And not only that, Kazuki Komon's actor who is the actual main character in Nexus makes a cameo as Tachibana's husband.

Just to add, Lieutenant Tachibana becoming Nexus serves as a nod to Nagi becoming the host of Nexus, a plot point that was supposed to last longer but instead, only lasted a few episodes due to Nexus getting cut short.
