Tales of Phantasia is the first mainline entry in the Tales Series. The game was released on December 15th, 1995 in Japan on the Super Famicom.The story begins when best friends Cress Albane and Chester Burklight return from a hunting trip to find that their entire village has been destroyed, and their families slaughtered. Swearing of revenge is imminent.It turns out that the culprit needed Cress' heirloom pendant to unlock the seal on Dhaos, the legendary Demon King. Picking up a White Magician Girl (Mint Adnade) and a guide (Trinicus D. Morrison) along the way, Cress and company arrive just in time to see the seal broken and Dhaos freed. Unfortunately, Dhaos is only vulnerable to magic, and the World Tree that powers magic has been dead for a century.With the last of his powers, Trinicus flings Cress and Mint a century into the past, where they land in the middle of a world war between the human country of Midgards and the evil forces of Dhaos. As Cress and Mint are unable to use magic, they recruit a half-elf witch called Arche and a human summoner called Claus F. Lester. Together, they must figure out a way to Save the World and defeat Dhaos once and for all.Some stuff that became common themes throughout the series started here. Arche kicks off the Tales Series' fine tradition of exploring racism through elves. Claus redefines long-distance relationships with the help of the Spirit of Creation. Dhaos sets the standard for Tales Series villains as Well Intentioned Extremists. Also, there's a minor time paradox in there.Phantasia played many RPG tropes straight, but on the technical side, it was nothing short of a marvel. Programmer Hatsuya Hiroshiba found a way to fit full voice acting for all the moves and spells and a full opening song into the plucky Super Famicom cartridge, with room to spare for brilliant arrangements of Motoi Sakuraba's gorgeous themes. The early version of the Linear Motion Battle System was a bit rough around the edges, but when the game was remade for the PlayStation in 1998, the control scheme was redone to fit Tales of Destiny's revamped "command" style, and all sorts of little extras were dropped in, from an extra character to little graphical coolnesses.Phantasia also invented many of the series' set pieces. A huge number of the moves that later Tales Series swordsmen would use come straight from Cress' playbook. Phantasia also introduced the basic spell list, most notably the high-level magic "Indignation" (which comes with its own incantation too).There was a remake for the GBA, which was the first version to get an official English release. While there are a few incredibly awful spots in the localization, such as the "Kangaroo War" for Ragnarok (apparently the result of a spell-check mishap) and the poor quality of the voice casting and acting, most of the fanbase's issues with it are a result of Nintendo not taking... liberties... with the script that the best-known Fan Translation did. (If they had done so, the game almost certainly wouldn't have got by with anything less than an "M" rating.)There are English patches for the SFC and PSX versions available online. There are also two versions for PSP, one being the "Full Voice Edition" and the other being paired with an Updated Re-release of the Game Boy Color sequel, Narikiri Dungeon. Recommended in general, but especially for people who liked Symphonia, just to play "spot the continuities." Unfortunately, neither version was released outside of Japan.In 2014, however, an iOS port (based off the "Full Voice Edition") was released in September 2013 in Japan, which was followed by an English translation in January 2014. However, Namco Bandai eventually shut down the game servers and quietly pulled it from the App Store later in 2014, leaving the game completely unplayable. Namco Bandai cited poor response as its official reason (expected given what they turned the game into).Due to Executive Meddling (most likely brought on by a desire to make the game better compete with the then newly-released Chrono Trigger,) the original development team schismed and mostly broke away from Namco after the game released, going on to reform into tri-Ace and create the Star Ocean series.A four-episode OVA based on the game was created in 2004, and licensed and dubbed by Geneon three years later.Due to the fact that about a decade passed before a canon English translation was released, there's a bit of conflict about what some of the characters' names are. In order to reduce confusion, please use the official localized English versions of the character names, and not the DeJap versions.

Early Game Hell
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_1527d90d
comment
Early Game Hell: Phantasia can be super difficult in the early stages that, oddly enough, will probably last all the way through the first half of the game due to the fact that you will personally play Cress while all the AI characters are mages that Cress has to protect. New players will find it VERY difficult trying to use Cress to push enemies away from the mages in the back row and/or protect them from both direct and magical assaults. Also, since this game is played on a 2D plane in battles, it's easy to get sandwiched between hard-hitting enemies and stun-locked. After the entire team gains a handful of levels, the HP and MP to stand up to bigger fights, and Cress has plenty of higher powered Artes under his belt to pummel enemies with, the game starts to get a bit easier.

comment
The Cameo: The PSX port onward added a cameo fight with Lilith Aileron, Stahn Aileron's sister. Beating her earns you the "Swordian Dymlos" weapon as well as Stahn's "Final Fury/Satsugeki Bokouken" arte for Cress. One of the Narikiri skins in Narikiri Dungeon X transforms the player into Asbel Lhant, complete with his move pool. Another turns the player into Asuka Kazama complete with a tenstring as her Mystic Arte.

comment
Poor Communication Kills: Come ON, Dhaos, an FYI would have been kinda useful! In either timeline! They could have avoided all that, if only Dhaos had opened his damn mouth. It wouldn't have hurt for the heroes to spend more than five seconds considering what Origin had to say either. Dhaos did attempt to communicate. It went ignored because Reisen blocked them all.

comment
Spice Up the Subtitles: In the DeJap fan translation, the dialogue when Arche tries to convince a boat captain to take the party to Alvanista, the conversation between Cress and Claus on the boat, and the dialogue when Arche falls into a drunken sleep and dreams of Cress are either suggestive or just downright raunchy and would never pass the censors.

Considering the way Claus acts sometimes this would be fairly frightening if it weren't for the way NPC's keep pointing out how young the rest of the party is. In a role reversal, Arche plays Only Sane Man for a brief period in Midgard.

Limit Break
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9
comment
Limit Break: In the PlayStation version, Cress, and only Cress, received the first Mystic Arte in the series, the "Meikū Zanshouken/Dark Blade". Due to Early-Installment Weirdness, it worked more like a Desperation Attack, as Cress needed to be at full health and THEN lose enough of it to be on critical levels to use it. He also needs a special title in the GBA. He can also obtain "Satsugeki Bukouken/Fatal Fury" by beating Lilith, since it counted as a normal Arte at the time.

Awesome, but Impractical
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: The Sword Rain technique causes Cress to attack with a flurry of stabs that deal massive amounts of damage. Unfortunately, each hit also pushes the enemy backwards while Cress stays still, so unless you have your opponent pinned against something (or your opponent is the type to keep running into your sword,) you'll only get in about three hits at best; not worth the amount of TP the move consumes. Unless you first corner the enemy to the edge of the battlefield, which then most of your attacks will not be able to push the enemy further back, in later games, Cress gets pushed back by himself though.

Unicorns Prefer Virgins: The Unicorn only lets virgin women near it. In the first game, the flirtatious Arche thus has to leave during the portion of the quest where you seek it out. In Tales of Symphonia, Raine notes she shouldn't bother trying to go near it, and Kratos doubts that Sheena can. She can.

Perfect Play A.I.
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_3d276f04
comment
Perfect Play A.I.: The Odin, Galf Beast, and Lilith fights all work this way. Ordinarily bosses need to be balanced for fighting your whole team at once, meaning they need to occasionally channel for large attacks so they can hit the team members hiding behind and healing Cress. Not so for these three, which are all one-on-one fights. Because of this, they're instead designed specifically to relentlessly assault Cress with quick attacks to interrupt his, all of which are very likely to knock him down or back. They'll continue doing this until he's cornered, and then keep spamming attacks until he's dead. Victory in these fights purely comes down to not losing momentum against them at any point, as doing so makes it very difficult to get back into it. Abusing attacks that are hard for the AI to halt is key in this.

Humans Are Bastards
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_3d4d3dc9
comment
Humans Are Bastards: In the game, the blame for the whole shitstorm is distributed among several parties (Though Dhaos hiring a PR department could have prevented a lot of it), making Dhaos well-intentioned but decidedly threatening and genocidal, while humans are understandably defensive, though arrogant and foolish. The anime however, goes to great lengths to shift Dhaos actions so that he tried his best to warn humans of the consequences of their actions, while the latter ignored absolutely everything he said for no particular reason. The clearest example is the Mana Cannon, a highly destructive, very environment-unfriendly weapon. In the game, it was built to have a chance against Dhaos forces, which were attacking precisely because humans were developing that kind of technology. Part of the vicious cycle is that if Dhaos were not attacking, the weapon would not have had a reason to be ever built or used. In the anime, humans built the weapon even before Dhaos showed up for... no bloody reason. The Mana Cannon existing before Dhaos in the OVA might seem like a retcon, but it's actually (very, very) vaguely implied in the game: the elves stopped communicating with humans ten years or so before the Past section, due to "humanity's foolish actions," which we can assume to be magitek research. Of course, the elves clearly never bothered to tell humans what the problem actually was, so yeah. Poor communication all around.

Smash Mook: Golems found throughout the game. Feature very high hit points, and typically use attacks that, sure enough, smash your party, often resulting in being flung backwards and/or stunned. Frequently found serving as meat shields for mage enemies and have a really nasty habit of surrounding your party, which can be problematic.

 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_43bda213
comment
A Taste of Power: A rather minor example, but if you enter Cress's father's dojo after his village has been raided, you can find the sword of the general who led the raid. It is a fair amount stronger than what you have at the time. However, you will lose it when Cress gets imprisoned in the next town over. But if you do the unconventional option of leave the sword behind, go to the next town where Cress gets imprisoned, and THEN go back to his hometown after escaping to get it, he can carry it with him the rest of the game, though it will become outdated after the initial confrontation with Dhaos that leads to Cress and Mint being separated from everyone else.

comment
Scenery Porn: It would be remiss to discuss Tales of Phantasia without mentioning that it ranks among the most graphically beautiful games released for Super Famicom, and probably the most graphically advanced RPG of the 16-bit era. Effects now taken for granted like reflective water and mirrors, rippling water effects, realistic weather, etc were revolutionary at the time this game was released. Also, contained far more voice acting than most 16-bit console RPGs, and the music is considered among the best of any SFC game. This level of detail required a 48MB cartridge; compare with Chrono Trigger at 32MB, and Final Fantasy VI and EarthBound (1994) at 24MB. Star Ocean is the only other game for Super Famicom/SNES to require such a large cart. Incidentally, Star Ocean was made by the Tales of Phantasia team after they left Namco in disgust.

Opening the Sandbox: Once you get the ability to fly in the future the world becomes an open sandbox with access to areas limited primarily by your ability to handle the challenge.

 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_4cefd8a6
comment
Long Song, Short Scene: The present's overworld music isn't used much due to how little of the game is spent in that time period.note Despite this, this very song is the world map music throughout Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. Averted with the town music in that time period, however, which is reused in the future.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: No cooking, no Dark Wings, no skits, and in the SNES version, no Mystic Artes/Hi-Ougi. The battle system of Phantasia also comes as a little odd for modern Tales players — Chibisized sprites, a slightly slower-paced battle system, a lack of primary attack combos, and a few other things. The art style is musty, muted and more realistic than the pastel style that would later define the series' aesthetic. Later console versions implemented cooking and skits among other things, bringing Phantasia more in line with the rest of the series. From a story perspective, Phantasia also lacks several of the character tropes almost always found in later games, like a Guest-Star Party Member or a Lovable Traitor. There is also no real Chosen One until Tales of Eternia (and even in that game that aspect is minimal), while in later games the party often revolves around the chosen character. The popularity of many of those character tropes started with Tales of Destiny. Incidentally, most of those tropes were inserted in the GBA and PSX's Updated Re-release.

Disc-One Nuke
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d
comment
Disc-One Nuke: Several candidates depending on version. In the SFC release, Maxwell qualified but was toned down in the PSX release. Indignation qualifies in either version. Gnome can be obtained really early as well, though he's incredibly hard to beat at that level. By Sequence Breaking (or using the behind-the-counter trick in Olive Village) and saving up a load of cash you can acquire advanced weapons for Cress long before you'd normally get them (simultaneously offset and built-in in PSX release since Gungnir is a great weapon gained by story progression, but in SFC version Gungnir is underwhelming). An early example is the Knight Saber found in Toltus after the attacknote Normally after passing through, you lose all your equipment up to that point permanently and make due with a simple Long Sword. Don't pick up the Saber on your initial investigation and come back later to get one of the better swords until you go to the past..

Gameplay and Story Segregation
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_6320eced
comment
Gameplay and Story Segregation: One of the major goals in the early part of the game is to find people who have magical powers in order to defeat Dhaos, because humans cannot use magic. Nope. Not even a little bit. Shoot plasma bolts and lightning? Heal people with light? Turn into a giant flaming bird? Teleport?! No problem! But they can't use magic. Speaking of defeating Dhaos, in the story he's supposed to be completely immune to anything but magic, which is why the party is gathering magic users. However in most versions other than the original;, anytime the party fights him any of the party can whack him with nonelemental weapons and purely physical arts as much as they want and it'll damage him, though he might be resistant against physical attacks during some fights, he's never completely immune. (This one veers on Acceptable Breaks from Reality, though.) It also has to be noted that Mint is a real sore thumb when it comes to the "magic" thing. Apparently her healing arts don't count as "magic", but then the game never, ever explains what the hell the source of her power is. It's sort of vaguely "divine", apparently... and it doesn't count as "magic" for the purposes of Yggdrasil being dead and defeating Dhaos. The OVA tries to patch this hole with a flashback of Meryl explaining that Healers do draw on the mana produced by Yggdrasil, but it is less energy intensive and can work off of the greatly reduced output of its dead husk. There's still the question of why healing arts do not require elven blood, which Mint is explicitly stated to not have.

Badass Normal: Chester; Cress has the legendary Eternal Sword, Arche can cast devastating spells, Klaus can summon elemental spirits to fight, and Suzu is the next successor to the Fujibayashi ninja clan. Chester is just a guy who learned to use a bow to hunt. Even more obvious in the SNES game, where he doesn't learn any skills, and yet has the second highest damage output of the party, just behind Cress.

comment
Lightning Can Do Anything: Volt will power up the aviation devices just by doing so unexplained. Afterwards, these devices never seem to require recharging. Assuming the sparks from the sorcerer's ring are electrical, there's no real reason why they should light torches so easily. (Ever tried to light a fire with just sparks?) There's also the instance in Fenrir's cave where just one burst of these sparks defrosts a lever in an ice wall. (Ever tried to defrost a lever in an ice wall with just sparks?) Not only that, the lever becomes so hot instantly that it burns Cless' fingers.

Permanently Missable Content
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_6602cad
comment
Permanently Missable Content: The game does its best to avoid this, as after you travel to the future you can still revisit many locations and obtain most of the spells and skills that you missed in the past. But some things (mostly titles and recipes) can still be missed: There are two as early as the first few minutes of the game, with Ami's Stuffed Cress doll and Chester's Kind Brother title, which must be obtained before Toltus' destruction. Elwin and Nancy's sidequest (which give the Bridal Gloves and the Cupid title for Mint) can end early with no rewards if the player doesn't do some of its steps at the right time. For Claus' Monster Hunter title, the player needs to catalog the full data of every enemy in the game. This is done by scanning them with a Magic Lens and getting all their item drops (and items to steal with Suzu for some enemies in the future). Some enemies are exclusive to the present or the past or even some very specific fights, so they must be fully registered before those parts of the game are over. There's a similar deal going on with his Item Collector title (obtain every item in the game at least once), as a few items can only be gotten in specific timeframes. Some shops in the present and in the past also have unique items on them, but for items obtained through other means, the aforementioned Stuffed Cress and Bridal Gloves count as examples. These collections can carry over to a second playthrough, but they can be completed on the first one. Likewise, some recipes - and by extension the characters's titles for mastering them all (in versions that have them) - can be missed if the player doesn't have them by the time they travel to the next time period. But the worst offender is French Toast's recipe, because the chef that teaches it is in Hamel, and that city is destroyed not too long after you first visit it. Cress' Ishitori Master and Mach Lad titles can only be obtained in the past version of Alvanista, because in the future, the Ishitori Master's descendant plays a different minigame and the harder race in the future is only played as Chester (who gets his own title for it). A few of Arche's spells can be missed, and there's a title for teaching every possible spell to Arche. Some examples are the one in the past version of Dhaos' Castle (Rock Mountain or Distortion depending on the game's version) because that castle doesn't exist anymore in the future and Judgment/God's Breath in Thor at the end of the past section of the game. Thor can be revisited in the future, but for some reason the spell won't be there if the player doesn't get it in the past.

comment
Random Drop: One of the quests in the game requires you to find five Basilisk's Scales, which drop from, as you would imagine, Basilisks. Unfortunately they're a somewhat uncommon encounter and the drop isn't guaranteed. Later in the game a pair of dungeons requires a special charm which randomly drops from enemies, though they are much more common. You can also get each charm by using a Rune Bottle on the version found in the dungeon that requires it - the Rune Bottle turns each charm into the other, and you need the fire charm to survive the ice dungeon (though not in the GBA version) and the water charm to survive the lava dungeon.

Point of No Return: None for the endgame, you can save anywhere in the final dungeon and still leave, but once you reach the last room of the Underground Crypt, you're sealed off from the Present and the same applies for the Past when you set sail for Thor's nautical location.

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Done with spectacular pointlessness on the part of Dhaos, who chose to wipe out his mind-controlled servant Mars the moment he was unsealed, despite the fact that Mars had pulled off Dhaos' release almost perfectly. To be fair, Mars acted as though Dhaos was his to control, and even arrogantly demanded that he grant him his power. Dhaos' reaction was predictable to say the least. Even more understandable, given that Dhaos had kinda basically been buried alive for a full decade, and didn't even have the benefit of being in a sort of stasis. Kind of a miracle the man had enough scraps of sanity to form coherent sentences after that.

Artificial Stupidity
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_940a5958
comment
Artificial Stupidity. Averted for the most part. The ranged characters like Mint, Arche, Chester, and Claus will stay clustered in the left part of the screen if you tell them to. Your spellcasters will, for the most part, figure out which spells don't work on enemies through trial-and-error until they settle on a spell that does. However, there's still problems like Mint repeatedly trying to use Hammer skills on an enemy that's clearly immune to them (like bosses,) sometimes doing that instead of healing or buffing, and sometimes your other spellcasters will still spam spells that clearly aren't working or aren't as effective as another spell in their arsenal (even if they casted that one earlier in the fight.) Fortunately, you can turn off spells to keep them from using them. Mint's other problem is also the fact that the AI can't predict what'll happen, so she will start casting spells with a cast time (like Pow Pow Hammer, Acid Rain, or Sharpness) when Cress or Suzu are taking damage and not cancel it to swap with a heal.

Acrophobic Bird: Averted. One puzzle requires leaving Arche behind to stand on a switch so that she can fly out of a hole later, and in a scene after defeating Volt she's asked to go fetch treasure chests that are normally inaccessible. There's some Gameplay and Story Segregation to this, though - she'll only use her flying abilities when the plot demands it.

comment
Time Travel: Thanks to dividing timelines, it turns out that the final boss of the game is not the guy you've been trying to get revenge on all game long. Basically: the one you hate was defeated in the prologue and sealed away, and is killed about halfway through the game; the final boss is completely different, having split off from the original when your party replaced their own ancestors in reenacting the same prologue battle. Dammit, time travel!

Reisen, the head of the magitek research, whose actions basically kickstarted the entire plot of the game by killing the Yggdrasil and antagonizing Dhaos to the point of making a peaceful solution impossible, never gets so much as fired from his job or even called out on everything he's responsible for. His absence during the future timeline despite being a half-elf indicates that he was killed in Dhaos's attack on Midgards, but this is unconfirmed.

Half-Human Hybrid
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_a2cbad1
comment
Half-Human Hybrid: This game introduced the series' tradition of using half-elves and other hybrids to explore themes of prejudice and racism. Half-elves possess the same life-span and magical abilities as their elven parent, but are psychologically much more similar to their human parent, though it's ambiguous whether that is biological or the result of the elves ostracizing the half-elves and forcing them to live among humans.

One-Hit Kill: The urchin enemy in the lower levels of the Moria Gallery is a tiny enemy that inches towards your party. It also can't be hurt and instantly kills on contact. Needless to say, if you ever encounter one, run like hell in the other direction. Hell Lords in the bottom floor of the Sylph Mountain have the ability to cast Summon Lich, which at that point in the game, is a guaranteed Total Party Kill without some severe level grinding.

And I Must Scream: Remember the sarcophagus Dhaos was sealed in at the beginning of the game? The one he was trapped for ten years in? Remember how he was able to mind-control Mars to an unspecified extent? Yeah, that confirms he was conscious the entire time he was sealed in there, only kept from starving to death because of his magic. Can't exactly blame him for losing the last few shreds of sanity he had after that.

Posthumous Villain Victory
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_a98aacd1
comment
Posthumous Villain Victory: After the heroes defeat him for the final time, Dhaos uses his dying breaths to reveal that he's a member of a Dying Race, whose people pinned all their hopes of survival on him coming to the world of Aselia and harvesting enough mana to create a mana seed... and his wars with the human race have been an effort to suppress and destroy their Magitek, which threatens mana's existence. The heroes conclude that he was a Well-Intentioned Extremist who had noble goals but horrible methods of achieving them, and mourn for his doomed people. As the ending plays, Martel, guardian spirit of the Yggdrasil, is shown transforming Dhaos' corpse into a mana seed and sending it to his homeworld.

Alas, Poor Villain: It does this with the Big Bad. It's mentioned that Dhaos actually was trying to save his own people who needed mana to live whereas your races didn't, and that if you look at it from their perspective, you're the villains. Whenever Arche would bring up this possibility, Cress would just begin shouting at her.

Acceptable Breaks from Reality
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_b6e1d40b
comment
Speaking of defeating Dhaos, in the story he's supposed to be completely immune to anything but magic, which is why the party is gathering magic users. However in most versions other than the original;, anytime the party fights him any of the party can whack him with nonelemental weapons and purely physical arts as much as they want and it'll damage him, though he might be resistant against physical attacks during some fights, he's never completely immune. (This one veers on Acceptable Breaks from Reality, though.)

Harder Than Hard: Besides Hard mode (unlocked in SFC release by pressing XYBA at the same time on title screen when starting a game, made a selectable option in PSX release), once you finish the PSX version you may unlock Mania difficulty. All enemies have 3x HP (compare with 2x HP in Hard mode), do 50% more damage (compare to 25% in Hard) and worst of all, you do not regen a chunk of TP after every battle. Short of powerleveling through it, Mania is incredibly difficult.

comment
Broken Bridge: Due to the time travel mechanics, this is handled quite strangely. In the present time period, a literal broken bridge blocks passage from Euclid to Venezia until the plot actually requires the party to go there... 100 years in the past. Incidentally, due to how little time is spent in the present to begin with, this means the latter is completely inaccessible in the time period in which the party first visits Euclid. However, considering how future Venezia isn't much different from past Venezia, this probably doesn't mean much.

Shout-Out: The Moria/Morlia Gallery, an ancient cave where the dwarves used to live. There are several pieces of equipment taken straight from The Tower of Druaga. Collecting them all earns Cress the Gilgamesh title. One of Claus' book weapons is the Necronomicon, and another sounds like The King in Yellow. The collectible statues are all modelled after other Namco characters: the Statue of Bravery and Love are Gilgamesh and Ki repectively from The Tower of Druaga, The Statue of Friendship is the eponymous character from Klonoa and the Statue of Justice is the main character from The Legend of Valkyrie who also appears as Odin's aide.

Killed Off for Real: The Dhaos that was defeated by Edward and released by Mars. The party just assumes he escaped through time again when his alternate-timeline self in the Future starts causing havoc, but the player clearly see what they didn't in their haste to escape: he quite clearly remains prone on the ground as the Mausoleum collapses, and his body is crushed under falling debris. Amusingly, the party never does learn this either.

Competence Zone: Total aversion of the "Too Old" type. Claus is pushing thirty while the rest of the group average age 16, Suzu pushing it down, being age 11, but he's the brains of the operation from the moment he joined and does most of the talking to other people.

Sword and Sorcerer: It's not until you've gotten through half the game that you're allowed any party combination but this. You start off with Fighter And Healer, after which the Glass Cannons show up.

comment
Nature Versus Nurture: A major point in Narikiri Dungeon, as Norn wished to see if Dios and Meltia were inherently evil beings, or good people whose morality had been heavily skewed by circumstance.

 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_d2e9aba4
comment
Game of Nim: There is an NPC in Alvanista Castle who will challenge you to a "subtraction game" in which players take turns removing 1, 2, or 3 rocks from a pile. Whoever takes the last one is losing. It's made extra difficult because the player has only 3 seconds to choose a number. Should you win though, the NPC will give you a combat accessory, though to get that in the PS1 version you will also have to play a second round with a much bigger pile of rocks. You will also get a title for Cress for winning the harder variant.

Mint gets off a very subtle What the Hell, Hero? on him in the OVA. In the aftermath of the destruction caused by his Wave-Motion Gun, a small child is digging through debris trying to find her parents.

Fantastic Science: Sorcery is treated this way (even more so in the prequels). Your party visits three separate "magical research labs" over the course of the story, and Claus considers himself a scientist.

comment
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Claus looks weird but no one seems to notice, even though he does all the talking for your party. No one seems to think it's at all strange that Arche follows you around on a floating broom either. The first example is lessened in the SNES version, where, as noted, Claus looks more like the fussy intellectual he is in-plot as opposed to a suspicious mystic.

Art Evolution
 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_e43c66bd
comment
Art Evolution: A strange version in that it happened between versions; the in-game character sprites of the SNES version were based on an earlier artists work on the game, but the portraits and general artwork all used the newer character art. This resulted in characters on the SNES version looking very different in-game compared to their portraits (Claus in particular is almost completely different). Later versions changed the sprites to be based on the newer artwork.

Penultimate Weapon: Eternal Sword, a generally superior weapon and the stuff of legends but Excalibur is a good deal better and in PSX version so is Gungnir (and arguably several others such as Bahamut's Tear and Luck Sword).

 Tales of Phantasia (Video Game) / int_f0fe7e80
comment
But Now I Must Go: At the end of the game, Claus and Arche have to return to the past. Arche is a bit of a subversion, since, being a half-elf, she'll still be around in 100 years (though, at best, her relationship with Chester will in her point of view be taking a 100 year break) and they can just visit her whenever, but Claus... well, must return to his love, with the little dirty magazine (and tons of other books) he got from the quest. But there's no real chance he'll survive to see Cress & Mint again.
