Princess Crown is basically a Vanillaware game from before Vanillaware was a thing. It's gorgeous and the combat is hack and slash with rpg elements.

Linda Cube is closer to a standard JRPG, but it mixes up the formula in a lot of ways. There's not much out there like it really.
>planet of Neo-Kenya going to be destroyed by a giant meteor in 8 years
>giant space ark appears one day from an unkown god calling himself Anubis
>main character Ken and his slightly crazy tomboy gf have to run around collecting one male and female of each animal on the planet and put them in the ark before blasting off into space on it
>animals have same names as Earth animals but look like bad acid trip versions
>seasons and years pass in-game, changing what animals and people appear in different places
>uploading animals into the ark buffs Ken and Linda, unlocks special abilities
>collected animals can also be turned into weapons, armor, and food
>four-directional combat
>if you hit an animal too hard you will splatter them instead of collecting them
>half your party are dogs that will act on their own unless you use a skill that gives them a command

It's also filled with ridiculous NPC conversations and dramatic events that keep hitting the main characters over three different scenarios. It may not be the best looking game for its time, but it's definitely worth checking out.
