Trivia
- Sleeping Lion can be seen in the Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix secret ending, "Birth by sleep", after Aqua casts a Reflect-like spell on Terra. It can also be seen stuck in the ground when Master Xehanort summons the storm of Keyblades.
- Because of the +5 strength bonus and Combo Plus ability, this keyblade is quite useful with Valor Form throughout the entire game.
