Card Appearances:Mirror Force

Yu-Gi-Oh!

 * This card inflicts damage to the opponent equal to the difference between the target monster's attack points and the total attack all the opponent's destroyed monsters.

Duelist Kingdom

 * When Yami Yugi duels Weevil Underwood, Yugi first activates this card to destroys Weevil's "Basic Insect" (which had been strengthed by "Laser Cannon Armor" and "Level 2 Power Boost") and four other Insect monsters on the Field when Weevil's monsters attacked Yugi's "Dark Magician".


 * When Yami Yugi duels Kaiba's imposter (either Ghost Kaiba in the series or Ventriloquist of the Dead in the manga), Yugi uses this card to redirect the attack from the imposter's third "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" to save his "Mystical Elf" and destroy the "Blue-Eyes", but the imposter activates "Negate Attack" to stop the redirected attack.


 * When Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler duel the Paradox Brothers, Yugi uses this card to redirect Gate Guardian's attack away from Joey's "Flame Swordsman" and onto Gate Guardian but the brothers uses Gate Guardian's second section's effect to protect it but this in turn destroys the brothers' "Monster Tamer".


 * When Yami Yugi duels Mai Valentine, this card is set face down but not activated as Mai destroys it via "Harpie's Feather Duster" before Yugi could activate it.


 * During Yugi's final duel with Maximillion Pegasus, Yugi Muto uses this card to save his "Dark Magician" from the attack of Pegasus' "Toon Summoned Skull" after destroying Pegasus' "Toon World" with "Living Arrow". The redirected attack then destroys Pegasus' "Toon Summoned Skull" (which reverted back into "Doppel-ganger"), "Red Archery Girl" and "Ryu-Ran".

Legendary Heroes

 * When dueling the Big Five's virtual world, Yami Yugi uses this card to protect him, Joey Wheeler and Mai Valentine from the swarms of Insect monsters that were attacking the trio. Although the insects hit this card's barrier and get destroyed, the storm of explosions creates a fire that disturbs the "Cocoons of Evolution" into hatching a bunch of three "Great Moths".

Battle City

 * When Yugi Muto duels Bandit Keith, Yugi activates this card in response to his "Dark Magician" being attacked by Keith's "Zera the Mant" but Keith activates "Solemn Judgment" to negate this card's effect and destroy it, allowing his attack to succeed in destroying "Dark Magician".


 * When Yami Yugi and Seto Kaiba tag team duel two Rare Hunters, one Rare Hunter uses the card to counter Kaiba's "Obelisk the Tormentor" but fails as the effect of Kaiba's "Obelisk the Tormentor" isn't an attack, winning Kaiba the duel.

Virtual World

 * When Téa Gardner duels with Crump, Tea sets this card face-down but Crump uses "Cold Wave" which prevents Tea from using this card for one turn. Later, this card gets destroyed by Crump's "Driving Snow".
 * While going through Noah Kaiba's doors, this card is one of three face down cards on the Level 3 door. When Yugi Muto's "Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight" attacks the level three door's "Dark King of the Abyss", this card protects the latter monster with this card, destroying Yugi's "Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight".


 * When Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler duel the Big Five (using Tristan Taylor's body), Yugi plays this card face-down and makes it very obvious to the Big Five that his face-down was a trap to get their attention on him instead of Joey. Later, this card gets destroyed when Nezbitt activates "Heavy Storm" but was a trick to power up Yugi's "Des Volstgalph" so that it could destroy Nezbitt's "Machine King".

Battle City Finals

 * In the four way duel, Yami Marik uses this card to save his "Lord Poison" (equipped with Kaiba's "Attack Guidance Armor") from the attack of Yami Yugi's "Beast of Gilfer" but Yugi uses a card (either "De-Spell" in the manga or "Seven Tools of the Bandit" in the anime) to negate and destroy this card instead.

Waking the Dragons

 * When Yami Yugi duels the Orichalcos Soldier, Yugi uses this card to save his "Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts" from being destroyed by the soldier's "Orichalcos Gigas" but the Soldier used his monster's effect to bring it back even stronger than before.


 * When Duke Devlin and Rebecca Hawkins duel Valon, Rebecca activates this card to save her "Diamond Head Dragon" from being destroyed by Valon's "Big Bang Blow" while also destroying all of Valon's monsters but Valon uses the effect of "Trap Buster" to negate and destroy this card. The attack then continued resulting in the destruction of Valon's "Big Bang Blow" which activates the latter monster's effect of destroying all monsters out and inflicting damage to each player equal to the total Attack Points of each monster they controlled while Valon uses the effect of "Active Guard" to negate the Battle Damage he would have received from the battle involving "Big Bang Blow".


 * When Yami Yugi and Seto Kaiba duel Dartz, Yugi sets this card but doesn't activate it for most of the duel as he soon finds out that Dartz's "Mirror Knight Tokens" have the souls of his friends in them (Yugi Muto, Joey Wheeler, Mai Valentine and Maximillion Pegasus) and can't bring himself to destroy the tokens as it might destroy his friends' souls too in the process. Later, Yami Yugi combines the card with Kaiba's "The Fang of Critias" to create "Mirror Force Dragon". Later when Dartz's "Orichalcos Shunoros" attacks "Legendary Knight Critias", Yami Yugi uses the effect of "Legendary Knight Critias" to activate this card from the Graveyard to destroy all of Dartz's monsters and inflict the difference between the Attack Points as damage to Dartz. This card was then removed from play afterwards.

Grand Championship

 * When Rebecca Hawkins duels Leon, Leon activates this card when "Cinderella" is attacked by Rebecca's "Luster Dragon #2". This in turn destroys "Luster Dragon #2".


 * When Yugi Muto duels Vivian Wong, Yugi used this card to save his "Big Shield Gardna" from the attack of Vivian's "Dragon Lady" but Vivian activates "Snowfall Sword" to negate this card's effect.


 * When Yugi Muto duels Leon, Yugi uses this card to save himself from a direct attack from Leon's "Iron Hans" which destroys the latter monster and Leon's two "Iron Knights".

Dawn of the Duel

 * When Yugi Muto duels Pharaoh Atem (Yami Yugi), this card is used in both the manga version and the anime version but is used in different fashions:
 * In the duel's manga version, Atem activates this card to save his "Dark Magician" from the effect of Yugi's "Gandora the Dragon of Destruction" which destroys Yugi's monster.
 * In the duel's anime version, Atem activates this card to save his "Obelisk the Tormentor" from the attack of Yugi's "Silent Swordsman" and reflect the attack back to destroy Yugi's monsters ("Silent Swordsman", "Beta The Magnet Warrior", "Alpha The Magnet Warrior" and "Gamma The Magnet Warrior). Yugi however revealed that he purposely did that because it was the only way for his plan to destroy the Egyptian Gods to continue as planned.

 * This card appears in the Duel Puzzle of episode 80. When Crow attempted to solve the Duel Puzzle, he equipped "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal" to "Green Gadget" to make the latter weaker before he attacked it with "Tragoedia", but the Robot used this card to destroy "Tragoedia", resulting in Crow failing to solve the puzzle. When Jack attempted to solve the puzzle, he equipped "Axe of Despair" to "Tragoedia" and attacked "Green Gadget" because he assumed the face-down card in the Duel Puzzle was changed. Unfortunately this assumption was wrong as the robot then activated this card to once again destroy "Tragoedia", resulting in Jack failing to solve the puzzle. Bruno then took a turn to solve the puzzle. Thanks to his strategy, he was able to remove "Green Gadget" from the field with "Tribute to the Doomed" and take control of "Ancient Gear Soldier" with "Cost Down" and "Tragoedia"'s effect. Bruno then equipped "Axe of Despair" to "Ancient Gear Soldier" and sent it to attack "Stronghold the Moving Fortress" (who now had 0 ATK due to "Green Gadget" being removed from the field). Because of "Ancient Gear Soldier"'s effect, the Password Robot could not activate this card to stop the attack, allowing Bruno to successfully destroy "Stronghold the Moving Fortress", deplete the Robot's remaining Life Points, and solve the Duel Puzzle.


 * Crow sets this card against Lyndon in episode 85, but chose not to activate it, causing him to lose the duel.


 * This card is seen in episode 108 when it falls out of Haruka's Deck.


 * This card can also be seen in the poster for the WRGP tournament during the second season.

Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL

 * In episode 12, this card appears in a flashback of Shark's as part of IV's Deck at a National Tournament. During the duel between Shark and IV, the latter setted a card face-down. Shark theorized that the set card is probably this card as IV would probably used that in this sort of situation. Shark realizes that he can win the duel now, but before Shark can conduct the turn that would have probably won him the duel, the duel is canceled and Shark is disqualified from the Duel as the security cameras caught Shark peeking at IV's Deck before the Duel. This in turn caused Shark to be banned forever from the Duel Circuit. IV later revealed in episode 26 to Shark that he purposely left his Deck on the plant pot in order to get Shark disqualified.
