*When "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is returned from the field to the hand, you can activate its effect and Special Summon another "[[Fortune Lady]]" monster.  If you do so, then you must show the "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" to your opponent.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=49369&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: Can the effect of "Fortune Lady Light" be activated when it is returned from the field to the hand?</ref>

*If "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" becomes an [[Equip Spell Card]] by an effect like "[[Relinquished]]" or "[[Destiny Hero - Plasma]]", then when it is removed from the field its owner can activate its effect which Special Summons a "[[Fortune Lady]]" monster.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=49384&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: When a "Fortune Lady Light" being treated as an Equip Spell Card is removed from the field, does its effect activate?</ref>

*If your "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is removed from play from your opponent's field permanently by an effect like "[[Dark Core]]", then you can activate its effect and Special Summon a "[[Fortune Lady]]" card from your Deck.  If your "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is removed from play from your opponent's field temporarily by an effect like "[[Interdimensional Matter Transporter]]" or "[[Dimensionhole]]", then your opponent controls "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" so he can activate its effect.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=49386&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: Can you activate the effect of your "Fortune Lady Light" when it is removed from play from your opponent's field?</ref>

*The effect of "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" activates after it is removed from the field.  If "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is returned to the hand from the field, then the effect [[activate]]s in the hand.  If "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is sent from the field to the Graveyard, then the effect [[activate]]s in the Graveyard.  If "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is removed from play, the effect activates in the place to where the card is removed from play.  However, you cannot activate the effect of "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" when it is returned to the Deck from the field.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=49399&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: The effect of "Fortune Lady Light" which Special Summons a monster activates where?</ref>

*If "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is face-down on the field and is removed from the field face-down, then its effect does not activate and you cannot Special Summon another "[[Fortune Lady]]" monster.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=49410&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: When a face-down "Fortune Lady Light" is removed from the field, does its effect activate?</ref>

*For the effect "''This card cannot declare an attack unless you return 1 card you control to its owner's hand.''" of "[[Mist Valley Falcon]]", the monster is not considered to be removed from the field by a card effect.<ref name="FoMV-FLL">[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=50492&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: When "Fortune Lady Light" is returned to the hand when declaring an attack with "Mist Valley Falcon", can its effect be activated?</ref>
**Example: If "[[Mist Valley Falcon]]" attacks by returning "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" to the hand, then you cannot activate the effect of "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" because "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is not removed from the field by a card effect.<ref name="FoMV-FLL"/>

*Suppose you control "[[Fortune Lady Fire]]" and "[[Fortune Lady Light]]".  If you activate "[[Magical Dimension]]" and [[Tribute]] "[[Fortune Lady Fire]]" to Special Summon "[[Fortune Lady Water]]" and then destroy "[[Fortune Lady Light]]", then afterwards only the effect of "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" will [[activate]].  The effect of "[[Fortune Lady Water]]" will not activate because you do not control "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" when the effect activates, even though you controlled "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" when "[[Fortune Lady Water]]" was Special Summoned.<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=51064&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: When the effect of "Fortune Lady Water" would activate, if you do not control another "Fortune Lady", then will the effect activate?</ref>

*For the effect "''● You can remove from play this card and 1 face-up monster you control, and draw 2 cards.''" of "[[Cyber Valley]]", you draw the cards after removing from play the monsters; the two do not occur simultaneously.  Thus, if "[[Fortune Lady Light]]" is removed from play by the effect of "[[Cyber Valley]]", then afterwards you draw cards, so you [[miss the timing]] and cannot activate the effect of "[[Fortune Lady Light]]".<ref>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=51092&event=FE0006 Konami FAQ]: For the effect of "Cyber Valley", do you resolve the part which removes from play at the same time as the part which draws?</ref>
