* [[Art Evolution]]: The series used semi-realistic sprites for battle until the GBA era, where it switched to a more cartoony, expressive style. As of ''Path of Radiance'', they've switched back to realistic models, although ''Radiant Dawn'' uses more vibrant colors to make the models stand out. |

** ''The Sacred Stones'' had also been experimenting with pre-rendered 3D graphics for some of the new units and spells. The next handheld game ''Shadow Dragon'' then primarily used a semi-3D style. [[Conspicuous CG|Needless to say, gamers weren't too pleased with that style in either game]]. |

* [[The Artifact]]: The presence of unusual hair colors was originally due to the Famicom's quite limited color options. Despite better color options and an overall grounded artstyle, many characters still have blue and green hair. The colors are even explicitly mentioned in several games, just to show it's not [[Hair Color Dissonance]]. |

* [[Artifact Title]]: Averted. With the exception of Jugdral (where it gets a brief mention in ''Fire Emblem 4'''s ending and calls it "seal of fire" instead of [[Gratuitous English]]), every universe is given its own "Fire Emblem". |

* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: ''Path of Radiance'' and ''Radiant Dawn'': Elincia, first Princess and later Queen, is a phenomenally useful and powerful unit; the Laguz Royals seem to follow this as well, although in the case of the Beast and Bird Tribes, it is stated to be more [[Asskicking Equals Authority]]. |
