*'''Diangelion''' (διαγγέλιον) is a Greek term that can be found in biblical texts (for example, the Greek versions of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauline_epistles Pauline Epistles] found [https://books.google.be/books?id=Sh5UAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA8&lpg=PA8&dq=%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%B3%CE%B3%CE%AD%CE%BB%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BD&source=bl&ots=5qXsF08fqE&sig=ACfU3U27RaJ_YB8nqoPW0PzToHSUi-rNeQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiG2_TZ-8nrAhWMyaQKHfZSBDgQ6AEwEHoECAEQAQ#v=onepage&q=%CE%B4%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%B3%CE%B3%CE%AD%CE%BB%CE%B9%CE%BF%CE%BD&f=false here]), that is often simply translated as "message". It is similar in etymology to the term εὐαγγέλιον (evangelion: gospel, good news). The word is composed of the prefix δι- and the root αγγέλιον (message), which can be translated in various ways depending on the way the prefix is interpreted. "Two Messengers", from δύο- (for "two"), "Different/Dissonant Messengers", from δῐᾰ́- (for "through, in different ways") or possibly even "Diabolic Messenger", as an apocope with διάβολος ("diabolic, devil").

*While both [[Catastrophe]] and [[Innocent]] build on the concept of two characters fighting as one in their own unique ways, '''Diangelion''' puts a dark twist on the idea, with '''Lu''' practically assimilating '''Ciel''' for her own powers.

**'''Ciel''' is little more than an extension of '''Lu''''s power at this point, with his voice lines all being very apologetic or subdued while Lu's are extremely grand and sadistic, especially in the Hyper Active, [[Archon Ray]], where Ciel merely grunts as Lu coerces him maniacally into destroying everything for her.

*The Manic Demon Combination cut-in will only be used if the class's proper cut-in is equipped in the Hyper Active [[Character Customization System|Customization]] slot. Using any other custom cut-in will not trigger the Manic Demon cut-in.

*'''[[wikipedia:en:Iblis|Iblis]]''' is the Islamic version of Satan.

*'''Iblis''' is the only Lu not to have grown any wings, including in her '''Manic Demon Form'''. Her horns also do not seem to grow further.

**This is likely due to her gaining the ability to return to her true form via the '''Manic Demon Form''', causing her to neglect advancing the power of her younger form.

*'''Iblis''''s gauntlets are one of few promotional weapons that are animated, particularly the flames on her gauntlets.

*'''Anular''' is Spanish and means either '''annular''', '''ring finger''' or '''to annul'''.

*Both of '''Anular''''s scleras are completely black now, and he grows a second, incomplete horn, signifying his unwilling descent further down the demon path.
