* AppetiteEqualsHealth: An unfortunate real-life example. During the second season of ''Nizi Project'', Miihi – one of the youngest but also highest-ranked girls – began to noticeably lose weight. During the final episode as he inducted her into the group, JYP was caught on a hot mic telling her to eat more. She didn't, and by Fall 2020 she appeared dangerously underweight. Miihi soon deteriorated to the point JYPE put her on hiatus which led to her missing [=NiziU's=] official debut performances. Luckily for everyone she regained weight and her health. Fans need only note the wild differences in her appearance between her audition, the "Step and a Step" MV[[labelnote:*]] (she does not participate in the choreography and spends most of the video seated)[[/labelnote]], and anything from 2021 on after she recovered.

* [[PromotedFanboy Promoted Fangirl]]: Miihi is a ''HUGE'' fan of Music/{{Twice}}. That's the reason she auditioned for JYPE in the first place – she's one of the members who was already a trainee at the company before ''Nizi Project''. At least two of the songs she performed for JYP during ''Nizi Project'' evaluations were from TWICE's Japanese catalogue, and video of her meeting Momo and Sana for the first time in an early episode show her eyes almost literally sparkling. When quizzed by Lee Mujin on [[https://youtu.be/zHMkY37bxBg his webseries]] about who she admired, listened to, etc., she answered "TWICE" on almost every single question. Finally, when asked which JYPE senior she was most shocked to meet in person, she answered Tzuyu (her longtime TWICE bias).



** The second half of ''Nizi Project'' was meant to feature 14 girls, not 13. Competitor Suzu Ozaki (尾崎 すず) from Sapporo, who during the first half had outscored several girls that made the final lineup, withdrew from the show for reasons still unknown. Had Suzu gone to Korea, it is likely one of the winning girls – probably Ayaka, who barely made the cut to begin with (she ranked 14th) – would have been eliminated instead.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: As ''Nizi Project'' began production, Nina was living in Nagoya and missed out on ''two'' of the original open auditions. Determined not to miss out again, she travelled to the Sendai audition, about 400 miles away. Had she missed ''that'' one, [=NiziU=] would certainly look and feel a lot different. Nina herself, as noted above, already had a career so she likely would have kept acting.

* [[HeAlsoDid She Also Did]]: Nina was a child actress in Seattle before being scouted by Japanese company Amuse (the agency that manages Music/{{Perfume}}, Music/{{Babymetal}} and, at the time, Music/OneOKRock). She then took up acting and singing in Japan before jumping ship to JYPE.

Trivia for Music/{{NiziU}} and its members
----
* InTheBlood: Rima, who shares rap duties with Mayuka, is herself the daughter of Japanese hip-hop pioneer ZEEBRA (real name Hideyuki Yokoi [横井 英之]) and model Miwa Nakabayashi (中林 美和). Thus it's not too surprising she auditioned for JYP (twice).
* MeaningfulRename: When trying out for ''Nizi Project'', Rima used ''Yokoi'', her father's last name. However, in between the group's "soft" debut and "official" debut, her parents divorced and her mother gained custody. Since then Rima has used her mother's family name Nakabayashi.
* [[HeAlsoDid She Also Did]]: Nina was a child actress in Seattle before being scouted by Japanese company Amuse (the agency that manages Music/{{Perfume}}, Music/{{Babymetal}} and, at the time, Music/OneOKRock). She then took up acting and singing in Japan before jumping ship to JYPE.
