The Blade Miza’s talking to addresses her as “Sister”. Going by the later admission that all of the Blades were Miza’s relatives, I’m pretty sure she was literally that ghoul’s sibling.

Shousei’s wordplay when Naki meets Miza hints at his studious personality. Shousei says, “He’s talking about orientating, bro.” Naki: “Coeducating?” Shousei: “No, that’s a fun activity when boys and girls study together.”

When talking about his reason for joining the White Suits, Shousei says “惹かれる”, which, when said about people, means “drawn to”, “attracted to”, “captivated by” (usually romantic/sexual attraction). I’ve talked about LGBT representation in Ishida’s works before, so I’ll just leave it here.

When Shousei says, “We brothers might be fools”, he uses the specific word for the tarot card The Fool.

On seeing Yasuhisa Hanbee notes that she gives off a “miasma” and “a ghastly aura”. Miasma is a very specific word; Kurona could smell rotting if she didn’t eat Nashiro as I originally thought but perhaps sewed (part of?) her to herself or otherwise still carries Nashiro with her.
