Trivia

• The characters' names are taken from the German fairy tale, Hänsel and Gretel. Many of the series' characters compare them to a similar pair of disturbed, sadistic twins from the American film The Shining.
• In the manga, the song sung by Gretel to Rock on the Black Lagoon is called "Midnight, the Stars, and You", the song used in the ending credits to The Shining. In the anime, she sings "The World of Midnight", made for the anime and sung by Minako Obata.
• In the anime, their specific genders are unclear, and in Omake 4, it makes it seem like nothing changed because the children's true individual genders are completely unknown.
• Instead of the ending with Revy walking along the shoreline, it is Gretel and Hansel who walks the shoreline. First, only Gretel is shown walking barefoot in basically the same manner as Revy; later on she is shown to be walking beside her brother Hansel, then it ends with them both watching the sunrise.
• Gretel is a very talented singer, as shown when she sings for Rock, causing Dutch to remark "Girl sure can sing. Hard to believe it's the voice of a homicidal maniac. A devil with the voice of an angel”.
• Despite their ruthless upbringing, the twins seem well-read. During a conversation about the writer of the quote, "The ultimate love is cannibalism”, they list off Richard Matheson and Edgar Allen Poe, with 'Hänsel' questioning the former being a necrophiliac.
