*** Beppu REALLY wanted the part of Red, to the point where she even suggested she could do try it with her cross dressing and playing a male character Takarazuka style but Toei didn't think the young boy demographic would be comfortable with that. To throw her a bone however they did write an episode where Houka and Kai change bodies so Beppu could try that out.

** According to [[http://community.livejournal.com/magiranger/25135.html this interview]], Ayumi Beppu, who played Houka, tried out for the role of [=MagiRed=], and Hiroya Matsumoto, who played Tsubasa, supported her in this. Thus, we would have gotten the first female red Ranger [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger four years]] earlier.

Atsushi Hashimoto, on his part, went into the audition realizing it was a SiblingTeam and, due to him being young enough to be the kid brother, he thought he would wind up being Magi Green, as he thought Red as a leading figure would be better suited for an older brother type of character (funnily enough, the older brother turned out to be Green).

They also had a particularly good rapport with the ''Dekaranger'' cast, particularly Umeko's actress Mika Kikuchi, to at least a degree that's allegedly not particularly common for cross-series casts.

** Before it was decided that the series would be about ThePowerOfFamily, there was a tentative idea to have the Red be a prince of a magical world and the other four be his attendants. This kind of idea would later show up in series like ''[[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Shinkenger]]'' and ''[[Series/AvataroSentaiDonbrothers Donbrothers]]''.
