* Yotsuba is the first sister to "change" her looks, and her sisters followed suit (starting with Itsuki) in middle school.
* Yotsuba's reason for her change in look is so that other people (originally Fuutarou) won't mistook her for her sisters again.
* Rena passed away sometime after her and the quintuplets' visit to Grandpa.
