"Jongleur-Ghoul Illusionist":

This card is the first Illusion Normal Monster, and is consequently the first Illusion monster to lack the effect of preventing monsters from being destroyed in battles involving itself.

The way this monster overlaps a white border in this card's artwork, and the Japanese flavor text using full hiragana and spaces instead of periods, likely references the presentation of cards in the earlier instalments of the GameBoy Duel Monsters video game series.

This card's Japanese name may come from "ジョングルール (jongleur)," "グルグル (guruguru)," and possibly "グール (ghoul)."
- A jongleur was a medieval entertainer who traveled from town to town, showcasing various skills. Skills included songs, music, juggling, and conjuring.
- "Guruguru" is a Japanese onomatopoeia for something swirling. This is referenced by the monster's flavor text mentioning its eyes being able to spin.
- Ghouls are evil spirits or phantoms.
