Line #1 Trivia/Canaan

2	* Synesthesia is a phenomenon where one kind of stimulus leads to another. Synesthetic people can perceive sounds as colors or feel that numbers have a certain texture or personality. It has absolutely ''nothing'' to do with perceiving people's state of mind as colors, which is quite impossible in the real world.
3	** Actually, seeing auras around people can be a type of synesthesia. It could be caused by the brain interpreting emotional cues as colors (more on the ideiosthesia side of synesthesia) or interpreting pheromones and other variations of scent cues the body gives off depending on the emotions one is experiencing as color. There's also two flavors of synesthesia, projective and associative. One with the first type would see the color around someone while the second type would simply associate the color of their mood with the person.
4	** Outside of that, Canaan does make repeated mention of "scents", so it could be that she has a smells -> colors variety... and has a nose like a bloodhound.
5	** Also, synesthesia doesn't work the way it is shown in episode 10! It is a process inside our brains, so if some device (see below) does cancel out all noise, it won't reach the synesthesiac person's ears, ergo, there is no way it can be converted into any other sense and [[spoiler:do any damage, if it's Hakko's voice]].
6	** The explanation for all of this lies in the fact that Canaan's synesthesia is ultimately born from the Ua virus. Considering the other "Borners", there is no real reason why it would have to follow the same rules.
7	* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control Active noise control]], which cancels out all sounds, is a realistic notion, except that to cancel sounds in the ''entire'' facility, as shown in episode 10, it'd have to consist of thousand of sound detectors and hundreds of anti-noise generators scattered all over the place. And a huge mainframe to process the noise data in real time.

11	* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: The original ''VisualNovel/FourTwoEightShibuyaScramble'' the anime is based off of wasn't released in English until 2018, nearly 10 years after its Japanese release.
12	* NoExportForYou: The light novel/manga adaptations are not available outside of Japan/Asia.
13	* TheOtherDarrin: Most of the characters originally from ''VisualNovel/FourTwoEightShibuyaScramble'' are not played by the actors from the game’s live action scenes, and are instead voiced by professional voice actors.
14	** Maria is voiced here by Creator/YoshinoNanjo, whereas she was played by Narumi Konno in the original ''428'', though Konno does reprise the role of Maria’s twin sister Hitomi for a brief voice cameo.
15	** Takuji Oyama played Kenji Osawa originally, but he is voiced here by Creator/AtsushiOno.
16	* PlayingAgainstType:
17	** Creator/MaayaSakamoto is '''not''' known for playing characters like Al Sheya.
18	** Liang Qi is one of the few villainess roles for Creator/RieTanaka, too. Same with Creator/JessicaBoone.
19	* RoleReprise:
20	** Besides Canaan, Alphard, and Siam having the same voice actors they did in Canaan’s bonus route from ''428'', Narumi Konno voices Hitomi Osawa in the final episode, having played both of the Osawa twins in the live action scenes of the game but otherwise replaced by Creator/YoshinoNanjo as TheOtherDarrin to voice the animated Maria. Ikkyū Juku also reprises the role of Teruo Toyama from the game.
21	** Although Fumio Kitagami was the live actor for Minoru Minorikawa in ''428'', Creator/KenjiHamada voicing him in the anime is actually role reprise, as Minorikawa was an AscendedExtra PromotedToPlayable in ''428'' who originally debuted in animated form in an earlier Chunsoft game from 2004, ''3-Nen B-Gumi Kinpachi-sensei: Densetsu no Kyoudan ni Tate!'', a tie-in game to the ''Series/KinpachiSensei'' series.
