Card Appearances:Archfiend of Gilfer
Yu-Gi-Oh!
- This card is known as "Beast of Gilfer" in the Anime.
- This card is first used by Yugi Muto during his tag duel with Seto Kaiba against Umbra and Lumis. Yugi attempts to summon this card by Tributing "Beta The Magnet Warrior", but Lumis activates "Mask of Restrict" to prevent that. This card is later sent to the Graveyard via Card Destruction. Because of this, Yugi used this card's effect to equip it onto his opponent's Masked Beast, weakening it and allowing Kaiba's Blue-Eyes White Dragon to destroy it.
- Yugi uses this card in his Duel against Joey Wheeler, when the latter was being controlled by Marik Ishtar. He tributes Beta The Magnet Warrior to summon it and uses it to destroy Joey's Rocket Warrior. He attempts to destroy Panther Warrior during his next turn, but Joey counters with Skull Dice and Graceful Dice. Yugi destroys Graceful Dice with De-Spell and Skull Dice's roll got only a two, which meant that "Gilfer"'s ATK was cut in half. Because of this, this card still managed to destroy "Panther Warrior".
- In episode 85, this card can be seen when Yugi is rebuilding his Deck.
- In episode 99, this card appears when Yami Yugi was building his Virtual World Deck before his Duel with Gansley.
- In episode 104, this card can be seen when Joey is shown building his Deck for his duel with Johnson.
- In episode 106, this card can be seen when Duke Devlin, Tristan Taylor, and Serenity Wheeler were building their Decks for their Duel against Nezbitt.

- In episode 109, this card appears in a flashback Leichter has when he explains to Seto that his treachery began when Gozaburo gave him a large amount of dollars to test Seto's business skills.
- In episode 116, this card appears in a flashback Kaiba has when he notes that he remembers that he promised to be a father to Mokuba and protect him no matter what. He didn't treat Mokuba well initially when he threw him out, but he did that so that no matter what happened to him, Mokuba would still have a family.
- Yugi tributes his Big Shield Gardna to summon this card during the four-way duel between himself, Kaiba, Joey and Yami Marik. He attacks Kaiba directly with it, but Kaiba redirects the attack to Marik's Lord Poison with Attack Guidance Armor. Marik counters the attack with Mirror Force, but Yugi pays 1000 Life Points to activate Seven Tools of the Bandit which negates Yami Marik's Trap Card. This card's attack then successfully destroyed "Lord Poison". Yugi later uses this card to attack Joey directly as per Joey's request to Yugi. It played no other part in the duel after that.
- During Yugi and Kaiba's third Duel against each other, this card can be seen when Yugi searches his Deck and begins to choose the cards he wishes to keep in his Deck via "Final Attack Orders".
- During Yugi's duel with Yami Marik, Yugi banishes this card via "Ragnarok". This monster was then seen as one of the many monsters that were used to hold down Yami Marik's The Winged Dragon of Ra.
- In episode 143, this card appears in a flashback Yugi has when he remembers winning Joey back from Marik's mind control and telling him they defeated Marik together.
- In episode 148, this card is seen among piles of cards in Rex's fantasy when he thinks the reason why Pegasus invited Yugi and his friends was because he wanted to give them rare cards just for them.
- Yami Yugi draws this card during his first Duel against Rafael, but he does not play it at all during the Duel. He draws this card right before he Tributes "Dark Magician" for the effect of "Catapult Turtle".
- In episode 181, this card appears in a flashback Yami Yugi has when he remembers Dueling Joey at the docks of Battle City while Joey was possessed by Marik.
- Yami Yugi tributes Berfomet to summon this card during his Ceremonial Battle against Yugi. Yugi then destroys it with his Buster Blader. Yami then activates the effect of this card, equipping it to "Buster Blader" and decreasing its ATK by 500. This card is later destroyed when "Buster Blader" is destroyed by "Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight".
