'''''Disgaea Infinite''''' is a [[Visual Novel]] for the [[PSP]], modeled after a 2008 Japan-only game called ''Infinite Loop: Kojou Ga Miseta Yume''.<ref>(translation: ''The Fortress that Gives Dreams'')</ref>
It takes place sometime after the events of ''[[Disgaea: Hour of Darkness]]''. Overlord Laharl, while scheming to steal one of his vassal Etna's favorite snacks, becomes the victim of an assassination attempt. Etna and Flonne are initially accused of trying to kill him (given that they had actually tried to do so in the past), but are cleared of suspicion when Laharl turns his wrath on the Prinnies. Since none of them are willing to come forward and confess, Laharl threatens them with the [[Cool and Unusual Punishment|most heinous of punishments a Prinny could ever receive]]—a ''salary cut''!

{{tropelist}}
* [[Better Than a Bare Bulb]]{{context}}
* [[Black Comedy Rape]]: Mao's response to Flonne calling him a pervert and fleeing?
{{quote|I see, so this is that "no means yes" situation I've read about in the comic books!}}
* [[Bland-Name Product]]: The name of Netherworld Shopping Channel's mail-order branch? Amazombie.
* [[Body Surf]]{{context}}
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: Not only does [[The Narrator|TickTock]] refer to the Prinny as a game mechanic, but she even offers 'tutorials'.
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: The main element of the Best Ending. {{spoiler|Etna actually goes out of her way just to fix this.}}
Line 24:
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Although it's nothing new to the series, one scene has Laharl and Mao trying to '''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MujvApvCnbs out-laugh]''' each other.
** [[Lampshade Hanging|Hilariously referred to as]] "the Guffaw Battle" by TickTock.
* [[Event Flag]]{{context}}
* [[Fate Worse Than Death]]: The harshest of the [[108|108 punishments]] Laharl threatens to dish out is the dreaded "negative salary". Since Prinnies already work for peanuts, this effectively means that ''they'' will pay ''him'' for ''their'' labor.
* [[Funny Afro]]: Jennifer briefly grows one after Thursday's power-up unit malfunctions and she gets caught in the explosion.
Line 30:
* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: Subverted. Flonne wears her Angel Trainee costume from the first game here. Turns out that this is quite a plot point in one of the endings.
* [[Got Me Doing It]]: Whenever Prinny uses his mind control powers, the character he's possessing will end their sentence with "dude" (instead of the usual Prinny [[Verbal Tic]] of "dood"). Laharl quickly gets annoyed by this when other characters do it, and tells them to "stop talking like the damn Prinnies".
* [[Groundhog Day Loop]]{{context}}
* [[Imagine Spot]]: Happens very frequently.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: The database entry for "assassination": "We know, we know, [[Made of Iron|he's not really dead]]. We just have to go with it."
