** Nano Eiai is a genius all around, so being good at numbers is part of the package. In particular, she can write Pi to an amazing number of digits and does so by memory as she uses it as a technique to keep her focus.
** Subverted with Suu Hifumi. While a NumberObsession is a trait that often overlaps with being good at math, Suu is incompetent at it precisely ''because'' of her love for numbers. She regards numbers as {{Companion Cube}}s so, to her, 1+1 should equal 11 because it's a pair of ones coming together.
--->'''Suu:''' They say 1+1=2 but I have no idea why! 1 is 1 and 2 is 2! They both have their unique identities...! So if 1 and 1 make 2 what happened to the 1s?! Where did they go?! That's just... dehumanizing numbers...! Turning them into ''things'' to be thrown away for your calculations!
