*The two stars have spent over 1000 hours together filming.
*The figurine "Minna" costs 400,000 yen and [[Ito Atsushi]] accidentily broke one of its ears during a take.
*The opening anime theme was tailor-made for this drama by over 200 staff/cartoonists.
*The ending 1 minute theme by Sambomaster filmed in Akihabara took a whole night to film with over 200 extras.
*Over 35 actors/actresses were used for the forumers. Each internet scene takes approximately over 48 hours for a 7 minuted scene.
*Over 3000 props and figures were used. Densha's room alone used over 132.
*A PRIDE poster is seen hanging on the wall behind the bodybuilding otaku. In the special episode, PRIDE star Naoya Ogawa plays a bodyguard beating up Hanshin Tigers fan, Ushijima, in an alleyway.
