Notes[]
- Viewership: 10.1%
- This episode features appearances by two actors who play villains in Dai Sentai Goggle V.
- Toshimichi Takahashi, who plays General Deathgiller
- Yousuke Naka, who plays Grand Marshall Deathmark
- This episode marks the tokusatsu debut of Hiroyuki Sanada at the age of 16.
- Karen has a shorter haircut starting with this episode, although it will be styled differently in different episodes and will grow out during the rest of the show and team-up with the Gorengers. However, her longer haircut will continue to be seen:
- No new transformation sequence will be made to account for the haircut. It will stop being used after episode 20, but only because transformation sequences stop being used altogether around this time. A new transformation sequence is eventually used in the Gorenger team-up, but this is to account for the film's 2.35 aspect ratio.
- The opening and ending are never changed to account for Karen's haircut. While they are when the J.A.K.Q get a new member, the old footage still makes up the majority of the opening and ending. Karen's new haircut is only shown in new footage of her with the new team line-up.
