## Trivia

* If an option is not usable, trying to select it will usually result in the message "Do not choose!"
* Most of Viviana's attacks are sexually suggestive.

* It is unknown who or what a Konuyu (referred to in Protect's description) is. There appears to be several holy figures that aid Mario on his journey, including Supergod, superhuman (as seen on the right), and Konuyu.

* Carbon's last attack "Nuclear Noise" might be a reference to one of Utsuho Reiuji's spellcards in Touhou 12.3: Atomic Fire「*Uncontainable Nuclear Reaction Dive*」as when it is used, Utsuho begins to glow, while the screen flashes "*Caution!"* signs with a nuclear alarm sound playing in the background, as she proceeds to ram the player several times, resembling Nuclear Noise's attack pattern.
