Two asteroids were named this time relating to the manga: Quro, the artist, and Hoshizaki, the high school in the manga. They were discovered by the COIAS team, the app which allows users to help identify asteroids from images from the Subaru Telescope, and which itself is named after the manga. They have previously identified the asteroid Ao, named after the main character of the manga.
