I used the explanation from Wikipedia as it seems to explain their origin better.-- HHTurtle  (Talk) 06:43, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

Im unsure about something. The monsters say "If this card can attack, it must attack" or this "This card must attack if possible". Would it be correct to say that if they are in Defense Position, they are unable to attack? Madmax0708 15:51, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, they can't attack if they are in defense position.-- HHTurtle  (Talk) 00:53, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Possible Engish Name?[edit]

Just out of curiosity, would it be possible that the english names will be converted from "Karakuri" to "Mechanical", kind of like how Mechanical Spider's name was previously Karakuri Spider in Japanese? For example, Burei, Karakuri Shogun could be renamed to Burei, Mechanical Shogun or something along those lines.--Sky Scourge God (talkcontribs) 00:09, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Probably.-- HHTurtle  (Talk) 00:10, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Surprise! They kept their original names: http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/products/bp-stbl.html

Well that pretty much answers my question. lol --Sky Scourge God (talkcontribs) 16:37, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

  • Since these monsters must attack if able, wouldn't it be appropriate to list some cards that either protect your lifepoints or increase your lifepoints when you take battle damage? I mean, realistically, it's going to happen that you have an attack position Karakuri out, and you're facing a much bigger monster. Ouch! Cards that come to mind are Waboku and Rainbow Life or even Blue Medicine. Also Magical Android and Thought Ruler Archfiend as suggestions for Synchro Monsters for the very same reason.

Must attack if able[edit]

I still don't get it. It says "must attack if able" on them all, but does it work if the monster is in defense position (I'm assuming not, however I fear it may be compulsory to change their battle position if they have not already changed position) Lugia61617 (talkcontribs) 18:33, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Deck Help Forum

Can you use "Prevention Star" with the "Karakuri" effects that switch them to defense mode? Will it work on them?

We Need to Change The Karakuri Page[edit]

Hey guys don't know WHY this hasn't been changed, but... here ya go. There isn't a dark type karakuri... karakuri spider is still earth type, he just helps DESTROY dark monsters. — This unsigned comment was made by 174.49.14.54 (talkcontribs)

  • Maybe it hasn't been changed because nobody CARES about it, it shouldn't be run and doesn't deserve more than a small mention (if even that) for only being a Karakuri in name. That being said, if you see a problem, feel free to edit and fix it.--YamiWheeler (talkcontribs) 13:12, June 11, 2012 (UTC)
