* [[spoiler:[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Fllay Alster]]]] survives due to the fact the entire scenario objective dealing with [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Rau Le Crusset]] [[spoiler:transferring her and the N-Jammer Canceller plans to [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Azrael Murata]] is to prevent it from happening at all. Thus, she is safely ''far'' away from the "[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Battle of Jakin Due]]" when it occurs]]. Unfortunately, [[spoiler:even without the Cancellers]], the Earth Alliance instead develops ''Anti-Matter'' missiles to use on the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED PLANTs]]. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice job breaking it]], [[BadassArmy "Neue Wärter"]].

* ReferencedBy: One of the ''Manga/LuckyStar'' anime adaptation's numerous {{Shout Out}}s to ''Literature/FullMetalPanic'' is done in the style of this game, down to imitating both flavors of SuperMovePortraitAttack and coming very close to the game's actual animations for the Arbalest and Codarl-i.

* [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Mike Sounders the 13th]] appears earlier in the ''[=GaoGaiGar=]'' storyline, running off on his own and meeting [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Mamoru Amami]] (as well as [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Kaname Chidori]] and the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsW Ardygun family]]) at the Marine World Amusement Park.

** Since he doesn't have to go to school, [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsW Kazuma Ardygun]] opts out figuring it'd be better to train and become a pilot. To his horror, he winds up getting TrainingFromHell from [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Melissa Mao]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Lucrenzia Noin]]. This doesn't do him any favors regarding him [[RunningGag meeting girls, either]].

Names The Same is no longer a trope


* NamesTheSame:
** {{Lampshaded}}; after meeting the third "Gai" in the game, Kazuma muses on how everyone he meets named "Gai" is a different kind of badass. For the record, Guy Shishioh is "courageous", Gai Daigoji is "passionate" and Gai Murakumo is "cool". All three names are written differently.
** There are also two Hayatos: The pilot of [[Manga/GetterRobo Shin Getter-2]] and Yumi's (Tekkaman Hiver) partner from ''Anime/TekkamanBlade II''. Again, the names are written differently.

* The primary theme of ''W'' involves the "[[ArtisticLicenseAstronomy Big Crunch]]": after a time, the universe contracts on itself, then is reborn in another Big Bang. In the backstory of ''W'', various cultures sent parts of their civilization, such as [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Galeon]] and the Anime/GoLion (as well as the [[spoiler:''Valstork'', Valhawk and the Database]]) forward in time from previous generations.

* NoExportForYou: Rather typical for the franchise, though it's a little more surprising for ''W'' since every series in the game was licensed for distribution at the time of release, and a couple series (''[=GoLion=]'', ''Orgun'' and ''possibly Tekkaman Blade'') seem to have been included more to appeal to an American audience than any fan demand in Japan (which is particularly non-existent for ''[=GoLion=]''); idle speculation formented the idea that this was done to increase international appeal, but the game still never crossed the Pacific officially.

* The event in ''Anime/TekkamanBlade II'', the Black September of Prague, is omitted to fit the storyline. Because of this, Natasha's father and her estranged relations with him are basically AdaptedOut and instead of being arrested and executed to stop the event, Noal lives through the whole series. Dead's motivation is also changed, now he's angry at Blade for not being quick enough to eliminate the Radams that they managed to rob him his humanity, so he joined the Radam for vengeance against Blade.

*** A panel with Media Blasters claimed the license for Voltron was in order...until {{Creator/Nickelodeon}} optioned ''WesternAnimation/VoltronForce''. The optioning prevented games with the Voltron license from being released without Nick's approval, and the ensuing legal drama kept the game from being exported.
