* The english English name of this monster means '''"Sea Dragon God"''', and is a literal transliteration of the kanji in the japanese Japanese name of this card. However, the ruby text above these kanji indicates that the japanese Japanese name should be read as ''Leviathan'', not ''Kairyūshin''.
* '''Leviathan''' ([[w:Hebrew language|Hebrew]]: לִוְיָתָן, <small>[[w:Hebrew language#Modern Hebrew|Standard]]</small> Liwyatan <small>[[w:Tiberian vocalization|Tiberian]]</small> Liwyāṯān ; "Twisted; coiled") is a Biblical sea monster referred to in the Old Testament (Psalm 74:13-14; Job 41; Isaiah 27:1). The word leviathan has become synonymous with any large sea monster or creature. In the novel [[w:Moby-Dick|Moby-Dick]] it refers to great whales, and in Modern Hebrew, it means simply "whale".
