- This episode, along with episode 6, was not edited to replace Kenji Ushio with Masashi Ishibashi as Commander Hedder after he replaced him in the role starting from episode 9, unlike the rest of the first seven episodes. This came after Kenji Ushio was arrested for possession of drugs early in the series run.
