As I will mention about certain parts of the stories and endings of Fairy Fencer f and the 2 Shadow Hearts games.
Personally each one is just a coincidence but when all put together it seems a bit too much.
Maybe I am reading too much into this but I find it funny that Fairy Fencer F was made by Idea Factory whom made Chaos Wars which featured Shadow Hearts characters like Yuri Alice Karen and Nicolai, which some how I mention them again below.... mmm....
1. The Cover
When I first came across the game just by chance, it instantly grabbed my attention.
Fang looks like Yuri, Tiara looks like Alice and Eryn looks like Karin. If there was ever a anime version of Shadow Hearts it would kinda look like this. Keep note about appearances for later.
2. Similar Bad Guys?
Another character called Sherman sort of resembles Nicholai in his all white get up.
Also very similar roles since he is a bad guy who initially seemed good and that he was like a tool but had other ideas from of who he was working for.
3. Tiara drinks tea / acts British
And Alice Elliot is from London and this already adds together with similar colour schemes.
4. Overall story tone.
It is somewhat similar there is the serious side and the goofy side.
Fairy Fencer would be a very good bit more on the goofy side compared to Shadow Hearts. With no horror elements, so it is more like from the new world in terms of the goofy and sometimes the serious side from Covenant.
But in tone quite similar but different here and there. (A little bit less of this and a bit more than that / different quantities on the scales but roughly the same ingredients.
5. Fairize (fairy fencer f) is similar to fusion (shadow hearts)
what the title says not much to add here.
6. God / Goddess Pulling out swords to get abilities is somewhat like graveyard.
They are both somewhat graves and you gain different abilities in Fairy Fencer F or fusions in Shadow Hearts. Probably the weakest point here but still a tiny tiny bit similar and when you think about the rest, was this point weak after all?
7. Who was needed for a bad guys scheme?
Dorfa wanted Tiara for their scheme which is like in Shadow Hearts part 1
when Dehuai wanted Alice for his.
8. A wish to save your love?
In Fairy Fencer F game about midway through, Tiara dies and Fang's wish was to go back into the past to save Tiara which is pretty much the good ending in Shadow Hearts Covenant where
Yuri makes a wish to go back in time and saves Alice.
9. Feelings between Fang and Eryn compared to Yuri and Karin.
Erin says to Fang that she was falling in love / is in love with Fang
But Fang didn't really say anything like in Shadow Hearts Covenant where Karin said that she loves Yuri but then he doesnt say anything either.
Fang ends up with Tiara and Eryn becomes a mother like figure watching over him.
Eryn develops feelings for Fang but Fang did not feel the same way but still cares for her.
Similar to what Yuri and Karin went through.
Although saying that I don't know what changes you can do in the story
I felt like I didn't do anything to get a specific ending
Only time where you get a choice in conversations is when one night fang was hungry and you get to choose who to disturb
Unless if its about party members or if i have to ignore conversations or maybe even something else
*Also please note that I have not played fairy fencer f advent dark force and there are 3 endings with variations, only played through fairy fencer f once but I may try FFF advent dark force soon.*
