History Trivia / TheWorldGodOnlyKnows

** Ayumi's position in the [=2B Pencils=] is that of the second guitarist. [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Her voice actress's]] StarMakingRole was Azusa Nakano from ''Manga/KOn'', also the second guitarist of her band Hokago Tea Time (of which the [=2B Pencils=] were [[{{Expy}}probably based on]]).

* PlayingAgainstType: For the ''Goddesses Arc'' english dub, Creator/JessicaCalvello, an actress who's usually known to play {{Genki Girl}} roles, now lends her voice to [[{{Tsundere}} Haqua.]]

* StarMakingRole: Creator/NaoTouyama makes her voice-acting debut here as [[IdolSinger Kanon]]. Though with her [[Manga/KiniroMosaic later]] [[Manga/{{Nisekoi}} succeeding]] [[VideoGame/KantaiCollection roles]], the one here might also qualify as RetroactiveRecognition.

** The voices of Keima and [[Creator/KanaHanazawa Shiori Shiomiya]] also voice Jun Mikuriya and Zange[=/=]Hakua Suzushiro respectively from ''Manga/{{Kannagi}}''.

** With Creator/BrittneyKarbowski reprising her role as Kanon, Creator/CynthiaMartinez was then called in to voice Chihiro. Which apparently makes the latter the only character in this series so far to be darrin'd ''twice'' by [[Creator/SentaiFilmworks the same studio.]][[labelnote:explanation]]Serena Varghese lent her voice to Chihiro's early appearances in Season 1. During Season 2, due to Varghese moving to Los Angeles where she still lives, Karbowski was called in to the said role (which is a coincidence since Kanon wasn't scheduled to reappear in the story until the ''Four Girls and an Idol [=OVA=]''), while Martinez voiced Jun Nagase for the same season.[[/labelnote]]

* RelationshipVoiceActor:
** It is quite surprising that some VA's here (both Japanese and English VA's at that) have also voiced characters from ''LightNovel/InfiniteStratos'':
*** [[Creator/LuciChristian Elsea]] and [[Creator/MegumiToyoguchi Nora]] become Ichika's elder sister / homeroom teacher / dorm supervisor.
*** [[Creator/HilaryHaag Mio and Shiori's English VA]] voiced Rin.
*** [[Creator/BrittneyKarbowski Kanon's VA]] voiced Cecilia.
*** [[Creator/CynthiaMartinez Jun]] was previously Chifuyu's assistant homeroom teacher, aside from being an ex-cadet representative.
*** [[Creator/ChrisAyres Kodama]] becomes Ran's elder brother.
** Did you know that the voices of [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima Katsuragi]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Kusonoki Kasuga]] are also the voices of two of the Sanbagarasu (Crow Trio) SiblingTeam, [[Creator/HiroShimono Kuromaru]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Sasami]] respectively, from ''Manga/NuraRiseOfTheYokaiClan''.
** The voices of Keima and [[Creator/KanaHanazawa Shiori Shiomiya]] also voice Jun Mikuriya and Zange[=/=]Hakua Suzushiro respectively from ''Manga/{{Kannagi}}''.
*** [[spoiler: A bit of HilariousInHindsight that Kana Hanazawa voiced girls that have goddesses in them.]]
*** [[Creator/HarukaTomatsu Lune's]] voice actress also played Nagi.
** The voices of [[Creator/KanaeIto Elsea]], [[Creator/KanaAsumi Chihiro Kosaka]], [[Creator/AkiToyosaki Jun Nagase]], and [[Creator/RyokaYuzuki Mari Katsuragi]] also voice [[Creator/KanaeIto Amu Hinamori and Dia]], [[Creator/KanaAsumi Ran]], [[Creator/AkiToyosaki Su]], [[Creator/RyokaYuzuki Temari, Nana, and Hotaru]] from ''Manga/ShugoChara''.
** The voices of [[Creator/SaoriHayami Haqua]], [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Ayumi Takahara]] and Chihiro also voice Yuno Arashiko, Mio Isurugi, and Shizuka Sado respectively from the ''LightNovel/{{MM}}'' anime.
** The voices of Elsea, Haqua, and Kusonoki also voice Mihoshi Akeno, Sayo Yarai, and Fumie Kotozuka respectively from ''Manga/SoraNoManimani''.
** The voices of Haqua and Jun also voice Ikaros and Chaos respectively from ''Manga/HeavensLostProperty''.
*** So, Saori Hayami has gone from voicing a SugarAndIcePersonality busty Angeloid wielding a {{BFG}} to a {{tsundere}} [[ACupAngst size-conscious]] New Devil wielding a SinisterScythe.
** The voices of Keima and [[Creator/{{Kujira}} Dokurou Skull]] also voice Ikuto Tohoin and Koto (a.k.a. Obaba) respectively from ''Manga/NagasareteAirantou''.
** This series marked the return of the Creator/ChrisPatton[=/=]Creator/LuciChristian combo in the dub (playing Keima and Elsie respectively) after Chris had been away from voice acting for a few years.
** And now with the introduction of [[Creator/HarukaTomatsu Lune]] in Season 3, this trope now applies to her seiyuu, [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima's]] and [[Creator/MegumiToyoguchi Nora's]] regarding their previous roles in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn'', being the voices of [[{{Ojou}} Micott Barsch]], [[{{Otaku}} Takuya Irei]] and [[MissionControl Mihiro Oiwaken]], respectively.
** And since we're on the topic of ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'', we have Elsea, Mari, Haqua, Shiori, Kusonoki, Yui and Ryou, appearing in ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE'' as (in exact order) [[IllGirl Lu Anon]], [[DarkActionGirl Reina Spriggan]], [[MysteriousWaif Yurin L'Ciel]], [[BridgeBunny Romary Stone]], [[PluckyGirl Arisa Gunhale]], and ''BOTH generations'' of [[EnfanteTerrible Desil]] [[EvilRedhead Galette]].
** Meanwhile, [[Creator/AoiYuuki Mio's]] and [[Creator/SaoriHayami Haqua's]] respective seiyuus meet up again in ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'', as [[IdolSinger Gunpla Idol Kirara]] and [[EmotionlessGirl Aila Jyrkiäinen]] respectively; the latter even brought some of Haqua's {{Tsundere}} tendencies.
** [[Creator/TakumaTerashima Ryou's]] and [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Ayumi's]] seiyuus voice the homosexuals in ''LightNovel/BakaAndTestSummonTheBeasts.'' Along with [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima]] turning from the insanely smart God of Conquest into [[IdiotHero the biggest idiot in school.]]

** A slight one in the English Dub: [[Creator/BrittneyKarbowski Kanon]]'s stun guns should remind you of [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex a certain]] [[LightNovel/ACertainScientificRailgun Electric Princess]].

*** So, Saori Hayami has gone from voicing a {{kuudere}} busty Angeloid wielding a {{BFG}} to a {{tsundere}} [[ACupAngst size-conscious]] New Devil wielding a SinisterScythe.

** Did you know that the voices of [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima Katsuragi]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Kusonoki Kasuga]] are also the voices of two of the Sanbagarasu (Crow Trio) SiblingTeam, [[Creator/HiroShimono Kuromaru]] and [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu Sasami]] respectively, from ''Manga/NurarihyonNoMago''.

* IKnewIt: [[spoiler: Ayumi being Mercury's host. For the GenreSavvy, the author pushing Chihiro only made it more likely.]]

** Let's not forget that [[Creator/TakumaTerashima Ryou's]] and [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu Ayumi's]] seiyuus voice the homosexuals in ''LightNovel/BakaAndTestSummonTheBeasts.'' Along with [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima]] turning from the insanely smart God of Conquest into [[IdiotHero the biggest idiot in school.]]

* StarMakingRole: Creator/NaoTouyama makes her voice-acting debut here as [[IdolSinger Kanon]]. Though with her [[Manga/Kinmoza later]] [[Manga/{{Nisekoi}} succeeding]] [[VideoGame/KantaiCollection roles]], the one here might also qualify as RetroactiveRecognition.

* StarMakingRole: Newcomer Creator/NaoTouyama as [[IdolSinger Kanon]].

** With Creator/BrittneyKarbowski reprising her role as Kanon, Creator/CynthiaMartinez was then called in to voice Chihiro. Which apparently makes the latter the only character in this series so far to be darrin'd ''twice'' by [[Creator/SentaiFilmworks the same studio.]][[labelnote:explanation]]Serena Varghese lent her voice to Chihiro's early appearances in Season 1. During Season 2, due to Varghese living to Los Angeles now, Karbowski was called in to the said role (which is a coincidence since Kanon wasn't scheduled to reappear in the story until the ''Four Girls and an Idol [=OVA=]''), while Martinez voiced Jun Nagase for the same season.[[/labelnote]]

* JustForFun/XMeetsY: ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'' meets ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}''.

* HeyItsThatVoice:
** [[Creator/HiroShimono Keima]] may have previously fangasmed [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn over mobile suits...]] Or maybe have been the subject of [[LightNovel/BakaAndTestSummonTheBeasts various comic abuse]] outside of his galge obsession...
*** Alternatively, [[Anime/RahXephon Ayato Kamina]] is now The God of Conquest, [[Creator/ChrisPatton even in the English Dub.]]
** [[Creator/KanaeIto Elsie]] [[LightNovel/BokuWaTomodachiGaSukunai was actually smarter, bustier and into galge.]]
** There's just no way that [[Creator/AyanaTaketatsu my athletic classmate/first capture target]] [[LightNovel/{{Oreimo}} can be this cute!]] ([[Manga/KOn Nyaa~n!]])
** [[Creator/KanaHanazawa Shiori]] cosplayed as a [[{{Oreimo}} goth lolita]] [[LightNovel/BokuWaTomodachiGaSukunai twice]], became a [[Manga/KotouraSan blue haired ESP obsessed club president]], and a [[Manga/SketDance typical tsundere]].
** In addition, it seems [[Creator/KanaAsumi Chihiro]] previously worked for [[Creator/AkiToyosaki Jun]] [[Manga/MaidSama at the Maid Latte Cafe.]] Before that, she was a GenkiGirl with CuteLittleFangs, who was a part of one of the most {{Badass Crew}}s [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann to ever exist in Anime.]]
*** She also was an [[AnimeChineseGirl Anime Chinese]] {{Action Girl}} from ''[[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima another]]'' {{Badass Crew}}.

** [[Creator/AtsukoTanaka Nikaido-sensei]] was [[Franchise/GhostInTheShell a badass female cyborg cop.]]

** [[Creator/AoiYuuki Mio]] was previously a [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica magical girl with pink hair]], who then retired to become an [[Anime/GundamBuildFighters idol singer-slash-build fighter]].
** By the way, [[AiNonaka Konoka]] [[MahouSenseiNegima Konoe]] braided her hair and gained a pair of glasses, as she became head of the Library Committee, [[MonicaRial even in the English Dub.]]
** Seems [[TakumaTerashima Ryou]]'s DumbBlonde behavior is just a front. He could be an AxCrazy [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE Jerkass Vagan Pilot.]]
*** Still, don't expect him to shout '''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration OVERKAISEERRR! SWOOOOOOOORD!!!!!]]''' that often...
** And surprisingly, [[Creator/SakuraTange Youkkun]] was [[Manga/CardcaptorSakura a magical girl in search of cards...]]
** [[Creator/RyuseiNakao Kodama]] is secretly [[{{Manga/Bleach}} a mad scientist shinigami.]]
** [[Creator/TomokazuSeki The pitcher from Season 2 Episode 3]] is so HotBlooded, that it is rumored that [[FacePalmOfDoom his hand]] [[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam glows with an awesome]] '''[[LargeHam POWERRRRR!!!]]'''

*** AND, he tends to [[Main/{{Kiai}} scream]] '''''[[Anime/TurnAGundam UNIVAAAAAAAASE!!!]]''''' A lot!
** For dub fans, [[Creator/ChrisPatton Keima]] steps into the shoes of two VisualNovel protagonists... their anime adaptations, that is -- since he voices [[VisualNovel/EfAFairyTaleOfTheTwo Kyosuke]] and [[VisualNovel/{{Kanon}} Yuichi]].
*** Let's not forget that he used to be a [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic stoic child soldier]] who had NoSocialSkills...
*** In addition, Elsie is [[VisualNovel/{{Clannad}} Nagisa]], and Kanon is [[Manga/SoulEater Black Star]].
** [[Creator/KaoriNazuka Tenri]] was [[CodeGeass a Britannian princess]] while Diana was [[LightNovel/{{Kampfer}} a student council president]] [[{{Troll}} who liked messing with people for fun.]]
** [[Creator/YukaIguchi Tsukiyo]] was previously a TokenMiniMoe [[LightNovel/BokuWaTomodachiGaSukunai Ten-year-old Nun.]] ([[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex make that two]]) She was also [[NotAMorningPerson quite lethargic]] back then, but that did not stop her from [[Anime/GirlsUndPanzer driving a Panzer IV tank like a badass.]]
** [[Creator/AyahiTakagaki Yui]] meanwhile, was a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 a pink-haired Bridge Bunny]], [[LightNovel/FateZero a Filipina Brainy Brunette-turned-Vampire]], AND [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamAGE a seven-year-old Enfante Terrible.]]
** And it seems [[Creator/HarukaTomatsu Mileina]] [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Vashti]] migrated to Maijima [[Anime/Gundam00AWakeningOfTheTrailblazer after the ELS Conflict]] to work as a district chief with a box cutter.
