[edit] Trivia

Because of an April Fool's joke, some poorly-informed RPGamer readers thought that Another Birth was another version of the Games through BlackRose's perspective. It was only after several emails that RPGamer put a note at the top of the page that it was a joke.
Early pictures of the cover for volume 4 put the title as "Surrounded", however the official title is "Quarantine" just like the game.
BlackRose and Kite switch dialogues at the beginning of Infection.
Mutation's opening sequences are moved to the end of Infection.
Minor in-game and Liminality characters (ex. Natsume and Sieg) are given cameos.
BlackRose learns what Orca looks like in a vision by Mia (PC).
