* Crashing into someone's hotel room through a hole in the wall is comedic enough (especially given how expensive the place is) but it's extra funny here because it's basically [[NiceGuy Kabbu's]] fault of all bugs. He admits that he saw the gap and [[MyInstinctsAreShowing apparently couldn't resist the urge to dig through it.]] And then Vi says to Carmina that she should complain to hotel management.

* During the {{Superboss}} fight with Team Maki, Maki will get a permanent attack buff after Yin is defeated. If Kina was already downed when this occurs, she gets [[ClingyJealousGirl so mad at the fact that he powered up when Yin went down but not when she did]] that she ''revives'' in order to complain to about it.

* The mere fact despite being fully capable of flying, Vi refuses to use this ability to fly her teammates, even when there were plenty of times she could have used it to make things far easier. In fact, you don't get access to the ability in the overworld until rather late in the game, after Queen Elizant basically orders for her to do it to cross a gap with no clear alternative way.

* For the sidquest "Explorer Check!", if you put together the names of all the characters involved in this quest, you get Gen, Eri, Cenn, Pisci, or... "Generic NPC". It's the punchline to a joke that begun with Gen and Eri's names all the way back at the beginning of the game, yet the most impressive aspect of this is that all of the individual names look fine in a vacuum.

* An easy-to-miss dialogue occurs during the quest "Theater Help Wanted!"; if you, during the second act (a fight with a Thief and a Bandit), let both enemies escape with your items, they actually flee the theater, much to Team Snakemouth's confusion, until Leif {{improv}}s the scene by claiming that the battle invigorated them. Outside, you can hear a voice call for security, pretty much confirming that the bandits you fight in the second act are ''the actual bandits'', who used their roles in the theater as an excuse to find a way to steal items there.

Kabbu is recognizing Mothiva's contribution during the Bee Facotry mission, but he's also putting her on the same level as Gen and Eri. She must be ''steaming''. And Kabbu doesn't even realize he's doing it, because he doesn't look down on Gen and Eri.

* The implication that the Midge Broodmother you fight at the Power Plant has apparently dealt with Wasps (judging by their spears left behind) prior to Team Snakemouth coming in. Which means she had [[AccidentalHero accidentally interrupted an invasion]] by them by being in the way and chasing them off.

* Trying to cook something and failing leads to a "Mistake", an item with negligible healing power. But if you then try to cook just the Mistake? You get a ''Big Mistake''; a food so bad that it's covered by {{Pixellation}}, and if you dare bite into it despite all warnings, [[HPTo1 a character's health drops to a single hit point]]. It's so bad, it doesn't even get a proper description: it simply says [[NoJustNoReaction "Please don't."]]
