Trivia

 * The backstory of Ehit having been responsible for creating the Gruen Desert long ago is later touched upon briefly in Volume 11 of the light novel.
 * In Volume 5, Hajime originally claims that Kaori cannot drive his vehicle "Brise" due to it being designed to only work for those who can manipulate their own mana. This story retcons this fact, by giving Brise a feature that allows anyone with mana to operate it through a voice command.
