Trivia

 * Vector is similar to Jafar from Aladdin and Orochimaru from Naruto, they are intelligent and powerful beings with the ability to transform into a giant snake. They are also insane, deceitful and malicious.
 * Vector shares his name with Vector Perkins from Despicable Me. He is also similar to said character, as they are very smart, but also childish. They even answer to their father figures, who are arguably worse than them.
 * In his Barian form he has the same markings on his eyes just like Darth Bane & Darth Zannah
 * Vector's name gets its origins from the star Gamma Ursae Majoris, which is also known as Phecda.
 * He despised Nash and Marin because they were leaders of the Seven Barian Emperors and due to them being enemies in their past lives.
 * Vector served as the Bigger Bad in ZEXAL I (Dr. Faker and Tron served as the Big Bad Ensemble, but he was using both of them to further his own goals) prior to becoming the main antagonist in ZEXAL II. Even though Don Thousand is the true main antagonist of the entire series, Vector served as The Heavy because he drove the storyline and manipulated everyone for his own gain.
