===Fate/Grand Order===
During the Mahoutsukai no Yoru collaboration event set in the year 2001, Kojika does not physically appear but is heavily implied to have married Tobimaru. Tobimaru makes frequent calls to her every night to report to her.
Upon the information being revealed, Tobimaru asks Aoko if she wanted to leave a message to Kumari as she would be happy to hear from her. Aoko replies "I'm doing well. I hope you are too. Also, our CD vs cassette bet ends in a draw, huh".Fate/Grand Order x Mahoutsukai no Yoru collaboration event: "Mahoutsukai no Yoru After Night" - Section 8
==Development==
Kojika was not part of the original Mahoutsukai no Yoru paper novel that Kinoko Nasu wrote in the 90s. She was created for the visual novel when he realized that the game had no moe character. She was a character created for the purpose of cuteness itself.4gamer interview with Mahoutsukai no Yoru staff.
