** Speaking of ''[[Cross Edge|X Edge]]'', 4 characters from it, Lily, Whim, Raze, and Rewrich are from ''Mana Khemia 2'', a game that was planned to be brought over by NISA..... months after ''[[Cross Edge|X Edge]]'' in spite of MK2 far preceding it in Japan in both system and release dates.

** Relatedly, the ''Atelier'' series first came to the US via the ''Iris'' subseries, which was an attempt to use some of the ''Atelier'' concepts in a more standard RPG—namely, one with a male lead and a Defeat The [[Big Bad]] main plot. The fact that ''these'' were the ones that finally managed to get companies interested in a US release is irksome to some fans, as well.

** In a franchise sense, the newest ''Atelier'' games are now coming over, Rorona and Annie respectively... which means that this trope has happened ''again''. Liese Randel in ''[[Atelier Annie]]'' shows up in the second year of gameplay to help out our heroine and seemingly has a bit of history... history which is covered in ''her own game'', ''Atelier Liese'', which didn't make it out of Japan<ref>For reasons related to [[Game Breaking Bugs]] in the initial release</ref> meaning English gamers only know her from ''Annie''.

And then they appeared in ''[[Tales of Eternia]]'' (known in the West as ''Tales Of Destiny 2'') as a [[Bonus Boss]] fight.

** Don't forget Eugene and Annie from ''[[Tales of Rebirth]]''. Their American debut was in 2007 in [[Tales (series)|Tales of the World: Radient Mythology]], ''3 years'' after [[Tales of Rebirth|ToR]] came out in Japan. It has yet to arrive in the USA and I doubt it ever will...
