Trivia[]
- In the scene where Godai is partying with the tenants at his room, there is a poster on one of the walls with the legend "Shell Oils" on it. That may be a reference to Shell, the British multinational oil and gas company.
- At the beginning of the scene where Godai is talking to Kozue Nanao at the café, there is a store sign that says "Maris" on it. It could be a reference to the 1986 OVA "Maris the Chojo", based on a work by Rumiko Takahashi.
- In the scene where Godai is talking to Kozue Nanao at the café, there is a background song. It is called "Mou Sukoshi Tooku" (A Little Farther Away) by Takao Kisugi.
