The Keep Circulating The Tapes for the anime is already listed in the anime's dedicated trivia page.


* KeepCirculatingTheTapes:
** After Creator/BandaiEntertainment went out of business in 2012, the North American releases of the anime went out of print and its future of ever being licensed again [[note]] in North America at least [[/note]] is ''very'' uncertain due to it being an Creator/{{Aniplex}} title.
** Averted for the tokusatsu, which is still in print to this day. Also averted for the manga, which is currently being sold digitally through Comixology. Played straight for the Kikaider Code 02 manga however.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: After Creator/BandaiEntertainment went out of business, it's gotten quite difficult to get a hold of the anime, not helping things is the fact that the ''Kikaider'' anime was produced by Creator/{{Aniplex}} who unfortunately has gained a very polarizing reputation amongst North American anime fans due to their business practices and their refusal to license titles out to third parties [[note]] Though this seems to be changing ever since Sony bought Creator/{{Funimation}} and made them their main anime division in North America, Oceania and the UK.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Hakaider's movie was to lead into a spin off tv series that was gonna premiere a year after the film's release. While ultimately scrapped, elements of the planned show became the unrelated Toei tokusatsu ''Choukou Senshi Changerion''. Even earlier than that, A TV series starring a heroic Hakaider was planned by Ishinomori all the way back in the 80s as an attempt to bring the series back. There's even [[https://imgur.com/zELFyiJ concept art]] for it.
