are quite fond of this strategy. The second special boss [[UpToEleven isn't even funny]].



* CollisionDamage: Most mobs damage you on contact, but [[ZigzaggedTrope surprisingly enough]], bosses don't. You can freely hang around them while they're not in the middle of an attack.
* DarkIsNotEvil: [[spoiler: The Dark Clan of the moon as a whole, and Lucea in particular. Corruption aside, she's just a sad little girl who thinks she's lost her best friend.]]



** DishingOutDirt: The Shoot Rock spell.
* ElegantGothicLolita: Tsubaki.
* EleventhHourSuperpower: In true ''Kirby'' fashion, you get the Holy Staff for the second phase of the [[TrueFinalBoss extra boss]]. It works exactly like your normal attack, but has greater power and reach, and most importantly, it cancels enemy bullets. [[BulletHell You WILL need it]].
* FollowTheMoney: Mostly played straight, and can be a way to reach hidden parts of the level, but [[SubvertedTrope cruelly subverted]] in the bonus worlds, where doing so will lead to your death most of the times.
* FlunkyBoss: Everyone does this to a degree, but it's most notable with Tsubaki and the bonus boss, who summons [[DegradedBoss very weak but annoying clones of every other boss]].
* FinalBoss: [[spoiler: Hina corrupted by the "Moon's Illness". She gets better, thank to [[ThePowerOfFriendship the power of friendship]]]]
* FinalBossNewDimension: With said dimension obviously being an [[AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield amazing technicolor battlefield]].
* GetBackHereBoss: The bonus boss moves around like crazy, [[AutoScrollingLevel and takes the screen with her]].



* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: A non-romantic example, this is [[spoiler: basically the reason Hina went ahead on her own instead of consulting Tobari, since she didn't want her to get hurt]]. The feeling is also mutual.
* KaizoTrap: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed.]] Nothing will ever kill after touching the goal, but getting past it in some way or another is often necessary to get hidden goodies.



* LifeMeter

to:

* LifeMeterLifeMeter: 3 Hearts, but you can temporarily get up to 6 by buying the "Jellied Yam" item.


Added DiffLines:

* MarathonBoss: The bonus boss has so much health that her life meters ''[[SerialEscalation break the screen]]''
* MercyInvincibility: Only lasts for a few instants, but can still be exploited.
* {{Moe Moe}}: ''[[ImprobablyFemaleCast The whole cast, really]]''.
* MoonRabbit: The Usagi/Rabbits, cute girls [[LittleBitBeastly with rabbit ears]] that often offer useful advice. Most enemies also are have various kinds of rabbit features.
* PassionateSportsGirl: Asuka, head of the the sport club. Even her attacks often involve tennis, basket and volleyballs.


Added DiffLines:

* PuzzlePlatformer: Not really evident if you just blast your way through, but getting all Moon Fragments require tinkering with the right skills in creative ways. The extra world also has multiple levels that employ this.
* SlippySlideyIceWorld: World 4. Slippery platform will continue to appear now and then too.


Added DiffLines:

* SuspiciousVideogameGenerosity: If you find lots of coins, a couple of [[OneUp life stars]] and a shop, expect a boss ahead. The penultimate stage is also a glaring example, as it [[BreatherLevel contains nothing but coins and extra lives]].
* ThirdPersonPerson: Tsubaki talks like this.
* TimeStandStill: The Stop spell. Tobari even yells "WARUDO FREEZE" when using it.
* TrueFinalBoss: [[spoiler: Corrupted Lucea, the princess of the Dark Clan of the Moon and Farilina's best friend]].
* ZergRush: The Sheep Butlers' favourite tactic. They're weak, but good luck fending off a thousand of them..

[[quoteright:275:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Tobari_and_the_Night_of_The_Curious_Moon_275px_3737.jpg]]
It was a late autumn night when a pale light descended from the night sky that only a scent few have noticed. The following morning, Tobari, the chief hall monitor of her school, arrived to the school's preparation of their culture festival to find her friend, Hina, not wearing her school uniform. Later that afternoon, many students gathered and the sky suddenly grew dark and dusk-like, like something out of a fairy tale as time leapt forward. Amidst the chaos, Hina began to act strangely and head away from the school. With that, Tobari began her adventure on the [[TitleDrop night of the curious moon]].
