Trivia[]
- The word 「始発」 in the volume's title can refer to the first train of the day or a departure from the home station, which may be a reference to the prologue scene where the GSC president is riding the train and talking to Sensei.
- This volume is currently the only volume with major events linked to it, such as F.SCT Strategic Battle, A-H.A Occupation Battle, and PHT Decisive Battle.
- This volume is the second volume with a dedicated Ending Credits song[1] following Volume 2.
- The 4th PV[2] mainly revolves around this volume.
- Chapter 2 released 2 days after the release of Chapter 1, making it the fastest Main Story update in Blue Archive history.
- Due to the volume being titled the "Final Volume," some were worried that the game was approaching its EoS. However, this was disproven in an interview[3] with the game's producers, where they confirmed that this was actually only the end of the game's beginning.
- In an interview with isakusan[4], he mentioned that Volume F has been in development for around 5 years. In addition to that, he has hidden some elements of Volume F around the 1st-3rd PVs.
- One of the hints that has been found is a drawing of Plana hidden in the bottom-left corner of the whiteboard [5] during the opening sequence of the 3rd PV, which led to people believing that the events of Volume F happened before the 1st Anniversary and before a year after Sensei's arrival in Kivotos.
- In a developer commentary[6], Lim JongGyu mentioned how during the beginning of the Blue Archive project, he and other developers discussed how live service games don't usually have endings, so making a "Final Episode" would be the best way to get ahead with their new IP.
