Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Following the series' first foray into the mobile scene with Phantasy Star Online 2es, as a tie-in to Phantasy Star Online 2, SEGA decided it was high time to go whole hog and dive in headfirst with a fully-fledged Phantasy Star mobile game. And what better way to celebrate the series 30th anniversary than by Revisiting the Roots?Unlike many of its predecessors, IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga is a Free-to-Play mobile game in the Phantasy Star series developed by Appci and published by SEGA. It was released in Japan on November 27th, 2018, with Chinese and English versions released by Taiwanese publisher Boltrend Games. Contrary to the trend set by Phantasy Star Online, IDOLA prominently features a return to classic turn-based RPG gameplay as opposed to an Action RPG, and is thematically reminiscent of the original games in the franchise.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The world of Vandor is a faraway, magical land populated by six races: the Humans, Elves, Gnomes, Demonics, Machina, and Lycans. According to mythology, Vandor was assaulted one millennia ago by an Eldritch Abomination known as "Dark Falz", which was defeated with the aid of the mysterious "Starlord" who descended from the heavens and departed just as suddenly.Now in the present day, there are two major powers in conflict across Vandor: "Law", the ruling caste who use the Runes passed down from the Starlord and heartlessly impose their order upon the populace; and "Chaos", who empower their bodies with the taboo magic of Crests and seek lives of reckless freedom. In addition, a handful of people possess a mysterious ability to transform into monstrous titans known as "Idola", which are all based on a major constellation (with the most powerful being the "Zodiates" of the Western Zodiac).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

And Then John Was a Zombie
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_115d318
comment
And Then John Was a Zombie: Benevolent and non-permanent example in one of the most interesting features of the game, which is the ability of the heroes to manifest an Idola they directly control from a starry space within the creature. The Idola Battle feature lets you assemble an Idola from your various units, which is then given to AI control and sent off to fight as many people as it can before it either is put down or a timer runs out. However, in story mode there are certain chapters (typically near the end of a story chapter) that allow you to actually play as an Idola, with its full suite of incredible powers, typically against a hostile Idola.

 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_173909
comment
Brainwashed and Crazy: It turns out Rockingham's spiffy spaceship happens to have the ability to corrupt people by hitting them with a large dosage of concentrated Dark Falz energy. Part of their plan to revive Dark Falz Cave involves gathering Zodiate bearers together, and brainwashing them helps significantly. They first attempt to use it in Record 2 on Rosalinde, but Jasper bails her out, while in Record 3 they manage to successfully control and capture Astraea (with help from Kaempfer, who pulled a Face–Heel Turn off-screen).

Unstable Equilibrium
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_17975d1b
comment
Unstable Equilibrium: In PvE content, defeating an enemy causes your Element stocks to charge according to the Element of the enemy that you defeated. This also applies in reverse, as enemies that kill your own units get Element stocks according to what character died. In endgame content, allied character deaths can quickly cause the enemy team's pressure to snowball as the Elemental Blast that just flattened your team can be converted back into enemy Element so they can use Elemental Blast again.

All There in the Manual: An official stream revealed that characters who identify as "Rovers" are marked with a transparent stylized "R" at the bottom left of their character card. "Rovers" are defined as characters whose Idola have had their elements changed from their original element in the Western Zodiac (such as Stella, who has a Water Aries), and are mentioned in the game's theme song.

Relationship Values: They increase every time you finish a quest with a unit and if that unit gets picked by other players as a temporary unit. Gathering enough Bond points will level up the Bond Level, up to 4, which progressively unlocks more of that character's A Day in the Limelight story chapters. Once you reach max Bond and view all of their story scenes, you can then have the character undergo Fate Divergence.

Order Versus Chaos
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_1a237409
comment
Order Versus Chaos: In full effect in the setting, with characters and groups directly identifying with and proclaiming themselves to be aligned with either Law or Chaos, with a comparatively minuscule number staying Neutral, and usually not permanently. The most visual representative of Law is Rosalinde, as an imperial princess, while her counterpart is the rogue Jasper, leader of a band of former thugs. The organized forces of Law typically hold contempt for those of Chaos, and often persecute them. The feeling is mutual from the bands of Chaos.

David Versus Goliath
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_1b3b48f3
comment
David vs. Goliath: Any normal party Vs. Idola battle is this. Notably, it's very difficult for a party to defeat an Idola in a single battle due to the Idola having several ten or even hundred thousand HP. Story battles with Idola in this manner never require you to actually defeat the Idola, just damage it enough to fend it off, while the Player Versus Player feature against other players' Idola is meant to have a single Idola challenged multiple times by several people in order to finish it off through collective effort. And yes, with their multiple actions per turn and massively powerful area attacks, Idola generally will tear through several parties before being brought down.

Mutually Exclusive Party Members
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_1b8f9f2b
comment
Mutually Exclusive Party Members: Another facet of the Law/Chaos alignment system is that Law characters can only put in a Law Party, and Chaos characters can only be put in a Chaos Party. Neutral alignment characters are the exception here, as they can work in either party. Fate Divergence allows one to game the system, up to a point, by shifting a character's alignment and thus allowing you to put formerly Law characters in a Chaos Party and vice-versa. Note that Neutral characters, with the exception of Uly, do end up sticking with one alignment after Divergence. Fortunately the process is not irreversible and one can always change the alignment again through special items. More traditionally, you can't have duplicates of the same character in the party, even if the two duplicates are of different alignments. This does not apply to Seasonal variations, which are considered different units from their original versions.

Discard and Draw
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_1f39b662
comment
Discard and Draw: Mint's gimmick is that she gets a more powerful Elemental Blast in exchange for giving up Reverse Rush Gauge. To offset this, most of her skills add +1 to the gauge on use to fill it up faster. Rockingham's Skill 2 allows him to cast a buff on an allied target that causes them to use their Elemental Blast for free at the end of the turn. However, this forces him to give up 10 Water element in return, essentially substituting one cost for another. Depending on the Divergence, he can also either buff his target at the same time, or reduce his Attribute consumption to 5 Water but inflict a -40% ATK debuff on his ally (which can be blocked by Debuff Immunity effects).

Chekhov's Gun: The Stargate. During the finale of EPISODE 1, Anna reveals to Stella that all users of the Aries Zodiate have the ability to both open and use the Stargate, a tunnel that connects time and space. Stella opens the Stargate and sends herself, Rosalinde, and Jasper to Dark Falz's world to save Uly from an untimely death. Stella being a Rover is made into a plot point in EPISODE 2, as she volunteers to get into the Water Arm in Rockingham's place as they are too late to stop the launch, but as the Arms are designed only to work with pure Zodiates, Stella being in the Arm has a high chance to kill her mid-flight since the Arms siphon the life energy of its passenger to fly.

comment
Spiritual Successor: IDOLA shares quite a few similarities with the other Phantasy Star mobile game, Phantasy Star Online 2es, which can be attributed to the director of IDOLA previously directing es. This includes the Idola Battle mode, which uses many of the mechanics from PSO2es's Emergency Quest system, and the Bond Gauge being functionally similar to the Gaiden Gauge.

Limit Break
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9
comment
Limit Break: Each character has access to a special attack called an Elemental Blast, which is used by consuming stocked Element charges. Leveling up a character's Elemental Blast will power it up and allow it to consume less Element per use. Performing Fate Divergence on a character will typically alter their Elemental Blast, either by augmenting it or even changing it entirely into a new one. Many minor enemies also have access to a pseudo-Elemental Blast where they perform a stronger attack at the cost of their own stocked Element charges. These typically aren't as strong as real Elemental Blasts but have lower costs.

Awesome, but Impractical: Flammy [Fighting Administrator] has a very special Elemental Blast that gives her the ability to force her equipped Soul Symbol to activate on the following turn, ignoring any activation conditions or limitations. However, to make up for this the Elemental Blast is incredibly weak, and the fact of the matter is that the ability to spam cast your Soul Symbol doesn't mean much when there aren't really any Soul Symbols worth spam-casting for 5 Fire every turn.

Gemini's AI only has two settings: "Destroy" and "Knucklehead". The former is That One Boss, upon which he buffs and uses Elemental Blast on Turn 2/Turn 3 to wipe your party. The latter is Gemini being stuck in a loop constantly buffing and refusing to use his Elemental Blast even when it's been charged for the past two turns.

It turns out New isn't as innocent as it looks, as it takes an extremely pragmatic approach to ensuring the prevention of Dark Falz's resurrection regardless of who gets hurt in the process. The facade starts to unravel in Record 8 when the Aries Knights start to connect some plot points that don't add up and realize that the only one who could have caused the Elevator Failure in Record 4 is New, and it flatly admits it with a You Didn't Ask.

Stuff Blowing Up: Several Elemental Blasts have an explosion happen on the enemies as part of whatever insane maneuver the character is pulling off, often inexplicably. For example, Reiner bats his enemies hard enough to make them explode midair...somehow. Uly B's high-altitude drop creates a giant explosion...somehow. Both Rosalinde and Gustav have a tendency to make fiery explosive hell consume their enemies after letting giant fire lions have their fun first. The winner is probably Zodiac Leo, however, whose Elemental Blast is simply a glorified Megaton Punch that creates an outrageously huge explosion when he lands it.

Split-Personality Team: Jasper has an alternate self, dubbed "Jasper Beta", who's considerably more even-tempered and analytical than Jasper's usual self. His presence is the basis for Jasper's "Double Team" skill and goes hand-in-hand with his Gemini zodiac. Jasper and his cohorts (including eventually Uly and friends) are fully aware of Jasper Beta and accept him, as however differently he thinks or acts he's still Jasper and wants the same things as him. If Jasper goes Law, it's effectively Jasper letting Beta take the stage in his stead. This is eventually revealed to be a trait common to every carrier of the Gemini Zodiac; Jasper's little sister and father both possess alternate selves similar to him: one even-tempered side and one wild side.

The Phoenix Idola's Elemental Blast is explicitly designed to put the "overkill" in "There's No Kill Like Overkill". Granted, it costs a whopping 20 Fire to activate and only activates at the end of the turn it's used, but it has a whopping 2500+ Power notation and hits all foes. There's very little chance of taking a hit from that to the face and surviving without a Last Chance Hit Point.

Lethal Joke Character: Sasha, a 3★ Wind Knight. She packs a surprisingly scary kit for a 3★ unit, with the ability to inflict the Provoke debuff to shut down enemies who don't have debuff immunity and a cheap Elemental Blast that cranks up her DEF by 40% and gives her the Self-Sacrifice buff to tank damage for other characters. She is also the only character in the game who can use her absymal stat tier to her advantage, as her Chaos EB packs a Counter-Attack that is extremely lethal in specific PvE content. Such as being able to tank several hundred thousand damage at once, survive, and return it to one-shot enemies with several magnitudes more HP.

Boring, but Practical
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6

Boring, but Practical: Law Gene's Elemental Blast charges one unit of the Reverse Rush gauge. Given the potency and effects of Chaos Reverse Rush, being able to skip a turn charging can work wonders for your DPS. The Palm Spear decreases the Element Cost of Elemental Blasts by 1 when maxed. It's amazingly potent due to Stella's generally-high Elemental Blast costs. It's also one of the easiest Uniques in the game to max out due to being an Event reward, giving Stella an accessible Stat Stick without going through the trouble of maxing out her other staves. The Natal Croshell weapon increases all Elements by 2 when the user lands a Weak Hit. It doesn't do anything super special like some other Uniques, and being Guardian locked means it can only be used by Matoi and her variants, but the weapon functions like a vastly upgraded Yasminkov 9000M and all versions of Matoi are versatile and powerful all-purpose units, allowing her to double as an Element battery while bolstering her stellar damage output.

Of course, the Warrior refuses to take Giselle's life without a second thought, taking New by surprise since stopping Dark Falz is their primary directive.

Stripperific: This is the dress code of choice for female Chaos Units. This even includes Chaos Stella, who dumps her white robe in favor of what appears to be a thong and an exposed lower midriff. Sandra's outfit remains fairly revealing even if she goes Law after Fate Divergence, though her overall image becomes less rogue-like and more knight-like after the fact.

comment
Status-Buff Dispel: Known as "Support Effect Removal" and colliqually known as "cleanse", Removal effects are meta-defining for their ability to shut down your opponent's setplay. The way buffs stack and augment stats means that punching through a fully-loaded buffed-up team is extremely tough without being stacked yourself, making the ability to remove your enemy's buffs that much more pivotal for winning Player Versus Player matchups.

EPISODE 1: Released on November 27th, 2018. When a young sailor named Ulysses (aka "Uly") is caught up in the attack of a berserk Idola, he is recruited into the Aries Knights: an neutral organisation of travelling heroes who employ parties of both Law and Chaos to protect the innocent against any Idola which loses control and rampages. With the help of Stella, the newly-appointed leader of the Aries Knights, Uly sets out on a world-spanning adventure that will decide the future of Law, Chaos, and Vandor itself.

Depleting its HP to trigger a phase change causes it to change the Idola it's copying.

Situational Sword: A great deal of Weapon Symbols in the game provide conditional damage bonuses for attacking a target or targets that meet the requirements. These include attacking enemies with Status Effects, attacking a single target, or attacking all targets. There are also those that vary based on your own team's status, such as Coat Doublis boosting Reverse Rush damage if Reverse Rush is cast at maximum charge, or Quotz Lithos boosting damage based on the number of buffs applied to the wielder.

All Your Powers Combined: Player-created Idola are basically what happens when you cross a Kaiju with the power-combining functions of a Megazord. The method that Canceed created to unseal Dark Falz Cave involves four mechanical arms, one for each of the four elements, rooted in the earth that have the ability to blast off into space when a Zodiate passenger of the corresponding element boards it and feeds it life energy to use as fuel. The Arms link up with a spaceship orbiting the planet called the Avalon, which, when all four Arms are linked, summons Dark Falz Cave.

Fantastic Racism
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: The big example is the clash between the "Law" and "Chaos" factions, with Law in particular making a point of persecuting Chaos forces. Lycans are an oppressed race, serving as motivation for a few characters (such as Kibaki). "Rovers" are Zodiates who possess a different Element from other Zodiates of the same Idola: for example, Stella and Anna Marie can transform into the Water-element Aries Idola, when normally the Aries Idola should be Fire-element. Rovers are generally outcast as impure or aberrant by the rest of their Zodiate tribe, such as Gilbert (a member of the Leonis royal family) being wiped from the history books for being born with a Water-element Leo Idola. In Episode 2, Victoria is revealed as a Rover whose family was persecuted by Canceed's nobility, leading them to set in motion a plot to overthrow the ruling caste and create a better Canceed where Rovers would not face such discrimination.

Most of her Elemental Blasts also provide powerful support effects to the party such as healing, Status immunity, or damage boosts. Giselle serves as a defensive counterpart to Stella, with strong Area of Effect damage as well as the ability to produce party-wide support effects such as damage reduction and Guts.

Charged Attack

comment
Charged Attack: The Shooter Class's gimmick is the Charge Attack effect. One of the character's skills is endowed with the effect; when the Skill is activated, the user will begin the charge and buff themselves simultaneously. The user is unable to take action for that turn, but on the following turn they will automatically unleash their attack and deal heavy damage. Later Shooters (mainly EP2 Shooters) have begun to add attacks that execute when they activate the Charge, such as Odette applying a single-target Disable on the turn she starts charging, allowing it to essentially be two-for-one in terms of Skill usage.

Gathering Steam
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_591c36ae
comment
Gathering Steam: Applies to everyone in the game as a universal gameplay mechanic. No unit is able to use all of their available Skills from the outset, as higher tier Skills and stronger basic attacks are locked behind Element Value requirements. Attacking, casting Skills and using Reverse Rush can raise Element Value, which unlocks the relevant units' stronger Skills and eventually their Elemental Blast. However, using an Elemental Blast drains your Element Value stocks, meaning that you will have to build steam over again. Additionally, this mechanic applies to both the player and enemies, but in different ways: The Elemental Values are shared among the player's Law and Chaos parties, so having multiple characters of the same element allows them all to collectively raise their element and unlock more of their skills, but only one Elemental Blast of a particular element may be used at once, and they will all have to adjust to the lowered element value afterwards. For enemies, each enemy has their own Elemental Value independent from other enemies. This means you don't have to worry about an enemy team including a boss version of a playable character rushing to that character's Elemental Blast in one or two turns. However, this does mean that if the enemy party has multiple different boss characters, its possible for them to hit you with several Elemental Blasts in a row specifically because they all build element separately. On top of that, boss characters can use all their skills and full normal attack regardless of elemental value, so abilities affecting enemy elemental values are very useful in delaying the incoming Limit Break!

Fragile Speedster: Lulutemia specializes in being insanely fast, having one of the highest SPD stats in the game when in Law FD and having Fastest on almost all of her attacks; combined with her high ATK stat and the ability to get extra effects when she avoids taking damage before executing certain attacks, she's an extremely effective and powerful Lightning Bruiser. However, her main critical flaw is her DEF; she's relatively squishy, so losing a speed check to a good Water character can be potentially fatal.

The final Free Quest in EPISODE 1 (unlocked by defeating the final boss) pits the player against four of the most difficult Free Quest fights in the Episode in sequence. Beating this gives you a Weapon Fragment that can be used to synthesize/upgrade the powerful Yamigarasu Weapon Symbol.

Contractual Boss Immunity
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_5bb56482
comment
Contractual Boss Immunity: Surprisingly averted even for Idola, who are prone to pretty much every status in the game despite being classified as raid-tier enemies. The only status that major bosses have natural resilience to is Fatal Wound, which is a One-Hit Kill effect (and a boss wouldn't be much fun if you could one-shot it with a status). However, Fatal Wound still does enhanced damage to major bosses even if it can't kill them.

Victoria wants to overthrow Canceed's royal family, who is notoriously biased against Rovers, and instate her own rule in its place where Rovers can live free without persecution. Unfortunately her methods are far more extreme and banks on harnessing Dark Falz Cave's power for her own gain, not helped by the revelation that the royal family was actually trying to destroy Cave and free Canceed from its influence.

Mechanically Unusual Fighter: The playable Rappy character lacks access to the Fate Divergence and Destiny Bonus mechanics that most other characters have. He also doesn't have an Idola, much like Luther and Matoi. However, he is the only character with an inherent trait (a single-use Last Chance Hit Point), and his Elemental Blast is the only one in the game that raises Bond Point gain.

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4
comment
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Many Tower Quests feature a boss room where one of the boss units starts the fight with 10 Element where it would not normally be possible for them to have it. They can and will open the round with an Elemental Blast, potentially wiping your party if you failed to account for this. AI-controlled characters tend to cheat. For example, you are not normally allowed to cast Skills or EBs if you don't have the requisite Element at the start of the turn, but if the AI gets enough Element during the turn, they'll cast it anyway. Likewise, you cannot choose an action for a unit who has Fear or Numbness, but if the AI heals them during the turn, they'll get to attack. Strangely, this applies to you too, as Auto Battle works this way as well.

comment
Deflector Shields: The Zodiac Idola "Virgo" has a unique "Shield" buff as a gimmick. Certain Skills and her EB can summon a stack of Barrier. Barrier greatly reduces the damage that Virgo takes while it's active, and it can only be dispelled by using an attack that's super-effective against it. Due to the way this works, triple-Earth Virgos are some of the most dreaded Idolas you can encounter. Uniquely, Kokorock has the ability to apply this same "Shield" effect as an allied buff.

Meaningful Name: The title, "IDOLA", is a word commonly associated with Dark Falz in post-tetraology Phantasy Star games and used in the names of their battle music. However, it never held much meaning prior to this game besides being associated with Dark Falz. Dark Falz Theater, an Eldritch Abomination that caused endless suffering by manipulating several authority figures and made them kill each other like a doll on a stage. Even when he was backstabbed by Erwin and became Theatri, he still screws everyone over, reclaiming his power and becoming the Final Boss of Episode 1.

Law Lieze's Elemental Blast is spelled "メイド • イン • ヘブン", which can be read as either "Made In Heaven" or "Maid In Heaven".

Balance Buff
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a
comment
Balance Buff: The Mark debuff, originally considered completely useless due to being consumed when an Archer uses certain Skills, got an update in mid-2020 that increased its effect to 10% DEF reduction per stack and now prevents it from disappearing when an Archer uses a corresponding skill. Also qualifies as an Archer buff since many of the class's members rely heavily on Mark to be effective. Charge Attack was also changed to be immune to support effect removal, which also affects any buffs that are active during the charge step. This incidentally makes Shannon EX crazy powerful as she has a 90% Evasion chance while her Charge Attack is active and if it successfully goes off she generates a massive amount of Element for the entire party. Originally the Provoke debuff only affected single target attacks and had no effect on All Target attacks, making its usage incredibly limited, but it was buffed so it now completely nulls attacks against other party members if the Provoked enemy uses an All Target attack. EP2 started handing out buffs to EP1 characters so they don't fall as far behind compared to recent releases. In addition to huge stat buffs that bring them in line with current stat spreads, they also tend to get minor kit adjustments, such as Stella's buff applying a stack of Support Protection.

Underground Monkey: A mid-September 2019 update introduced EX Characters, variants of existing characters that are Limited and have different artwork, stat distribution, Element, and Skills. The first EX Character was Stella EX, who is Fire Element and has various added effects, such as Law FD Elemental Blast gaining a buff cleanse effect. Stella herself is super prone to this due to being The Heroine. As of the end of 2020, she has seven different versions, more than double of any other character, including her base form and six variant forms (New Years, Summer, EX, Memories, New Resolve, and Idol). Giselle, being The Heroine of EPISODE 2, also gets similar treatment. As of early 2021, she has four versions, including her regular form and three variants, each of a different Element (Summer, New Years, Memories). Leo has more variations of any single Idola in the game: Leo, Dark Leo, Royal Leo, and Arch Leo. "Arch" Zodiac Idola are just Zodiac Idola but with a Palette Swap and much more powerful kits. Andromeda, Andromeda G-Type (Giselle's Idola), and Andromeda L-Type (Lambridge's Idola) are all variations of each other with only slight differences in movesets and different color schemes.

Money Mauling: One of Stella [New Years]' Skills involves dropping gold coins on the enemy party. It hits random targets a number of times equal to the currently accumulated Water Element value.

Behemoth Battle: Usually happens in story mode whenever the heroes are faced with an enemy Idola, leading to them promptly summoning their own Idola and engaging the enemy in a gigantic Idola Vs. Idola boss battle.

Let's Split Up, Gang!: When Canceed suddenly attacks Aero in search of the Libra Zodiate, the heroes decide to split their forces to throw off their enemies; Uly, Stella, and The Warrior stay on Aero and fend off Crula and Melvi, while Mint, Giselle, and Mirabel attempt to escape through the Space Elevator. Unfortunately, Farley and Lindsey catch up to the elevator before it leaves, significantly complicating matters on the way down.

Excuse Plot
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_70d8269d
comment
Excuse Plot: Most Event Quests have some loosely defined "story" surrounding them to justify beating the crap out of tons of enemies for loot. For example, the Attack on Titan event has you gathering bundles of meat because Eren and his friends are chowing down on the Aries Knights' supply of meat at an inhuman rate.

Player Versus Player: Not directly, but Idola Battles consist mainly of Idolas that other players create for you to fight. You can also create your own Idola and send it out to crush other players. A conventional PVP mode called the Arena was added as part of the game's Half Anniversary Update, which pits player parties against each other in head-to-head combat.

Taken Up to Eleven with the Idola vs. Dark Falz battle against Dark Falz Cave, which has 50,000,000 HP! Luckily this isn't as big a number as it looks, as knocking it down by breaking a part drastically increases the damage it takes (to where a single normal attack can shave off several hundred thousand HP), and the game forces you to use Phoenix, who has the strongest Elemental Blast in the game and can wipe out over half of its health bar in one shot if it Elemental Blasts while Cave is down.

In addition to raising the Symbol's base stats and the potency of its special effect, raising a Symbol's Level additionally rolls between one to three randomly generated bonus stats, which can boost various parameters such as Attack, Defense, Speed, Critical Hit Rate, Status Resistance, and Element Value Gain.

You Wouldn't Shoot Me: In EPISODE 2 Record 5, Lindsey turns on the heroes and holds Giselle at gunpoint after the party lets their guards down while traveling the desert. Despite literally having a rifle pointed at her head by a person whose entire motivation up to this point is to kill her, Giselle outright commands Lindsey to pull the trigger. She does, and Giselle keels over almost immediately... before getting up not a minute later and revealing (much to Lindsey's shock) that she is virtually immortal.

Summer 2020 released variants of Quna, Wyndis, and Stella as "Idol" units with an idol singer-themed appearance and kitnote In Quna's case, she gets her "Cosmic twinkle star" outfit from EP4. Their unique gimmick is the Live buff, an enhanced version of Dance that applies a buff with Fastest priority at the start of the turn but still allows the user to act.

Amusing Injuries: Lillimo's first Skill Craft Bomb (and its Law upgraded variant Artistic Bomb) has him walking up to the target and rolling a grenade towards them. There is an 80% chance that Lillimo will just stand there as the grenade detonates in his face, causing him to take 10% of his max HP in damage as he gets blasted back to the party formation while shouting "Liiiiiii!". Lillimo's Elemental Blast, Go Go Lillipa (and its Neutral upgraded counterpart Let's Go Lillipa) also involves Lillimo building a tank that promptly self-destructs, blasting him toward the enemy party to inflict damage.

Cooldown Manipulation: A large variety of Skills, Elemental Blasts, and Symbols can reduce the cooldown of Skills for the user or the entire party. The Skill Fever buff causes the cooldown timers on Skills to increment downward faster. Anna Marie's Skill Fever causes it to increment by -1, while Vanessa's Skill Fever causes it to increment by -2. Torbjorn's unique gimmick is the ability to add cooldown turns to the enemy's skills. While his Skill can only hit one target at a time, his Law Elemental Blast hits all foes with the effect.

In addition, Pass players also get an additional Idomag slot and the Idomag Food Gauge gains a passive 50% depletion rate. This was removed and replaced by an "Idomag Pass" that only costs ¥120 and gives the same passive benefits but with the Star Diamond present drastically reduced to just 100 SD.

Where did the Warrior come from? What is Giselle and the Warrior's special connection? Why are the PSO2 characters here, and what connection does the setting have to the PSO2 universe? Where did Uly and Giselle's 11th-Hour Superpower come from and why?, and given the game's cancellation the odds of any of them being answered anytime soon is rather bleak.

Bait-and-Switch: When we are first introduced to Farley and Lindsey in Record 1, Lindsey is presented as a murderous psychopath who is hellbent on killing Giselle, while Farley is presented as a level-headed and reasonable soldier who wants to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. Late into EPISODE 2, it's revealed that Lindsey was Giselle's Childhood Friend and Giselle spends a good chunk of the story trying to make amends, ultimately pulling a Heroic Sacrifice that convinces Lindsey to pull a Heel–Face Turn. Meanwhile, Farley is revealed to be the actual murderous psychopath who killed all of Lindsey's friends and framed Giselle for it when she couldn't kill her.

Old Save Bonus: The Japanese version gives you the option of linking a SEGA ID. If you link up and you also play Phantasy Star Online 2, you gain access to "Idola Points", a type of Global Currency Exception in PSO2 that can be spent on a special shop. While you can only earn 10,000 points per week, you can spend the points on not only Star Gems, but also on Idola-themed cosmetics and items, as well as rare consumables like EXP Tickets and the powerful Idola-style Steak.

Comeback Mechanic: Unlike normal battles, where defeating enemies charges your Element gauges according to what you defeated, enemies you defeat in Arena charges Element for the enemy party, giving surviving opponent units the potential to counterattack with Elemental Blasts. This also applies in reverse, as losing units to enemy attacks will charge your own Element.

Wham Episode: The end of Chapter 11 and the start of Chapter 12. Erwin backstabs damn near everyone by impaling his father Siegmund in cold blood, allowing him to steal Dark Falz's power for himself. Not only are the heroes absolutely livid, Siegmund barely has time for parting words before he dies in front of Anna and Rosa. This also ends up depowering Theatri in the process, causing him to make a Heel–Face Turn.

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The English version is quite obviously a cleaned-up machine translation, with multiple translation inconsistencies like calling Dark Falz "Dark Phallus", Luther's class being typo'd as "Fotoner", and Gene getting a Dub Name Change to "Jeanne" note which is not an invalid translation, but "Gene" doubles as a Meaningful Name based on her source material.

Damage-Sponge Boss: The final boss fight against Dark Falz Theatri is no slouch, with over a million HP (more than most Idola, even). Taken Up to Eleven with the Idola vs. Dark Falz battle against Dark Falz Cave, which has 50,000,000 HP! Luckily this isn't as big a number as it looks, as knocking it down by breaking a part drastically increases the damage it takes (to where a single normal attack can shave off several hundred thousand HP), and the game forces you to use Phoenix, who has the strongest Elemental Blast in the game and can wipe out over half of its health bar in one shot if it Elemental Blasts while Cave is down.

Mighty Glacier: Jasper hits brutally hard due to a combination of his stats and his Double Team Skill, but he sports a lackluster Speed stat and thus has a hard time gaining initiative in combat. This is further compounded by his Elemental Blast inflicting a self-debuff that decreases his Speed, meaning he will almost always go last for a few turns unless low-level units with weak stats are involved. Ditto for Meldor, who is slow but tanky and sports a strong offensive presence. Sasha and Barnabas are both tank-type characters that can redirect damage meant for other party members towards them. There are also other tanks such as Rosalinde, Walter, and Kyra that are less effective but still serve their purpose. Gene is infamous for her hilariously beefy DEF stat that exists alongside a self-buff Skill that gives her a stack of 15% DEF Up and an Elemental Blast that costs 8 Wind and gives 300 Power party heal. She's miserably slow to compensate, but with the right allies Gene can potentially become a Stone Wall that is nearly impossible to kill without buff cleanse. A fandom joke is that the tankiness comes from her huge breasts.

Artificial Stupidity
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_940a5958
comment
Artificial Stupidity: The AI is notoriously stupid and predicable. Examples include never using heal skills or healing EBs unless someone is low on HP, always staying in if an offensive EB is charged and using said EB, using Law Reverse Rush if available in response to enemy EBs even if it isn't fully charged, and so forth. It's commonly said that part of Arena's challenge is fighting the AI. Special mention goes to Shooters; the AI has absolutely no idea how to use their Charged Attacks. You could make a drinking game out of how many times the AI will activate the charge then immediately Reverse Rush on the next turn. Gemini's AI only has two settings: "Destroy" and "Knucklehead". The former is That One Boss, upon which he buffs and uses Elemental Blast on Turn 2/Turn 3 to wipe your party. The latter is Gemini being stuck in a loop constantly buffing and refusing to use his Elemental Blast even when it's been charged for the past two turns. In an Idola Battle, unless you tell the game to target a specific body part, your characters will typically target the part that gives a Weak Hit... until you down the Idola, in which case the game will always target the main body even if there are body parts still remaining. This is extremely disadvantageous against Theatri Remnant, as it has a barrier gimmick that drastically reduces all the damage its main body takes unless you kill off the body parts, and if you don't instruct your party to target the parts you will most likely end up hitting the main body and only deal Scratch Damage.

A Day in the Limelight: Each character has a small series of extra story chapters that focus on them, often exploring their past, motivations and/or relationships, similar to the Weaponoid chapters from Phantasy Star Online 2es. One needs to actually have the character as well as increase their Bond level to unlock more of their story and have reached a point in the canon story where the heroes have already met and befriended the character. It's necessary to completely view a character's story for their motivations to resolve and allow them to choose their final alignment through Fate Divergence.

Western Zodiac
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_9dad9e49
comment
Western Zodiac: The game is heavily themed around the Western Zodiac. There are 12 major Idola, who are referred to as "Zodiates"; each one shares its name with and is thematically designed around a member of the Zodiac, and when summoned in combat its corresponding astrological symbol appears to represent it. The game's four elements, Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth, are also based on the four elements corresponding to the Zodiac. There are Zodiate holders who have mismatched Element/Zodiate pairings, such as Stella, who is a Water Aries, that are referred to as Rovers.

Draw Aggro
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_9f3857d5
comment
Draw Aggro: The Provoke debuff forces the victim's attacks to always target the unit who inflicted the debuff. In the case of All Target attacks this effectively means that attacks against units other than the target are null and void, drastically neutering their offense. Self-Sacrifice causes the affected unit to redirect all attacks on their team to itself. If the party is hit by an All Target attack, this causes them to take all of the hits while their allies take nothing. Note that this isn't necessarily a positive or negative effect; while some units like Barnabus use it on themselves to exploit their Stone Wall traits, it's technically classified as a debuff and some characters and enemies can inflict it on their opponents to nuke a single unit by effectively multiplying the damage it takes.

One-Hit Kill: The Fatal Wound status instantly kills any lesser enemy it afflicts. It is also effective on major bosses, but inflicts bonus damage as opposed to killing. The Phoenix Idola's Elemental Blast is explicitly designed to put the "overkill" in "There's No Kill Like Overkill". Granted, it costs a whopping 20 Fire to activate and only activates at the end of the turn it's used, but it has a whopping 2500+ Power notation and hits all foes. There's very little chance of taking a hit from that to the face and surviving without a Last Chance Hit Point.

Off-Model: The sprites of characters have a habit of being inconsistent with their artwork or otherwise less detailed. Some of the earlier Elemental Blast sprites are also known for having some visual oddities. Egregiously common with Wyndis. For some reason, Wyndis consistently sports bizarre anatomical errors in the majority of her artwork. The most common of these are massively enlarged hips in relation to the rest of her body, but some other highlights include her exposed thigh on her EX artwork (it's much higher up than it realistically should be, as if her hip were removed entirely) and her legs on her Summer artwork (much longer than they should be).

Armor-Piercing Attack
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_afc8ddc7
comment
Armor-Piercing Attack: The Guren no Odachi weapon allows the user to ignore the enemy's DEF buff stacks when attacking. Potentially extremely lethal on the right characters. Some of Lisa/Harriet's attacks allow her to ignore DEF buffs when dealing damage. Increasingly common in EPISODE 2, with many characters (mainly Giselle and her variants) having the ability to either ignore Damage Resistance or DEF buffs with their attacks. Cetus Eclipse starts out fairly normal, but once it gets its Charge Attack the fight gets much worse, as it gains a permanent, unremovable buff that allows all of its attacks to pierce Damage Resistance. This is in addition to the boss being able to repeatedly buff its damage and ATK as well as its Elemental Blast wiping your buffs. Bring adequate healing or burst it down fast, cause if you let the boss take control of the battle it will go downhill fast.

Sandra's outfit remains fairly revealing even if she goes Law after Fate Divergence, though her overall image becomes less rogue-like and more knight-like after the fact.

Science Fantasy: Par for the course, although the way it's done in this game is closer in style to Phantasy Star I than the rest of the franchise, which was decidedly more "science" than "fantasy". The setting is largely medieval fantasy in style and real magic is used, but the medieval elements also co-exist with Machina (humanoid robots) and what is implied to be ancient ruins of ARKS technology.

My Rules Are Not Your Rules

comment
For enemies, each enemy has their own Elemental Value independent from other enemies. This means you don't have to worry about an enemy team including a boss version of a playable character rushing to that character's Elemental Blast in one or two turns. However, this does mean that if the enemy party has multiple different boss characters, its possible for them to hit you with several Elemental Blasts in a row specifically because they all build element separately. On top of that, boss characters can use all their skills and full normal attack regardless of elemental value, so abilities affecting enemy elemental values are very useful in delaying the incoming Limit Break!

Temporary Online Content: Certain characters cannot be obtained beyond a certain engagement period. The May 2019 update even gave them a special name: "Limited" characters. There's an upside though; characters who are "Limited" are eligible for Limited Dolls, which can be used to Limit Break characters without using duplicates. The Attack on Titan event, which not only includes the Limited characters, but also the story cutscenes, which can't be seen after the event period. You also can't see the Bond Story of characters you don't own.

One Stat to Rule Them All
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_b798d379
comment
One Stat to Rule Them All: Speed/SPD. The SPD stat is the sole factor in determining turn order outside of Action Initiative Skills (mainly healing/buff effects). In Idola Battles and Arena, the SPD stat can make or break a fight, and Arena meta tends to favor units with outrageously high SPD stats, Soul Symbols that boost SPD, and Weapon Symbols with high SPD like Blade Dance. The increasing prevalence of Action Initiative has made SPD less of a relevant stat outside of Scorpio Abyss or Mirror Matches, as more often than not you will speed check enemies easier with Super Fastest moves.

What If?: Certain Bond Quests are listed as either "History" or "Legend". "Legend" Bond Quests are non-canon, but serve to depict an alternative scenario with that character. While it is common for one of the Fate Divergence Quests to be Legend and the other History, certain Bond Quest series are Legend altogether, such as Uly's path (who never Fate Diverges) and Quna (who is non-canon in general).

Timed Mission: Idola Battles have an 8 turn limit before the battle ends. You must deal as much damage as possible within the turn limit, or kill the target. Arena battles have a 10 turn limit. If you run out of turns, the team with the most units standing is declared the winner. If both teams have the same number of units, the fight ends in a Draw. Brigade Battles have a 6 turn limit per match. You gain Stars equal to the number of units you defeated at the end of the round or if one team is wiped, whichever comes first, and the status of both teams is preserved across battles.

comment
Brutal Bonus Level: The game periodically features event quests known as "Tower Quests" where the player clears a sequence of Quests each designated by a floor number. As you ascend the tower, the difficulty of the Quests scales up from "mind-numbingly trivial" to "punishing in every sense of the word". The final Free Quest in EPISODE 1 (unlocked by defeating the final boss) pits the player against four of the most difficult Free Quest fights in the Episode in sequence. Beating this gives you a Weapon Fragment that can be used to synthesize/upgrade the powerful Yamigarasu Weapon Symbol.

Last Chance Hit Point
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_beac3bec
comment
Last Chance Hit Point: The Guts status allows a character to survive lethal damage with 1 HP. Unlike most games, Guts still works if the character only has 1 HP left as long as the character still has a stack of Guts left to use. Rappies have the ability to survive with 1 HP in the event that their HP is depleted. When this occurs, they will drop a Rappy Feather and fall on the ground, playing dead. If they are attacked again on the next turn, they will drop another Rappy Feather and run away, but if not defeated on the subsequent turn, they will simply run without leaving anything behind. The playable Rappy also has this as an inherent character trait, functioning identically to its enemy counterparts.

Unlike most games with a Character Focus story mechanic, IDOLA does not actually require you to own the character in question to play their Bond Quest. In fact, you can raise a character's Bond Gauge solely off Friend Assists, which give you a bit of Bond Points every time you run a Quest with them. However, you still need to own the character in the end to complete the final Bond Quest, as the final Bond Quest determines the character's Fate Divergence. The only characters exempt from this rule is the Attack on Titan characters, whose Bond Quests are inaccessible if you don't own the characters.

The twist here is that, while there are wild Idola roaming the world, quite a few of the Idola that appear in the story are actually the characters themselves combining their powers to create and control an Idola from within, often in response to a hostile Idola showing up. You can guess where this is going.

Neutral No Longer: As a gameplay mechanic, the majority of Neutral Characters will diverge into either Law or Chaos after Fate Divergence, thereby revoking their Neutral status and restricting them to their new alignment. There are very few characters who have the option of a Neutral Fate Divergence (Duncan and Flammy being two), and only Uly gets two Neutral Fate Divergences.

Shout-Out
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Shannon's Skills are named after James Bond movies, such as "From Behind with Love" and "Die Another Day". Her Law FD changes "Die Another Day" to "Tomorrow Must Die". Clemence's EBs are clearly ripped from Goku's signature moves; Neutral gives him a literal Kamehameha, while Chaos FD gives him a Spirit Bomb. The "PERFECT" text used in Law Knut's EB resembles the text used by Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA. One of the comics parodies a fairly dark cutscene in EPISODE 2 Record 5, with a young Giselle surrounded by several dead bodies. The comic changes the poses of the bodies into famous anime death poses, including Yamcha's and Orga Itsuka's.

Two Lines, No Waiting
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_ca7ec334
comment
Two Lines, No Waiting: Starting from Chapter 12, the story splits into following Uly and the Aries Knights separately. The Aries Knights attempt to handle the Dark Falz situation on the ground level, while Uly goes through Time to Unlock More True Potential. In EPISODE 2, the main split once again occurs at Aero, where Giselle, the Warrior, Lindsey, and Mirabel are trapped in a damaged Space Elevator and sent plummeting to the ground at lethal speed. In subsequent chapters, the story splits between following the Warrior's party while Stella, Uly, and the Aries Knights take care of business elsewhere in the continent. The story also occasionally gives glimpses at Canceed's plotting at various points. The two parties ultimately rejoin in Record 6, when the heroes ride in on Polaris Nova to help lead the Aries Knights' counter-assault against Canceed.

This Looks Like a Job for Aquaman: Gratitude Uly is an extremely lackluster unit in most scenarios, as his kit is not very versatile for dealing with multiple targets and his EB is comparatively low power for a single-target attack. However, pit him against an Idola, and he's one of the most powerful Idola killers in the game, with both his Normal Attack and EB always dealing Weak Hits and his EB getting a huge 50% damage boost against Idola. Torbjorn, an otherwise weak character with very little utility, can be used to cheese the everloving daylights out of Hydra Diablos by forcing its extremely annoying Support Effect Removal Skill to go on cooldown.

Anti-Frustration Features
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
Anti-Frustration Features: Spending Star Diamonds on the Gacha will award you with a currency called Scout Medals. Scout Medals can be spent on various items, including several types of Gacha Tickets, allowing you to get free extra pulls or guaranteed rarity characters even if you spend Diamonds but don't get what you want. While the game employs No Bulk Discounts, most banners give you a free prize for a batch pull. For Symbol Gachas, the free prize is typically a Symbol Fragment of the Symbol featured on the banner, referred to by fans as "pity fragments". Two Fragments can be combined into a Level 1 Symbol, meaning that just pulling 10x twice means you'll get a pity Symbol guaranteed. Story Quest costs 0 Stamina to play, allowing you to run through the entire mode in one go or at your leisure. There is a Retry button for certain Quests that lets you replay the Quest with the same team and Assist. This streamlines the process of farming and level grinding, as it lets you skip all the menus in-between. This was later upgraded with a function called "Auto-Quest", which allows you to let the game play itself until you run out of Stamina. Auto-Quest was later replaced by a function called "Bulk Quest", which uses the same mechanic as Descent Quest tickets by allowing you to play a Quest once and get rewards as if you had played it up to 10 times. Arena has a function that lets you "stack" up to six plays, useful for players who don't have the time or patience to play six Arena fights. Stacking plays multiplies all relevant rewards accordingly, including Arena Coin payouts, enemies defeated, and rounds played, but for the purposes of ranking only a single fight still counts as one round. An update additionally added the Forfeit function in Arena, allowing you to cancel your winstreak without using up a play. Particularly useful if you got poor scores in either your first or second rounds. The Attack on Titan update in May 2019 added Limited Dolls as an item. Limited Dolls can be used on units who have the Limited status to Limit Break them without requiring duplicate units, making it easier to max them out even if you didn't get the requisite four duplicate units for max Limit Break after their banner expires. A later update added Platinum Dolls, which are like Limited Dolls but usable on any character. This helps compensate for the Destiny Bond mechanic added at roughly the same time, which rewards players for maxing the Limit Break of two different copies of the same character (thus requiring ten copies for max stats). Unlike most games with a Character Focus story mechanic, IDOLA does not actually require you to own the character in question to play their Bond Quest. In fact, you can raise a character's Bond Gauge solely off Friend Assists, which give you a bit of Bond Points every time you run a Quest with them. However, you still need to own the character in the end to complete the final Bond Quest, as the final Bond Quest determines the character's Fate Divergence. The only characters exempt from this rule is the Attack on Titan characters, whose Bond Quests are inaccessible if you don't own the characters. The fourth Bond Level requires a whopping 1000 points, which is extremely grindy without using certain Symbols or characters to speed up the process. EP2 removed the fourth Bond Level, meaning that you can now finish characters much earlier, and added a Bond Quest that allows you to grind for Bond Points very quickly compared to other content. An update added the ability to reconnect from a force quit for Arena and Brigade Battle as it does in normal content. However, It Only Works Once is in effect to prevent players from Save Scumming. A March 2021 update enabled the ability to consume up to 10 Descent Quest tickets per fight, drastically accelerating the pace of grinding Descent Medals. You cannot desynthesize Unique Weapon Symbols into Fragments. This is typically a positive since they are explicitly designed to be all but impossible to fuse normally and you only ever get one copy of most. However, Descent Quest Uniques get a bit more complicated since it is possible to get dupes of them unlike other Uniques, and Scorpio Abyss's Unique Weapon Symbol has a much higher drop rate than the others, meaning dupes of it will wind up collecting dust in your inventory with no way to get rid of them. The 2.10.0 update added a Mock Battle option to Brigade Battle, allowing you to fight your own Brigade's Defense teams (including your own) to test their function in combat.

Character Class System
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_e4878443
comment
Character Class System: There are two primary classes, Law and Chaos. Law Characters are defensive, with support and heal abilities, while Chaos characters are offensive, with high damage and debilitating abilities. While the primary role of each Unit can't be changed, they can be given a secondary role through Fate Divergence, which augments their primary role. There are also Neutral Units, which are rarer, sport balanced traits, and can be teamed up with any other character. All three alignments also have Classes within them that cover specific roles, such as the Knight and Elementer Classes in Law, Grappler and Bard Classes in Neutral, and Berserker and Wizard Classes in Chaos. Fate Divergence then allows you to take these alignment-exclusive classes and their capabilities into the opposite alignment, allowing you to diversify your Law and Chaos parties accordingly.

Expy: The premium currency, Star Diamonds, are essentially a reskinned variation of Star Gems from Phantasy Star Online 2, but with the appearance of an actual five-pointed star instead of a gem-like shape. They're even colored a vivid rainbow just like Star Gems. Flammy looks and sounds extremely similar to Seraphy from Phantasy Star Online 2es. A post-EP1 event quest has her finally confirm that she is in fact Seraphy.

Nerf
 IDOLA: Phantasy Star Saga (Video Game) / int_e545e190
comment
Nerf: "Sleepy Giselle", a notoriously omnipresent Soul Symbol due to the sheer potency of its Status-Buff Dispel properties, was nerfed heavily by causing it to disappear after removing buffs once and replacing its powerful 2-turn duration effect with a 20% SPD buff. The Super Fastest speed tier was reworked in the same update. Previously there was no sorting for Super Fastest like there was for Fastest attacks and was based solely on the SPD stat, but this update revised it so that Healing Skills go first, followed by Support, Debuff, then Attack Skills.

Gameplay and Story Integration: Idola Cores are a material needed to summon Idola for other players to fight in Idola Battles. During EPISODE 2, Lambridge asks Crulla if they can just turn into an Idola and break out after being imprisoned by Victoria's army. Crulla denies since the enemy soldiers confiscated their Idola Cores in addition to their weapons.

Humongous Mecha: Unlike other Zodiac Idola, which at least resemble humanoid and/or organic creatures, Polaris (and Polaris Nova) is an out-and-out giant robot Idola. Andromeda and Andromeda G are also giant mecha Idola, explained by Canceed's ability to create artificial Idola. Summer Quna's Idola is her custom-color A.I.S. from her "Cosmic twinkle star" concert. Dark Falz Cave is itself a manually-piloted Dark Falz made of the space battleship Avalon and the four Arms attached to it. At its full size it utterly dwarfs every Idola in the game.

While the game employs No Bulk Discounts, most banners give you a free prize for a batch pull. For Symbol Gachas, the free prize is typically a Symbol Fragment of the Symbol featured on the banner, referred to by fans as "pity fragments". Two Fragments can be combined into a Level 1 Symbol, meaning that just pulling 10x twice means you'll get a pity Symbol guaranteed.

In EPISODE 2, the main split once again occurs at Aero, where Giselle, the Warrior, Lindsey, and Mirabel are trapped in a damaged Space Elevator and sent plummeting to the ground at lethal speed. In subsequent chapters, the story splits between following the Warrior's party while Stella, Uly, and the Aries Knights take care of business elsewhere in the continent. The story also occasionally gives glimpses at Canceed's plotting at various points. The two parties ultimately rejoin in Record 6, when the heroes ride in on Polaris Nova to help lead the Aries Knights' counter-assault against Canceed.

Tag Team: A single party consists primarily of two smaller parties of four characters each: a Law Party and a Chaos Party. There can only be one active team on the field, but a special Area of Effect attack called a Reverse Rush allows you to switch between Law and Chaos Parties mid-combat. While Reverse Rush can be used on any turn that you haven't used one already, Reverse Rush can be "charged" for up to three turns, and each turn that you stock a Reverse Rush boosts the benefit earned from using it; switching into a Chaos Party reduces enemy Defense, while switching into a Law Party boosts the party's Defense.

Gene is infamous for her hilariously beefy DEF stat that exists alongside a self-buff Skill that gives her a stack of 15% DEF Up and an Elemental Blast that costs 8 Wind and gives 300 Power party heal. She's miserably slow to compensate, but with the right allies Gene can potentially become a Stone Wall that is nearly impossible to kill without buff cleanse. A fandom joke is that the tankiness comes from her huge breasts.

Barrier Change Boss: The Idola "Chameleos" has an ability where he attacks a unit with his tongue; his main body then becomes the Element corresponding to that unit's Element. This can make battling Chameleos slightly tricky as he can change things up at will. Theatri has this ability. While normally an Earth Unit by default, his first Skill causes his Element to change to whatever Element the enemy is weak to after it's used.

Laser Blade: Law Reiner trades his Home Run Hitter Elemental Blast for Over End (based on its PSO2 incarnation), where he summons a massive blade of energy to cover his sword before slashing all targets on screen. Chaos Walter's Elemental Blast has him swing down a massive dark energy blade, similar to Over End as well, though in his case he cuts the enemy with the blade and then lets them get shredded by the debris shot out as his blade cuts into the earth. Law Matoi's second Skill, Heroic End, involves Matoi summoning the giant energy blade from Hero Time Finish on the Clarissa III before hammering the enemy party with an overhead strike.

Running Gag: In Yuru Idola: Stella's A-Cup Angst is brought up constantly. Rosalinde's t-shirts, whose text changes in every comic. It usually has something to do with her large breasts, but occasionally the text is replaced with other relevant phrases. Uly's t-shirts, though not to the same degree as Rosalinde's.

Gainaxing: There is definitely some Jiggle Physics going on for a handful of the women. Especially Rosalinde, whose breasts are shown jiggling when she is standing still.

Player Character: Uly serves this role as a special unit; his Element is determined by the birthday you input upon initial startup, and he is the only unit who maintains his Neutral alignment status even after Fate Divergence, allowing you to choose either Fate and slot him into any team. Unlike normal Units, he also gains Limit Break through story progress, making him progressively stronger over time. EPISODE 2 features a unique player unit who can be named and whose gender can be chosen.

Robot Buddy: Early on in the story, Uly and his party dig up a MAG known as "Pai", who subsequently accompanies Uly and helps out with information. The 1.8.0 update added Idomag, the IDOLA version of MAGs. They come in multiple varieties each with their own unique traits, and you can grow them over time by giving them Food. Leveling them up gives them points you can spend on stat boosts and unlock boost equips that can be used to power up your main party.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: It turns out New isn't as innocent as it looks, as it takes an extremely pragmatic approach to ensuring the prevention of Dark Falz's resurrection regardless of who gets hurt in the process. The facade starts to unravel in Record 8 when the Aries Knights start to connect some plot points that don't add up and realize that the only one who could have caused the Elevator Failure in Record 4 is New, and it flatly admits it with a You Didn't Ask. Victoria wants to overthrow Canceed's royal family, who is notoriously biased against Rovers, and instate her own rule in its place where Rovers can live free without persecution. Unfortunately her methods are far more extreme and banks on harnessing Dark Falz Cave's power for her own gain, not helped by the revelation that the royal family was actually trying to destroy Cave and free Canceed from its influence.

comment
Attack! Attack! Attack!: Due to the highly limited turn count in Brigade Battle, the main goal of a Brigade Attack team is to burst down the opponent's Defense team as quickly as possible. Conversely, the main goal of a Brigade Defense team is to stall out (or alternatively, overpower) the opponent's offense to prevent them from getting points.

Item Crafting: New Weapon Symbols and Soul Symbols can be synthesized by using Fragments, allowing you to acquire them outside of the Gacha. Unwanted Symbols can also be desynthesized into Fragments, and spare Fragments can be used to upgrade your existing Symbols.

Third Act Stupidity: Victoria proves herself a cunning chessmaster once her true plans are revealed; however, the one time it actually matters she chooses to give up control of Giselle to the heroes despite the fact that retaining control of Giselle is the only thing that would guarantee her plan's success.
