Granel, being the biggest in overall size compared to Wisel and Skiel, may be a rudimentary representation of Jakob as being the largest member of the Three Emperors of Yliaster.
This is the first Meklord Emperor in the anime to be featured in the CGI style in which the Earthbound Immortal monsters were depicted, in contrast to Wisel and Skiel being shown in the traditional artwork style.
The effect of this card that Special Summons Synchro Monsters equipped to it may possibly be derived from the effects of Granel Guard and Granel Attack in the anime, which both treat a Synchro Monster equipped to Meklord Emperor Granel as a monster for attacking or defending, though temporarily.
Despite being formed of five monsters in the anime, like the other two Meklord Emperors, Granel's OCG/TCG effect does not restrict its controller's other monsters from attacking, unlike Wisel and Skiel.
This card appears in the artwork of Infinity Barrage, Meklord Assembly and Attack Cannon.
The three Meklords could refer to mind, body and spirit:
Meklord Emperor Granel - Body/Ground
Meklord Emperor Skiel - Spirit/Sky
Meklord Emperor Wisel - Mind/Humans
