** He may even be an [[Franchise/AssassinsCreed Assassin]], on the other hand...
* [[VideoGame/SamuraiShodown He's someone who may also be friends with a portrayal of Yagyuu Juubei (along with being able to perform more Izuna Drops than he usually does) while also having taken part in the battle against the demon Ambrosia]] within the [[Creator/SNKPlaymore SNKverse]], or [[VideoGame/WorldHeroes from another game also within that very universe as well]]. He became an ally of Galford this way.

** Finds it odd in that [[Creator/TakayaKuroda his voice]] is compared to both [[LightNovel/{{Durarara}} Simon]] and [[VideoGame/BionicCommando Nathan]] [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 "Rad" Spencer]]; on the latter end, he's getting annoyed of fellow gods telling him "YELL OUT 'BIONIC ARM' FOR US!"

* Being a Celtic, mermaid-like spirit, a number of gods and goddesses wondered if Saiorse had some sort of connection to the [[Pantheon/GenderAppearances similarly-named selkie]] in the Pantheon. William's explanation of Guardian Spirits put this to bed, though: the Spirits are {{Tulpa}} born of beliefs and prayers, not flesh-and-blood beings like Ben's sister. Besides, William's Saiorse is a merrow, not a selkie.

* Other than Ieyasu, William has a rather uneasy reaction towards Lady Maria for not only having the same name of [[CaptainErsatz a certain Portuguese witch, but also being similar in regards to her]] WeaponOfChoice [[{{Expy}} and her gothic looks]]. However, Maria has stated that it is only by appearance and never by intention as she has no intent on the Amrita business. Despite this, following Williams initial ascension, his attacks towards her has damaged the Astral Clocktower and forced Maria to brutally beat him many times just to give him some sense. Since then he has avoided taking her down but only because she has convinced him enough that she wasn't the witch he was trying to stop in the first place.

** Hayabusa: {{Action|Hero}} AntiHero ({{Nominal|Hero}}, {{Unscrupulous|Hero}} and {{Classical|AntiHero}} Variants), [[AwesomeMcCoolName Name Translates to "Dragon Falcon"]], [[WorldsBestWarrior Considered a "Super Ninja"]], WiseBeyondTheirYears, SamuraiShinobi, [[PossessionEqualsMastery Can Use Anything as a Weapon upon Obtaining It]], OneManArmy, MasterOfAll, GoodIsNotSoft

* Like his future life's daughter Chibiusa, he absolutely hates the primordial Lich, and it all has to do with a very similar villain in his world that once corrupted Chibiusa. Also sorely dislikes Chaos for corrupting Sailor Galaxia, who killed him and brought him back as her thrall same as every other Sailor Guardian not named Moon or Chibi. Being the one who most often gets possessed or brainwashed to turn against his lover and fellow heroes, possessor/parasite villains such as recent ascendees Baby and the Mage of the Beginning tend to earn his general ire as well. This has all only intensified since the return of several former adversaries, especially Queen Beryl and Death Phantom.

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/{{Villains}} Friday Monday]], Carrossea Doon, anyone who threatens Miss Margaret.

* Herald: '''Margaret Burton/[[spoiler:[[LiteralSplitPersonality Madlax/Laetitia]]]]''' (her mistress).

* Has undergone not [[VideoGame/TombRaiderLegend one]], but [[VideoGame/TombRaider2013 two]] revisions of the character. There were calls for her to redefine herself to be known other than just her looks. Not surprisingly, she busted through the PolygonCeiling with flying colors. She just needs to find the right take of her life.

* Is seen as a video game icon of UsefulNotes/TheFifthGenerationOfConsoleVideoGames. As such she has received accolades from the likes of Mario and Sonic (though the latter would admit it wasn't his favorite time because of... [[PolygonCeiling bad memories]]).
