Important things that happened

西洋妖怪フランケン

Based on Frankenstein's monster. He appears to hate machines.

西洋妖怪ドラキュラ

Wolfman (西洋妖怪オオカミオトコ)

バイソンキングドラゴ

Bison King with Otomo Nin Drago as the left arm. Yakumo comments that Bison King's cockpit is too cramped for two people.

Soragake Hatenkou Giri! (Sky Dash Unprecedented Slash 空駆け破天荒斬り) - Shinobimaru's finisher while wielding the weapon from Bison King Drago as well as performing HurricaneRed's special move.

The three western monsters/youkai are the big classic movie monsters: Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, and the wolfman.
- Despite the monster being called Franken, Kinji correctly names it Frakenstein's monster.
Momoninger arrives still wearing her apron from the restaurant.
When Yakumo appears in Bison's cockpit, he comments on how cramped it is.
Continuity: Nagi almost calls Kasumi the "secret boss" again, before halting himself in fright.
Franken knows about otaku culture. He buys what appears to be Precure goods, including a hug pillow, and says Mo-e.
When Franken dies, he comments that he wishes he could have been in the "spotlight" some more. This is a play on his attack, "stoplight".
Callback: Takaharu refers to Kinji and Yakumo as the Western Combi (literally the America-Europe combi).
Callback: Kinji calls Yakumo "Yakkii" like he said he would in another episode.
Tsumuji gets to say his catchphrase of ending a line with "perhaps" when commenting on how Takaharu didn't go to the yakiniku restaurant.

During the ending theme, there's a guess the number of colored fireworks there are. The colors match the colors on the remote for TV's in Japan.
- Blue 4 Red 3 Green 5 Yellow 3
The Ninnin game and ending are the summer/movie versions.

Franken (Yanada Kiyoyuki) is also known for deep voiced monsters such as Yogoshutain, El of Water, and Tau Zanto.
Ookami Otoko (Fujimoto Takahiro) has been known to play Kamen Rider Nigou since Decade (although he doesn't play Nigou in the recent Super Hero Taisen GP movie).
