In 2024 an Italian translation for this game was created by a YouTube channel named Scorpion2k7.

It was released publicly all of a sudden and didn't get much publicity, because it wasn't shared on traditional channels, but it seemed like an interesting idea to me, because it could have been used as a base for other Western translations; therefore, I pointed it out to Spike and then it was published in the Repo.

WHAT THE FUCK DOES IT MEAN THAT IN THE PAST THE NORTH AMERICAN MARKET REFUSED TO IMPORT JAPANESE ANIMATION OR AT LEAST BROUGHT VERY LITTLE OVER DUE TO GRUDGES GENERATED DURING WORLD WAR II?! LONG LIVE OUR SANITIZED AND TASTELESS SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS, WHICH ANYWAY WERE SECRETLY PRODUCED BY THE SAME JAPANESE PEOPLE!'.

Meanwhile, on the boot peninsula on a certain day of autumn 2025, which had already been importing Japanese animation since the 70s due to licenses sold at a low price for products that nevertheless had a very high average quality and which therefore as early as the 80s aired all 152 episodes of the Toei Animation TV series and subsequently also imported the manga and all other related products such as the cinematographic works...
