Key differences from light novel
In the light novel,
 * Two mobile phones and laptops' cameras were deployed in the bath by Sora to peep on Stephanie, instead of just one mobile phone which Shiro blocked with her elbow. Shiro did not block Sora's cameras in the light novel, but later discovered the video of the two girls in the bath on Sora's PC.
 * Stephanie's home is located at the third district of the western region in Elchea, whereas the anime depicts her home to be within King City.

Trivia

 * The natural lingua franca for the Imanity is literally named Imanity-go (Imanity language).
 * The menacing look the siblings gave is a reference to Jojo's Bizarre Adventures.
