* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The naming convention for this series is an attribute followed by a optional, stereotypical name suffix for their gender. In the case the attribute is a foreign loanword, Crunchyroll tends to transliterate them, but some viewers prefers translating them as the meaning of these name have been clear. So there are names like Supoo/Sport-o and Bomuo/Bomb-o--and Galko would have met a similar fate (as Gyaruko) if the author didn't spell out his preferred title on every manga chapter.
