Card layout

Series 10 layout
Otherwise, the layout is largely unchanged, save for the embossed effect defining the box containing the card name and Attribute now being sharp and square like the card artwork border, rather than being soft and curved like previous layouts, in addition to an added embossing effect just before a card's grey border. Also, [[Normal Monster]]s now have "Normal" explicitly written in the type line, in order to differentiate them from [[Non-Effect Monster]]s. In addition, for foil cards (except for OCG [[Holographic Rare]] cards with [[Xyz Monster]]s being the only exception), the Attribute Icon and [[Level]]/[[Rank]] stars for Monsters as well as the Spell/Trap Icon were made transparent to make them shine from the foil underneath. The Attribute icons now have a very faint outline that is somewhat a darker version of their dominant color (for example, the DARK icon has a faint purple outline), and the text on them is also slightly realigned; longer TCG text, which is printed in white, is prone to flowing out of the edge of the icon, therefore is lightly outlined to stand out only on white-backgrounded [[Synchro Monster]] Cards. The height of the Pendulum Effect text box is now fixed rather than variable for short and long text.
 
Since the start of Series 10, there have been several unusual characters have OCG card names. Two particular ones include Ϝ (Greek digamma) and ∀ (math symbol meaning "for all"). The Korean fonts cannot accommodate these characaters, which have been only customly added to the Japanese fonts, therefore the Korean prints of the cards that contain them simply use the Japanese fonts.
The ''OCG'' card text received a couple of minor adjustments. If a card or effect with a specific [[card name]] can only be activated a [[Only once per turn|limited number of times per turn]], such as "[[Sangan]]", the card is referred to as このカード名の (''this card's name'') rather than the specific name of the card. The [[Extra Deck]] is abbreviated as "EXデッキ" (''Extra Deck'').
