Production
Crystal Jewels Go! is a first Crystal Jewels episode in the series to be performed and made in Japan. It was directed by Sano Ukuto and written by Richi Uno. They want the character such as Kouchu Misako, and they want the characters based on the video games. The character, Roaracryst, was popularly compared with other Crystal monsters.
English Adaption
When the episode was already released, they decided to release it in the North America. And they also change the Crystal monster's and characters' name such as Roakijushiku became Roaracryst, Nanekoto became Ninevoat, Masuta became Plant more, then Hashiha became Mouselette, and the notable exception was Kouchu and Sakuro, two characters that has their same Japanese name. They decided to name Kouchu "Kelvin" and Sakuro "Sam", but they rejected it due to their appearance.
" We don't want any violence or sex or mature content in this children's show. We want it more appropriate than its original version." Kate Ukona, voice of Kouchu Misako, enjoy recording his voice in the Original series. They've cutted Sakuro shoving Kouchu from his shoulder.
Reception
The episode aired on April 6, 1993 in United States. Kouchu came out different because his and his game counterpart's appearance came out comparing each other. "When Kouchu said he wanted a crew, I though he would go around and ask everyone to join him, but instead, he would choose a specific person to person. The Crystal Monster, Marc, was hiding under the shadows knowing that it is a 150th Crystal Monster in the Crystal World.
