Prologue

Blood Type

Virgo Personality

乙女座 - Otomeza: Virgo, the sixth astrological sign of the zodiac. They're often made fun of for being picky and critical, but they have other good traits. Naru has most of the Virgo personality traits (except for modesty).

Lin-san's Real Name

林興徐 - Lin Koujo: In Volume 5, Lin reveals his full name, but Mai and the others are unsure if it's just an alias like Naru used (Narumi Kazuo). This is why they discuss if it's his real name or not. Mai seems to think it is his real name.

Out Blooms Even a Flower

花も恥じらう - hana mo hajirau: This is an expression meaning either "(girl) who out blooms even a flower" or "even the flower will blush (before her beauty)." It's an expression used in reference to a young beautiful girl.

Ghost Cat/ Changing Cat

化け猫 - Bakeneko: Made of the words 化け(bake - to change form) and 猫(neko - cat), the most accurate translation might be "Changing Cat", but it's sometimes referred to as "Ghost Cat." A Bakeneko is a cat that has transformed into a yōkai (a Japanese supernatural creature). They have various abilities, one of which is shape-shifting into humans. The fish version might be called a Bakesakana.
