Trivia

 * Besides Kotaro, Yugiri and the mysterious man from the manga also know about the existence of this underground bar and frequent it constantly.
 * Unlike the other buildings shown in the anime, this bar does not exist in real life, and the closest thing is the “Suehiro skewer” restaurant in Saga City.
 * Although it does not exist in real life, that did not stop fans of the series from locating the location of the bar in real life, being on Matsubara boulevard next to Saga's castle.
 * The last chapter of the Gaiden manga reveals that the bar opened sometime between 1989 and 1994.
