The Side B story reveals that [[spoiler:Che'Nya not only knew who the "fairy godmother" was, the whole ploy was actually ''[=Che'Nya=]'''s Idea to give Irene a chance to communicate with her nephew without fully compromising her presence.]]

This leads to the three of them eventually becoming the three extra members for the ramshackle dorm during the Magift Tournament instead of the ramshackle ghosts and additionally, friends to the 1st year group.
** Due to Yuu going shopping with Lilia for clothes and other necessities, Crowley is the one to deal with Grim instead when he invaded Ramshackle.
** Yuu stopping the fight before it officially started means that Ace, Grim and Yuu herself avoided the punishment of having to clean 100 windows while the circumstances that led to the chandelier breaking is something else.
** Due to seeing the mirage of a white haired girl wandering around Heartslabyul grounds, said girl helps them out together with Lando to escape from Riddle’s wrath at the first Unbirthday Party in the Heartslabyul chapter and eventually reveal Riddle’s past to them instead of hearing them from Chen’ya.

* DeconstructionFic: The story served as one to some aspects of the canonical Yuu's situation with a good dose of realistic consequences applied to them:
** In game, the canonical prefect is content to stay as the NonActionGuy for most parts. In ''black or white'', however, Yuu has to actually find a way to defend herself by taking Lilia’s offer to teach her how to wield the world’s mana because there is little to no stopping others from using magic on her even with the rules in place due to Night Raven College student body being majorly {{Jerkass}}es and she would get easily killed with magic due to being inherently magicless.
** Unlike several novelizations where the Yuu and/or Ramshackle Prefect of the story suddenly gained the ability to use magic, Yuu actually had to learn magic from ''scratch'' using the oldest known method possible due to being inherently magicless and it’s not something that her sixth sense can even cover.
** Unlike the game, Yuu gradually and completely lost trust in Crowley's authority over time due to Crowley reminding her of her previously apathetic teachers who were content to throw her under the bus because they couldn't bother to act as a proper teacher for a CreepyChild who can see the supernatural.
** Most fan-novelizations often make the Ramshackle Prefect be on the receiving end of a harem from the main casts. In ''black or white'', Yuu's awareness of her own weaknesses as a magicless individual made her far more guarded and hesitate to trust easily that it resulted in Yuu having a strictly platonic relationship with most of the named cast due to them noticing Yuu's guarded stance and those that actually ''do'' like her romantically can be counted by one hand.
