** Nightburn Ackland is the dashing leader of the Golem Hunters Guild and human icon who's secretly in league with the Veruni. After losing his Veruni lover to a disease and learning that her race is doom to extinction unless drastic measures, Nightburn aligned with the Veruni as a false hero to his race, using his fame and charisma to lure other humans as part of the Veruni's many system to keep both sides in check. Running the entertainment and mine industry where he tricked many humans into slavery, Nightburn hid his facade brilliantly for years while secretly getting closer in solving the Veruni dilemma until encountered Dean. After being defeated by him and impress by his resolve, Nightburn switch sides, setting up Dean to succeed in what he failed, unite the two race, before seemingly sacrifing himself for him before re-emerging to face the Veruni radicals as a genuine hero.
** Duogrammaton "Duo" is a Veruni entertainment mogul who's floozy facade hides a cunning reporter fighting for the truth. In charge of Liela Belle and managing Nightburn's image, when he realize that Avril was the Ice Queen, he used his status to lure her group into a fake audition where he secretly studied her in the guise of just mere amusement.

The translators included private jokes which were completely absent from the original script, affecting the personality of characters, and the overall mood of the game. While some of these changes are funny ('''Go Goldorak, GO !!!''' upon the discovery of the golem), some are crossing the line, like a NPC who says in a dialogue the slogan of the actual French president, Nicolas Sarkozy ("Work more in order to earn more").

** For starters, Rebecca is similar in her character design and personality to Yoko. Plus, Dean is similar to an older Simon (they're even voiced by the same actor in the English release!)
*** Generally speaking, a lot of the voice actors who recorded for this game are the ones who regularly dub anime in California. But still...
** Next, the track "How Tiring Are Travels" from TTGL sounds strikingly similar to the Wild Arms Vanguard track "An Encounter in the Sunset". ''They're practically the same song''!!
**Both stories involve the command of a giant robot to save the world.
**There's another race that is at war with the human race throughout the story. In Gurren Lagann, it's the Spirals. In Vanguard, it's the Veruni.
**Speaking of spirals, Dean's bolt and Simon's drill are exactly the same motif.
**Towards the climax, there's a royal with a split personality who turns out to have the same lineage as the opposing race (Nia in GL, [[spoiler:Avril/The Ice Queen]] in WA5)

* Expy: Wild Arms 5 has so many resemblances to Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann that many fans of the latter accused the former of being a rip-off. The game is only vindicated by the fact that WA5 came out first in Japan (December 14, 2006) while Gurren Lagann came out afterwards (April 1, 2007).
