. It can also be seen on deviantArt.
A mysterious young girl, Noriko Amewara, wanders into the Garden of the Sun. However, this child is not at all what she seems.
All incredibly spoiler-ific tropes are in their own folder.
- Running Gag: Everyone always asks Yuuka who Noriko's father is.
- Reference Overdosed: Oh god, the references... They are, as followed:
- Marisa: "I say we just shove the kid in and let Yuuka leave her body to the buzzards. Just like that one dinosaur movie!"
- Reimu: "You mean 'bus'? They don't exist here."
- Mima: "Power of the Moon, bitch!" Complete with the tell-tale pose
- There is a Sunflower plush near Yuuka's nightstand that bears an eerie resemblance to a certain popular video game.
- Mima actually does say "Nyoro~n" in the Walfa-mation.
- Yuuka and Sayu's confrontation
- Yuuka telling Alice "Please trust me" is a reference to Rena's final moments before Keichii killed her.
- There is a lot of ''Madoka Magica'' references
- the doctor that tends to Yuuka's wounds
- Noriko and eventually, Yuuka: "I'm such an idiot!"
- Noriko: My wish already came true! So my wish would be that it stays true forever!"
- There is a Kyuubey mask on display during the festival in the comic.
- Tenshi's keystones homing in on Noriko is a reference to Mami's death scene
- Noriko's Uu~ Uu~'s are a shout-out to Maria Ushiromiya
- Keine: "I'm not icky!"
- Noriko's tantrum during the festival is a heavy reference to a certain scene with Hakase and Nano
- The song Yuuka is singing (Let it Grow) before the vassals appear is from the remade movie
- The way Tenshi activates one of her spellcards may be a shout-out to a certain alchemist-related anime.
- Tenshi: "You really think you're going to kill me, right?"
- A baby that Yuuka encounters in the park bears an eerie resemblance to Yuuichi Mizuoka
SPOILERS
- Broken Bird: Yuuka and Noriko's mother, Kasumi.
- Tsun Dere: Yuuka. She even whacked Noriko upside the head when they first met. With her umbrella in the comic, her hands in the Walfa-mation.
- Deer in the Headlights: Alice attempted to kill Yuuka in the festival night by having Shanghai and Hourai approach Yuuka then detonating her dolls. Struck by regret and guilt, Yuuka didn't make any attempt to dodge or block the incoming attack. She was saved by Noriko who damaged Alice's dolls before they detonated.
- Driven to Suicide: Mima's daughter (who killed herself prior to the events of the story). Subverted with Kasumi, Noriko's mother and Yuuka.
- Interrupted Suicide: Mima to Yuuka. Too bad she couldn't save Shinki in time.

- Mama Bear: If you mess with Noriko, Yuuka will ultimately end you.
- Parents as People: Noriko's dad, Saburo. Because of his job as the Lord of the Dragon Palace and his grief from losing his wife, Noriko was left alone for a few years of her childhood.

- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Episode Six revealed that Alice has never forgive Yuuka for killing Shinki, her mother. She even pledged to kill Yuuka the next time she sees her.
- Eye Scream: Yuuka takes one of Tenshi's bullets to her eye. OUCH.
