comment
Adaptational Villainy: In the prior games, the King simply served as the Quest Giver to start the story, no matter how comical. Here, not only is he a bigger jerk than usual, he sent Harold on a suicide mission to retrieve the Yikes Stones to have three to grant any wish - his being a selfish one of ruling over the whole world.

Failure Is the Only Option: The first village puts the player in a werewolf suspicion minigame and they have to deduce the identity of the werewolf from among the residents. Even if the player correctly figures out who's the werewolf, there's no saving Thenex Victim because Yuu Too is also a werewolf.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Running at such speeds is naturally dangerous, as touching any speeding NPC results in a gruesome death. This also happens by the end with the Super-Speed-induced heroes and the King when the latter attempts to hand them their quadrillion prize money.

Stylistic Suck: The subtitle of this game is "An RPG desperately rushed out by a creator who makes stupid games". The game is listed as a "demo" and intentionally has some sprites that aesthetically clash with the stock RPG Maker assets.

World Limited to the Plot
 KSB's RPG Parodies (Video Game) / int_4f52ac6a
comment
Practically everything is barebones like the title says. Every area including the overworld is rather small (with "towns" being no bigger than a dozen tiles), the battle system is cheap enough that killing one tough enemy maxes out the character levels, and everyone, including the UI, speaks in incredibly short dialogue. The characters' terse Hulk Speak dialogue is at least Justified: the Demon King cast a Curse on the land that causes anyone that utters more than five moji (Japanese syllables) in a single sentence to die in a fiery explosion, so everyone is trying to avoid death by being as terse as possible.

Money for Nothing: After the werewolf event, a shop in the village sells an Ultra Pricey Necklace for 60,000 G. You can take a loan to afford it and then immediately sell it back for 100,000 G, and the game lets you do this as many times as you want to get as much money as you want.

"Everybody Dies" Ending

comment
The game ends in this fashion: With the Demon King killed, the King and the heroes briefly ponder if the curse has lifted — assuming so, the King requests for everybody to congratulate Harold for his heroics, with everybody suddenly exploding from the still very active curse.

Super-Speed: Practically most of the cast has this. Taken even further with the heroes upon getting blessed with the "ultimate speed" from the God of Speed — they are constantly moving, and any attack made on them automatically misses.

Meta Twist
 KSB's RPG Parodies (Video Game) / int_57cfcbdd
comment
Meta Twist: Despite the game's premise, it can still pull a fast one on the player from time to time. Yuu Too sounds like she would be the second victim of the werewolf attack after Thenex Victim, but the "you too?!" refers to her being the second werewolf. The Demon Lord reveals that the hero's been traveling with a mole all this time. It's not Marsha Traytor, it's Theresa I.Q.Three, who's the last of the Demon Lord's generals. Hee Rosfather isn't Harold's father. He's actually the father of Hee Ro, who's been going by the alias of Fren Less. It turns out there's another force that's been manipulating both Hee Rosfather and King Mastermaind. Marsha's betrayal isn't to the Demon Lord or King Mastermaind, but by manipulating the hero according to Queen Adultery's plan. However, her final betrayal is against the Queen instead. Who's Harold's father? Was it the Demon Lord? King Mastermaind? The final slime you slay before the credits roll? In the end, the game never reveals the truth, turning the subtitle into a red herring.

Freeze-Frame Bonus: Most of the dialogue can only be properly read by frame-perfect pausing a recording of the game... assuming the game doesn't load the next dialogue faster than it can display the first. In particular, one dialogue from a party member against the Demon King reads "Glasses are the best!"

We Hardly Knew Ye: Lucius in most of the games is prone to being killed off just as quickly as he's introduced, whether right after being recruited in Bare Essentials or accidentally using a Suicide Attack spell in Too Weak RPG. The RPG That Spoils Its Plot Twists'', courtesy of its theme of Punny Names, lampshades this with his last name being "Diesquickly".

Always a Bigger Fish: Inverted Trope.

But after the Demon King's defeat and the death of his companions, Harold finds Weakerling, the Demon King's son, and proves that they're even weaker and more of a victim than Harold once the latter kills them in a murderous rage.

Wham Episode
 KSB's RPG Parodies (Video Game) / int_8e20979
comment
Wham Episode: The entire latter half of the game where it turns into Too Strong RPG. Harold is now the complete opposite of his weak self in Too Weak RPG: becoming equipped with the Dark Sword and Armor as the Majin class, with his stats being maxed out across the board. His two companions Marshal and Terese are completely absent, his personality becomes cold and distant, and most if not all NPCs he comes across get instantly slain. All those previous times enemies Harold had to be careful engaging with? A mere effortless obstacle. Furthermore, the Weakerling disposed of in the Too Weak timeline now fights back in the same manner as Harold with the King, gaining strength from the spirits of the previous antagonists, and proving a much bigger challenge.

comment
Joke Character: As he's the "greatest hero" in a game called Too Weak RPG, Harold is appropriately pathetic, having a paltry 10 HP and practically nothing in all stats, to the point that a dog that shares the same HP does ludicrous amounts of damage to him in return. Partway through the game, he finds his niche in becoming the Support Party Member with the help of the support orbs, including patching up his lacking HP with Hyper Guard. He completely averts this in the Too Strong RPG retread, and Golden Ending sequence that follows after the retread's Final Boss.

Foreshadowing
 KSB's RPG Parodies (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: Starting the game features a disembodied voice asking what you wish for, with the following options being "The Weakest RPG" and Back to the Main Menu. After Harold gathers three Yikes Stones to earn a wish of his desire at the end, it cuts to the same setup, this time with "The Strongest RPG" at the top. Clearing that "game" then results in a blank option, the result of Harold picking neither Weak nor Strong as his wish. An old woman in one of the castle town's shops ponders Harold's predicament as the weakest hero in the land, wondering out loud if he's the way he is due to being too strong in a past life. Talk to this woman again during Too Strong RPG and she'll deliver a perspective-flipped version of the same dialogue. The memory Harold has involving Marshal and Terese after having lost his companions and defeated the True Final Boss of Too Weak RPG — Harold claims it was just a made-up memory, noting how they didn't get along all that well. When taking the resets into account, that likely was a legitimate memory in one timeline. Taken further when a variation of that memory serves as the final cutscene for the Golden Ending.

Negative Continuity: None of the games are connected in any fashion whatsoever, with the characters often being dramatically different in each setting. The closest the games have to a continuity is with God in Too Weak RPG (implicitly an Author Avator) indicating in the Golden Ending to be creating all these different scenarios with the cast of characters, rebooting the universe each and every time.

comment
Cerebus Syndrome: The game starts off as a typical RPG parody like the others in terms of premise - the protagonist Harold being too weak to fight against even the lowliest of enemies despite their boasts of strength. As the game develops partway through, it takes a more serious tone with its characters and themes, including: a moral of the weak having their place as a valuable asset for others, Harold demonstrating his ego is a case of Inferiority Superiority Complex, and everything about the King's deceit and the fight with the Demon Lord that results in Harold's companions dying to the Demon Lord's One-Winged Angel form. And that's not getting into the entire Too Strong RPG Wham Episode, followed by The Reveal that Harold, with the power of three Yikes Stones at the end of each timeline, has been trapped wishing for the two timelines for who knows how long.

Both him and the heroes react in Stunned Silence. Shortly after going One-Winged Angel for a second phase, he proclaims his first attack with "Ultimate Attack", speaking enough syllables to trigger his own curse to kill him, ending the fight prematurely.

Adaptational Wimp: The hero of this game, Harold, is as weak as the game advertises him as: a paltry 10 HP and 3 MP, practically nothing across his other stats, and his attack deals exactly 1 damage. The first half of the game consists of being strategic to survive the mandatory encounters while avoiding all the other overworld mooks that'll one-shot him. Upon "beating" the game, you get the option to play Too Strong RPG, showcasing the complete inversion and the grave consequences.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: The Demon Lord sent out his strongest generals as trials for the hero to overcome so that he becomes strong enough to join him and overthrow King Mastermaind and truly save the world. His generals have caused some deaths among the populace, but those are sacrifices the Demon Lord is willing to make in his grand plan. He even left a kill-switch as a bomb in the hero's bracelet that would kill him if he refuses to join up. As a twisted form of love for her kingdom, Queen Adultery cast the curse that transforms those in despair into slimes, so that they can be eliminated without causing remorse. This leaves the populace with only people who have hope, no matter how small it is.
