Fans realize something Warashi, Hamster and Cosmo Machia does not, that robust 18-year-old Japan Amusement Arcade Hit and its 27-year-old first videogame, while seeming healthy, are in actuality as fragile as two bricks tied together with tissue paper. One mistake, one bad mis-step will cause the entire thing to shatter and fall apart; and Both Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu would be ruined forever.
Fortunately, there is hope. Both Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu fanbases and the common gamers have resolved to remain ever vigilant against something that could Ruin Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu Forever, and call out a warning if they see something that could potentially do so.
Some Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu conservationists suggest a more extreme approach, that the franchises should abandon all attempts at re-invention and instead cater exclusively to the fans. Though attractive, this approach may prove impractical as a long-term solution.
Ruined Forever remains a serious threat to Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu now and in the foreseeable future, though it's possible a proposed initiative requiring all Triggerheart Exelica and Shienryu fans to purchase an annual "Anchor Offset" could ensure our fragile brands existence through the mid-21st century.

Things that have Countered Those[]
- The Anchor Unit feature brought a new gameplay element on shmups.
- Fan support via Fan Arts (Even "Tracing" and AI-Generated art counts).
- After realizing how unrewarding the Arrange Mode ending was, gamers and TH fans will not miss it.
- Triggerheart Exelica made its way to the XBOX Live Arcade as a global release.
- Although there's no Story Mode on the XBLA version, the game combines the Arcade Mode with some elements from Story Mode like the ending conditions and more dialogues.
- Although it was only on i-mode games, the fan request of being able to play as Faintear Imitate was realized.
- Changing Crueltear's design from Test Frame to Triggerheart was a good idea. The TH32 is such a sweet, hot lady.
- The animated intro of Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced gave us an idea of how the characters would look like if an anime was made.
- The April Fools prank became quite of a fact with the animated introduction of Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced.
- Kozue Shimizu made a good work changing Crueltear's voice on both Parallel Anchor and Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced, making it fit better on the TH32.
- The original Triggerheart Faintear becomes playable in the PlayStation 2 port.
- Number TH38 was just an error. Fortunately, it was corrected and now makes more sense that Faintear was numbered TH44 as a more advance successor of the TH32.
- Despite its simplicity, the use of Event CG's, and even more in-game interruptions, the Story Mode of Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced is more detailed and complete than the Dreamcast version.
- Crueltear's "Normal Ending" was uncensored on the Enhanced version.
- Even if their swimsuits look more like their Spec Suits, it's good to see the Triggerhearts revealing more skin. Crueltear wearing a hot bikini, oh yeah!
- i-mode owners are able play with the Triggerhearts anytime, anywhere.
- Kumash! cancellation makes justice to a villain such as Faintear Imitate. ¿Evildoers playing "Whack-a-Mole"? that doesn't sound good.
- The existence of Sky Girls, RGB's Mother Maria, Valforce's Ai, Elena and Nagare and Hundred's Claire Harvey are a testimony of Triggerheart Exelica's popularity, fan attention and a potential to inspire other character designs and good competitors.
- The XBOX One Backwards Compatibility of the XBLA port of Triggerheart Exelica gives both gamers and Triggerheart fans a second chance of playing the game once more.
- ¿Hated Natsuko Kuwatani's voice for Imitate in the Enhanced version?, ¿Do you miss Crueltear's adult tone of voice? Then you can hear Yuko Ishibashi voicing Imitate and Kozue Shimizu's original voice for Crueltear once again in the XBOX One compatible release!
- With the whole list of previous XBOX, XBOX360 and XBOX One games confirmed as "Backwards Compatible" with the XBOX Series X, there's so much more chances than ever of playing Triggerheart Exelica as much as you want!
- Sad because Yakkey's website closed down?, No worries. All of his Triggerheart Exelica based artworks are now preserved for posterity on Wikiheart Exelica.
- Paying for the XBOX 360 port of Exelica means that you care for this game. Go ahead, buy it and support the Triggerheart fanbase.
- If Hamster filed Warashi and Shienryu, this could open hope for Sengeki Striker and even Triggerheart Exelica in the future.
- A Nintendo Switch release gives the chance to play Triggerheart Exelica on the go in a much better way than the trimmed (and defunct) iMode version.
- Despite the stepback, re-releasing the Dreamcast port of Exelica preserves a part of the game's history.
- While being based on the XBLA port again, combining both DC and X360 versions will bring fans a more complete version of what the XBLA port should be.
- Even if Triggerheart Exelica II is in mind and depending on TH's Switch sales, it gives fans hope to see more of this game.
- If you've bought the XBLA release before delisting, you can still play the game in your XBOX One/Series X|S on anytime.
- The Switch is (by now) the last bastion for Triggerheart fans as long as Nintendo keeps supporting the console.
- Red Art Games kept the release dates as secret, but right now we are playing Triggerheart Exelica again.
- The 2023 Release will also be on PC? Well, that's another chance for Triggerheart fans.
- If your PlayStation 2 died out, the Switch re-release will be a great chance to play Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced once more.
