** In Japanese, it applies to every character except Esteban, as Creator/MasakoNozawa was the only Japanese seiyuu to reprise his/her role when she series was redubbed (from French) for its Japanese home video release/BS2 rebroadcast.



** Shiraz Adam, the VA for Esteban, was a huge fan of the show back when it was popular in Montreal according to a DVD interview. Slightly subverted in his case because he didn't see it for another few years when he visited his cousins in the UK (despite being dubbed in Canada, it was only ever screened in the UK and the US).

* {{Misblamed}}: Some differences between the French and Japanese translations are attributed to {{Bowdlerization}} by the former of the latter, which is inaccurate since the series is a joint Franco-Japanese production written by Jean Chalopin and Bernard Deyriès but animated in Japan. If anything, the differences were more to tailor them to differing expectations of their respective '80s-era audiences than anything else.



** The Japanese soundtrack was also considered for the English version and was discarded in favor of the French soundtrack, though the script would still have been based on the French version.
