** In an alternate, {{Magitech}} universe, [[Creator/{{Yukana}} Cecilia]] [[LightNovel/UnbreakableMachineDoll became the creator]] of [[Creator/AiKayano Madoka]] instead of being heated rivals in terms of BT weapon mastery, with the latter very loyal to the former and addressed her as "Master". Congradulations, Cecilia, now you can finally get your pride back...shame about your missing eye though...

* FakeNationality: In the English dub:
** Sugar Land-born Creator/BrittneyKarbowski provides the [[FakeBrit British-accented]] IS pilot [[TheOjou Cecilia Alcott]].
** Houston native Tiffany Grant voices Laura Bodewig, who appropriately enough, has a German accent.
** Dallas-born actress Shannon Emerick voices the French IS pilot Charlotte Dunois and the German lieutenant Clarissa Harfouch.

** However, the manga adaptations have never been licensed. And after the 2nd manga announced its SeriesHiatus in May 2018, the scanlation group Rapid Switch that had been fan translating it decided to drop the manga since they weren't going to twiddle their thumbs for a year waiting for it to start up again. The manga resumed publication in January 2019 but nobody has stepped up to the plate to translate it.

* NoExportForYou: Averted with the anime series (both Season 1 and Season 2). Meanwhile, as for the novels, while there was a group that fan translated them up to Volume 8, the translating group itself was becoming quite irritated at the story's pacing and incessant fanservice, and they quit the series after that. [[https://daupao.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/infinite-stratos-volume-9-translation/ An independent translator]] managed to finish the first half of Volume 9, but suddenly stopped after that.

** ''KingdomHearts'' fans will finally have their wishes granted with the Orimura siblings: making [[Creator/KoukiUchiyama Ventus]] and [[Creator/MegumiToyoguchi Aqua]] as siblings.

* FountainOfExpies: Cecilia Alcott provided the character design template for many other characters in light novels. From [[LightNovel/BladedanceOfElementalers Rinslet Laurenfrost]] to [[LightNovel/TheAsteriskWar Claudia Enfield]], many different HaremGenre light novels have at least one character who bears a strong resemblance to the Alcott daughter.

** Invoking IThoughtItMeant, detractors call this "limit of successful works", meaning that if a work did not surpass IS's BD sale number(33,813), it cannot be considered successful.

* FranchiseKiller: The failure of the anime's second season killed off the series' reputation, ''especially'' in the West. The significant delays between the novels' releases were also major factor in the brand's declining popularity.

** Sugar Land-born BrittneyKarbowski provides the [[FakeBrit British-accented]] IS pilot [[TheOjou Cecilia Alcott]].

* ScheduleSlip: Due to the author's health, the sixth novel was delayed until December 2010, which was a six month gap between Volumes 5 and 6. Before this, the volumes had never been more than three or four months apart.

* AccidentallyAccurate: Ichika in the novels always called the [[{{Moe}} cute]] {{Sleepyhead}} girl with the long sleeves "Nohohon-san", which roughly means "Ms. Whatever" since he didn't know her name. On her end, she thinks he's calling her a shortened version of her real name. When Ichika finally admits he doesn't actually know her name in Volume 5, she gets upset, though she gets over it fast. Her real name is Nohotoke Honne, which meant Ichika was getting it pretty close the whole time.

* FakeBrit: Sugar Land-born BrittneyKarbowski as [[TheOjou Cecilia Alcott]].
* FakeNationality:
** In the dub, Houston-born Tiffany Grant voices the German Laura Bodewig
** Also from the dub, Dallas native Shannon Emerick as the French Charlotte Dunois and the German Clarissa Harfouch.

** Some fans often referred to the anime's second season as "Infinite Stratos 2: [[OddlyNamedSequel2ElectricBoogaloo Electric Boogaloo]]"

* FranchiseKiller: The lackluster second season ruined the show's repuation, especially in the West. The significant delays between the novels' releases were also major factor in the brand's declining popularity.
