I will stay away from this one as I know that the creator of this series is a far-right wing extremist and denier of the Nanjing Massacre and the comfort women system in Japan during WWII. So, I give a hard pass.

You think this is because some people found out MC Hammer did one of the ending themes?

There's no way they got the rights to re-use "Count it Off," since it was apparently edited out of all of the home video releases. Even back then it was just weird. The ending has a dancing MC Hammer and everything, and they apparently did some tie-in merch with MC Hammer as well.
