Anvilicious: Kor tends to be the one giving the rousing speeches that spell out exactly what theme the game is trying to convey at that moment, which usually boils down to, "Friendship is awesome!".
Adorkable: Chalcedony is revealed as such in various skits not long after he joins the party, what with his deathly fear of bugs, inability to button up his own pyjamas (Pyrox used to do it for him), his absolute hopelessness as a cook... His reactions to almost all of these moments is to stammer, blush and then try to brush it off as nothing, or to simply quietly ask for help.
Spam arts that knock people up. They're usually staggered in the air and are nearly defenseless, so if you're good enough at spamming artes (or just using items to keep it up) you can pretty much stunlock enemies in the air. Unfortunately this doesn't work for everyone...
Pretty much everyone who plays R uses Chalcedony as their player character.
Complete Monster: Geocron Striegov is first introduced as just a typical Special Ops general under Silver. Shortly into his first appearance, however, he shows glee at torturing people, especially at whipping Kohaku Hearts. Then, when Creed Graphite resurfaced, he suddenly goes turncoat and then join forces with Creed, not caring about the latter's destructive ambition. During the next encounter, Geocron reveals that he is obsessed with collecting the Spiria Cores of living beings, taking great pleasure in seeing the suffering of those who lost their cores, one of them being Silver's daughter Lapis, and the reason why he became an Anti-Villain in the first place. In the end, he willfully Xerom-ized for nothing but power, caring about nothing but his own collection and desires.
Sexygeki Backkouken for Kohaku's "Final Fury" arte.
"dat ass" for Kohaku. Seriously, just look at the outfit.
Magnificent Bitch: Incarose is in equal parts the most vicious, cunning, and loyal mechanoid within Creed Graphite's inner circle. Working to unseal her master and dispose of Lithia, Incarose manipulated the Maximus Empire, the Valentin Church, and internal factions politically and strategically by providing the truth about Kohaku's Spiria Core, using their movements for her own gains, and keeping herself abreast of shifting circumstances. Although betrayed by Azide Silver, Incarose returns the favor by killing him when least expected while using the development to enrage Kor so much the seal on Creed is broken. Stopping at nothing to eliminate those against Creed's ambitions, Incarose fights to the bitter end, passing on while solemnly lamenting her devotion to her master.
Scrappy Mechanic: While the Vita fixes a lot of this, the DS version can get quite chuggy at times depending on how many enemies are on the screen. This can get even worse for people who are emulating it.
They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Some feel this in regards to the altered events in R. It's either for Gall's awkward inclusion, removal of fan-favorite dialogues and cameo Link Attacks, or the Flanderization of some characters (mainly Kohaku's)note though the latter is more related to the English localization.
