Morpho Knight is an enigmatic character. Little is known about its motives, other than its desire to "judge" powerful entities, absorbing their souls in the process. The same can be said about its personality (if it even has any), though it is commonly referred to as a "fluttering fiend". Morpho Knight is primarily associated with death, rebirth, and the underworld — its design and flavor text reference many cultures' concepts of life after death, such as [[wikipedia:Butterfly#In culture|butterflies]], [[wikipedia:Ragnarök|Ragnarök]], [[wikipedia:Sukhavati|Sukhavati]], [[wikipedia:Yomi|Yomi]], and [[wikipedia:Phoenix (mythology)|the phoenix]], among many others. It utilizes fire as its element of choice in combat.}}</onlyinclude>{{:{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|transcludesection=lead}} | Morpho Knight is an enigmatic character.

When fought in The Ultimate Choice, Morpho Knight EX's splash screen is the only one that cannot be skipped. | In [[The Three Mage-Sisters]]' route, '''Morpho Knight EX''' is fought instead.

Morpho Knight EX's pause screen description is slightly more elaborate in the Japanese version. It is explained that the power it received from Galacta Knight has grown and fully become its own. This is also the case in the Korean and Chinese versions.<ref | Morpho Knight EX's pause screen description is slightly more elaborate in the Japanese version.
