Trivia

 * International streaming version End Card: Hanpen
 * This episode marks Eri Irei's directorial debut.
 * Though her face is hindered, Yu Takasaki's childhood appearance makes a debut as one of her framed photos.
 * The girls' newly designed costumes are based on the ones they worn in Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS.
 * One of the costume club members resembles Dia Kurosawa.
 * According to director Tomoyuki Kawamura, the last scene of the episode was meant to use Naoki Endo's version of the own version of the "Sonata for Two Violins" music, though it went unused in favor of other BGM due to the former "sounding like a horror scene that would cause a knife wound".

Callbacks to previous Love Live! series

 * The end of the episode also shares some similarities to a scene where You hugs Chika in Aye-aye, My Friend.
 * Himeno being flustered to Karin teasing her with a hand-on-chin gesture is a reference to Riko's birthday message to Karin in the Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS game.
 * Kasumi does a photobomb similar to Kotori Minami.

Differences from the ALL-STARS Story

 * The episode is loosely based on SIFAS Chapter 15:
 * The main difference is the reason behind Ayumu's angry reaction towards Yu: in SIFAS, this was because the player character was too focused on the School Idol Festival rather than interacting with her and the group, while in the anime, the reason Ayumu is feeling jealous and angry of Yu is because of her close relationship with the rest of the club than her, especially with Setsuna.
 * Because of this, fans who watch the episode started to call the reaction in the anime, her "Yandere" side. (Though she was memetically depicted this way prior to the Episode's airing)

Continuity Notes

 * Rina's classmates from The Shape of Smiles (〃＞▽＜〃) returned to offer the School Idol Club their cookies shaped after them.
 * The Unicorn Gundam statue makes a cameo once again since The First Thrill, but this time in its Destroy Mode configuration.
 * Setsuna mentions that Yu's piano skill has been improved in Summer Begins.
 * During Ayumu's argument with Yu, she recalls her reason of becoming a school idol since The First Thrill.
