** Despite the Sun being a source of light and life, this card is a [[DARK]] [[Fiend]] monster, while the background of its artwork depicts a [[wikipedia:Solar eclipse|solar eclipse]].
*** In the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' manga, this card was used by the central antagonist, [[Tragoedia (character)|Tragoedia]], the ''[[ka]]'' of an Ancient Egyptian astrologer, created out of his hatred towards them because of the court of [[Akhenamkhanen (manga)|Pharaoh Akhenamkhanen's]] involvement in the [[Kul Elna massacre|massacre]] of his home village of [[Kul Elna]]. It was created by Tragoedia (while possessing [[Mr. Phoenix]]) out of spite for the [[High Priests]] who worshipped the sun and sealed him away in his tablet, reflecting its stats and this monster's dark color scheme.
** This card's effects reference the daily cycle of the sun, where it sets and disappears from the horizon (reflected by its effect [[activate|activating]] when it is [[destroy]]ed) but will eventually arise and appear on the next day (reflected by its effect to [[Special Summon]] itself from the [[Graveyard]] during the player's next [[Standy Standby Phase]]). This is further explained and illustrated in the ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' manga.
* This is one of the few cards where its Japanese name consists of only English alphabetical characters and punctuation, excluding furigana characters. The others are "[[Destiny HERO - Plasma]]", "[[Destiny End Dragoon]]", "[[Assault Revival]]", "[[NEX]]", "[[ZERO-MAX]]", and the other [[Legendary Planet]] cards (except "[[Elemental HERO Terra Firma]]").
