==Notes==
*The nature of this episode, from what little has been described, makes it similar to Good Job, the final aired TV special of Kamen Rider Kuuga which was also jokingly labeled as "episode 50" of the series.
*Before the broadcast of Kamen Rider Blade, there was a filmed scene for this special where Kenzaki met his predecessor, Takumi Inui/Kamen Rider Faiz. Takumi would pass the baton on to Kenzaki, before the two transform together. This scene was only seen by several members of the production team and was never released anywhere else until several pictures of the scene were revealed in a magazine.
**The concept of would later become a tradition in the series, starting with Blade's partner, , with previous Red Rangers acknowledging their time is finished as they pass on the franchise to the next Red Ranger.
