Toon monsters (トゥーンモンスター Tūnmonsutā) are cartoonized counterparts of existing monsters, having some reliance on the card "Toon World".

Originally, in the manga and anime, Toon monsters were formed by having the effect of "Toon World" applied to non-Toon monsters. These Toon monsters had the ability to dodge attacks.

In the OCG and TCG, Toon is an ability. Toon monsters exist as separate cards than their non-Toon counterpart, with whom they share no direct in-game relationship. They are capable of attacking the opponent directly and while they benefit from the card "Toon World", they can be used without it. There are five classes of "Toon monsters", dubbed by fans Class A, B, C, D, and E.

All Toon monsters belong to the "Toon" archetype (including "Manga Ryu-Ran", since its Japanese name contains トゥーン).

Toon monsters were the first Effect Monsters with an ability to be introduced, debuting in Spell Ruler. While Flip monsters (as Flip Effect Monsters) were introduced earlier, they were not treated as having an ability until much later.

Classes of Toon monster

  • Must first Special Summon itself from the hand, by Tributing the same number of monsters as for a Tribute Summon of a monster with its original Level (the number is specified in its card text), while you control "Toon World".
