* Anime only: Asuka Jr. has been taken off the case and replaced by Kaede Kitamura, an inspector from Tokyo Metropolitan Police who uses electronic trackers to chase Saint Tail. As Saint Tail is committing a caper, Rina is bugging her uncle the mayor to get Asuka Jr. back on the case, but the mayor replies that by then Kitamura must have already caught Saint Tail... Cue Kitamura breaking in the room, accusing ''Rina'', of all people, of being Saint Tail (cue hilarious WTF face), and engaging her in an epic contest at throwing each other across the room, with the mayor and Kitamura's sidekick wondering what the hell is happening and Saint Tail's pet hedgehog (that had brought the tracker there) laughing its ass off. Needless to say, Asuka Jr. got back the case by the end of the episode.
