Translation Notes 2

The origin of this phrase starts with the live drama "Lesson Start!" (レッスン開始). In one part, Maki tells Hanayo that she sings too softly and offers to help her with some voice training. The voice training consists of Maki saying phrases quickly and Hanayo repeating after her.

Translation Notes 3

The lines are a take on Gojuuon no Uta (五十音の歌, Japanese Alphabet Song), a poem by Kitahara Hakushuu (北原白秋).

As you can see above, the phrase "Maki-chan kawaii KA-KI-KU-KE-KO!" does not actually appear in the drama. However, it was an obvious derivative that fans began using.
As the Pixipedia entry [1] notes, fans originally exposed to the anime may be surprised that Maki's personality was originally more narcissistic.
