This monster appears in the artworks of Frontline Base, Centrifugal Field, Formation Union, Dark Contract with the Yamimakai and Fusion Deployment.
This monster is wearing Metalsilver Armor.
This is one of only two monsters that has two different Union monsters designed for its use - the other is X-Head Cannon, which has identical stats.
The two monsters that are designed to be equipped to this monster are Pitch-Dark Dragon and Kiryu.
Outside of the A-to-Z monsters, this is the only monster that is a Fusion Material Monster for a Fusion Monster (Dark Blade the Dragon Knight) along with one of its Union monsters (Pitch-Dark Dragon).
This card's English flavor text mentions Dark World. This is a translation error, as its Japanese text instead references Makai (闇魔界), which implies that this monster serves King of Yamimakai.
This monster has a retrained version: Dark Blade the Captain of the Evil World.
This monster bears a strong resemblance to Underworld Fighter Balmung. Both have the same Type, Level, Attribute, and they wear similar armor.

Previously Official Rulings
Bottomless Trap Hole: Only the monster(s) that triggered "Bottomless Trap Hole" by being Normal / Flip / Special Summoned can be destroyed & removed from play by "Bottomless Trap Hole's" effect.
Example: Player A Normal Summons "Dark Blade", and Player B activates "Bottomless Trap Hole" in response (Chain Link 1), then Player A chains the effect of his face-up "Ultimate Offering" to Tribute "Dark Blade" for "Summoned Skull" (Chain Link 2). "Ultimate Offering's" effect resolves first, and "Dark Blade" is Tributed for "Summoned Skull". Then the effect of "Bottomless Trap Hole" disappears because the monster it would have applied to is no longer on the field.
Combination Attack: If "Dark Blade", equipped with "Kiryu" and "Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce", attacks twice using "Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce"s effect, then you use "Combination Attack" to detach "Kiryu" from "Dark Blade", both monsters can attack again once each. "Dark Blade" cannot attack another 2 times because it has already attacked twice.
Kiryu: If you Tribute "Kiryu" while it is equipped to "Dark Blade", you cannot then use "Super Rejuvenation" and count "Kiryu" as a Dragon-Type monster.
Kiryu: If you Tribute "Kiryu" while equipped to "Dark Blade", "Dark Blade" no longer gets the ATK increase from "Kiryu" as it is no longer equipped with it.
Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce: If "Dark Blade" equipped with "Kiryu" is also equipped with "Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce", and attacks twice, and "Kiryu" is then "detached" with "Combination Attack", "Dark Blade" can attack 1 more time (not 2 more times).
