Trivia

 * At one point, Kagome Higurashi, Shippo, Miroku, Tessaiga, and Inuyasha, from the anime InuYasha (a series also made by Rumiko Takahashi) made a cameo appearence when Akane was having a nightmare about Hinako in which they are all dead.
 * Inuyasha, Shippo, and Tessaiga are located to Akane's left. Shippo's body is on top of Inuyasha's body while Tessaiga (in it's true form) is stuck in the floor, behind Inuyasha. Kagome is located to Akane's right and her back is facing the viewer. She is also seen in her normal, school uniform clothes. And Miroku is located behind Akane but can only be recognized by his sandals and purple robe.
 * Some of Akane's dreams are based off famous movies, such as Indiana Jones and Rambo.
 * During Akane's first dream during the big drunk party, Lum from the anime Urusei Yatsura (another Rumiko Takahashi series) briefly flies past the camera, along with the trademark flying noise from the show.
