!! The Yu-Gi-Oh! Loops provide examples of:of:

* TheChosenMany: Requires specific focus here separate from regular time loops. For some reason or another, the Yu-Gi-Oh universes contain at least four separate loops and four anchors: Yugi Motou (and Atem), Jaden Yuki, Yusei Fudo and Yuma Tsukimo (and Astral).
** This applies doubly for Original Series and ZeXal loops, as Yugi and Yuma share the role of anchor with Atem and Astral respectively. This has been handwaved away by explaining that Atem is bound to Yugi, or whoever is taking his place in the loop if he is there but Yugi is not, and likewise with Astral to Yuma.
* InSpiteOfANail: More so than the other loops, the Yu-Gi-Oh! Anchros are hit by this quite a lot, as a lot of the time even if Yugi Motou was to change the main game to, say, chess, Duel Monsters would still be the game of choice in Yusei Fudo's time. See TheChosenMany above

The Infinite Loops, also known as the Innortal-style Time Loops, are an ever-expanding genre of Groundhog Day fanfics.

The premise is that something has happened to [[AhMyGoddess Yggdrasil]], the World Tree computer that contains and runs the multiverse. As a result, the various universes have been put in 'safe mode', [[GroundhogDay time-looping]] until Yggdrasil can be repaired. Each universe's loop is maintained by the presence of an Anchor, a core person from that loop who is the first to notice their universe is looping. There is always an Anchor in a Loop.

--->"Gilda, I'm an Anchor. Which means I've been awake for every single loop. Sure I've gotten powerful, but among Anchors and other long time loopers the truism is ‘with great power comes great insanity.’"
"I've been better than most, but even I've had moments where I slipped. You'll find this out yourself, but imagine everyone around you had a disease. They remember everything up to a certain day. After that, they can't keep a new memory past a full day. They just keep forgetting and reliving the same day, over and over again. Only you remember and grow. How long before you stopped seeing them as friends out of frustration? How many days till you stopped seeing them as people at all? How many weeks till you started meddling, manipulating them for what is 'best'? How many months till you started smashing them in frustration that they can't bucking remember anything?!"

As repairs to Yggdrasil continue, more people in each universe begin Looping as well. In addition, Fused Loops allow Loopers from different universes to interact. And as a given, Loopers are tremendously stir-crazy due to the loops. [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity usually ensues.]]
