Card Trivia:Thorn of Malice
- This card's artwork is similar to that of "Closed Forest".
- Incidentally, in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime, both cards are used by Signers (this card by Akiza Izinski and "Closed Forest" by Devack, who is a Dark Signer.) Moreover coincidentally, both cards' artworks possess antipodal color schemes in respect to both types of Signers, with this card's having mostly lighter colors, whereas "Closed Forest"'s has mostly darker colors.)
- This card, like "Black Rose Dragon", references the personality of Akiza Izinski. This card represents the pain she felt from her past and how she wished to take it out on others.
- This card shares similarities with "Double Tool C&D" in that it can only be equipped to a specific Signer Dragon or a certain type of monster, in this case "Black Rose Dragon" or Plant-Type monsters.
