== Non-trope Trivia ==

* The anime has a continuation in the form of ''Poporaji'', a radio drama. Ohara, Asano, Momoi, Kadowaki and Kawasumi reprise their roles as Ai, Mai, Mii, Mea and Unagi respectively.

⚫

* The only episode in which a bath scene does not occur is episode 10. It does, however, have a shower scene, in case you were disappointed.

⚫

* Mai's character design is strikingly similar to that of Komugi Nakahara's from '' [[Nurse Witch Komugi]]''; true enough, both characters were drawn by Akio Watanabe (the former under the pen name Poyoyon Rock). Komugi also shares both her voice actresses (Halko Momoi and Jocelyne Loewen) with Mii.

** [[Masumi Asano|Mai]] and [[Tomoko Kawakami|Konami]] were previously [[A Little Snow Fairy Sugar|Saga and Sugar]]. No wonder they became friends.
