Trivia

• Audio-wise, the Fang-shing say "fun" 17 times in 3 seconds.
• The amount of times "fun" is written varies with each instance.
• Moku-gyou considers the Fang-shing annoying, and wishes to eradicate them.
  • On this note, some Fang-shing locations cause the player to accidentally click on them when attempting to do something else, making the the game pause as they say their hint and wasting a lot of time.
