** An extremely short-lived one in the final episode: [[spoiler: Koba is about to confront Kimi about possibly being a god based on notes from Taka that he'd been given and mentally exposits about Kimi and her apparent mother, saying that she'd first arrived at Housing Complex C just about to give birth and with no idea who the father was, and then she shut herself up in her apartment and hasn't been seen since, apparently turning into the fetus-like creature that it's turned out Kimi calls Mommy. With the other Cthulhu mythos themes of the series in mind, this insinuates that Kimi's true backstory is similar to that of Wilbur Whateley from ''The Dunwich Horror'', who was the half-human offspring of an Outer God]]. However, [[spoiler: Koba never gets into the apartment to confront Kimi about it and the true culprits, who Taka meant when he said "that family," are the Koshides]].

** Advertising for the series before its airing says that, essentially, everything was fine and dandy at Housing Complex C "until ''they'' showed up" with attention being drawn to the new tenants, obviously insinuating that they're responsible for everything. Come the first episode, these characters turn out to be foreigners who came to work at a nearby fishery and are implicitly Middle Eastern Muslims; coupled with the other Lovecraftian themes established from the very start of the series, this might hint at touching on the uncomfortable but less-cosmic parts of the Cthulhu mythos--namely, Lovecraft's racism which led him to attribute the Cthulhu cult to basically every non-white people on Earth in ''The Call of Cthulhu''. [[spoiler: There ''is'' friction between the new tenants and the Japanese characters, but it's the Koshide family who are responsible for everything and the foreigners are just as much victims of them as the earlier tenants]].
