## Trivia

* Her name, Sango (珊瑚), is the Japanese word for Coral, symbolising her connection to water.
* Their epithet, Gentei (玄帝), is composed by "gen" (玄) of Genbu and "tei" (帝) which means sovereign, emperor, or monarch in general. Literal translation of this word is "monarch of Gen", which is meaningless. However the character "gen" (玄) of Genbu can be also read as kuro (くろ *kuro*) which means black. Therefore, Gentei (玄帝) is best translated as black monarch.
