Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica, or Ar Tonelico II: Sekai ni Hibiku Shoujo-tachi no Metafalica (The Girls' Metafalica that Resounds throughout the World, with Metafalica meaning "Song of Creation"), is, obviously enough, the second game in the Ar tonelico series and the overarching EXA_PICO franchise.Taking place in the desolate land of Metafalss, a tiny continent built upon the rim of a tower much like the first game's Ar tonelico, it revolves around two opposed factions: the ruling Grand Bell, which has recently declared war against the Goddess Frelia; and the Sacred Army, who believe that the Goddess enables Metafalss to exist. This ire against the Goddess stems from a failure centuries past at creating Metafalica, a paradise-like land spoken of in legend, which was interrupted by a vicious attack by her defenders. In addition to civil war, Metafalss is ravaged by outbreaks of IPD, a Reyvateil-specific disease which causes the victim to execute song magic uncontrollably and do much damage to herself and her surroundings.Protagonist Croix Bartel, a knight of the Grand Bell, is regularly tasked with stopping the harm done by those afflicted. It is while on a mission to contain one such outbreak that Croix, together with his adopted sister Cocona, is put in quite a different situation. The Holy Maiden Cloche, the Reyvateil who leads the Grand Bell in the war, has come under attack by the Sacred Army. He is soon entrusted with protecting her while they escape. While attempting to hide from the Sacred Army, they encounter Luca, another Reyvateil who has known Croix since childhood.Croix is soon to discover that neither the Grand Bell nor the Sacred Army are what they seem- and nor are Cloche or Luca. Unable to trust anyone except each other (and sometimes not even that), he and his companions struggle along their own path to thwart those who would manipulate them, discover the truth about the Goddess Frelia, and achieve the seven hundred year old dream of Metafalica.A manga adaptation exists.A retranslation patch of a new translation was completed in December 29th, 2016.Being as this is the page for the second installment, more general series tropes go on the EXA_PICO page.

Darker and Edgier: Compared to the first game, there are a lot more aggressive and domineering characters running around trying to get their way, which tends to involve nearly ending the world in any number of ways, which is not helped at all by the fact that Sol Ciel (the first game's setting) was left in a far better shape after the Grathnode Inferia than Metafalss is. Jakuri, who is familiar with the events of the first game, is amused by the contrasts between the casts.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything? Diving is frequently compared implicitly and explicitly to sex, to the point where a Dive therapy shop is likened to a brothel. However, if customers actually treat Dive Therapists like that, they're generally given permanent bans from Dive Shops. Further, after Croix Dives into Cloche Luca gets sulky about Cloche taking his "virginity" and saying she hadn't let anyone Dive into her apart from her job because she wanted it to be special for her too. Part of this was due to NISA's localization, as the equating to sex wasn't as hamfisted or prevalent in the original script. Third Generation Reyvateils need a life extending crystal plugged into their Install Port, a special conduit that only Reyvateils have, because they die if they go beyond three months without it. While it seems that the problem is the size of the crystal, it has nothing to do with it: the Reyvateils scream in pain due to the crystal dissolving into its component waves (ie: they have something akin to a nuclear fission right on their skin) and being absorbed by the Port to end up in their minds, making them feel as if they were being given a particularly painful injection and also having their minds suffering a tremendous shock during the Install, so it'd hurt the same no matter how small the crystal was. Unfortunately, it tends to be treated and sound like a couple having sex for the first time.

Little Miss Badass: Cocona from Metafalica manages to push this to its limits. Wielding her concealed baton and roundhouse kicks, and an occasional magic attack, as her weapons, she not only fights on the front lines, but bodily protects the Reyvateils who are twice her mass and age in spite of actually BEING a Reyvateil herself. Her EX attack involves creating a laser blade from her baton.

comment
In the Name of the Moon: For the first five levels of Jakuri's Cosmosphere, Luca, Cloche and Croix's memories are temporarily taken away while they act out Jacqli's script. Whenever Luca and Cloche turn into magical girls they give cheesy speeches while even with mind alterations Croix still refuses to do it except for the very last time where he's becoming subconsciously aware that this isn't just the game Jakuri is pretending it is. It's fitting considering Jakuri/Mir was also the creator of Shurelia's "Cosmosphere" in the first game. There, Shurelia does it.

Anticlimax: After Jacqli takes the Heart of the Land produced by and made of Cloche/Luca's soul, the party tracks her down while she continually flees and occasionally has her robot dog stall you for time. You finally reach her as she completes some unknown ritual using the Heart of the Land, only for it to fail, prompting her to hand it over without any fuss the moment Croix asks for it.

comment
Headbutting Heroes: A lot of party members just don't like each other. Sometimes it gets better and sometimes it doesn't. In the case of vanguards and reyvateils, it can have a big effect on gameplay: Pairing up two characters who dislike each other is a bad idea. Leglius and Amarie fight constantly. At first glance it's because she's an obvious spy, but it turns out she actually just reminds Leglius of his deceased daughter and he's worried about her but awful at getting it across. When she's not around he'll admit he doesn't think she's going to betray them but is only hostile because she's keeping secrets when she has no reason. Reisha eventually tells him to stop being an idiot and show some of the concern he feels if he wants her to open up. By the end, they have a sort of father/daughter relationship. Luca and Cloche also don't get along until the end which is a big problem when the strength of their relationship is necessary to the survival of the world. It takes until around act four before their relationship is finally smoothed out and includes several attempts to outright kill each other before that happens. Finally, other vanguard/reyvateil pairs also have low compatibility and the relationships here never improve enough to affect gameplay like it does with Cocona and Jakuri/Cloche. For example, Luca is jealous of Cocona, who dislikes her in turn while Cloche initially considers Amarie both flaky and untrustworthy.

Kill Sat: The ultimate Song Magic uses their Song Servers* Luca summons a smiting beam of light from Sol Marta, Cloche does the same with Infel Phira with multiple smaller beams in Metafalica form, while Jakuri relays a massive torrent of energy from Ar tonelico through a satellite as this. Replekia is depicted as this as well, as it was fired twice throughout the story. The in-game battle system depicts it as a Song magic amplifier, though.

Bilingual Bonus: The Hymmnos songs are not just gibberish. If you know the language or, more reasonably, have the translated lyrics you can see what is actually being sung about or sometimes even simply talked about. For example, Jakuri calls Croix a thief before taking the Heart of the Land and leading him on a chase around the Rim because it agreed to go with her, not him, when she spoke to it in Hymmnos. The party just assumes she made it mad and caused it to attack you.

Awesome, but Impractical: By maxing the Psych gauge enough times, you can trigger a Synchronity Chain. Apart from giving you free action time, it also opens up powerful combo magic. However, it's not even available until act 3, requires combat to go on for quite a few rounds, requires a high relationship between the two Reyvateils and in the end still isn't as powerful as just using Replakia, which only requires maxing out harmonics, something you do anyway and making it available by the second round of combat. Plus, once the combo magic has been activated, it will unleash itself automatically.

Lethal Chef: Both Luca and Cloche play this dead straight; poor Croix. In fairness to Jakuri, her cooking is a crapshoot. Half her food is a weapon of mass destruction, but the other half makes up some of the best food/healing items in the game. So what if it was supposed to be a cake, it's still really good sushi! Compared to the other girls, you at least stand a good probability of surviving her meals. Additionally, anything that is actually toxic at least looks the part.

Break the Cutie: Poor Jakuri. The trauma that underpinned her Big Bad status in the previous game is revealed. Even though Cloche didn't go to such extremes, it shows when you figure out why her Cosmosphere's so messed up... At the very beginning we are shown how five year old Luca loses her younger sister and her father and it turns out this one event was the root of Luca's twisted mind, self-hatred and guilt. It didn't help that Reisha became distant and cold towards Luca when the latter needed Reisha the most. The concept of IPD is a breakdown of cute girls who more or less get sent into some kind of prison/therapy/mistreatment just like how it's shown in the prologue, demonstrated by Croix himself, and what happens to Cocona when she goes berserk.

Long Song, Short Scene: Hibernation. Although it's fourteen minutes long, it's extremely unlikely you'll hear half of it unless you intentionally idle. On the other hand, it overrides the normal battle music, and so, it's easy to hear it to then end before getting to the next plot point where it gets replaced by normal event music.

Luminescent Blush: Jakuri gets this surprisingly frequently and it's done hilariously at the end of her Cosmosphere. Normally, it involves a "marriage" ceremony with a speech. Jakuri breaks the rules and has Ayatane forgo this because it's embarrassing (whilst blushing), and her "Costume Get" image, normally with a default expression, has her blushing while rolling her eyes. Tsundere much?

Divided We Fall
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_56d5b88f
comment
Divided We Fall: The Sacred Army and Grand Bell are both fundamentally wrong since you need both maidens. The Sacred Army tries to assassinate Cloche outright while the Grand Bell is secretly looking for the other Maiden, Luca, to perform Metafalica properly, but to make up for that moment of competence they also declare war on the goddess, who is the only thing keeping Metafalss from falling into the Sea of Death, and they also force Luca to sing only the EXEC part of Metafalica, which is doomed to fail without the METHOD part.

Really 700 Years Old: Frelia and Jakuri look all of about fifteen, but are far older than they look being an Origin and a Pureblooded Beta respectively. Mind you, despite being born centuries ago Jakuri would not have been capable of aging for most of that time given that she was locked in stasis as Mir.

Amarie - By far the biggest offender, she normally has what looks like tonfa or maybe short-swords, but then puts the two halves together, and can turn it into a bow firing what appears to be laser arrows (and in the EX attack, these arrows are supposed to travel faster than light), then she flips it around the other way, and suddenly, she has a lyre, and can hit the enemy with a Brown Note attack!

However, she's not innocent in the slightest, as she revels in taunting Croix by offering to remove her clothing or something equally enticing (like a ribbon and nothing else).

Interface Screw: In theory, with good timing you could defeat any enemy in the game that does not have a healing skill so long as you hit a perfect guard every time you're attacked, even if you're only at level one. Getting perfect guard only gets easier when you've unlocked fan club members with Guard +++ or Guard ++++ for Girl Power. However, to keep you from blocking attacks that the game wants you to get hit by they'll often move the attack meter from where you're used to looking, make it shake violently or give distracting lights in the background to make it more difficult to tell when you're supposed to guard.

Improbable Weapon User: Croix - While fairly plausible (a spear with a massive guard to act as a shield with a machine gun mounting), it has rocket boosters on one end that he uses for his EX attack. Leglius - Equipped with what can best be described as a "Chainsaw Yo-Yo" that are the size of shields. Cocona - Equipped with a pair of hair ornaments that are also chakram-like weapons and metamorph into a bladed staff by materializing a stick between the two... somehow. Shun - He's a big robot wolf, so naturally, he attacks with... his horn-like blades and being able to jump and spin like Sonic the Hedgehog. Amarie - By far the biggest offender, she normally has what looks like tonfa or maybe short-swords, but then puts the two halves together, and can turn it into a bow firing what appears to be laser arrows (and in the EX attack, these arrows are supposed to travel faster than light), then she flips it around the other way, and suddenly, she has a lyre, and can hit the enemy with a Brown Note attack!

 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_6a85e9e1
comment
Dub-Induced Plot Hole: The NIS America translation implies that Reika killed Croix's parents, where in reality she had nothing to do with that incident. Croix's mother suffered from an IPD outbreak and it caused her to go insane and kill her husband, while she herself died in the destruction she caused. This explains why the characters never bring it up or hold Cloche accountable for it. This is one of the errors that were fixed in the relocalization project.

Croix is raised in the house of Reisha alongside Luca. Even though, for some odd reason, he's never officially adopted despite being a 4-year-old orphan, that still makes Croix and Luca more than just "childhood friends" by any reasonable count. The game very specifically never tries to mention this, probably to avoid a downplayed Brothersister Incest.

All Genes Are Codominant: Female children inheriting the Reyvateil genes will awaken to those powers roughly around the onset of puberty even if they can't use them properly yet. However, they're weaker and shorted lived than their Beta Reyvateil ancestors. Additionally, having the genes doesn't necessarily guarantee becoming a Reyvateil, as it's stated that Reyvateils are rarer than normal humans.

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Infel, who was driven by the pain of losing Nenesha to find a way to eliminate all unhappiness... Too bad her method, Sublimation, happened to be an Assimilation Plot. And there's also the fact that it wasn't even her fault that the Metafalica attempt she did with Nenesha was a failure: it was all because most of the IPDs at the time refused to cooperate with her when they looked inside her mind and ended up hating everything they saw about her, so they just stopped singing when she needed them the most.

Hive Queen: Cloche becomes this after Reine starts the fan club, though Reine deserves honorary mention since she's the head of the club and Cloche is the focus of it. While the Cloche has a minor mental connection to the IPDs that allows them to feel each others' emotions to a certain extent, she can't consciously control them.

Spell My Name with an S
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_89a17726
comment
Spell My Name With An S: Several character names were changed from the original Japanese release. Croix and Cloche, as opposed to Chroah and Chroche, are based on French words and thus probably should have been like that to begin with, though according to developer commentary, Cloche's original name was based off the word "crochet", and there's also the fact that French doesn't exist as a language in Ar Ciel. Things like Nenesha as opposed to Nenesya reflect standard romanization schemes, so again, pretty much standard. Jakuri became Jacqli as a nonsensical stylistic choice that clashes with the fact the name actually belongs to the robot she pilots, which is lampshaded by Croix's comment on her profile that her name sounds strange and unfemminine. "Cloche" means "bell" in French. The Grand Bell Holy Maiden's name is a direct translation of "bell" in another language. Luca's last name (Truelywaath) became Trulyworth at the expense of some symbolism using the Hymmnos language and a bilingual pun made in Hymmnos and English. Other names simply changed altogether, such as Sincere becoming Cynthia.

Taking the Bullet: Depending on which route you're on, either Cloche or Luca will push the other out of the way of a lightning bolt. It doesn't kill them despite first appearances, but it does necessitate going to a world constructed out of fragments of their psyche and memories and making the other person feel terrible about judgments they made about their savior. Later played straight with Reisha, who took a lethal blast from Raki to defend Luca.

Foreshadowing: A lot of plot points are put in metaphorical language during the Cosmospheres, which you are very likely to have already explored by the time you get that far in the game. For example, Cloche's conflict with the Alfman restaurant owner in competition with Luca's restaurant is pretty clearly representing that Cloche hates the job she has to do and the choices she has to support on Alfman's part. Luca offers the people something new and naturally the people all go to her instead of the harsh, limited government provided by Alfman. Fauxshadow: During an early cutscene, just after you team up with Leglius, with Cloche pointedly standing behind him, while Cocona stands behind you, in a similar alignment to a knight and their Reyvateil partner, with Cocona dropping several hints to potentially being one. Moments later, Leglius tells you to flee, and Cocona never partners with Croix. It's not until the next game that she awakens her Song Magic...

Jakuri also uses Viruses from the first game - her creations as the Mother Virus, Mir - for some of her song magic. A monster called a Nyo? shows up briefly in Metafalica; aside from that, they were only in Elemia.

Half-Human Hybrid The half-Teru Amarie, Chester, and Sonia. In a sense, almost all currently living Reyvateils and everyone directly related to them are only part Reyvateil. Origin and Beta Reyvateils were constructed as part of the Project Reyvateil and live longer than humans, indefinitely in the case of the Origin Reyvateils. However, betas are capable of reproducing, but their descendants will get sick and die without regular treatment and even then only live to around forty or so.

And You Thought It Was a Game
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_a3df8e61
comment
And You Thought It Was a Game: The cosmosphere is supposed to be a look at the inner world and emotional conflicts of a reyvateil, but Jacqli presents hers to Croix as a game and allows him, Luca and Cloche to fulfill three of the main roles for what amounts to her magical girl fanfiction. It's the same idea as Luca's dive therapy, but much more impressive. However, the NPC Alfman Omega and the author avatars of Miros and Miwa all stray from their intended behaviors at times and "Kuroaki" starts hearing crack sounds in stage three as the stage begins to break down. By level five, it's clear that the story is a metaphor for Jacqli's internal struggles after all and her control over the world can't extend any deeper into her mind. Even the player sees the world as though looking through a broken window. The story ends there and to progress further Croix has to commit to her and enter her true, unaltered cosmosphere, which still uses the same setting as Jacqli's story.

 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e

Infinity +1 Sword: In this case, Infinity+1 Spell, which would be the Phantasmagoria Song Magic. It tops off rather spectacularly Jakuri's spell list (that's already the strongest of the three available Reyvateils) by getting Misha, Aurica and Shurelia to join in a Combination Attack to the tune of an arrangement of the first game's end credits song. Getting it requires to reach endgame and complete Frelia's Binary Field.

Superpower Meltdown: Reyvateil magic is strongly linked to emotions, so when an IPD infection causes their emotions to run out of control, their superpowers similarly go haywire. At the beginning of the game, you see Reika captured after an outbreak.

Dysfunctional Family: The Trulywaaths. Luca's father died fifteen years ago, her little sister was taken and she has a terrible relationship with her mother due to Reisha being distant and cold for years out of her fear of getting too attached to her adopted daughter because she knew she'd be taken away, except she never was. Reisha probably didn't realise how much pain this caused to Luca since it contributed to further increase her guilt and self-hatred to the point her mind got twisted. Luca became obsessed with finding her lost little sister Reika thinking that's the only way to fix her family's situation because whatever she tried previously didn't work. When an IPD tells her sister probably died years ago, Luca loses it.

Lost in Translation: Infel repeatedly makes bad puns. However, these were translated literally for the North American release, which turns Croix's responses into strange non sequiturs. There's the pun regarding Skycat's name. In the original, she's called Soraneko (while working, anyway), which literally does translate to Skycat. However, Croix mistakenly calling her Seacat loses its humor if you don't know the Japanese equivalent, Umineko, is actually (despite the literal meaning) the term for a type of seagull.

Demoted to Extra: Luca gets the short end of the stick in Frelia's Binary Field story, showing up once with little plot relevance. She lampshades this in a talk. Same goes for both Luca and Cloche in Jakuri's Cosmosphere story as they're playing the "heroines of justice" bit but end up shafted because the story is centered on the Dark Magical Girl.

Timed Mission
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_bb48f8ba
comment
Timed Mission: Not defined ingame as such, but due to a bug involving an incorrect calling index being set for a skill that was apparently overlooked by the QA staff in the US release (and, mind you, patchers came up with just a few lines of code that corrected this), the last fight (and the subsequent optional boss battles) against Raki have a time limit of three turns - on the sixth action of the boss (usually the third round), the game tries to call up an attack with an index far higher than any other skill and that makes it land on a section of the game's program code long after where the skill data is stored and which is completely blank, which causes it to crash if she has more than 20% of her HP. Otherwise, she merely tries to use her ultimate attack against you. This makes it nigh impossible to win later battles (in which the boss gains more HP and stat buffs) and the Last Lousy Point. Mercifully, this is corrected in the EU release, though it seems very unlikely that it will ever see resolution in the US.

Non-Standard Game Over: In-Universe even! If Croix enters Frelia's cosmosphere and takes the option to succumb to Reisha's temptations, they hook up and live happily ever after. The story ends and Frelia sulks that she didn't even appear despite being the heroine. Croix can get basically the same bad end in the third level and it's still a happy ending, but this time a sulky Frelia calls Croix a pervert.

I Will Wait for You Croix made what amounts to a Childhood Marriage Promise with Luca who agrees to wait until he's a full fledged knight and he comes to take her to Pastalia. However, this was mostly part of her long term plan to infiltrate Pastalia's higher security areas to look for Reika and the relationship is called off before act one even ends. In the default ending, Croix says he will wait for Coccona to return from her journey to the third tower.

Supporting Protagonist: The game follows Croix's actions but his only connection to the plot is his relationship to Luca and Cloche. The plot revolves around them as they save the world; Croix just protects them while they do it. This is acknowledged in the Opening theme, where the girls sing a duet and he's a mere cameo.

Beyond the Impossible: Justified near the end of the game. The game likes to mention how only one person at a time can dive into a reyvateil with two person dives a big deal that only the most skilled therapist can perform. Jakuri says Frelia can handle four people at once. Everyone shouts how impossible this and normally this would be the case but Jakuri reminds them that Frelia is a goddess and so can handle it easily. Croix' response is pretty much "oh yeah....I forgot...". That said, they're not actually Diving into her Cosmosphere due to it being impossible to handle by modern Dive Machines, but into her section of the Binary Field instead.

What the Hell, Hero?: In the prologue Croix is containing an I.P.D. outbreak which involves defeating a reyvateil. After the battle, the reyvateil's mother comes out and chews him out for it. "Slave of the Grand Bell!"

The End of the World as We Know It
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_d71d51fd
comment
The End of the World as We Know It It nearly happens three times. First, there's the threat of Frelia running out of power to keep the Rim afloat which will ultimately happen no matter if Metafalica is succesful or not. Second, there's the Hibernation plan, an Assimilation Plot to upload everyone into Infel Phira since Metafalss is almost unsalvageable. Finally, Sublimation, which would convert all the people in Sol Ciel and Metafalss into a Will of the Planet. It also happened off screen before the game begins: one time because of the massive power consumption that Infel and Nenesha's failed Metafalica caused, and after that, when Raki halved Sol Marta's power output in response to Shurelia using Suspend in the first game. Both of these events caused several sections of the Rim to collapse.

Chekhov's Gunman: Quite a few. Gengoro/Nenesha and Infel, who were first introduced as Mind Guardians. Later it was eventually revealed that Gengoro had shapeshifted into Nenesha while Infel simply resided in Cloche's Cosmosphere as a pseudo-Mind Guardian, eventually serving as the final bosses in the game. Luca was first introduced as Croix's long-distance girlfriend and Reisha's adoptive daughter. It turns out that she is the Goddess Maiden. Leyka is Reisha's long-lost daughter who had been kidnapped when she displayed IPD symptoms at a very young age, and was presumed to be dead near the end of the Phase 1. It turns out the current Maiden of Mio who has been instated as Lady Cloche is none other than Leyka herself. Amarie, whose introduced as a mysterious follower and becomes a party member.

Croix made what amounts to a Childhood Marriage Promise with Luca who agrees to wait until he's a full fledged knight and he comes to take her to Pastalia. However, this was mostly part of her long term plan to infiltrate Pastalia's higher security areas to look for Reika and the relationship is called off before act one even ends.

 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b
comment
Gameplay and Story Integration The "link" system indicates a Reyvateil's affinity with their guard and how well they can work together. It's reliant on personal interactions and as such pairs like Cocona and Luca are bad because Cocona dislikes Luca and Luca is jealous of her in turn while Cocona and Cloche get along quite well in their tastes and have great affinity as a result. Further, the links can change as the story advances: Luca and Croix start with a good ranking while Cocona and Jakuri start out at normal, but Luca's affinity drops after you're through the tutorial part of the game when she breaks up with him while Cocona's goes up when Jakuri learns she's a Reyvateil. Your view of Jakuri's Cosmosphere begins to fragment and crumble as Jakuri slowly loses control of the situation, which culminates in her telling Croix that it's not safe to continue diving in her.

Not Blood Siblings: If you do not progress past Level 5 in anyone's cosmosphere in Metafalica, Croix gets paired with Cocona, his adopted sister. Croix is raised in the house of Reisha alongside Luca. Even though, for some odd reason, he's never officially adopted despite being a 4-year-old orphan, that still makes Croix and Luca more than just "childhood friends" by any reasonable count. The game very specifically never tries to mention this, probably to avoid a downplayed Brothersister Incest.

Simple, yet Awesome: You can jump through a bunch of hoops to line up a Synchronity Chain and get a bit of free action time and evolve your magic into combo spells, or you can just play completely normally, max Harmonics and use Replekia. With a decent number of fan club members it's both far easier to pull off in a battle and far more powerful. Even the general effect of each is pretty telling: A Synchronity Chain is aligning the psyches of the two reyvateils enough that they cast and think in sync to achieve greater results. Replekia is just turning on a gigantic Kill Sat and nuking everything.

Puberty Superpower
 Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica (Video Game) / int_ecf510f4
comment
Puberty Superpower: Not explicit, but Reyvateils tend have their powers awaken right at the start of puberty, though there are rare exceptions that are considered freak accidents like with Reika as a toddler, or one ancient Maiden who awakened at one year old. Cocona, at ten or eleven, has an IPD outbreak immediately after awakening, causing a nasty double shock for Croix. Also, it doesn't come with the usual mastering that you might expect: Most spells have to be individually crafted for each Reyvateil, which requires either a lot of time for them to sort out the necessary feelings to craft the songs, a strong shock or epiphany, or undergo Diving with a partner. Diving with children is a terrible idea due to the fact their Cosmospheres don't get stabilized into actual worlds until they reach 13 years in age (high risk of dying for both people involved if they dare to attempt such a Dive), nor something that would be palatable to most people, given how most people take the intimacy and trust required for Diving as being a direct metaphor for sex. Therefore, at best Cocona can just use really weak basic spells to supplement her melee or channel a raw burst of power into her combos as her EX attack.

Dark and Troubled Past: Mir/Jakuri and Cloche; both of them suffer abuse from their creators/bosses and the later was kidnapped from her family to make it happen. Luca qualifies as well; the events of the childhood and the environment she grew up into lead to her turning into a manipulative liar.

Fauxshadow: During an early cutscene, just after you team up with Leglius, with Cloche pointedly standing behind him, while Cocona stands behind you, in a similar alignment to a knight and their Reyvateil partner, with Cocona dropping several hints to potentially being one.
