There are many occasions in which a card, in the anime, may contradict its lore in the anime. These are usually due to errors on the writers' part.

Yu-Gi-Oh!

  • Magic Jammer - Discard 1 card. Negate all Lingering Spell Card Effects and destroy all Spell Cards on the field.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's anime lore was written in a way that it looked similar to the OCG lore. The anime effect of "Magical Hats" was a Normal Spell Card with a Lingering effect that lasts until all the hats are destroyed and Keith activated this card on his Draw Phase instead of when "Magical Hats" was activated.
  • Roulette Spider - Pay half your Life Points. Spin a wheel centered around the monster with the highest ATK on the field. After it stops spinning, that monster must attack in the direction "Roulette Spider" is pointing.
    • Reason for contradiction: Joey payed Life Points to activate this card despite that the written anime lore didn't say this.
  • Alligator's Sword Dragon - This card can attack your opponent directly if the only monsters they control are set monsters, EARTH monsters, WATER monsters, or FIRE monsters.
    • Reason for contradiction: Although this card's written anime lore is the same as the OCG lore, Joey was still able to use this card's effect even though Mako's monsters were set.
  • Mystical Refpanel - Activate only when your opponent activates a Spell Card. You may negate the effect of that card. At anytime, you can select and activate one of the following effects.
    ● Change the target of the Spell Card to another appropriate target. If the Spell Card was an Equip Spell Card, destroy it on the End Phase.
    ● Use the negated card from the Graveyard as you or your opponent's card.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card was saved for when Yugi needed it sometimes and this card could also affect Equip Spell Cards. Also Yugi could use "Meteor of Destruction" on either player with this card, but in the end he chose himself as he didn't want to see Joey die. Also "Mask of Brutality" was gone after "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" destroyed "Rogue Doll".
  • Cold Wave - This card can only be activated during your Main Phase 1. Until your next turn, you and your opponent cannot play or Set any Spell or Trap Cards.
    • Reason for contradiction: When Crump played the card, he played it after summoning "Giant Red Seasnake", but in the real game that would be impossible because this card can only be activated at the start of the controller's Main Phase 1 and nowhere else.
  • Cyber Jar - FLIP: Destroy all monsters on the field, then both players reveal the top 5 cards from their Decks, then Special Summon all revealed Level 4 or lower monsters in, face-up Attack Position, face-up Defense Position, or face-down Defense Position, also add any remaining cards to their hand. (If either player has less than 5 cards in their Deck, reveal as many as possible.)
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's effect was the same as the real card in the first two Duels it was used in. However in Kaiba's Duel with Leichter and Yami Yugi's Duel with Noah, the Defense Position monsters summoned by this card's effect were face-up instead of face-down.
  • Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon - Cannot be summoned unless you control a face-up "Toon World". This card cannot attack the turn it is Special Summoned. You must pay 500 Life Points to declare an attack with this monster. If "Toon World" on the field is destroyed, destroy this card. This card can attack your opponent directly, unless they control a Toon Monster. If they do control one, this card must target a Toon Monster for its attacks.
    • Reason for contradiction: Alister (who was disguised as Pegasus at the timing) summoned this card via "Toon Mask" which should have been impossible as he didn't Special Summon this card from his hand by Tributing two monsters.

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX

  • Ancient Gear Castle - Face-up "Ancient Gear" monsters gain 300 ATK. Each time you Normal Summon or Set a monster(s), put 1 counter on this card. If you Tribute Summon an "Ancient Gear" monster, you can substitute this card for a Tribute(s), if the number of counters is equal to or greater than the number of required Tribute(s).
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's effect didn't activate when Camula Normal Summoned a monster when this card was used for the Duel between Crowler and Camula.
  • Second Coin Toss - When a coin toss is performed, you can choose to redo the coin toss. (If the toss involved multiple coin flips, just redo the coin toss you are currently doing.) You can only use the effect of "Second Coin Toss" once per turn.
    • Reason for contradiction: When Pierre used this card's effect to insure that he gets three Heads on the effect of "Sand Gambler", he only redid the second coin toss instead of starting over at the beginning.
  • Counterattack! - Activate only during either player's Battle Phase. Once during this turn, if a monster attacks one of your monsters, the monster that was attacked must attack this turn, ignoring replays or conditions.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card was activated on Syrus' Battle Phase and it was established that Syrus and Hassleberry can't attack their own monsters hence "Training Field" being activated. Also "Element Saurus" had to have attacked, otherwise "Training Field" wouldn't have boosted its ATK.
  • Dark Creator - This card cannot be destroyed by battle or declare a direct attack. If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle(except "Dark Creator"), inflict 700 damage to your opponent.
    • Reason for contradiction: Since the Dark Creator Tokens had the same effects of "Dark Creator", the effect of the "Dark Creator Token" Jaden used to destroy "Dark Creator" once and for all should have activated when "Dark Creator" was destroyed in battle, but it did not do so.
  • Elemental HERO Wildheart - This card is unaffected by Trap Cards and can't be targeted by their effects.
    • Reason for contradiction: The effect of "Dark Cure" didn't activate when this card was summoned even though this card can still be targeted for the effects of Traps.
  • Freed the Brave Wanderer - Once per turn, you can remove from play 2 LIGHT monsters in your Graveyard to destroy 1 face-up monster on the field whose original ATK is higher than this card.
    • Reason for contradiction: When Jaden used this card's effect on "Power Annihilator", this card's ATK was higher than the ATK of "Power Annihilator" and that would make it impossible for Jaden to use this card's effect to destroy "Power Annihilator".
  • Common Soul - Select 1 face-up monster on the field. Special Summon 1 "Neo-Spacian" monster from your hand to the same side of the field as the selected monster. The selected monster gains ATK equal to the ATK of the monster that was Special Summoned by this effect. When this card is removed from the field, return the Special Summoned monster to its owner's hand. When the Special Summoned monster is removed from the field, destroy this card.

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's

  • Junk Warrior - This card gains ATK equal to the total ATK of all Level 2 and lower monsters you control. If any Level 2 and lower monsters you control had their attack altered during the Battle Phase, this card's ATK will not change until the end of the Battle Phase.
    • Reason for contradiction: Despite this card's anime lore, its ATK didn't change when "Speed Warrior" gained ATK through its own effect.
  • Roar of the Earthbound - Once per turn, when your opponent's monster declares an attack, if the ATK of the attacking monster is lower than that of a face-up "Earthbound Immortal" monster you control, destroy the attacking monster and inflict damage to your opponent equal to half that monster's ATK.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's anime lore looked similar to its TCG/OCG lore, but despite this, Yusei took only 900 damage which was the half the current ATK of "Speed Warrior" at that point.
  • Glow-Up Bulb - You can send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard and Special Summon this card from the Graveyard. Each player can only use the effect of "Glow-Up Bulb" once per Duel.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's written's anime lore would make it impossible for Akiza to activate in her Duel against Andre as she activated this card's effect on her Main Phase 1 and she only sent one card from the top of her Deck to the Graveyard not two.
  • Synchro Monument - When a Tuner monster is Summoned or a Synchro Monster is Synchro Summoned, your opponent cannot activate any cards that affect you or your monsters until the End Phase (your opponent can still use card effects to change your monsters' battle positions).
    • Reason for contradiction: The written anime lore would make it impossible for Aporia to activate "Chaos Infinity" since that is still activating a card (Jack had Synchro Summoned "Red Nova Dragon" and that should have prevented Aporia from activating "Chaos Infinity").
  • Razion, the Timelord - This card cannot be destroyed by battle or by card effects. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this face-up Attack Position card. If this card battles, at the end of the Damage Step: Shuffle all monsters your opponent controls and all cards in your opponent's Graveyard to the Deck. When your opponent draw(s) a card during the Draw Phase: Inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. No card effects can respond to this effect's activation. You cannot Summon monsters. During your Standby Phase: Shuffle this face-up card you control to the Deck.
    • Reason for contradiction: The effect of "Black-Winged Dragon" didn't respond to this card's effect when Yusei conducted his Draw Phase and because "Black-Winged Dragon's" effect is a Continuous Effect, the effect of "Razion" probably can't be responded to in the anime.
  • Shooting Quasar Dragon - This card's maximum number of attacks per turn is equal to the number of monsters used as Synchro Material Monsters. When this card attacks, you can negate effects that prevent cards from being destroyed, until the end of the Battle Phase. While this card is face-up on the field, you take no effect damage and effects that halve your Life Points are negated. This card is unaffected by the effects of your opponent's monsters. When this card is removed from the field, destroy all monsters on the field, then Special Summon 1 "Shooting Star Dragon" from your Extra Deck (This Special Summon is treated as a Synchro Summon).
    • Reason for contradiction: The written anime lore of this card would not have helped in destroying the Timelords in battle since an effect that prevents a monster from being destroyed by battle doesn't mean that the monster's destruction is negated. Also halving a player's Life Points doesn't count as damage, so the effect of "Michion, the Timelord" should have still activated, but it did not.

Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL

  • Number 25: Force Focus - Cannot be destroyed by battle except with "Number" monsters. When your opponent activates an Effect Monster's effect: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target that monster; negate that target's effect(s) this turn. When this card battles with an opponent's monster, you may detach one Xyz Material from this card. If you do, the monster that this card is battling has its effects negated this turn.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card was able to negate the effect of "Gogogo Golem" which is a Continuous Effect in both the anime and the real card game. This card's effect was also hinted in the anime to be able to negate the effect of "Number 39: Utopia".
  • Number 8: Heraldic King Genom-Heritage - Cannot be destroyed by battle except with "Number" monsters. During either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then activate 1 of these effects.
    ● Until the End Phase of this turn, if this card battles one of your opponent's monsters, that monster's ATK becomes 0 and this card's ATK becomes that monster's original ATK.
    ● Until the End Phase of this turn, negate the effects of 1 face-up Attack Position monster your opponent controls and this card gains that monster's effects.
    ● When an opponent's monster declares an attack, that monster's name becomes "Unknown" and this card gains that monster's original name.
    • Reason for contradiction: One of the written effects that can be selected for the second effect of "Heraldic King Genom-Heritage" would not have helped Vetrix in destroying "Number 9: Dyson Sphere" as he explicitly stated during his Duel against Kite that this effect negates the effects of "Dyson Sphere" and grants "Genom-Heritage" those effects until the End Phase.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie: Pyramid of Light

  • Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon - Cannot be summoned unless you control a face-up "Toon World". This card cannot attack the turn it is Special Summoned. You must pay 500 Life Points to declare an attack with this monster. If "Toon World" on the field is destroyed, destroy this card. This card can attack your opponent directly, unless they control a Toon Monster. If they do control one, this card must target a Toon Monster for its attacks.
    • Reason for contradiction: This card's summon was a Normal Summon in the movie as Pegasus had to apply the effect of "Ultimate Offering" in order to summon it.
  • Toon Summoned Skull - Cannot be summoned unless you control a face-up "Toon World". This card cannot attack the turn it is Special Summoned. You must pay 500 Life Points to declare an attack with this monster. If "Toon World" on the field is destroyed, destroy this card. This card can attack your opponent directly, unless they control a Toon Monster. If they do control one, this card must target a Toon Monster for its attacks.
    • Reason for contradiction: Same reason as reason for "Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon" in the movie.
  • Pyramid of Light - All God Cards on the field are removed from play. If this face-up card is removed from your side of the field, destroy "Andro Sphinx" and "Sphinx Teleia" on your side of the field and remove them from play.
    • Reason for contradiction: Despite the written anime lore, this card still retained its TCG/OCG effect in the anime as "Andro Sphinx" and "Sphinx Teleia" were both destroyed when Yami Yugi finally destroyed this card.
