* AmazonBrigade: The entirety of the Journey to the West cast is composed of GenderBender versions of its characters (including the Bull Demon King) and they are all [[ActionGirl Action Girls]] who [[BloodKnight love a good fight]].



* BeachEpisode: The Character events of the Summer heroes.



* HappyHolidaysDress: Many Hero variants were released depending on the ongoing holiday, such as Christmas and New Year-themed Heroes.
* HelloInsertNameHere: The name of your game account was also the name used by Ex and Revol, the main characters. If you wanted to see their official name written in cutscenes, you had to change your account's name to either Ex or Revol. With the release of the offline app, creating an account is no longer required, so the main characters use their official names for good.

* BlindIdiotTranslation: Dear lord, was the translation done by Flero very flawed.
**For starters, it had tons of interpretation mistakes. For example, if a character was supposed to reffer to someone as "you", sometimes they would say "me" or "I".
**Tatiana's name was changed to [[BarelyChangedDubName ''Titiana'']], for no discernible reason.

* NoMouth: Most of the characters' battle sprites lack a mouth, excluding monsters, [[BeastMan beast men]] (like La Bete and Puss in Boots), and those who have a grin too big to be hidden (like Chaos Godmother and Chaos Rattenfanger).

to:

* NoCureForEvil: Enemy characters were not capable to heal themselves, ''thank god''. This also extended to Healer-type bosses, and those who were PromotedToPlayable did get access to healing spells ready to cast on your party. Averted otherwise in the arena, where the rival team's Healers can use healing skills.

to:

* YouCantFightFate: One of the game's central themes. Refusing to follow whatever it is written in your Book of Fate will result in the Story Zone's [[TheOmnipotent Storyteller]] sending Villains to wipe out everything. Many conflicts in the plot involve the party attempting to convince the fairy tale characters not to ScrewDestiny, whether they like it or not. Once that is done, Reina and Elena procceed to restore the Story Zone to its original state, with every character in it following their Book of Fate as they were originally intended.

** The one-vs-one fights between Ex's party and Momotaro with three Mega Villains (which concluded with a DuelBoss fight between Tao and Momotaro). In fact, Mega Villains are completely absent.
** The original Summer form of Red Riding Hood was replaced by another one that wields a machete. The latter also became a "CanonImmigrant" by appearing in the game (named "Anime ver.") and having her own Symbol event released at the same time as episode 6.

* RelationshipValues: A common staple in mobile gacha games is the ability to raise your playable character's affection/trust in the main character by bringing them to battle as much as possible, which can net you lots of bonuses, and even more info about the characters' themselves (think of [[VideoGame/FateGrandOrder Fate/Grand Order]]'s bond points, and {{VideoGame/Arknights}}' trust system). ''Grimms Notes'' notoriosuly didn't have this feature, until it was introduced ''4 years'' after the initial release. And it was quite a barebones feature, all it ever did was giving you some points to buff some extra abilities for the arena. It had no effect in the Heroes themselves, no new info about them, no bonus attributes for them, etc.



* ForcedTutorial: Regardless of whether you carried over all your data from the previous game or not, you'll still have to complete the prologue tutorial.
* GuestFighter: More external characters made their way into the game.

Added DiffLines:

* JustifiedTutorial: Downplayed, story-wise. Revol already knows how to use his bookmark of guidance to combat Villains, so he teaches Elena how to use it, and by extension, the player in a tutorial. Too bad if you already played the game before Repage launched, because you are still forced to do the same tutorial Ex went through in the previous chapter.

It wasn't strange for advanced players to reach the gold limit (99999999G). This pretty much made the cost of upgrading new Heroes a non-issue.
