Quotes[]
"This really brings back memories for me, Matt. My ancestors lived in this part of Japan for almost 1500 years."
"I'm sure they wouldn't be pleased to know V.E.N.O.M. agents have been sighted in this area."
- Bruce Sato and Matt Trakker
"It figures: I finally get to see Japan, and it's from underneath!"
"Say hello to Magma Mole."
"This is really getting steep. Where's Mayhem think he's going, China?"
"I'll get him with the Penetrator."
"Don't try it, Buddy. Penetrator d-doesn't have... nearly enough power... to go through that much rock."
"You're gonna come up here and stop me?"
- Buddy Hawks and Matt Trakker
Satoisms[]
- "A whale cannot swim without moving the water."
- "Perhaps the wind can do what the hammer can not."
Continuity[]

Conflicts[]
- When the M.A.S.K. computer reports the Endurium theft, it mentions there is only one auto-surveillance photo of the suspect available, yet manages to show three different angles of the scene. However, it could just be zooming in on the picture.
- Gloria is shown in her day job instructing an elderly man how to drive. The man's hat disappears in one shot, then returns in the next. Furthermore, in the shot after that, the colors of his coat and hat have changed.
- Matt and Bruce are already in Japan when Matt decides to call in a team of M.A.S.K. agents, but both can be spotted at Boulder Hill during the Mask energizing scene before the rest of the team joins them in Japan.
- When Miles Mayhem uses his Viper mask, he mispronounces its name as 'Sniper'.
- Near the end, Gloria is so glad to see Matt is alive that she throws her Aura mask straight up into the air. When it cuts to a wide shot, it is nowhere to be seen.
