Past[]
After Tang Sanzang freed Monkey King from Five Phases Mountain and put a circlet on his head. When Monkey King was disobedient, the circlet would tighten around his head.[1] Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing were also given circlets by Tang Sanzang after they became his disciples, though they lacked the tightening spell.
Monkie Kid: A Hero is Born[]
MK temporarily gained a circlet when he unlocked his powers and fought the Demon Bull King.
Pitiful Creatures[]
By taking the form of Ink Monkey King, the protective curse mocked Monkey King with the circlet as it turned down his speech about choosing his own decisions, making Monkey King when the circlet was used on him.
Collar the King[]

Trivia[]
- The circlet is also known as; the fillet, the golden headband, and the jingu quan (金箍圈).
- Early concept art and some set stickers depict the circlet with a crescent design rather than its current swirl. [2]
- This design somewhat resembles the circlet Li Jing uses on Monkey King, though his slightly resembles a pagoda's roof.
