TCG Rulings

• Special Summoning this card and setting the condition to remove it from play are parts of the same effect.

• Even if this card is removed from the field while face-down after being Special Summoned by its own effect, it is removed from play.

• If you Special Summon this card with its effect and it is flipped face-up, then face-down again, it will not be removed from play when it is removed from the field.

• If this card is Special Summoned by its own effect, then equipped to Relinquished, and then removed from the field, it will be removed from play.

• The effect to return your opponent’s monster to their hand targets that monster.

• If you control the target monster when this effect resolves, it will not be applied.

OCG Rulings

• When "Worm Yagan" removes itself from play after it Special Summons itself, it is removed from play as part of the same effect which Special Summoned it.

• After "Worm Yagan" Special Summons itself face-down, if it is removed from the field while still face-down, then it is removed from play.

• The effect of "Worm Yagan" which returns an opponent's monster to the hand targets one monster which is face-up on your opponent's field.

• When resolving the effect of "Worm Yagan" which Special Summons it in face-down Defense Position, if either you control monsters other than "Worm Xex" or if "Worm Xex" is no longer face-up on the field, then "Worm Yagan" will not be Special Summoned.

• After "Worm Yagan" Special Summons itself from the Graveyard, if it is flipped face-up and then face-down by an effect like "Book of Moon", then as soon as it becomes face-down the effect "When this card is removed from the field, it is removed from play." no longer is applied, so it will no longer be removed from play if it is removed from the field.
