(update links)
Line 145:
** The newest Dead Or Alive game seems to be putting their strengths close to the power shown in [[Ninja Gaiden]] where they are full fledged combat wizards. So either Monty is gonna have to up the ante or this trope is gonna be averted.
* [[Power Gives You Wings]]:
** Rinoa has angel wings to accompany her [[Took a Level Inin Badass|new levels in badass]].
** Naminé has ''keyblade wings'' with very versatile applications as seen in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6KQ_eYyhok this preview for DFVIII.] (spoilers for newly introduced characters)
* [[Punched Across the Room]]: And kicked, and thrown, and [[Blown Across the Room|blasted]]. Tifa and Hitomi even perform double knockdowns on each other this way. The laws of physics must be out to lunch. Or they're [[Rule of Cool|too busy watching]].
Line 173:
** In part II, Hitomi almost perfectly emulates [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS7hkwbKmBM Daigo's epic tournament victory] from [[Street Fighter|Third Strike]] against a hasted Tifa. Even the "parrying" sound effect is used (but instead of comboing into the win after parrying Tifa's attacks, Hitomi gets flipkicked in the face, and eats a [[Limit Break|Final Heaven]] shortly afterwards).
** In Part III, right after the rather lengthy opening credits "When Angels Cry" comes up on the screen as the soundtrack from ''[[Devil May Cry]] 3'' starts.
** Based on what little we've seen of Naminé in previews and promotional stuff, it looks like she's gonna be borrowing some moves from [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Nu-13]]. The ending of the preview, complete with {{spoiler|Vincent Valentine}} beside her, makes it look like she's channeling Xehanort from ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep]]''.
** Ayane's ninjutsu, particularly when she does a series of hand signs before smashing the tower, borrows the "jutsu use" sound effect from ''[[Naruto]]''.
* [[Soft Glass]]: Tifa just smashes through a window at full speed and keeps on going. Mind you, this is Tifa we're talking about.
Line 197:
* [[Throwing Your Sword Always Works]]: Or should we say "Launching your enemy's sword with a pipe always works"?
* [[To Be Continued]]: After the end of every episode so far, usually in those exact words.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]:
** Kairi goes from a [[Designated Victim]] to [[Action Girl]] [[Magic Warrior]] in 4 seconds after activating [[Super Mode|Valor Form]].
** Rinoa was already fairly powerful in ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', being a Sorceress and all, but she was still just a powerful spellcaster. In Part II, though she goes full-on ''Valkyrie'', complete with sword, shield, and wings.
