*[[Narm Charm]]: Kengo Dojun/Blood Shepherd is ridiculously edgy, but also played completely straight and a [[Magnificent Bastard]]. His intro in particular is a case of this.

**Aoi's [[Magical Girl]] style Transformation Sequence into Blue Maiden after teaming up with Aqua, while considered a bit cheesy, is also considered awesome as it marks her transition to a full protagonist alongside Playmaker and Soulburner.
*[[Never Live It Down]]:The recap episodes have become this to the point where they have become a meme and a drinking game on this very page. It doesn't help that there are so many in just the first season.

*[[No Yay]]:Playmaker and Brave Max. It doesn't help that one of Brave Max's deluded fantasies of Playmaker features him with exaggeratedly fancy eyelashes, accompanied with white sparkles.

*[[Older Than They Think]]: While Speed Duels were popularized by Duel Links, they were originally made for the Duel Terminal arcade machines.

*[[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]]:Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Naoki Shima was initially the series' resident Scrappy, for being a gonkish annoying character that constantly trying to talk a big game, and mocking Yusaku for his older duel disk and for playing a casual LIGHT deck, which is actually a decoy from his real deck. Although the events of Episode 27 mitigates this, giving him [[Character Development]] by conquering his fear and going into VRAINS, even beating a Knight of Hanoi.

*[[The Scrappy]]: As of Season 2, Go gets a lot of heat. Aside from ditching his old Gouki deck in favor of Dinowrestlers, his reason for pulling a Face–Heel Turn is very petty to the point of undergoing Training from Hell just to get his hands on Playmaker for being better than him. He even played a part in Earth's permanent termination and dismisses the Lost Incident as just another Tuesday, making him the worst character in VRAINS thus far.
*[[Self Fanservice]]:While they are already good-looking, Playmaker and Soulburner are nonetheless often drawn more muscular in Fan-Art, usually a swimmer physique.

**Jin Kusanagi is probably the biggest Woobie of this series. Just like Yusaku he is a kid who got kidnapped and tortured during the lost incident, but unlike Yusaku he is only an [[Empty Shell]] after the incident. And after learning the truth of the incident and starting to make a recovery, he gets his soul stolen after his brother Shoichi asks him to come live with him.

**So far compared to the other girls, Aoi has taken a ridiculous amount of abuse over the course of this series. Both physically AND mentally. Beforehand, the worst each girl ever went through was being brainwashed by a villain. A special note does go to Aki who was momentarily put in a coma and Yuzu who suffered a 10 Episode death, so far in Vrains, Aoi has lost her parents at a relatively young age and been forced to constantly move from one place to another with her brother, suffered from what looked to be anxiety and depression throughout Season 1, been brainwashed by the Knights of Hanoi and put into a coma, and been brutally defeated by Spectre, the one responsible for putting her in a coma in 34, which ended with her landing face first into the ground and put into another coma.
*[[What an Idiot!]]: Viewers are flabbergasted that GO failed to use Gouki Poison Mist against Revolver, which would not only inflict 700 damage, but also prevent Revolver from activating his Set Mirror Force on the same turn, and allow GO to deliver a One Turn Kill.

*[[Win the Crowd]]: The first episode of the dub that was shown during the re-run of Pyramid of Light received rather positive reactions, and the announcements by several of the voice actors have been praised too, given that half of them clearly enjoy being associated with the series.
