** Melanie [=MacQueen=], who voiced Lisa Hayes, Marlene Rush, and Ariel in the original English language Robotech dub, reprises the role of Marlene but not her alien doppleganger Ariel - instead Ariel is voiced by KariWahlgren. Exactly why this took place is unknown given that other actors from the original series - Tony Oliver for Rick Hunter, Gregory Snegoff for Scott Bernard, etc. - were on hand reprising their roles (or playing new ones), even though Kari is quite good in the part.

** In fact, just to make sure they are using the original 80s cast, Harmony Gold put the name of the Mexican voice actors in the Latin American edition of the OVA, ''before the names of the original English voice cast'', a priviledge normally reserved for blockbuster animated films from Creator/{{Disney}}, DreamworksAnimation, and other big names in animation.

* TheOtherDarrin: A very weird case that involves the Mexican Spanish dub: The Mexican Spanish dub use the original voice cast (or at least the remaining living/still-active voice actors) from the first dub used in the 80s, rather than the new one created in the 2000s for the remastered version, due to the awful reception that dub had between the older and casual fans, despise the new 2000s dub was intended to replace the older one. Basically, the original 80s voice cast are ''TheOtherDarrin'' for the intended new cast.
