Trivia[]
- There is an error in this episode regarding the time it takes place on:
- On one scene, the wall calendar on Kyōko's room shows a month that only has 25 days and starts on a Wednesday the 1st.
- But on a following scene, the same wall calendar on Kyōko's room shows a month that has 30 days and still starts on a Wednesday the 1st.
- In the scene at Chachamaru where Godai meets the tenants, there is a background song being played on the bar, called "Nakasete" (Let me grieve) by Ogura Kei.
- In a scene where Kyōko is on the street, a bus passes with a sign that says "Plan Parker presents Pink Floyd The Wall" on it.
- In the next scene, there is a magazines stand where there are several references:
- A magazine has a title "Depeche Mode" on it, referencing the electronic music band from the 80s.
- Another magazine has a title that says "Jude", probably referencing the song "Hey Jude" by the Beatles.
- Kyōko is reading a magazine that has comic strip with Lum and Ataru Moroboshi from Urusei Yatsura.
- The song Cinema performed by Picasso is used as an insert song in the scene with Kyōko at Godai's college.
