* SoundtrackDissonance: Several of these films use "Human" by Music/TheHumanLeague at the most inappropriate times - for example, ''Ninja Knight Thunder Fox'' plays it over a ''date-rape'' scene.

''Ninja Knight Thunder Fox'' is especially notable in this regard, as it ends with the hero [[ThrowingYourSword throwing his sword]] into the villain, who then ''explodes'' - and the movie freeze-frames and puts up "The End" ''just'' as he starts to explode.
