Card Trivia:Meklord Emperor Granel


 * Grannel, being the biggest in overall size compared to Wisel and Skiel, may be a rudimentary representation of Jakob as being the largest member of the Three Emperors of Yliaster.


 * Based on original ATK, this appears to be the weakest of the Machine Emperors. However, one may consider it the strongest because of its 3 effects:
 * If used in a proper deck like a Psychic or Fairy deck, its ATK can greatly increase past the ATK of Machine Emperor Wisel Infinity.
 * Its ability to Special Summon its equipped Synchro Monster can cause consternation to your opponent, since you gain an extra monster with its effects.
 * Unlike Skiel and Wisel, other monsters can attack while this card is face-up on the field.


 * In the anime, this is the only Machine Emperor whose ATK and DEF are not equal to the sum of the ATK and DEF of the Wisel, Skiel, and Grannel Monsters that the player controls.


 * The ATK/DEF gaining based on LP was changed from the anime and OCG: In the anime, this card gains ATK/DEF equal to your current LP while the OCG version gains ATK/DEF equal to half of your current LP.
 * This is due to the fact that during a normal duel in the anime, players start with 4000 Life Points, while in the OCG/TCG, players start with 8000 Life Points.


 * This is the first Machine Emperor in the anime to be featured in the CGI style in which the Earthbound Immortal monsters were depicted, in contrast to Wisel and Skiel being shown in the traditional artwork style.


 * The effect of this card that Special Summons Synchro Monsters equipped to it may possibly be derived from the effects of "Grannel Guard" and "Grannel Attack" in the anime, which both treat a Synchro Monster equipped to Grannel as a monster for attacking or defending, though temporarily.
