Trivia [ ]
Some parts of the plot deviated from the original manga and were portrayed very differently, such as Momiji and Shigure's mannerisms. Throughout production, Daichi and Takaya ran into disagreements, including the cast, coloring details, and Daichi's storytelling style, leading Takaya to disliking the series.[1]
