* [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Neo New]]. [[labelnote: Explanation]] Originally from Sawatari's self-proclaimed title in his second duel with Yuya, the fandom uses it to describe reinvented characters, such as ARC-V Jack's Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend.[[/labelnote]]

%% Please use "ARC-V", not "Arc-V".
%% The black cards are called "Xyz" ("Ex-iez"), not "XYZ" ("Ex-why-zee"). The former is correct since it's written in the rule books and on card texts.
%% It would be helpful (and look far better) if tropers use ''Franchise/YuGiOh'' instead of "Yugioh".
%% For the sake of consistency, please pay attention to FirstNameBasis and LastNameBasis, and don't use dub names without context to the dub.
%% Using the OCG or TCG version of card names is fine.

* Ping Pong on Motorcycles / Ping Pong Dimension / Ping Pong jokes in the style of a Yu-Gi-Oh series in general. [[labelnote: Explanation]]During the conclusion of the Synchro arc where [[spoiler: Yuya was just about to have his rematch against Jack]], the episodes ended up getting delayed for another week so that channel it was on could air... A ping pong tournament. To say fans of the show were not amused would be an understatement.[[/labelnote]]

* Roget's VillainousBreakdown in episode 94 quickly caught off with the fandom, thanks to his Japanese VA's show-stopping performance and Roget's facial reactions to what's going on. In particular, his [[spoiler: "'''''[[SkywardScream SEEEEEEERRGEEEEEEEEEY!!!]]'''''"]] line quickly become one of the most memorable moments in the show so far, and is wildly regarded as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome for Roget's VA because of ''how high and enraged'' he managed to make it sound. Similarly, jokes about his VA needing a cough drop afterwards are common as well.

* Yuto's name being written as "Ute" on the VersusCharacterSplash. Many people saw this as ridiculous, and started using it ironically. The spelling also goes for the other Yu's - Uya (Yuya), Uge (Yugo), Uze (Yuzu)...and then we got Yugo being written as "Hyugo" and "Hugo" And then Yuri's name become "Juri" and "Joeri".

* Yuya's Fusion Summoning Beast-Eyes in episode 26. Due to his stern expression, hands outstretched and the bright light behind him, people have had a field day with calling him "[[http://i.imgur.com/jrlEXCR.jpg Duel Jesus]]" and the like.
* Many have taken to calling Yuzu the real protagonist of the series as she was far more involved in the plot than Yuya until episode 36, particularly following Yuya's duel with Reiji.
** A sub-theme of this is referring to the series as a ReverseHarem, and comparing the characters in relation to Yuzu with traditional harem archetypes (Yuya the [[ChildhoodFriendRomance childhood friend,]] Yuto the [[BrokenBird wounded soul]], Kurosaki the AloofBigBrother, Masumi and Olga [[SchoolgirlLesbians the lesbian route]]...). See LauncherOfAThousandShips above.
* Sora's Fusion Monsters ([[SpellMyNameWithAnS Des-toy/Death-toy]]/[[DubNameChange Frightfur]]) resembling the animatronics of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys''. Some fans joke about him finding the game funny, being the owner of the pizza place, or the creator of the infamous killer robots.

* People actually start to use Futoshi's annoying CatchPhrase, "shivers".
* Yuto's name being written as "Ute" on the VersusCharacterSplash. Many people saw this as ridiculous, and started using it ironically. The spelling also goes for the other Yu's - Uya (Yuya), Uge (Yugo), Uze (Yuzu)...and then we got Yugo being written as "Hyugo" and "Hugo" And then Yuri's name become "Juri" and "Joeri".
* Yuya's catch phrase ("The fun has just begun!") is usually said ironically by fans when something traumatic happens, like Sora's NightmareFace during his duel wih Kurosaki, or [[spoiler:Yuya's SuperpoweredEvilSide]] appearing. Just [[http://i.imgur.com/aeVavdI.jpg look]].
* Kurosaki's spectacular Dueling record has led to [[MerchandiseDriven "BUY RAID RAPTORS"]] becoming something of a call around him. When they're not talking about his obsession with RUUUURIIII.
** Related to this, we have the "RURI RAPTORS"!
** Kurosaki falling down a flight of stairs in episode 47.
*** [[spoiler:The fandom has started making fun of stairs as Yuya fell down the stairs twice in his duel against Reiji.]]
* It's traditional to refer to practitioners of different Summoning methods as "[x] scum", in reference to the FantasticRacism going on in the series. This is particularly common with Kurosaki or Sora.
* The "Berserk Mode" or "Berserker Mode" is an unofficial term created by fans to describe [[spoiler:the SuperpoweredEvilSide of Yuya and his {{Identical Stranger}}s]]. Everything known about the Berserk Mode are just fan theories and nothing about it is confirmed yet.
* Everyone in this series is colorblind![[note]]Despite the difference in their hair color and hair style, everyone except Reiji often mistakes Yuya and Yuzu for their counterparts.[[/note]]
* Carded.[[note]]An abbreviation of saying "someone sealed into a card".[[/note]]
* Egao.[[note]]Japanese for "Smile" - used repeatedly over the course of the series, most notably as part of Yuto's FamousLastWords, [[MostAnnoyingSound which the creators won't let us forget]].[[/note]]

Also used derogatorily due to [[InformedAbility their pitiful]] [[TheWorfEffect performance against]] [[{{Mooks}} Obelisk Force]], which makes the fans question if they are not just a music group posing as elite duelists after all[[/note]]
* Related to Reiji's boy band is Reiji's superhero team made up of Yuya, Gongenzaka, Serena, Kurosaki, Sawatari and Tsukikage, [[spoiler:based on episode 49 and episode 50's preview, where Reiji states his desire to make them his Lancers. Due to the name, many are comparing the Lancers to the Avengers. Some have even taken to photoshopping the Avengers' movie poster with them.

** He is later joined by Tsukikage as well.
* Fans mistaking Yuri's ace monster for the incredibly generic card Kaiser Dragon due to its silhouette. They share a few laughs when it is noted how ridiculous that is.
* Tokumatsu's "ENJOY!" and "KOIKOIKOIKOI" have become very popular on Reddit. Just mentioning Cardians, Tokumatsu or the even word "enjoy" sparks responses.
* Due to the Lancers rather spotty win record, "Being [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Lancers]] is suffering".
