Trivia

• The name "Rche" is a variation of "Lucifer", one of the seven princes of Hell, representing pride.
  • Rche appears as a young, blonde angel.
    • When you miss a note, Rche will unleash an energy blast after turning into a goat.
    • After Rche dies, there will be a scene showing a feather from his wings falling into a pool of blood.
    • If you fail to Normal Clear Todestrieb, Rche will be shown holding the Earth in his hands, turning it red.
  • Rche's gender is often censored in supplemental material.
• When Todestrieb is played as a boss stage in Lincle Kingdom, the arcade LED ticker displays <PRIDE>RCHE<SUPERBIA>.
• Todestrieb is below 蛇神 in the songlist index, known for having songs sorted by composer, so it was speculated that Rche was a collaboration between DJ YOSHITAKA and TOMOSUKE. However, it was revealed in the beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK that Todestrieb was composed and arranged by just Tomosuke himself.
• In classical Freudian psychoanalytic theory, the death drive ("Todestrieb") is the drive towards death, self-destruction and the return to the inorganic.
• Todestrieb's song comments in the beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle website are written in German.
• On the Rche's glyph, it is possible to read "Lucifer", which is written with a very small font at the side of the glyph.
