* LyingCreator: The first game's UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} page contains a disclaimer that all characters that appear in the game are at least 18 years old. Early in the game, Al flat-out states that she is 15 years old. Idea Factory International must have banked on there being enough PlausibleDeniability from the reveal that [[spoiler:the "NPC" party members are real people who have had their personalities overwritten]] to cover themselves, but the game never even attempts to refute Al's claim and in fact reinforces it with the reveal that [[spoiler:Al's "real" world counterpart was on vacation from a boarding school when she was kidnapped]].
* NoExportForYou: The Japanese version contained a pre-order bonus in the form of "End Quest", a short RPG Maker game. It is focused on [[spoiler:Iris, and chronicles how she meets the full game's party and modifies their respective personalities]].

* ActingForTwo: The large cast in ''Death end re;Quest 2'' requires a few actresses to act for two or even three characters:
** In Japanese: Hitomi Isaka (Molly and Sarah) and Reiko Abe (Pick and Anne).
** In English: Creator/XantheHuynh (Rin and Victorie), Dorah Fine (Bishop and Makoto), Creator/CheramiLeigh (Sumika and Chitsuba), and Creator/LizzieFreeman (Elizabeth, Pick, and Charlie).



* NoExportForYou: The Japanese version contained a pre-order bonus in the form of "End Quest", a short RPG Maker game. It is focused on [[spoiler:Iris, and chronicles how she meets the full game's party and modifies their respective personalities]].
* OrphanedReference: In the English version striking windows or cars in the dorm area will initially bring up a tutorial about destroying objects and how people might react negatively to it, and nothing else will come of it no matter how much you try to break things. This is because the lines from the living party members responding to the destruction were omitted entirely in the localization process, and even setting the audio to Japanese will not cause these lines to play.
* TheOtherDarrin:
** Arata and Celica had their actors changed between the two games. Creator/JunyaEnoki replacing Tatsuya Tokutake, and Chiyo Tomaru replacing Ayaka Imamura due to the original voices retiring.
** Arata was also recast in the English version, with Creator/AlejandroSaab replacing Creator/ChrisNiosi; this is likely due to the latter's accusations of abuse and [=NDA=] violations that infamously cost him the lead role in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses''.
* RecycledScript: ''Death end re;Quest 2'' draws heavily from Makoto Kedouin's manga ''Manga/DollsFall''. Interestingly, the maids in ''Dolls Fall'' share their names with many of the girls in ''Death end re;Quest 2''.
* WriteWhoYouKnow: Makoto Kedouin [[https://www.iffysonlinestore.com/blog/creator-spotlight-an-interview-with-makoto-kedouin-the-scenario-writer-of-the-death-end-request-series/ confirmed in an interview with IFI]] that Kajita Rosso is based on a friend, both physically and in his way of speaking, while the personality was suggested by the friend.
