Dr. Cossack never appears in the series, but his robot masters do, as mooks for Dr. Wily.
- Brightman's Flash Stopper renders humans catatonic. Interesting way of implementing it. Makes less sense though when it was shown to work on people facing away from him...
- Minor thing, but I noticed that this episode had one of the few instances of a robot master weapon being called its actual name from the games. The previous episode did so as well, mentioning the Ice Slasher by name, and this episode did so with the Flash Stopper. I think these are the only two instances where they did this, though.
- The "Skull Car", which bears a strong resemblance to the Wily Machine from MM4, is Wily's usual method of transportation, but this is the only episode that shows Wily in his trademark saucer from the games. Kind of a shame...
- Ah, Dr. Light's hilarious delayed reaction to the bathroom door...
- Roll and the cosmetics bot; LOL. The part with the former ripping the latter's face off (right after slicing her in half)? Pretty brutal on a kids show, even for a robot... Lesson for today; DO NOT FUCK WITH ROLL.
- Dr. Wily's scheme for this episode seems kinda dumb on the surface, controlling just about everything that runs on electricity and all. Including things that are unplugged, as well as stuff like hot dog stands. However, it proved surprisingly effective judging how close he came to winning. He managed to take over as governor (presumably of New York, which seems to be where this series takes place.; the airport being attacked in the previous episode was Kennedy International, and this is also stated in a later episode as well.), albeit briefly, and the mole he placed in Light's lab came close to offing Megaman twice (but is then defeated by a bucket of water and a broom...).
- And of course, we cannot discuss this episode without talking about its best part; Pharaohman. This episode is what catapulted him to Memetic Badass. He looks badass, sounds badass, dishes out a beating, and reacts to Megaman copying his Pharaoh Shot by sucker-punching him! Tragically, this is his One-scene Wonder and we never see him again after this episode.
