• "Tengu" (or "heavenly dogs") are a class of supernatural creatures found in Japanese folklore, art, theater, and literature. Although they take their name from a dog-like Chinese demon (Tiangou), the tengu were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey, and they are traditionally depicted with both human and avian characteristics.

• This monster carries a short sword (Wakizashi) and a long sword (Katana), similar to the samurai of Japanese tradition.

• This card is the second TCG-exclusive card to be restricted in any way (after "Allure of Darkness"), and the first that was not the result of a mid-format change ("Allure" was Semi-Limited in May 2008).
  • It is also the first TCG-exclusive card, at the time, to be on the OCG Forbidden/Limited Lists before its release in Extra Pack 2012.
