* CharacterRerailment: While most fans liked how Diana was presented in the TV series, there was some criticism over how her AcademicAlphaBitch qualities ended up getting toned down to the point of making her too "perfect" (a criticism that is even shared by [[CreatorBacklash Yoh Yoshinari himself]]). While ''Chamber of Time'' keeps true to her personality as established in the TV series and retains her good qualities (it is intended to be canon after all), some of her less desirable and AlphaBitch qualities are brought back and given a bit more of a spotlight in the game compared to the series.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: While still toned down compared to the films, the game puts a bit more emphasis on Diana's AlphaBitch and childish traits compared to the TV series and gives her a couple of moments in the game where she's NotSoAboveItAll. A move praised by fans who felt Diana was too boring and/or flawless in the series.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: The conversation subsystem borrows the aesthetics of a VisualNovel, with each character having a set number of fixed poses that the model instantly jumps between. However, it ''also'' has {{Idle Animation}}s for each of those poses. As a result, characters cut from one idle animation to another without any skeletal blending in a very jerky and off-putting way.

* EnjoyTheStorySkipTheGame: A common point made in reviews. They almost invariably agree that the story and presentation is excellent and perfectly matches the series on top of offering plenty of fun character moments and bits of fanservice throughout the numerous side quests, while their opinions on both the overworld exploration and the underworld dungeon crawling range from "functional yet unremarkable" to "buggy, laggy, unplayably broken mess".

* CharacterRerailment: Like the Keisuke Satō manga, while it's still toned down compared to the short films, the game makes Diana's AlphaBitch traits a bit more promiment after they were significantly toned down in the TV series, while also showcasing more of her less mature and competitive sides from the films at a few points, which were also toned down in the TV series.
