** Some of Mio's intermission dialogue in the ''Second Original Generation'' makes references to a [[Anime/{{Doraemon}} "talking, well-made robot cat", wondering where its pocket is]]. Later, she'll ask whether [[Series/{{Thunderbirds}} "palm tress will fall over or the pool slides open"]] and reference ''Gaia Savers'', another Banpresto-developed MassivelyMultiplayerCrossover as "The Hero's Greatest Strategies guys".

Additionally, a FanTranslation of ''The Lord of Elemental'' on the Super Famicom [[https://aeongenesis.net/projects/srwg has been released by Aeon Genesis]], allowing an English language experience for the beginning of Masaki's tale.

* SequelDifficultyDrop: ''Coffin of the End'' tones down the difficulty of ''Pride of Justice'', however there are lot more enemies that need to be killed.

* BackgroundMusicOverride: For its time, averted in the original game; after you exit the battle scene, the music will revert back to the map theme instead of continuing to play in the map, making the awesome battle themes looked underused and cut out a lot. Further remakes like in the DS version and PSP version puts the feature back similarly to other ''Super Robot Wars'' games, and the FanTranslation goes an extra mile to add an option to let the battle music continue instead of playing back the map music.

** TheHero: Masaki
** TheLancer: Yang Long
** TheBigGuy: Ricardo; succeeded by Mio
** TheSmartGuy: [[Characters/MasouKishin Princess Xenia Grania Bilseia]]
** TheChick: Tytti
** TheSixthRanger: Lune; sometimes doubles as Masaki's other Lancer.

* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:Part 1 ends with the Kingdom of Langran nearly destroyed, King Alzarl and one of the Heralds, [[Characters/MasouKishin Ricardo Silvera]], are dead and the supposed "culprit" Shu leaves to the surface world to help [[Characters/SuperRobotWars2 Bian Zoldark]] with his impending revolution. Masaki leaves La Gias in pursuit of his nemesis, leaving Langran exposed to enemy occupation from opposing nations]].

* VaporWare: "Aeon Genesis", who did the FanTranslation of ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars3'' and ''Alpha Gaiden'' have been saying they're gonna do this one...for almost ''a decade'' now.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: The final boss of ''Coffin of the End'' falls into the Cross Gate which connects to Earth.]]

** In ''Revelation of Evil God'', one of [[spoiler: Ricardo's]] first lessons is to teach Mio how to throw a proper punch. The Zamzeed's new "Chou Dokyu Shin Dou Ken" attack looks similar to [[FistOfTheNorthStar Raoh's "Defiant Fist To Heaven"]] pose.

'''Super Robot Wars Gaiden''' (subtitled as ''Masou Kishin: The Lord of Elemental'') is the first OriginalGeneration game [[UrExample EVER]]. That said, it was released on the SuperFamicom in 1996, featuring some of the best 16-bit visuals ever, mecha drawn to scale (the first [=SRW=] to avert the SuperDeformed formula), and had a storyline that made ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars4'' look like FanFiction. Suffice to say, this is the best ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' installment on the console.

** Lune sharing the same voice actor as Allenby may be a loose one to ''MobileFighterGGundam'', seeing as that series and the Lune's Valsione are [[MotionCaptureMecha powered by very similar systems]].
