  • This short features the song "BOW" by Japanese rapper MFS, the first use of licensed music in a piece of Overwatch tie-in media.
  • Unlike in-game, There is no Fox Spirit when Kiriko uses Kitsune Rush on Akari and Mr. Yoshida.
  • When Kiriko uses healing ofuda, she puts it on the skin. Rather than fluttering to the other player.
  • Kiriko uses a healing ofuda on herself, which is unable in-game unless there is only a duplicate Kiriko.
  • This is the second time Pompamoto suffers a worse fate under a Japanese defender. First is in Dragons in which Hanzo shoots his phone then bangs on the metal shrine bell.
