The single fin on Gallade's head resembles the helmet worn by {{wp|murmillo}}-class Roman {{wp|gladiator}}s, or the {{wp|Corinthian helmet}} with a horsehair crest worn by Greek {{wp|hoplite}}s. It may also be based on medieval {{wp|knight}}s. Additionally, its battle stances in various media resemble the ''en garde'' position and parries of modern {{wp|fencing}}.
