Trivia

 * This is the first time that we are shown that there are more supernatural beings besides zombies within the Zombie Land Saga universe.
 * This is later also supported by the anime, during the second season finale, where aliens are also revealed to exist.
 * The Busters Saga theme refers to the motto of Pokémon's Team Rocket.
 * Tae was an office lady by day and a Sagako slayer by night.
 * The mansion was her property and it was the one she used to train and make weapons, Kotaro's makeup is what the girls used to look beautiful, the glasses Sunshine are also her property, the shovel that Kotaro was seen in the first episode was from Tae's weapons, basically Kotaro only used what was in the mansion to make his group of idols.
 * This could mean that being idols is only training to fight future Sagako that could be released in Saga at any time.
