For anyone interested, here's some fun fact about Hibiki's Jr. high school, its name, and how it ties together:
Japanese Kanji/Furigana
"鯨彫愚" has to do with "whale" (giant sea animal) and "carving" (scrimshaw/sculpting ivory). Its Furigana, how it's pronounced, "げいぼるぐ" is literally "Geiborugu."
Irish Gaelic Myth
"Gáe Bolg" is from an Irish myth and literally translates to "belly spear" (connotations of pain/death/sagging) Hibiki, anyone?~ That same "Gáe Bolg" spear is literally carved from the bone/toes of the giant undersea monster (whale). The meaning fits with the Kanji, the pronunciation fits with the phonetics! Nice!
Also, still with the myth, the spear has iterations of its story where it actually has "7 heads" or barbs for piercing and slicing, which fits with Hibiki mentioning one of the "7 miracles" her school is known for.

Why should I do something like learning martial arts, cloning, participating in death matches... When you can just learn to flex good.

so the reason they both remember the other "suddenly acting so BFF" is because it was their future selves setting up the friendship?

Ah yes, the classic paradox time travel scenario, both are convinced the other approached first because it will turn out that both were originally approached by the future version of the other 😛
