** Like it was seen [[LightNovel/HighSchoolDxD in]] [[LightNovel/ChivalryOfAFailedKnight other]] [[LightNovel/ReZero roles]] he has performed in his career, Creator/YoshitsuguMatsuoka voices an unhinged, manipulative coward like [[MadArtist Yona]] instead of voicing a character more in the lines of his usual [[TheHero heroic]] roles.

* PropRecycling: The streets are often filled with classic European CGI cars (particularly Italian ones) rather unfitting for the Japanese setting, likely due to David Production reusing assets made for the animated adaptation of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind''.

* RoleReprisal: Both Creator/ToruOkawa and Creator/EmiriKatou reprise their roles as Spirit and Blair (respectively) from ''Manga/SoulEater'' in their small cameo in the 18th episode of the second season.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Creator/{{Toonami}}'s airing of the series went smoothly in Season 1, but for Season 2's premiere, its original projected premiere date being was delayed with no announcement. When Season 2 was finally set to aired, Toonami gave it zero promotion until ''the night of its premiere''. To make the matter more confusing, Season 1 was airing in reruns weeks before to hype up Season 2's premiere, which possibly confused fans into thinking the new episodes were reruns.

** Sho Kusakabe is voiced by a woman, Creator/MaayaSakamoto. In English dub, this is averted due to Sho is voiced by Creator/JustinBriner.
** Yu, a young boy and Vulcan's apprentice, is voiced in the English dub by Creator/KristenMcGuire and he was given an almost child-like voice. It's averted in the Japanese version, where he's voiced by Shoya Chiba in Japanese version and his voice is like a teenager.

* DistancedFromCurrentEvents: Due to the series' premise about firefighting, the anime's broadcast of Episode 3 was [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2019-07-19/fire-force-anime-halts-friday-planned-airing-streaming-of-3rd-episode/.149134 halted]] after the arson attack at Kyoto Animation's Studio 1 building. It only lasted a week, but [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2019-07-26/fire-force-3rd-episode-modified-after-kyoto-animation-fire/.149362 starting with episode 4, the color for the fire was changed.]] It still counted as this when episode 3 did have a pretty big building on fire that the heroes needed to escape.

** Creator/RieKugimiya is better known for playing {{Tsundere}} characters with a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold with a heart of gold]]. Here, she's casted for Haumea, who is not [[AxCrazy like]] [[{{Jerkass}} that]] [[PsychopathicManchild at]] [[PsychoElectro all]].
** Ritsu is not usually the type of character Creator/RumiOokubo gets casted for, being a calm, villanous character with blue hair instead of a [[RoseHairedSweetie pink haired sweet girl]]. For an added point of irony, Ritsu takes care of an actual pink haired girl (though far from the kind ones Ookubo normally voices).
* PromotedFanboy: In her interview in the official website of the anime, Creator/RumiOokubo admitted she was a reader of the manga before being casted as Ritsu for the second season of the anime, also expressing her happiness of getting a role in the series.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Creator/{{Toonami}}'s airing of the show went smoothly in Season 1, but for Season 2's premiere, start by it's original projected premiere date (October 24th. It premiered on November 7th.) being delayed with no announcement, then, when the show is about to premiere, give it ''zero'' promotion and not even so much ''make a commercial to tell people when it was on''. Even on social media, Season 2's premiere was not acknowledged until '''the night of it's premiere'''! To make the matter more confusing, Season 1 was airing in reruns weeks before to hype up S2's premiere, which possibly confused people into thinking the new episodes were reruns. The only two things that save it are: 1) The show's dub can be watched on streaming services before Toonami's airing, and 2) It has a decent time slot (1:00 a.m.).
