Card Appearances:Magical Hats

Yu-Gi-Oh!

 * This card is reccuringly used by Yugi Muto/Yami Yugi.


 * This card's artwork initially features black hats and a white glow while its real version features blue hats and a pink glow.

Duelist Kingdom

 * When Yugi Muto duels "Kaiba" (either Ghost Kaiba in the anime or Ventriloquist of the Dead in the manga), Yugi uses this card for the first time to create four Magical Hat Tokens to hide his Dark Magician in one token. The Mimic's Blue-Eyes White Dragon then attacks a token, but it was empty. Next turn, "Blue-Eyes" attacks another token, but doing so triggers Spellbinding Circle.


 * When Yami Yugi and Joey Wheeler tag-team duel the Paradox Brothers, Yugi uses it to create four Magical Hat Tokens to hide his Dark Magician and Joey's Flame Swordsman in one token. After a token is destroyed by Dox's Dungeon Worm, Joey releases his Flame Swordsman out of the token to destroy Dungeon Worm. When Gate Guardian's bottom section's attack floods the maze, this card is able to protect Dark Magician as he is still inside a token during the attack. One of the tokens that was earlier attacked contained "Spellbinding Circle" which Yugi activates on his turn to prevent Gate Guardian's sections from defending against his Summoned Skull's attack. As such the attack destroys Gate Guardian's bottom section. Later, Yugi released his Dark Magician from the hat it was hiding in so that it could move further through the maze.


 * When Yugi Muto duels Joey Wheeler, Yugi uses this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to hide his Dark Magician in one. Joey's Black Skull Dragon then destroys one token which was empty. Next turn it attacked a second token, but that was empty too. When Black Skull Dragon destroys the third token, Yugi's Spellbinding Circle activates and the last token containing Dark Magician was automatically destroyed shortly after.


 * Yugi duels Maximillion Pegasus, Yami Yugi uses this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to hide his Dark Magician in one. Pegasus uses his Millennium Eye to read Yami Yugi's mind to find the token that hides the Dark Magician but Yami Yugi switches minds with Yugi Muto, leaving Pegasus unable to find the location as Yugi Muto doesn't know. Pegasus' Toon Summoned Skull then attacks one token, but it was empty. Next "Toon Summoned Skull" attacks another token, but that was empty too. Later, Pegasus ultimately counters with Magical Neutralizing Force Field to destroy the remaining tokens.


 * While in The Big Five's rigged virtual world, Yugi Muto used this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens and hide Joey Wheeler, Mai Valentine, himself and Mokuba Kaiba in one of the hats so that they could escape a trio of Labyrinth Tanks.

Battle City

 * When Yugi Muto duels Bandit Keith, Yugi uses this card this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to hide his Dark Magician in one but Keith uses Magic Jammer to negate the effect of this card and destroy it.


 * When Yugi duels Arkana, Yami Yugi uses this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to protect his Dark Magician from Arkana's Mystic Guillotine. One empty token is destroyed in the place of "Dark Magician", leaving three hats remaining. When Arkana uses Thousand Knives to destroy Yugi's Dark Magician since the former's effect is able to automatically figure out which hat Dark Magician is under, Yugi uses Cursebreaker which destroys both Thousand Knives and this card.


 * When Yami Yugi duels Strings, Yugi uses this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to protect his Dark Magician Girl from being destroyed by Strings' Slifer the Sky Dragon's effect as she had less than 2000 DEF. When Slifer the Sky Dragon attacks the hat that contains Dark Magician Girl, Yugi utilizes Magic Cylinder and Spellbinding Circle to save her and destroy Slifer the Sky Dragon but Strings thwarts the redirected attack with Revival Jam and Jam Defender.

Virtual World

 * When Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler duel The Big Five (using Tristan Taylor's body), Yugi uses this card again to create four Magical Hat Tokens to protect his Dark Magician (his Deck Master) from the Big Five's Berserk Dragon. Yugi then uses his Deck Master's Special Ability to duplicate this card's effect to create another four Magical Hat Tokens to protect Joey's Flame Swordsman (Joey's Deck Master). When Berserk Dragon attacks all of the hats on Yugi's side of the field to destroy Yugi's Deck Master, Joey's Deck Master comes out of the hat it is in and takes the attack instead. Joey then activates Silver Dollar to negate the attack.

Battle City Finals

 * When Yami Yugi duels Seto Kaiba, Yugi has this card in hand while Yugi's Slifer the Sky Dragon and Kaiba's Obelisk the Tormentor are on the field.

Waking the Dragons

 * During the first duel between Yami Yugi and Rafael, Yugi has this card in his hand after he activates Card of Sanctity.


 * During the second duel between Yami Yugi and Rafael, Yugi uses this card to create four Magical Hat Tokens to protect his Big Shield Gardna in one and his Dark Magician in another from Rafael's Guardian monsters. One hat takes Guardian Eatos' attack and since that hat contained Big Shield Gardna, it is destroyed shortly after. Guardian Elma then destroys another hat, but it was empty, however Rafael did this so hewould have higher chances to get rid of Yugi's Dark Magician. Guardian Grarl then destroys a third hat but that one's empty and the last hat containing Dark Magician is automatically disappears afterwards since there's only one hat remaining after the third attack.
