**Larc suffered the same fate as her Female Rider predecessors and died (Tackle & Femme, although Tackle's status as rider is debatable).

*Larc's color scheme and use of a long-range weapon make her analogous to Garren, whereas Lance is analogous to Leangle and Glaive is analogous to Blade.
*Sometimes, Natsumi's Rider alias is spelled as Lark (due to the kana used) or L'arc (due to her name coming from a French term).
**"L'Arc" is French for "the bow".
