  • The Character Died with Him: Kaoru Kiriyama's actor, Shoji Nakayama passed away before the 1999 special despite the character having a heavy involvement with the episode's antagonist, Nonmalt. Therefore, Kiriyama was written out to be Killed Offscreen by TDF as part of their Government Conspiracy.
  • Out of Order: For the 2002 Pentalogy Ultraseven Evolution, episode 4 was aired first before the others. This is done intentionally out of fear that the audience will abandon the series since Ultraseven at that time was barely in action from his imprisonment.
  • Role Reprise: From Ultraseven, only Kohji Moritsugu, Sandayu Dokumamushi, Yuriko Hishimi and Kenji Sahara reprising their roles as the elderly Dan Moroboshi, Shigeru Furuhashi, Anne Yuri and Chancellor Takenaka.
  • What Could Have Been: Shoji Nakayama was due to reprise his role as Kaoru Kiriyama, but the actor died the year prior, thus his character had to be written out as Killed Offscreen. The novel EPISODE 0 (a retelling of Episode 6 from 1999 Final Chapter Hexalogy) has Kiriyama included as a retired and senile former captain of Ultra Garrison.
