* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Perhaps to balance out the emphasis the plot places on British and American interference harming Japan several British and American characters are featured who are friendly and likable, looking to actually help the country without being condescending. One of them, the American William Bradley, even becomes one of Ryoma's masters, teaching him gunplay.

* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Perhaps to balance out the emphasis the plot places on British and American interference harming Japan several British and American characters are featured who are friendly and likable, looking to actually help the country without being condescending. These characters also tend to criticise the attitudes held by their more colonially minded countrymen. One of them, the American William Bradley, even becomes one of Ryoma's masters, teaching him gunplay.

** In the ''Kiwami'' remake, Ryoma can now use Battle Trooper Cards outside of the Battle Dungeons after he's introduced to them. To balance this out, most of the main cast and boss fights will also demonstrate similar supernatural abilities after they take enough damage and TurnRed. Notably, [[TheRival Okada]] doesn't start using any mystical powers until [[RecurringBoss the third time you fight him.]]
