Good observation! There is still something more.

Otonashi is zero (nashi), not four. There is a reason.

Now I'm really curious on what it is.

Check my other comment for the answer :-)

Ah. I would've never guessed it!

The average number of pins left after they bowl? Their number of wins? Number of strikes?

Bodycount?😈

The anime hasn't aired yet, so it has nothing to do with its contents :-)

I wrote the answer in another reply.

HintYou can tell the naming is deliberate by the name of the school.

AnswerThe surnames are taken from Maison Ikkoku characters.

The name of the high school is Ikkokukan high school, Ikkoku-kan being the name of Maison Ikkoku (the building) in Japanese.

Very acute observation, but there is something more.
