* BrokenBase: One surfaced regarding the art style as soon as the game was demo'd at E3. Some like it because they like American comicbooks (which the art style was based on), others hate it because they thought it would be similar to ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' based on the comparisons to its gameplay and due to the developers' existing library of games. More still hate it because it isn't using an anime/manga-inspired art style like both ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'' and ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' are known for.

* EarWorm: The vocal theme.
* NarmCharm: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QED7UVc7WV4 The vocal theme]] is already being called the next [[VideoGame/DonkeyKong64 DK Rap]]. Most likely intentional, since this game intends to imitate the style of old American comic books.

* HateDumb: Aside from the art style, the game was bashed for not being the ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask'' remake or ''VideoGame/{{MOTHER 3}}'' re-release that people were wishing for. Note that all these complaints started up ''before'' gameplay was even shown.
** To further emphasize how some people are demonstrating this trope, a common response in regards to people complaining about this game '''not''' being a ''Majora's Mask'' remake is "and THIS is why we barely ever get new [=IPs=], because people only seem to want remakes of 10+ year old games, and they bitch and moan anytime a promising new IP is revealed instead of a remake..."
