- This is a cover card of Controller of Chaos.
- This monster appears in the artwork of "Chaos Seed".
- This card has a retrained version: "Chaos Emperor, the Dragon of Armageddon".
- This card's naming scheme, DARK Attribute, and the color of the circle in the background can be seen as the polar opposite of "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning".
- The anime-exclusive card "Chaos End Ruler - Ruler of the Beginning and the End" is a more powerful counterpart of both cards.
- "Chthonian Emperor Dragon" has its appearance and TCG name based on this card.
- According to a V Jump article, "Ten Thousand Dragon" is based on this card.
- This card is arguably responsible for the existence of the Forbidden status. Due to this card's effect, it played a crucial role in the Yata-Garasu Lockdown, which led to Konami creating the Forbidden status in August 2004.
- In fact, this card and "Victory Dragon" share some similarities, both being Level 8 DARK Dragons that had a crucial role in the game's history. "Victory Dragon" started the Match Winner series, while this card led to the Forbidden status being made.
- This card is the first Dragon monster to have been Forbidden.
- Both "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning" and this card have less powerful versions of themselves in the form of "Sky Scourge" counterparts, "Sky Scourge Enrise" and "Sky Scourge Norleras" respectively. The "Sky Scourge" monsters have similar effects and Summoning requirements to the "Envoy" duo as well, although the banishing of monsters from the Graveyard is both Type and Attribute specific.
- In addition to the "Sky Scourge" cards, "Ruin, Queen of Oblivion" and "Demise, King of Armageddon" have effects based on the "Envoy" duo, with the latter based on this card.
- In the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime, Bastion Misawa states that this card is so powerful that it has been banned from official tournaments, making it one of the few cards that was Forbidden both in the anime and the real-life card game.
- Oddly enough, despite this Kaiba uses this card against Zigfried von Schroeder during the Grand Championship arc in the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime, suggesting that either this card was banned after this Duel occurred or that it didn't matter since their Duel wasn't an official match of the tournament.
- This is one of the only five known Monster Cards that have the ability to completely get rid of all the opponent's cards from their hand and field, the other four being "Sky Scourge Norleras", "Sophia, Goddess of Rebirth", "Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo-Daedalus", and "Tierra, Source of Destruction".
