* NightmareFuel: Given what this story is a crossover of, this should come as no surprise...
** Karin's breakdown in Timeline X + N [[spoiler:that causes her to turn into a Witch]] is rather unsettling as she cycles through the FiveStagesOfGrief; as she realizes that [[spoiler:Yuzu cannot be saved thanks to the destruction of her Soul after the battle with Witch Cynthia]], before gradually and completely breaking down, [[spoiler:transforming into Witch Alexandria.]]
*** The OutsideContextProblem that is associated with [[spoiler:Alexandria]] should also come to mind as the ''Bleach'' cast's first encounter with a Witch Labyrinth. The disturbing psychological angle in traversing it is a major one, but even moreso with confronting [[spoiler:Alexandria herself, a massive {{Dracolich}} monster completely unlike any kind of Hollow they have encountered. Ichigo and Isshin don't even ''try'' to fight her, leaving the dirty work to Hitsugaya and Homura.]]
** While Timeline X + N does ''not'', thankfully, give us the visuals of [[spoiler:Zanka no Tachi's South ability, seeing the bankai in action on the World of the Living and not the Soul Society is horrific in the sheer destructive power it exudes. Karakura Town is completely burned, and both Homura and Urahara are in sheer ''agony'' from the burning heat, which begins to set ''them'' on fire. To make it more unsettling, this was all ''before'' the anime was revived for the final arc, so it's not difficult to watch the animation for it and then apply it to one's thoughts re-reading ''this'' scene.]]

** After Karin and Yuzu save Ichigo from a Witch, they agree with Urahara to tell him he passed out because he skipped too many meals. Several years later, much the same idea comes up in ''VideoGame/MagiaRecordPuellaMagiMadokaMagicaSideStory'' during Ria Ami's winter costume story, although there it's the victim who concludes that he must have passed out due to skipping breakfast.

** The idea of Witches and Hollows being the same thing was already brought up long ago, just like the comparison between the Walpurgisnacht and Menos. The idea becomes more reinforced in the anime of ''MagiaRecordPuellaMagiMadokaMagicaSideStory'', when [[spoiler:Iroha has to deal with her own inner Witch/Doppel that is Giovanna, exactly how Ichigo struggles with his Inner Hollow]].
