*While the effect of "[[Dimensional Fissure]]" or "[[Macro Cosmos]]" is active, you cannot activate effects which have "''discard to the Graveyard''" or "''send to the Graveyard''" as costs.

Thus, if the effect of "[[Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror]]" is active, then the activated effect of "[[Necro Gardna]]" will be negated.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=9203&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: If the effects of "Honest" and "Necro Gardna" are activated, then the effect is treated as activating where?</ref>

  • You can activate the effect of "Honest" when a LIGHT monster you control battles during your opponent's turn.[3]
  • During the Damage Step in which a LIGHT monster you control battles, you can activate the effect from the start of the Damage Step until before damage calculation. Furthermore, it cannot be activated during damage calculation. (It cannot be activated in the same timing as "Kuriboh".) Sending this card from the hand to the Graveyard is a cost. The ATK increase is equal to the ATK of the opponent's monster when the effect of "Honest" resolves.[4]
  • While the effect of "Dimensional Fissure" or "Macro Cosmos" is active, you cannot activate effects which have "discard to the Graveyard" or "send to the Graveyard" as costs.
