Production notes

This TV series ran for 38 episodes.

"SPT" is an abbreviation for "Super Powered Tracer."

The first part of the series is set on Mars in 1996, while the second part begins on Earth in 1999.

After Episode 38, the series was pulled off the air while Eiji was still left in space.

The series was initially released as three 55-minute tapes. "Eiji 1996" (a digest of Episodes 1 to 24) and "Lu Kain 1999" (a digest of Episodes 26 to 37) both included extra, previously unbroadcast footage, while "Act III: Seal 2000" contained previously unseen Episodes 39 and 40.

Another three-tape video series contained Episodes 1 to 4 on the first and second tapes and Episodes 15 and 28- supposedly because they were favorites with the fans- on the third.

Only in 1997 was the entire broadcast run released on video.
