1* AdaptationFirst: While none of the games received an official international release until 2021, the anime was streamed on Website/{{Crunchyroll}} and released by Creator/SentaiFilmworks for home video in America earlier.
2* AlanSmithee: For the first game, the fan disc, and all the drama [=CDs=] released in between, the entire cast was credited with their pseudonyms. But like in ''VisualNovel/TogainuNoChi'''s case, they stopped after the AnimatedAdaptation was released, with any future material crediting the voice actors by their actual names.
3* BonusEpisode: The home video release of the anime includes a [[ThirteenIsUnlucky thirteenth]] episode titled "Data_xx_Transitory". The episode adapts all the bad endings from the original game, and is quite a bit more graphic than the TV anime.
4* CashCowFranchise: To [[Creator/{{Nitroplus}} Nitro+CHiRAL]], as it has produced the most merchandise and has raked in the highest number of sales both in Japan and overseas compared to the developer's other works.
5* DemandOverload: JAST's server crashed on the release date of the localized version of the game.
6* FanTranslation:
7** The first game had a complete fanmade English patch prior to its localization by JAST BLUE.
8** The fandisc, ''re:connect'', remains unlicensed, but a fanmade English patch for it also exists.
9* LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition: The animate edition and the Nitroplus Online Store edition of the PS Vita Port, which has exclusive bonuses. Both editions include an illustrated box, a material book and soundtrack CD. The animate edition includes CD and Vita case, a A4/A5 clear folder and a countdown CD, while the Nitroplus edition has a postcard and a plush of Aoba.
10* NoExportForYou: The 2.5D stage play adaptation is only available on the Japanese DMM storefront. However, the usage of VPN is an easy workaround to this.
11* PlayingTheirOwnTwin: Shogo Yamazaki plays both Ren and [[spoiler:Sei]] in the stage play, which makes sense, considering that [[spoiler:Ren is given Sei's body in his good ending]].
12* PopStarComposer: The original games' ElectronicMusic soundtrack are composed by [[https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/石井秀仁#GOATBED GOATBED]], a Japanese VisualKei Electronica duo.
13* ProductionPosse: Nitro+[=CHiRAL=] collaborators Music/KanakoItou and VERTUEUX return as part of the group of vocal artists (besides GOATBED and Seiji Kimura) for the ending themes.
14* PromotedFanboy:
15** Years before her employment, Honyalala did a [[http://s1.zerochan.net/Lamento.600.81563.jpg fanart]] for ''VisualNovel/LamentoBeyondTheVoid''. She's also a fan of the game's composer GOATBED, and was the one who suggested them to the developers to compose the game's soundtrack.
16** Clara's voice actress (Aya Kuyama) is in fact a Nitro+[=CHiRAL=] fangirl. Clara is her [[OneBookAuthor only role]] to date.
17* RoleReprise: All of the cast from the visual novel return to lend their voices in the AnimatedAdaptation.
18* SleeperHit:
19** This series quickly gained popularity in the Western shores after the FanTranslation for the first game was released and in a year after it, ''[=DRAMAtical=] Murder'' became one of the biggest things in the BoysLove fanbase and on Tumblr.
20** The PS Vita port helped gain the game popularity with the [[LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition Nitroplus Online Store edition]] of the game selling out in less than a few hours after pre-orders began.
21* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to the writers, Clear and Trip's bad endings in ''re:connect'' were supposed to be far more graphic, but some of the content was cut because it was apparently "too dangerous/extreme".
22* WordOfGod: Fuchii Kabura (the game's scenario writer) stated in the ''Nitro+[=CHiRAL=] 10th Anniversary Book'' that Virus and Trip are [[EvilBrit half-British]].
