Trivia

• The name Kamihama (神浜) likely originates from combining the Kanji names of two major Japanese cities: Kobe (神戸) and Yokohama (横浜).
  • It may also be a combination of the terms "kami" (神), a spirit in Japanese Shintoism, and "hama" (破魔), meaning "exorcism", the expulsion or defeat of evil spirits.
    • This would be an obvious reference to both needing to defeat Rumors and the ability of magical girls to summon their Witch forms as Doppels.
  • Some of the cityscapes of Kamihama City seem to reference the real one of the cities of Kobe and Yokohama.
