Good morning. Do you request to read TV Tropes' Zone of the Enders article?Zone of the Enders is a Humongous Mecha series published by Konami and produced by Hideo Kojima, the creator of the Metal Gear franchise as well as the director of Snatcher and its Spiritual Successor, Policenauts.The original, eponymous game (more distinctly titled Zone of the Enders: Z.O.E. in Japan) was a high-speed mecha combat game released in 2001 for the PlayStation 2. Leo Stenbuck, a kid living in a space colony orbiting Jupiter, falls into the cockpit of a Super Prototype Orbital Frame named Jehuty when the colony is attacked by the Martian rebel group, BAHRAM. Leo quickly discovers that BAHRAM has come to the colony for Jehuty, but realizes that their reign of terror won't end if he hands over the machine. With the help of Jehuty's AI program, ADA, Leo sets out to break through BAHRAM's forces, save his fellow colonists, and deliver Jehuty to the UNSF on the other side of the colony. Zone of the Enders for PlayStation 2 had brisk initial sales, mostly attributed to the fact that the game was packaged with a demo for Metal Gear Solid 2. For many players, the first Zone of the Enders was "the free game" that came with their demo. Nonetheless, the game sold well enough to gain a cult following of its own.This game was accompanied by a sort of franchise-building initiative with several tie-in products. Zone of the Enders: 2167 IDOLO, a prequel anime OVA starring Viola Gyune (The Dragon of the game) and Radium Lavans, was released just before the game's launch. The protagonists join a resistance movement against the Earth using Idolo, the first Orbital Frame. This was followed by a full TV series, Zone of the Enders: Dolores, i, where a space trucker named James Links receives the Orbital Frame Dolores from his estranged wife Rachel, one of Idolo's designers and a casualty of the OVA's events. The frame curiously thinks of the trucker as her uncle, spurring James to seek out and reconcile with his children. Both the OVA and TV series received DVD releases, and later in 2012 (in Japan), re-released on Blu-ray.In 2002, a Turn-Based Strategy Spin-Off game, Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars (Z.O.E. 2173 Testament in Japan), was released for the Game Boy Advance. A boy named Cage Midwell finds a strangely powerful LEV hidden on a cruise liner. He climbs aboard along with a mysterious girl just before the ship is destroyed. The duo falls in with the rebel group BIS, which seeks to free Mars from UNSF oppression. The Fist of Mars plays similar to the Super Robot Wars series, but changes the formula with a crosshair-aligning gameplay system that determines whether attacks hit or miss. Although stats determine how difficult this is, any unit can hit any enemy and dodge any attack if the player plays skillfully.A sequel, Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner (ANUBIS: Zone of the Enders in Japan), was released on the PlayStation 2 in 2003. Ice miner and former BAHRAM soldier Dingo Egret finds Jehuty hidden on Callisto. Hostile BAHRAM soldiers arrive and Dingo is forced to fight his way to their command ship, where he meets his old colleague and BAHRAM's leader, Nohman. Dingo refuses an offer to rejoin the group, so Nohman shoots him. Dingo wakes up hardwired to Jehuty's life-support systems, unable to leave the cockpit. Ken Marinaris, a soldier Dingo fought on Callisto, explains that she's a UNSF spy and requests his assistance in exchange for having saved his life. Dingo escapes to Mars, battles BAHRAM forces, and clashes with Leo Stenbuck in the Vic Viper. He steels himself to settle the score with Nohman and finish the destined battle between Jehuty and its Evil Counterpart, Anubis.Despite middling sales, Zone of the Enders continues to be a cult favorite and was a bit of a pet project for Kojima. A sequel was announced in 2012, showing off Darker and Edgier looks for Jehuty and Anubis and promising more fantasy elements. An HD Collection of the first two console games was released in October 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 (and came with a demo for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance). Unfortunately, the ports were poorly remastered and ended up running at worse frame rates than the PlayStation 2 versions. In response, Kojima Productions and Hexa Drive (the same folks behind the HD re-releases of Rez and Ōkami) created a patch to fix the errors introduced by the original porting team, High Voltage Software. The patch was released in July 2013, rectifying the PlayStation 3 version of The 2nd Runner while the Xbox 360 version and both versions of the original game were left untouched. The Play Station Vita version of the HD Collection and the would-be-sequel were Quietly Canceled.Another remaster of The 2nd Runner, titled "Zone of The Enders: The 2nd Runner M∀RS" was announced at Sony's TGS 2017 Press Conference. Developed by Konami in conjunction with Cygames, this new remaster includes enhanced 4K graphics, remastered sound design for 5.1 surround sound presentation, and the ability to play through the entire game in VR from the perspective of the inside of Jehuty's cockpit (hence why the A in "M∀RS" is upside down in the logo). It was released on PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam on September 4, 2018.This series has nothing to do with Ender's Game. Or the Zone of the Endermen, for that matter. | |

Cherry Tapping: Forced upon you in The 2nd Runner when you fight Anubis for real Jehuty has been damaged, leaving the only things it can do is blade, dash, grab, BURST-blade and Zero Shift. No shield nor long-range weapons of any kind. Needless to say, it makes Anubis insanely hard on your first attempts. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The control cockpits for the humanoid Orbital Frames and LEVs are located on the front, right between the mech's legs. Played for laughs in the episode "Final Countdown" of Dolores, i. When James went to check up on Noel who was working with the old man, he overheard them doing something that sounded rather suggestive. It turned out Noel was just polishing pipes for the rocket's repairs, much to James' embarrassment. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: In the episode "Die Hard" of Dolores, i, James Links comments that the air on Mars has a 0.04% oxygen content, but that the air around the oxygen plant has a 30% oxygen concentration, enough to live, but not stay conscious without a mask. Earth only has a 20% oxygen concentration. This might be chalked up to a thinner atmosphere (where higher oxygen concentration would be necessary to be breathable), except that the characters have already stated on several occasions that the Martian atmosphere is three times denser than Earth's. This COULD be hand-waved as indicating that there's actually too much oxygen in the local atmosphere, at too high pressure, resulting in hyperoxia and oxygen toxicity, which could certainly result in Noel fainting. And to be fair, James merely describes the air as "almost breathable," without indicating whether that means too little or too much oxygen. Still, the implication is clearly "too little," and Noel's collapse is rather too sudden to indicate hyperoxia, so it's a weak explanation at best. | |

Multiple Endings | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: The first game featured two possible endings based on how you performed on the survivor missions and how much damage was caused to the colony. The "Good" ending is earned by leaving as little damage to the colony and saving as many survivors as possible. The "Bad" ending, doubling as a Non-Standard Game Over, is earned by destroying the colony and letting the survivors die. | |

Brutal Honesty: ADA tends to be rather blunt when explaining grim or tragic situations. This is mainly due to her being an AI, she was never programmed to understand how human tact works, and only knows how to give debriefings in a matter-of-fact way. This scene in the first game is a good example of that. | |

Wave-Motion Gun | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_263bb4ec | comment |
Wave-Motion Gun: The Vector Cannon, as a BFG for Orbital Frames. It takes approximately twenty seconds to charge, and when it fires shoots a blast that damned near eclipses Jehuty in size and will rip through anything and everything in its path. It's capable of tearing apart battleships in a single blast. The Vector Cannon is the only weapon capable of punching through "Compressed Space", the games term for super-invincible force-fields. Dolores can use one by using the Wave-Motion Tuning Fork that can extend and retract from her body, doubling as a Chest Blaster, oddly enough. | |

Despite having zero combat experience, let alone in the military, he's able to pick up on the controls and flow of Jehuty's mechanics rather quickly, being able to lay waste to the more experienced Orbital Frame Runners such as Viola. And it grates on her every nerve with their each encounter. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: The first game on the PlayStation 2 has a very nasty bug that occurs if the system's internal clock isn't set: saving at any moment in the map not only crashes the game, but also kicks the game back to the system's Browser menu. And while a save file is created, the game will fail to recognize it, as if the file is corrupted. The only way to fix this issue is by setting the time and date of the internal clock. | |

Lethal Joke Character: The single-sword Raptor in the first Zone of the Enders' Versus Mode. You have to beat the game twice to unlock it and Zombie Neith (which is itself a powerhouse), but from all outward appearances, it's only a weaker version of the already anemic Raptor. Then you realize the third strike on its 3-hit combo completely bypasses shields... Damaged Jehuty, normally used only during the Compression Space battle against Anubis, is available to play for the entire game on New Game Plus. While it doesn't have a shield or any normal ranged attacks, it has infinite subweapon energy. | |

Boring, but Practical: The Gauntlet subweapon. It isn't anything flashy, being a simple projectile that knocks back whatever enemy it hits. However, it's incredibly flexible; it stops a foe from attacking, breaks its guard, causes a lot of damage when said foe slams into a wall, is very energy-efficient, and you get it early in the campaign. The Gauntlet is a tool you'll be relying on a lot. | |

Degraded Boss: The 2nd Runner offers a subversion where the area just before the final boss allows Naked Jehuty to farm energy by destroying copies of Nephthys, previously a major boss which Naked Jehuty can now destroy in one or two hits. Selected Naked Jehuty on New Game Plus and going up against the original Nephthys will reveal that the mass-produced copies are in fact exactly the same as the original; Naked Jehuty's damage output really is just that high. | |

Bittersweet Ending: In the first game, Viola has been defeated, Celvice is safe, the space colony is okay, but BAHRAM still exists. Furthermore, ADA informs Leo she is programmed to self-destruct to destroy the fortress Aumaan, which leaves Leo distraught. In The 2nd Runner, Dingo kills Nohman and uses Anubis's reactor to destroy Aumaan so ADA doesn't need to self-destruct to do so. Leo, Ken, ADA and Dingo all survive, and Dingo is at last removed from Jehuty to have his heart and lungs replaced so he can live outside the Orbital Frame. However, thousands upon thousands died in the war, Mars and Earth are only in an uneasy truce, and the dangers of a Toxic Phlebotinum like Metatron creating a second Nohman and Doomsday Device like Auuman still remain. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: It is implied that the AI in this series is more or less a reflection of the frame runner's psyche, so this trope gets played with a lot: The AI of Hathor and Anubis are decidedly evil, while Hathor's twin sister Dolores is a bubbly and innocent Robot Girl. By contrast, Dolores's alternate identity, Isis, while seeming evil at first glance, is really just a neutral Combat Pragmatist who will readily relinquish control to the pilot or Dolores... as soon as any perceived threat is eliminated with EXTREME and unrestrained prejudice. Dolores is actually a unique example, as she turns out to be a remnant of Dolores Hayes's persona, which became imprinted on Idolo when she died. Viola's AI from The 2nd Runner is a full-on psycho. Though initially neutral, ADA evolves into a Benevolent A.I., as does Pharsti from The Fist of Mars. In Dolores, i one Raptor goes rogue and ends up becoming friends with Dolores. | |

Pressure-Sensitive Interface | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_4387800d | comment |
Pressure-Sensitive Interface: The Phalanx sub-weapon, which a light push results in a wide-angle, point-blank spray, while a hard one increases the range from "melee" to merely "short" with a narrower spread. This gets expanded in Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner, where Jehuty's main shot and certain sub-weapons have alternate firing modes based on the amount of pressure being used on the Circle button. This feature was replaced in the Xbox 360 version with timed presses instead as the Xbox 360 controller lacks pressure-sensitive buttons, but the M∀RS remaster features a "PRO" control scheme that re-implements the pressure-sensitive sub-weapon features through using the analog R2/RT trigger. | |

Actionized Sequel | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_4389e368 | comment |
Actionized Sequel: The 2nd Runner compared to the original game. The 2nd Runner ditched the open-exploration gameplay of the first Zone of the Enders and went with a more linear approach of progression. The first game also involves lots of backtracking and looking for certain items or perform certain tasks to progress further into the game whereas the sequel emphasizes much more on action and fighting (for the most part), while at the same time, making much better use of the improved grabbing mechanics. | |

Villain Teleportation: Anubis. It will warp from one area to another at will, often to keep Jehuty from touching it. Hathor has an inferior version of the same system as well. | |

Gameplay Grading | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_4577bd49 | comment |
Gameplay Grading: In the first game, you are graded during civilian rescue missions based on the percentage of survivors remaining and the destruction of the area, and graded between a rank of E (if anything is destroyed and no survivors are left) to A (no buildings were destroyed and less than 10% of survivors were lost). The game gives you an overall ranking at the end based on how long it took to finish the game, how many times you saved, difficulty level played, continues used (if at all), enemies defeated, and your ranking for the survivor rescue missions. The 2nd Runner uses a similar grading system for the Vascilia and BAHRAM sequences, and the overall ranking at the end of the game grades you based on score and highest combo along with the previous factors sans the difficulty level. | |

Worthy Opponent: In a twisted way, Viola regards Leo as a worthy enemy, rejecting Nohman's argument that he's Just a Kid who happened to get his hands on an overpowered Orbital Frame. She won't leave the Jupiter colony until she's fought him to the finish to prove that he's not better than her, and despite the fact that it turns out he is, she's able to accept her loss (and death) with a quiet dignity when Leo tells her how strong she was. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The opening sequence paints Dingo as a good natured man, if slightly rough around the edges, who values his friends and comrades and will fight to protect them. However, the events that occur after he discovers Jehuty (meeting his old CO, getting shot by his old CO, being painfully integrated into Jehuty and forced to fight in a war he was actively trying to avoid) make him rather grumpy at best. | |

Compilation Re-release | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_4a932556 | comment |
The HD Collection, available for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, compiles both of the main games in the series with HD visuals; this is also the first time that the Special Edition of The 2nd Runner saw a North American release. Unfortunately the games, most notably The 2nd Runner on PlayStation 3, went against Konami's intentions of bring these games in 1080p with 60 FPS; the games were upscaled for 720p and had frame-rate stability issues. Konami and Hexa Drive later released a patch exclusively for the PlayStation 3 version to rectify the issues. | |

Improvised Weapon: One of the things The 2nd Runner encourages you to do is using objects around your surroundings to fight enemies. If there's an iron beam around, smack a couple of Raptors and Mummyheads around with it! If you see a solar panel nearby, grab it and protect yourself from attacks that are normally unblockable! If you can't find anything useful, then use your enemies instead! | |

Flash Step: Zero Shift, which allows Jehuty to instantaneously warp to locked targets, even from long distances. Anubis also possesses a similar ability. The process involves using the space-compressing properties of Metatron to compress space between the user and the destination and then de-compressing the space to propel the user, enabling an Alcubierre Drive-like effect. | |

Die, Chair, Die! | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_5832e916 | comment |
Die, Chair, Die!: The first game is very focused on avoiding this; while you don't see their faces, Antilia is very much still inhabited by civilians that will most likely die if Leo isn't careful with his attacks. This can have game ending consequences, in fact; failing all the SOS missions (aka blowing everything and everyone up) will cause an explosion in a key part of the colony, killing Thunderheart and ending the game early. And ADA will, quite rightly, chew you out for it. In The 2nd Runner however, collateral damage is less of an issue as Dingo almost never finds himself in a civilian zone. This trope is still averted here and there, however; a BURST Shot on the container concealing Taper's LEV, for example, will have deadly results. In the episode "Final Countdown" of Dolores, i, James became worried when Noel, who was working with an old astronaut retiree at the time, and took his frustration out on a bench considering the impression he left on him towards Noel after he tied up James and his family when they first met. | |

By contrast, Dolores's alternate identity, Isis, while seeming evil at first glance, is really just a neutral Combat Pragmatist who will readily relinquish control to the pilot or Dolores... as soon as any perceived threat is eliminated with EXTREME and unrestrained prejudice. Dolores is actually a unique example, as she turns out to be a remnant of Dolores Hayes's persona, which became imprinted on Idolo when she died. | |

Grievous Harm with a Body: Jehuty can grab enemy mechs and whack more enemies with the one it grabbed. Of note is the 'escort' missions, where you can do this with Taper's LEV and Ardjet, and during The War Sequence (where the Vic Viper has infinite health, so a sound strategy is just to grab it and whack away until everything that is not your friend dies). | |

Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_637ef67 | comment |
The 2nd Runner: Beating the game the first time unlocks New Game Plus features that can be selected when starting a new game, the Versus Mode, and the Extra Missions. Other Frames can be unlocked by finding them in secret places that weren't accessible from the initial playthrough, and the Extra Missions can be expanded by collecting EX Mission Files scattered throughout the game (although one requires access to the Wisp sub-weapon via New Game+). There's also a unlockable mini-game in the form of ZORADIUS, a 3D on-rails version of Gradius where players pilots Leo's Vic Viper while using many of its parent series' familiar gameplay elements. In The 2nd Runner M∀RS, it adds an unlockable Movie Viewer, Model and Artwork Gallery, and a Hanger mode where players can explore the Deimos station area on foot as Dingo in first-person or VR. | |

Alternatively, you can select them in the pause screen, and in the second game, hold the L1/LB button or the Q key to pause the game while you pick out your sub-weapon. The M∀RS remaster's "PRO" control style also assigns the the D-pad to a set of sub-weapons that can be changed on the fly on each of the D-pad's directions. | |

Almighty Janitor: Dingo, the protagonist of The 2nd Runner, is a Jupiter ice miner who was formally a BAHRAM military pilot, and is a genius runner to the extent to be rumored to be the only one that can match Nohman in one-on-one battle. His piloting skills are also another reason why the Jehuty in the second game is far stronger and more useful than in the first game (in addition to getting upgrades throughout the former the latter game never received). James Links, main protagonist of the anime, is just a lowly truck driver... and a former decorated, highly skilled LEV military pilot. Even if his mech's AI is keeping watch over all the complex background sub-systems, she is very much NOT suited for fighting, which means all that brutal ass-whooping that gets dealt out over the course of the series? That's all James. | |

Beginner's Luck: Leo and Cage, helped by the fact that they have some stupidly-powerful mecha with good AI. The exception is in Dolores, i, since James is a UNSF veteran, but the Dolores' AI is, well... not suited for combat. Then again, James isn't too good at the beginning either, as he's never piloted an Orbital Frame before. He actually improves fairly slowly (and on paper isn't a match for any of the "elites", though he generally muddles through with sheer pluck and the fact that his new "niece" is a Super Prototype). | |

BFG | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_8344209e | comment |
The Vector Cannon, as a BFG for Orbital Frames. It takes approximately twenty seconds to charge, and when it fires shoots a blast that damned near eclipses Jehuty in size and will rip through anything and everything in its path. It's capable of tearing apart battleships in a single blast. The Vector Cannon is the only weapon capable of punching through "Compressed Space", the games term for super-invincible force-fields. | |

In The 2nd Runner however, collateral damage is less of an issue as Dingo almost never finds himself in a civilian zone. This trope is still averted here and there, however; a BURST Shot on the container concealing Taper's LEV, for example, will have deadly results. | |

Non-Standard Game Over: The first game has one, but it is so hard to get that most players are unaware it even exists. If you fail all SOS missions, Thunderheart is suddenly killed by a random explosion as soon as you contact him, without any foreshadowing whatsoever. ADA confirms it was caused by Jehuty hitting an underground power line, meaning that Leo is directly responsible for his death. The game then ends just as ADA flatly asks "Are you happy now?" | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The 2nd Runner is rife with it, but it doesn't really hurt the game overall. Dolores, i also suffers from this in the early episodes, featuring translations like "Orbital Flame". While this was fixed by the end of the series, the damage was already done. Though it should be noted that the DVD release fixes this mistake from the start. A small but egregiously noteworthy one in Dolores, i states, at the end of the series, that the plan to crash the orbital elevator onto earth will wipe out the entire population of the planet... 120 million people. Wait, WHAT? Why is the population of the Earth in the 22nd century less than two-hundredths of the current population? This is generally accepted to be a translation error of two decimal places, and the intended number was 12 billion. | |

A tentative example in the names of the main protagonists: ZOE's hero is named Leo ("Lion"), 2nd Runner's is named Dingo, and Dolores, i's is named James Links (i.e. "Lynx"). One might even stretch the concept to include The Fist of Mars by saying such animals belong in a 'Cage,' but that's a reach. And there's no real connection at all to Idolo's Radium Lavans. Of course, seeing how the movie is a glorified pilot for Dolores, i, and Radium is actually the villain of the series, that could be excused. | |

Tech-Demo Game: Zone of the Enders is generally considered this, not specifically from the player's perspective, but from the developer's perspective, seeing as it uses the same game engine as the higher-profile game Metal Gear Solid 2, so it's easy to think of Zone of the Enders as Kojima Productions' warm-up game before they tackled MGS2. | |

ADA's goal is to destroy Aumaan by self-destructing Jehuty. Thanks to the efforts of Dingo, he not only saved the Solar System, but ADA as well. | |

A Mech by Any Other Name | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_a247c4bf | comment |
A Mech by Any Other Name: Orbital Frames and LEVs. To further distinguish them from one another, Orbital Frames being immeasurably superior to LEVs in virtually every way possible. The only thing LEVs have on frames is they can be manufactured with common materials. Although by The 2nd Runner, commercial LEV technology, as with the Vic Viper, had just about caught up with Orbital Frames, at least with a decent pilot who can give an Orbital Frame a run for its money. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: Nohman is generally calm and soft-spoken in the first game and when Dingo first confronts him in The 2nd Runner (even while pumping the latter full of bullets). By the next time you meet him, he's clearly gone off the deep end. The reason for this is never fully explained. It is however implied that his exposure to Metatron piloting the Anubis between the first game and The 2nd Runner causes him to lose his sanity and turn him into a creepy albino. He appears in Dolores, i looking like a normal human being and still thinking rationally. | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: The name of Naked Jehuty may sound stupid, but there is only one Orbital Frame that can withstand it's one full blade combo, and that one foe, is the Final Boss itself. Naked Jehuty also has infinite sub-weapon energy, allowing it to spam Homing Missiles to wipe out everything in seconds, and use Mummy to recover its energy gauge while blocking virtually everything the game throws at it. For the full run-down: It's basic shot attack will One-Hit KO any non-boss, most non-boss attacks won't do any damage, the only attack it can't guard against is the Final Boss's BURST attack, simply using it's BURST mode will destroy enemies in melee-range and it has Infinite SP energy. Justified since it's Jehuty after absorbing Anubis' energy. It is the combination of the two most powerful Orbital Frames ever created, so what do you expect? To further highlight Naked Jehuty's power, those Nephtis clones you fight on Phobos's surface? Yeah, they're just as strong as the real Nephtis was... and they die in two hits. | |

Demoted to Extra: Leo goes from being the main character in the first game, to a supporting character in The 2nd Runner. Early on in the The Fist of Mars, if you decide to spare Nadia, you begin a process which will lead to her having a Heel–Face Turn. There could have been a virtual goldmine of tension between her and the Eviler than Thou newcomer Amante, or at least something about her learning and growing. Unfortunately, she doesn't even get twenty more lines in the whole game. Nohman is the Big Bad of the entire series, serving as a Post-Climax Confrontation Hopeless Boss Fight in the first game, and the primary antagonist for the whole of the sequel. But in Dolores, i? He's just some cocky jerk who shows up to mock Pleminger's BAHRAM unit.It's revealed in backstory materials that Nohman was running his own gambit to take over Bahram via the chaos Radium's plan created. | |

Remaster | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_bc46a33a | comment |
Remaster: The 2012 HD Collection was supposed to be this for the first two PlayStation 2 games, but due to how High Voltage Studios ported these games to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the games ended up being upscaled to 720p rather than having their graphics updated for 1080p standards, which took another developer (Hexa Drive) to deliver on those promises but only for The 2nd Runner on the PlayStation 3 version of the collection. The 2nd Runner would go onto to receive another remaster in 2018 with Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner M∀RS, featuring higher resolution textures, enhanced visual effects, remastered audio for 5.1 surround sound presentation, VR support, and other quality-of-life enhancements, but plays essentially the same as the HD Collection version (which itself was based off the PlayStation 2's Special Edition re-release). | |

True Companions: Dingo goes into a BAHRAM ship in order to draw BAHRAM away from Callisto so his miner friends do not get hurt. Also, his main motivation to fight against BAHRAM is to avenge his fallen comrades who were unknowingly sent on a suicide mission to be used as a decoy. Dingo was the only one who survived from the UNSF's assault. | |

In The 2nd Runner, Leo goes head-to-head against Dingo and proves to be a serious threat, even though Dingo has a true Orbital Frame and Leo's machine is the Vic Viper- a 'mere' LEV with no Metatron technology. The kid was just born with a natural talent. Even Viola is forced to admit it when she refuses Nohman's order to withdraw because her pride won't allow her to leave without settling the score after he's beaten her once already. | |

Non-Standard Character Design | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_c55c31e2 | comment |
Non-Standard Character Design: Zakat, unlike all the other Orbital Frames, it is a freaking battleship in the shape a small-yet-GIANT moon! The Inhert is also a case of this looking more like something straight out of the Shin Megami Tensei series. But considering who designed it*(Kazuma Kaneko of Shin Megami Tensei fame, who also designed Lloyd as well), it makes sense. To elaborate, it is the only Frame that has the cockpit on the head, cockpit itself being shaped like a statue of a woman with a sword and angelic wings, which is white in contrast to the rest of the Frame being covered in some sort of black shielding. Tempest and Tyrant from the first game are also this, being as though the former is easily the size of a small mountain and has multiple octopus-like arms (that have flamethrowers) and the latter being a huge crab... egg... ship-like thing. Nebula looks like both a common spaceship and transforms into some sort of giant squid. It Makes As Much Sense In Context. | |

Shout-Out | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In The 2nd Runner, Leo appears piloting a Transforming Mecha featuring up to four "Options" that trail behind him duplicating his attacks, a ringlike "Aura Bolt" attack, and a distinctive energy barrier that changes color as it wears down. The mech's name? Vic Viper. Its aircraft design is even inspired by the original ship. Leo's Battle Theme Music is a shout-out as well. This goes beyond this in earlier design sketches that showed the Vic Viper being far closer to the original Gradius design. Presumably the design changes were made to better animate its transformation and bipedal form. | |

Evil Knockoff: Almost every design that Dezeele Zephyrs produces in The Fist of Mars is plagiarized from one of the bosses in the first game, something noted in the game itself. On one of the two routes, the mass-produced Ifrits also made by Zephyrs are evil knockoffs of Cage's Orbital Frame, Testament, although in this case he created the original as well. | |

The Chessmaster: Nohman is shown to be one in the Expanded Universe. In Dolores, i, he allows Radium to go through with his plan because he knows it's a suicide mission that will take Hathor off the table, and even if he succeeds, it will destroy the Space Force, which is the only real opposition to Project Aumaan. Also, the chaos created by Radium's plan had crippled the leadership of BAHRAM. It is revealed in The Stinger at the end of The Fist of Mars that the entire game's plot was a ploy to get rid of his opposition within the leadership of BAHRAM. Both of these events events allow him to take complete control over BAHRAM and Mars in the time between Zone of the Enders and The 2nd Runner | |

Unlockable Content | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_d94a0b6 | comment |
Unlockable Content: The two mainline games have some extra unlockables after beating the game, especially in the second game and its subsequent ports. Zone of the Enders: Beating the game the first time unlocks the Versus Mode, and beating it second time in any difficulty unlocks two extra secret characters and stages for the Versus Mode. The 2nd Runner: Beating the game the first time unlocks New Game Plus features that can be selected when starting a new game, the Versus Mode, and the Extra Missions. Other Frames can be unlocked by finding them in secret places that weren't accessible from the initial playthrough, and the Extra Missions can be expanded by collecting EX Mission Files scattered throughout the game (although one requires access to the Wisp sub-weapon via New Game+). There's also a unlockable mini-game in the form of ZORADIUS, a 3D on-rails version of Gradius where players pilots Leo's Vic Viper while using many of its parent series' familiar gameplay elements. In The 2nd Runner M∀RS, it adds an unlockable Movie Viewer, Model and Artwork Gallery, and a Hanger mode where players can explore the Deimos station area on foot as Dingo in first-person or VR. | |

Lightning Bruiser: The Vic Viper is the most overpowered machine in the game with its ability to outfight nearly every Orbital Frame in the game without breaking a sweat. At maximum power and speed, the machine becomes a monster and it doesn't matter how much HP it has, as long as it is not 0, it WILL kick your ass. Not that Naked Jehuty or Testament are slouches, either. | |

Updated Re-release | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_df1793de | comment |
Updated Re-release: The 2nd Runner received a re-release in Japan and PAL regions (North America was left out) with the Special Edition, which irons out the frame-rate of the game, added new battle sequences to the main storyline, expanded the VR Missions mode, added new difficulty levels, and featured tutorials for the sub-weapons. The HD Collection, available for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, compiles both of the main games in the series with HD visuals; this is also the first time that the Special Edition of The 2nd Runner saw a North American release. Unfortunately the games, most notably The 2nd Runner on PlayStation 3, went against Konami's intentions of bring these games in 1080p with 60 FPS; the games were upscaled for 720p and had frame-rate stability issues. Konami and Hexa Drive later released a patch exclusively for the PlayStation 3 version to rectify the issues. Another re-release of The 2nd Runner was released on PlayStation and PC through Steam in 2018 as Zone of The Enders: The 2nd Runner M∀RS, which further enhances the visuals to 4K, features remastered sound design, revised tutorials, added a new "VERY EASY" difficulty for beginners of Zone of the Enders, a new "PRO" control layout, and revamped the ZORADIUS mini-game. It's other new feature is being able to experience the game in VR through Jehuty's cockpit. The PC version also features some extra optional visual tweaks such as screen-space reflections and occlusion, optional film grain filter, and motion blur effects. | |

Optional Boss | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_e0606d52 | comment |
Optional Boss: A secret area hidden in the second game can be accessed on New Game Plus by using the Vector Cannon in a level taking place way before the player obtains it in the main campaign. Accessing it allows players to fight against a slightly toned-down version of Aumaan Anubis. There's also another hidden area in the Aumann Fortress, the game's penultimate stage. Accessing this area will take players into boss battle against Naked Jehuty if they're not already using said form of Jehuty. | |

Bag of Holding: Vector Traps, "pocket dimensions" of folded-over space enabled by Metatron's space-bending properties. A Vector Trap can hold a theoretically limitless volume, but mass is still a factor for the device carrying it. This is what enables the Hyperspace Arsenal of Orbital Frames, and the Clown-Car Base of Cellars that deploy unmanned frames. | |

Classic Cheat Code: In the first game, inputting the Konami Code restores Jehuty's energy gauge and sub-weapon ammo, at the expense of lowering its level. Also, the Versus Mode in the first game can be unlocked with the Konami Code as well. The 2nd Runner also featured the Konami Code as an alternative method to unlock Zoradius. | |

The Gift | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_e42fbc | comment |
The Gift: Leo Stenbuck has this in spades. He is a complete civilian at the beginning of the first game, Falling into the Cockpit purely by accident while looking for shelter from the war outside its hangar. Once he's inside, however, he masters the powerful Frame ridiculously quickly, tearing a swathe through BAHRAM's forces (even the Frames piloted by hardened aces!). Even when ADA is crippled by a viral attack, Leo's piloting skills aren't diminished in the least. When he finally tries to hand the mech off to Rock Thunderheart, the veteran soldier bluntly tells the teenager that Leo is the better pilot, and trusts him to singlehandedly put down Viola and save the colony. Only when Nohman shows up in Anubis- Jehuty's sister frame and equal- is he truly outmatched. In The 2nd Runner, Leo goes head-to-head against Dingo and proves to be a serious threat, even though Dingo has a true Orbital Frame and Leo's machine is the Vic Viper- a 'mere' LEV with no Metatron technology. The kid was just born with a natural talent. Even Viola is forced to admit it when she refuses Nohman's order to withdraw because her pride won't allow her to leave without settling the score after he's beaten her once already. | |

Not Quite Dead: Viola's Neith near the end in the first game gets wrecked and reduced to shambles by Leo, who ultimately spares her despite being responsible for the death of his friends and nearly killing Celvice. Viola comes back for the final boss battle, with the same broken Frame with pieces of its broken arms floating next to it. | |

Expy: For his emotional issues, Cage from The Fist of Mars has been compared to Shinji from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Fortunately, Cage has more backbone and friends who actually trust him than the poor Butt-Monkey from Evangelion. Task Force ACEMOS is highly similar to the Titans from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, especially in their racist beliefs. They're also led by a corrupt, schemer with serious ego issues. And of course, Leo and Celvice are obviously Amuro and Frau Bow. Ken resembles Elly and her Orbital Frame, the Ardjet, resembles Elly's Gear, the Vierge/El Regrs. | |

Flanderization: The Viola A.I that appears in The 2nd Runner lacks any of the nuance of the original, and is driven solely by the obesession to hunt down Jehuty. As Dingo aptly puts it upon her deletion, all Nohman recreated was little more then a vengeful ghost. | |

Brain Uploading | |

Brain Uploading: A partial, unintentional example, Upon her death, Dolores Hayes's persona becomes partially imprinted on Idolo, eventually becoming the Dolores AI when the remains of Idolo were used to construct the Isis frame. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Push Dolores enough and you run the risk of waking her ISIS mode, which will terminate you in the most efficient manner possible. | |

Theme Naming | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: Most of the important mecha in the series are named after Egyptian deities. Even Dolores from Dolores, i fits this: the unit's real name is Isis. A tentative example in the names of the main protagonists: ZOE's hero is named Leo ("Lion"), 2nd Runner's is named Dingo, and Dolores, i's is named James Links (i.e. "Lynx"). One might even stretch the concept to include The Fist of Mars by saying such animals belong in a 'Cage,' but that's a reach. And there's no real connection at all to Idolo's Radium Lavans. Of course, seeing how the movie is a glorified pilot for Dolores, i, and Radium is actually the villain of the series, that could be excused. In The Fist of Mars the main character's mech is named Testament and the main antagonist's mech is named the Iblis, the name of the primary devil in Islam. Also, Testament's Evil Knockoff is named Ifrit. Barring Testament, all of the BIS' LEVs & OFs are named after weapons: Edge, Blade, Calibur, Caliburnus, Durandal, Orcrist, Vjaya (a mispelling of Vajra,) Dreizehn (real name "Toradar"), and Justeen (real name "Francesca".) Vic Viper is the Odd Name Out, for good reason. More formally, that model of LEV is referred to as a "V2 Unit". | |

Spider Tank: The aptly-named Spiders, although they're really small (compared to an Orbital Frame). | |

Death Seeker | |
Zone of the Enders (Video Game) / int_fff371b4 | comment |
Death Seeker: Viola. Pure and simple. She everything she ever wanted to live for as a BAHRAM soldier; she already lost her family and friends at the hands of UNSF soldiers, was already ill from space radiation, and especially after her romantic crush, Radam, was killed in action, and the only thing that gave her life meaning anymore was fighting. | |
