Trivia[]
- The chapter's japanese title references Koi no Shirushi, the ending of the first anime season.
- The volume version of this chapter expands on Haqua's and Nora's conversation and implies that Satyr still remains at large and will need to be defeated again in the future. Moreover, the volume version also hints at Haqua remembering Elsie as shown by Haqua remembering her silhouette and the sfx はっ which can be directly translated to a gasp/realizing something. [2]
