Monoma's cutting power was somewhat influenced by the burst animation of this Genshin Impact character.

This number was originally the "superman" of the school but was later changed to just be a pretty boy instead.
17 (Grayson)
The story was changed to take a darker turn after the author learned more about this series and took some light inspiration from it.

Despite how it seems, this character is powerless as the "head honcho" of the whole operation.

Lily (35) described marriage to be this (word for word to get the points cause everyone gonna remember this), not understanding it's more of a romantic bond.
