Trivia / Magical Girl Raising Project

• Casting Gag:
  • Inori Minase voiced Swim Swim, representing a typical example of her sidekick-heroine, who is deeply in love with her companion and has a typical for her heroines large breasts and a soft personality, however, she later betrays and kills her "love" interest, becoming a cold-blooded sociopathic killer and as the series develops, actually becoming The Heavy of the first arc.
  • Saori Hayami is already the second time playing a feminine girl, whose love interest is her guardian and regularly declares his willingness to protect her. Moreover, even the scene with their exposition and romantic embraces of a very hike in both titles.
  • Megumi Ogata has previously voiced another character associated with plants. Particularly, roses.
  • In the Dub, Madeleine Morris voices a Kyubey Expy. Take a wild guess who voiced the original?
  • This is not the first time that Yumi Uchiyama plays an older-sister-like magical girl. Also in the same series, Yumiri Hanamori would play another magical girl who also dies.].
• Crossdressing Voices: In both versions of the anime, Souta is voiced by a girl, even when he isn’t La Pucelle.
• Sequel Gap: The first season of the anime finished in December 2016. Six years later, it was announced that a second season would be produced at an unspecified time.
• Uncancelled: After the first season finished airing in late 2016, the anime director, Hiroyuki Hashimoto, stated there hadn’t been any decisions on whether a sequel would be given the greenlight. Over six years later, on January 2023, it was announced that a second season would be produced.
• What Could Have Been:
  • Lapis Lazuline was supposed to be the daughter of Calamity Mary, but it never became canon.
  • Pfle was meant to be an antagonist and die during Restart, while Lapis was meant to survive. Since many of his friends told him how many different things he could with Pfle's character, he let her live and killed Lapis instead.
  • Reina Kondo was originally supposed to provide the voice of Shadow Gale for the reading drama Double Shadow, but had to be replaced by Mikako Komatsu due to Kondo going on hiatus for health-related reasons.
