**Will we see more schools with other Kings and Queens?**

I haven’t really thought about that. I mean there are Turf wars, where the strongest from each school compete against each other. There may be more schools depending on whether or not I want to expand on that.

**Is there a certain percentage you have for people who don’t have powers? In the whole universe.**

There will always be certain people born with mutations where they weren’t born with powers or don’t have powers. It’s going to be a really small percentage though. In terms of tiers of separation:

Low tiers would take up about like 30%, mid tiers take up about like 60%.

**You’re already at 90, so...**

Oh really? Oh okay sorry, 30, 50, and then

**You’re already at 80...**

Okay, lets start from the beginning. I think I got my numbers straight.

So it would be 30% low tiers, 50% mid tiers, 15% elite tiers...2% high tiers, and then everybody else.

SYFY Fireside Chat [13 Apr 2018]

**Regarding the percentages of the population of low, mid, elite, and high tiers, they only add up to 99% and was wondering what the 1% are.**

*(\*Unknown)* “The percentages aren’t correct, the ones I did.”

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**How would the military work? Would they rely on their abilities for battles mostly or would they still heavily use machine warfare like tanks, guns etc? (maybe even a tank with an opening for to shoot missiles or energy beam like Blyke?)I'm assuming if it were to rely on abilities then they'd be trained excessively to improve their mastery/only elites+ or something allowed in for the most part-- sorry this is really long ily!!!**

*@mehin* good questions, stay tuned! :D

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Do pets in the unOrdinary Universe have abilities like the Humans?**

*@\*Stern Look\** Pets don't have abilities from what I know. I think that would probably be excessive xD

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Does unordinary's world have any major religions? Would they operate like some religions in our world or would the existence of abilities lead to religion being less powerful?**

*@macaroni-beats* religion isn't one of the themes of unOrdinary

**In-universe, is there a person with a fully maxed out stat pentagon?**

*@Bibbooq* I'm sure there is.

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Hey Uru-chan-sama, my question might be a bit of a weird one, but I ask this from the perspective of a roleplayer. What is the role of weaponry (Firearms, as well as things like pipes and bats) in the world of unOrdinary? Are they non-existent, used by low-tiers, etc.?**

*@Andy* For now, weaponry won't play too big a role in the story, but they would give the user a significant advantage in a fight.

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Do characters with actual disabilities like blindness, deafness, and the like exist somewhere in the unOrdinary universe? If so, what kind of treatment would you think they’d get; regardless of their ability or ability level?**

*@NikkiBunny816* Yes, I'd say probably similar to John. I don't think we can overlook their ability though .. I feel like how they're treated would also heavily depend on how strong they are.

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Can people in wellston die from being pushed to hard and not getting treatment?**

*@Rechard* Yes.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Sep 2019]

**What would you say is the percentage of cripples in the world of unordinary?**

*@arctic6* Very small. I’d give it below 5 percent. Wait, that doesn’t make any sense though. Let’s just say that the amount of- I don’t have an answer….

**A very small amount?**

*@arctic6* Yeah a VERY VERY VERY small amount(laughs).

**I've been curious about higher education in Unordinary we know that some of the main cast are seniors but we haven't see them mention about applying to college or anything like that. And, if there is colleges in Unordinary do some schools admit people by there ability level futher enforcing the heirarchy or something else entirely?**

College/Universities exist, but I'm focusing more on plot and character development than their education. Ability level plays a huge role in college admissions, but intelligence is also considered

**How many god-tiers are out there in the UnOverse? Particularly ones as strong as Sera or John? I've been imagining them as the .01% but 750000 people that powerful still feels like kind of a lot.**

hard to give exact percentages, but they're very rare. I imagine 1:100000. Outside of the main cast, how many god-tiers have we seen?

Reddit AMA [Oct 2020]

**in unO, are there media and regular activities centered around abilities since they are such a huge focus in this world? (ex. ability training summer camps for children, ability centered classes in university, ability centered doctors)**

*@annalycheee* not at the moment

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Jun 2021]

**In unOrdinary, is the country they live in like a “knockoff” United States or is it a completely separate made up country? (I’m thinking this because “New Texis” and “New Bostin”)**

*@JoseCasserole* the cities are knockoffs, but the country isn't the US

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Jun 2021]

**Since there was a French shirt with Lamé, can we assume that there are/were countries like France?**

*@Kyrronium* You could assume that there are other countries.

**That languages exists, but the countries possibly don’t?**

*@Kyrronium* Right, the languages exist.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Does UnOrdinary have a currency that they use,and if so what is it?**

*@Kyrronium* Right now they use the dollar. I know that two days ago I answered that it wasn’t supposed to be the knock-off of the US. It’s very loosely based off of the current world

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Are the technologies present in the unO world based, even loosely, on abilities? If yes, is this known or common knowledge?**

*@Phiso* I can’t answer that question, sorry.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Do people still need to get glasses if they have impaired vision, or are there special strong healers that can heal your eyesight?**

*@Sheldon, Lawrence - Room 208* It’s kind of similar to what we have now, where it’s more of like a choice. If you want your eyes healed you can get them healed. We have lasik. If you don’t then you just wear glasses like Keene or the headmaster.

**In Unordinary world, what type of movies are popular?**

*@Tears Dissolved* OFR-Ice is pretty big in the unOrdinary world

Discord Interview [Dec 2017]

**With which human quality/values/(anything else) would you compare or identify the "ability" (I connect it with money and wealth(?))**

Yeah, wealth is a good comparison. You ability in unordinary determines your status, just like how your wealth is directly correlated to your power in the real world. One of the major themes in unordinary is power distribution - exploring how different types of people handle themselves when an immense amount of power is given to them. What is the best way to use your power? There isn't really a correct answer.

Instagram Interview (Part 2) [June 2019]

**Regarding the setting, high levels are mentioned to provide greater value to society than low levels but how is this accomplished when most people seem to possess mainly combat abilities ?**

*@scherbler* there are many non-combat abilities as well. they haven't been shown yet

**Are university admissions in UNO also based on ability level or grades?**

*@Moss* Admissions are based off both ability and grades, but lean towards ability.

**Do some people marry each other just for abilities so that their child could possibly have a very powerful ability(is this possible)?**

*@Bluepeg* yes, there are definitely people who marry just for powerful children

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**How does Physical Education work as a subject in the unOrdinary universe’s schools?**
*(In the episode where John received his school grades, he bumps into Arlo for the second time and drops his school papers on the floor. There was a panel focused on John’s grades and the subject “Phys. Ed” was one of those subjects graded on that paper. [He apparently got a B- in it.] Since they are all used to “Physical Education” everyday; getting into fights and combat dealing with physical components, are they graded based on that, or do they do Physical Education classes like real-life schools normally do?)*

**Do the schools in the unOrdinary universe have proms, or any parties/events similar to that at end of each school year? Or, do they just end their school year with a Graduation; just like what was shown when Rei graduated in one of Arlo’s flashbacks with Rei?**

*@NikkiBunny816* Haven't thought too much about Phys.Ed, but i think it would involve using abilities to some degree. “I was thinking of having those[ability sports events] but then the story turned gloomy.”

I think there are proms and party events at school. The flashback between Rei and Arlo took place right after the graduation ceremony where they spoke in private

**How does everyone make money and stuff like that? I don't know if it’s like communism or something like that?**

*@Rechard* (laughs) No, the students get their money from their parents and their parents get money from working.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Sep 2019]

**Why is the philosophical belief in UnOrdinary the way it is, and if you could choose a different path for the story to go on, what would it be?**

*@Assassin\_Auditore* unordinary world is the way it is because it's based off a person's strength, i don't think i would've changed the story in any way

Discord Interview [Apr 2020]

**Is murder and assault a serious crime in unOrdinary? I was just thinking about how people get constantly beat up in high school and was wondering if that carries on to adult life**

*@WhaleyBoi* murder is a crime for sure

**Does your power level or tier affect the kind of job you can aspire once you graduate from school in Unordinary?**

*@4Sun* it definitely can

**Hi Uru, thanks for making such an extraordinary webcomic, my question is that: what do you think of all the hypocrisy that is shown by the characters? Is it a criticism of the hypocrisy that exists in society? Sorry for my bad English and a loving greeting from Argentina!**

*@ElJuancho* Your english is great! it's a reflection of how most people in real life can be hypocritical. sometimes being hypocritical can also be a sign of growth

**I've been wondering if mental disorders or illness are acknowledged in the world of uno also I remember blyke calling John a psycho so maybe only some are acknowledged.**

This is a subject that isn't prioritized in the world of unOrdinary. Much like IRL, a few years ago, mental illness wasn't a big topic of discussion - many are still uneducated about it today.

Reddit AMA [Oct 2020]

**Hi uru, first off I just want to say I'm happy you're on break. I know you've faced a lot of negativity over these past few months over some decisions in the story but I hope you don't let that get to you as a person.**

**I was just wondering in regard to the world it's the low-tiers that do 'dirty jobs' right? Like hard labour or prostitution or wet nursing? What is the standard job for a low or mid-tier?**

*@lis* Thanks! It's similar to our world. You can assume that lower-tiers generally have lower income jobs... but their jobs also depends on what ability they have

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Jun 2021]

**If there was a high tier in a school that didn't have an ability that was related to fighting or strength (Like Keons ability or the lie detector ability) Would they still be respected as a high tier in the school? Or would they be treated like a low tier because they cant fight back with their ability.**

*@tea bag (ㆆ\_ㆆ)* i think they would be able to use their ability to control the others one way or another

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Jun 2021]

**What does the entertainment industry in Uno look like? Is it filled with high-tiers? Do artistically skilled low or mid-tiers have their own subcultures which they express themselves by like irl people do?**

*@lis* this is a good question :)

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Jun 2021]

**Is turf wars just for high school?**

**Wellston is the best school in the region, but how about nationwide? Do other schools have students stronger than Seraphina?**

*@Todokanai* There are many schools in the nation that are just as strong as Wellston. The cap for ability level is 10, and Sera is and 8, so there is potential for strong

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Are there other school clubs or school organizations operating in the background of Wellston aside from the Royals and the school’s newspaper [Wellston Weekly]? If there are, then do these clubs need some kind of requirement; skill for the club, ability, and ability level? One club I’m most interested in is if there’s a sports club—or sports present in Wellston in general.**

*@NikkiBunny816* Yes, there are a lot of things going on in the background that most schools would have. For example, chess/boardgames, and I'm sure sports as well. They are not relevant to the story, so I haven't really shown them

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**How many students are in Wellston? What's the population like?**

*@Evie Church『Exempt from Taxes』* Probably at least like 500. For that one for now, they’re the same as what I put them in the past again. Just know that, I think that the most important thing is that high tiers are really really really really rare.

**I was wondering how dorms work? We never saw Remi, Cecile, or Arlo's roommates before, but other people like Blyke and Sera have them, so I was wondering how the dorm system works?**

Higher ranked students generally have singles. Sera opted for the double.

Arlo lives off campus in his apartment (like john did before)

**How old is Wellston as a school?**

*@Kyrronium* Uhm.

**Can you give a clear estimate or range?**

*@Kyrronium* It’s fairly old and established.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Will the Wellston top 10 list appear again soon?**

*@pixarlamp* You can probably put it together yourself. I think a lot of the top students have already been revealed. I think you can probably have a pretty good idea what it could consist of now. But maybe I’ll make one eventually again.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Are there parts of Wellston Private High School we haven't seen? Like a gym for PE or a great hall for gatherings?**

*@BlueCramberry64* Yeah! Definitely.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Do schools in the uno world have fan clubs of the Royals?**

*@hkadowaki41* I would say that maybe like the lower districts probably, but I want to say that in Wellston not really because education is something that they kind of prioritize. Everybody has their own thing to do, I don’t expect that many people to make fanclubs. They might look up to people, certain people, but I don’t think they would [have] fan clubs.

**But they do have normal extracurricular clubs right?**

*@hkadowaki41* Yeah they do, like the safe house and the press team and stuff like that.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Hi uru-chan I was wondering if it is standard to have press leader be decided by the king or is it just cause seraphina is lazy of ace duty's.**

*@Sigma0* That’s kind of a two part question. It’s standard for two people to face off when they have a disagreement. In that scene where Arlo kicked Cecile out, Cecile charged Arlo and got beaten. That’s why she has to listen to him. As for the whole Ace thing, I just wanted to clarify that Ace is not an official ranking in school. The rankings consists of King, Queen, and Jack, and then your healer. Ace is something that the students made up or that the school made up because Sera is clearly the strongest and they didn’t want to leave her without a title. But she’s not responsible for anything. She’s not responsible for Turf Wars or anything like that. I know there’s a lot of confusion on that.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**Do high-tiers have a limit for the number of classes they can skip? Do the teachers and headmaster just not care? Then by this logic, are high tiers not required to go to school?**

*@stepapa* High tiers are allowed to skip classes as long as your grades are good. You’re allowed to skip classes whenever you want as long as your grades are good. I guess most of the main cast are all very intelligent. They all get really good grades. John is the exception. He skips class because you know...he almost got held back.

Discord Interview (Part 2, Voice) [Jun 2021]

**So it seems like a lot of social standing and structure is definitely based off of how powerful people are so does that mean that for a lot of government stuff, is there like presidential Turf Wars or like how does that work?**

I haven’t really thought about that. I’ll let you know when I come up with something.

SYFY Fireside Chat [13 Apr 2018]

**How are the ministers chosen in the World of unordinary (only ability level matters?)?**

As you probably have guessed, it mostly depends on your ability level. Anyone with level 4+ is a valid candidate, but those at the very top must be a high-tier and have high intellect. But if you're a mid-tier or below, you can forget about even trying D:

Discord Interview (Part 1, Text) [Sep 2019]

**Are the higher ranked people in the government full of powerful people..? Or how about the president is he like mega strong?**

*@Indigo* I don’t know if there’s a president...but yes they are very strong. You have to be very strong in order to be high up in the government. It’s not solely based off your intellect, you have to be powerful and smart to be part of the government.

**My question is what exactly was John’s readjustment like? We know in chapters 104-105 parts of what Keon did to him but what was life like for three months. Did John ever leave that room/ cell and did he interact with other kids that could of been in those classes along with him. Was it similar to what being in jail might be like?**

Re-adjustment class is not like jail, more like a boarding school and kids are forced to listen to their instructors.
