Trivia

  • Bayonetta and Joker are the only main protagonists who are selectable in the tourney, though Meta Knight and Dark Pit are more commonly considered anti-heroes, and so is Wolf to a lesser extent.
    • In the case for Meta Knight, the banner uses Meta Knight's Dark Meta Knight alternative costume, a completely separate character who is the shadowy Mirrow World counterpart to Meta Knight.
  • Since its first run commemorated the inclusion of Sephiroth, the name of the tourney may reference the Reunion, an event from Final Fantasy VII in which Jenova's cells will try and return to its original body, influencing the mind of those that were injected with them, including Cloud Strife.
