Card Trivia:Chimeratech Overdragon

- In the Japanese version, the attack of "Chimeratech Overdragon" is called "Evolution Result Burst."
- This card has a similar counterpart called "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon".
- Whereas all of the "Cyber Dragon" Fusions with "Cyber" in their name are LIGHT Attribute, both "Cyber Dragon" Fusions with "Chimeratech" in their names are DARK Attribute instead.
- Similarly, while all "Cyber Dragon" cards include the phrase "Evolution Burst" in their attack names, both "Chimeratech" monsters include "Evolution Result" instead.
- Both this card and "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon" originate from the 'Chimaera', a mythical beast who had the head of a lion, goat and snake. More recently, 'chimaera' refers to the idea of combining things that occur naturally, much like both monsters are fused from varying Machine-Type monsters. Their design may also be based on the Hydra or the Orochi.
- "Chimeratech Overdragon" is the only "Cyber Dragon" Fusion in which all the heads are the same.
- It also similar to that of "Five-Headed Dragon"; both are multi-headed monsters that require multiple Fusion Material Monsters of their Type to Fusion Summon.
- Whereas all of the "Cyber Dragon" Fusions with "Cyber" in their name are LIGHT Attribute, both "Cyber Dragon" Fusions with "Chimeratech" in their names are DARK Attribute instead.
- In the anime, this card is depicted as having a head for each monster used in the Fusion Summon (e.g. six heads in its first appearance). It could also attack as many times (including direct attacks) as the amount of monsters used to play it; the TCG/OCG counterpart does not apply this to direct attacks.
