Trivia
- One of Irene's abilities is to fling her fake nails at her opponents; possibly an inspiration for Part 7' s Johnny Joestar's stand ability.
- Several of the characters in the manga have similar appearances and were probable influences of those from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:
- Roba's gang members have headgear similar to the Pillar Men.
- Michael has a strong resemblance to Jonathan Joestar.
- The man in the bar's hairstyle is similar to Stroheim's.
- The concept of using makeup for superpowered appearance change would later be revisited with Cinderella.
- Araki admits to be embarrassed of Irene's character since it reflects his "ignorance of women" during his youth, portraying stereotypes and even brief nudity. He was only able to realize this prior to his marriage.[3]
- JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven contains a reference to Gorgeous Irene, as the title of an opera advertised in the Naples Station stage.
- Jolyne's counterpart's name is inspired by this manga.
- In Chapter 1 of Phantom Blood, Dio Brando is seen reading a book bearing the title "Gorgeous Irene" as a self-reference.
