The second entry in the Grandia series, Grandia II was the only game developed by Game Arts for the Sega Dreamcast. Originally released in 2000, it received PlayStation 2 and Windows ports two years later. The game received its English localization from Ubisoft.The plot kicks off when Ryudo, a rude-but-experienced mercenary, is hired by the Church of Granas to act as a bodyguard to one of their most valuable nuns: Elena, a young and idealistic songstress. She is taking part in a ritual to renew the seal on one of the pieces of an evil fallen god.Unfortunately, something goes awry with the ritual and Elena is possessed by the evil fragment, which manifests itself as a saucy split personality calling herself Millenia. With the destruction of the seal, the other "Pieces of Valmar" around the world have gotten loose, and both Ryudo and Elena are tasked with tracking them down.Naturally, it's not quite as simple as that, and the game mostly deals with a deconstruction of Black-and-White Morality.Grandia II's most notable aspects are the battle system: A refinement of the battle system from the original and the benchmark for successful merging of real-time and turn-based battle. And the music. Particularly the battle themes. Yes, the battle system was so popular that the next game was almost entirely built around it (with less-than-stellar results).A PC remaster of the Dreamcast version, Grandia II: Anniversary Edition, was released on August 24, 2015. The re-release includes remastered visuals, a new harder difficulty, and dual audio option. On August 16, 2019, the remaster was updated further with support for widescreen and also released for the Nintendo Switch. | |

Religion of Evil | |

Religion of Evil: In the old days, Valmar had followers of his own. Their descendants founded the kingdom of Cyrum, where they cultivated a margarita-soaked party-image to conceal their shameful legacy. Though if you pay close attention this was more like a Religion of Chaos. | |

Deal with the Devil | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_1fc8335e | comment |
Deal with the Devil: Now here is a tragic character. Sandra is one of the most kind-hearted women in town, raising a blind daughter by herself and growing herbs in the hope of curing her condition. Unfortunately she's disliked by several characters. She prayed fervently for her daughter's sight to be restored. When Aira is possessed by Valmar's Eye, the little girl believes that Granas gave it to her, and is very proud of her uniqueness. This causes a curse to fall on the town. That's the last straw for the villagers, who finger Sandra as the witch who is responsible for the sleep plague. Similarly, Aira's one wish was for everyone in the world to stop fighting and love one another. The King of Cyrum grew weary of showing penance for the crimes of his ancestors, and sought to reclaim his kingdom's "pride" by becoming a military power again. Melfice nearly unleashes Valmar's machines on the kingdom to destroy it — and reaps the King's soul once he fails. | |

So Long, and Thanks for All the Gear: Notably averted with Mareg's death; you even get all of his skill coins back. Played straight with Millenia and Elena, though they switch out so often that it's almost a non-issue. They don't take accessories or Mana Eggs, though. Roan leaves the group for an extended period, taking his loot with him. He later rejoins to fill the void left by Mareg. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Justin's cap and goggles make an appearance. You can spot them in dungeon maps as lightweight helmet icons. The "Mogay Bomb" is one of Grandia II's many throwable weapons. Its namesake, of course, is Guido's species from the original Grandia. The previous Grandia's battle music can be heard while arm-wrestling Hemble. The deck-swabbing music plays during the Nanan village minigame. And the main vocal theme “Cancao de Povo� is the slow portion of “the Theme of Grandia� from the first game, with lyrics added At one point during Ryudo's test of character, he's flung down a bottomless pit with Skye flapping nearby, snarky as ever. This calls to mind a similar scene in Grandia, where Justin and Feena bicker as they're falling into a volcano. | |

Gravity Screw: The latter half of Aira's dreamspace resembles someone's backyard, except with the picket fence and trees bending at impossible angles.

Fantastic Drug | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_2cd22076 | comment |
Fantastic Drug: "Silvervine Moss" is apparently the equivalent of catnip to Beastmen. The village elder sends Ryudo and Elena into a pit of slimy moss, just so the whole village can revel in the SMELL of the stuff. They can't go themselves, because the scent of the pit robs Beastmen of their will to leave. | |

Talking in Your Sleep | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_2d6c0bce | comment |
Talking in Your Sleep: Thanks to the massive amount of flavor text in the game, you can track Mirumu's sleep victims as Valmar drains their life force. First they're confused, then they start imagining themselves as fairies in a garden, and suddenly they're chatting and giggling amongst the others like a drunken man. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: In any version other than the Dreamcast's, there is a bug during the Hopeless Boss Fight against Millenia. The battle is scripted to end after she casts the "Zap!" spell on Ryudo, but she can get caught in an AI loop that causes her to -never- use it. This bug is usually triggered by speaking to the tutorial guy inside the item shop, and thus avoidable. Additionally, Millenia's Zap! ability may cause the game to freeze. In the Steam version, the game may crash after winning a battle. | |

You Shall Not Pass! | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_3b0479f2 | comment |
You Shall Not Pass!: The grand finale is a race to stop Valmar from conquering the last refuge, Cyrum. Everything else has been nuked already. Eventually, he does consume Cyrum along with much of its citizenry, forcing Roan to funnel his people toward the royal mausoleum for safety. This is the last "town" of the game, and where the final war will be waged. During the climatic scene on the moon, the party is surrounded by the Valmar's hatchlings, their escape vehicle is low on energy and the horde is closing in. Mareg orders his friends to run, then creates a choke point between the baddies and the ship. Just before he's overwhelmed, he makes a prayer to Granas, who is a) a god he doesn't believe in, and b) a god who has been dead for thousands of years, to deliver his friends to safety. It works. Before the final battle, a chasm separates Roan and Tio from the rest of the party, forcing them to go it alone against Valmar's insectoids. This means they're left with no path of escape when Vamlar's body starts to crumble (in space). Tio activates some sort of shield around her body and grabs Roan, protecting both of them as they drift down toward the planet. | |

Sealed Evil in a Six Pack | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_44440354 | comment |
Sealed Evil in a Six Pack: The game gave us Valmar, the Big Bad demon that was defeated in ancient times, and the pieces of its body spread around the world and sealed away. Interestingly, each of the pieces has a mind of its own — none lay claim to being the original. The Church of Granas sends Elena on a quest to gather the pieces so they may be destroyed, though it turns out that Pope Zera, who has discovered that God Is Dead and believes that life has no meaning without him, actually wants to become the new Valmar himself so he can destroy the world. | |

Would Hurt a Child: The Eye's possession of Aira. This is a wakeup call for Ryudo, who realizes Valmar is indiscriminate in its possession. According to Millenia, Valmar feeds on all desire — good and bad. One of the grave markers at Garlan Island belongs to Sasha, a little girl who couldn't believe that Melfice would turn evil. She trusted him until the end. | |

Sealed Evil in a Can | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_485eb589 | comment |
Sealed Evil in a Can: The "Seals of Granas" imprisoning Valmar's body parts — only one is intact by the time you discover it, but it gets released almost immediately anyway. It later turns out the "seals" weren't built by Granas at all (who was dead) and were never intended to seal away Valmar, rather hibernate the parts until they were ready to be placed into a human host. Cyrum Castle is built atop a centuries-old factory that produces automata soliders. It was created by Valmar's followers during the war with Granas. | |

But Thou Must! | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: When Ryudo activates the "seal of Granas," which just injects his soul into the consciousness of Valmar, he is forced to answer three questions about whether he desires power. However, if he says that he desires it, he is told that that is not his real opinion, and must answer again. Which is kinda weird, since after answering all the questions 'properly', the inner voice explains to you why your answers do mean that you want the power. Are you trying to confuse us, game? This is just Valmar's attempt to corrupt Ryudo's soul. | |

Yin-Yang Bomb: The ultimate message of the game is that good and evil must coexist.

Hammered home in the Boss Rush, where the platforms take the shape of yin-yang symbols. | |

| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_58d31a8b | comment |
Body Motifs: Valmar's parts inflict side-effects on their hosts, as well as on surrounding villages. The Tongue reduces Gaden to a corpulent money-grubber, and robs people of their sense of taste; the Eye grants Aira the gift of sight, but also invades people's dreams with their darkest memories; the Horns turn the peace-loving Melfice into a bloodthirsty killer; the Heart fills Selene with an abundant love for Pope Zera, but zero compassion for everyone else. The Claws don't do anything, apart from turning Tio into a Dalek. Perhaps because she isn't human? (Also, since it's theorised that Melfice is responsible for them being there, they may not have been there long enough to have an residual area effect) | |

Devil, but No God | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_59fe174d | comment |
Devil, but No God: Notice that Valmar directly causes several plot elements, while Granas doesn't do much? As it turns out, Granas is long-dead, while Valmar is merely dormant — ironic, since the church espouses a doctrine saying that the opposite is true. But then again, neither are gods in the first place. | |

The heroes are able to breathe, fight, and even sprint across the surface of Valmar's Moon (though it isn't a moon so much as Satan's Womb In Space). Heck, after Pope Zera/Valmar is defeated, the three heroes other than Roan and Tio are in space, having a very lengthy discussion about what happens next, let alone breathe, before flying off. | |

Spanner in the Works: Ryudo, as his absorption of the Horns of Valmar earlier in the story means that the Big Bad is one MacGuffin short of a full hand. Though really Millenia deserves that title for sealing the Horns into Ryudo in the first place rather than absorbing them as she was expected to. Then again, it was Ryudo and the gang who somewhat treated Millenia as a person instead of as a devil and managed to get her to start feeling human emotions, including love, which caused her to be able to resist her demonic impulses. | |

News Travels Fast: The self-proclaimed "Trade King" of St. Heim, who is unaware of a) the collapse of the Skyway into the Granacliffs (courtesy of you), and b) Liligue's curse being lifted, meaning that its citizens no longer have any appetite for the "King's" disgusting arum root. | |

Never Sleep Again | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_625031f0 | comment |
Never Sleep Again: Mirumu's got an issue. Townsfolk are going to sleep one night, and never waking up. One night, upon being woken from a nightmare, Ryudo manages to catch the culprit in the act: a flock of Eyeball Bats, floating through peoples' windows and latching to their faces. | |

Heroic Sacrifice | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: During the heroes' flight from the surface of Valmar's moon, they get attacked by waves of extremely weak mooks and a couple of tanky Sub Bosses until Mareg is inexplicably struck in the back by a flying insect's tusk. Of course those mooks are very weak. With the right setup of skills it's possible to cut damage done down to single digits while using Millena's healing abilities to heal far more then that. It's hard to feel threatened by mooks when the party could take on 3 times as many at once and still walk out of every fight at full strength. Thus the whole scene can easily feel like a Stupid Sacrifice due to Gameplay and Story Segregation. | |

Fighting from the Inside: Ryudo raising his sword at Elena while possessed by Valmar's Horn - only to resist at the last moment and collapse. Under the command of her clone, Tio undergoes a "repair" procedure to turn her against her friends. With Mareg's reassurance, Tio shakes off her programming; she is her own master now. | |

| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_653fdd53 | comment |
Shaped Like What It Sells: From the Wiki: "The landmass upon which Mirumu is built was once the sea floor, which was raised above sea level during the formation of the Granacliffs. As a result, many of the village structures are made from shells and other remnants from the ocean floor. In addition, the area cannot grow suitable lumber for construction, hence the widespread use of stone." This explains why some of the furnishings and pathways (and some of the equipment for sale) are of seashell or fish bone construction. | |

Stealth-Based Mission: The Bonus Dungeon appears to be set up this way. The demons are incredibly overpowered and give a measly amount of XP, but they move in predictable patterns and have a very limited line of sight. It's far easier to just avoid them and nab the loot than to fight your way through. | |

That's No Moon: The voyage to Garlan Island is halted when Elena complains of seasickness. The group parks their boat at Ceceile Reef, where Ryudo remarks on all the giant stones lying about. Little do they realize (though it's readily apparent by the time they wake up) those weren't stones... Those were giant crab eggs. Literally with Valmar's Moon, as it's an organic body. | |

Knight of Cerebus | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_6a47a1e2 | comment |
Knight of Cerebus: The story is not exactly a buddy comedy; nevertheless, the Eye of Valmar is the most sinister of the sealed bosses, using Ryudo's own memories against him. It's also the most difficult to thwart. Selene could also count as Elena's Knight of Cerebus. Melfice was probably intended as a more straight-up version of the trope. He's the key element in Ryudo turning away from his own avaricious past and slipping into a hero role. Interestingly, Melfice parrots the same cynicism his brother's been spouting all along. | |

Ryudo kills Melfice and absorbs his piece of Valmar. | |

A pack of Eyeball Bats function as a Trick Boss in the catacombs beneath Mirumu. Ryudo's not fooled, though; indeed, the root of the problem is Valmar's Eye, which is flanked by additional Eyeball Bats when you finally do fight it. | |

Shattered World | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_6c5e2f5f | comment |
Shattered World: The Granacliffs, as their name would suggest, are giant glowing fissures stretching across not only the Silesia continent but the entire world. They are said to have been created when Granas' sword struck through Valmar. Indeed, the Granasaber can be found at the center, with fissures radiating outward from it. We learn later that the sword is merely an aircraft; the crater was formed from Valmar's body when his shattered remains fell to earth. | |

Get on the Boat: When the party arrives in Liligue, they find the Skyway closed to regular passengers under new rules by the Skyway Manager Gadan. He reasons that a greater profit is to be made transferring cargo than passengers. Freeing him from Valmar leaves him in a comatose state, and the party is allowed to move on, riding the Skyway over the cliffs toward St. Heim. During their trip, Valmar's moon shines and the winds rise around the Skyway, breaking the cables and hurling the tram down into Lumir Forest. Capt. Bakala, the only man crazy enough to sail over the Granacliffs. He'll be your host during the voyage to Garland. | |

Once More, with Clarity: The opening cinematic depicts the showdown between Granas and Valmar, overlaid with heroic-sounding music as Granas blasts his rival to smithereens. When the scene is retold by Pope Zera, Granas is destroyed, leaving Valmar hovering triumphantly over the planet. Then, you see the scene one more time near the end of the game, where Elmo reveals that Granas and Valmar were never really gods to begin with, but ordinary mortals who had unlocked the ultimate powers of creation and destruction, respectfully. When Ryudo is forced to relive his memories of Melfice stabbing Reena, he discovers that Reena had been possessed by Valmar's Horn, which then transferred into Melfice when he killed her out of mercy. | |

Point of No Return | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_7ae4d273 | comment |
Point of No Return: There are three major points where all access to previous areas is completely cut off for the rest of the game (with a few exceptions). In the last third of the game or so, after finding the Granasaber, you go directly from dungeon to dungeon without looking back, so almost everything becomes a Point of No Return. The most significant items that can be Permanently Missable are the last two skill books and the last two mana eggs. | |

Played With: Players will notice that Millenia only joins your party when there's a major boss coming up. So, players may (correctly) feel that something is amiss when Elena is in your party for the battles against Melfice and the Heart of Valmar. | |

| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_7c36c716 | comment |
Angst Coma: Defeating Valmar's parts causes their human hosts to fall into an unshakable catatonia. (Their souls have been devoured.) At the end of the game, they each recover. | |

Fetch Quest: Refreshingly spare — but only due to most of the quests involving a piece of Valmar. In Agear, Ryudo gets roped into retracing Roan's whereabouts after the boy goes missing. It turns out that the whole middle portion of the game was really just the Big Bad manipulating your party to fetch the pieces of Valmar for him. | |

Go Wait Outside | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_7f49c2a3 | comment |
Go Wait Outside: The innkeeper at Mirumu begs the party off, saying she needs time to prepare a meal. This is a pretext for Ryudo to visit the end of town and speak with Aira's mother — though the game doesn't allow this until you've visited the inn first. Grumble... Played for Laughs when Elena, drowsy from the Cyrum festival, tells Ryudo to go fetch her a drink — only to be replaced by Millenia the moment she nods off. | |

Cooldown Manipulation | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_7fb91c0d | comment |
Cooldown Manipulation: The game uses a Combatant Cooldown System and every character has access to a "special" basic attack, which deals far less damage than the "combo" attack and the spells, but resets the target's global cooldown, potentially preventing them from acting at all. | |

Dug Too Deep: Liligue's problems started with Gadan complaining about the stone pillars rooted deep into the ground. Looking to excavate them, he instead unearthed the temple containing Valmar's Tongue and was possessed. Cyrum Castle sits atop an assembly line for robotic soldiers, used by Valmar's followers in the war. The King, who has chosen to embrace this legacy rather than live in shame, willingly breaks the lock on the factory. | |

Mareg grits his teeth and grins reassuringly after being fatally wounded by Valmar's younglings. Seconds later, he's mauled to death by the swarm. As she is devoured by Valmar, Millenia expresses happiness at experiencing love, even it it was for a short while. She gets better.) | |

Mr. Exposition: Father Carius is the friendly face of Carbo Village. When the party journeys to Liligue, they are aided by another, unnamed Priest who gives them the 4-11 on the town's troubles. Roan has a lot to say about Silesia and its culture, though most of it is explained over the dinner cutscenes (which are optional). Additionally, he gives Ryudo the lowdown on Cyrum Kingdom's past and their connection to Valmar. Elmo fills this role in The Birthplace of the Gods. In fact, it's her entire reason for being, which is why she's glued to a wall. | |

Defiant to the End: During Ryudo's inner battle with Valmar's Horns, Valmar tries to break him by conjuring up a demonic body for him. It fails, however; even as a unrecognizable beast, Ryudo still pledges to fight on. Also around the same time, Elena's leading the surviving town people who have gathered around the party in song - hopeful hymns at the end of the world. While also counting as this trope, it ultimately helps with Ryudo's own defiance against Valmar. | |

It turns out to be a spacecraft, not a sword at all, and then played straight at the end of the game when the hero actually does acquire a sword called the Granasaber, capable of harming the evil God. | |

Con Man | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_9919369d | comment |
Con Man: Roan makes fun of Gonzola when the latter offers a coin toss to determine whether they part ways. As Roan good-humoredly notes, it's a trick coin, and Gonzola would've let him go no matter what. Also, Ryudo, at least according to himself. | |

Seven Deadly Sins | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_99a7aa94 | comment |
Seven Deadly Sins: The world's equivalent of the devil is in seven parts, so we can expect those to make an appereance: The Wings/Millenia: Lust. One of her first actions is even to attempt to rape Ryudo. The Tongue: Gluttony. The Eye: Not from the piece/host itself, but the Villagers envied the good fortune of Aria & Sandra, when everyone else suffered from bad harvests. The Claws: Wrath. The Horns: Melfice outright says it: "I gave in to Valmar. No, to my own Greed" The Body: Sloth, as it did not move a bit during the entire level. Interestingly, Zera himself hits all the checkmarks for the more nuanced definition of Sloth, particularly mental sloth, as he doesn't do anything to try and fight Valmar once he learns the truth, instead giving up completely and resigning himself and all of humanity to a fate of destruction. The Heart: Pride. Selene, during her Motive Rant, explains at length how much she detests all other believers in Granas. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: A subtle form in the St. Heim Papal State. There are three official versions of the story of the Battle of Good and Evil. The first is a watered-down tale for children. The second, located in the library, is written in modern language and tells the story in slightly greater detail but skips over a lot of specifics. The third is written in highly obtuse and archaic poetic style, which makes it almost impossible to interpret, but a careful reading suggests That Granas did not win the battle. After Elena gets blitzed on some Kuko Berries, Ryudo notes that she 'ate enough berries to kill the Pope'. The game ends with Elena and company killing the Pope. | |

Elite Tweak | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_9f41fabe | comment |
Elite Tweak: A book teaching a taunt ability becomes available realtively early, when fully upgraded this ability causes all opponents to attack one ally. Equip this on a character and half them defend (which blocks far more then then 1/2 damage of most games) every turn and you have cut the total damage the team takes down to a fraction. Give the same character one or two two defensive abilities as well and watch even bosses do little more then Scratch Damage. If you forgo offensive skills temporarily to upgrade the taunt and toughness skill early it's easily possible to create a team that takes almost no damage within the first third of the game without any need for level grinding. After that the only problem is not getting bored with how easy the fights are. It's possible to take on any boss in the second half of the game game, including the Final Boss without casting a single heal, or using Elena's special ability, by equipping a tank and passing around health regeneration rings to heal what little damage is taken. A no magic no ability run is actually trivially easy without grinding once taunt and regen rings are available. | |

Evil Is Not a Toy: Averted with Pope Zera and Valmar. After reconstructing the evil god, Pope Zera successfully seizes control of it himself, gains access to its power, and suffers no ill effects. Of course, Zera was insane and evil to begin with, so it doesn't help the protagonists much at all. | |

Think Nothing of It: Cash is welcome, but your gratitude is not.

Everybody in Cyrum showers thanks on his majesty King Roan as he's wandering the town in the epilogue. Roan shrugs this off, since saving the world is no big deal. He's going to be one hell of a monarch. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_b77808f2 | comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: Just like the original, with the Tagalong Kid visiting old locations. In this case, it's Roan exploring the world to check in on everyone. Tio's become a nurse at a clinic, and gives Roan her pendant to leave at Mareg's grave. Millenia is now a teacher under Skye's watchful eye, and Elena is a minstrel of a travelling troupe. Ryudo, who is practically out of contact with everyone else, is Walking the Earth to put the Granasaber to rest. Despite this, Millenia and Elena assure Roan that Ryudo will return one day. | |

The Dark Side: Elena and Roan point out that Ryudo's psyche has been compromised by the deaths of Millenia and Mareg; he can't raise his sword against Valmar's monsters without the Horns of Valmar taking him over. Ultimately, Ryudo asks Elmo to remove the barrier Millenia placed on his soul, though he risks being possessed by Valmar, just like the previous hosts. Fortunately, Ryudo triumphs and his inner evil is extinguished for good. | |

Broken Bridge | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
Broken Bridge: The entire continent is split in half by a broken bridge — namely, the Granacliffs. According to the doctrine of the Granas Chruch, the fissures were formed by Granas' sword when it struck through Valmar. The greedy manager of the Skyway refuses to allow passengers aboard, preventing you from crossing the Granacliffs. Ryudo gets around this by, err... killing him. Practically lampooned in Raul Hills by having a main road which is severed by a broken bridge and (further down) a rockslide, necessitating a massive detour. | |

Mobile Menace: To reach Garland Island, Ryudo charters a ship and puts his own life in peril by surfing over the Granacliffs. Melfice still manages to beat him there, despite starting from the same location in Cyrum...? As soon as Ryudo finds the Granasaber buried in a pit, Selene pops up on the cliff above him! | |

Sugar Apocalypse | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_dab6a3a8 | comment |
Sugar Apocalypse: Once Aira is taken out of commission, the Garden of Dreams reverts back to a dead wasteland. The Cathedral Knights unexpectedly go on the march in Act 3, killing every last resident of St. Heim. A black ooze transforms the grassy hills into something reminiscent of Grail Mountain: black slime and spikes protruding from the earth — a mockery of the Granas Church and what it represented. Valmar, descending from on high, takes a big dump on the cathedral and melts it down into a new body. Gross. | |

Load-Bearing Boss | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_e4cf1ef0 | comment |
Load-Bearing Boss: Defeating the Core causes Valmar's Body to start collapsing. Millenia negates this by absorbing the Body in the same manner as Valmar's other parts, leaving the party to awaken in an empty field. Once Valmar's Eye is beaten, the plug is pulled from the Garden of Dreams, and the townsfolk awaken from their slumber. Ironically, now only Aira is stuck in a state of permanent sleep. Killing the Final Boss of the game (Pope Zera) results in New Valmar tearing itself apart from the inside. Also, the Granacliffs fill up to the brim with seawater, allowing for free travel and commerce for the first time ever. | |

Light Is Not Good | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_e543a655 | comment |
Light Is Not Good: Contrary to its name, the Church of Granas turns out to be helping to revive Valmar. The Pope could actually be said to be much more evil than Valmar, as he seeks to absorb Valmar's power in the same manner as Millenia and make himself a replacement for the long-dead Granas. Mareg's religion doesn't believe in complete evil or good (much to Elena's consternation) and is proven correct when the "real" history of the gods is shown to the heroes. | |

Wolfpack Boss: The first one (a pack of Gargoyles) actually constitutes the game's Warmup Boss. A pack of Eyeball Bats function as a Trick Boss in the catacombs beneath Mirumu. Ryudo's not fooled, though; indeed, the root of the problem is Valmar's Eye, which is flanked by additional Eyeball Bats when you finally do fight it. | |

False Prophet | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_e596b496 | comment |
False Prophet: Pope Zera Innocentus is the leader of the Church of Granas, and viewed by many to be the wisest and most powerful leader the church has had. With monsters on the rise and apparent curses appearing across the land, the people have turned to him to lead them lit of these dark times. In point of fact, Pope Zera and his subordinates are the one causing the curses and monsters because he knows his god Granas is dead, and he wants to revive, then later become, Valmar because humanity needs a god to serve. What keeps the Church of Granas from being a Scam Religion is that only Zera and his inner circle are aware of the spoilered information. | |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Aside from acting as Selene's evil entourage, the Cathedral Knights aren't terribly useful; Ryudo suggests that they go marching in search of the Granasaber instead, but it's apparently outside their purview. They won't even bother to seek out the sealed parts of Valmar, and only spring into action when a possession has already taken place. Later, this makes sense when you consider Selene herself is possessed, and is likely protecting Valmar's progeny from harm. | |

Anti-Debuff | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_f003c9fb | comment |
Anti-Debuff: Debuffs occasionally need addressing, since they persist between battles. The Move Block and Magic Block ailments, for example, can greatly limit the tactical use of affected characters (blocking use of special moves and magic respectively). There are specific (cheaper) and indiscriminate (more expensive) anti-debuff spells and items. They can be safely used between battles as well. Rejuventation at Save Points clears debuffs. The White Magician Girl Elena's across-the-board healing special move fully restores all friendly units on the battlefield (clearing debuffs, filling HP and MP, but not the special move points). "Coral Necklace", found in a treasure chest mid-game provides Poison/sleep/confusion resistance. There are various different items providing combination or specific resistances, neither systematically available for every imaginable occasion, nor worth specific pursuit, nor random in their attributes. | |

Mercy Kill | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_f3626b09 | comment |
Mercy Kill: At one point in their journey, a frustrated Ryudo suggests lopping off Elena's head if she doesn't quit whinging about the Wings of Valmar residing in her. Overcome with anguish, Elena shocks Ryudo by kneeling in front of him begging to be put out of her misery. Oops. (Ryudo still doesn't understand the altruistic nature of these songstresses.) Not long afterward, Sandra begs the party to find and kill Aira before she harms any more people. Ryudo's not having it. When Ryudo is placed in a coma from Valmar's Horn, Millenia resurfaces to do her work. Her mood is calm and detached: Ryudo might have been a comrade and lover once, but he's grist for Valmar now. She cracks and starts sobbing at his bedside. It's suggested that Melfice killed his fiancée not out of malice, but to free her from Valmar's Horn. A vision of Melfice appears to Ryudo and regrets having done this. | |

Adorable Evil Minions | |

Adorable Evil Minions: If Tio and the remains of her android sisters are any indication, Valmar apparently designed his minions to look like Cute Monster Girls wearing vaguely bee-themed clothes. | |

Forbidden Zone | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_f651b980 | comment |
Forbidden Zone: The Great Cleft Island of Arachna is so named for being the nexus of the Granacliffs, a.k.a. the "Great Rift". The site is sealed off by a perpetual tornado. This is a security feature of the Granasaber to prevent Valmar's troops from entering. | |

Darkest Hour | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_f91d1d4f | comment |
Darkest Hour: Mareg is dead, Millenia is dead (or so it seems), Valmar is awake, the Granasaber has been smashed into itty bitty pieces, the entire city of St. Heim has melted into a howling, black wasteland, Cyrum Kingdom is burning, and the dead now walk. But the ultimate insult comes when Ryudo remembers he's still holding a piece of Valmar, which Valmar is still looking for — and is putting the whole city at risk just by being there. Time to retreat. | |

Weakened by the Light | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_fab3c1e1 | comment |
Weakened by the Light: Played for laughs when Millenia exits the Durham Cave at daybreak and puts on a show for Ryudo. "Aaaa! The accursed light of the sun! It burns! It burns!" Ryudo uses the Granasaber to cut a swath of light through the sky, the sunrays shooting through Valmar's body like arrows. This effectively halts Valmar's advance on Cyrum. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: Ryudo's first encounters with Millenia and (later) Melfice. Using a cheating device to increase Ryudo's stats means the battle can be won by reducing Millenia's HP to 0 - though this is incredibly time-consuming and if she is able to use the lightning spell mentioned, the fight will end immediately. You don't gain any rewards for winning this way, and the game continues as if you'd lost to the lightning spell anyway. | |

| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: The introduction of the game features Ryudo taking on a dragonoid, well before such enemies appear as encounters - and well before Ryudo is at a high enough level for such a fight, gameplay-wise. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| Grandia II (Video Game) / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Millenia has a few of these, despite her open disdain for humans. She well and truly adopts the dog after finding herself unable to to sap Valmar's Horn from Ryudo. After extracting Valmar's Eye from Aira and putting her into a coma, Millenia sniffs that Valmar's casualties are beneath her concern...However, she off-handedly mentions to her victim that if she somehow converts the icy, inhospitable village into a flower garden, then Aira's soul may come back. Ryudo knows this is nonsense, of course, but is so taken aback by Millenia's gesture that he holds his tongue. While spending the night with Elena on Ceceile Reef, Ryudo finds her staring apprehensively at the reflection of Valmar's Moon on the water. Ryudo says he knows a way to make it disappear, then chucks a stone at the water. Well, it works. | |
