Shuffling

• Both Nezbitt (in episode 106) and Arkana use the "shotgun shuffle" technique to shuffle their Decks, albeit the latter for cheating.
  • Possibly Zigfried von Schroeder as well (Yu-Gi-Oh! episode 191191: "Down in Flames - Part 2"), but all that's seen is the cascade effect (during the End Phase, due to "Ride of the Valkyries".

Card Design

• "Alien Shocktrooper" seems to have been "nerfed" to become an EARTH monster, whereas it should have been a WATER monster. This is supported by the vast majority of "Alien" monsters having orbs that match their Attributes, as well as "Alien Shocktrooper" being an advanced form of "Alien Hunter" (the latter being WATER with blue orbs as well).
  • There may be some validity to this reasoning, since "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" was in the same set as this card, and "Skreech" was only just released in the next pack. This could be compounded with "Gagagigo". Or, maybe they didn't want "Gagagigo" outclassed as a Normal WATER Reptile-Type monster.

• "Chaos Zone" + "King of the Skull Servants"

Kazuki manga references

• Mudora = mudra?
• Cestus of Dagla = Dogra?
• Melchid the Four-Face Beast = Melkite?
• Nuvia the Wicked = Nubia?
• Hannibal Necromancer = Hannibal?
• Juragedo = 呪羅外道 + vajra + whatever the gedo part comes from
  • Va[jra] = [Jura]gedo
  • Juragedo in this kanji line0up literally means like "cursed [word used in religious texts] heretic/demon"
    • 外道/gedou's heretic meaning is also more used for Buddhism (so the entire thing has a Buddhist religious theme, but is "evil and stuff")
