Added DiffLines:

* CreatorDrivenSuccessor: There are major similarities between ''Star Ocean'' and the ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'' in gameplay and design: real time battles with combat skills that burn MP, item creation, food-based healing items that heal in percentages, Private Actions / Skits, RelationshipValues leading to MultipleEndings, and so on. This is because ''Star Ocean'' was created by tri-Ace, a company whose founding members are best described as "Basically everyone who designed ''VideoGame/TalesOfPhantasia'' at Namco."

* WordOfGod: It seems from an old interview, Gotanda admitted to being a fan of [[Creator/HirokiTochi Hiroki Touchi]] (who first voiced Cyuss Warren in the first installment), to the point that in all four of the initial installments, Touchi was cast as at least one party member in each one save for the fifth game (he even [[RoleReprisal reprised]] a party member in both the first and second games' remakes).

** The English dub of ''Anamnesis'' has this in ''[[UpToEleven spades]]'' for all returning characters from previous games, mainly due to using a UK-based talent pool of actors, as opposed to an LA-based one.

Anamnesis has a page


* PlayingAgainstType: The RobotBuddy mascot in ''Anamnesis'', Coro, is voiced by Creator/RyuseiNakao. Yep, ''[[Franchise/DragonBall Frieza]]'' is your assistant! However, this is downplayed a bit since this is an area that Nakao is experienced with, just not his most prominent one. Just try to imagine you're being assisted by a robotic [[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures Buster Bunny]].

Added DiffLines:

* TheOtherDarrin: Every once in a while, between both the English and Japanese versions. For example, between the original, remake, and anime adaptation of ''[[VideoGame/StarOceanTheSecondStory Second Story]]'', there have been three completely different casts for the characters, in both English ''and'' Japanese!
