* In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom]]'', the three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" are named Azrael, Ibris (a mistranslation of [[wikipedia:Devil (Islam)|Iblis]]), and Djibril. These are the Islamic names for the [[wikipedia:Destroying angel (Bible)|Angel of Death]], [[wikipedia:Satan|Satan]] ("Iblis"), and the angel [[wikipedia:Gabriel|Gabriel]], respectively. Azrael is an informal name, only occurring in non-religious sources (including both [[wikipedia:Sikhism|Sikhism]] and some Jewish lore as well), while Iblis is the lord of the [[wikipedia:jinn|jinn]], rather than the principal [[wikipedia:fallen angel|fallen angel]].
* This card is [[Seto Kaiba|Seto]]'s [[signature card]]. It shares its 3000 ATK with the rivals of other series, which are [[Chazz Princeton|Chazz]]'s "[[Armed Dragon LV10]]", [[Jack Atlas|Jack]]'s "[[Red Dragon Archfiend]]", [[Kite Tenjo|Kite]]'s "[[Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]]", [[Declan Akaba|Declan]]'s "[[D/D/D Doom King Armageddon]]" and [[RevolverVarus]]'s "[[Borreload Dragon]]". In the Viz translation of [[Seto Kaiba (manga)|Kaiba]]'s Duel against [[Ishizu Ishtar (manga)|Ishizu]], Kaiba states that the "Blue-Eyes" embodies his soul. Jack Atlas calls his "Red Dragon Archfiend" "waga tamashi," which translates as "my very soul" in the Japanese, and Kite has called "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" "his soul" (ore no tamashi).
* In the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' manga]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|anime]] series, there's a mysterious woman named [[Kisara]] that carries the spirit of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon. "[[Maiden with Eyes of Blue]]" is based on her.
