Trivia:

When released in Japan, a music video featuring the song "In The Full Moonlight" followed the closing credits. When ADVision translated the video into English, they discovered that the lyrics were so ludicrous (one line was: "I am chewing gum") that they rewrote the lyrics so the subtitles had no relation to what was being said.

Goofs:

Continuity: During the scene with the clock tower (just after Yohko learns she's a Devil Hunter), the number of numerals on the clock's face shifts between 12 (I-XII) and 13 (I-XIII) between shots.
