==Trivia==
*The focal scene of this episode depicts a fire at Myōken-ji Temple, located in the Kamigyo Ward of Kyoto. This scene was constructed using a model built at a 1/6 scale, through collaboration between director Akio Jissoji and special effects artist Jun Oki.
*Footage of the burning Myōken-ji Temple was later reused in the 1982 period drama special Akuryō Sakurako hime, produced by Tsuburaya Productions.
