** As shown in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCQyx7rwiec these]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei4XE_EKn80 videos,]] some of the older Fusion Monsters look nothing like their recipes. To cite just one, Witch of the Black Forest and [[HighPriestess Lady of Faith]] (both female) combine into the Musician King (a male guitarist). In many cases, this is because they debuted in older video games, where the cards involved had more generic materials--for instance, Flame Swordsman was originally made in the 1998 ''VideoGame/YuGiOhDuelMonsters'' by fusing any fire-based monster with any humanoid warrior monster, but the card game started in 1999 and statted it as a specific Fire-type (Flame Manipulator) and a specific Warrior (Masaki the Legendary Swordsman)--two cards that could indeed be used to summon it in the video games, but have no connection or resemblance to Flame Swordsman apart from the broad concept of a fire guy and a sword-wielder.

** Even with the older video games in mind, the card game would often change the fusion materials for no clear reason. For instance, in these older video games, Musician King was made by fusing certain cards, mostly Fairies and Spellcasters, with Sonic Maid or Hibikime (both of which are music-themed), and Great Mammoth of Goldfine was made by fusing Mammoth Graveyard (a card it is a PaletteSwap of) with a Zombie monster. The card game changed Musician King's materials to two random Spellcasters that have no connection to music, and Great Mammoth of Goldfine's to two random Zombies that look nothing like it.
