Trivia

  • Unlike previous attacks which had an electricity basis in tune with her association with the Roman god of thunder, Jupiter, this attack was a reference to the fact that the oak tree was sacred to Jupiter. It was also a play on the association with wood (木) in the Japanese writing of the planet Jupiter.
