* [[Verbal Tic]]: Not a tic, necessarily, but Holo speaks rather uniquely - she uses a speech pattern based off of [[wikipedia:Oiran|oiran]] speech. So "I'm Holo the Wise Wolf" in normal Japanese would be ''watashi wa Kenrou Holo da'', but she says it ''wacchi ya Kenrou Holo ja''. In the English version, this comes out as a slightly more archaic speech pattern – certainly nothing like [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe]], but noticeable nonetheless. In a possible reference to this, volume three of the manga has an [[Alternate Universe]] bonus story in which she '''is''' an oiran. |

* [[Voices Are Mental]]: Holo sounds the same as a giant wolf as in human form, though with a slight echoing effect. Her head seems to be purposefully kept out of frame as she speaks to avoid the issue of how she can produce normal sound with a wolf's head. |

* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: The Milone and Medioh Trading companies in Season 1 are unbelievable. They make economics seem awesome; it's the Assassin's Creed of supply and demand. |

* [[Who Wants to Live Forever?]]: Holo is over 400 years old, and hates being alone after the humans she knows die: "Loneliness is a sickness that leads to death." She's traveling back to her homeland where more of her kind exist, but we don't know whether it's survived the years. |
