"Clear" (クリアー Kuriā) is a theme of DARK monsters used by Yusuke Fujiwara under the possession of Nightshroud in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. It is an archetype in the anime, but a series defined by mentioning "Clear World" in the OCG/TCG.

In the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime and the Yu-Gi-Oh! Tag Force video game series, the "Clear" monsters are treated as not having an Attribute while they are face-up on the field, which prevents the player from having their gameplay impacted by the negative effects of "Clear World". In the OCG/TCG, "Clear" monsters instead share an effect that makes the player unaffected by the effects of "Clear World" regardless of which Attributes they control.

"Clear World" and "Clear Vice Dragon" were released in Japan with Limited Edition 15 and in the TCG in Stardust Overdrive, making them the only members of the theme for a long time. The remaining monsters and "Clear Wall" were released in Animation Chronicle 2024, introduced as a series which mentions "Clear World" in their effects.

Playing style[edit]

The "Clear" theme is a stun Deck centered around their Field Spell Card "Clear World", which inflicts both players a variety of negative effects while controlling monsters of a specific Attribute(s). The monsters in this theme share an effect that makes the player unaffected by the effects of "Clear World", while "Clear Wall" causes all negative effects to apply to the opponent, regardless of which Attributes they control. In addition, "Clear Vicious Knight" restricts the opponent further by preventing them from activating the effects of their Special Summoned monsters with lower ATK than it; combined with its effect to gain ATK equal to the highest original ATK they control, this makes it effectively impossible to activate the effects of those monsters unless other ATK modification effects are in play.

Recommended cards[edit]

Weaknesses[edit]

  • Unlike in the anime and the Tag Force games, "Clear" monsters do not have an effect to remove their Attribute, leaving them vulnerable to other anti-Attribute and anti-DARK cards.
  • "Clear Vicious Knight" can only apply its effect to prevent effect activations if it was Tribute Summoned, so effects that prevent Tributes, such as "Mask of Restrict" or "Zombie World", can prevent it from using this effect.
  • "Skill Drain" can negate the monsters' effects to protect the player from "Clear World", making them vulnerable to its anti-DARK effect and possibly preventing them from attacking.
  • The theme's monsters lack any decent form of protection against card effects which makes it easy for cards like "Lightning Storm" or "Raigeki" to decimate their board.
