Trivia

 * While at Café Donguri, Hokuto discusses with Hayate and Nagi that the grand prize from the drawing event at the Ginnan shopping district spring silver festival would be a "HD DVD player for a 360". This is a reference to the discontinued HD DVD Player accessory for the Xbox 360.
 * This is the first time in the series that Hinagiku uses her alias of Silver Red.
 * After hearing Sliver Red's voice, Hayate notes that Sliver Red's voice sounded like Ya**erman No.2 before noting that it sounded more like Boo*a. This is a reference to the two characters Ai Kaminari (Yatterman No.2) and Boota who appear respectively in the series Yatterman (2008) and Gurren Lagann
 * Additionally, the seiyuu who voices both Ai Kaminari (Yatterman No.2) and Boota is Shizuka Itō who voices Hinagiku in the Hayate no Gotoku! anime series.
 * The production workers in this chapter are seen wearing masks that resemble the character Kaonashi (also known as No-Face) who is from the movie Spirited Away.
