Trivia

  • In Japanese, Morgana notably uses the archaic personal pronoun wagahai (吾輩, though spelled out in katakana as ワガハイ) to refer to himself. This pronoun, which is formal and carries the connotation of perceived nobility and self-importance, is largely obsolete in modern usage, but can still be seen in fiction. This is usually due to a common association with the novel I Am a Cat (Japanese: 吾輩は猫である, romanized Wagahai wa neko de aru) by Natsume Sōseki, in which it is used to convey the title character's perceived superiority to humans. Morgana's usage of the pronoun not only references this association and his intended "gentlemanliness", but his frequent retort that "I am not a cat!" (Japanese: ワガハイは猫じゃねえ!, romanized Wagahai wa neko ja nē!) is the very opposite of the book's title, and exemplifies his speech using ironically informal contractions such as ja nē for de wa nai ("am not").
  • In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, one of the lines that play during Joker's Final Smash is edited to fit Ultimate's E10+ rating, with "Time for some bloodshed!" being changed to "Time for some brutality!"
  • The visual effect when Morgana runs in the Metaverse is an idea intended to contrast reality with unreality.[2]
