NieR/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Acting for Two: Devola and Popola share a voice actress, while Jakob and Gideon share a voice actor.
  • Creator Killer: Cavia closed down following the game's commercial underperformance.
  • Dueling Games: NieR was published by Square Enix at roughly the same time as their post-apocalypse epic fantasy Final Fantasy XIII.
  • Hey, It's That Voice!: Gestalt might as well be called Darker Tales of Vesperia. Devola/Popola being Estelle, Kaine being Gauche, Nier being Duke, and Emil being Karol, oh, and Weiss is Cumore.
  • Word of Gay: The creators confirmed Emil is in love with Nier during interviews. When asked if it might just be platonic, they outright insisted he's gay.
