Anthology Comic-based

 * Tokita Arumi is the only official manga artist to be part of the Anthology comic.
 * Due to him using his signature art style for his submission titled "μ's Hospitality Operation", the canonicity for both the chapter and the manga adaptation's continuity is debatable in comparison with other non-canon chapters from various artists.
 * Nakane Nata also worked on both the Anthology chapters and the Official 4Komas for Dengeki G's.
 * As of late 2022, Liella! has yet to receive their Comic Anthology series.
