Mentions as "Magic Type"
Sugoroku Mutou mentioned the Type, "Magic-Users", as a group entity distinct from "monsters" that players were able to Summon. And explained that it comprises four Types, each of which is strong against one of the others.[1] Despite the distinction from "monster", cards belonging to these Types are described as monsters in later appearances.
Dark Yugi explained that only ground units may pass through the Labyrinth and listed a number of Types, whose monsters are typically fit that criteria, including Warrior, Knight, Magic-User and Beast. (In the English manga, he instead mentions Warrior, Beast-Warrior, and Spellcaster.)[2]
The card "Flames of the Archfiend" requires a Magic-User-Type monster to activate. "Archfiend of Gilfer" qualifies as such a monster. (The English manga instead says that it requires an "Archfiend" monster.)[3]
Mentions as "Magician"
The following cards are considered to be Magicians (魔術師), evidenced by characters using them with Magician support cards.
The following cards require a Magician to use:
- "Magical Hats"
- "Magic Cylinder"
- "Magic Formula"
- "Diffusion Wave-Motion"
- "Dimension Magic"
- "Magician's Circle"
In the Japanese Yu-Gi-Oh! anime, all of the above, with the exception of "Diffusion Wave-Motion", "Dimension Magic" and "Magician's Circle", retained their manga text, including mentions of the word "Magician".
Other games
The Type does not exist in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game or Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game. However its sub-Types, Fiend and Illusion, do exist and the remainder of its representation is largely replaced with the Spellcaster Type.
The four sub-Types also exist in the Bandai Yu-Gi-Oh! Carddass along with a fifth Type; Dragon Magic.
