Notes

• The original BR ending is lost because of the LaserDisc release of the 1995 dubbed version. ^[4] It does not survive through CN Latin America, which means that the original print may be lost forever if WB doesn't restore the original negative.
• The original titles have been found in an eBay auction in 2007, but it is unknown if they will be acquired for future releases. ^[5]
