- The "Borrowed Advertisement Board" on the island reads "Attention, all: The hot-blooded, cold-blooded, steel-blooded contest of warriors that I, Yasuhiko Tarou, have organized is presently underway!" This is a reference to the character Oshino Shinobu from Nisio Isin's Monogatari series, whose nickname is "The Hot-blooded, Cold-blooded, Iron-blooded Vampire."
