- Glowing eyes seems to be a Metal Hero trait. Yet why was Blue Beet's eyes always "lit up" while G-Stag, Reddle and Black Beet had eyes that turned on and off?
- Based on the opening credits, was Katagiri originally supposed to be a motorcyclist instead of a naturalist?
- Is the logo that appeared on the survival school's flag in ep. 33 the Jamahl logo?
- Why did the Gaohm Zone stop being used after a while? That seemed like a throwback to the Space Sheriffs.
- Whenever Stagger Tank emerges from the base, its cockpit is facing the direction Beetluder went in. But when it goes down the ramp, it's facing the opposite way. Was this a filming error?
- I understand why Reina Hazuki (Rei) left the show, but couldn't they have come up with something more sensible to explain her departure? She leaves right before the end of the Black Beet debut arc, and it's written off as "going to to do research in South America"? On a whim? Who the heck does that at a time like that?
Her last episode was the one where Kamazakiller laid eggs in people and caused them bodily harm. They could have written Rei out as being put "out of commission" from the ordeal and having to be discharged, or something. As long as it's not just gallivanting off to another country while the world is still in peril.
Also, does she ever make an appearance in BF Kabuto?
- Why did Keisuke Tsuchiya only start playing Shadow from ep. 43 onward? If it was just to conceal his identity, couldn't they have just dubbed over the voice (which they did anyway even after his face was revealed) instead of having Jiro Okamoto and Seiji Taikawa fill in?
- Why was Shadow almost always in the Black Beet suit even when not fighting?
- Why was Takuya the only one who used the Beet Ingram? Kabuto said only a hero could use it. Is that implying Daisaku and Mai aren't heroic enough?
- Why did Mukai leave Sayuri?
- Why did Schwartz start having two voices halfway into the show?
- What did Schwartz say in reference to Saint Papillia and Gaohm's plan in ep. 41? That robots were immortal?
- Why did Takuya try to quit after seeing Papillia?
- Why did Papillia say that Shadow had to kill Takuya in order to gain her eternal life? I thought if Takuya injured Shadow and vice versa, the other would feel it as well. So following that, wouldn't Shadow killing Takuya mean Shadow's death as well?
- What did Shadow say to Takuya before he died?
- In ep. 48, what was Schwartz trying to do with the people he kidnapped?
- Did Gaohm tell Hidra that Jera was a traitor?
- Up until the finale, Jera's alter ego is played by Yuko Ito. Jera even has Yuko's hair. But then right before she dies they show a white woman beneath the mask. What was the point of that?
- Does Papillia ever appear or get mentioned again in Kabuto?
- Was the show supposed to end at 51? From the way that episode ends it seems like everything was resolved. Was Toei given two extra episodes to work with and decided to do a team-up with Janperson, Gun Gibson and the Blue SWAT trio? I think it could have worked as its own movie instead of a two-parter.
- Why did Jagul come back at all?
- Is BillGoldy's "I'll be back!" supposed to be a reference to Arnold Schwartzenagger?
- Did Soji Masaki (Shou/Blue SWAT) play Kamiya Gou/Sazer Tragos in Gransazer?
- Has the actress who plays the schoolgirl in the team-up appeared anywhere else? She looks familiar.
- Have Reina Hazuki, Chigusa Tomoe (Mai) or Hidra's actress appeared in anything else before or since B-Fighter?
- Who plays Drago in the movie? And what was Drago supposed to be?
- When exactly does the movie take place? It's obviously before ep. 18 as Gaohm is still in his first form, but the heroes don't look surprised at seeing Gaohm. Whereas in ep. 18 they are.
