* MsFanservice: Laxia has a noticeably large chest and wide hips, and her first appearance post-prologue has her wearing a ModestyTowel. When Adol finds her, she takes a rapier with the hand holding the towel and attacks him; Adol parries the attack, causing her to lose her grip on the towel, rendering her nude. Along with (un)intended MaleGaze and DownloadableContent with her in various swimsuits in the UsefulNotes/PlayStationVita and the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch versions, she's the stand-out example for ''Ys VIII''.

* RealTimeWeaponChange: In the past, Dana can rescue spirits which grant her additional forms that influence her abilities, attacks and resistances. They change her weapons.
** "Iclucian" is her default form, a Slash-based style focused on attack skills and can douse out fires using her ice and wind abilities in this form. She wields dual crescent swords forged exclusively for her due to her short stature in this form. No other adult Eternians could wield those swords because they are too small for them. It has the best SP gain from charged attacks of all the forms.
** "Gratika", a [[MightyGlacier slow, yet powerful]] mode with Strike attributes, has the best defense, can successfully run against heavy winds, and can destroy blocks to traverse paths. She wields a wooden mallet in this form. Its main weakness is that it deals the lowest damage per second out of all three forms except against enemies weak against this form. It has moderate SP gain from its charged attacks.
** "Luminous", a swift Pierce-based style having FragileSpeedster and GlassCannon tendencies and the ability to interact with otherwise invisible enemies and environment. It can really deal out the damage per second and allows Dana to move faster than her other forms, but cannot take hits well at all due to its poor defense against everything other than ice and fire damage which it has a great defense against, forcing players to parry or dodge incoming attacks. She wields a piercing weapon in each hand in this form. It is also the worst form for building up SP from charged attacks.



* ShipTease: The bond between her and Adol via dreams even before they meet in-person isn't lost on the party and members of Castaway Village; [[spoiler:cemented in the GoldenEnding where she gives Adol an affectionate hug before they part ways]].
** This is still in full effect [[spoiler:three years later chronologically in her ''Ys IX'' cameo, wherein she's still very much carrying a torch for him and a ceaseless air of devotion.]]
