** In the Plus update for the mod, [[spoiler:you can unlock costumes for Boyfriend, Girlfriend and the other girls to use during the post-prologue songs, such as ones based around the Festival covers, and even extending to variations and alternate versions of Boyfriend such as [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinMinus the Minus Boyfriend trio]], [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinSoft Benjamin]] and [[VideoGame/HoloFunk Aloe]].]] A full list can be seen under the [[UnlockableContent/DokiDokiTakeover Unlockable Content page of this article]].

However, the Final Farewell update manages to get around this by adding an outfit ''based'' on Henry instead of a direct cosplay.]]

* AdaptationalBadass: Natsuki in ''Doki Doki Takeover!'', and by extension ''Doki Doki Literature Club!'', has never had any powers nor any fighting capability. In "My Streets", she looks to be no stranger to a scrap and even has new [[PlayingWithFire fire powers]] to boot.

** The mod as a whole also has a much broader change relating to VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub's metafictional elements: in ''Takeover!'', ''Doki Doki Literature Club!'' is a FictionalVideoGame within the VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin universe much like ''Hating Simulator''. At first, the only effect this really has is that [[FourthWallObserver Monika]] never [[AddressingThePlayer speaks to you directly]] like in her original game, as the "player" she longs for is instead an unseen character InUniverse; [[spoiler:a similar case occurs with Sayori, who remarks on how Boyfriend and Girlfriend "broke through to the digital world from the real world"]]. However, it becomes much more relevant later in the mod, as the fantastical nature of the ''Friday Night Funkin''' world means that [[spoiler:Boyfriend and Girlfriend are actually able to bring the Literature Club members out of the game, giving them a much happier ending compared to the original ''Doki Doki Literature Club!'']].

** The Plus update, however, [[spoiler:introduces "Libitina" as the mod's true final song, unlocked after completing every other song aside from "Epiphany" and its "WITH LYRICS" variation. While there are no Eyes of Markov this time around, every note in the song is on the player's side of the screen, akin to the likes of [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinChaosNightmare "Phantasm"]], and the song is really fast-paced until the climax, meaning the player must be on their toes to get through this final hurdle to OneHundredPercentCompletion of the mod.]]

* OddFriendship: Sayori is canonically friends with Zipper, which is shown through the Side Story song from the Plus update "Constricted". One is a mysterious CartoonCreature in a straitjacket who can only communicate through screams, the other is a cheerful schoolgirl, and yet they managed to bond to the point where Zipper had been happily following Sayori around, leading her to introduce him to the rest of the literature club.

(and no real desire to return after what she did). [[spoiler:Or so she thinks. She is very much able to go back; she just had no reason to ''try'' until Boyfriend and Girlfriend needed rescuing. Played straight in the Bad Ending, where Monika is legitimately unable to find a way back into the game.]]
