This episode was produced first, making it the pilot episode. As such, there are a few inconsistencies with the rest of the show. [[Krusha (character)|Krusha]] is less simple-minded in this episode, and the lighting in [[King K. Rool]]'s lair is much darker. Additionally, [[King K. Rool]]'s name is pronounced in two different ways during this episode, first as "King Kay-Rool" and then shortly afterwards as "King Kuh-Rool", with the former having never been used in the show again after this episode. [[Cranky Kong]] also breaks the [[fourth wall]] in this episode like he tends to do in the games, which he almost never does in the animated series. | |||
