Trivia

 * This game now fully credits English voice actors with some changes regarding of some characters' previous voice actors:
 * Due to the deaths of Kagura Mutsuki's Japanese voice actor Keiji Fujiwara and Naoto Kurogane's English voice actor Billy Kametz in 2020 and 2022 respectively, as well as the retirement of both Saki Tsuzura and Yuzuriha (also Nine the Phantom)'s Japanese voice actors, Yumi Shimura and Ayumi Fujimura in 2016 and 2019 respectively, they are all have been recast respectively since it occurs on Nine's Japanese voice actress being recast to share a same voice actress as Mitsuru Kirijo:
 * Kagura Mutsuki: Daisuke Namikawa. Same as Yu Narukami. Similar how Nine shares a same Japanese voice actress as Mitsuru's, albeit different situation
 * Naoto Kurogane: Alejandro Saab
 * Yuzuriha: Kana Ueda. Since Ibuki in the last Season of Street Fighter V
 * Saki Tsuzura: Miyuri Shimabukuro


 * The reason why EN-Eins Perfektewelt was not included in original release's 2.0, because it was in fact a beta stage with incorrect story parts. With the update known as EN-Eins Perfektewelt Anastasis and its new characters' Battle Theme name, the second Subtle Style entry's reps are now qualified to appear in this game.


 * The sprites Arcana Heart (co-drawn by Team Arcana and Arc System Works) and Akatsuki EN-Eins (co-drawn by French Bread and Subtle except Blitztank drawn by Arc System Works) used are also meant to be used for upcoming Arcana Heart 4 (World Extinction Arc) and Fighting Soldat (an HD remake to Akatsuki EN-Eins entries). Same goes for the Nasuverse characters who are introduced (re-introduced for old characters' case) after Tsukihime Blue and Red Remake and Melty Blood: Type Lumina, mainly from upcoming Kagetsu Tohya remake and Melty Blood: Type Act (a remake of Melty Blood Act sub-series).
