Trivia
- The Limbo is one of the boss songs of the second phase of the Lincle Kingdom event of beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle.
- The name STN is a variation of Satan, one of the seven princes of Hell, representing Wrath.
- In Abrahamic religion, Satan is an entity that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. Satan is also referred to as the devil, or Lucifer in Christianity.
- STN appears as a demon with a red and black armor who wields a bishop staff. He always summons a magic ring which appears behind him.
- When you miss a note, STN will use his staff to cast a fireball.
- If you fail to Normal Clear The Limbo, STN will teleport away.
- After STN explodes, the face of Neulakyussra temporarily appears.
- In beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle, STN erroneously didn't have one pair of wings. This was fixed in beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro.
- When The Limbo is played as a boss stage in Lincle Kingdom, the arcade LED ticker displays <WRATH>STN<IRA>.
- According to Tatsuya Shimizu, CYBER PUNK is related to the science fiction genre, and not the song genre itself.
- The Limbo's song title was suggested by the beatmania IIDX team.
- In the theology of the Catholic Church, Limbo ("edge of hell") is a speculative idea about the afterlife condition of those who die in Original Sin without being assigned to the Hell of the Damned.
- On STN's glyph, it is possible to read "Satan", which is written with a very small font at the side of the glyph.
- The Limbo is available in beatmania IIDX INFINITAS as part of the beatmania IIDX INFINITAS Music Pack vol.1 (beatmania IIDX INFINITAS 楽曲パック vol.1).
- The Limbo received LEGGENDARIA charts in beatmania IIDX 30 RESIDENT. They can be unlocked by fulfilling five of the requirements described in this article.
