** ''Fate'' fans, in particular ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', jokingly call Crown's ''Naked King'' power "AUO CAST OFF" due to her Kingliness and immense Golden power in that state making her resemble Gilgamesh, who has a similar power.

** As a result of multiple, persistant failures in her progression through the various stories in the main campaign and sidestories (from jobbing to Matis and Absolute, and getting [[spoiler:flung away like a rag doll by Red Hood and Rapi, to getting repeatedly beat like a drum by Crown and trampled by Trombe, before finally being put down by a ''non-combat Nikke'' using a weapon fashioned from ''her own tail'']]), Indivilia has become the biggest laughingstock of the Heretics in the fan community.

** Dazzling Pearl duo, Tia and Naga, quickly became the meta pair for raids due to just how incredibly they play off each other. Tia's main gimmick is that her Skill 1 grants a unique ATK buff of up to 32.11% to the team and lowers the cooldown of her burst while her cover is repaired. Naga, meanwhile, compliments this with her Skill 1 repairing cover after twelve normal attacks, meaning that the uptime of Tia's Skill 1 is basically permanent. Naga's Skill 2 increases damage dealt against upwards to 40.07% after five normal attacks while also healing two allies with the lowest HP percentages. Tia's Skill 2 also helps with survivability by Taunting all enemies while recovering her cover and (during burst) some of her health lost. Their Bursts are things get utterly ridiculous: Tia's Burst grants her a powerful shield and a weaker shield to the team ''but'' also causes the burst to ''re-enter Burst 1'', meaning that you can get another powerful buff, like Liter and Dorothey's Bursts, while greating increasing survivability. Said shield also synergizes with Naga's Burst, which grants Pierce to Naga while increasing the team's ATK by up to 16.18%, but when granted a shield during the Burst, is also increases the team's ATK by up to ''47.20%''. All of these buffs that the pair grant let's the team ''shred'' raid bosses while greatly boosting survivability.

* AndYouThoughtItWouldFail: During its pre-release advertising cycle, the game was effectively the laughingstock of the larger gacha game community, with its extremely unabashed SexSells advertising and obvious {{Fanservice}} pandering that caused many people to write it off as a shallow "waifu" game cash grab. Its launch period was also very rough, with several elements clearly unpolished and riddled with glaring flaws and bugs. However, players were quick to note that developer response to negative feedback was rapid, and once many of the kinks and major issues had been ironed out, fans discovered that beyond the rampant {{Fanservice}} was a legitimately great game with good gameplay, extremely solid writing and characterization, and incredible music. Although the game remains niche outside of Asia, it has effectively taken off in its home regions and especially Japan in particular, with the game managing to consistently go toe-to-to with some of the hottest gacha games on the market in terms of raw revenue alone within its first year, such as ''VideoGame/HonkaiStarRail'', ''VideoGame/BlueArchive'', and ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', and triggering a deluge of fan art and community content.

** The way the gacha works in general for players with a sufficiently bad combination of non-paying, unlucky and late starter. There's no true pity system on the regular banner, which is the only way, save for unlikely reruns, to obtain GameBreaker units like Red Hood, Modernia, Scarlet, Liter, Tia/Naga, Blanc/Noir and so on. Pulls on the regular banner award Silver Mileage tickets which allow you to buy whatever ''spare bodies'' of some of the characters that are currently available in the shop, which can only serve as dupes for the units you have already pulled and cannot substitute for pulling the first copy of the unit from the gacha proper. Pulling on the current rate-up banner awards you Gold Mileage tickets that you can only use to buy the character that is currently on the rate-up banner. Made worse by how sensitive late game content is to specific squads including specific units either due to high combat power deficits requiring nothing short of GameBreaker characters to clear or specific bosses having mechanics that can only be reliably countered by specific units. In the worst case scenario, not even [[BribingYourWayToVictory shelling out thousands of dollars]] might help you out of being Literless or (any other meta character that you don't have)-less!

** [[spoiler:Marian becomes this Marian can never have good things in life. [[spoiler:First she is corrupted before the story even begins. Not long after, she guides Commander, possibly the first human to be nice to her in ages, to MercyKill her. Was [[ReforgedIntoAMinion turned into a Heretic]], and not even a couple of minutes after [[ShesBack being cleansed of her Rapture cleansed]] from the corruption and in the wake of a climactic IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight, she gets put into a vegetative state, forcing Commander to approve her MindReformatDeath if he wants her to live at all. The new Marian, restored to Counters. Counters in the mental state of a newborn infant, doesn't get it much better. She's a complete blank slate who needs to re-learn even basic actions like ''speaking'', while everyone in the Ark starts squabbling over and trying to steal her from Counters to [[TheyWouldCutYouUp pick her apart apart]] for her unique technology. And after finally starting to bond with Counters again? She's sent to the Pilgrims on the surface to keep her from the Ark's reach...all while '''begging and crying''' for Counters to please, ''please'' let her stay with them because she likes living with them. Really, the poor girl needs a ''lot'' of hugs after all that.]]

** The announcement that Marian's new form after finishing the side story would be just a skin has been met with an overly negative response since alot of player thought it would have been much better if Modernia: Second Affection was a full new character, showing her growth. To make matter even worse, this is also going to be a Gacha Skin, locking it behind a paywall

** Can be taken more literally in that unless the player rerolls for an extremely powerful DPS unit at the beginning of the game, spends money or is lucky with their free pulls, the campaign progression will be so slow past a certain point that the player will be tempted to spoil themselves by watching story cutscenes elsewhere.

** Anachiro has been extraordinarily popular ever since her debut in ''Red Ash'' thanks to her extremely sexy design, unique powers, and canonical strength giving the Goddess Squad a run for their money. Fan art of her is a lot more common than usual for a non-playable character, and [[spoiler:the main story subtly implies that she may not be truly dead, giving some players hope that she may get a playable version in the future as Cinderella]].

Needless to say, there was little surprise when she won the poll for Favorite NPC during the 1.5th Anniversary event.
