Notes[]

  • It is unknown what type of submarine was used by King Gurumes, but for refence we can assume that it was modelled after Ha-3 class submarine of Japanese Navy (as evident by low number of crew, tall handrails on front and specific tail - which are not present on most of Japanese submarines), and so its complement was used here, minus two since both of Gurumes' named henchmen manage to escape in a special pod.
