Notes[]
- As was typical for Enoki Films' compilation film dubs, the end credits do not contain the names of the actual English voice cast. Many of the actors have only been identified through their past roles.
- The opening theme was sung by Marc Mercury, who also composed the film's music through his production company, Bullets.
- Episodes 1-2 and 24-26 were used to make the film.
- In the opening theme, Toto is referred to as Talk-Talk. He is also called Talk-Talk on the back of the Digiview Entertainment DVD and the official website.
