- ^ I have never watched or read Dune, shut up.
- ^ "Cocoba" in this case refers to the entirety of Wuhu Town.
- ^ In Wuhu mythology, the Kejaha was used to tell the mood of Maka Wuhu. Though many see it as a superstition, it did fairly accurately predict the most recent eruption of Maka Wuhu 213 years ago.
- ^ During Japanese occupation of Wuhu Island, many Buddhists from mainland Japan noted the similarity in shape between the Kejaha and a reclining Buddha statue, and thus, aside from the local Buddhist temple in Wuhu Town, many Buddhists began praying to the Kejaha. The Buddhists called it by the Japanese term for a Reclining Buddha, 涅槃仏(ねはんぶつ, Hepburn: nehanbutsu), which was loaned into Nawuhu as Nehaubvs.
