* SurpriseDifficulty: Don't let the colorful and whimsical aesthetics fool you. This is not an RPG meant for beginners of the genre. If you don't learn how to properly block attacks or how to make the fullest use of Crisbell's time abilities, even basic enemies can royally kick your ass.

* HilariousInHindsight: A main feature of the game is time travel and the reveal that if one travels far back enough in time, it creates a temporal duplicate. This allows two versions of the person to co-exist. The time travel involved in the game also involves the potential to create alternate/new worlds. Marvel's ''Loki'', released shortly before the game released, also feature "Variants" of people existing at the same time and time travel shenanigans as well, resulting in new timelines.
** Ardo looks a lot like Kars of the Pillar Men, from ''Jojo's Bizarre Adventure''.

** The Adri DLC updates Ardo's moves to include Time Break Synchro, putting him into this trope. Time Break Synchro stops time for the party for a while, allowing Ardo to spam strong, unblockable special moves. One of your party members is guaranteed to lose all their HP in the process and be unable to fight. Once Ardo starts using Time Break Synchro, he will use nothing but it and Time Compression, an HPToOne move, to where you're focused entirely on healing and reviving until you can no longer keep up.

** A few months after this game was released, [[VideoGame/TalesOfArise another RPG game]] that had the name "Tales" in its title, a race that contained "Rena" in its name, and said race being involved in a racial conflict was released. The main difference is that the Renans in ''Tales of Arise'' are the oppressors rather than the victims.
