Interesting things, facts and theories about the World and the Characters of the "Fujiedaverse"

Massive Spoilers! Warning!

- Under Construction -









Fujieda-sensei himself said in his ask.fm, as an answer for a question if his Manga happens in the same world?, that they are.

Question: 藤枝先生の作品って世界観共有だったりするんでしょうか?飴色紅茶館にアリスカルテットとかは出てましたが…

Fujieda-sensei's answer: そうです。大体全部つながっています。いおの様も飴色に来ますし40年後には学園都市に飴色紅茶館の支店もあります


Rough Translation:
Q: Fujieda-sensei's works happen in the same world, yes? Where among other things, the Amber Teahose and Alice Quartet are...

A: That is right. Approximately all tied together. Iono-sama comes to the Amber Teahose, as well as 40 years later there is a branch store of the Amber Teahose in the College town.



The stories of Fujieda Miyabi-sensei's mangas mostly happening in Tokyo Metropolis.
    - Alice Quartet is in Musashino City
    - The Amber Teahouse is in Murasakino City (I think it's called Yukarino City in the original Japanese version of the Manga, but I'm not sure)
    - Misaki High School Academy in Tokyo Bay, on an artifical island, which is the location of Tokyo's ward 24, the Misaki Ward.

Most of the happening are somewhere around these places/cities/districts.
    - Exception is the 0th chapter of Iono Sama Fanatics, which is happens in "Country C.", the Kingdom if Iono-sama.
    - and the Tokigami Montain and it's Shrine, in Kotonoha no Miko to Kotodama no Mahou to



Shops and facilities:
    The verse is full with shops and other facilities. Alice Quartet and the Amber Teahouse are nearly always appears in the mangas.

There are a few also maybe worth mentioning:
    Dorikoro (a restaurant - fast food or family restaurant - I'm not sure which) - it was the hangout spot of Sarasa, Hinoka and Haru, before the Amber Teahose was opened.

    Yukarino Books (a shop at the Park Street) - not because the shop itself interesting, but somehow the name "Yukarino" appears other times too.

    Hotel Roy[something] (probably "Royal") - The hotel Iono-sama and her companion stays
      and it's "Heavenly Phoenix Feathers Trace The Sky Room" - where is the "First Iono-sama Sobame Audition"'s 3rd. round was held


    Seraph (Jewellery) - found in Roppongi Hills - The're known by their matching pairs of jewelery - Seriho bought the matching pair of rings for herself and Sarasa here - logo: an egg with angel wings



Other Notable Places:
    The pond, Benten-sama* was enshrined in - It's said that if a couple rides the boats a this park, they'll end up separating. Apparently it's because Benten-sama is enshrined in this pond, and she gets jealous of the couples. The ponds' lake spirit is a prankster.

    *Benten is the goddess of everything that flows: words (and knowledge, by extension), speech, eloquence, and music. She's one of the Seven Gods of Fortune.


The Schools, that mentioned by their name:

    Misaki Academy - (the school in Twinkle Saber Nova) (美咲輝学院 Misaki Gakuin)

    Murasakino School of Confectionery Arts
    (Sarasa will attend to this school, after she graduated from highschool)

    Murasakino Women's University
    (Hachibe Eto attended to here, before she fell for Iono-sama, then, she requested a leave.)



Misaki High School Academy
    Built in Tokyo Bay, there lies an enormously large manmade artifical island.
    An academy and town make up the whole of it.

    The island is the location of Tokyo's ward 24, the Misaki Ward.
    About 10,000 people live on the island.

    The Academy is quite literally flooded with a large selection of clubs, groups, and organizations.
    Firstly, Misaki Academy teaches every level of education including preschool, elementary, middle, high, and college level. It also has vocational school and training programs. The Academy's facilities include a library, gym, concert hall, resident housing, public facilities, and development institution. The students are provided with dorms in the residential ward. Along the island runs a private railway. In the end, more people from all around Japan flock to Misaki than even to places like the leisure establishment "Leviathan". With this, Misaki is called "Japan's strongest institute".

    But complete and varied facilities and organizations are not the academy's chief feature. The academy believes in letting students live their lives freely to their heart's extent. Thus, the academy's greatest characteristic is its traditional belief in "Free Will".

    At Misaki Academy, they believe that your imagination is the limit. The school stresses students' free will and helps every student realize their dreams. The nonsensical laws of the island hold no-one back.

    The true meaning of "Free Will" is taught in the curriculum. The school's ultimate goal is to become "Ideal" in the minds of everyone. Here, students can dream of the future and have a "Shield" in front of them, protecting them from risk and challanges along the way. Many dreams come true at Misaki Academy.

    The academy sports a remarkable amount of clubs the students can join.
    Each club is supported with enough equipment, and it is not a rare sight to see players on Misaki sports teams reach a level of joining a world ranking team.
    It can be said that the school's belief in "Free Will" is reflected the greatest in its clubs.

    However, the school is not without its problems.

    From time to time, strange clubs claiming their "Free Will" emerge.

    This is the story of 2 peculiar clubs,

    And a story of justice.

    Introduction (page 8-9 of the 1st chapter of Twinkle Saber Nova)


Misaki Academy's Clubs:
    World Domination Club

    Ally of Justice Club

    School Counsel

    School store "Black"
      Crimson Princess Sunglasses (replica)
        These sunglasses are avaiable at the school store, "Black", for 1980 yen. The school shop (which is actually a club of it's own) sometimes manufactures replica goods of other club members. It is the pride of the club to be a long time seller of top fan items. But compared to the original items the original clubmembers wear, such as this one, they look like cheap knockoffs. The 2 Ha-chan mask fighters wore these in an attempt to conceal their identity.
      Crimson Princess Gloves (replica)
        Like the sunglasses, these are also sold at school store Black.
        Their price is 1480 yen. Surprisingly, the gloves are more than a cheap novelty item. They are popular among the student store workers who have a bike commute to and from school.

    Misaki News Club
      The Misaki News Club runs their newspaper of in-school events every day. The club is amazingly able to work every day and delivers completely accurate news.
      People in other places are able to read the paper too.
      With all the confrontations between the World Domination Club and Ally of Justice Club, the Misaki News Club is extremely happy to always have something to write about.


School Infirmary #4: Minato (The Headquarter of the Ally of Justice Club)
    There are 4 infirmaries located on the high school grounds of Misaki Academy. Kirise remodeled it for use for her Ally of Justice Club, but in doing so lowered it's usefulness as a medical facility. Why this has not angered any of the higherups is a complete mystery. Sick students just use the other infirmaries.

    "The Justice is in Your Heart!" - the code, that opens the infirmary's store's door (where the Active Dresses and such are stored)


Kyokusei
    Kyokusei are students at Misaki of the highest achievement.
    They are exempted from tuition.
    When they graduate, they pass their title to a younger student deserving of it.
    Kyokusei sometimes find themeselves transferred to other clubs.
    "Crimson Edge", "Blue Thunder", and "Violet Flash" are among the various titles a Kyokusei can receive.

    Proof of the Kyokusei
    A symbol carried by Kyokusei, as evidence to theit title. They come in various shapes and sizes. The Crimson Kyokusei Takei carries a lapel badge. The Blue Kyokusei Satsuki Amamiya carries a pendant. The Scharlet Kyokusei Shiki has his symbol sewn onto a glove. Exact details are unknown, but the color title a successor will recieve may be based on their hobbies.

    Gurenki (Crimson Princess)
    In the past, the strongest Kyokusei was given the title of "Crimson". If the Kyokusei is also a woman, the Student Counsel can further add the title "Hime", AKA Princess. If she can defeat all of the other Kyokusei in combat, her name is guaranteed to go down in school history, as well as be a popular target for the school shop to sell fan merchandise of her. At the present time, a student succeeded the Crimson name and recieved the title "Koujin the Crimson Edge".


Misaki Bus and Bus terminal
    Misaki is large, but so is it's bus route, which travels all throughout it. The Misaki Line allows students to travel to Misaki Academy. Students employed at Misaki can use the travel facilities for free, and allows students to walk in and see their friends off going to a club match or game, or greet them upon return.


some of the Misaki High School Academy's Cafés and Reastaurants:
    Ripple

    Tea House Ariel (喫茶アリエル Kissa Arieru)
      Located farther from the high school, it is a quiet place. The shop's inside is well lit and colored a very bright and cheerful white. There is only a small amount of pedestrian traffic outside the shop. The owner of the shop, a middle aged man, is known among the female students for treating and serving them well. There are quite a few orders for the "Hayana Special", and the owner happily sells it, even though he doesn't seem to be making a profit on it.
      The Hayana Special:
      A special menu item at the Ariel. Hayana came to the Ariel one day, requesting a parfait of epic proportions.
      Thus, Morinami came up with this as a result. Surely no one before had thought to order something as big as this.
      Morinami is proud of his creation, which is the size of 5 parfaits. The price, including tax, is 1280 yen, which he believes is quite reasonable for one.


    Three Ports Mitsuya

    Restaurant Maru

    Tea House QJ (喫茶室Q・J Kissashitsu QJ)
      A shop on a local restaurant street. (In Misaki Academy High School's Area 2)
      Among the teachers, it is said to have a classic feel and a pleasant atmosphere to it.
      The Tea shop actually arose from from the fashion brand, QJ.
      The shop also deals in accessories and other various goods.
      The QJ brand black tea is a highly recommended item from the menu.
      Menu:
      lunch special, omelett rice, cow's stewed tongue, chicken in sauce, QJ style carbonara pasta, eggplant and wasabi pizza, spicy chicken, japanese steak bowl, italian salad, QJ pudding, strawberry mousse, chocolate parfait.


    Cafeteria "October" (also called Restaurant October or Dinning Hall October as well) (十月 Juugatsu)
      A cafeteria on the first floor of Misaki Academy High School's firs building. It has been there since the constuction of the building, offering a place for students to eat lunch.
      The kitchen is employed with at least 100 workers, 5 of them are old ladies who are well known among the students. A recommended item is the October udon noodles (Kamatama udon (white wheat noodles)) for 110 yen.
      The order comes in only 10 seconds, and the taste is incredible.


    Culture Shock (軽茶食 Karuchaashokku)

    Moonline (食堂街 MOONLINE Shoukudoukai MOONLINE)

    Izuna
      A restaurant located somewhere in the College Area.
      They blend Japanase and French cuisine


    Misaki Donuts - "Misado" (ミサキドーナツ Misaki Dounatsu)
      Misaki Donuts started as a chain in Misaki. There are currently six new shops under constuction. While they are known for their taste, they also grab the hearts of students with their merchandise line. Their mascot, The Floating Kintoto is extremely popular. Their best selling donut the "Angel Kinto", is shaped to look like Kintoto.
      Kintoto:
      The mascot of Misaki Donuts. Using an angel flower as a base design, they came up with this white goldfish. The fact that it looks cute and harmless probably increased its popularity. It's image has helped make Angel Kinto a number 1 seller. People usually make a big fuss over the idea that you should eat the tail last.
      Menu:
      cinnamon, strawberry, french, old fashioned, chocolate custard, maple twist, vanilla cream, angel kinto ,- donuts


    (And other restaurants, what not yet appeared in the already translated version)


Active Dresses:

Active Dress - 001
Twinkle Saber
This is the active dress used by the Ally of Justice Club's first member, Hayana Suzunari.
It features huge sleeves, and two tail-like ribbons that trail from the waist. The word Twinkle means to glitter, gleam or sparkle.
If you think about how it was named, this one is probably Kirise's favorite.
The suit's main weapon is the Plasma Ribbon, which acts as a stun device.
The other weapon is the Spinning Hoop, a guard device comprised of nano machine fibers. It's main use is in deflecting enemy attacks. Thus, this Active Dress boasts a solid mix of offense and defense.
(page 183. of chapter 3.)
"The shining blade that will sever the evils of the school!"
It resist fire, water and electricity. It is highly versatile with great defense in any situation!
the high mobility is not made by the suit, it's Hayama's abbility

Active Dress - 002
Arc Saber
Satsuki Amamiya's Active Dress.
It features large shoulder guards and a holder on the back for weapons.
It was made from leftower parts of AD-001 Twinkle Saber, so it looks very similar to it. One can say it's AD-001's sister.
The word Arc comes from the phenomenon of arc lightning, and was named in the spirit of Tatsuki's other club, the Naginata Club.
The suit's weapon is a naginata with a built in stun device.
While normaly in "Stun Mode" it can be set to the higher frequency "Slash Mode" for devastating slash attacks.
While the suit is average in other prospects, it has superior offensive capabilities.
(page 184. of chapter 3.)

Active-Dress-X-Trial-001
紅 <CRYMSON>
This is the prototype for the active dress, the only one made in the "X Trial". It features bright crimson coloring. It has a powerful air about it, as it was worn by one who has aquired the title of "Hime". Kirise designed the original model Crymson Active Dress, but pictured here is a variation replica made and designed by Kuon herself. The name comes from the school of self taught kendo, also called kurenai, which means crimson. The suit's main equipment is two black colored bokuto (wooden swords): "Crimson Wind" and "Crimson Snow". This suit lacks the AD series signature built in stun devices, as the weapons are simple bokuto with no special features. Kuon made the two bokuto herself
(page 185. of chapter 3.)


VSS
    The Abreviation for the name of the World Domination Club battle equipment. What it stands for is unknown.
    "White Shine" Midou's VSS is called "Priest".
    "Black Emperor" Tokigami's VSS is called "Silence".
    VSS can have various abilities exclusive for its user, such as RPG video game-like abilities like creating a silhouette around it's owner.


Fairy Knights
    An animated program intended for kids.
    The evil Black Alfar clouds people's dreams with darkness, but is opposed by Midsummer Night Dream, a girl who inherited the spirit of the fairy queen Titania, and her 3 companions Alfar, Lusalka, and Selkie, who transform and fight to protect the peace of the world.
    A story told everywhere that captured children's hearts and became very popular. There are many licensed products, from pajamas to sausages.


Student Notebooks of Misaki High School Academy
    Not only is carrying it proof of being a Misaki student, it is a multi-purpose mobile computer acts as a key, an electronic dictionary, and mobile phone device all rolled into one.
    It also acts as a bank card at Misaki, so losing it would be very problemathic for it's owner.


Misaki Academy uniforms:
    School Uniform <Spring:1>
    蓮華 <LOTUS>
    This uniform is typicaly worn from winter to spring.
    It is a combination of a blouse and a one piece dress that can be coorindated to one's liking.
    For the tie, a ribbon can be worn in any style you like

    School Uniform <Spring:2>
    菫 <VIOLET>
    This uniform is typicaly worn from spring to summer.
    It combines a vest, skirt, and blouse to make one look sharply dressed, more so than the Lotus uniform.
    From spring on, many female students schoose this uniform.


Saotome Manaka-sensei
A yuri mangaka; she made the St. Lotecia Series, "Receiving a bouquet at Lotecia" - (the manga, appears in Otomeiro Stay Tune's 2nd chapter) is the firts volume of the series.
"Receiving a bouquet at Lotecia" appears in Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan "Voices" (chapter 12.) in the state of creation
Suzukuni Fumio and Sonomura Imari are the main characters of "Receiving a bouquet at Lotecia".
Saint Lotecia Academy: also mentioned as White School, - a white sanctum, with pure white uniforms, and pure white maidens
Saint Lotecia Academy's towers are assimetrical, - it maybe also has a meaning?
"In this school, girls who meet by throwing bouquets become "fiancés". And there is a tradition where every day they practice being lovers."
Most of the girls in the Amber Teahouse are fans of her mangas - including Saiyuki and Shuuri (in Blue Christmas)
Nanjou Shiiko is Manaka's editor


The Radio
Lotecia Radio: Stay Tune! - radio broadcast (probably weekly)
actually quite new, Arise said "this week is our secound time doing this..."
Arise and Hinako knows Saotome Manaka-sensei personaly
Arise and Hinako are the seiyuus of Suzukuni Fumio and Sonomura Imari of St. Lotecia series's drama CD

Nadeshiko Promotions

Tsukishiro Arise is attached to Hollyhock Productions


Lottery
Inukai Seriho won the lottery, that's enabled her to fulfill her dream; opening the Amber Teahouse.
And it's very likely that Sarasa won the lottery too, which enabled them, to save the Amber Teahouse.


Alice Quartet (or AQ for short)
    Alice Quartet's name - according to Suika - supposed to mean "The harmony formed between four different Alices"
    Fumi said, it sounds like "Ei Kyuu" meaning "Eternity", so she thought, they named it that way for good luck, as a sign their brand would go on forever...
    The other three Alices then note that "Somehow that scenario is starting to sound better."

    Store
      Alice Quartet is the brand name the four of them use when they function as a single unit, but a shop using the same name also exist.

      Found deep within the quiet neighborhood of Musashino, it is enveloped by an extremely calm atmosphere, perhaps because it used to be a church.

      This is all the more remarkable given the presence of the lively AQ members...


    Fountain
      As a result of its owner's preferences, the AQ store is located at the back of a remarkably large plot of land.

      In front of it stands a fountain, as well as other scenic set pieces included for potential use in photoshoots.

      According to Fumi, it's pleasant to soak there when it's hot out, but apparently they often end up closing the store at the same time.


    Inside the Store
      Since the AQ store was built by reconstructing an old, abandoned church, it has a slightly curious, L-shaped layout.

      The birdcage-style fitting rooms and the stained glass portraying the Virgin Mary give it a unique flavor, but the store has a mysterious ambiance that prevents one from sensing the height of its windows.


    Workshop
      Located on the second floor of the AQ shop and supplied with the designers' respective sewing machinery and fabric.

      It acts as a communal workplace for all four of them, but they can also partition off their areas with movable dividers.

      One wall is made up entirely of a big window, permitting them to look down into the shop interior.


    AQ WebSite
      AQ has an online store with information about their activity.

      Customers who are interested in their past and future progress are invited to pay a visit.

      http://www.moonphase.jp/aliceqartet/


AQ's brands:
    La Croix De Lune (Aihara Makino's)

    P's (Orikura Suika's)

    AQUA DROP (Towada Yuuki's)

    清-Saya- (Kusonose Fumi's)


Who wears them for example:
    La Croix De Lune - Ogasawara Komugi (from Fu-Fu)(!) wears this.
    Also note the chainsaw Shiratori Hinoka uses in DIY carpentery
    (still, I not fully understand this one)

    AQUA DROP - Amekawa Sumire has at least one of these clothes

    清-Saya-: Iono-sama has at leas one of these, since Fumi made her one in the Sobame Audition.
    Makino said to Tokigami Tsumugi that this would be look good on her, later they choosed something else instead, brobably something made by all 4 Alices


AQ's logo, appears in "Special Blend" (chapter 11.) of Ameiro

O spirit of this sacred mountain, the shrine maiden who dwells nearby is beyond the reach of the pure, invigorating air of the mountains at present. Cut off from that air, the flame of her life flickers. I require a means of keeping that light from fading. Comply with my incantation and reveal thyself! - in chapter 5.

*A Sea God


Tsumugi's "Words of Power":
"May my Destiny be to be with Letty." - chapter 1.
Asking one questinos, with another question "Would it be all right if we held hands?" 2nd question under it "Is it all right that I love you?" - in chapter 2.


Hollyhock crest
Blue crest - the Queen's formal garment. Worn on the Festival of Saints and formal ocassions. Nicknamed "Hollyhock crest".
This is the official garb for welcoming royal attendants. "Why, it is also worn, when formally proposing to sobame-chan."
It's handed down from Iono-sama's mother
It's real name is "La Armoiries de mauve"
It's strong while a ruler weat it - it has some futuristic science <-- (is there connection with Twinkle Saber Nova?)
Shinon Berukuru made it
It has an own room in the hotel apartment.


the participants in the Sobame Audition (round 2. - chapter 3.):
(there are 3 with falsified résumés)
    1st. Norishima Rerei - Yama-sama's attendant
    2nd. Shishio Teru - the fortune teller
    3rd. Tagoto Arata - the soba chef
    4th. Karasuba Yoruya - not her real name, she's the assasin Klausoraus, the "invincible sword"
    5th. Senoo Tomo - a crossdresser boy
    6th. Kusonose Fumi - a seamstress (one of the 4 "Alices" of AQ)
    7th. Oue Ruiko - AKA "Little Miss Late"
    8th. Kuragi Yasuko - Kass in disguise


the participants in the Sobame Audition (round 3. - chapter 4.):
    1ts. Senoo Tomo - special talent: female impersonation - disqualified (because he's a boy)
    2nd. Oue Ruiko - she said she had to leave early and went home - deserted
    3rd. Kusonose Fumi - special talent: she's a seamstress (she's one of the "Four Alices") - gone home (Because the Virgin Mary said so to her)
    4th. Shishio Teru - special talent: fortune telling - becuse what the stars said, she backtracked
    5th. Tagoto Arata - special talent: soba cooking
    6th. Karasuba Yoruya - special talent: martial art/fighting
    7th. Norishima Rerei - special talent: (we did't have a chance to know that) - kidnapped (by Klausoraus)



Iono-sama withdrawals
The Sobame has or makes incredibly amount and large variety of Iono-sama goods, while her highness isn't home, because they miss her.
(photos and movies, holograms, plushy Iono-sama dolls, renai games)
They has Iono-sama withdrawals.


Shishio Sisters?
Shishio Haru has a sister (She mentioned it in Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan)
It's very likely, that she's actually Shishio Teru (the fortune teller who appears in Iono-sama Fanatics)
Also, fortune-telling looks like a connection between the two, (Haru's House of Jinxes - (her website), and Teru's fortune-tellings)


The old couple
They appearing in the 5th chapter of Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan at first
"What that older coule was like, when they were young" - will we hear about them?


Shiratori Hinoka's girlfriend
Hinoka later starts to going out with a girl, (mentioned in Blue Christmas)
We know that she's not Haru, - also, Hinoka mentioned Haru is not her type, - but she still sometimes flirting with her -
"Hinoka is spending Christmas Eve with her girlfriend and Haru is getting together with some friends" (in Blue Christmas)
Actually, it's very likely she is the black haired girl from this picture - from Golden & Silver Tips - a not yet translated side story of Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan.


Washizuka Sayuki and Oguma Shuri
Sayuki (Sarasa's college roommate) and Shuri (new characters appears first in Blue Christmas)
They also become a couple


40 years?
According to what Fujieda-sensei said, in his ask.fm; 40 years pass between the story of Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan and Twinkle Saber Nova. In the 40th and 41th page of the 15 chapter (very last pages of the last chapter), Hayana and her friends visit the Amber Teahouse, and then we can see a scenery around the Teahouse. Sarasa and Seriho stands facing the other direction, so we can't see their faces, but they changed a bit (like hairstyle), the scenery around the teahouse also changed (a lot). It's pretty impressive I think, though I never questioned that Sarasa and Seriho will be togeher forewer.


Tokigami Sae and Tokigami Tsumugi... are they relatives?
Yes they are, - according to Sensei's ask.fm (that is, if I understand everything well, but I think, I did).
Sae is the granddaughter of Tsumugi x Reti-san!!!. Yes! Tsumugi x Reti-san has a child, thanks to that technology, which was mentioned invented in Iono-sama Fanatics.
We don't know anything (at the moment) about, who actually is Tsumugi x Reti-san's child (a daughter we think), and what she's like, we know only, that Sae has an ordinary father - so Sae hasn't got two mothers. And that Sae's father is Japanese, because Sensei said, Sae is 1/4 german, 3/4 japanese - she's 1/4 german, because of Reti-san is german, so all her other parent's must be japanese.
So, Sae has 3 grandmothers! And we know, 2 of them, and they are amazing persons!


Other interesting facts:

Hayana Fan Club - formed in Misaki Academy - they even have club member cards (bronze, silver, gold, platinum)

Hayana has a pet goldfish;
Wantan:
Hayana's pet, a pure white goldfish. By the way it swims and seems to float, and by its beautiful tail, Hayana gave it the name Wantan. Just like its owner, it seems to be able to eat great quantities of food without getting fat. Hayana says it looks like an Angel Kinto donut, but if you look closely, it doesn't quite exactly look like it.

Kusonose Fumi hears the voice of the Virgin Mary, and they often talk with each other

Letty-san is a regular at the AQ

AQ is one of the Amber Teahouse's fashion designers

The Amber Teahouse assisted with AQ on their two year anniversary

Letty-san and Makinon are the same age

AQ is sometimes gets mistaken for a real church.

Saotome Manaka-sensei has cat-ear reaction

Tsumugi's mother appears in chapter 5. (page 08) in a memory of Tsumugi's childhood

Book: The Prince and the Black Witch - Tsumugi read this book also when she was little

The Tokigami Montain God - she calls herself Tokigami Kinu, and states that she's Tsumugi's sister, when she meets others, not knowing, she's a god, Isuzu also calls her sometimes Kinu-sama

Iono-sama's mother - the previous Queen - was Japanese (She appears in memories in chapter 0.)

Hachibe Eto's ex-girfriend appears in a memory in chapter 1., page 33 - the reason why they broke up, also found there

Iono-sama has an "ahoge" ("idiot hair") - but it only moves rarely

Royal household management test among Sobames - Kass took this, to ensure she would always be with Iono-sama

Kass can read with incredible speed

Argent (Chibi Special Poilce of Iono-sama) - her manner in talk resembles Fumi's a bit of AQ.
She carries countless katana for fights (which makes her dress heavy)

Kurausorasu's real name is Corneille Nocturne

Kurausorasu wield "deser eagles" - a kind of pistol - kunai knifes, and probably something for close range combat too, and has superhuman strenght (she's an assasin after all)

Oue Ruiko AKA "Little Miss Late"'s dream: she wants to become like her grandma, marry normally, get older normally, and become a normal, old granny

Tagoto Arata' grandfather and father were soba cooks, her brother inherited the shop

Iono-sama's crest/coat of arms - appears in the cover of the manga, and in various things that belongs to Iono-sama (her ring, a wardrobe)

Iono-sama's ring is a high tech item, also has special ability:
Can create an energy wave (which looks like Iono-sama's coat of arm) what breaks things in it's short range.
But it can't be used very often.
The ring also has a name; it's called Aoi

Home country sobame later broke to factions; the "Devil Lilies Alliance" or "Kuroyuri" and "Princess Lilies" - actually their goal is the same, they want to see Iono-sama

In Iono-sama's home country, there are quite a few sobame couples, even Iono-sama recognizes their union. That's also, why she gave the OK to Tagoto and Freshé, for instance.
Aida and Shinon also one of thes Sobame couples
Yama-sama and Argent also becomes this (also Yama still a Tsundere).

Bercourt Vizen (the Head Sobame)'s jewel a bit resembles the jewels on the Hollyhock garb

The 12th chapter of Iono-sama Fanatics is happens 5 years after the other chapters
Yama-sama and Argent becomed Sobame couple (also Yama still a Tsundere)
Freshé went retired, left the work to Argent, and she (Freshé) and Arata has a child - with the help of a scientific breakthrough

Letty-san and Tsumugi also moved into Murasakino City (it's mentioned in Madrigal Halloween)

There’s an agreement between gods that means she (Kinu-sama) can’t interfere in matters not covered under her bailiwick. (said in Madrigal Halloween) - that's why Kinu-sama not stops the torrential downpour in Madrigal Halloween.

- But Letty-san stops it, the result is a pun; with her magic she turns the rain (ame) (雨) into candy (ame) (飴). Actualy it's a triple pun, since the Teahouse's name is Amber Teahouse (Ame-iro Kouchakan) (飴色紅茶館).

Nakanashi Matsurika likes games, she plays monster hunter for example - probably

According to Blue Christmas, if the hints are true, the next drama CD will be Valentine's day


Names origin?
According to the Japanase Wikipedia article about Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan, it seems, that all the (Ameiro) characters' family name has some relation with names of stars, constellations and other celestial things
Inukai Seriho - Canis Minor or Canis Mayor
Kotoori Sarasa - Orihime from Lyra
Shiratori Hinoka - Cygnus
Shishio Haru - Leo
Amekawa Sumire - Milky Way
Saotome Manaka-sensei - Virgo
Nanjou Shiiko - Southern Cross
Oguma Shuri - Ursa Minor
Washizuka Sayuki - Aquila

Also by the way; Deetolihi, Gretia's name is probably Dietrich, Gretia (AKA Retty-san) Dietrich sounds more lika a german name (she's from Germany) and Retty sounds like a more logic nickname for Gretia.
