2* EnsembleDarkhorse: Icke and Rudy. These two ''tied'' for first place in a character poll held on Twitter prior to ''Dark Witch 2''[='s=] release.
3* HilariousInHindsight:
4** The unabashed ''Franchise/MegaMan'' clone would eventually receive a character (Herbert) designed by ''VideoGame/MegaManZX'''s artist.
5** In addition to the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII''-inspired parrying technique carried over from [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfDarkWitch the first game]] (Blocking), ''Dark Witch 2'' also borrows Ultra Combos from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' (Revenge Magic). In an interesting coincidence, ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'' would later introduce Menat, a character who fights with a floating orb and has an alternate costume that makes her look like a mummy. Litty's long-lost Egyptian sister?
6* SequelDifficultyDrop: Even without the new mechanics, normal enemies take significantly less punishment in this game than in the first.
7* ThatOneBoss: In Lunatic Mode, Klinsy rapidly fires her fireballs either forward, curving upward, or curving downward. You are left at the mercy of the random generator as to what you'll encounter for each time she attacks, which can, and usually will, result in a series of at least FIVE OR SIX FIREBALLS fired strait at you, which you'll have to jump over in quick succession. Good luck with that.
8* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: ''Dark Witch 2'' is often seen as the best game in the series, winning Inside System's 2018 and 2019 popularity poll, but there is a minority opinion that the game was too heavy-handed in attempting to correct the first ''Dark Witch''[='s=] perceived questionable difficulty. Most notably, the level design is criticized for being overly flat with not enough meaningful platforming.
