  • Was that Takashi's wrecked bike Yuji finds at the start? []
  • Edits on Cartoon Network:
    1) Eyelid digitally added to Minnie's corpse. Quantity of blood coming from her mouth and pooled around her head digitally reduced.
    2) Shot of transport truck driver's corpse cropped to removed large pool of blood under his head.
    3) Shot of Marlene's breasts pressing against Yuji's back and Yuji blushing as a result during his pistol training cut. (weird, considering that Fooly Cooly had a similar scene that wasn't cut or altered).
    4) Yuji's line "Where's that son-of-a-bitch hiding?" changed to "Where's that bastard hiding?" as he and Joey hunt for the Blue (odd, since both swears are of equal weight and almost mean the same thing. Why would Cartoon Network--or even the distributor--think of substituting one for another when "son of a bitch" has been used on other Adult Swim shows?) []
  • Yuji finally decides to take up training in order to survive in the world he's in. []
  • First aired on October 21, 1999 in Japan. []
  • Joey:If I take some time to teach him how to drive a mech suit and you teach him how to shoot; it could only help us. []
