Trivia / Cardfight!! Vanguard

• Artistic Age: According to Word of God, Tetsu is 17/18, but looks like a middle age man, lampshaded by Emi in Episode 78 when she calls him "Ojisan" and towards the end of Asia-Hen with Ali doing the same.
• Ascended Meme: The term Kaiqualia was actually said in a Mini Van short.
• Dueling Shows: With Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, which aired the season after it. Both focus on middle school aged kids and card games. It helps that the creator of Vanguard actually started out as a manga-ka for Yu-Gi-Oh! R and Takahashi's (the creator of YGO) understudy.
• No Export for You: All 3 3DS games, Ride to Victory, Lock On Victory and Stride To Victory. The company that produced the games, FuRyu has said that they have no intentions of translating the games. The 3DS region lock doesn't help the matter either. So if you want to play the game, you have to buy a Japanese 3DS just to play it. This has prompted fans to send petitions to Nintendo to localize the games.
  • The Legion Mate arc of the anime was skipped in the dub. This is due to either Bushiroad wanting to have the dub of the anime and English card releases closer to the Japanese releases, or because of the director for the first 4 series, who also helps with the directing of the dub, retiring.
  • Bushiroad's crossover collaboration with hololive's Suisei Hoshimachi event for Zero is Japanese-only, as there are no plans to release the event in the west. This disappointed several fans of the Vtuber as it was confirmed that Bushiroad International will no longer tie with Japanese-exclusive events. This ends up being subverted due to fan demand that Bushiroad decides to release the event in the English version.
• Playing Against Type: Ren Suzugamori is quite different from Atsushi Abe's usual type.
