* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Oreg was spelled "Oleg" in his previous appearance in another fighting game by Polygon Magic known as ''Vs''.

* FakeBalance: Mercantile's wolf will lay down after taking too much combo damage, forcing the old man out into the fray, where he has practically no way of defending himself. Too bad most moves will miss the wolf entirely, so this will probably never happen against a human player.

* AxCrazy: Holemon, Nitro, Frosty, Mercantile, and possibly Oreg and Trash.

''SlapHappyRhythmBusters'' is a little known ridiculously named fighting game released on the PSX in 2000. Notable for its vibrant and weird design, its cell shaded 3D graphics during a time when such a thing was rare, and its unique gimmick in which super moves are performed in a Beatmania-esque mini game.

* AerithAndBob: From Chad and April to Zekoo and Mercantile.
* AlmightyJanitor: Trash, quite literally.

* {{BFG}}: Nitro and Frosty have them, and also April to a lesser extent.

* KamehameHadoken: Ramos has this as one of his supers.
%%* MightyGlacier: Nitro

* OneHandedZweihander: Rude Boy [and Jakoo] use one, although he mostly fights hand to hand.

* {{Shotoclone}}: Ramos, and by extension Dark Ramos.

* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Jakoo and Dark Ramos. Rude Boy can also do this mid-fight with a super move, although it doesn't do much besides make him bigger.
* TagTeam: Chad&Gram, Vivian&Roxy, Mercantile's wolves.

* VomitIndiscretionShot: Chad/Gram appears to have this as a move, where he hacks a green bubble across the screen.

* BalefulPolymorph: Holeman can turn his unfortunate victims into chickens with his birdcage helmet.

%%* KnifeNut: April

%% * BadassGrandpa: Zekoo

* {{Hammerspace}}: Trash's vacuum is capable of sucking up entire vehicles

* XMeetsY: ''[[VideoGame/StreetFighter Street Fighter]]'' meets ''[[VideoGame/JetSetRadio Jet Set Radio]]''.

* Shotoclone: Ramos, and by extension Dark Ramos

* AwesomeButImpractical: This is Nitro in a nutshell, although the biggest standout in his movelist is his beam spam super move, which has such a long start up that it's almost impossible to safely use in any given situation, and even then it can be simply blocked.

* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Players might get a little frustrated at first when shoryuken types moves use a down-down input instead of the more commonly used DP motion

* GratuitousEnglish: A given, due to the lack of export. Exteremely apparent in some loading screen comics.

* HitboxDissonance: Nitro clearly has terrible aim, as his machine gun attacks dont hit unless his target makes contact with the actual gun.

* MightyGlacier: Nitro

beam spam super move, which has such a long start up that it's almost impossible to safely use in any given
situation, and even then it can be simply blocked.

* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: There's some blatant button reading going on the AI end, which is more evident
with characters that have Shoryuken-type attacks.

use a down-down input instead of the more commonly used DP motion

* SomeDexterityRequired: Largely averted; the specials and super moves are very easy to pull off in comparison
to other fighters, never getting more complex than a simple quarter circle motion.

* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Jakoo and Dark Ramos. Rude Boy can also do this mid-fight with a super move,
although it doesn't do much besides make him bigger.
