- Kamen Yaiba is the cell phone background of Mitsuhiko's phone in episode 622-623.
- He's been referred to as Samurai Kid since around volume 30 of the English translation, which is what the translation used to call Yaiba whenever elements of that series made a cameo. This is an obvious translation error: they have similar names.
