1* CreatorsOddball: It can be odd to look at the covers of the first two games and see that ''Creator/MidwayGames'', of all companies, published them abroad, especially considering their strong localization work.
2* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The first game went out of print fairly quickly, and had a relatively low print run to begin with. This led fans to have to resort to scouring eBay to obtain a copy. The sequel seemed doomed to the same fate, but the trope was averted when the publisher recognized it had a cult hit on its hands and re-released both titles.
3* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
4** As Matsuzo Machida revealed in interviews, ''From the New World'' is not a true sequel, but rather a GaidenGame. Actual ''Shadow Hearts III'' started development ''three different times'', but ended up being cancelled for good. It would have been a prequel starring Jinpachiro Hyuga and Kiheita Inugami, Yuri's and Kurando's fathers.
5** Likewise, Miyako Kato [[https://twitter.com/miyakoworks/status/1072433021414969344 drew a design]] for the human form of Black Bat, or rather Valentine siblings' grandfather. Considering how Joachim and Hilda had {{Early Bird Cameo}}s in games prior to their proper introductions, he may have been a party member in ''[=SHIII=]''.
