** It's bad enough Nintendo put an embargo on Inazuma Eleven's UK release (Never mind the fact it was LOCALISED THERE) such that the game was unavailable in the UK until the anime aired. But Creator/DisneyXD really didn't give a rats ass about the series, punting it on at 8:30am in the morning (albeit in the summer but still) and then pulling it off air 26 episodes in. If not for how they treated ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' when they were [[Creator/ToonDisney Jetix]], this would be considered one of the most egregious examples of screwing a show over by any UK Television company.

*RemadeForTheExport: The first DS game came out in Europe in 2011, wich was a very late release considering the third game was released since 2010 in japan. To make up for it, the game was remade from the ground up with the improved engine and graphics of Inazuma Eleven 2, and while the EU version loses the occasional secret match with professor Layton, it does have a couple new additions, most notably additional post-game matches. As a side effect, many data from Inazuma Eleven 2, including all techniques were left unused but fully usable.This version still didn't make it to America, that had to wait 2014 to get a digital-only 3DS port, that was closer to the original japanease game restores Professor Layton, but lost everything added to the european DS version.
**Still due to how late the series was released in europe, instead of getting Inazuma Eleven 3 on the DS like in japan, the games were moved to the 3DS in 2013 instead. The fact that the trilogy was already remade for the 3DS with Inazuma Eleven 1-2-3: Endo Mamoru's Legend helped, [[NoExportForYou but still no american release of either the second or the third games.]]

* ActingForTwo: Several characters are voiced by the same person as somebody else. Some of them end up interacting. Examples include:
** Creator/JunkoTakeuchi voices both Endou Mamoru and his great grandson from the future, Endou Kanon, who traveled to past to help his great grandfather. Naturally, they interact a lot in the movie.
** Creator/MamoruMiyano voices the Fubuki brothers, Shirou and Atsuya. This overlaps with TalkingToThemself when Shirou speaks to the SplitPersonality of his twin, but in the ''Ares'' timeline they get to speak to each other as different individuals, since Atsuya is alive. In fact, in many languages they're voiced by the same person.
** Creator/YuukiKaji plays both Kozoumaru and Fudou. Kozoumaru gets to speak to him in episode 10 of ''Ares'', when he calls him (and Sakuma) out on the fact that Teikoku uses dirty tricks to win the matches. He also plays Ichinose.
** Megumi Tano plays both Kabeyama and Sakuma. This would be more of a case of "talking at the same time", but they create a technique named Deep Jungle (together with Kazemaru)in the [[{{Crossover}} Inazuma Eleven vs Danball Senki]] movie. They don't interact too much otherwise, despite both being members of Inazuma Japan in season 3, being so far the only main characters voiced by the same person in the Japanese dub.
** Ayahi Takagaki is both Kurama and Aoyama.
** Creator/HiroyukiYoshino plays Kidou, Hayami, and Wondeba. They're [[TeenGenius wildly]] [[{{Dismotivation}} different]] [[LargeHam people]].
** The English dub of the anime has a few examples.
*** Richard Magarey voices best friends Kabeyama and Kurimatsu.
*** Michael Pizzuto voices Hiroto, Midorikawa and Kira Seijirou. Hiroto interacts with both of them, the former due to being his best friend and the latter his adoptive father.
*** David Lee [=McKinney=] voices a lot of characters, including Gouenji and Aphrodi, who get a fair share of interactions during the time [[GuestStarPartyMember Aphrodi joined Raimon in season 2]].



* IKnewIt:
** TheReveal that Ishido Shuuji was actually [[spoiler: Gouenji Shuuya]]. The same seiyuus, the fact that [[spoiler: Gouenji's]] character design for GO wasn't out yet, and even several similar details they have.
** Lee Kobun being the same person as Mutekigahara Fujimaru is one for most people during ''Orion''. [[PlayedWith However]], the fact that Fujimaru is actually [[spoiler:one of China's representatives and China's very own captain, plus the fact that China's team are also personally coached by Zhao Jin Yun before, caught many by surprise]].
** Many fans called for Atsuya being chosen as one of the new members of Inazuma Japan in ''Orion''.

** A ''crazy'' example for the Italian dub. In the anime, which was released one year before the games, Gouenji's voice actor is changed somewhere around the beginning af the arc based on the second game's plot. In the first game, Gouenji has the second anime voice... which is replaced in the subsequent chapters with his first anime voice.

In the videogames, however, the opposite happened: Graziano voiced him in the subsequent chapters with his first game while Garbolino took the role from the second onwards (and reprised the role in the anime voice.too from ''Go'' onwards).

* RelationshipVoiceActor: Some of the voice actors in the Japanese dub once work together in a different series.
** One example is that some voice actors worked together in Franchise/CodeGeass among the cast in ''Ares''. [[Creator/JunFukuyama Nosaka]] is an exiled prince starting a rebellion against his former home under the alias, Zero. With a best friend and rival in [[Creator/TakahiroSakurai Mansaku/Mizukamiya]], [[Creator/TakahiroMizushima Tatsuya]] is Nosaka's little brother in a loose sense, and [[Creator/FumikoOrikasa Aki]] is Nosaka's classmate who is a good friend of his but is left out of the loop about his actions as Zero.

** Apparently, the reason why the characters have English names in Europe (despite they explicitly say they're Japanese) is because the European publisher of the anime wanted to repeat the (insane) success that ''Manga/CaptainTsubasa'' got during the early 90s. Guess how were the characters of that series named in Europe.
