• This monster appears in the artworks of "Light Barrier" and "The Sky Lord".

• This monster is based on the Major Arcana Tarot card, The World.
  • This monster's number "XXI" and original ATK and DEF (3100) reference how The World is the twenty-first trump card of the Major Arcana Tarot.
  • Alternatively, this monster may be based on Dio Brando's Stand, "The World" in the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga and anime series, which has the ability to stop time, similar to this monster's effect of skipping the opponent's next turn.
