* SituationalSword: The aforementioned LaserBlade. It costs no MP/time to keep active, instead draining only a small amount per hit, and deals little damage. Against beefier enemies it's CoolButInefficient, and against bosses it's usually a waste of resources since it doesn't discriminate between the boss and any destructible entities they spawn. Against the [[LedgeBats weaker and respawning enemies that usually show up in platforming sections]] however, it's easy the best weapon in the game. It's also ideal for sniffing out breakable walls, as it will lock on to them regardless of whether or not the player knows they're there.

** An in-universe example is the (in-universe) "game's" implementation of BottomlessMagazines: Sakuya actually has a limited (if large) number of knives, and normally relies on her flight and temporal powers to collect them for reuse, using magic to tag them when thrown so she can reflexively recover them in an (even subjective) instant. (This is why manually recollecting a knife recovers some of the magic cost of throwing it). When Remilia first mentions she didn't entirely cut off Sakuya's power, this is part of what she was leaving alone: the game wouldn't be fun for her to watch either if almost all of it consisted of Sakuya constantly having to get to and extract her knives from random ceilings and corners.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: It's too understated to really be a ChekhovsGag, but one of the first things the player will notice entering the game world is that it's raining. Remilia will comment that it's raining (and that it wasn't necessary), and the topic will come up later when (while this is in-character for her) Patchouli bows out of her boss fight as soon as she's weakening. Water is used throughout the game as an obstacle for Sakuya. Furthermore, there's a powerful holy weapon introduced into this version of the mansion (although this is by itself actually in-character for Remilia). All of this together is foreshadowing [[spoiler: that Remilia, a vampire, made this space as a playground for her dangerous and not always sane little sister, that Patchouli lost track of said vampire and surrounded the fake mansion with running water as a precaution against her getting loose and out of bounds while preserving enough strength to call sunlight if necessary for self-defense, and that by the time of Sakuya's battle with Flandre all the mansion's other residents have figured out what was going on]].

* ConspicuouslyLightPatch: Much like everything else that can damage you, falling chandeliers don't turn to greyscale when time is stopped. This is one of a few ways in which you can tell them apart from the safe ones.
* CycleOfHurting: Possible to inflict this on yourself if you stop time in the wrong place. While there is MercyInvincibility, it often doesn't last long enough for you to get through whatever obstacle knocked you down in the first place. If you're boxed in, your only option is to let time flow again until an escape route opens up.

** There's also the more standard form of post-hit invincibility. Interestingly, since it lasts just as long regardless of whether time is stopped or not, it creates an interesting trade-off with Sakuya's time stop abilities in which it's sometimes better to tank a boss's attack in normal time whereas you'd take multiple hits in stopped time.
