Notes[]
- The New York Cosmos soccer team is an actual American soccer team which managed to hire the Brazilian soccer player Pelé in the late 1970s. Due to copyright issues for both the Pioneer/Geneon English translation and the Italian Blu-ray subtitles, the teams had become the Yontos and the New York Mammoths (a play on the New York Giants) with the famous player being Perre and the English dub being Pierre. While the Japanese original changed the American team while the others being more ambiguous, the Italian dub however uses the correct names.
- The plane that lands in Rio says "LUPAN AIRLINES".
- Due to lack of research, Olivera is actually a feminine name rather than a masculine name however Neto (became Net in the Italian and English dub) is a surname used for many Brazilian footballers. For the Italian Blu-ray subtitles, it was partially corrected to a Portuguese name however this means that Oliveira Neto has two surnames.
- On the VAP Blu-ray, the song Day by Day has an dip on the volume from 9:43-9:45. This does not appear in the Italian and English dubs as well as other releases with the Japanese original. There is a small sound skip on the Italian dub on 9:53 that appeared on the Blu-ray however it was due to the deteriorating condition of the materials.
- The character design of one of the ticket collectors was later recycled for Socrates Nexus.
- Yoshio Takeuchi who written the episode along with episodes 8, 11, 39, 44, 48 and partly 49 was credited as Mamoru Konno, the identity of the writer was revealed in 2015 when Junichi Iioka who was story editor of the series had wrote a book detailing his experience.[2]
- This is one of the Part 2 episodes where Zenigata acts more like his early Part 1 self; he crows about Lupin's execution and has him shot at.
