*The name "Vitreous" comes from [[wikipedia:Vitreous humour|Vitreous humor]], the clear gel found inside the eyeballs of vertebrates. | *The name "Vitreous" comes from [[wikipedia:Vitreous humour|Vitreous humor]], the clear gel found inside the eyeballs of vertebrates. | ||
*Vitreous is called "Gerudōga" (Geldogger is a rough translation) in Japanese. The suffix ''-dogger'', in addition to its eyeball appearance, connects it to [[Digdogger]], a recurring boss in the [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''Zelda'' series]]. The prefix ''gel-'', pronounced with a hard G sound, is likely a reference to the [[Gel]] enemies, whose name is pronounced with the same sound in Japanese rather than like the English word "gel." The beginning of the full name, possibly coincidentally, also sounds like a contraction of the ''geld-'' prefixes of the desert-dwelling enemies [[Geldarm]] and [[Geldman]]; although Vitreous is found in a swamp, its location in the Dark World corresponds to the Light World's Desert of Mystery, which contains the Geldman enemies. | *Vitreous is called "Gerudōga" (Geldogger is a rough translation) in Japanese.

*In the acidic liquid, it is noticable that there are 4 darker eyeballs, who do not do anything. They remain in the green acid even after Vitreous is defeated. | |||
