History YMMV / SenkoNoRonde

* [[HePannedItNowHeSucks They Panned It, Now They Suck]]: Every major video game critic in the U.S. stem from this, given that some of the reviewers may not be even fans of the shoot 'em up genre to begin with.

* EvilIsSexy: While Lili's not inherently evil in any way, whenever her [[CuteAndPsycho psycho]] [[SplitPersonality switch]] turns on, she goes from being [[{{Moe}} meek]] to someone who's quite seductive.

* BrokenBase: The art change in ''Senko no Ronde 2'' has fans torn in three ways: swearing off buying the game, disliking it but still planning on getting the game (and fearing the backlash), and a few like it. Mitigated that the story mode from DUO has been ported wholesale, complete with the character design.

* SpiritualAdaptation: ''Senko no Ronde'' is possibly the closest thing to a ''Toward the Terra'' game that nobody has never played. Alternatively, it's ''Virtual-ON'' [-IN TWO DIMENSIONS!-]

* HilariousInHindsight: ''Senko no Ronde'' was often dubbed as "''VideoGame/VirtualOn'' in 2D" by fans of these games. Fast-forward to late 2017, G.rev revealed on an issue of Famitsu a {{crossover}} DLC featuring Temjin from Sega's ''Virtual-ON'' as a playable character (along with the titular Assault Suit from NCS's ''VideoGame/AssaultSuitsValken'').

* NeedsMoreLove: With all the effort poured into ''Senko no Ronde'''s development -- a storyline and artstyle heavily influenced by ''Manga/TowardTheTerra'', mechnical design of the artist behind the ''VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}}'' series (for Episodes ''I'' and ''II''), musical composition of a ex-ZUNTATA member, and combining [[FightingGame two]] [[ShootEmUp genres]] no one would expect to be possible -- only to receive harsh criticism in the U.S. for the {{Xbox 360}} version. It is perhaps one of most the unappreciated Xbox 360 titles to be released outside of Japan.
** The fact it was released on a system whose fanbase majority is naturally unappreciative of the shoot 'em ups genre; though this was before the shoot 'em up explosion on the Xbox 360 (Creator/{{CAVE}} with their various classics on XBLA and region-free imports).

* ThatOneAchievement: '''''All''''' of the online-specific Achievements in Xbox 360. How is this a problem, you may ask. There's little-to-no players playing online matches anymore, that's how!
