* [[My Real Daddy]]: Kazuma Kaneko and his artwork. The series just wouldn't have been the same without it. The series actually received some fire for the announcement that Masayuki Doi, who has done art/coloring/other work for Atlus games would be doing character art. Several Sentai plus other artists would be doing new demon art for ''[[Shin Megami Tensei IV]]''.

* [[The Scrappy]]: A LOT of fans hate whoever is on the side of Law in each game that has a Law-Neutral-Chaos axis, such as the Messians in ''[[Shin Megami Tensei I]]'' and ''[[Shin Megami Tensei II|II]]'', Amane in ''[[Devil Survivor]]'', and {{spoiler|Zelenin and the Three Wise Men}} in ''[[Strange Journey]]''.

* [[Sequel Displacement]] - Before [[Shin Megami Tensei]], there were two games for the Famicom called Megami Tensei (the first was adapted from the first novel of the ''Digital Devil Story'' series of novels). Few outside of Japan have heard of them, and even in Japan the number of gamers who came of age during the 90s and 00s who've actually played those games (or read the novel) are increasingly few in number.

** ''[[Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne]]'' was not the first game released with the ''Shin Megami Tensei'' supertitle in the west. The largely forgotten Demi Kids games also had it (in small text) and predate Nocturne's release in the west by a year.

* [[That One Attack]]: Any spell with the "Megido-" prefix. It must mean [[Nintendo Hard|"fuck your life"]] in some other language.
