Changes: Card Trivia:Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon

Latest revision as of 17:43, 2 May 2022

This monster is the cover card for The New Challengers.

This monster is the Xyz counterpart of "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon", "Clear Wing Synchro Dragon", and "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon".
- The orbs on its wings that start to glow before it attacks are similar to the ones on "Odd-Eyes" that do the same thing.
  - "Clear Wing" and "Starving Venom" also show a change on their wing.
- In the anime, the signature users of all four monsters Yuya, Yuto, Yugo and Yuri also share very similar appearances to the point that they were mistaken for each other.
- This monster's initial roar is the same as that of "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon", just as how "Odd-Eyes" reuses the roar of "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" and "Clear Wing" reuses the roar of "Number 99: Utopic Dragon".
  - However it abandons this roar for the simple snarl that also played during its initial Summoning in later appearances. This second roar is reused from the Japanese version of Number 17: Leviathan Dragon.
- Also, like "Clear Wing" and "Starving Venom", its effect allows it to gain ATK dependent on the target of its effect.
- Like how its counterparts are a reference to their owner's origin, "Dark Rebellion" represents Z-ARC's vengeance on humanity, which is reflected by Yuto's actions against Duel Academy.

This card has two evolved forms in "Dark Requiem Xyz Dragon" and "Arc Rebellion Xyz Dragon".
- It also shares two hybrid evolved forms with "Odd-Eyes" in "Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon" and "Odd-Eyes Raging Dragon". The former also has a retrained counterpart in "Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon Overlord".

This card is the first Xyz Monster to be Summoned in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime.
- It is also the first Xyz Monster to be used by Yuya Sakaki, the series' main character.

This card's artwork has this monster in a pose similar to the art of "Number 39: Utopia" and shares the same stats. Its effect instead references "Number 96: Dark Mist".
- A reference to Number 96 being Astral's "counterpart"

This card has several distinctions from the other "Four Dimension Dragons".
- It is the only member to not have a silhouette before it is revealed. However, it did have a silhouette when it first clashed with "Clear Wing" in episode 18.
  - According to director Katsumi Ono, the above scene was intended to take place in episode 1 before "Dark Rebellion" physically debuted in episode 7.
- As an Xyz Monster, it is the only member to possess a Rank instead of a Level.
- It is the only member to possess only one effect. (As a Pendulum Monster, "Odd-Eyes" has both a Pendulum Effect (two in the TCG/OCG) and a Monster effect.) It can, however, use its effect more than once per turn.
- It is the only member to appear in both the anime and the manga as the rest are replaced by their manga counterparts. However, its appearance is omitted in later chapters.
- It is the only member whose name doesn't have body part motif, compared to the other three dragons (Odd-"Eyes", Clear "Wing", and Starving "Venom").
  - As such it is the only dragon whose name doesn't correspond to its Magician's counterpart.
