Card Trivia:Ape Magician
- This monster's weapon is based on a Minus Staff, a weapon used by Zeman the Ape King and his army to inflict the Minus Curse in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime.
- The Minus Curse can also cause a character's personality to become reversed, which is reflected in this card's effect to switch control of an opponent's monster.
- In the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime, this card is also treated as a Spellcaster monster.
- This card shares this trait with "Ape Fighter" a fellow member of the Ape series whose anime effect allows it to be treated as a different Type.
