## **Trivias**

* MORE & MORE, DTNA, and YES or YES have 10 chapters in total; a prologue, 8 chapters, ending with the epilogue. The first letter of each chapter's name (excluding the prologue and epilogue) reads out its book title/initials: chapters 1-8 of MORE & MORE spell out "MOREMORE", Dance the Night Away has "DTNADTNA", and YES or YES' chapters spell out "YESORYES".
	+ Merry & Happy, the film short, would've had "MERRYHAPPY" as the chapter titles if it were made into a story.
* TWICE's DTNA was released on July 9th, 2018, which is **Kath Aguinaldo'**s birthday. TWICE's YES or YES was released on **Belle Bello'**s birthday, November 5. Ironically, Belle's character, Louise Hillman, is the main protagonist of DTNA, and Kath's character, Ingrid Yuikawa, is YES or YES' main protagonist.
* The setting of all the stories is in Serene Cove, a small fictional city where the characters live in. It's mentioned that Serene Cove is a place in the States, but it was never specified where it could be. Although this is the case, it was hinted once by Ingrid in DTNA's ending that the sun sets on the east by Serene Sea's horizon, which means they're in a state by the left side of the United States map, namely the outskirts of either Oregon or California.
* In the draft of DTNA, Hiro Takumi wasn't supposed to be an antagonist and will just be the victim, as portrayed in MORE & MORE. Eventually, writers decided Hera can't work alone, so Hiro was inputted as one of the antagonists in the final version of the story.
	+ In one version of DTNA, Hiro wasn't even supposed to make an appearance, and Hera was a last-minute addition.
* Ingrid Yuikawa is the only character to have more than one love interest. Though Rei Sotaro was explicitly shown to like Ingrid in YES or YES, it was already hinted in MORE & MORE and DTNA that they always have some sort of tension between them, and that both are often seen competing or bickering.
	+ **Stefen Sanchez**, a writer of YES or YES, says that Rei liking Ingrid was a last-minute addition, unbeknownst to his co-writer and Rei's counterpart, **Michael Williams**.
	+ In MORE & MORE, Briar mentions that she got jealous of Ingrid because of Brandon in the past. He admits that he finds Ingrid pretty, but he doesn't like her that way.
* A draft of YES or YES shows that the series will take a turn from murder-mystery and survival to supernatural, as Gavin, Briar, and Brandon will make an appearance as "ghosts" to help their friends out of Witchville Square after they died in Gloomwater Isle.
* In YES or YES while he's helping Nash and Chienna, Noah states he was once in juvie (juvenile detention center) while he was staying in Europe. He never specified how he got in, but he most likely rebelled against his father into going back to Serene Cove for Ingrid, but got caught by the police instead.
* In the character concept art Amree Aguinaldo is making, the character she likes the most drawing is Louise, since she likes her style. The character she most had a difficult time drawing is Rei because of his blazer and collar (Rei has a 3/4 view).
	+ Louise is the only character to wear a cap or a bonnet, although in one of the concept arts for Ingrid, Ingrid's wearing a baker boy's hat. This was scrapped for unknown reasons.
* Michael Williams admits that it was Amree who had the idea of the puzzles in YES or YES, despite not knowing what it's for.
* Every character's birthday is different from the birthdays of their counterparts, but Nash, Chienna, Eunice, and Zion share the same birthday with **Parker Trinh**, **Pauline Sui**, **Naomi Campbell**, and **Austin Dy** respectively.
* MORE & MORE took place in either June or July, and DTNA is either July or August, since Brandon mentions that it's been five weeks after the epilogue as a time-skip. YES or YES took place in late February, because we witnessed Twix's birthday happening on the story, which is on February 24th.
* The largest gap between stories so far is between DTNA and YoY. The authors' classes starting on August 2020 led the postponing of the story for at least the next 8 months. DTNA was released on July 31, 2020, while YoY was released on April 1st of the next year.
* The biggest ratio of the characters' nationalities is both American (Brandon, Louise, and Eunice) and Japanese (Ingrid, Twix, and Rei), followed by both Spanish (Ethan and Nathan) and Chinese (Chienna and Zion). Korean (Gavin), Canadian (Briar), Vietnamese (Nash), and Italian (Noah) are all tied.
