For a large number of older fans especially those who grew up in the late 90s and early 2000s and renters of ADV Film's products, plenty still only associate the ''Sakura Taisen'' IP with the [[OriginalVideoAnimation OVAs]] and TV series and are completely unaware they started out as Sega video games. Practically everybody who been playing the video game ''Sakura Taisen'' as early as before 2016 were introduced to the franchise via ADV Film's DVD releases.

** Considering that production on this game began two years before the original Japanese release of ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Pokemon Red and Green]]'', the fact that the robots Kohran summons in her special move look like Magnemites with two eyes is pretty uncanny.


Added DiffLines:

** Instead of keeping Aoi Satan's name as is or directly translating it as "Blue Satan", the translation went with "Cerulean Satan" for AddedAlliterativeAppeal

* CompleteMonster: Aoi {{Satan}} is initially one of the Deathlords in the Hive of Darkness serving Priest Tenkai in attacks on Japan with powerful demons. In truth, Aoi Satan is the devil himself, having [[DemonicPossession possessed]] the prideful warrior [[FallenHero Shinnosuke Yamazaki]] years ago. Upon revealing himself as the true mastermind, Aoi Satan attempts to [[HellOnEarth flood the world with demons]] to wipe out all that lives and rule the universe.

** Towards the end of the game, the government decides to have Sakura Shinguji sacrifice herself to thwart the demon invasion. Sixteen years later, [[VideoGame/SakuraWars2019 Sakura Amamiya finds herself in that exact situation]].

* {{Woolseyism}}: The FanTranslation changes the squad members' various nicknames for Ogami so that they could be easily conveyed to a western audience. Kohran's use of "Ogami-han" becomes "Chief", while Iris calls Ogami "Mon Frère" (The French term for "Brother", referencing her French nationality) instead of "Onii-chan", and Kanna calls Ogami "Boss" instead of "Taicho".

* FirstInstallmentWins: The original game is considered the most successful in the franchise. It had the most sales of a Sega-produced title up to its release date and eventually became the 13th best-selling title for the Sega Saturn with nearly 360,000 copies. Not to mention it won four awards at the first CESA Awards. The Imperial Combat Revue is also the group most players will remember.

** The flashback at the beginning of chapter 3 where we see Maria watching her captain die in the Russian Revolution in 1917. While exhausted under a raging inferno, Maria’s captain gets shot in the chest and falls to the ground, dead. Maria can only yell the captain’s name in shock as she rushes towards him. WarIsHell, indeed.
** Those with astraphobia (fear of thunder) will be unnerved by the scene where Sakura is afraid of lightning when she sees the Flower Division in a dark room and lightning suddenly strikes.
** In chapter 5, Sumire and Kanna encounter a spider and a snake while in an abandoned house, and get easily shocked out of their wits. [[SincerityMode Seriously, be careful when playing this game if you have either ophidiophobia (fear of snakes) or arachnophobia (fear of spiders)]].
