Trivia

  • Sashihara Rino, Yamamoto Sayaka, and Matsui Rena were the only Senbatsu members of So long! who did not appear in any of the drama episodes, because they're not part of Teams A, K, and B.
  • In Team B Episode, the blog contains hidden terms denoting Mitsuki (tsuki, moon), Asuka (a play on the name Asuka: "a sukai", can be read as "a sky" or "sora"), and Komiyama-sensei (Spaceboy, students call her 'alien').
  • Some elements of the stories have distinct similarities to Sakura Kara no Tegami.
    • Kawakami Fukaba (played by Watanabe Mayu) mentioned that she had a best friend named "Sae".
    • Miho (played by Oshima Yuko) was having a hard time balancing her feelings between finding a job and taking care of Tsubasa (played by Matsui Jurina); in Sakura Kara no Tegami, Maeda Atsuko played a slightly similar role, as she was torn between choosing between her resentment towards her father and her concern for him.
    • The homeroom teacher, Komiyama (played by Kojima Haruna), was suffering from an incurable ailment.
