NotesEdit

• In the Japanese version, the date on Hirugami's phone indicates that the Black Jackals and Schweiden Adlers game took place on Saturday, November 17th, 2018. The English version mistakenly changes the date to November 11th. This is presumably an error since November 11th, 2018 was a Sunday.
