[[File:FirewallDragon-JP-Anime-VR-NC-2.png|thumb|right|250|"[[Firewall Dragon]]" about to attack]]
+
* This monster is the [[Cover card]] for ''[[Code of the Duelist]]''.
  
* This card's second artwork is based on its appearance in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS]]'' anime, specifically scenes depicting it about to attack, where it changes color from blue to red.
+
* This monster is the [[signature card]] of [[Yusaku Fujiki]].
 +
** It shares the same [[ATK]] of 2500 as of the other signature cards: "[[Dark Magician]]", "[[Elemental HERO Neos]]", "[[Stardust Dragon]]", "[[Number 39: Utopia]]" and "[[Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon]]". These monsters are respectively the signature cards of [[Yugi Muto]], [[Jaden Yuki]], [[Yusei Fudo]], [[Yuma Tsukumo]] and [[Yuya Sakaki]], the previous protagonists from the first five series of the anime
 +
** As a [[Link Monster]], it is the first signature card of a main protagonist to not possess either a [[Level]]/[[Rank]] or a [[DEF]].
 +
** As a [[Link Rating|Link]]-4 monster, it is the first protagonist monster that cannot be summoned with 2 "sacrifices".
 +
*** The first time this card's summoned, however, is with '''2''' Link-3 monsters.
  
* This is the [[cover card]] of ''[[Code of the Duelist]]'', and is also one of the cover cards of ''[[Ghosts From the Past (set)|Ghosts From the Past]]'', ''[[LINK VRAINS Box]]'', ''[[Mega Pack 01]]'', ''[[Prismatic Art Collection]]'', and ''[[25th Anniversary Tin: Dueling Heroes]]''.
+
* This monster is named after a [[wikipedia:Firewall (computing)|firewall]], a network security system in computing that monitors and controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.
 +
** Therefore, this card can represent Yusaku's actions as Playmaker against [[The Knights of Hanoi]]: Protecting the Virtual World against any threat that menaces it.
  
* This monster appears in the artwork of "[[Cynet Circuit]]"
+
* This card was the first Link-4 monster to be released.
  
* This card is named after a [[wikipedia:Firewall (computing)|firewall]], a network security system in computing that monitors and controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.
+
* This card has 2 downgraded Link-2 counterparts: "[[Proxy Dragon]]" and "[[Security Dragon]]".
** This card reflects Playmaker's actions of protecting [[LINK VRAINS]] against any threat, especially the [[Knights of Hanoi]].
+
** Their combined ATK, Link Ratings, and [[Link Arrow]]s equal those of this card's.
  
* This card has some [[counterpart]]s:
+
* This monster and "[[Decode Talker]]" are the first ace monsters of a spin-off protagonist whose [[Type]] is neither [[Dragon]] nor [[Warrior]], thus breaking the pattern of the spin-off protagonists' ace monsters (though "Firewall Dragon" does resemble a Dragon and "Decode Talker" does resemble a Warrior, so they only break the pattern semantically).
** 2 downgraded [[Link Monster|Link]]-2 forms: "[[Proxy Dragon]]" and "[[Security Dragon]]".
+
** It is also the first time a protagonist uses a newly created Type (in this case, [[Cyberse]]).
** An [[Xyz Monster|Xyz]] counterpart: "[[Firewall eXceed Dragon]]".
+
** This card eventually replacing the 2300 ATK "Decode Talker" as Yusaku's ace monster mirrors both Jaden Yuki's "[[Elemental HERO Neos]]", who eventually replaced the 2100 ATK "[[Elemental HERO Flame Wingman]]", and Yusei Fudo's "Stardust Dragon", who eventually replaced the 2300 ATK "[[Junk Warrior]]".
** 3 [[Card evolutions|upgraded]] forms: "[[Firewall Dragon Darkfluid]]", "[[Firewall Dragon Darkfluid - Neo Tempest Terahertz]]", and "[[Firewall Dragon Singularity]]".
+
** Therefore the thematics of "Firewall Dragon" which, focus on recovery and Summoning back monsters to strengthen the field by its presence, can be similar to the effect of "Stardust Dragon" to protect the field from any harmful effect by its presence and Summoning itself back to strengthen the field.
 +
*** Those similarities are also applied to their rival monsters "[[Borreload Dragon]]" and "[[Red Dragon Archfiend]]", which are their complete foils and focus mainly to the destruction of the field to reign supreme by itself.
 +
*** This card also opposes "Borreload Dragon", as both monsters feature opposing stances and color schemes similar to "Stardust Dragon" and "Red Dragon Archfiend." Furthermore, their effects also oppose each other, as "Firewall" willingly protects other monsters, while "Borreload" forcefully controls other monsters before sending them to the Graveyard.
  
* This monster is one of the [[signature card]]s of [[Yusaku Fujiki]]/Playmaker in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS]]'' anime, alongside "[[Decode Talker (anime)|Decode Talker]]".
+
* This monster's first artwork features a pose similar to the artwork of "Stardust Dragon", while its second artwork is the form it "transitions" into in order to attack.
** This card has the same [[ATK]] (2500) as the signature cards of the  other anime protagonists (with the exception of [[Yuga Ohdo]]'s "[[Sevens Road Magician (anime)|Sevens Road Magician]]"): [[Yugi Muto]]'s "[[Dark Magician (anime)|Dark Magician]]", [[Jaden Yuki]]'s "[[Elemental Hero Neos (anime)|Elemental HERO Neos]]", [[Yusei Fudo]]'s "[[Stardust Dragon (anime)|Stardust Dragon]]", [[Yuma Tsukumo]]'s "[[Number 39: Utopia (anime)|Number 39: Utopia]]", [[Yuya Sakaki]]'s "[[Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (anime)|Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon]]" and [[Yudias Velgear]]'s "[[Galactica Oblivion (anime)|Galactica Oblivion]]".
 
** Although this monster was Yusaku's signature card, it was used sparingly in the anime: it was only Summoned five times before it became [[Forbidden]] in the ''[[OCG]]''/''[[TCG]]''.
 
  
* This card and "[[Decode Talker]]" are the first ace monsters of a spin-off anime protagonist to not be either [[Dragon]] or [[Warrior]].
