Drakengard/Trivia


 * Big Name Fan: The Dark Id's let's plays are a frequent recommendation to actually experience the first game in lieu of playing it proper, due to it being considered a very unfun game.
 * Doing It for the Art: Yoko's general attitude towards his game making.
 * Hey, It's That Voice!:
 * Arioch is Sophia and Euphemia Li Britannia.
 * Manah is Peppita Rosetti and MOMO Mizrahi.
 * Furiae is Raine. And Ashe. And Pellegri. And Mirage. And many more!
 * Leonard is Andrew Cherenkov, and his pact partner is Wendee Lee.
 * Seere is Roger S. Huxley and Koushiro Izumi.
 * Caim is Raphael.
 * Troubled Production: Cavia was woefully inexperienced and undermanned for the first Drakengard, and they had trouble with the PS2 hardware when the ground-based battles started to be implemented. This led to the first game's various technical and gameplay problems.
 * What Could Have Been:
 * The time theme for the final non-Goddess seal in the second game and the concept art casting Seere in a decidedly sinister light suggests he was the original final guardian.
 * As for the first game, Arioch was apparently supposed to have been eaten alive by normal-sized babies. Onscreen.
 * Yoko Taro revealed in an interview with Game Informer that his original proposal for Ending E was for Caim and Angelus to defeat a giant version of real-life J-pop idol Ayumi Hamasaki in a singing competition. This proposal was rejected immediately.
 * Zhangpo's pact beast was an Ifrit... and we never get to see said Ifrit.
