lotta familiar surnames on that bonus list huh!
Yeah. Lot’s of… silly coincidences!
No, I kid- I’m not gonna claim that everyone listed there just coincidentally has a family name in common with the kids we have now. There’s lots of relatives! That’s why there’s so many like… classes that are just one person who seems to be a relative. I went through a big phase of trying to flesh out family lore a lot, so I made note of who has an Ultimate relative, and when that person would have attended HPA.
Worth noting, though, not all are parents! The one example we can reason out is with the Kobashikawa family, if you’ve kept up with every bit of Kobashikawa’s lore. That isn’t Kobashikawa’s dad that’s listed on the lore page, Mitsunori is Haruhiko’s uncle (on his mom’s side).
Also, all the classes on the lore page have like… a relevance. Not to BtBB, but to the cast. There’s a reason why those are the classes that have caught my attention and got fully fleshed out. Some of the characters on there are just OC ideas I had, who get noted down because the Lore page is a good way to organize my thoughts, but! Both 69-A and 58-A have some connection to something main-line. Again, no relevance to main plot, I really could explain what happens there. But I want to do things with those casts, so I’ll keep things quiet for now…
I wrote a lot of lore for 58-A cast last night, so they’re on my mind, whoops. But back to surnames, good eye! Some of the students would bring up their relatives in free time events, actually. Uehara would mention Yua the Acolyte, Higa would mention Tatsunori the Soccer Player, and… uhm… …I think that’s it! Can’t think of any other kids here who would possibly have reason to bring up their relatives. Haha. Maybe Iranami would bring up Chiya, the Clown. Worth noting, actually, she’s another one we can confirm isn’t a parent. We know Iranami isn’t a legacy student, so neither of her parents were Ultimate Clowns.
