Funny Bits in Star Ocean 2 (288)

Claude: Weeee!! A toy sword! It's just what I wanted! Thanks Dr. Mirage!

Alright, this weapon looks a bit flashy, but it's no toy; I wouldn't exactly feel safe handing a planet destroyer like that to a kid (or to Claude, for that matter, but at least he does know how to use a sword). The sword you see here is certainly more powerful than most swords in the game: noteworthy exceptions are the Eternal Sphere and the Levantine. The Sacred Tear (probably called that because it can tear worlds apart in a mess of [un]holy destruction) has also the added bonus of halving the consumption of Claude's MP.

The Eternal Sphere is still much better than the Sacred Tear (or it wouldn't be a secret weapon), but it seems Claude needs this in order to defeat the Ten Wise Men... But Dr. Mirage said 'First', didn't she? Does that mean she's got more stuff to give us?
