Face-up (表（おもて）側（がわ）表（ひょう）示（じ） omotegawa hyōji) is a position in which the card face is visible. A card that is face-up on the field or the top of the Deck or that is banished face-up may be freely examined by either player at any time. This is the opposite of face-down.

Continuous Effects only apply while the card is is face-up in the ap. Many cards must be face-up on the field to activate their effects.
