12	** The German dub was directed by Birte Baumgardt, Mikazuki Tsukuyomi's voice actress.
13	* DuelingWorks: With ''Literature/TheAsteriskWar'', which has a similar premise of being a light novel series with {{harem\|Genre}} aspects set in an AcademyOfAdventure where students duel each other with {{Magitek}}. Bonus points for their anime adaptations airing on literally the same day and close to the same time slot too. Not only that, for the first two thirds of the season, both series more or less hit the exact same plot points at the same points in the same episodes. ''Chivalry'' is more comedic and lacks most of ''Asterisk War''[='s=] [[AsimovsThreeKindsOfScienceFiction social science fiction]] aspects. Its anime was also not as long, running for only one twelve-episode season (''Asterisk War'' got two).
14	* HypotheticalCasting: Christina Kelly stated on [[http://ask.fm/christinamariekelly/answers/132709584201 ask.fm]] that she would voice Stella if the anime would be dubbed into English. However, Creator/LuciChristian would end up voicing Stella.
15	* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: With Sol Press' 2021 dissolution, the first five English volumes are out of print, and with Creator/JNovelClub primarily being a digital distributor, it is unknown if the series will ever receive another physical printing.
16	* MilestoneCelebration: The anime adaptation marked the 10th anniversary of SB Creative's GA Bunko label along with ''Literature/IsItWrongToTryToPickUpGirlsInADungeon'', ''Literature/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'', ''Literature/UndefeatedBahamutChronicle'' and ''{{Literature/Hundred}}''.
17	* NetworkToTheRescue: The state of the English license of the light novels was uncertain for over two years after Sol Press's business license was suspended by the state of California mid-2021. It took several months for the Japanese publisher, SB Creative, to realize Sol was no longer an active business entity (and even that was only thanks to the president of Creator/JNovelClub mentioning their demise during a routine conference call) and begin the process to remove the licensed translations from online vendors. And due to the series having gotten far enough in release (5 volumes out), the financial odds of doing a rerelease didn't look good since the overwhelming majority of light novels make their sales in the first few volumes. In spite of all these considerable obstacles, J-Novel Club announced they had rescued the license to the series on November 17, 2023, after over a year and a half of the series hanging in limbo.
18	* NoDubForYou: As of 2022, the only languages the anime is dubbed in are English and German.
19	* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/YoshitsuguMatsuoka usually plays NiceGuy protagonists for Light Novel adaptations, which makes the fact that he's voicing [[StarterVillain Kirihara]] [[{{Jerkass}} of all people]] very jarring. Though one thing Kirihara has in common with many of Matsuoka's other characters is his ChickMagnet [[http://i.imgur.com/uONv5Bm.jpg status]]. However, this isn't the [[Literature/HighSchoolDXD first time]] he's done this.
20	* QueerCharacterQueerActor: In the English dub, the non-operative transfeminine Nagi "Alice" Arisuin is voiced by the openly gay Creator/ChrisPatton.
21	* ScheduleSlip: The series started in July 2013 and published new volumes on a pretty regular basis (with at least one novel per year and up to as many as four a year) up to June 2020 when releases hit a brick wall. In December 2021, Riku Misora [[https://twitter.com/misorariku/status/1472066861257076738 tweeted]] he planned to finish the story by the end of 2022, which did not happen (although he did manage to complete his other LN series, ''I Kissed My Girlfriend's Little Sister'' in that year). After over a year and a half of radio silence, the publisher SB Creative announced [[https://twitter.com/GA_bunko/status/1682329822339674115 in a tweet on July 21, 2023]] that the finale, Volume 19, would be published on December 15, 2023.
22	* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Sol Press, the original license holder for the English release, published only five volumes before being shut down by the California FTB for failing to pay taxes. These five volumes were subsequently removed from storefronts and the series remained in a state of license limbo until Creator/JNovelClub acquired the license.
23	* SleeperHit: By the time the anime premiered, nobody expected the series to be a hit given that it aired alongside ''Literature/TheAsteriskWar''. [[AndYouThoughtItWouldFail Hoo, boy, were they wrong]] by the time episode 4 premiered; the twist that Stella and Ikki would start a romantic relationship removed all pretenses that this show would be another generic battle harem. From that point onward it only started becoming more and more apparent that it wasn't going to be another generic light novel adaptation and considering the parallels to ''The Asterisk War'', many noticed it was doing what that show did... but better! This show also aired the same season as ''Webcomic/OnePunchMan'' and the highly anticipated second seasons of ''{{Manga/Noragami}}'' and ''{{Manga/Haikyuu}}'', making its unexpected success even more surprising.
24	* TransCharacterCisActor: The transfeminine Nagi "Alice" Arisuin is voiced by the cis male voice actors Creator/ShintaroAsanuma and Creator/ChrisPatton in Japanese and English, respectively.
