    I didn't care the difference before, lol.

    But one source says that tstsuta age is a sort of karaage, but specifically the one flavored with soy sauce or something before frying it.

    The powder is different.

    Tatsuta age:

    Marinade the meat/fish beforehand, typically; and coat the meat/fish with startch-based powder (片栗粉, Katakuri-ko), and then fry. Starch makes it more crunchy.

    Kara age:

    It's usually coat the meat/fish with flour, or flour-based mix powder.

    Marinading is not always requiered.
