History Trivia / SenranKagura

** Hanzo and Kiriya were considered for playable characters in ''Shinobi Versus'', as evidenced by [[DummiedOut their unused models being found]] in the files of the PC port.

** It's HilariousInHindsight now that said protagonist is a (guest/DLC) character in the latest Playstation game.
* The older concept art reveals that series was originally going to have flat-chested characters instead of big-breasted ones. The only character who stayed true to there original concept, and serves as a nod to it, is Mirai.
* Some of the New Wave shinobi are actually scrapped concepts of the main casts.
** Hisui is based on Asuka's scrapped sentai ninja concept.
** Muramasa is the combination of Hibari's old robot design and Haruka's early character design.
** Syuri is the early concept of a magical girl ninja, which, jarringly enough, was originally going to be ''Hikage''.

** Due to this, the series' is essentially split into two parts, the DS series which focuses on the main story, and the Vita and PC series which focuses on the fanservice.

** It's HilariousInHindsight now that said protagonist is a (guest/DLC) character in the latest Vita game.

** Takaki tweeted that he would personally look into the matter.

* ScrewedByTheLawyers: The ''Manga/IkkiTousen'' characters aren't available in the overseas version of ''Estival Versus'' due rights issues. There does exist retextured versions of the characters, but only so that oversea players can still battle against those in Japan using them and are not available for download.

* NoExportForYou: The ''Ikkitousen'' characters will not be available in the US version of ''Estival Versus'' due to rights issues.

* The three characters with biggest bust are, in order: Murasaki, Daidouji and Haruka.

** This dichotomy may have its sources in the videogame staff: While producer Takaki is the most enthusiastic one for promoting fanservice content in the franchise, author Yukinori Kitajima (who penned the original story) is known for his taste for stories who can sometimes border on the dark and edgy (most famously a visual novel called 428, and he collaborated on the scenario of VisualNovel/NineHoursNinePersonsNineDoors; obviously, Okamiden doesn't count).

* BleachedUnderpants: The Guren no Hibi manga is drawn by Aoi Nanabu (Circle name BLUEMAGE), an artist known for doing hentai doujin with very shapely characters (perfect fit for Senran Kagura. An interesting note is that one of his favorite characters is [[VideoGame/{{touhou}} Yuuka]], whom Hikage resembles considerably. It's believed a contract is stopping him from doing doujins of the series.

** All the girls in the series are referred to as 'Senrans', while the male characters are known as 'Menrans'.

* ActorAllusion: In the dub, at one point Katsuragi lets out an excited, "Yahoo!" Hmm... [[SoulEater What other ninja voiced by]] BrittneyKarbowski [[SoulEater said that...]]

** All the girls in the series are referred to as 'Senrans'. Yes. Even Murasame.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Katsuragi was originally supposed to be the main protagonist of the Hanzō girls, but Takaki thought that this would seem too familiar to [[IkkiTousen a certain female protagonist from another fanservice anime]]. So he decided to make Asuka the lead instead.
* WikiRule: [[http://senrankagura.wikia.com/wiki/Kagurapedia Has its own wiki]] that's still under construction.
