Trivia[]
- When coming up with the name, they wanted to use Braver but it had already been used by another character. Then Yamane said they probably couldn't find a suitable name for the Reiwa (April Fool's project). Kiuchi then said Rei(wa)Braver sounded perfect.
- Even though the design was seemingly ready by April 1st, Takuma Kiuchi said they didn't come up with a name for it on time, which might be the reason why it got delayed.
