Trivia[edit]
- The medal set in the trailer is arranged to look like a tower.
- The Babel event is the first event where a new 4★ Operator (Lutonada) was released and made one of the rate-up Operators in its' tie-in headhunting banner outside Main Theme episode releases since Indigo in Preluding Lights and its' tie-in banner, Revolution Symphony.
- Coincidentally, all Operators who had their outfits reran in the event are tied to other Intermezzi events and the Main Theme.
- You the Future, Take My Gift operations are arranged to form an EKG reading, symbolizing Theresa's life and death. Notably, the QRS complex becomes smaller after BB-ST-2, where the Doctor, who would play the decisive role in her death, is awakened; the reading then "flatlines" from BB-9, depicting her demise.
- A total amount of 13 Deathveil Assassins are present in BB-9 to kill Theresa, the exact amount of operators one can have in a given squad (12 plus one Support operator).
- The descriptions of You the Future, Take My Gifts and You the Past, Ward Me Firmly operations show the conversation between Theresa and Theresis.
- The titles of You the Past, Ward Me Firmly describe the steps of an assassination.
- The main menu artwork of the event is a summary of the story, which took place from 898 to 1094; the timeline is seen at the bottom of the menu.
- The Babel event's update in the Global server adds some changes that were implemented in the Episode 14: Absolved Will Be the Seekers update in the CN server, ahead of its scheduled Global release in October 31, 2024. Notably, in Amiya's Class Conversion menu, the choice for her Medic version is available but cannot be selected yet.
- The main menu artwork features a hole in the glass in the shape of the sanity icon. It also appears on Theresa's shoulder, as if she was shot, symbolizing her fate.
