Trivia

Yakumo said the word "easy" four times in this episode, not including the preview.
Grandfather has apparently lived in Italy, since he casually throws in Italian words.
Yakumo sits at a western desk while the rest sit on the floor with Japanese desks.
This is the first instance of the Ninningers wearing the traditional ninja outfits in the actual episode.
Kappa and Takaharu get in a sumo match. "Dosukoi" is a sumo shout. And when Kappa tosses Takaharu out, it shows the text labeling the type of sumo move he used.
- Kimarite - Winning techniques in a sumo bout.
- Uwatenage - Overarm throw
When talking about his grandfather's exploits, Takaharu mentions eating a Minminken jumbo gyoza in under 30 minutes. Minminken (みんみん軒) might be a reference to Kamen Sennin's Minminken (眠眠拳) technique from Dragonball. Also known as the Nighty-night fist.

Out of Episode Trivia

First episode to show the opening sequence.
- In the opening, only Izayoi is visible. Kibaoni and three other figures are only shown as silhouettes.
Takaharu covers the instructions for the Ninnin game this time.
Writer trademark - Comedy lines. Kappa calls Akaninger green/greenhorn, to which he replies that he's obviously red.
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 5 Green 2 Yellow 3
At the end of the episode, Drive Junction 6 aired.
