- "Sarkoplag is a portmanteau of "Sarkophag" ("sarcophagus") and "plagen" ("to plague").
Origin[]
Sarcophacurse is based on the sarcophagus of famous Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, as well as the iconic super robot series Mazinger Z, which is also where this Yo-kai's face and Japanese name borrows from.
Sarcophacurse's Soultimate is based on the infamous Curse of the pharaohs, curses laid down to protect the pharaohs from potential tomb raiders. This phenomenon took root with the excavation of Tutankhamun's hidden tomb, in which where it was said that it took the lives of several people days after the excavation, including the leader of said excavation Howard Carter, even though his death was more than 10 years afterwards. .
Sarcophacurse’s design also invokes the Pretenders toys from Transformers franchise or Cofagrigus from Pokémon Black and White.
Trivia[]
- Due to text limitations, his name is shortened to "Sarchopha."
Sarcophacurse's true body
- Sarcophacurse's true body can be seen during his Soultimate.
- In episode 11 of the Y School Heroes series, a toy with similar looks to him is seen, though said toy borrows traits from Tetsujin 28-go instead (the basis of Robonyan 28) instead of Mazinger Z.
