Yu-Gi-Oh! R[]
- Yugi Muto uses this card in the special chapter, during his duel against Masumi Momono. He Special Summons this card from his hand after negating a Trap Card with the effect of "Domain of the Dark Ruler". This card's other effect then destroys Masumi's "Tualatin". After Masumi passes his next turn, this card attacks him directly and wins the duel for Yugi.
- Its attack name was 冥王葬送 (Mei Ou Sousou) which translates into Funeral March of the Dark Lord, also translated into Hades Funeral in some versions.
- The effect was slightly different in the manga, with his effect being triggered as long as a Trap card was used to negate the effect of a card, not limited to being a Counter Trap. However, Yugi did activate a Trap card to "counter" Masumi's Trap card by negating it, which in turn activates Van'Dalgyon's effect of destroying one opponent's card since the negated card is a Trap card.
- Do note however, that what Yugi did is impossible in the TCG/OCG, as in the manga version, the destruction effect is activated at the same time as its Summoning, allowing "Tualatin" to be destroyed before Van'Dalgyon hits the field, while in the TCG/OCG card, the destruction effect activates AFTER Van'Dalgyon is Summoned; at that time "Tualatin" would still be in the field, which means the effect of "Tualatin" that prevents monsters of certain Attribute from being Summoned is still applied, and if DARK is the chosen Attribute, Van'Dalgyon cannot be Summoned.
