==Trivia==
*CRiTORA: abnormal was originally going to focus on a different Mighty Trio - Osmehel Solsym, Darrell Halostorm, and Ingrid Sprinkandle - working together to escape the Abnormal District while dealing with a lethal permanent V-CRiTORA known as [ERROR SCRAMBLED NAME] (later revealed to be Yolky) who slashes and deletes any CRiTORA she sees upon sight. However, due a brief falling out between Daydreaming Birdie and LastyGhost in Late 2022, as well as the initial concept being too dark for the CRiTORA series in general, it was cancelled. Once Birdie and Lasty reunited, CRiTORA: abnormal was brought back because it was, in LastyGhost's words, "too amazing to leave in the dust." 
**Osmehel, Darrell, and Ingrid have since been redesigned as LastyGhost characters.
*The novel was on hiatus between May and June 2023 due to LastyGhost attempting to focus on Fugitive Eagleton.
*Daydreaming Birdie was added to the credits on Quotev from Chapter 2 onwards.
*Bunsen and Nuzzie are the only CRiTORA of the main seven characters that are mentioned in the story; none of them make an appearance.
*The Mighty Trio and Galileo are named after famous astronomers. 
**Kepler is named after Johannes Kepler.
**Isaac is named after Isaac Newton.
**Caroline is named after Caroline Herschel.
** Galileo is named after Galileo Galilei.
*In honor of the story's release, LastyGhost composed a Neo-Remix of Imagine Dragons' Birds. It was released along with Chapter 10 and is intended as a resume of the story.
*Throughout the story, there are several mentions of a CRiTORA who ended up in the Abnormal District prior to the events of the series. In the Requiem chapter, this is revealed to be Queen Creatophage.
*This is LastyGhost's quickest full-length novel so far, being completed in 8 months, counting breaks.
