Trivia
Summary
Hilmungardr seems to be based on the Jörmungandr in Norse Mythology. The switch from "Jör" (ヨル, Yoru?) to "Hil" (ヒル, Hiru?) is likely a pun on the Japanese words for "night" (夜, yoru?) and "day" (昼, hiru?). The stripes along Hilmungardr's back resemble those on Nola and Kashigami, two similarly giant snakes.
