1* ActingForTwo: The English dub has a few cases of this:
2** Creator/TaraStrong as Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy.
3** Creator/FredTatasciore as Gorilla Grodd and Deathstroke.
4** Creator/AdamCroasdell as Nightwing and Alfred.
5** Creator/YuriLowenthal as Robin and Red Hood.
6* AllStarCast:
7** The Japanese dub cast is absolutely insane. There's Creator/KoichiYamadera as Batman, Creator/WataruTakagi as The Joker, Creator/AiKakuma as Catwoman, Creator/RieKugimiya as Harley Quinn, Creator/JunichiSuwabe as Deathstroke, Creator/TakehitoKoyasu as Gorilla Grodd, Creator/YuichiNagashima (Cho) as The Penguin, Creator/AtsukoTanaka as Poison Ivy, Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa as Two-Face, Creator/KentaMiyake as Bane, Creator/YukiKaji as Robin, Creator/KengoKawanishi as Red Robin, Creator/DaisukeOno as Nightwing, Creator/AkiraIshida as Red Hood, and Creator/HochuOtsuka as Alfred Pennyworth.
8** The English dub is also worth mentioning. We have Creator/RogerCraigSmith as Batman, Creator/TonyHale as The Joker, [[Creator/GreyDeLisle Grey DeLisle Griffin]] as Catwoman, Creator/TaraStrong as Harley and Ivy, Creator/AdamCroasdell as Alfred and Nightwing, Creator/FredTatasciore as Gorilla Grodd and Deathstroke, Creator/YuriLowenthal as Robin and Red Hood, Creator/WillFriedle as Red Robin, Creator/EricBauza as Two Face, and Creator/TomKenny as Penguin.
9* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: The description in the first English trailer mentions that Creator/WillFriedle voices both Red Robin and Red Hood, when in actuality, Creator/YuriLowenthal voices the latter.
10* InternationalCoproduction:
11** The film is a Japanese-American co-production.
12** Interestingly enough, the Latin American Spanish dub is this as well, albeit with a twist: Most of the dub is done in Venezuela just as previous animated works involving either ''Batman'' or the ''WesternAnimation/DCUniverseAnimatedOriginalMovies'', but Joker's voice acting is done in Mexico, since his previous Venezuelan voice actor, Creator/RubenLeon, decided to quit voicing him due to Warner Bros. refusing to give him a pay raise, and no Venezuelan voice actor wanted to voice him in his place out for respect for his work. With no other option available, Warner decided to give his role to a Mexican voice actor, Creator/JavierRivero, who did Joker's voice from there.
13* TheOtherDarrin: Played straight ''and'' subverted in the Japanese version. Creator/KoichiYamadera and Creator/TakehitoKoyasu both return from ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOBatmanMovie'', with Yamadera reprising his role as Bruce/Batman but Koyasu who played Joker in that movie instead plays Gorilla Grodd in ''Ninja''. Instead Creator/WataruTakagi [[TheOtherDarrin takes over as Joker]].
14* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/TonyHale, who usually tends to play neurotic characters, voices the [[LargeHam hammy]], [[AxCrazy psychotic]] Joker in this film.
15* RoleReprise:
16** The Japanese version gives a very interesting version: Creator/KoichiYamadera reprises his role as Batman from not only from the dubs of ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOBatmanMovie'', but also from the Japanese dub of ''Film/Batman1989'' shown on Creator/TVAsahi in the 90s.
17** Creator/WataruTakagi reprises his role as Pipimi (dressed as Joker) in the above-mentioned ''Pop Team Epic'' promo.
18** For the English version, Creator/RogerCraigSmith, Creator/TaraStrong, and Creator/GreyDelisle reprise their [[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries Arkhamverse]] roles as Batman, Harley Quinn, and Catwoman, respectively. Creator/TomKenny also returns to the role of Penguin from ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman''. Creator/FredTatasciore also reprises his ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'' role as Deathstroke and Strong also reprises her ''VideoGame/LegoBatman 3: Beyond Gotham'' role as Poison Ivy.
19** For the Brazilian dub, Eduardo Ribeiro reprised his role as Batman from ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman'', ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' and many other animated films. Sergio Cantú reprises his role as Nightwing from ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010''. Márcio Simões and Hélio Ribeiro reprise their respective roles of Joker and Two-Face from ''Film/TheDarkKnight''. José Santa Cruz reprises his role as the Penguin from ''Film/BatmanReturns''. Miriam Ficher reprises her role as Poison Ivy from ''Film/BatmanAndRobin''. Iara Riça, once again, voices Harley Quinn, as in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' and most of the subsequent appearances of the character, including the movie ''Film/SuicideSquad2016''.
