Trivia

• The CBT version of Theme 36 - Koi is love is slightly different from its official version.
  • Beside the instruments and melody, the music slightly differs from the beginning and at the 1:08 mark.
• Theme 7 - Unwelcome School got so popular it became the top 1 most viewed Blue Archive OST, accumulating millions of views from the song uploads to memes using the song, even reaching the ears of communities and popular composers/artists outside of Blue Archive such as t+pazolite and Siivagunner.
  • The music is often associated with the Handyman 68, particularly Rikuhachima Aru. The anime adaptation would have a new iteration played in most of her appearances.
  • Theme 59 - RE Aoharu follows behind by a few million views solely due to the 4th PV which reached 9.5 million views alone as of April 27th, 2023.
• Theme 59 has a slightly different ending compared to its 4th PV version. The 4th PV version had a quiet ending.
• Theme 60 is the first instance of the rearrangement of an existing song, starting the trend of "Hard Arranges".
  • In this case, it's Theme 58 - SAKURA PUNCH.
  • Theme 49 - Mechanical JUNGLE (Hi-Tech Full On MIX) did not seem to be considered as such, but retroactively became so it is referred as such in the OST Vol.1.
• Theme 99's title "Nesno wons" is actually backwards for "snow onsen."
• Theme 105 - Alkaline Tears and Theme 140 - Defective Pixel are by far the only themes of the game that belongs to "Lo-fi" (low fidelity) genre.
• Theme 113 - Rabbit Flap is famously associated with Alice as her "main theme" due to its usage for an animated dance video by BlueSechi (one of the known fanartists of the Blue Archive commumity prior to their official involvement for the game's collab with Aniplus Korea).
  • The second day of the Blue Archive Festival live event featured Nor composing the theme song, while jokingly noted that it wasn't Alice's theme.
• Theme 128 - After School Dessert is often cited to be partially similar to Tom and Jerry, due to its musical opening and its fun nature.
• Theme 158 - Gregorius | Symphony is currently the longest theme in Blue Archive, standing at 4:26 minutes.
  • Theme 87 - Constant Moderato - Piano Arrange - follows as the second longest theme with 3:04 minutes,
• Theme 171 is likely a reference to the song "In the Sentimental Past" by Joseph Koo. It is the theme song of A Better Tomorrow, a film by John Woo that influenced Mina's design.
• Theme 190 - Dreaming Trip was used by the official World of Warships Japan Twitter account for their collaboration promotion video with Blue Archive.
• Theme 264 - Breaking Silence refers to Yurizono Seia's memetic infamy as an unvoiced NPC prior to the January 2025 pickup banner.
