Yu-Gi-Oh Anime Cards (Page 69)

*Card effects below are as accurate as possible.
Episode 47: Sky's the Limit
Palenque Sarcophagus
Anime Normal Spell
Activate only when you control a "Chronomaly" monster. Draw 2 cards.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Only a handful of non-Xyz Chronomaly monsters have high enough ATK to make this usable but if you have one of those, this isn't too bad, especially since you can use more than one per turn.
Episode 45: Ruffled Feathers
Heroic Guard
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when you take battle damage. Tribute 1 "Heroic Challenger" monster and gain Life Points equal to its ATK.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: You're better off avoiding to take the battle damage in the first place. Heck, why not do both and use Draining Shield to save your monster and give your LP a boost?
Episode 43: The Dragon Awakens
Trap Reborn
Anime Normal Trap
Pay half your Life Points, then select 1 Normal Trap Card in your opponent's Graveyard. Remove it from play and make this card's effect become that Trap Card's effect.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Trap Reclamation does the job better as it only costs you a card from your hand to regain the Trap Card you just used.
Battle Simulation
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when a monster battles another monster. During this Battle Phase only, they cannot be destroyed by battle and their ATKs are halved.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Just use Shrink to halve the ATK of the opponent's monster without affecting your own monster at all, not to mention Shrink is easier to use.
Courageous Heart
Anime Normal Trap
Pay half your Life Points and select 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls. This turn, negate that monster's effects and the activations of those effects.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Even Effect Veiler does better by not costing you anything except itself from your hand, or better yet go with Fiendish Chain.
Episode 42: A Dubious Duo
Stonehenge Shield
Anime Continuous Trap
Activate only when an opponent's monster with 3000 or more ATK declares an attack. Negate the attack, make that monster's ATK 0, and its effects are negated. When that monster is removed from the field, destroy this card.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A pretty risky time to activate a card is when a monster with high ATK is threatening you with an attack and even if it's successful, this just has to be destroyed for all the efforts to be rendered moot.
Attack Gimmick
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 face-up "Gimmick Puppet" monster. Until the End Phase, it gains 500 ATK. If it destroys an opponent's monster by battle this turn, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of the destroyed monster.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: The ATK boost wouldn't be enough on its own to warrant using this but the other effect just might, though Gimmick Puppets aren't all that strong for the most part.
Chronomaly Resonance
Anime Normal Spell
Select 1 face-up "Chronomaly" monster you control. Special Summon 1 "Chronomaly" monster from your hand whose Level is one Level higher than the selected monster.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: You won't be able to Xyz Summon using just this card's effect and the selected monster as is but you may be able to use them for other methods.
Photon World
Anime Field Spell
When a "Photon" monster is Normal or Special Summoned, inflict damage to all players that do not control a "Photon" monster equal to the Summoned monster's Level x 100.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Photon Decks didn't seem to me like a top tier Deck but they can benefit with this where most other Decks can't.
Episode 39: Pets Peeved (Continued)
Superior Howl
Anime Normal Trap
Destroy 1 face-up Equip Card you control. This turn, the ATK of all monsters on the field becomes their original ATK.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Superior Howl to what? It's not superior to anything except even more pitiful cards.
Counter Meowsure
Anime Quick-Play Spell
Activate only when a Trap Card you control is destroyed. Select 1 Spell or Trap Card your opponent controls and destroy it, then the ATK of 1 face-up "Neko" or "Cat" monster you control is doubled, until the End Phase.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Though our selection of Neko and Cat monsters is quite limited, we can still get more in the future, which'd give this some use but even then it doesn't have much.
Gold Coins for Cats
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when an opponent's monster selects a Beast-Type monster you control as an attack target. The attack target gains ATK equal to half the ATK of the attacking monster, during the Damage Step only.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: There are some powerful Beast-Type monsters and thankfully this isn't restrained to Neko or Cat monsters but it's only half the ATK and only during the Damage Step.
Raise the Woof
Anime Normal Spell
Activate only when you control no Level 3 or higher monsters. Special Summon 4 "Woof Tokens" (Beast-Type/EARTH/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0) in face-up Attack Position. They cannot be Tributed.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: It has such a strict activation requirement when Scapegoat is a Quick-Play Spell that Special Summons an equal amount of Tokens for much less restraints.
Catnip Turbine
Anime Equip Spell
Equip only to a "Neko" or "Cat" monster you control. It gains 1200 ATK, but it cannot select your opponent's monsters as an attack target.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: A higher ATK boost than most Equip Spells but the affected monster can't take down any opponent's monsters and it only goes to Neko or Cat monsters.
Cat Girl Magician
LIGHT / Spellcaster-Type Xyz / Rank 4 / ATK 2000 / DEF 1800
2 Level 4 monsters
Once per turn, during your Battle Phase, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to halve this card's ATK until the End Phase. If you do, this card can attack your opponent directly this turn.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: With only 2000 ATK to start, that'll only deal 1000 damage for its direct attack when Drillago takes less effort and can attack directly for more damage, albeit with a more strict condition.
Cat Girl
EARTH / Beast / Level 4 / ATK 1200 / DEF 1600
Once per turn, during your opponent's turn, if the battle position of a monster your opponent controls would be changed, it is not changed.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: The monster has nothing to offset its poor effect and stats and that means it's worse than Stray Cat Girl.
Stray Cat Girl
EARTH / Beast / Level 4 / ATK 600 / DEF 1500
This Attack Position card cannot be destroyed by battle.
COMMON
Rating: 2
Comments: Contrary to Cat Food, which isn't worth the effort, even to gain the benefit this card has, this card at least has minor uses thanks to its only effect.
Cat Food
Anime Quick-Play Spell
Tribute 1 "Stray Cat". Special Summon 1 "Stray Cat Girl" from your hand, Deck, or Graveyard in face-up Attack Position.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: Stray Cat has already proven to be a poor choice and Stray Cat Girl isn't much better.
Cat Confusion
Anime Normal Trap
Activate only when an opponent's monster declares an attack and you control a Beast-Type monster. Return the attacking monster to the hand.
COMMON
Rating: 1
Comments: The activation requirements are too strict to make this card worthwhile, especially when the other cards with better effects and no restrictions already released.
