Observations

Waiting Room of Tianjin West Railway Station

• When Touka is explaining the chance of becoming friends, the equation written on the whiteboard is Drake equation, which is usually used to calculate the number of extraterrestrial civilizations.
• When Nemu refutes Touka with the text "Talking about miracles with numerals is boorish", some other texts beside, "燕は王子の足もとに眠りました。" (... and he [the Swallow] slept at the Prince’s feet.) and "天使なんかみたこともないくせに。" (... you have never seen one [angel].) are taken from The Happy Prince. These texts are written in Kyūjitai and old kana, while the one at the center is written in Shinjitai and new kana.
• The design of the hall of Central Tower that Tsukuyo enters is possibly a reference to Tianjin West Railway Station, China (Picture)。
• The witch that Iroha meets on the rooftop is Stacey (Rooftop Witch).

Changes

• Felicia joins Yachiyo, Iroha, and Tsuruno at the end of the opening sequence. The location also changes, with Mikazuki House replacing Mitama's location.
• Mami saves Iroha with her ribbons during his battle against Tsukuyo.

Trivia

• The two girls who share their stories in Kamihama Radio Station are Rika Ayano and Kanoko Yayoi.
• Kanagi Izumi makes a voiced cameo, talking with Yachiyo about the Wings of Magius.
