* [[Actor Existence Limbo]]: [[Hirotaka Suzuoki]], who voiced [[Gundam|Bright Noah]], died between ''Another Century's Episode 2'' and ''Another Century's Episode 3: The Final''; all of Bright's lines in the latter are taken from the first game.
* [[What Could Have Been]] - On Banpresto's official blog, [[Word of God]] said the team's first choice to round out the [[Zeta Gundam]] cast in R was Four Murasame piloting the Psyco Gundam, but because of game balance concerns and a lack of weapons they ultimately went with Amuro and the Dijeh instead.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: The [[Original Generation]] characters:
** [[Macross 7]] was also considered for inclusion in R, but the design team couldn't figure out a way to make the "attack with music" system work in ''A.C.E.''. They ended up replacing it with ''[[Macross Frontier]]'', which caused the game to be delayed about a year while they changed things around.
** ''Another Century's Episode 2'': [[Daisuke Kishio]] as Tak and [[Naomi Shindo]] as Marina.
** In one of his blog posts, Terada mentioned that [[Super Robot Genre|Super Robots]] aren't normally supposed to get into ''A.C.E.'', but some factors could change that<ref>Specifically mentioned are popularity and ability to mesh with a 90s/2000s-style serious plotline</ref>, and listed a bunch of shows that were considered but ultimately rejected. This list includes: ''[[Daitarn 3]]'', [[Braiger|the J9 Trilogy]], ''[[Shippu Iron Leaguer]]'', ''[[Jushin Liger]]'', ''[[Daiohja]]'', ''[[Zambot 3]]'', ''[[Space Warrior Baldios]]'', ''[[Trider G 7]]'', ''[[Makyou Densetsu Acrobunch]]'', ''[[Mirai Robo Daltanious]]'', the Eldran franchise, ''[[Go Shogun]]'', the [[Combattler V|Nagahama]] [[Voltes V|Romance]] [[Daimos|Triolgy]], ''[[Go Lion]]'', ''[[God Mars]]'', ''[[Gaiking]]'', ''[[Kotetsu Jeeg]]'', ''[[GEAR Fighter Dendoh]]'', ''[[God Sigma]]'', ''[[Mechander Robo]]'', and ''[[Raideen]]''. Also mentioned as prime candidates were ''[[Gao Gai Gar]]'' and ''[[Ninja Senshi Tobikage]]''.
** ''Another Century's Episode 3: The Final'': [[Daisuke Namikawa]] as Barrel and {{spoiler|Belkt}}, [[Mie Sonozaki]] as Fei.
** ''Another Century's Episode: R'': [[Miyuki Sawashiro]] as Autumn with Cure Peach and Cure Passion as the evil girls.
* [[Name's the Same]]: [[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Shinn Asuka]] and [[Macross Zero|Shin Kudo]] in ''Another Century's Episode: R''. [[Lampshaded]].
* [[No Export for You]]: Due to the ridiculous difficulty in licensing all the mecha, it will never see release across the Pacific.
* [[Post Script Season]]: ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny]]'' is already over by the time ''Another Century's Episode: R'' starts; the first stage has Shinn, Kira and Athrun Zala facing off against an unknown enemy using Earth Alliance mobile suits.
* [[Preorder Bonus]]: ''Another Century's Episode: R'' has Amuro's custom Zeta Gundam, originally seen in the IMAX film ''Green Divers'' and later in ''Gundam Evolve''.
** To be more specific, everyone can unlock it. The pre-order code just let you get it earlier than normal.
* [[Talking to Himself]]:
** [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Yazan Gable]], [[Metal Armor Dragonar|Tapp Oceano]] and [[Heavy Metal L-Gaim|Mirao Kyao]] in the first game, with the latter two making a return appearance in ''Another Century's Episode 2''.
** Barrel {{spoiler|(almost literally) with Belkt}} in ''Another Century's Episode 3''.
** Ryusei and [[Full Metal Panic!|Kurz Weber]] ([[Shinichiro Miki]]), Zero and [[Macross Frontier|Luca Angelloni]] ([[Jun Fukuyama]]), Kira, [[Code Geass|Gino Weinberg]] and [[Macross Frontier|Brera Sterne]] ([[Soichiro Hoshi]]), and Shinn and Shin ([[Kenichi Suzumura]]) in ''Another Century's Episode: R''. The latter's actually [[Lampshaded]], (along with [[Name's the Same]]) by Alto.
* [[Urban Legend of Zelda]]: It's ''astonishing'' how many people like to spread rumors the ''Another Century's Episode''. [[Original Generation]] will one day appear in the ''[[Super Robot Wars Original Generation]]'' sub-series
** Considering SRW brought in characters from ''Hero Senki'' and ''Great Battle'', and ''Another Century's Episode'' is pretty much just SRW run through the ''[[Armored Core]]'' filter, this isn't as far out as it seems.
*** Now there's a bit of reciprocity, if not, complete [[Irony]]: ''Super Robot Wars''{{'}} own [[Original Generation]] are part of ''Another Century's Episode: R''{{'}}s lineup.
*** And now the Geshpenst models from ''Portable'' are appearing in ''[[Super Robot Wars Original Generation|Original Generations 2]]'', so it's not really an Urban Legend anymore.
