* SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove: Despite the series being full of funny moments ''and'' deep, rich characterization, plus a loveable cast, Jeweler Richard has an absolutely tiny fanbase in English, although the books sell incredibly well in Japanese. Even the anime sold extremely poorly and is unlikely to merit a second season.

** English-speaking fans of the series tend to refer to it as "JR" as the full title is quite lengthy in both English and Japanese.
** Since Vincent doesn't appear in the anime, his existence is somewhat of a spoiler for the English-only fans, leading to him being called "Spoiler-Kun", "The Man Behind [spoiler] Bars", and "Jailed Weeb."

* PopCultureHoliday: Seigi's birthday on the 14th of May, Richard's on the 24th of December, and Jeffrey's on June, 25th. Henry and Tanimoto also have confirmed birthdays, but the fandom celebrates them less enthusiastically. Since the timeline of the series is pretty fuzzy, they're the easiest days to celebrate (and the author has written several "Day of Celebration"-type stories for them, seeming to enjoy celebrating the days as much as the fans).

This effect is so strong that the author wound up writing another story introducing the origin of the "Edward Baxter" name and giving Yamada a first name for the first time years after their one and only appearance in the main canon.
