- Video Game References in this episode:
- Genm's Rider Gauge replenishing after being emptied may be a reference to how many video game bosses have multiple health bars, sometimes each a different color, which must be depleted in sequence to actually defeat them.
- It also is a reference to how some games have cheats to gain extra lives, gain unlimited health or become completely immune to damage.
- If viewers pause the video of Kiriya's conversation with Kuroto, they can see on top of the ping pong table in Kuroto's office are some toy Tetris blocks.
- Genm's Rider Gauge replenishing after being emptied may be a reference to how many video game bosses have multiple health bars, sometimes each a different color, which must be depleted in sequence to actually defeat them.
- This is the first episode of Ex-Aid to not feature the debut of a new form for any Rider, though it does debut a new Gashat to be used for a new form in the next episode.
- This is the first time Ex-Aid changes into Hunter Action Gamer Level 5 (Full Dragon) from a different form other than Action Gamer Level 2 (Robot Action Gamer Level 3).
- This is the first time Brave and Snipe change from their Level 1 forms to their Level 5 forms.
- This is the first time since their respective debuts that Brave and Snipe don't wield their Gashacon Weapons.
- The preview for the next episode at the end of the show has the theme EXCITE replaced with a fast-paced chiptune version of "Jingle Bells", as the next episode is a Christmas episode which aired on Christmas Day.
- The Sponsor bumper is also altered to reflect the Christmas season as well, as Ex-Aid is wearing a Santa hat and beard and running through a Christmas version of the level he walks though with snow and Christmas trees.
- The nurse mentions that Emu's internship is almost up, with Emu saying he can hardly believe it has been almost three months. This is the near exact amount of time the TV series has been airing at this point and could imply that Emu became a Rider not long after he started his internship.
