One for the Sakura Wars Step
 
#11
For what it's worth, there's a line in the manga where the audience at one of the Flower Troupe performances is instructed to "please turn off
your steam mobile phones." (I found myself thinking about throwing "steamarangs" at villains and climbing the "steamrope.")

Another thing to consider is that the manga revealed Iris' childhood trauma by having her freak out when a mad-scientist-&-monster movie reminded her
of being locked in her room ... so while they maybe/probably wouldn't have developed the concept of Igor as we know him, Kohran would most likely grasp
what Doug was referencing without much explanation.

Too many facts about their past remain unspecified to make any reasonable try. The World War didn't happen as we
know it; but in what ways was it changed (aside from the fact that Japan was busy fighting a demonic invasion at the time)? Maria was part of a revolution in
Russia. Are the Soviets in charge there now? Another manga reference states that the metal used in koubu, "shirusu-usu," highly resistant to hostile
magic, was discovered during the American Civil War, a phrasing which implies that magic may have been used in that conflict. Doesn't that thought just
boggle the mind?
