** Windy and Lightning are anti-humanity. While initially claiming to simply not trust humans, [[spoiler:they actually see themselves as superior to humans and desire the enslavement, and later extermination, of humanity. They are even willing to kidnap and reprogram their fellow Ignis just to make certain they join their cause.]]

*[[Darker and Edgier]]: In contrast to ARC-V its main themes are, ironically, happiness and entertainment. VRAINS makes it clear that it's at least darker than ZEXAL and has the potential to become even darker than ARC-V, judging by its Closer to Earth approach and Cyber Punk themes as well as having a [[Kid Detective]] main character who hunts down a group of Cyberspace busting maniacs.

*[[Dub Induced Plot Hole]]:During Blue Angel's duel with Specter she uses a monster effect to retrieve her three copies of "Trickstar Reincarnation". In the original Japanese it's explained that she can't set the traps on the same turn, so she uses "Trickstar Treat" to set and activate them during Specter's turn. In the English dub this explanation is cut out for no reason, with the space filled with Specter doing more Evil Gloating, making it seem like Blue Angel made a misplay by not just setting the card and risking the use of another trap with a huge backlash for no reason.
*[[Defrosting Ice Queen|Defrosting Ice King]]: Yusaku started out as a person who doesn't like standing out due to him being a hacker but changes when he tried dueling for the first time.

*[[Deconstruction]]:Similar to how [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|ARC-V]] deconstructed many tropes found in the first four entries, VRAINS might be considered as this to the ENTIRE franchise, given the [[Cyber Punk]] and cynical themes of the said series:

*[[Red Herring]]:For a long time, it is believed that Aoi and Go are the origins for the WATER and EARTH Ignis' due to Aoi's [[Color Motif]] and Go's [[Heroic Build]] respectively. Season 2 shows they are not; Aqua's origin is Aoi's childhood friend Miyu, while Earth's origin is Specter. [[Irony|In a twist of fate, Aoi and Go end up paired up with Aqua and Earth anyway, with Aoi befriending Aqua, while Earth is integrated into Go's A.I. chip]]
