[edit] Episode list
Almost all of the series' episode titles correspond to real songs, composed by Japanese or foreign artists.[1] Some of these have been stated to be intentional references (including Blue Monday[2]), and other phrases previously only existed as song titles. However, it is unclear whether every episode title is intended as a musical reference.
