Trivia

 * When the English version was initially listed on Amazon, its title was erroneously listed as Homesteading the Noosphere. Later, it was changed to Krusty, Tycoon Road, then had its volume name removed entirely before being listed as Krusty, Tycoon Lord. The finalized book cover revealed December 2018 kept Krusty, Tycoon Lord as the name.
 * Differences between the Japanese version and the Yen On version:
 * The Japanese name for the "Ritual of Coronation" is 封禅の儀. 封禅, or Feng Shan, was a Chinese official rite performed so the emperor could receive the Mandate of Heaven.
 * In chapter 4, page 178 (Yen On version), the term translated as "Vital Fall" is written 崩落バイタルダウン in the original. バイタルダウン more directly translates to "Vital Down", while 崩落 is a term that means "collapse" and can be used to refer to a market crash. It is possible that the "Vital Fall" in Leonardo's youth refers to the financial crisis of 2007–2008.
 * Inconsistencies in the English version:
 * "Crimson King Faction" and "Red King Faction" are simultaneously used to refer to the same group. In Japanese, their name is spelled the same (紅王閥) in all instances.
