The same trope also applies to Creator/FayeMata, who is known for getting cast as [[GenkiGirl Genki Girls]] like [[Anime/LoveLive Rin Hoshizora]] and [[Literature/FateApocrypha Astolfo]] ([[Main/DudeLooksLikeALady though his gender is dubious, to say the least]]).

* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: The [[WackyWaysideTribe various Crimson Demons]] introduced in the fifth volume of the light novels (where the party visits Megumin's hometown) proved to be so popular with Japanese fans that a spinoff novel series called ''God's Explosion On This Wonderful World!'', which chronicles Megumin and Yunyun's childhoods and goes into detail about several {{Noodle Incident}}s was written. However, the first volume of the spinoff series reached American shores at the same time as that of the main novels thanks to the light novel boom of 2015, resulting in the Crimson Demons officially being introduced to America before the official translation of the light novel they made their actual debut in or the theatrical adaptation of said novel were officially released.
