Trivia

• This is the first episode to have only one segment, thus making this first full half-hour length episode of the series.
  • Also, this is the first episode where Nate isn't the main character, as Jibanyan plays the main role of this episode.
• This episode also makes the debuts of Sgt. Burly and Kin and Gin who all debuted in Yo-kai Watch 2: Bony Spirits & Fleshy Souls.
  • Also, a Key Request based on this episode appears during the game.
• Unlike The Spooky Intersection and Yo-kai Peppillon, the scene where Jibanyan is lying on the road after being run over by a truck is not censored and is left intact in the dub.
  • It was also kept uncut in Jibanyan's Secret Past.
• This is the second time that Nate almost hugged Jibanyan.
  • Although in Yo-kai Report Cards, Jibanyan technically hugged Nate, after he found out how cute he was on his report card.

Dub Differences
