Queen's Blade/Trivia


 * Acting for Two - At least three:
 * Yoko Hikasa as Dora, the Guest Fighter Junko Hattori and Hana Katsuragi.
 * Aya Hirano as Nanael and Guest Fighter Katja
 * Rie Kugimiya as Melona and Rana
 * All-Star Cast
 * Alan Smithee - The English dub's cast. Only Leina, Nanael, Setra and the Count Vance's voice actors are credited by their real names.
 * Hey It's That Voice -- The entire cast.
 * Konata got a haircut and a pair of wings, and Kotomi is now a shrine maiden. Just to name a few.
 * Melona's voice actress also voices A fire playing red head and a Pink haired Magician. Both are completley the opposite to Melona when it comes to their, Ahem, assets. The pink haired one is especially worried about this. Her English voice actor also voiced, rather amusingly, Amy Rose in Sonic X
 * Risty's VA also voiced a Fiery Redhead who pilots a mobile suit
 * In the English dub: Leina is Aika Sumeragi, Nanael is Excel's first voice, Melona is Amy Rose and Lina Inverse, Setra is Parn and Count Vance is Yugi Mutou!
 * Relationship Voice Actor --
 * Both Leina and Tomoe become the Bridge Bunnies of the Diva.
 * As an interesting tidbit, both Melona and Claudette's VAs voiced Lyra and Ms. Coulter respectively in the Japanese TV dub of The Golden Compass. the funny part about this is, while in Queens Blade one is the villain and the another is one of the heroines, in the Japanese dub of The Golden Compass both VAs get their roles inverted this time around.
 * Most of the female cast of the series also worked in the Japanese dub of Cold Case. The hilarious part of this is most of them voice many of the victims or murderers of that series. Even more hilarious is the fact that Atsuko Tanaka (Claudette) dubs the main protagonist, Lilly Rush, whose main job is solve those murders.
 * What Could Have Been - Originally, the Queen's Blade Spiral Chaos game was planned as a multi-series crossover game Super Robot Wars-style, but using non-mecha series (besides Queens Blade, other anime series were planned to appear) but it wasn't possible those series to be included, due to the authors and companies being reticent to allow their characters being crossed-over with other characters from other series. The sequel, Queen's Gate Spiral Chaos is the closest thing to the original idea Banpresto was able to get and still they weren't allowed to use Kasumi from the Dead or Alive series and she's replaced with both Wonder Momo and Noel Vermillion instead.
 * It's very possible the reason why Kasumi wasn't included is because Tomonobu Itagaki (the former Dead or Alive director) trashed Tekken (a Namco Bandai franchise) really hard and it's possible that Namco Bandai doesn't want Kasumi being crossed-over along with Lily from Tekken
 * Curiously, possibly most of that original idea was used in Heroes Phantasia, another Banpresto crossover game for the PSP.
