Trivia[]
- This episode was later featured in Ultraman Retsuden episode 11 "Clash! Tiga vs. Evil Tiga!!".
- The name of this episode is in contrast to the name of the first episode of the series.
- In 2019, a fan asked writer Chiaki J. Konaka of why the episode title was named as "Inheritance of Shadows" as the word "shadow" was used instead of the "darkness". The writer replied that this is because while Evil Tiga is the episode's antagonist, he is not "evil" by natural means and is still a genuine Ultraman at that.[1]
- The episode features the overture from Richard Wagner's opera "Tannhäuser und der Sängerkrieg auf Wartburg" as the background music for Evil Tiga's descent onto Kumamoto City.
- According to suit actor Shunsuke Gondo, the scene where Tiga hugged Guardie was ad-lib, and director Hirochika Muraishi liked it so much that it was left in the final scene.
