Trivia[]
- The character Alopex from IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic series was created as a direct homage to Ninjara. Like Ninjara, she is an anthropomorphic fox (although she is a mutant rather than a mystical creature), and initially serves as an enemy to the Turtles before reforming herself and beginning a relationship with Raphael.
- Additionally, when Alopex appeared in the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series, her design and appearance resemble Ninjara's, possibly as a reference to her.
