Trivia

• In the NTSC English version of Fates there is a possibility for a female Nohrian prisoner unit to have the name "Nina", thus sharing names with this character. Units with generated names like this have sometimes had names from characters in other games, but this is the first instance of a generated character possibly sharing a name with a main player unit within the same game.
• Nina's critical cut-in portrait is missing her braids. This cannot be seen in normal gameplay due to the way critical cut-ins are displayed; large portions of the portrait are unseen due to electrical currents being overlayed.
