Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- When the show aired on TechTV, it got edited due to time constraints. Most noticable is having the ending theme song, "Chin ~Requiem~", play at the beginning of the show, thus making the ending theme become the opening theme song. The actual opening theme was just cut out altogether.

- Although never specifically stated, it has been proven that Betterman takes place in the same universe as the anime series King of Braves GaoGaiGar, proven by several cameos of minor GaoGaiGar characters.
