Card Trivia:Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu
Revision as of 00:32, 21 August 2011 by 76.89.255.67 (talk)
- This card is featured on "Earthbound Whirlwind's" artwork.
- This card has the highest DEF of all Winged Beast monsters, and is tied with "Earthbound Immortal Wiraqocha Rasca" and with "Blackwing - Aurora the Northern Lights" for the highest level.
- This card and "Earthbound Immortal Wiraqocha Rasca" are also the only Earthbound Immortals to share a type.
- The word Piscu may come from Pisco (Pisqu) which is Quechua for "little bird". It is also a Peruvian City, as well as a famous drink.
- Pisco City is located in the Ica Region, where the real life Nazca Lines are also located.
- This is the very first Earthbound Immortal to be introduced in Raging Battle, in terms of numeric card order.
- This is the only Earthbound Immortal to never have been a Featured Card in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.
- This is also the only Earthbound Immortal whose summons do not play the typical Earthbound Immortal theme, instead always playing the Dark Tuning theme.
- This Earthbound Immortal's design is based on the Hummingbird geoglyph of the Nazca Lines.
- This card is the only Earthbound Immortal that has a word in its name that is not capitalized.
- In the 5D's anime, this Immortal could symbolize Carly Carmine in several ways:
- In symbolism, one symbol of the hummingbird (what this Immortal resembles) is being a messenger. Although Carly primarily became a Dark Signer to avenge her defeat by the hands of Sayer, Carly prior to this has had "messages of the future" dictated to her in the form of her Fortune Fairies (as well as Misty's mind-reading) that all came true. Upon her "dark" transformation, she undertook this "messaging" role herself in foretelling Sayer's doom, which eventually comes to fruition when Sayer is defeated and sent to the Netherworld.
- Another symbol of the hummingbird is love, joy and beauty, assets that Carly seems to embody due to her "naive good girl" complex and her optimism before and after her Dark Signer ordeal.
- The hummingbird also represents not trying to dwell on the past but to move forward; this is evident when Carly temporarily regains her conscience after her duel with Sayer and figuring out how she became a Dark Signer and why she damaged the Arcadia Movement's HQ building. Misty would then comfort her in telling her to forget what led Carly to become a Dark Signer and to ask herself why she is one in the first place as well as to move forward in figuring out what issue in Carly's life led her to the darkness.
- "Aslla Piscu" comes from the word "Piscu" which in Latin means "fisherman" but erase the "s" and it becomes "Picu" which stands for "hummingbird". Aslla has no translation in Latin.
- This is a burn version of Elemental HERO Absolute Zero.
