Odin Sphere is an Action RPG published by Atlus and developed by Vanillaware, released in the late end of the PlayStation 2's life cycle.The game opens in an attic room, where a young girl named Alice is reading her grandfather's books, a series of stories about a magical world...The nation of Valentine used to be a prosperous kingdom, until the greedy King Valentine held control over a magical relic called the "Crystallization Cauldron". He used it to conquer the nearby nations, but eventually lost control of it, and watched as it destroyed his kingdom almost overnight.Now, several other nations are fighting over the ownership of the Cauldron, and thus the world. The war is told through the separate viewpoints of five characters: Gwendolyn, valkyrie and youngest daughter of Demon Lord Odin of Ragnanival, called "Odin's Witch" by the faeries. She yearns for her father's approval above all else. Cornelius, the prince of Titania who gets transformed into a rabbit-like Pooka and must find a way to break the curse and stop the villain who has taken his place. Mercedes, a fairy of Ringford who has to take over as Queen after her mother dies. Oswald, the fearsome Shadow Knight who has a contract with the Queen of the Dead for immense power in exchange for his soul. Velvet, one of the last survivors of the kingdom of Valentine who tries to avert the disasters of the coming Armageddon.Aside from its multiple playable characters and connected story, Odin Sphere is notable for its high-quality 2D art, in an age of 3D Polygonal Graphics. The game's story, characters, and other tropes were heavily inspired by Norse Mythology, and especially Richard Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen.An Updated Re-release, Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, was released for PS3, PS4, and Play Station Vita on January 14th, 2016 in Japan and in June that year in other territories. It features High Definition graphics and the ability to switch from the classic gameplay mechanics to revamped ones based on Odin Sphere's successors, Muramasa: The Demon Blade and Dragon's Crown.Previews: Japanese Reveal Trailer, US Reveal Trailer.Has also spawned an ongoing spin-off manga, Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir ~Little Fairy Queen~. It focuses on who you'd expect. | |

Oswald's odd morality as a political assassin gets lost. "As you commanded, I have disposed of the Paladins in opposition." became "As you command. The Paladins who were in opposition have hidden themselves in secrecy." Hence his ominous exchange with a Paladin beforehand. | |

Earn Your Bad Ending: The final ending has everyone in the world dead or worse. For this to happen, you simply have the characters play out of order. However, select characters have their own unique Downer Ending depending on the boss they are pitted against. | |

Our Elves Are Different: The faeries of Ringford (led by Elfaria, and her nephew Melvin), take the role of the "elf" race in this story. The fairies are mostly of the Wood Elf variety, secluded in their country, being expert bowmen and are in-tune with nature and Phozons. | |

Magic Kiss | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_17003b46 | comment |
Magic Kiss: Apparently the kiss of a powerful fairy is capable of breaking certain curses, namely the more potent version of the frog transformation. After spending the first four chapters of Fairy Land trying to convince Mercedes to kiss him, Ingway is finally freed of his frog form after Mercedes gives him a peck on the head. Subverted with Oswald. While his kisses certainly aren't magic, a kiss is the key to waking Gwendolyn from her slumber. | |

Dungeon Shop: Vendors can be found in certain levels on every stage. While some, like Titania, aren't too far-fetched, it's a wonder merchants wander around the peaks of Winterhorn Ridge or the lava pits of Volkenon. The Netherworld, however, actually has dead souls as vendors. | |

Above the Influence: Gwendolyn's relationship with Oswald is unsettling, until you play through his side of the story and find out that not only is Gwen not under a love spell, but Oswald, who didn't feel right about having her whammied into loving him, went balls-out questing for a way to avert the spell before discovering that the spell was never cast in the first place. | |

Mutual Kill: Happens a lot in the Book of Armageddon, depending on who you send to fight whom. Canonically, only Mercedes suffers this fate as she and Onyx destroy each other during their battle. However, in the incorrect pairings, this is a more frequent occurrence, particularly in battles against Darkova or The Cauldron. | |

Framing Device: The story is portrayed as a series of books that a little girl (Alice) is reading in her attic. However, Alice eventually turns out to be a much more important framing device than usual—because she finds the very last coin that Cornelius and Velvet need to return to their human forms, so Alice is responsible for Cornelius and Velvet finally getting a happy ending. | |

Stripperiffic: In Velvet's chapter, several merchants comment on her outfit. One of the merchants in the snow level says something to the effect of, "You're up here on this mountain and you're dressed like that? You're tough! Buy a warming potion, will you?" The other mountain merchant wonders if the "half-naked chick" is just a hallucination. The female fairies of Ringford also count, as they wear nothing by elbow-length gloves, knee-high boots, and bikinis to battle. In sharp contrast, the males wear full body armour. The Vulcans, in their human forms; they're pretty much wearing vinyl thigh-highs and halter tops more boob window than shirt. | |

Royals Who Actually Do Something: Four of the five main characters are princes, princesses, and queens. Even Oswald turns out to be a long-lost prince of Titania, and Cornelius' cousin. Even the supporting cast gets in on this. The only royal who doesn't really do anything is King Edmund, who's just too old and feeble at this point (but still has killing his father after he transformed into the Darkova and ran amok as part of his backstory.) | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Mercedes' story. Faced with the collapse of her kingdom in the face of all-out war against the Aesir, Mercedes overcomes her own immaturity and nervousness, rallies her kingdom, reforges her mother's sacred weapon and defeats the Demon Lord in single combat, securing the cauldron and negotiating a peace treaty for her country. Along the way, finds her One True Love, who promises that they will one day meet again. All quite rousing... Then we get to the Book of Armageddon and see that, almost immediately afterwards, the Fairy Kingdom was destroyed and her people slaughtered by the Fire Kingdom, Ingway gets killed before Mercedes can ever see him again, and she quickly joins him after a battle to the death against Onyx. Turns out just about everything that happened in the Fairyland book was for naught. Mitigated slightly in the final unlocked scene of the game, a still image indicating that Mercedes became a literal world tree and her and Ingway are together in death somehow deep within her roots. | |

They break the Pooka curse on themselves, reverting back to humans, looking exactly the way the were before getting cursed. No one would think they are actually over a millennia old. | |

Paying in Coins | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_31b47c7e | comment |
Paying in Coins: The player can invoke this trope. You have to manually select the coins you want to pay with when buying things. The coins vary from the cheap Ragnanival Silver (worth 1G) to the rare and valuable Commemorative Coin (worth 20G). It's possible to buy expensive things and pay them with a truckload of Ragnan Silver. This comes in handy when you reach the Pooka Village and find out that the restaurant and cafe only accept Valentinian coins (and require a specific type for each dish.) The remaster streamlines this system, removing the necessity of manually selecting which coins you use for purchases and combining Ragnan Silver and Titanian Gold into a single "Gold" pool for shopping purposes. Valentinian coins are now held completely separate from your everyday cash and are only accepted at the Pooka restaurants, rather than being spendable at other shops. | |

Kick the Dog: Occurs with Onyx during the Armageddon chapter on the True End route. Right when Mercedes is mourning Ingway's death after discovering his corpse, he comes over and gleefully teases her over the fact that her forest has been burned to the ground, ignoring the fact that she's grieving her lover in favor of making her feel even worse. Goes on to become Shoot the Dog in the ensuing boss fight. | |

Death is Cheap: Zigzagged. Characters can and do die for real, but then again, the main cast keeps going into the Underworld to fight Odette and drag people (either dead or banished there while still alive) back (hell Oswald dies twice and comes back both times.) It isn't until Odette is Killed Off for Real and the Underworld is sealed off that death becomes absolutely permanent. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable: During Chapter 2 of the original, try not to have a full bag when you get to the Forest of Elrit. The Alchemy system is introduced there, and there are things you'll need to pick up in order to move the game along. If your bags are full when the Tutorial begins, you won't be able to drop excess items to make space since it disables all but the Materials you pick up, effectively casting you into limbo unless you reset the game. | |

When you play as Oswald, you hear Vanir soldiers, before that very battle, saying Gwendolyn is no match for them anymore and that the dragon will secure their victory. | |

When Leventhan appears for the first time, it is just a cute, little baby dragon with an oversized crown and an eggshell for a helmet. The same hatchling dragon gives Oswald a Curb-Stomp Battle and later attacks Gwendolyn with powerful fire attacks that can OHKO her if she is too underleveled. In the remake, it even gains a new attack in which Leventhan throws a humongous fireball to the ground that causes massive damage. | |

Because Destiny Says So: Like the Norse Ragnarok, the circumstances surrounding The End of the World as We Know It are already pre-ordained. This means that it doesn't matter how badass a given character is or how handily they win a given final boss fight; if they're not the person prophesied to stop that particular disaster, they will at best succeed only to drop dead, and at worst die failing to accomplish anything at all. | |

Any time Odin wants something from Gwendolyn, he'll play on her emotions, interchanging familial address with knighthood rank. The Three Wise Men. Each is stationed as a powerful advisor for the three main kingdoms in Erion, and all are working to bring forth the coming of Armageddon. Ingway, who manipulates Cornelius, the Wise Men, Odette, and even Velvet, who is his twin sister, all in the name of achieving his goal. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: Mercedes. Initially by the end of her book, she's overcome her initial hesitance and weakness, fought against and defeated Odin, and is now considered a true queen with every right to be proud of her accomplishments. During the Armageddon, Ringford is easily burnt down by King Onyx's march and, shortly before their battle that results in her and Onyx killing each other, the Inferno King taunts her for the destruction of her country. More so, as Mercedes dies, she doesn't refer to Ringford as her kingdom — she refers to it as her mother's, apologizes for having failed to save it, and proceeds to call herself useless. Struggling to live up to her mother's name only to have all of her achievements stripped away in a instant does not make for an even bittersweet death. | |

One Head Taller | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_4bc2095b | comment |
One Head Taller: Both artbooks state that Cornelius stands at 183cm (6') while Velvet stands at 166cm (5'4"), with their height difference very noticeable during cutscenes where Cornelius isn't a Pooka. Ingway and Mercedes. Although Ingway's official height isn't listed, Mercedes is said to stand at 151cm (4'11 1/2") in her artbook profiles (whether this includes her wings or not isn't stated). During the cutscene where Mercedes breaks the frog curse on Ingway and returns him to his human form, she quite clearly barely reaches his chin. | |

Useless Useful Spell | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_4c709317 | comment |
Useless Useful Spell: The "Killer Cloud" potion leaves behind a toxic cloud that kills anything after a short delay, regardless of how much HP it has left. Unfortunately, this has a tendency not to work on boss enemies, but always on you. Sure, it kills slimes, but you've always got Napalm for doing that cheaper. Fixed in the remake where it's essentially a beefed-up Toxin potion from the original. | |

Mushroom Man: Appears in Ringford as a miniboss in Leifthrasir. It shifts between three forms. One is a tiny little mushroom with slight anthropomorphic behaviors which is fairly weak. The second is a hulking fungal giant that grows a sprawling field of poisonous mushrooms. The last is a dangerously agile and very attractive mushroom girl. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Dying only returns you to the start of the level in which you died. Which is fortunate, considering how often it happens. This is more prevalent in the original than in the remake since the combat in Leifthrasir is more balanced and makes killing enemies easier. | |

Cast from Hit Points | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_51567188 | comment |
Cast from Hit Points: Although there are no actual attacks of this nature, the "V" alchemy potion causes the player's next attack to inflict armor piercing damage in direct proportion to their HP, at the cost of reducing their HP to one afterwards. The damage from the Variance potion is 5 times current HP minus 1, since that last point is used to keep you alive. Nice damage, but incredibly risky, even if you've got an Ancient Crystal to revive yourself in case you do get hit. | |

Non-Combat EXP | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_5432a8a1 | comment |
Non-Combat EXP: In this game, you don't gain EXP by simply killing enemies - You absorb Phozons to increase your Psypher Levels (attack power) and you eat food to increase your HP levels. Changed in the remake so your characters now have normal levels and enemies drop EXP, but eating food is still the best way to increase your experience (eating one of the weakest healing fruits to killing 30 enemies), and eating gives you an instant increase to HP. Phozons are now used as a currency to upgrade skills or feed seeds. | |

Level Grinding | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_549cd62d | comment |
Level Grinding: In the original, this can be done in two ways as the HP and Attack (Psypher) levels are increased by separate gauges: As mentioned in Boring, but Practical, equipping the Spirit Stone, casting Phozon Release, and re-absorbing all released Phozons allow the player to quickly increase their Psypher Levels with a full Psypher gauge. The bright side is that it can be done even if there are no enemies. Hoarding recipe materials allows the player to spend a lot of time in the Pooka restaurants, eating the high-EXP foods for increasing their maximum HP. It also helps that there are shopkeepers just outside the restaurant (or that you can teleport between the Pooka Village and your home base in some of the chapters) that sell some of the rarest ingredients - You can essentially go back and forth between buying stuff and eating stuff as you grind for HP levels. If the Yogurt is used in dungeons, this can also be done after combat. | |

Bragging Rights Reward | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c | comment |
Bragging Rights Reward: The Royal Orb, an endgame-grade equipment item that is acquired from beating Churning Rift of the World. It gives as much DEF as an Ancient Crystal +2 and burns through Phozons at an abnormally high rate in exchange for a percentage increase in damage to normal attacks that's equivalent to your Level as long as you have Phozons left to burn. Unfortunately, if you're strong enough to beat Churning Rift of the World, you don't need it anyway, and unless you go out of your way to max out every single skill, it's Awesome, but Impractical due to how fast it eats Phozons. Subverted if you decide to start an Xtra New Game, where having a Royal Orb automatically starts you off with a pretty solid equip item, and if you don't care about skills, it's a very good source of instant burst damage if you've been saving up the Phozons for it. | |

Green Aesop | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_56b53152 | comment |
The game has some lost nods to self interest damaging the environment making the devastation surrounding the Cauldron no fluke. Odette has a very good reason to punish Psypher wielders explaining, "You toy with the cycle of souls using that spear." It was scrambled into the oddly arbitrary "You're risking your very soul by playing with that spear." Mercedes's Rousing Speech originally pointed out humans also need Fairies to keep the earth bountiful for sustenance. Odin's lust for power was violating the natural order that kept his own people alive. Her anger was less about him invading the Fairies' land and more that he was callously ruining the very world. Emphasising True Names and being a Nature Hero also foreshadows Mercedes's own True Name. | |

Chickification: Valkyries fear this more than death itself.

Given that Gwendolyn is so dutifully obedient, for all her spirit, she's very fortunate in that her husband absolutely refuses to treat her like an object, and is perfectly okay with her continuing to be a warrior. | |

Art-Style Dissonance: The anime art direction is colorful, charming, and full of all sorts of cute-looking characters like the Pooka. The story, on the other hand, is very dark and grim.

Nintendo Hard: As with all Atlus titles, this one is no exception. Enemies and projectiles flying off in multiple directions simultaneously can occasionally trigger a cascading disaster. For example, you can get dizzied by a laser beam, torched by wizard's flame, turned into a frog and then one-hit killed from above by a midboss' jumping attack. All within the span of ten seconds. The remake is much more forgiving compared to the original, although if you choose to play Hard or Heroic mode, it becomes as difficult as the original. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: Most prominently when you fight other main characters as part of one character's story; they're several dozen times more powerful than they would be at that point in time in their own story. This is painfully obvious when you're forced to fight Mercedes, who is one of the hardest PC-boss fights, but when you get to her book, she starts as the weakest of the five. Of course, "starts" is the keyword here. | |

If I Can't Have You…: After being beaten, Onyx considers keeping Gwendolyn eternally asleep because he knows he can't make her love him. He is stopped by Oswald. Twisted but played straight by King Valentine to his daughter. He strangled her because she bore Odin's children. He couldn't bear the thought of her loving both her father and his enemy. | |

Dub-Induced Plot Hole | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_6a85e9e1 | comment |
Dub-Induced Plot Hole: In the first chapter of Velvet's story, Skuldi bargains with her for King Valentine's Book of Transformation (or "book of secret arts" in the Japanese version) in exchange for bringing her to the Netherworld and meet the imprisoned King Gallon. But this ends up contradicting a scene in Cornelius's story where Urzur had been coercing King Edmund into giving up the Book, which somehow fell into Endmund's possession instead. Rewatch the events in chronological order, however, and you will learn that Urzur wasn't coercing Edmund for the Book but rather the Titanian royal family's secret power. Due to the game's instances of "Blind Idiot" Translation, it's likely that the localization team mixed up the Book of Transformation with the royal family's secret. | |

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Fairies are humanoid and don't really require this, but even so Female Fairies have larger butterfly-like wings, while Male ones have small grasshopper-like wings that are too small to fly with. Female Pooka's hoods are decorated and they wear aprons, while the male Pooka designs are simpler. | |

GottaCatchEmAll | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_6e9e1e32 | comment |
Gotta Catch 'Em All: The motivation behind the Pooka running a restaurant chain — they want to recollect all the old Valentine coins to break their curse. Only two Pooka survive to enjoy it, though the dead ones probably also get released from the curse post-mortem. This isn't a small thing, considering the Pooka curse not only makes one agelessly immortal while alive, but also ageless and indestructible when dead. Which means that if the curse wasn't broken, all of the Pooka would have spent eternity as forever-rotting corpses in a dreary graveyard world. But now they finally get to move on. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Getting the best ending requires that you pick exactly the right playable character to defeat each of the five disasters, and knowing which character needs to face which disaster requires that you know some very obscure information. The items explaining the prophecies give hints on the order. Just in case, however, here's the list: Gwendolyn needs to face Leventhen the Last Dragon. The dragon can only be permanently defeated by someone who knows its weakness, and Griselda told Gwendolyn to "knock down the crown", because the dragon is getting its power from King Valentine's crown, which is lodged on one of its horns. Only Gwendolyn can win this fight because she's the only one Griselda told about the crown. Cornelius needs to face the Demon Beast Darkova, a forcibly transformed Ingway. A prophecy states that "no man" can defeat Darkova, and that "the one who removes the torment is mine own son". The one who helped foretold the prophecy was a former king of Titania. Cornelius, fortunately, is both Titanian royalty and not a man at the time, he's a Pooka, so he can defeat the beast. Mercedes needs to face the Inferno King Onyx. A prophecy has foretold that Onyx can only be stopped by the World Tree, so Onyx thinks he's unstoppable since there don't seem to be any jumbo-sized trees around. However, as it happens, fairies don't reveal their true names until they die, and Mercedes' true name is Yggdrasil—a.k.a. the World Tree, so she's the only one who can successfully kill Onyx. Oswald needs to face Gallon, the King of the Netherworld. King Gallon thinks he's invincible because he can only be killed by a) Titanian royalty, and b) someone with Odette's power, who therefore can break Gallon's regenerating curse. In Oswald's case, not only does he have Odette's power, but he's also secretly Titanian royalty himself—he's the son of Edgar, who Gallon banished, and a peasant woman. So Oswald's the only one who fits both requirements. Velvet needs to face the Cauldron. She's the one who knows how to disable the Cauldron, and King Valentine will not finish her off after she does so because King Valentine will recognize Princess Ariel in her and stop. | |

Video Game Remake: Leifthrasir, which includes remastered graphics, a redone translation, and, most notably, a heavily overhauled gameplay system that more closely resembles Vanillaware's more recent Hack and Slash titles like Dragon's Crown. For fans of the original, the game also includes Classic Mode, which is simply a straight port of the original PS2 version with the graphics and script of the remake. | |

Jigsaw Puzzle Plot | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_715704e5 | comment |
Jigsaw Puzzle Plot: The story prior to Armageddon is spread throughout five books telling different parts of the story from the perspectives of five different characters. Trying to keep track of everything — such as who does what, what goes where, and when what happens — might have been extremely frustrating, especially if you're trying to figure out how the ring Titrel is passed from person to person or how each character pursues their agenda. It doesn't help that the game often jumps through hoops of And Now for Someone Completely Different. Thankfully, the game provides a cinematic theater organized into a comprehensive timeline to properly keep track of everything in a chronological order. | |

Game Face: All Vulcans have humanoid forms, but their real forms are fire spawned creatures with live fire generated from them. Normal Vulcans turn naked, grow horns, and have their skin covered by magna, hardened, and blackened. Onyx turns into a small Balrog. In Ringford, the Myconid boss has three forms. One of them is an adorable little mushroom that can still cause quite a bit of damage. The other two, though... | |

Killer Rabbit | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_74828aea | comment |
Killer Rabbit: When Leventhan appears for the first time, it is just a cute, little baby dragon with an oversized crown and an eggshell for a helmet. The same hatchling dragon gives Oswald a Curb-Stomp Battle and later attacks Gwendolyn with powerful fire attacks that can OHKO her if she is too underleveled. In the remake, it even gains a new attack in which Leventhan throws a humongous fireball to the ground that causes massive damage. Cornelius is a literal killer rabbit seeing as he's a Pooka and has a magic sword. | |

Going Critical | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_7b71edf4 | comment |
"Though blades and arrows are unleashed, the flooding fire cannot be stopped. It can only be chained." This psalm references Velvet's Psypher, the chain Graveyrl. Pitting any other character against the Cauldron results in its furnace core being damaged, resulting in it Going Critical. Velvet, on the other hand, has the ring Titrel, which can safely shut down the Cauldron without making it explode. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Almost everything done by the main characters to further their own agendas unwittingly ends up making the Apocalypse happen. In fact, just using Psyphers is slowly killing the world by disrupting the cycle of souls and new life. They are the Cauldron on a smaller scale. None of them know of the negative consequences their own actions result in. The only character who is fully knowledgeable on Armageddon and is actively attempting to stop it is Velvet, who still isn't exempt from this. | |

Super Mode | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_844b6779 | comment |
Super Mode: Oswald gets Shadow Form, an ability that transforms him into the Shadow Knight by holding the the Attack button for a few seconds. This mode greatly enhances his abilities, but jacks up his POW consumption to such a high rate that it's Awesome, but Impractical without an auxiliary item to rapidly restore POW. Leifthrasir replaces Shadow Form with Berserk Mode. By filling the Berserk Gauge through attacking or getting hit, Oswald can transform into the Shadow Knight with R1 + Triangle. While in Berserk, Oswald's damage, speed, attack speed, and Skills are all greatly amplified with no drawbacks. Oswald can also learn skills that grants Berserk certain boons, such as reducing damage taken by half. In Leifthrasir, Cornelius can find the Psypher Skill Lightning Saber. Lightning Saber causes Cornelius to point his Psypher skyward until it receives a lightning strike. If the skill is successfully performed without being interrupted, Cornelius enters a pseudo-super state where his movement speed increases to insane levels, his attack speed goes up, all of his attacks fire electric shots that have a high chance to stagger or inflict Dizzy, and his dash attack transforms Cornelius into a redirectable bolt of electricity that leaves behind a trail, inflicting damage over time to enemies that come into contact with it. | |

Parental Favoritism | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_88933ad4 | comment |
Parental Favoritism: Early on, it becomes painfully obvious that Odin shows more love to Velvet (who resents him for very good reasons) than to his other children (who absolutely revere him or, in the case of Ingway, despise him). This still doesn't stop him from allowing her to be executed to save face in front of his vassals. Odin's not exactly Father of the Year. He eventually admits this and starts to regret it. | |

Kung Fu-Proof Mook | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_892552b | comment |
Kung Fu-Proof Mook: The green Ooze enemies in Titania capital receive only Scratch Damage from melee strikes, a major problem for Cornelius. But they die quickly when hit with a "Napalm" potion, or Mercedes's crossbow. Blizzard potions, Oswald's Shadow form, and Velvet's homing chain will also One-Hit KO them as well. They've been fixed in the remake where they now take as much damage from regular hits as with other enemies and don't require specific moves / potions / spells to defeat easily. | |

Protagonist-Centered Morality | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_89434320 | comment |
Protagonist-Centered Morality: A number of characters are at odds with each other (such as Mercedes and Odin,) so how they're portrayed differs between campaigns. For example, Ingway, in Cornelius' campaign, is a snide Jerkass who curses Cornelius so that he can't be with his sister Velvet. Then he appears in Mercedes' campaign, where he's far more likable, even becoming a love interest for her. Then he appears in Velvet's campaign, where he's back to being a Jerkass, but is portrayed far more tragically as his and Velvet's backstories are fleshed out. | |

| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name With An S: The English translation by Atlus USA changes many of the character names in terms of spelling, even though most of them are pronounced the same. For instance, Odin was originally "Ordyne" while Ingway was "Yngwie." | |

Deconstruction | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: Of the tropes related to prophecies (i.e. No Man of Woman Born, Prophecy Twist, Prophetic Fallacy, Seers). All the prophecies seem to have twists in them, which make the words harder to decipher, or be taken at face value, and some parts of the prophecy are overlooked, but would turn out to be the most crucial factor. But in spite of all these, the prophecies would still turn out to be true, you cannot fight them, and someone attempting to go against them would meet a brutal fate in the end. For example, Onyx even uses a prophecy related to him to justify and remind that only the World Tree can kill him and nobody else can. He's overlooked the factor that Mercedes' True Name is Yggdrasil. Due to all these twists and unexpected turns, the Seer dragon Hindel has stopped giving out prophecies altogether because many misinterpret his words in the end, and that Hindel himself wasn't able to predict such vague twists. | |

Bullet Hell: Some bosses and enemies just love to clog the screen with projectiles, sometimes until the game suffers a severe amount of lag. Cornelius' fight with Belial probably takes the cake for this. Fortunately, the game seems to be able to keep up in the remake, with little to no lag. | |

Doomsday Device | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_8d12bb8d | comment |
Doomsday Device: The Cauldron can function as one of these if used improperly, as it functions by absorbing Phozons from the world to produce the red artificial Psypher crystals. When Odin restarts the Cauldron near the end of Mercedes' story, it starts withering life in Ringford near the border of the ruined kingdom of Valentine. King Valentine orders it to absorb every Phozon in the land at the start of Armageddon, triggering the long-awaited death of the world as it begins to collapse, and having the baby Leventhan devour the massive Psypher crystal forged from it in order to grow into the massive dragon that will finish off the world. Ironically, in the good and best ending, Velvet used the wrecked Cauldron and the Psyphers of herself, Cornelius, Gwendolyn, and Oswald to release Phozons back into the world in order to help it begin anew. | |

Simultaneous Arcs | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_8d630561 | comment |
Simultaneous Arcs: Each protagonist's arc crosses with another's at some point. They even face the same bosses and visit the same stages while the others are busy somewhere else. The in-game theater provides players with an exact timeline. Most notable is the portion of the story that takes place in Titania, which plays into the story in how the Wise Men are ultimately defeated due to being separated by the other characters. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The translation is rife with careless errors (as opposed to Woolseyisms), showing up about every 5 to 10 lines. It is a testament to the strength of both the original script and the English performances that the story remains a highly-regarded part of the game. The game has some lost nods to self interest damaging the environment making the devastation surrounding the Cauldron no fluke. Odette has a very good reason to punish Psypher wielders explaining, "You toy with the cycle of souls using that spear." It was scrambled into the oddly arbitrary "You're risking your very soul by playing with that spear." Mercedes's Rousing Speech originally pointed out humans also need Fairies to keep the earth bountiful for sustenance. Odin's lust for power was violating the natural order that kept his own people alive. Her anger was less about him invading the Fairies' land and more that he was callously ruining the very world. Emphasising True Names and being a Nature Hero also foreshadows Mercedes's own True Name. Oswald's odd morality as a political assassin gets lost. "As you commanded, I have disposed of the Paladins in opposition." became "As you command. The Paladins who were in opposition have hidden themselves in secrecy." Hence his ominous exchange with a Paladin beforehand. The above becomes unintentionally funny when combined with a later fudge — Oswald kills a villain with the justification, "I cannot allow someone as evil as you to continue to live..." Especially since he highlights his own lack of morals first. Originally he just said "You're too dangerous to let live". Others are very random. A resigned Lilipat's line, "So the army we cobbled together was not enough after all," became "I suppose random assaults proved to be an effective strategy in this situation." It did not match any context, making it blurted out of nowhere. The full scale of Ingway's manipulations near the end of the fifth book. "If the Halja come this way, I shall easily be able to sneak in," was "With the Halja headed this way, it should be easier for her to sneak in." Unknown to everyone, he had helped Mercedes save Brom from the Underworld during her story. Had trouble looking for Troll Molars until late in the game? They switched the word "Trolls" with "Goblins" in your main hint. The trolls are supposed to be the yeti-like creatures at Winterhorn Ridge. Not that the game lets you know this. | |

Absurdly High Level Cap | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_91526ff7 | comment |
Absurdly High Level Cap: The level cap is 99, but you can reasonably complete the game at a level much lower than that. The recommended level for entering a character's endgame is approximately Level 39 and the final boss can be easily handled at Level 50. The Book of Armageddon does feature a difficulty jump, but at that point you can stock up on end-game items and materials for all your characters and reasonably conquer it at Level 60. | |

Death or Glory Attack: The Variance Potion makes the next attack deal a value of 5x (Current HP – 1). It is surely devastating against bosses if you have high amounts of HP before unleashing the powered attack. The catch? Your HP will be set to 1 afterwards, making it risky if you are surrounded by enemies. | |

Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism: The mini-boss Vulcans and Onyx all appear to be of the same race, but while normal Vulcans grow horns, have their hair replaced by fire and become naked when they transform, Onyx changes into something somewhat akin to a Balrog.

"Not So Different" Remark | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: In Gwendolyn's story, the blue bird intentionally notes this about Gwendolyn and Oswald's desire to have the love of someone they care about: Gwendolyn for her father Odin and Oswald for Gwendolyn herself, clearly wanting her to admit that Oswald isn't a bad guy like she's trying to tell herself. In Oswald's story, Oswald himself admits this to King Onyx regarding their feelings for Gwendolyn and their hidden fears she would only see them as monsters, which is what motivates his Sympathy for the Devil attitude after their fight. In Velvet's story, Velvet calls out her father Odin to be this with her grandfather King Valentine, a man Odin despises, due to how they both brought pain to a daughter who loves them despite their abuse and only realizing how they truly felt for said daughter when their actions separate them (Odin banishing and putting Gwendolyn in an enchanted sleep, Valentine strangling Ariel to death).

Competitive Balance: The faster paced and more action packed style introduced in Leifthrasir isn’t some one-sided gameplay overhaul where the player characters become more versatile while the enemies remain the same as they were. The enemies were given more HP and they've become more aggressive and come in larger numbers, but the real notable changes were given to the bosses: In addition to having much more HP, they've turned into real sponges, and some have new attacks that are completely devastating. Then there's the exclusive bosses only found in Leifthrasir who've been made from the ground up with the new gameplay in mind, with a whole gallery of varied attacks that will annihilate those who aren't well prepared. | |

Love at First Sight | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_a8dcb1d7 | comment |
Love at First Sight: Oswald seemed pretty taken with Gwendolyn the moment he first laid eyes on her while sneaking into Ragnanival. Granted, she did have her hair down and was wearing an evening gown at the time. Alternatively, that just got him to notice she existed, and see her as a woman rather than just an enemy soldier. He probably also sympathized with her singular desire to make her father happy. But actually falling in love with her required losing his purpose in life, seeing a symbolic vision of her which gave him hope, and remembering a dragon's advice that "the bird" would be his destiny. Also the thought that Gwendolyn would love him, as Odin promised, since he was desperate for anyone to love him at that point. Mercedes, technically, given that the first time she sees Ingway's human form, she's quite clearly smitten. Ironically in the Little Fairy Queen manga, it's heavily implied that Ingway fell in love with Mercedes when he got a good look at her during their first meeting. | |

Backstab Backfire | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_ab3e824b | comment |
Backstab Backfire: Skuldi begs Oswald to let him live after he has revealed Gwendolyn's location. Oswald turns around and seems to consider it, at which point Skuldi attempts to attack him from behind... Only to get killed by the Shadow Knight. Oswald's thought process reveals he never intended to spare him, as he's too dangerous. | |

Oh, Crap! | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_ad1db87c | comment |
It's heavily implied Odin vs Elfaria was this in Odin's favor, given Elfaria's Oh, Crap! expression once Odin brought out the Balor and launched his Badass Boast before unleashing a Phozon Burst from it. Regardless, it ends with Odin receiving no notable injuries while Elfaria is fatally injured. | |

Living Shadow | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_ad62678e | comment |
Living Shadow: The Revenants ("Bugbears" in Leifthrasir) in the mountain are huge walking shadows that sometimes materialize when they fight you. In the past they were Shadow Knights as well and wielders of the Belderiver, but now they've degraded into tormented wandering souls. Oswald turns into one of them if he tries to take on King Onyx in the Armageddon. | |

Experience Booster | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_ad7b1b81 | comment |
Experience Booster: You can buy a Spirit Gem from the very first merchant you encounter, after the first stage of the game. Equipping this item increases the experience that your Psypher Weapon gains when you absorb phozons. You don't need to have it equipped all of the time, so you can just swap it on whenever you're done killing a wave (or entire level) of enemies. Yogurt Potion increases the amount of experience that you earn from food. In the remake the higher the grade of the potion, the higher the percentage increase. | |

Convection, Schmonvection: Averted in the original; characters gradually lose HP if they don't use a "Cooler" potion in the volcano level or a "Warmer" potion in the snow level. This is gone in the remake, with Cooler and Warmer potions instead being used as a means to prevent, and reduce damage from status attacks caused by enemies rather than the stage itself. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: Marriage, to the valkyries. Most of them would sooner die than give up their warrior lifestyle to tend house and bear children. The fact that most of their prospective husbands are sexist assholes may have something to do with it. Pookas were once human citizens of a kingdom befelled by their mad ruler. An incident with the Cauldron cursed them all into rabbits, goblins or something worse. No matter what, though, they are all immortal and cannot truly die. King Valentine wants to trigger The End of the World as We Know It in part because Immortality Hurts. In the Golden Ending, Velvet would rather be normal because a Pooka's immortal body wears away sooner or later. | |

Odin really tripped himself up when he tried to get the magic ring Titrel from the dragon Wagner, insisting that all he wanted Oswald to do was slay the dragon. After it was done, Oswald decided the ring would make a great wedding gift for his new wife and refused to hand it over, a nice play of Loophole Abuse. Oops! | |

Heads I Win, Tails You Lose: Only a specific character can truly defeat a given disaster during Armageddon. Anyone else will simply die trying, at best achieving a Mutual Kill while otherwise failing to do much more than temporarily stalling the disaster. Even if Velvet defeats Beldor after falling into his trap, the other Wise Men will still overpower and capture her anyway. | |

The above becomes unintentionally funny when combined with a later fudge — Oswald kills a villain with the justification, "I cannot allow someone as evil as you to continue to live..."

Inexplicably Preserved Dungeon Meat | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_b709120e | comment |
Inexplicably Preserved Dungeon Meat: Zigzagged, both killing enemies and clearing out stages will yield treasure chests that sometimes contain minor food items like milk and hot cross buns. With some of these areas it makes sense, like when you're fighting in the capital of Titania or Ragnanival, or on the Valentian battlegrounds where there's tons of soldiers running around everywhere, but then there's also the monster-infested Elrit Forest and the Volkenan Lava Pit where it's less likely to stay fresh. Once the player gets to the Netherworld, however, they quickly find that the only food items that get dropped are old and withered. | |

The Dragonslayer: Anyone who wields a Psypher has the potential to be one, as they're among the only weapons that can reliably pierce dragon scales. Specifically, Oswald kills Hindel and Wagner, Cornelius fatally injuries Belial, and Gwendolyn takes the cake by being the destined slayer of Leventhan, who grows large enough to encircle the entire continent of Erion at least. | |

Summon Magic: Mercedes has the ability to summon a butterfly that attacks with her when she's firing her bow in the remake. Different butterflies has a different direction of attack. Fire Spirits and Ice Spirits Alchemy Potions summon Fire Spirits and Ice Spirits. In the original game, the spirits will block 3 hits no matter how strong the attack. In the remake, they assist you by dealing damage to those who get close to you and inflict their element's status effect (burning or freezing) on the enemy. | |

Forced Transformation | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_b97a2fa7 | comment |
Forced Transformation: Cornelius is transformed into a rabbit-like "Pooka" even during his opening prologue, later learning that it's (more or less) irreversible, and that the entire Pooka race share the same curse. Velvet receives the same fate during the Good Ending, and both of them manage to reverse it for the living and the dead by collecting all of the Valentine coins. Mercedes encounters a talking frog early in her story, who was also once human. It's Ingway, who ticked off the Wise Men and was subsequently cursed by Urzur. And of course, the "Frog" Status Effect, which can be cured (or caused) by a "Metamorphosis" potion. Which, ironically, comes with Collision Damage jumping attacks and poisonous touch built right in. | |

Prophecy Twist | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_bb5126ec | comment |
Prophecy Twist: Quite a few. The vague wording of the prophecy of the Armageddon leads to many Prophetic Fallacies as well. Hindel, the future-seeing dragon, lampshades this and is something of a deconstruction. Because every hint of the future he gives always had twists, he stopped giving help. As for the twists themselves: "A fiery six-eyed beast speeds the guiding hand of salvation. The one who removes the torment is mine own son." Ingway uses a secret Titanian spell to transform into the Beast of Darkova, a three-headed (and thus, six-eyed) beast. The one who can kill Ingway and free him from the curse of his transformation is Cornelius, the Titanian prince, as only Titanian royalty can fell the Darkova. "The Lord of the Netherworld emerges in a triumphant march of death. One that threatens the darkness is the shadow of the lost master." With Odette dead, King Gallon, himself an undead Beast of Darkova, is unleashed, destroying Titania and killing his own son, King Edmund, as he leads an army of the damned into the land of the living. As with Ingway, the only one who can kill Gallon is someone of Titanian royalty, but because of his undead nature, it must also be someone with Odette's power over death. Oswald fits both bills: as someone whose soul was offered to Odette in exchange for power, he has many of her powers over death; but he is also the son of Prince Edgar, King Edmund's brother and son of King Gallon, thus making him Titanian royalty. "The looming blaze cometh, burning down the forests. The flood of fire that man cannot withstand is halted by the world tree and vanishes." With the Fire Kingdom sinking into the sea, Inferno King Onyx launches an invasion on the human world, burning through Ringford. Onyx, himself, is confident that he cannot be bested, because the "world tree" in the prophecy doesn't exist...or at the very least, not as a tree. The one destined to defeat Onyx is actually Mercedes, whose true name is Yggdrasil — the same name as the world tree. After the credits roll following the Golden Ending, to further reinforce the symbolism, a tree grows around Mercedes's crossbow. "Though blades and arrows are unleashed, the flooding fire cannot be stopped. It can only be chained." This psalm references Velvet's Psypher, the chain Graveyrl. Pitting any other character against the Cauldron results in its furnace core being damaged, resulting in it Going Critical. Velvet, on the other hand, has the ring Titrel, which can safely shut down the Cauldron without making it explode. "The Lord of Snakes consumes all left behind. Born in chaos and fire, sleep in mother's arms, life disappears from the land, all comes to an end." The Lord of Snakes is Levanthan, who is hatched in the Fire Kingdom, then further incubated within the Cauldron before emerging as a massive continent-spanning serpentine dragon. As for who the prophecy calls to face Levanthan: the task must fall to Gwendolyn, who — if the other prophecies have been fulfilled — is the last remaining human woman in the world, thus becoming the mother of a new humanity, alongside Oswald, after Velvet uses the Cauldron and everyone's Psyphers to revive the world. The prophecy also alludes to two "crownless princes" who will rule over the world after Armageddon. This refers to Gwendolyn and Oswald, both of whom are of royal blood, but by the end of the game, are not in any position of power: Gwendolyn, because she was exiled from Odin's kingdom for disobedience; and Oswald, who is the son of the exiled Prince Edgar of Titania. In essences, two princes (or a prince and princess) who had been robbed of their crowns. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Napples return from Princess Crown. A common misconception is they are also a reference to Napple Tale: Arsia in Daydream. Lots and lots in regards to Norse Mythology. Aside from the more obvious things like Odin, the Valkyries, Nidhogg and Yggdrasil, there are also the locations in the game. Ragnanival-> Asgard; Ringford-> Vangard; Endelphia-> Utgard; Titania-> Midgard. A large portion of Mercedes' and Ingway's intertwined plot reminds one of The Frog Prince, where a kiss from the princess turns the frog back into his human form. In Leifthrasir, Gwendolyn's Ultimate Move greatly resembles Lenneth Valkyrie's Nibelung Valesti from Valkyrie Profile. For bonus points, both games are heavily inspired by Norse Mythology and feature playable Valkyries. The Dragon Wagner is named after Richard Wagner, who wrote Der Ring des Nibelungen, upon which Odin Sphere itself was based upon. | |

Metal Slime | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_c923e7a6 | comment |
Metal Slime: Fittingly enough, a normal slime miniboss in the remake is probably one of the more convenient ways to amass a large amount of Phozons for the purpose of leveling up your skills: since it's an Asteroids Monster that creates smaller slimes as you keep hitting it and each of those smaller slimes releases Phozons when killed, you'll gain around 150-200 Phozons on average every time you fight it. It's also one of the best places to use Gold potions that increase coin drop rate from killed enemies, including the rare Valentinian coins if the potion has high enough of a rank. Unfortunately Gwendolyn can't fight it and has to use other methods to get enough Phozons to level up her skills. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: An especially tragic example occurs to Ingway. He uses the Pooka Curse on Beldor in order to save Mercedes... Which allows Beldor to stick around in an undead form after being killed. When Ingway turns himself into the Beast of Darkova, intending to stop the Cauldron and prevent Armageddon, Beldor is able to take control of him by magic and force him to attack Ringford instead. | |

I Know Your True Name | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_d3b02ffb | comment |
"The looming blaze cometh, burning down the forests. The flood of fire that man cannot withstand is halted by the world tree and vanishes." With the Fire Kingdom sinking into the sea, Inferno King Onyx launches an invasion on the human world, burning through Ringford. Onyx, himself, is confident that he cannot be bested, because the "world tree" in the prophecy doesn't exist...or at the very least, not as a tree. The one destined to defeat Onyx is actually Mercedes, whose true name is Yggdrasil — the same name as the world tree. After the credits roll following the Golden Ending, to further reinforce the symbolism, a tree grows around Mercedes's crossbow. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: HP does not gradually decrease after battles in the fire and ice stages, allowing the player to patch themselves up, or harvest food items without worries. Likewise, HP won't decrease in the final boss areas of said stages, as the player is already presented with a much more difficult foe at hand. In Leifthrasir, during Mercedes' shooter-style boss battles the POW meter never depletes, so you're free to really play it like a shmup. If you die during a stage, the remake kicks you back to the prior screen, effectively resetting you to right before you started the stage. Many of the game's most annoying enemies (like Titania's wizards and Oozes) were toned down for the remake and there is now an option to restart the book of Armageddon without finishing it, a blessing for completionists trying to unlock all of the scenes. The story is split amongst 5 campaigns with Time Skips galore, and it would be an absolute nightmare trying to keep track of what's going on were it not for a handy cutscene theater that sorts all cutscenes both by character and in overall chronological order, even providing brief synopses of each one. | |

The End of the World as We Know It | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_d71d51fd | comment |
Pookas were once human citizens of a kingdom befelled by their mad ruler. An incident with the Cauldron cursed them all into rabbits, goblins or something worse. No matter what, though, they are all immortal and cannot truly die. King Valentine wants to trigger The End of the World as We Know It in part because Immortality Hurts. In the Golden Ending, Velvet would rather be normal because a Pooka's immortal body wears away sooner or later. | |

Our Dragons Are Different | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_d88e125e | comment |
Our Dragons Are Different: There are three dragons in the game: Hindel, a wise, future-seeing dragon who offered advice to the fairies and Velvet before being killed by Oswald as a demonstration of his Psypher's power; Belial, whose compassion to humans doomed him into being deceived by the Wise Men and being enslaved by their magic; and Wagner, the enormously angry King of Dragons who refuses to listen to reason until you beat the tar out of him first. And then there's Leventhan, the Last Dragon, one of the prophesied Five Disasters. As the game draws primarily upon western fairy tails and epics, the dragons follow the western prototype of reptilian appearance and breathing fire. | |

You Are Worth Hell: Gwendolyn does literally go to hell to save Oswald, just as Mercedes does to save Brom. Likewise, Oswald goes to the hellish, fiery Volkenon to lift a curse from Gwendolyn. In fact, all the main characters visit the Netherworld for one reason or another, whether to save somebody or the entire world. In the best ending of Leifthrasir, the World Tree is revealed to have extended its roots into the depths of the Netherworld where Ingway is. Seeing as the World Tree is heavily implied to be a reincarnated Mercedes... | |

No Man of Woman Born: Onyx is doomed to be stopped by The World Tree. Since there's no known World Tree in Erion he therefore believes he's impossible to kill. Mercedes's true name is Yggdrasil, the name of the Norse mythology world tree, and to get the good ending you must have her kill him. Because of an immortality curse that Odette cast on King Gallon, only someone with Odette's power can kill him. On top of that, it was prophesied that only someone of Titanian royal blood would kill him. Fortunately, it turns out that Oswald meets both criteria. It is said that no man can defeat the six-eyed beast. In order to get the good ending, you must defeat it with Cornelius, who is no longer a man, but a Pooka. | |

Calling the Old Man Out: Velvet angrily calls Odin out on his banishing Gwendolyn from his kingdom for saving her from execution, which was all just to please him, saying if he really was relieved Velvet was alive, he wouldn't have punished Gwendolyn so. Ingway allies with Odette to attack Ragnanival and transforms himself into the Beast of Darkova for the express purpose of calling Odin out over the fact that, after Ingway caused the destruction of the entire country of Valentine in order to save Odin, Odin callously dismissed him with a "well done, traitor" and claimed the Cauldron without ever showing him an ounce of gratitude, affection, or regret over what happened. | |

Star-Crossed Lovers | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_e596f27b | comment |
Star-Crossed Lovers: Since love is a major theme, almost every pairing in the game deals with outside influences threatening to tear them apart. Gwendolyn and Oswald fall in love with each other and are married, but there are others who would rather have one of them for themselves; Gwendolyn was originally promised to Inferno King Onyx as his bride by Odin while Oswald's soul was sold to Odette in order to obtain the powers of the Shadow Knight. Velvet and Cornelius love each other, but Velvet's kingdom has long been destroyed and Cornelius is a prince, meaning his father isn't particularly excited about their affair. Additionally, Ingway, Velvet's brother, is categorically opposed to her seeing that "oaf" and is the one who curses Cornelius into a Pooka in order to try and keep them away from each other. Mercedes eventually falls for Ingway, but the fact that he's a Death Seeker with really dangerous plans for himself and ends up becoming a Tragic Monster means their story doesn't end well. How it ends is determined by the route the player takes during the Armageddon. In the backstory, Odin and Princess Ariel of Valentine fell for each other without knowing their identities. Since their kingdoms were at war, the romance ended tragically. | |

Gameplay and Story Integration: During the Armageddon sequence, not only does the narrative require you to use specific characters for each of the bosses, their style plays to the matchup. Most obviously: Mercedes can safely attack King Onyx from afar with her crossbow and the platforming sequence against the Cauldron was designed with Velvet's jump physics in mind. In order to break the curse placed upon them, the Pookas aim to collect all Valentine Coins. Some food recipes require you to trade coins in exchange, and these are no other than Valentine Golds and Silvers. | |

Exact Words | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: Odin really tripped himself up when he tried to get the magic ring Titrel from the dragon Wagner, insisting that all he wanted Oswald to do was slay the dragon. After it was done, Oswald decided the ring would make a great wedding gift for his new wife and refused to hand it over, a nice play of Loophole Abuse. Oops! The Prophecies state that only two humans will survive the Armageddon and rule the new world, indeed only two humans survived, Gwendolyn and Oswald; Cornelius and Velvet were not humans anymore, then again all other races, including Pookas, died as well and a millennia later Velvet and Cornelius became human again, so they are just that good at avoiding fate. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: It is barely alluded to in the game itself, before the very end, but the Pooka curse confers ageless immortality on its victim, probably as a side effect of being eternally unbreakable. Becoming a humanoid rabbit in exchange for living forever might seem like a good deal, until you realize that it does not confer any sort of Healing Factor. Pooka who suffer fatal injuries still die and rot and become the ghouls hauling candlesticks around the Netherworld. King Valentine's actions heavily imply that the ghoul Pooka cannot ever be permanently destroyed, except by something that presumably kills people Deader than Dead, like Leventhan's phozon absorbtion. Cornelius and Velvet end up living for an extremely long time after the events of the game, and during the bonus ending, before they return to normal, Cornelius doubts whether they should abandon eternity in company of each other for a brief human life, but Velvet convinces him that living forever apart from everyone else, in hiding from normal humans and childless, wouldn't be worth it. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: None of the principle protagonists are entirely good or entirely evil. Sadly, many of those who do more kind acts than bad end up suffering as a result. Gwendolyn saves Velvet from being executed by Brigan so that her father won't suffer the pain of losing someone he loves. For her trouble, she gets stripped her status as a Valkyrie and wed off to a stranger, though things do improve for her since said stranger truly loves her and isn't the abusive asshole she feared he would be (and implicitly what most Valkyrie end up with). All Cornelius wanted to do was see Velvet and express his undying feelings for her. What happens? A jealous Ingway curses him into Pooka and he's sent to the Netherworld by the Wise Men. Much of the first half of his story is him just looking for help, only to either be attacked, forced to do some difficult task, or being outright humiliated. It isn't until he gets horribly wounded rescuing Velvet from separate encounters with Mercedes and King Valentine that things actually start looking up for him. Probably the worst case ends up happening to Mercedes, whose entire plotline is essentially a Shoot the Shaggy Dog story. She successfully quells a rebellion instigated by her cousin, calms a raging dragon, returns a frog to its human form and falls mutually in love with said human, rescues a dwarven blacksmith from the Netherworld, and defeats the most feared warlord in the land, earning the respect of everyone in Erion. What happens? First she loses the spoil of her victory to the banished daughter of said warlord. Her kingdom is destroyed and all its citizens slaughtered, she discovers that her lover died before they could meet again, and the final battle she has against Onyx ultimately results in a Mutual Kill. | |

Ambidextrous Sprite: Weapons and such switch hands as usual, but the game mostly justifies it by having the characters shift said items to opposite hands when turning around.

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: In the bad ending, everybody dies and there is no hope to restore the world. In the good ending, Everybody dies except four of the five protagonists. Oswald and Gwendolyn earn their happy ending together and help usher in a new world, and Cornelius and Velvet survive as Pooka. Mercedes dies, but is reborn as the World Tree, and in Leifthrasir is reunited with Ingway. In the best ending, Cornelius and Velvet become human again. The good ending requires the player to interpret a series of prophecies so that each of the five heroes fights during the Apocalypse in the correct order. Unfortunately, to get the best ending the player has to see every cutscene possible... Including the Downer Ending cutscenes that spring from messing up the correct boss fight order. This means you have to fight through the Apocalypse at least four times total in order get the best ending. Leifthrasir fixes things immensely both by allowing you to skip scenes you've already seen and allowing you to return to the attic after you've viewed what you needed, making it so that you only need to actually see the bad ending once. | |

Together in Death | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f6624c30 | comment |
Together in Death: Odin and Griselda. The former literally embraces the latter's ghost in death, finding solace in that they will at least be reunited. Ingway and Mercedes. It's not as apparent in the original, but the remake features an alternate end card showing that the roots of the World Tree have extended down into the depths of the Netherworld where Ingway is. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: It's always to your advantage to slaughter animals that you personally raise from birth. Most notably are chickens, which, upon being hatched, grow up and lay eggs as you feed them seeds. Once you've gotten all the eggs you want from them, you can then kill the bird, harvest its meat, and turn it over to a Pooka chef who will in turn cook a succulent meal that will raise your stats. | |

Fake Interactivity | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f96efb51 | comment |
Fake Interactivity: This is used in a bonus scene you can get if you wait a few seconds after receiving the "Fin" screen in the ending. The merchant speaks to directly the player and waits for the response. The scene ends with the merchant asking, "Ah, you are a writer?" and then begging the player to tell him the title of the book they're writing, which then appears on a black screen in white letters: ODIN SPHERE. | |

Love Makes You Crazy | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f96f8980 | comment |
Love Makes You Crazy: King Valentine. His daughter falling in love with Odin and bearing his children (Velvet and Ingway), to him, meant that she didn't love him anymore and so he killed her with his bare hands. Overlaps with Love Makes You Evil as the main reason why he's an Omnicidal Maniac — he can't live with himself even after death knowing he killed her. But it's also strongly implied that enchanting the Valentine kingdom's coins made him a little crazy to begin with. | |

Suicidal Overconfidence | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_f97ab6a5 | comment |
Suicidal Overconfidence: In Oswald's book, you can hear conversations between Vanir soldiers who, after the initial skirmish witnessed in the prologue of Gwendolyn's book, feel secure in their chances against the Aesir, including confidence in Belial's might and writing off Gwendolyn as no longer a credible threat after killing her older sister in said skirmish. This in spite of the fact that the Aesir still have Brigan and Odin. As anyone who's gotten far enough in the game to hear these talks would know, Gwendolyn not only becomes the most dangerous thing to sweep the battlefield aside from Odin because of her Death Seeker mentality, said dragon, which was supposed to be their trump card, is delayed and defeated by Gwendolyn, resulting in Odin getting to Elfaria and mortally wounding her, sealing an overwhelming victory for the Aesir. | |

Real After All | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_fb724048 | comment |
Real After All: The whole game is just a series of stories read by Alice in the attic. Getting to the True end, she is saddened at how the story ended, then noticed the latest book's cover ornament looks like a Valentine coin. She takes it off and prays that the Pooka would find the coin until she reminded herself that it was only a story. After she leaves, a portal opens up to reveal Cornelius and Velvet coming out to retrieve the coin and leave a final book in its place. This heavily hints that the world Alice and her family lives in is actually the future after the Armageddon happened. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: Every (named) female Pooka has a name that begins with "M". The Wise Men have names derived from the Norns: Urzur (Urd), Beldor (Verthandi, also known as Belldandy in Japan) and Skuldi (Skuld). | |

Lady of War | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_fe48cea2 | comment |
Lady of War: The valkyries are graceful females with armour allowing room for their wings. While they are primarily armed with spears, they function as slashing weapons. The female fairy soldiers of Ringford's armies are described to be like this. While they don't have armor like the valkyries (and lack it), they gracefully fly into battle with bows, arrows, and magic staffs. While their true colors aren't shown until the Armageddon book where their armies burn Ringford to ashes, the Vulcans possibly count too seeing as they're an near all-female race who hold flaming swords and loyally stand by their king. | |

Death Seeker | |
| Odin Sphere (Video Game) / int_fff371b4 | comment |
Mercedes eventually falls for Ingway, but the fact that he's a Death Seeker with really dangerous plans for himself and ends up becoming a Tragic Monster means their story doesn't end well. How it ends is determined by the route the player takes during the Armageddon. | |
