TriviaEdit

• The Showa Era Riders appeared in this episode, but Saban did indeed plan to remove them and replace them with the Power Rangers. This was changed due to low budget.
• This episode is notable for changing the names of the majority of the Showa Riders (only Kamen Rider ZX retains his name, while Nigo and Riderman are omitted.) Many Riders who were intended to keep their names or similar were called by the wrong names because the Riders did not appear in the order that the script writers believed:
  • Kamen Rider Ichigo becomes Masked Rider Warrior Leader
  • Kamen Rider V3 becomes Masked Rider Warrior Commander
  • Kamen Rider X becomes V3
  • Kamen Rider Amazon becomes Riderman
  • Kamen Rider Stronger becomes Masked Rider X
  • Skyrider becomes Amazon
  • Kamen Rider Super-1 becomes Strongman

• Shigeru Sahara and Hitomi Sahara appeared from the footage from Kamen Rider Black RX episode False Rider's Last Days.
• This episode is infamous for the phrase "I AM AMAZON!" which sparked a minor internet meme among the tokusatsu fandom years after its broadcast, especially due to the fact that the names were announced out of order, so it was Skyrider who dramatically declared himself to be Amazon.
