## Trivia

* Her battle song genre is Pop.
* Her attacks are named after different mythical creatures and beings.
* Like Kanade, neither of Serena's battle songs have the name of her relic in the title.
* Much like her elder sister, *Maria*, Serena's attacks feature a cross (†) in the name.
* Serena is the only user who can pronounce the word "balal" correctly, instead of saying "baral" like the other Gear users. This is because her VA, Yui Horie, is experienced in speaking English.
