Melon has the spade (♤) as a symbol, while Momoko has a heart (♡), Prune a diamond (♢), and Pine a clover (♧), which all allude to respective playing card suits.
Melon is the 23rd character added to Bombergirl.
Her rod in shape of a bell and the Bell's rainbow color references the Rainbow Bell of the TwinBee series, and also somehow references the "Rainbow Bombergirl Event".
Her character video introduction is a reference to Detana!! TwinBee and shows a portion of it. The music used is "Beginning of an Adventure" from Pop'n TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures.
