      • In the Japanese version, both Good Excel and Bad Excel have Kansai accents, which is a regional Japanese accent. It is similar to a southern accent in English. So, in the English dub, Good and Bad Excels have southern accents, except Good Excel had that accent for a short while. Edit

      • Foreman: Hahahaha! Excellent, Pedro. You really are a hard worker. Pedro: Pedro could do all this before breakfast. Of course, he ate his lunch a few hours ago. (Other construction workers laugh) Foreman: Damn! You've even picked up on these stupid Japanese word-play jokes, haven't ya? Edit
      • (Excel and Pedro fall off a girder.) Excel: Billie Jean! Pedro: John Travolta! Edit
      • Great Will of the Macrocosm: Excel... Excel... thou must not kill the original comic book author. Excel: I'm so sorry. I suppose it was wrong. Edit

      • Foreman: Just don't tell that Gomez. This could be an allusion to the fact that there will eventually be a person named Gomez who ruins Pedro's life later in the series. Edit
      • Excel and Pedro: Guarandoo! The origin of "Guarandoo" is unclear, but it could possibly refer to the word in a singer's album title, but the word had no meaning. The singer, a man, wore a skinpy outfit, and people wondered if the hair on his stomach wasn't from... well, down there. So "Guarandoo" came to mean "thick body hair", which is now the common usage of the word. Nonetheless, what this has to with the way Excel and Pedro use it is anyone's guess. Edit
      • Nabeshin: Lupin the 3rd Nabeshin's clothes closely resemble the outift that anime character Lupin the 3rd wears. Edit
