* PlayingAgainstType: Remember that energetic fashion show presenter from "Nikushimi wo Hanataba ni Kaete"? That [[OneSceneWonder memorable cameo]] who spouts GratuitousEnglish and GratuitousItalian under one breath? The dude is voiced by Sascha. Who? Well, he's appeared in previous albums before, you know. You can easily recognize him by his [[GutturalGrowler creepy growl]] during narrations. Yeah. He's the German narrator.

* HeyItsThatVoice:
** Hiver Laurant is voiced by [[Creator/HikaruMidorikawa Akihiko]] [[ShinMegamiTenseiPersona3 Sanada]] when speaking.
** From ''Roman'' onwards, Michéle Malebranche is voiced by [[Creator/RikaFukami Sailor Venus]]. She also voices the Queen of Arcadia.
** [[Creator/YukariTamura Rika Furude]] and [[Creator/MamikoNoto Enma Ai]] becomes two wandering dolls searching for the meaning of life and death, respectively. Fitting.
** A silver-haired [[Creator/NobuoTobita Vayne Carudas Solidor]] lost his arm in a battle and got degraded into a wife-beating drunk.
** [[Creator/NorioWakamoto Charles of Britannia]] becomes a drunken wastrel in ''Roman''...but he gets better quickly and goes on to become a ruthless general in ''Moira'' and [[spoiler: the King of the world in ''Nein'']].
** Young Elef is [[{{Yukana}} C.C.]]
** [[Creator/SakiFujita Ymir]] drops all pretenses of heroism here and becomes a creepy murderous doll.
** In ''Märchen'', [[Creator/YuuichiNakamura Kouen]] [[MagiLabyrinthOfMagic Ren]] inherits the position of Prince-Elector and becomes a more [[TheCaligula tyrannical]] kind of jerk.
*** And [[Creator/AkioOhtsuka Rider]] turns out to be ''the Bluebeard himself'' [[FateZero all along]]!
*** Worse yet, [[Creator/MiyukiSawashiro Celty Sturluson]] apparently got her head back and becomes his last, [[DamselInDistress helpless,]] wife.
** In ''Nein'', [[Creator/YuukiKaji Eren Yeager]] is the world's greatest archer, Orion! [[spoiler: Too bad [[Creator/NorioWakamoto The Emperor]] impaled him to death.]] He's better off being Noël's friend in the modern world, though.
** [[Creator/AsukaTanii Kiri Komori]] voices our adorable albino boy in ''Ido e Itaru Mori e Itaru Ido''.
** From the musical side of things:
*** Etoile's mother, [[spoiler: Pleut]], and the Good Fairy Aprikose, is voiced by Azumi Inoue, the singer of MyNeighborTotoro's theme songs.

Same reason as before, Minami Kuribayashi reprised her role as Misia. Tomoyo Kurosawa wasn't involved with Nein (feel free to edit it back in if I'm mistaken)


** Kurosawa Tomoyo took Misia's role in Nein instead of her original actor as an adult, Kuribayashi Minami.

Minami Kuribayasi reprises her role as Misia in Nein. I don't believe Tomoyo Kurosawa played a part in the Nein concerts either (feel free to edit this back in if she did)


* CastingGag: Kurosawa Tomoyo took the role of an adult Misia in Nein. She played a younger Misia during Moira's live.

* CutSong: According to Revo, Moira was originally going to be long enough two fill up two [=CDs=] entirely, but it had to be pruned down for undisclosed reasons. Even after that, ten more minutes worth of already recorded music had to be cut.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: An interview reveals that Revo plans to release Rinne before Nein, which is coined as the 9th Horizon and also for Sound Horizon's tenth anniversary. But with Revo himself being busy with Linked Horizon projects, he ended up dropping on working on Rinne for the time being. He says that if he isn't focused on Linked Horizon projects, Rinne will be released as originally planned.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic: What ''is'' Sound Horizon without their symbolisms? Flowers and their associations to womanhood and the fragility of life, the cycle of life and death, the windmill in ''Roman'', the threads of Fate, the change of the seasons, a well and its associations with impulsive desires... Plus the characters' names, and their roles, and practically everything about this band is very ripe for interpretations.

* FanCommunityNickname: Fans of Sound Horizon refer to themselves as "Laurants" or "citizens". Their king is [[CreatorWorship Revo himself]].


Added DiffLines:

* WordOfDante: There is ''no'' such thing as WordOfGod in the Sound Horizon universe. Revo purposefully makes his stories speculative in nature and never gave any 'official' answers in return [[ViewersAreGeniuses because he wants to see his fans' various interpretations for it.]] As such, if not the manga, fans often rely on the most popular theory for explanation.

* ActingForTwo: A common occurence, but this happens most prominently in the First Era [[labelnote:note]] the doujin period plus ''Elysion'', where Aramary dominates the vocals and narrations[[/labelnote]], due to cast limitations.
* FakeNationality: By necessity, usually - Most of the albums are set outside of East Asia, and there's not exactly a surplus of French/ancient Greek/Middle-Eastern/German/etc. singers working in Japan that can sing fluently in Japanese.

* TheOtherDarrin: Aramary's absence leaves a lot of empty roles to be filled, so they are replaced by new singers and voice actresses:
** As mentioned above, Michéle Malebranche's role has been filled by Rika Fukami since ''Roman''.
** [[spoiler: Chronica appears in ''Nein'', and she is re-dubbed by Miyuki Sawashiro.]]
