Trivia

 * Shalltear Bloodfallen finds Spear Needles cute and continued to pet one despite the danger of its fur.
 * Players who hunted Spear Needles for their soft fur stealthily had to kill them in a single strike before the fur transformed. Thus, they were typically a much higher level than the monster.
 * One Spear Needle was held in a confining choke-hold by CZ2128 Delta.
 * In Overlord: The Undead Oh!, Ainz Ooal Gown considered the idea of pairing Hamsuke with a Spear Needle in hopes of breeding her.
 * In Mass for the Dead, Shizu was given her own Spear Needle that was summoned from Ashurbanipal to cheer her up after she mistook a mission to collect 'sheep' as actual sheep rather than humans for Demiurge.
