Notes
- ^ Possibly a pun on ひっぱる?, lit.: "to pull".
- ^ For an unknown reason, this comic was published far earlier in English, and only later was released in Japanese.
- ^ Possibly a pun on おし?, lit.: "weight" and しずかに?, lit.: "quietly".
- ^ にらめっこ? specifically refers to a game played by children where two or more competitors will stare at each other and aim to make the opponent laugh first.
- ^ A pun on nectar's Japanese name, 大地のエキス?, lit.: "Earth extract". みわく? may also be a pun: it means something along the lines of 'bewitching' or 'lure' and here can refer to how Pikmin are attracted to nectar as well as the hole being a trap.
