Honestly I’m in the mood to replay Bravely default/second but the more I think about the more weird shit i remember that happens in that series. like just off the top of my head from my playthroughs from like 3 years ago things i remember include but are not limited to:
-your party finds a dude who’s diary ‘can tell the future’ and you just kinda roll with it
-there’s a whole plot point in the 3rd area that involves people hunting giant ass snakes and making perfume from it’s venom than when applied cause people to go insane
-you stop this mad plot by having one of your party members dress in a bikini and follow a dude to his secret lair
-there’s a magic flying child who lights people on fire for fun and no one kinda does anything about her
-there’s a lady who’s singing is so catchy it turns soldiers into unstoppable fighting machines
-the only reason you’re able to stop said lady is bc you get a megaphone and scream so loud they can’t hear her singing
-there’s a giant spooky castle that’s said to house a ancient vampire, the guy in question isn’t actually a vampire he just rolled with the aesthetic so people would leave him alone
-the world is put in damn-near-destruction bc one dude decided it was too difficult to tell your party your fairy is actually evil
-in order to get the true ending of the game you have to put the world in even more danger to save it
-you find an alien from the moon, but don’t honestly spend to much time dwelling on it, you got more important things to worry about
-like fighting a centaur, which was originally a statue brought to life by a witch
-people from the moon speak french
-they also all got killed by things literally called “Ba’als”
-your friend from the first game died and has been sleeping in an aquarium for 2 years, he’s ok now tho
-all those people in the first game you killed? they’re fiiiine
-no seriously, that samurai you killed is fine and just sails around the world with his new pet cat
-said samurai almost straight up dies bc his cat scratched him
-you can quadruple wield weapons by equipping one to your head and chest
-one of your party members gets sniped from a continent away
-one of your party members eats a piece of cake so good it straight up kills them
-you bring them back via splashing them with hot spring water
-you can do side quest where the first game’s bosses get in petty disagreements and instead of just telling off the one you disagree with you stab them until they stop
-one of the bosses from the first game is in a side quest where she’s kinda just drunk and screaming at a bank teller for it’s entirety
-remember that performer lady? yeah she shows up in a copyright battle with a pirate in this game
-said pirate sings, like straight up this is the boss theme
-you can turn off random encounters and the way the game explains it is one of your party members simply wills them away
-you can take time off the main story by having your party work in a plush making factory. really, you can make money by making dinosaur stuffed animals
-literally everything in this story is somehow Yew Geneolgia’s family’s fault
-that plague 20 years ago? his fault.
-the shit going on in this game? his brother’s fault
-your wife leave you? somehow i can guarantee it’s Yew Geneolgia’s fault
