1* ActingForTwo: In ''No Game No Life Zero'', Creator/YoshitsuguMatsuoka voices both Sora and Riku, with Creator/ScottGibbs following up for the English dub. The same happens for Creator/AiKayano and Creator/CaitlynnFrench with Shiro and Schwvi, and Creator/YokoHikasa and Sara Ornelas as Steph and Corone.
2* BannedInChina:
3** As of August 2020, the Australian Classification Board (ACB) has not allowed classification for volumes 1-2 and 9, effectively banning them. It was reported that the Centre Alliance had requested the ACB for an official classification.

4** China has not allowed the novels only, calling it a threat to Chinese society.
5* {{Defictionalization}}: The special edition UsefulNotes/BluRay comes with actual panties. ''Shiro's panties''.
6* InternationalCoproduction: The Latin American Spanish dub was done with voice actors from both Chile and Argentina, both neighboring countries. Also, this one of the few Latin American dubbing co-productions that doesn't involve either Mexicans or Hispanic voice actors from the U.S.
7* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: The Latin American Spanish dub of the ''Zero'' movie is pretty egregious in this regard, as the TV series based in the film was never broadcasted dubbed in that region until 2020.[[note]]The anime was, however, simulcasted subtitled in Crunchyroll, HIDIVE and Amazon Prime Video.[[/note]] The same happened in Brazil, where the Portuguese-dubbed movie debuted on Creator/{{Netflix}} without the TV series on December 2019. Two months later the Latin Spanish and Portuguese dubs of the TV series debuted on the platform alongside ''Literature/IsItWrongToTryToPickUpGirlsInADungeon''.
8* NoDubForYou: Ironically, the Portuguese language is one of the last languages alongside Latin Spanish to subvert this and get a dub for the anime, if you consider [[UsefulNotes/{{brazil}} the origins of the series' creator]], released in almost six years after the first broadcast of the anime.[[note]]The anime was dubbed in Portuguese in 2019, but it took almost one year to be officially released completely dubbed.[[/note]]
9* PlayingAgainstType:
10** Creator/YokoHikasa generally plays [[MsFanservice sultry seductresses]], Aloof ActionGirl or {{Tsundere}}, so her casting as ButtMonkey Steph is a bit surprising. Interesting, Stephanie is almost the same character type as [[Manga/KOn Mio Akiyama]], Hikasa's StarMakingRole.
11** With Creator/YoshitsuguMatsuoka voicing him, you'd expect Sora to be a calm NiceGuy with strong morals, wouldn't you? Nope! The guy's got NoIndoorVoice, is a massive pervert, and an ego so large you could orbit a moon around it.
12** It's been a while since Creator/MiyukiSawashiro voiced a high-pitched TokenMiniMoe, as these days she's mostly type cast as badass {{Action Girl}}s.
