  • The kanji Shachiō (赦俿王, lit. "Amnesty King") in this card's Japanese name is similar to Shachō (社長, lit. "company president"/"manager").
    • This card's Japanese name, "Des Machina" is also a pun on "Death" and "Deus Machina", derived from the term "Deus Ex Machina", a.k.a. "god from the machine", referring to a common plot device in fiction where a difficult problem is solved in an unexpected, sudden manner.
    • This monster may be based on a "Yatoware-shachō" (雇われ社長, lit. "hired president"), a salaryman who is entrusted with the management of a company by the shareholder. The position typically lacks actual authority despite the burden of accountability.
