* From the Italian dub, a moment of Kenshiro's glorious return in the Gento arc: after a troop of Imperial soldiers enter a gallery to investigate ''what'' made another soldier explode and fail to do anything, another fat soldier comes in to investigate, spots Kenshiro on Koku-Oh... And politely asks: "Excuse me, but who are you?", in the same tone and with the same words as Film/{{Fantozzi}}. And as he not only quoted the most famous {{Chew Toy}} of Italian media but also ''looks'' like him, he's promptly flattened by Koku-Oh.
