Funny / Darius

• This classic line from the first Zone of Darius II^note And given that the series' bosses are made up of giant mechanical marine life, it makes sense as a Pre Ass Kicking One Liner:
  Tiat Young: I always wanted a thing called tuna sashimi.
• From Darius Plus: "A HUGE BATTLESHIP MY HOME DADDY IS APPROACHING FAST."
• In Chronicle Saviours, Serumedesu requires you to meet a score quota before the final zone to unlock an alternate route. After the pilot is briefed that the mission may change based on performance, they respond, "So I just need to aim for the high score, right?" If they get put on the lower-score route, they complain, "Damn, I didn't get enough points!"
• The Game Over screen for Another Chronicle has a warning illustration, telling you to "mind [your] head when leaving", as the cabinet is a deluxe sit-down cabinet with a roof. This warning still shows up in the home ports.
