- This card and "Kuraz the Light Monarch" are the only "Monarchs" to not have an effect that activates only when they are Tribute Summoned. They are also the only "Monarchs" that have attack-restriction effects.
- This card's name may be based on the word dirge, which means a mournful song.
- This card can be considered a Dark counterpart to "Kuraz the Light Monarch", due to their opposite names and effects, as well as their late releases compared to the original 6 "Monarch" monsters.
- This monster appears in the artwork of "High Half" and "Tribute Carnival".
