Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom is a 2017 action RPG/fighting game hybrid developed by the French studio Enigami and published by Focus Entertainment for PC (through Steam and Humble Bundle), PlayStation 4 and Xbox One (and later ported to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S).The game is a loose adaptation of The Shiness, a 2005 web manga by Samir "Samjin" Rebib, who founded Enigami with the game's composer Hazem Hawash. Set on the shattered planet Mahera, it revolves around a young waki named Chado, who discovers he's the only one who can see Terra, one of the four elemental spirits known as the Shiness, and goes on a journey with her and his friend Poky to find the legendary Lands of Life. But when their airship crashes, they end up in the middle of a war...As you can probably guess from the synopsis, the game is a deliberate love letter to classic Eastern RPGs, though it features a real-time combat system similar to a fighting game. Intended to be the first part of an Episodic Game, The Lightning Kingdom unfortunately received mixed reviews and failed to make a profit, killing both Enigami and any chance of a sequel.Shiness: Crossroadnote Shiness: Chemins Croisés in French., a 6-chapter tie-in manga, was released as a prequel for the game a few months before its release. Since the game's website no longer exists, the manga may instead be read with the Wayback Machine or in its artist's Instagram stories. Unfortunately, only the French version is currently completely findable. |

Miles Gloriosus: Debatably Chado, he repeatedly claims to be an Ace Pilot even though he only flew a ship twice and crashed both times, the second time was because he carelessly flew through a storm. Then again, he did manage to fly through space from Kimpao to Gendys on his second attempt, whether he achieved this through luck alone or at least some skill is left ambiguous. |

comment |
Artistic License – Linguistics: Chado can perfectly understand Terra even though she's thousands of cycles old and speaks an older form of Maherian, whose modern forms are also almost unchanged and all mutually intelligible despite the considerable time gap. This was done deliberately by Maherian's creators Déborah Lebon and Clément Michard, otherwise the plot couldn't start. The Maherian guide implies that the game is an adaptation of a Maherian book that somehow ended up on Earth and was translated by Lebon and Michard. As Maherian is an alien language unrelated to anything spoken on Earth, it should have been impossible for them to translate it without some sort of Rosetta Stone. |

Instant Expert: Chado knows how to fly the Asanao-3 and manages to fly it all the way to Gendys even though there are no other spaceships on Kimpao and therefore nobody to teach him, and his only experience is the Asanao-1, which burned down before it even took off, and the Asanao-2, which crashed immediately after taking off. Somewhat averted with the spells and techniques, as characters have to learn the ones they don't already know when they join the party by equipping scrolls, which they have to keep equipped to use the corresponding spell or technique until it is mastered and usable without the scroll. However, the characters perfectly use the spells and techniques from the get-go, their efficiency doesn't change depending on whether they're mastered or not. |

Rosalya can reveal invisible doors leading to powerful items, but you can only find them by listening to a sound that plays when they're close. Unless you waste a lot of time revisiting every place, including already-cleared dungeons, you will need a guide to find them all, the one on the Three Arrows is even permanently missable. |

All There in the Manual: Anything regarding the Maherian language was revealed either on social media or in a guide that was given to some backers. The guide is even the only place where the proper pronunciations of some Maherian words can be found, as the game romanizes them incorrectly (for instance, the name of one technique contains voselib, which is a bad romanization of the Maherian word /voʃelib/, meaning "terrible", which is pronounced with an English sh-sound and not an s-sound). However, not even the guide reveals how the name of the town of Shjue is supposed to be pronounced. The main characters are given little backstory in the game, more is found in Crossroad. It's also the only place where Altania's name is revealed. Minor details such as Mingane and Nashoba's backstories and why Mahera shattered were only revealed on the game's defunct website. |

Chado and Poky somehow managed to build three spaceships even though there are no spaceships on Kimpao, so they had no way to get the parts. Even if they had somehow built every single part on their own or cannibalized other machines, how they managed to build the three Asanaos so quickly (how long it took them isn't mentioned, but since they don't seem to age between the chapter in Crossroad where Poky becomes interested in traveling with Chado and the one where the Asanao-3 takes off, it was supposedly less than a cycle) is never explained, neither is how they could afford building the 3 ships even though they're still children. This is definitely an Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole, since in The Shiness, the ship was built by Chado's grandfather instead and he mentions it took him his entire life. |

Never Trust a Trailer |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 |
comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The game's trailers, even the ones shown only a few months before the game's release, often show elements that were obviously animated just for them, such as the whole party fighting whereas only one character can fight at a time in the game, or were removed from the final game, like cutscenes that were later deleted due to rewrites. The worst offender is easily the Gamescom 2016 trailer: it contains an animated cutscene of Chado and Terra's first meeting whereas it happens offscreen in the game, the scene showing the Adoryans about to execute Askel at the Gendys Station never happens in the game and seems to be a misleadingly modified version of a similar scene happening on Mantara instead, none of the shots where all five playable characters travel together can happen in the game, Ayron's model is outdated and he speaks with Askel's voice, the monster he summons is the unrelated boss Sabba and neither is fought at the Giant's Hall... the trailer barely features any frames from the actual game. |

Multiple Endings |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 |
comment |
Multiple Endings: Two endings are possible and determined by your choices: one where Irys turns out to be the one who betrayed the Mantarians, accidentally kills Kaorys and is fought as the Pre-Final Boss before merging with Ayron to become the Final Boss, and one where Kaorys is the traitor and the roles are reversed, you're more likely to get the second ending by making the cruelest choices. Since no sequel was made, we don't know which ending is canon, though the final cutscene is the exact same no matter the ending since both sisters die in any case and the party leaves Gendys anyway, so it's likely that neither ending would have had long-term consequences. |

The Ghost: Nalluka's elders (mistranslated as "doyens") are mentioned several times by Kayenne, who has been tasked with bringing Rosalya to them, but they never appear in the game since it ends before the party reaches Nalluka. An isolito mentions a different tribe called the sanolitos, which never appear either. Unlike Chado's father, who appears in Crossroad, Poky's family appears neither in the game nor in Crossroad even though he mentions it in the game. |

Leaked Experience |

comment |
Kayenne is supposed to be a very knowledgeable shelk who has been around for more than a hundred cycles, but when he joins the party, his level is very low and he only knows a very small number of spells and techniques. Conversely, when Rosalya joins the party much later in the game, her level is very high and she knows a considerable number of spells and techniques even though she's not supposed to be able to control her powers and spent her childhood in a Gilded Cage where she presumably never learned how to fight, Kayenne and the Mantarians are never shown teaching her. A possible explanation is that Ranahel had her learn spells in an unsuccessful attempt to help her control her powers, but it doesn't explain why she doesn't defend herself when Askel tries to capture her (however, in the unpublished seventh chapter of Crossroad, she does use a fire spell against him, albeit unsuccessfully). |

Technologically Advanced Foe: Ayron's flagship is implied to be significantly more advanced than the Adoryan fleet, which is itself much more powerful than anything the Mantarians have as they're a faction of refugees who own no warships. Mantarian soldiers also seem to lack the Adoryans' electrified and energy weapons, and wear less elaborate armor. However, it's implied that the technology that can turn Mantara invisible belongs to the Mantarians alone (as Ayron's squadron is fully visible when it travels from Adorya to Mantara, allowing the party to spot it and warn the Mantarians) and was the only thing that gave them a chance to resist Adorya for cycles. |

After meeting Ayron, he theorizes that he's a member of these forces, but they're never brought up again and his theory is never confirmed. If the party finds the Secret Rift and meets the Sister of Secrets, she reveals that she met King Ranahel and Ayron and that they both gave her secrets they wanted to forget. She doesn't reveal them to the party, we never find out what they are and they're never mentioned again. |

Thriving Ghost Town: There are only 2 towns in the game (though we only see part of Gendys), Mantara, which has fewer than a hundred NPCs and roughly a dozen houses, and Shjue, which is even less populated (it appears to have more houses, but you can't enter them). Justified, first because many Gendyans died in the war against the Gromiz, the poisoning of the inhabitants of Laotan-Piki-Lanku then the war against Adorya, second because many survivors fled to safer regions when Gendys became tainted by the dark shi. |

Status Effects: Many, several work like in most RPGs, such as poison (which causes the target to gradually lose health) or silence (which prevents the target from using spells). However, some others are instead linked to elements and change the target's elemental affinities, and others, such as lightness (which makes the target easier to knock down) or fear (which causes the fighting character to briefly become uncontrollable and move away from the enemy) are specific to the real-time combat system. |

Forced Level-Grinding |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_26a98394 |
comment |
Forced Level-Grinding: Zig-Zagged, on the one hand, the game has Anti-Grinding measures, on the other hand, bosses become extremely difficult (or even unbeatable at times if they can heal, because they might do so faster than you can hurt them) if your level is below theirs, and you need lots of grinding to master techniques and spells. The game therefore ensures you have to grind, but can never become overpowered (well, until you find the Secret Rift, at least). |

Some supports can only be obtained during the battle of Mantara, a short event during which it's impossible to grind, or on the Three Arrows, a One-Time Dungeon, and some pieces of equipment can only be obtained by beating the Three Arrows without triggering the alarm. |

Party in My Pocket: Averted out of battle with the active party members, the ones you're not controlling follow the one you play as. Played straight with the inactive ones, who just disappear. Also played straight whenever a battle starts: you only see the character you're controlling, the other active characters help you with supports but don't physically appear. This trope is also inverted in that the same thing happens to enemies, you only see the one currently attacking you even if others are helping it with supports. |

Informed Equipment: The playable characters' models stay the same for the whole game no matter their equipment, even though every piece has a different illustration in the menu. For instance, Chado may wear a blue bandana in the menu but his model will always wear a red one. This results in Armored Villains, Unarmored Heroes, as Ayron and many other foes visibly wear armor. |

All Gendyans living near the Shiyawo mountain fear the Korguen, which is the whole point of the "Scooby-Doo" Hoax the Korguen turns out to be. Even Kayenne and Askel, who are not even Gendyans, know its fearsome reputation. |

Artifact Title |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_2b7d29e1 |
comment |
Artifact Title: The track "Defeat the Fleet" was probably intended to play when Ayron's fleet attacks Mantara, hence its title, but in the final game, "We Are Under Attack!" plays instead during this battle and "Defeat the Fleet" is only heard in some earlier fights not involving a fleet. The track "Adorya Station" actually plays at the Gendys Station, the Adorya Station was probably meant to appear when the track was composed, but it's not in the final game. The description of the achievement "Serkan Gear Solid" contains the same mistake. The track "Chaolito", which plays in the Isolitos' village, refers to the name they had at some point during the game's development, not to the one they have in the final game. |

Game-Breaking Bug |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_33ca811a |
comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Several, unfortunately, due to the game's unfinished state: There are ways to make the game Unintentionally Unwinnable with Script Breaking: for instance, the Three Arrows contain a room full of soldiers you can fight, but you're actually supposed to solve a puzzle to get rid of them. If you kill them (which is possible and not even that hard at that point) instead of solving the puzzle, a dialogue will later fail to trigger, crashing the game. If you saved in the meantime, you're screwed. The force field delimiting the battle area sometimes fails to despawn after a battle, trapping the player and forcing them to reload their save. Before a patch fixed this, it was possible to keep levelling past the Cap, which would eventually result in the characters reverting to level 1. |

Bonus Dungeon |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_34ffa400 |
comment |
Bonus Dungeon: Two of them: The Room of Nine Pillars, where you can find the Superboss Reize and powerful equipment, spells and techniques. You actually need to visit it six times to fully beat it, as it has six different doors hidden here and there on Gendys that require a high affinity for a different element each to open: each door leads to a switch that makes more of the room reachable, and Reize can be fought after they're all activated. The Secret Rift, where you can find the Sister of Secrets and fight the Superboss Rennerd. It also has the game's strongest enemies and therefore doubles as a Peninsula of Power Leveling. |

He also normally can't pick you up if the party is inside a dungeon but breaks this rule after the battle against Sabba by directly picking up the party from the Shiyawo's summit. He can't do it again if you revisit this dungeon, unless you go all the way to the summit againnote This was added in an update to prevent players from accidentally softlocking themselves, he originally couldn't do it again at all.. |

When Kayenne asks him and Chado if they wish to go home rather than go after Ayron before he can strike again, he refuses before Chado does. |

comment |
Schizo Tech: Frequent but somewhat justified, first in that the shi's discovery probably resulted in technology evolving differently on Mahera, second in that Mahera's explosion presumably caused significant technological regression. Even though Gendyans have the technology to build airships, they don't seem to use other vehicles and the most common way to travel on Gendys appears to be on amosback. Artillery exists on Mahera, for instance the party has to fire cannons during the battle of Mantara, but personal firearms don't appear and soldiers just use melee weapons and short-range spells. |

His goal at the beginning of the game is to escort Rosalya to his people to investigate her curse, but neither the game nor Crossroad explain how he met her in the first place. We're never told what happened to Adjin after Terra condemned him to never return to the shi and why he now goes by Ayron. Whether he was always a powerful prince is unknown, and so is how he became one if he wasn't. |

| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_450c5a85 |
comment |
Alternate Continuity: Confusingly, Crossroad serves as a prequel to the game and was advertised as such, but is also set in a different continuity which often contradicts the game's story (for instance, Poky intentionally jumps from the Asanao when it's about to crash in the game, but he falls accidentally in the manga). It's also slightly Truer to the Text, as it features a few elements from The Shiness that the game didn't keep, like Askel's Mind Control powers or the Adoryans' anti-shi handcuffs. |

Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting: Chado and Poky already know basic martial arts when the game begins, and item descriptions reveal that everyone on their home meteora Kimpao has to learn some, for unexplained reasons. |

You All Look Familiar: Human and gromiz models are often recycled, all isolitos use the same model, and all isolitos besides IsoKaralo use the same textures. Averted with the wakis in Crossroad, who are all distinct. Also averted with the shelks, though we only see three of them. |

comment |
The Unfought: The serkan that corrupted Altonataros is dormant when the party reaches Laotan-Piki-Lanku, so while they fight and defeat Altonataros, they don't wake the serkan and leave the city without fighting it, even though destroying it would presumably rid a large part of Gendys from the dark shi. As Terra can feel the massive amounts of dark shi the serkan produces and warns Chado not to stay near it, the party presumably deems it too dangerous to fight on their own. |

Would Hurt a Child: No foe has qualms about attacking Chado and Poky either, and Ayron also seems to intend to kill Chado, as he's Terra's summoned one. Adult party members can also fight Sabba's abducted children, though they just flee when defeated and can't be killed, unlike the game's other enemies. |

Paper-Thin Disguise: Chado, Poky and Kayenne convince Rachigrin they're gromiz simply by wearing gromiz masks. Justified in that Rachigrin is one of the stupidest gromiz. Rosalya ran away from her kingdom in a disguise merely consisting of a turban to hide her hair. She's immediately recognized when she arrives at the Gendys Station in Crossroad. |

It's also the element of choice of her father Meos, her sister Altania and most Adoryan soldiers, who even wield electrified weapons. In Crossroad, Adorya uses lightning as its main energy source. |

When the party first meets him, Ajoss has just abducted Skulfon to obtain the password to Queen Arisme's crypt from him as the first part of a plan to atone for his mistake that caused the downfall of the kingdom of Meonis. However, this happened fifteen cycles ago, and he has apparently never done anything to repent or to convince his wife Vrynn he wasn't a traitor in the meantime. If you take the hidden Third Option when you have to choose which of the two to side with, she forgives him within minutes. Worse, you have no involvement, they just run into each other and decide to discuss, which seemingly never happened before in 15 cycles. |

Duel Boss: Poky fights Skulfon alone if you choose to fight him when Poky first meets him. Chado fights Askel alone after the latter captures Rosalya. Rosalya fights Ayron alone after he knocks out the rest of the party. |

Adaptational Superpower Change |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_538273bd |
comment |
Adaptational Superpower Change: Anyone could see and hear the Shiness in the original manga, there was no such thing as a summoned one, Chado was therefore The Unchosen One. In the original manga, Chado was an air shi user and Kayenne was a fire shi user, whereas in the game, Kayenne becomes the party's air shi user and Chado becomes an earth shi user, this might have been done to make Chado less similar to Naruto, of whom his game version is basically an Expy. Chado could also use air shi to give himself Super-Speed, a power he lacks in the game. In addition to his plant shi powers, Askel/Youko had Mind Control and dark shi powers as well as the ability to use plant shi to grow vegetal blades in the manga, he lacks them in the game, though he does have them in Crossroad's Alternate Continuity. Overall, the equivalent of magic on Mahera, the shi, has fewer forms in the game: it can't be used for Mind Control or to turn people into stone, there's no gravity shinote At least none that any character in the game or in Crossroad is known to be able to use, but this form probably does exist to some extent to explain how the Maherian vehicles and Mantara fly, it's just not mentioned., no light shi and no steam shi. These limitations are often cases of Pragmatic Adaptation, since some of the shi techniques shown in the manga would be extremely unbalanced, for instance some powerful earth shi users could use their powers to walk through walls. |

Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Chado is only 4'5" (roughly 1.35 m), but he can lift boulders larger than himself. Whether he can do that because he's a summoned one or any physically fit waki with a good mastery of earth shi can do the same is unknown, although when he uses his Shi-Menhiro technique against a bully at school in Crossroad, nobody seems to find this power strange. |

Low-level enemies don't attack you if your level is too high, even when the plot says they should. For instance, if you've been Level Grinding in the Secret Rift before going to the Three Arrows, the latter's guards won't try to stop you from hijacking the trains. |

Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe: The Great Poui speaks that way in the French version due to his great age, his speech is basically mangled, very inaccurate archaic French. Oddly enough, Terra speaks normal French, even though she's supposed to be as old as Mahera itself. However, this trope is notably averted in the Maherian version, where Terra does speak an older form of the language. |

Power Incontinence: What Rosalya calls her curse causes her to have "fits" of powerful shi explosions.

Fantastic Racism: Both the game and Crossroad feature shelk-hating Adoryan soldiers, Ayron also had this trait in the original manga, but his counterpart in the game and Crossroad seems to lack it.

Askel shares his plant shi powers, rose motif and vine whip with Kurama. This is one of the reasons why he was renamed, as his original name Youko was too close to Y�konote The other reason was that Samir Rebib realized that in addition to meaning "demon fox" in Japanese, Y�ko is also a feminine name.. |

Disc-One Nuke |

Meos's palace contains a secret room that can only be accessed with a password. This password is "Altania", which is the name of a character who doesn't appear in the game and is never mentioned, you're supposed to know her name from the tie-in manga Crossroad, even though nothing in it connects her to Meos (though the game at least gives you some clues). If you've never read the manga, which is likely as it can only be read in French through the Wayback Machine, you either have to look at a guide or waste time brute-forcing the code. At least the piece of equipment found in this room is arguably a Disc-One Nuke. |

Phony Psychic: When Terra detects the dark shi stream that prevents Irys's call from reaching Mantara, Chado pretends to be the one able to detect dark shi to convey her message to the Mantarians without revealing her existence. |

Find the Cure! |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_6134738 |
comment |
After reaching Mantara, the party is tasked with going to the Shiyawo mountain to find a cure to Rosalya's illness. A sidequest requires you to fly back to Mantara before you find the cure (though there are good reasons to do so, as along the way, the party can find disciplines that have to be deciphered by Irys or Kaorys to be used) and becomes unavailable afterwards, and is initiated by finding a small piece of paper on the ground away from any NPC worth talking to. |

Sequel Hook: The game ends with Chado still seeking the Lands of Life in a new ship. When he tells Terra he's afraid of what awaits him, she cryptically answers "one day, we have to face up to who we are... and when that day comes, I hope you will forgive me". Unfortunately, no sequel was made. |

comment |
A Long Time Ago, in a Galaxy Far, Far Away...: The game is set on the planet Mahera, which has human inhabitants, and the similarities with Earth end there, though some elements of the Maherian cultures are seemingly inspired by real-life civilizations. However, Earth seems to exist, as the Developer's Room near the Giant's Hall contains a meteorite which might come from another world according to Rimite and is covered with names of backers written in the Latin alphabet. The Maherian guide also implies that the game's story is actually the translation of a Maherian book that somehow ended up on Earth. |

Gameplay and Story Segregation |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_6320eced |
comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Low-level enemies don't attack you if your level is too high, even when the plot says they should. For instance, if you've been Level Grinding in the Secret Rift before going to the Three Arrows, the latter's guards won't try to stop you from hijacking the trains. The enemies found on the Gendys Plain also completely ignore you if you're riding an amos, regardless of your level. All techniques are considered non-elemental and deal damage not based on their users and targets' elemental affinities, even when they blatantly do involve elements, like Chado's menhir throws. Xaham can't fly you to places you haven't reached on foot first, so he can't directly fly the party to the Shiyawo mountain or anywhere nearby during the quest for the snow bloodor even though you're supposed to find it as soon as possible, but he can once the party reaches it. This is only justified once, when the party reaches the Gendys Station: he can't land there until the party turns the station's defence system off from the inside. He also normally can't pick you up if the party is inside a dungeon but breaks this rule after the battle against Sabba by directly picking up the party from the Shiyawo's summit. He can't do it again if you revisit this dungeon, unless you go all the way to the summit againnote This was added in an update to prevent players from accidentally softlocking themselves, he originally couldn't do it again at all.. The gromiz will still attack you if you choose to let the friendly Zlog become their new leader. Similarly, Adoryan soldiers will still attack the party on sight after Rosalya joins it, they'll even try to kill Rosalya herself, even though they're supposed to bring her back to Adorya alive and to know her face. The access to the Gendys Plain is protected by puzzles, which are actually a tutorial to learn how to use Askel's attracthorn and are justified as security systems the gromiz are too dumb to get past. And yet, gromiz can be fought all over the plain. Terra briefly appears as an NPC after the battle against Sabba, interacting with her just replays a dialogue. The problem is that it's the only time any party member and not just Chado can interact with her, and that characters automatically look at nearby NPCs: the developers forgot to add an exception for Terra, so Poky, Kayenne and Askel will look at her even though they aren't summoned ones and therefore can't see her. Askel is seen riding an amos while looking for Rosalya in the Forest of Meonis in a cutscene. And yet, the only place where you can ride an amos in the game is the Gendys Plain, it despawns if you try to enter the forest with it. Kayenne is supposed to be a very knowledgeable shelk who has been around for more than a hundred cycles, but when he joins the party, his level is very low and he only knows a very small number of spells and techniques. Conversely, when Rosalya joins the party much later in the game, her level is very high and she knows a considerable number of spells and techniques even though she's not supposed to be able to control her powers and spent her childhood in a Gilded Cage where she presumably never learned how to fight, Kayenne and the Mantarians are never shown teaching her. A possible explanation is that Ranahel had her learn spells in an unsuccessful attempt to help her control her powers, but it doesn't explain why she doesn't defend herself when Askel tries to capture her (however, in the unpublished seventh chapter of Crossroad, she does use a fire spell against him, albeit unsuccessfully). Chado is shown to be strong enough to lift menhirs larger than himself, but he never uses his strength to lift or move any other heavy object, puzzles involving these require using Kayenne's telekinesis instead. Relatedly, Kayenne's telekinesis is a lot less useful in practice than in theory because it only works on Chado's menhirs and on objects bearing a telekinesis symbol, no in-universe justification is ever given. He also can't use it on some objects that must be moved with Askel's attracthorn instead even though it should logically also do the trick. Furthermore, he never uses this power for anything in the story or in battle, only during out-of-battle gameplay. |

Plot Hole |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_6331ba26 |
comment |
Plot Hole: Several in both the game and Crossroad, often owing to the incomplete story and multiple rewrites during the development. As the game's and Crossroad's plots differ considerably from the original manga's, most also count as Adaptation-Induced Plot Holes. As Irys and Nashoba explain to Chado and Poky, the war between Gendys and Adorya began when Gendys became corrupted with dark shi and the Adoryans refused to grant asylum to the Gendyans who tried to flee it because they believed that they would spread the dark shi. What doesn't make sense is that the Adoryans are trying to invade Gendys even though they regard the dark shi as a threat. How Terra ended up on Kimpao in the first place even though the Shiness supposedly can't travel between meteoras on their own (otherwise Terra wouldn't need Chado to bring her to the Lands of Life) is never explained. She hasn't always been on this meteora, since she mentions having visited the Forest of Meonis before, gives Chado some exposition regarding Adorya in Crossroad (she even mentions that Adorya is trying to invade Gendys, which is a rather recent event, the war only started 15 cycles at most before the game begins) and had other summoned ones on other meteoras before Chado. The cause of Rosalya's fits of Power Incontinence is never made clear. Though this is probably related to her being a summoned one, it doesn't explain why the same doesn't happen to Chado. This could be linked to the fact that she has never met the Shiness who summoned her, unlike Chado, but the exact rules are unknown. Furthermore, Crossroad implies that the Adoryans' anti-shi handcuffs (which don't appear in the game's continuity) can prevent Rosalya's fits, but never explains why she doesn't simply wear them constantly and still had to grow up confined in an explosion-proof room. When the party first meets him, Ajoss has just abducted Skulfon to obtain the password to Queen Arisme's crypt from him as the first part of a plan to atone for his mistake that caused the downfall of the kingdom of Meonis. However, this happened fifteen cycles ago, and he has apparently never done anything to repent or to convince his wife Vrynn he wasn't a traitor in the meantime. If you take the hidden Third Option when you have to choose which of the two to side with, she forgives him within minutes. Worse, you have no involvement, they just run into each other and decide to discuss, which seemingly never happened before in 15 cycles. If you choose to partake in Askel's humiliation on Mantara, he leaves after the party finds the snow bloodor and doesn't fly back to Mantara with Xaham and the rest of the team. Immediately afterwards, he's on Mantara when Ayron attacks whether he stayed with the party or not, even though Mantara's location is only known to a few trusted pilots like Xaham and the Mantarians turn the city invisible when the party warns them that Ayron's squadron is approaching. The squadron itself can't have picked him up since it flies past the mountain before he leaves the party. Even though the Adoryans are shown to have airships on Gendys, they never have them fly over the Forest of Meonis to search for Rosalya and just send soldiers to search it on foot instead, no justification is ever given. The fact that it therefore takes them hours, if not days, to find the Mantarians' camp even though they didn't even try to camouflage it makes this even stupider. Chado and Poky somehow managed to build three spaceships even though there are no spaceships on Kimpao, so they had no way to get the parts. Even if they had somehow built every single part on their own or cannibalized other machines, how they managed to build the three Asanaos so quickly (how long it took them isn't mentioned, but since they don't seem to age between the chapter in Crossroad where Poky becomes interested in traveling with Chado and the one where the Asanao-3 takes off, it was supposedly less than a cycle) is never explained, neither is how they could afford building the 3 ships even though they're still children. This is definitely an Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole, since in The Shiness, the ship was built by Chado's grandfather instead and he mentions it took him his entire life. Even though Ayron wants to kill the summoned ones, he spares Chado after defeating him on Mantara in spite of the fact that he has plenty of time to finish him off before Rosalya can reach him. He doesn't even do anything after he beats Chado, he just waits for Rosalya. |

Armor Is Useless: Even though all Adoryan soldiers wear full armor and helmets, they can be defeated with mere punches and kicks. Averted with Ayron, however, as his armor is indeed very effective against physical attacks, though it's still vulnerable to shi attacks. |

Permanently Missable Content: Some sidequests become unavailable after certain portions of the game. Some supports can only be obtained during the battle of Mantara, a short event during which it's impossible to grind, or on the Three Arrows, a One-Time Dungeon, and some pieces of equipment can only be obtained by beating the Three Arrows without triggering the alarm. Aserys, a Mantarian barkeep, sells special items that make catching critters easier, but she stops selling them after the battle of Mantara. |

Animal Wrongs Group: The Optional Boss Gittibris is a crazed animal rights defender who protects gambaris, which are common enemies and considered pests by everyone but her. She got a bounty put on her head after killing several gambari hunters and has to be attracted by having the party fight gambaris repeatedly. |

Only One Name: All of the game's main characters seem to only have one name, only a few unimportant NPCs such as the biologist Feindar Fourbépines have surnames. Averted in The Shiness, however, where the protagonists had surnames. |

Missing Mom |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_66dfe36a |
comment |
Missing Mom: Chado's mother died sometime before he met Terra. When he asked Terra if the shi can resurrect his mother, she let him believe he might see her again if he finds the Lands of Life, this became his motivation for leaving Kimpao. The game ends before he finds them, though he has a vision of his mother after defeating Sabba. Queen Arisme, the mother of Irys, Kaorys and Altania, died at some point during the 15 cycles between the fall of the kingdom of Meonis and the beginning of the game, and is buried in a cemetery in the Forest of Meonis. |

Punny Name: Ayron's name is obviously a pun on "iron", fitting his metal motif. Rennerd's name is a Portmanteau of renard (meaning "fox" in French) and "nerd", as he's a fox-like spirit with Nerd Glasses who Cannot Talk to Women. Skulfon's name is a Portmanteau of "skull" (Skulfon is undead, only his skeleton remains) and bouffon (meaning "jester" in French). Cohayas are shellfish whose name is a pun on Coraya, a French brand of surimi. |

Elemental Eye Colors: Generally averted (for instance, Chado's eyes are blue like water shi, but he's an earth shi user), the few cases where this happens are probably coincidental, with the possible exception of Kayenne: he was a fire shi user in the original manga and had red eyes, but in the game, he's an air shi user and has green eyes, hinting that shelks' eye colors are linked to their elemental affinities. However, since we don't get to see Mingane and Nashoba use shi, this theory isn't confirmed. |

Guide Dang It! |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 |
comment |
Guide Dang It!: There's a hidden way to make Ajoss and Vrynn reconcile, but it's not easy to figure out because it involves talking to invisible NPCs who have a model in dialogues but not outside. Meos's palace contains a secret room that can only be accessed with a password. This password is "Altania", which is the name of a character who doesn't appear in the game and is never mentioned, you're supposed to know her name from the tie-in manga Crossroad, even though nothing in it connects her to Meos (though the game at least gives you some clues). If you've never read the manga, which is likely as it can only be read in French through the Wayback Machine, you either have to look at a guide or waste time brute-forcing the code. At least the piece of equipment found in this room is arguably a Disc-One Nuke. Rosalya can reveal invisible doors leading to powerful items, but you can only find them by listening to a sound that plays when they're close. Unless you waste a lot of time revisiting every place, including already-cleared dungeons, you will need a guide to find them all, the one on the Three Arrows is even permanently missable. Worse, she can also reveal hidden chests, but unlike the doors, they don't make any sound. After reaching Mantara, the party is tasked with going to the Shiyawo mountain to find a cure to Rosalya's illness. A sidequest requires you to fly back to Mantara before you find the cure (though there are good reasons to do so, as along the way, the party can find disciplines that have to be deciphered by Irys or Kaorys to be used) and becomes unavailable afterwards, and is initiated by finding a small piece of paper on the ground away from any NPC worth talking to. |

Chado can perfectly understand Terra even though she's thousands of cycles old and speaks an older form of Maherian, whose modern forms are also almost unchanged and all mutually intelligible despite the considerable time gap. This was done deliberately by Maherian's creators Déborah Lebon and Clément Michard, otherwise the plot couldn't start. |

Everything Fades: All common enemies disappear in a puff of smoke after you defeat them (except Sabba's abducted children, who just run away). Whether they actually die is unclear, as the game establishes that a bloodor (a Maherian flower) will grow where someone died, but this doesn't happen when you defeat a common enemy, even a sapient one. Critters will also vanish in a puff of smoke if you take too long to catch them. |

Adaptational Badass |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_736d791f |
comment |
Adaptational Badass: Rosalya/Rosa was neither a fire shi user nor a summoned one in the manga, whereas the game turns her into a Pretty Princess Powerhouse. Poky wasn't a fighter in the manga and was just Chado's Cowardly Sidekick. In the game, he's also cowardly at first, but this doesn't prevent him from fighting alongside the rest of the team during the entire game. Ayron relied on this servants to do the fighting for him in The Shiness and was a Non-Action Big Bad, whereas in the game, he's a powerful Magic Knight the party fights directly. |

comment |
The Cuckoolander Was Right: When the party first visits the town of Shjue, a man named Klaig approaches them and frantically tries to convince them that he's Lord Altonataros's son, which isn't believed by anyone but turns out to be true, the party therefore has to ask for his help to enter the palace of Laotan-Piki-Lanku, as he owns one of the medallions needed to open its gates. He also correctly claims that Mahera was once a single planet, which the villagers also dismiss as nonsense. |

Les Collaborateurs: Some Gendyans willingly joined the Adoryan army, one of them, Helran, even got rid of all the evidence of his Gendyan origins. The poacher Bagogue, who seems to support the Mantarians at first, also decides that there's more money to be made on Adorya after most of the Mantarian freedom fighters perish in Ayron's assault and prepares to leave Gendys. |

Aliens Never Invented Democracy: Inverted with most of the game's races, as all four human nations appearing or mentioned in it (the fallen Meonis, Mantara, Adorya and Irallium) are monarchies while the shelks, the wakis and the isolitos are implied to lack monarchs. However, the gromiz do have a dictator, Zagrom. The party meets Ragan, the former chief of the gromiz, but whether he was elected is unknown. |

| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_81f909f2 |
comment |
Dishing Out Dirt: Chado starts the game with a high earth affinity, which is justified in that he's the Shiness of earth's summoned one. He can also summon menhirs and use them as projectiles, but this doesn't consume shi and counts as a physical attack, oddly enough. Earth is also the gromiz's element of choice, and they used their mastery of earth shi to dig their underground lair. |

What Happened to the Mouse?: The party defeats and overthrows Zagrom without killing him, his fate after they leave the Gromiz Lair isn't revealed, he never reappears and is never mentioned again. We're never told where the civilians who fled Mantara during Ayron's assault went, and they're never encountered again. After Rosalya suffers a fit at the Gendys Station and incapacitates Altania in Crossroad, Altania doesn't reappear in the manga, never appears in the game at all and her status is never mentioned afterwards, so we don't know what happens to her after Kayenne and Rosalya escape her. |

Protagonist-Centered Morality: The Mantarians order Chado and Poky to fight as Child Soldiers for them without any repercussions just because the Adoryans are the ones who are invading. While hijacking the Three Arrows, the party has to get rid of some Adoryan soldiers by clogging chimneys to suffocate them, apparently to death. There's no way to get past them more peacefully and they're not given a chance to surrender. The party faces no consequences. |

Backtracking: An often-critized aspect of the game, many sidequests require players to go back to already-explored areas, and sometimes already-beaten dungeons. While calling Xaham can shorten the trips, it can't be done in dungeons, so you can't exit them quickly after finding what you were looking for. |

comment |
Child Prodigy: Poky built a spaceship at the age of ten. He also somehow invented a shi generator, which is thought by Xaham to be impossible when he mentions it, since the shi is Mahera's Life Energy and should therefore be impossible to synthesize. While he's not as smart as Poky, Chado also qualifies, as he knows how to fly the spaceship Poky invented at the age of eleven. With no prior experience. |

After losing her son, Sabba became corrupted by the dark shi, poisoned her husband and started abducting children to raise them as her own. After the party defeats her, she sees Chado and hallucinates that she's finally seeing her son again. This causes Chado to also hallucinate that he's seeing his mother again, so he hugs her and she peacefully returns to the shi. |

Continuity Reboot |

comment |
Continuity Reboot: The game wasn't intended to simply adapt the original manga, it was supposed to start a new continuity that would replace the manga's. Confusingly, Crossroad was also intended to replace the manga's continuity, but is an Alternate Continuity separate from the game's despite serving as its prequel. In other words, the original continuity was rebooted into two mutually exclusive continuities which were intended to run parallelly. |

Story Branching: The player is often asked to choose between two options (with an occasional third, though it's usually much harder to figure out), and one is generally crueler than the other (for instance, you have to choose between sparing Grorim's life and finishing him off after defeating him). These choices change how both minor and major events play out and determine the game's ending. |

Greater-Scope Villain: Altonataros indirectly caused Zagrom's ascension to power by trying to corrupt Irys when Ajoss threw the dark shi-infused grimoire he sent her into the Gromiz Lair, which in turn caused the downfall of Meos's kingdom and the refugee crisis that started the war between Gendys and Adorya. Altonataros himself turned evil when a serkan corrupted him, though whether it's actually sentient is unclear. |

comment |
Exposed to the Elements: The party climbs the Shiyawo mountain without changing into something warmer, though this is justified for Chado, Poky and Kayenne since they have fur. Xaham even lands his ship near the summit and gets off it while shirtless. |

comment |
Sensor Character: Terra, as well as Kayenne to a lesser extent, can detect dark shi, this proves useful when the party has to locate a dark shi stream that prevents Irys from calling Mantara. Chado first pretends that he's the one who has this power in order to not reveal he's Terra's summoned one. |

Leitmotif: Several, the most common is basically the game's main theme and elements of it are heard in the title screen theme, in Kaorys's theme, in the Gendys Plain's theme, in the ending theme and many others. With the exception of Kayenne, every playable character has a theme. The Shiness also had one which could be listened to on its website, but it wasn't reused for the game. |

Askel is 20 and already a notorious mercenary employed by King Ranahel himself. This was justified in The Shiness, where he used the shi to Mind Control his way into the king's service because he wanted to assassinate him, this plot point seems to have been dropped in the game, as Askel isn't shown to have any mind control powers or intention to kill the king in it. |

Route Boss: Depending on your choices in the Forest of Meonis, the boss you'll have to fight to enter Meos's palace will be either Ajoss, Arkaros or Vrynn. Depending on your choices in the Pouis Forest, the boss you'll have to fight to reach the Great Poui will be either Bagogue or Ervea. However, when Bagogue is later encountered again in the Giant's Hall, he's a Skippable Boss instead, you can simply refuse to fight him. Depending on your choices throughout the whole game, the final battle will be against Ayron and either Irys or Kaorys. |

One-Hit Kill: Touching one of Sabba's ghosts during the phase preceding the actual battle against her instantly defeats the active party member unless he's protected by the light of her husband's ghost.

Similarly, the red details on his original outfit were changed to green. Askel's eyes are green in the game, but his manga counterpart Youko's were yellow. Rosalya's hair is pink in the game, while her manga counterpart Rosa's was more purplish. Rosa also had green eyes, while Rosalya's are grey, blue or pink Depending on the Artist. Ayron's eyes were blue in the manga and his hair was white, but in the game, they're yellow and silver respectively. |

Even the name of the Final Boss, Wio Irys/Kaorys is wrong: wio means "dark" in Maherian, but adjectives are supposed to follow names and nouns in this language, not to precede them, an error the names of the tier 2 and 3 techniques also contain. |

For the Evulz: Apparently Zagrom's only motivation for destroying Meos's kingdom, as he didn't conquer it afterwards and just left it abandoned. He even gave Meos a Sadistic Choice between having his family killed and putting a curse on himself just because he could. |

comment |
Single Language Planet: Maherian is the only language of Mahera, it's spoken by every species on every meteora and uses the same alphabet everywhere. The Shiness, who are as old as Mahera itself, also speak an older form of Maherian, which implies that it has always been the planet's only language. However, it has several mutually intelligible dialects instead of being the exact same language everywhere, each of them is spoken by a different speciesnote Only three of them were created for the game, the humans', the shelks' and the wakis'. Characters from other species have no voice lines, but they presumably speak their own dialects.. |

Ditzy Genius: Poky is the ten-cycle-old Child Prodigy who built the Asanao-3... and apparently forgot the parachutes. And when the Asanao-3 is about to crash, he jumps anywaynote In the game, at least. In Crossroad, he falls accidentally.. Furthermore, in Crossroad, he miscalculates the amount of oxygen he and Chado would need for their journey, and when the ship starts running out of oxygen, he erroneously believes he and Chado will suffer Explosive Decompression, though the latter part is probably an error from the writers themselves. |

Adaptational Backstory Change |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_ba46585b |
comment |
Adaptational Backstory Change: Basically everything: In the game, Chado and Poky leave Kimpao without their parents' permission on a ship Poky invented. In The Shiness, they instead volunteer for testing a new ship invented by Chado's grandfather Yandor. Furthermore, Chado wasn't looking for the Lands of Life in the original manga since his mother was alive in it, he and Poky just wanted to go home after they mistakenly landed on the wrong meteora and were effectively Pinball Protagonists who had no significant involvement in anything that happened after their arrival since they were arrested almost immediately afterwards and accused of abducting Rosa, then spent the rest of the story in jail or as Condemned Contestants. Askel's counterpart in The Shiness, Youko, was arguably the manga's true main character. He used the shi to Mind Control his way into King Ranahel's counterpart Yanos's service because he wanted to assassinate him and avenge his parents, but he became hesitant when he met his daughter Rosa, Rosalya's counterpart. All of this seems to have been dropped in the game. Rosalya's counterpart, Rosa, wasn't a summoned one, she tried to flee merely because she wanted freedom rather than being a princess and because her father was planning to marry her to Ayron. She also failed to flee her meteora, since Youko defeated Chado when the latter tried to help her. Kayenne had no involvement in Rosa's escape, the party meets him in jail after he unsuccessfully tried to steal the Shiness of Earth from King Yanos because he believed it would bring balance to the shi. Ayron wasn't a former summoned one who became evil and wasn't Barred from the Afterlife for using forbidden forms of shi, he just wanted to find the Shiness to Take Over the World with their power rather than have Revenge by killing the summoned ones. His name was also actually Ayron rather than Adjin. There was no war in The Shiness, Adorya's counterpart Pandora was at peace and Gendys didn't have a counterpart at all. |

Meos was cursed after being given a Sadistic Choice by Zagrom and eating a sacred arachna to save his family. The resulting dark shi gradually turned him into a half-man, half-arachna monster and caused him to lose most of his humanity. After the heroes defeat him without killing him, he's given a Mercy Kill by his own daughter Irys. |

Berserk Button: Zagrom hates being called an "ahik", as his minion Unoom learned the hard way. It's a very effective insult against him during the insult duel between him and Chado. If you don't want a menhir in your face, do not call Chado's bandana old-fashioned, as Poky finds out, and as Crossroad shows, do not talk about his mother. |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_bce16d24 |
comment |
Even though Ayron wants to kill the summoned ones, he spares Chado after defeating him on Mantara in spite of the fact that he has plenty of time to finish him off before Rosalya can reach him. He doesn't even do anything after he beats Chado, he just waits for Rosalya. |

Indo-European Alien Language: The conlangers Déborah Lebon and Clément Michard went to great lengths to avert this, Maherian has various grammatical features not found in Indo-European languages such as base-twelve numbers, a verb-object-subject word order similar to the one found in many Austronesian and Mayan languages, and a nonconcatenative morphology akin to the one found in Semitic languages. |

We never see what it looks like or what it's made of, a secret room of Meos's abandoned palace contains several open chests full of what appears to be gold but the party can't take any, so whether they contain uzus or some older currency which is no longer valuable is unclear. |

Cataclysm Backstory: Two of these: the first is the shattering of Mahera, which was caused by the overexploitation of the shi, which resulted in the elements' balance being broken... but none of this is mentioned in the game. The second, the corruption of Gendys by the dark shi, is more relevant to the game's plot, as it triggered the fall of the kingdom of Meonis and the war between Gendys and Adorya. |

Furthermore, Crossroad shows that Askel despises Ayron and implies that he isn't thrilled when he has to work with him to find Rosalya. |

Dem Bones: The party encounters both friendly and hostile skeletons called "wandering memories", who became undead because they died somewhere a bloodor (a rose-like flower that grows where someone died) can't take root. It's implied that one also needs to have an Unfinished Business to become a wandering memory, which would explain why they don't outnumber the living. |

Shout-Out |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: The way Chado carries his menhirs on his back and throws them is a homage to Obélix. Askel shares his plant shi powers, rose motif and vine whip with Kurama. This is one of the reasons why he was renamed, as his original name Youko was too close to Y�konote The other reason was that Samir Rebib realized that in addition to meaning "demon fox" in Japanese, Y�ko is also a feminine name.. The giant egg Mantara hatched from can be seen resting atop a mountain. A doodle resembling Naruto can be seen on Chado's school desk in Crossroad. In Crossroad, Poky has never seen humans before leaving Kimpao and pictures them as monstrous skinless giants. Crossroad shows Ayron turning his finger into a metal spike to stab one of his minions through his head, exactly like the T-1000. A resident of Shjue is named Kaan and a sidequest involving him is titled "The Anger of Kaan". An archaeologist the party can meet at the Giant's Hall is named Nalluka Jones. An NPC who can challenge the party to a race through the Forest of Meonis is named Mitrabeoj, a slight deformation of Joe Bar Team written backwards. An achievement awarded for hijacking the Three Arrows without being spotted is called "Serkan Gear Solid". This one makes more sense in French, the original name is Le Serkan Solide, meaning "The Solid Serkan", which sounds nearly identical to Le Serpent Solide, a literal translation of "The Solid Snake". Another achievement awarded for discovering ten interest points is called "Elementary, my dear Poky". Another awarded for catching every type of critter is called "Catch 'em all!", this is also the name of a sidequest consisting of catching some specific critters. The one awarded for defeating Ayron is called "Iron Man". In the French version, when told that the Opalin Bayou he lives in is a "slimy mudhole", Ragan angrily answers "My home this is!". Cohayas are telepathic molluscs than can transmit messages, exactly like the Den-Den Mushi from One Piece. |

Terra is also Chado's mentor to some extent, especially in Crossroadnote Unpublished pages from the unreleased 7th issue even show her teach Chado how to summon a menhir. |

Falling Damage |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_c9cab11 |
comment |
Falling Damage: The party can take some if they fall from too high out of battle, and both players and enemies will take massive damage if they fall into a Bottomless Pit during a battle, which can happen if it started near one. As the game's Jump Physics aren't great, this mechanic arguably qualifies as Fake Difficulty at times. |

Two Lines, No Waiting: Crossroad follows two stories, Chado and Poky's departure from Kimpao and Kayenne and Rosalya's escape from Adorya. They first intersect shortly after the game starts when Poky meets Kayenne and Rosalya while looking for Chado, and they merge when Chado learns that Rosalya also wants to find the Lands of Life and decides to continue his journey with her. |

Magic by Any Other Name |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_cb1fe02e |

Magic by Any Other Name: Maherian magic is called the shi, and is technically Mahera's Life Energy. Though the shi is thought to be impossible to replicate, Poky mentions that he somehow managed to invent a generator of artificial shi to power the Asanao-3, a feat akin to building a Perpetual Motion Machine. |

Sigil Spam |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_d026cad8 |
comment |
Sigil Spam: Expect to see the Adoryan sigil on anything the Adoryans build or wear. This sigil already existed in The Shiness, in which Adorya was known as Pandora, and was even more common, since it was both Pandora's sigil and the symbol of earth shi, whose Shiness Pandora controlled. The Gendyan sigil and the arachna-shaped sigil of the fallen kingdom of Meonis are also found everywhere inside Meos's palace. The four interlaced circles symbolizing the shi appear in many places relevant to the plot, like in the game's opening or Kayenne's Info Dumps in Crossroad, or the gameplay, like the diagram showing a character's elemental affinities in the menu, they're also frequently used as a background decoration in menus and promotional artwork and serve as the game's spinning loading icon. |

Defend Command: There's a guard button, but it's almost useless, first because parrying is more effective (guarding only reduces damage whereas parrying can negate it when done properly), second because you can't move while guarding, if you try, this will trigger a dodge instead. |

Improbable Age |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_d33456e7 |
comment |
Improbable Age: Chado is 11 and Poky is 10, yet the former already knows how to fly a spaceship (to be fair, he's The Chosen One) and the latter how to build one, and during the battle of Mantara, they're both tasked with fighting to defend the city even though every other child is evacuated. Askel is 20 and already a notorious mercenary employed by King Ranahel himself. This was justified in The Shiness, where he used the shi to Mind Control his way into the king's service because he wanted to assassinate him, this plot point seems to have been dropped in the game, as Askel isn't shown to have any mind control powers or intention to kill the king in it. Meos's three daughters are all in their early 20s (only Irys's exact age is known, she's 23), yet Altania is one of Ranahel's top retainers, Irys is a Warrior Princess leading the Mantarian army and Kaorys is the queen of Mantara. The latter two are justified in that their kingdom was destroyed when they were still children, so they had to learn how to rule earlier than expected. |

Adaptational Wimp: Askel is much weaker than his counterpart Youko from the original manga, as he lacks Youko's Mind Control power and doesn't use his paralyzing bloodor in combat. Chado defeats Askel in the game, whereas in the manga, Youko defeats Chado by paralyzing him and knocking him out. Kayenne is also a lot weaker in the game, as he's no longer a fire shi user: in the manga, he was powerful enough to shield himself from arrows by summoning a fire shield hot enough to melt the arrows in midair. |

Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit": Aside from the fact they're blue, the Maherian "blue apples" look nothing like apples and are kinda spiral-shaped. Chests are a non-living example, the item "chests" found here and there are made of stone and look like snail shells floating above small pillars. How exactly you open them isn't shown, the items just seem to be inside the shells, which disappear when you "open" the chests. |

Chado's mother died sometime before he met Terra. When he asked Terra if the shi can resurrect his mother, she let him believe he might see her again if he finds the Lands of Life, this became his motivation for leaving Kimpao. The game ends before he finds them, though he has a vision of his mother after defeating Sabba. |

Depending on the Artist |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_d83f3588 |
comment |
Depending on the Artist: The characters' outfits are often less detailed in 2D cutscenes. Kayenne is modeled with a white spot on his forehead and brown eyebrows, but in cutscenes and on his in-game portraits, he's drawn without the white spot and with orange eyebrows. On official artworks, he's usually drawn with brown eyebrows but without the white spot. Similarly, the shades of brown used for Chado and Poky's furs in the 2D cutscenes and official artworks tend not to match the ones their models use. Bagogue's model has brown hair, but his portraits are drawn with red hair. Rosalya's model has grey eyes, but the 2D cutscenes and official artworks sometimes use pink or blue instead. The shirus are blue, but on the map screen, they're green. Xaham is modeled with his eyepatch on his left eye, but on his in-game portrait, it's drawn on his right eye. He's also drawn with more facial hair. Similarly to Xaham, Nashoba's right ear is drawn with an Ear Notch in cutscenes, but his model has the notch on his left ear instead, and Mingane is drawn with a braid on the right side of her head, but her model has it on the left side. The official artworks conflict with each other. Nashoba's outfit is also inconsistent: he wears Handwraps of Awesome in some cutscenes and not in others, he's modeled with a sleeve on his left arm, which he doesn't wear in cutscenes, and his model lacks the Badass Cape he wears in cutscenes. Ayron looks more androgynous in Crossroad, whereas he looks more masculine in the game. |

comment |
In My Language, That Sounds Like...: Waki means "armpit" in Japanese. "Poky" can translate as "annoyingly slow" or "stupid" in English, and "Shiness" is obviously a homophone of "shyness". The word "shi" was probably intended to resemble the Chinese word for "vital force", qi, but it ends up sounding exactly like the Japanese word for "death". |

comment |
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Even though wakis and shelks are very rarely seen outside their home meteoras due to the Great Offscreen War between the shelks and the humans and the wakis' lack of interest in space travel, very few Gendyans seem surprised to see Chado, Poky and Kayenne on Gendys. |

Adaptation Name Change: Askel, Rosalya, Ranahel and Mingane were known as Youkonote Samir Rebib renamed him because Youko was too close to Y�ko Kurama., Rosa, Yanos and Siltynote She was possibly renamed because she was originally a fan-made character Samir Rebib canonized. in The Shiness. Chado and Poky's spaceship was named the Kinli-Wakinote From a waki expression meaning "joy and success". in the original manga instead of the Asanao-3. Every single placename was also changed, for instance the planet Mahera was originally known as Orion. Interestingly, there's one sentence in the game's French version where the writers goofed and used Kimpao's old name Hika. The main characters had surnames in The Shiness, whereas they all have Only One Name in the game. The shelks were known as sheiksnote Sheik means "elder" in Arabic, this was probably deliberate, as the shelks are by Samir Rebib's own admission a Fantasy Counterpart Culture of the Arabs. in The Shiness and kept that name for some time during the game's development. |

Contrived Coincidence: Chado and Rosalya, two summoned ones seeking the Lands of Life, happen to leave their home meteoras on the exact same day and to end up in the same forest on the same meteora at the exact same time. Later, Chado meets by happenstance the only person in the world aside from him who can see Terra, Ayron, because he's one of her former summoned ones and the only one still alive. This conveniently allows Chado to discover the truth about his not being Terra's first summoned one and Terra to explain Ayron's true identity, Adjin, to him. |

Culture Chop Suey: What we see of Mahera blends several Western and Eastern (such as a torii-like gate on the Shiyawo mountain or the gromiz's Oni-like and Tengu-like masks) influences. Maherian was designed to sound like a mix of French (especially the human dialect), Arabic (especially the shelk dialect) and Japanese (especially the waki dialect). |

Normal battle themes tend to be used for minor bosses, but major ones usually have their own themes, all the Optional Bosses with a bounty on their heads share the special theme "Hunter Punker", and the Superboss Reize has the unique theme "Promised Heart -Summer". |

Duty That Transcends Death: The undead guards of Meos's palace and Laotan-Piki-Lanku keep serving even after they died. Most of the ones who talk without attacking the party on sight don't seem to even know they died, they also seem to have forgotten part of their past lives, as they mistake the party for people they knew. Meos's guards even believe it's still Irys's birthday, the day the gromiz attacked the palace and killed them 15 cycles before. |

| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_e35bc0f7 |
comment |
Tragic Monster: Meos was cursed after being given a Sadistic Choice by Zagrom and eating a sacred arachna to save his family. The resulting dark shi gradually turned him into a half-man, half-arachna monster and caused him to lose most of his humanity. After the heroes defeat him without killing him, he's given a Mercy Kill by his own daughter Irys. After losing her son, Sabba became corrupted by the dark shi, poisoned her husband and started abducting children to raise them as her own. After the party defeats her, she sees Chado and hallucinates that she's finally seeing her son again. This causes Chado to also hallucinate that he's seeing his mother again, so he hugs her and she peacefully returns to the shi. |

As Long as It Sounds Foreign |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_e3c20140 |
comment |
As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Though a Maherian language was created for the game, the spoken lines don't always match the translations due to rewrites. The Maherian voice clips that randomly play during dialogues also tend to be irrelevant to what the characters are actually saying. Worse, many instances of written Maherian are actually random, irrelevant Maherian words, or misspelt, or just French written with the Maherian font, or even complete gibberish. They even forgot to use the alphabet on the map in the library of Meos's palace and just wrote the names on it with the Latin alphabet, King Ranahel's seal in Crossroad is also the Latin letter R. For Vrynn's Interface Screw spell, they used Germanic runes, of all things, rather than Maherian letters. Even the name of the Final Boss, Wio Irys/Kaorys is wrong: wio means "dark" in Maherian, but adjectives are supposed to follow names and nouns in this language, not to precede them, an error the names of the tier 2 and 3 techniques also contain. The words invented by the game's writers are quite inconsistent and don't look like they're from the same language at all even though they're supposed to be. In particular, the word Shiness is the only one whose I is pronounced the English way rather than the French way, because Samir Rebib made it up by blending the English words "shine" and "darkness". |

Bounty Hunter: Some sidequests involve becoming one, in each, the party is tasked with eliminating an Optional Boss. One of them can be a subversion depending on your choices: Eymdal, an Adoryan officer, will task the party will eliminating Laukhy, another Adoryan soldier he accuses of war crimes. When the party finds Laukhy, he explains that Eymdal is lying, that he's actually a defector and Eymdal, his former commanding officer, wants him dead lest he be the one the Adoryan army punishes for his failure to stop a traitor. The party can then choose between believing him or not, if they choose to believe him, they have to kill Eymdal instead to complete the quest, and therefore refuse the bounty. |

Composite Character: The Shiness Chado meets was known as Vanny in The Shiness and was the Shiness of air, whereas the Shiness of earth was Terry. In the game, both characters were combined into Terra, who is the Shiness Chado can see as well as the Shiness of earth. As Chado's grandfather Yandor, who invented Chado's ship in the original continuity, was Adapted Out, Poky's game counterpart inherits his intelligence and is the one who invents the ship instead. |

The Hero: Chado. He might only be eleven, but he's a Determinator willing to go on an adventure around the whole planet, fight all kinds of monsters and join La Résistance to find the Lands of Life. |

Expy: Chado resembles Naruto to some extent: he's a Hot-Blooded Kid Hero and a Pint-Sized Powerhouse, wears a bandana and has been ostracized by the villagers of Kimpao, he was even an air shi user in The Shiness. He also resembles Anakin Skywalker somewhat, as they're both Chosen Ones, they both already know how to fly spaceships at their age, and they both lost their mothers and became more aggressive and interested in finding ways to cheat death as a result. Poky is similar to Tails: he's Chado's Cowardly Sidekick, a Child Prodigy and a Gadgeteer Genius. Ayron is blatantly based on Sephiroth: he has long, silver hair, wears a black cape and Shoulders of Doom, and is a Magic Knight who fights with a sword and his mastery of metal shi and dark shi. He's also similar to Darth Vader: he's a Tin Tyrant (and possibly a Cyborg, as part of his face appears to be artificial), a Bad Boss, a master of The Dark Side of the shi, and The Poorly Chosen One, he also changed his name when he turned evil, and had the same mentor as Chado. Rosalya is similar to Garnet: they're both Rebellious Princesses whose parents are among the games' antagonists, they both manage to escape their kingdoms, and they're both hunted by the antagonists for their unusual powers. She also resembles Blaze somewhat in that they're both princesses with power over fire who regard it as a curse and had to grow up friendless because of it. Overall, the main characters are quite similar to the original Star Wars trilogy's: Chado is Luke Skywalker, Poky is both C-3PO and R2-D2, Kayenne is both Chewbacca and Obi-Wan Kenobi, Askel is Han Solo, Rosalya is Leia, Terra is Yoda and Ayron is Darth Vader. |

The four interlaced circles symbolizing the shi appear in many places relevant to the plot, like in the game's opening or Kayenne's Info Dumps in Crossroad, or the gameplay, like the diagram showing a character's elemental affinities in the menu, they're also frequently used as a background decoration in menus and promotional artwork and serve as the game's spinning loading icon. |

The Mole: Either Irys or Kaorys turns out to work for Ayron, fights the party alone as the Pre-Final Boss and merges with Ayron to become the Final Boss. Counselor Iselys also works for the Adoryans, the party can see through her and deal with her in a sidequest, otherwise she's fought near the end. In the latter case, she kills the other Mantarian counselors before the party can reach her. |

Almost Out of Oxygen: In Crossroad, Chado and Poky weren't originally planning to land on Gendys but were forced to head to it because their ship was running out of oxygen. This results in the ship being struck by lightning as soon as it enters the meteora's atmosphere and crashing, like in the game's opening. |

In the game, Chado and Poky leave Kimpao without their parents' permission on a ship Poky invented. In The Shiness, they instead volunteer for testing a new ship invented by Chado's grandfather Yandor. Furthermore, Chado wasn't looking for the Lands of Life in the original manga since his mother was alive in it, he and Poky just wanted to go home after they mistakenly landed on the wrong meteora and were effectively Pinball Protagonists who had no significant involvement in anything that happened after their arrival since they were arrested almost immediately afterwards and accused of abducting Rosa, then spent the rest of the story in jail or as Condemned Contestants. |

The first time, they're just here to poach pouis and fight the party when they interfere, the second, Bagogue tries to force the party to pay him or work for him to access the mountain, in both cases, they're just crooks unaffiliated with the antagonists. |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_ee7ed46e |
comment |
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Even though Poky is said to be a Gadgeteer Genius who invented the airship he and Chado left Kimpao with, the game never shows him building anything. When Xaham needs to improve his own airship to hijack the Three Arrows, he just tasks the party with finding parts and Poky doesn't help him add them to the ship. Nashoba is introduced as a former warlord and a powerful ally of the Mantarians and Mingane is introduced as his pupil, but they're never seen fighting, not even during Ayron's assault on Mantara. The only time in the game you will see Chado, "Kimpao's greatest pilot", piloting a ship is in the opening, when the Asanao-3 crashes. Any other ship the party boards during the whole game is piloted by Xaham. |

Plot-Irrelevant Villain: Ayron has no involvement in the plot for most of the game and doesn't interact with the heroes until his squadron attacks Mantara, moments before the final dungeon. Sabba only exists to provide a threat to the party when they climb the Shiyawo and a touching moment for Chado when he has a vision of his mother after her defeat. Unlike Ayron, she's completely irrelevant to either Chado's or Rosalya's quests, and unlike Zagrom and Altonataros, she wasn't involved in the events that started the war between Gendys and Adorya. |

Wake-Up Call Boss: Zagrom is arguably the game's first hard boss due to his unique dark shi abilities, such as spamming homing projectiles. He's also the only boss who can use the hyper (with the exception of Ayron during the first fight against him, but this is a Hopeless Boss Fight, he doesn't use it during the actual, winnable fight against him), which is unblockable and undodgeable, deals massive damage and can be triggered simply by using too many physical attacks on him, so you can't rely on them alone. |

Video Game Cruelty Potential |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 |
comment |
If you choose to partake in Askel's humiliation on Mantara, he leaves after the party finds the snow bloodor and doesn't fly back to Mantara with Xaham and the rest of the team. Immediately afterwards, he's on Mantara when Ayron attacks whether he stayed with the party or not, even though Mantara's location is only known to a few trusted pilots like Xaham and the Mantarians turn the city invisible when the party warns them that Ayron's squadron is approaching. The squadron itself can't have picked him up since it flies past the mountain before he leaves the party. |

Never Trust a Title |
| | Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom (Video Game) / int_fb7bc4a8 |
comment |
Never Trust a Title: No place in the game is called the "Lightning Kingdom". The closest thing it has is the Sparkling Kingdom, which was the name of the former alliance between Gendys and Adorya in the gamenote In Crossroad, it's Adorya's nickname instead. Despite its title, Crossroad does not show Chado and Rosalya's stories intersect, this only happens in the gamenote This would have happened if the unreleased 7th chapter had been published, however.. |

Even though Poky is said to be a Gadgeteer Genius who invented the airship he and Chado left Kimpao with, the game never shows him building anything. When Xaham needs to improve his own airship to hijack the Three Arrows, he just tasks the party with finding parts and Poky doesn't help him add them to the ship. |

Cutscene Power to the Max: Askel uses his bloodor to paralyze Rosalya in a cutscene and several Mantarian soldiers offscreen. He can't do this after joining the party. After the final battle, Terra boosts Chado's powers, allowing him to create a giant menhir and throw it at Ayron, knocking him over Mantara's edge. This is the only time they do this, and why they suddenly can is never explained. |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Even though Rosalya has suffered fits of Power Incontinence causing powerful shi explosions ever since she was a child, her body is completely unscathed, the game justifies this, as characters with a very high affinity to an element become immune to it. What isn't justified, however, is how her clothes aren't damaged by the explosions, though it's possible that King Ranahel simply had fireproof clothes made for her lest she keep destroying her outfits. |

The Corrupter: Lord Altonataros turned evil after a serkan corrupted him. He in turn tried to corrupt Irys by sending her a Spell Book for her birthday. The book might have in turn corrupted Zagrom, though whether he was already evil before finding it is unclear, as the book's influence seems to be too weak to corrupt good people like Zlog. |

Unnaturally Looping Location: Laotan-Piki-Lanku is protected by a time shi trap causing this trope when the party first tries entering the city. It can only be deactivated with the three medallions owned by Lord Altonataros's three sons Klaig, Rewald and Helran. The party therefore needs to track them down to enter the palace. |

Legacy of the Chosen: If a Shiness's summoned one dies, she will always find another (or maybe it's a case of Someone Has to Do It, as whether the Shiness choose their summoned ones is unclear). Chado is actually Terra's eighty-third summoned one, and Adjin/Ayron was one of them before turning evil. |

Cut Short: The game was meant to be much longer and the first part of an Episodic Game, but due to budget constraints, it ends with a Sequel Hook and unresolved plot points. Any hope for a sequel was killed after Enigami went into liquidation due to poor sales. Worse, this was the second time the story was unfinished, as Samir Rebib had dropped The Shiness after two tomes without a conclusion. |
