MISATO:“Oh, to the wedding?
I wore the pink suit for Kiyomi's wedding,
and the dark blue dress for Kotoko's
just the other day.”
WOMAN (OFF):“Synch rate is normal.”
UrsusArctos: As noted in the Character Name Origins page, Misato's name comes from Minako Narita's manga Aitsu. Misato Izumi from Aitsu is a girl who meets two high-performing upperclassmen (one of whom is named Ryoji Sawada, Kaji's namesake) and thus learns how to follow her dreams and dedicate herself to astronomy. I strongly suspect that Kiyomi and Kotoko are from Aitsu too but haven't been able to confirm it because it hasn't been translated into English.
