Trivia
- In The Nighthawk Star, the Hawk demands Nighthawk remove the "hawk" from his name, suggesting he change his name to Ichizo.
- Similarly to Ichizo, Nighthawk seems to have mud dripping from its wings.
- Nighthawk is voiced by Kana Hanazawa, who also voices Kuroe in Magia Record. This further teases the possibility of it being related to Kuroe/Ichizo.
