Line 46:
*[[Magic Versus Science]]: VRAINS has heavier focus on science and is more of a scientific them than the previous entries, even more so than ARC-V.
*[[Melee a Trois]]:Yusaku.Sol tech and KOH seems to be competing for Ignis
*[[Ominous Chanting]]:Playmaker and GO's Duel is accompanied with one after the former Link Summons Decode Talker.
*[[Omnicidal Maniac]]: The Knights of Hanoi's main objective is to annihilate the VR world, but their reasons are yet to be revealed.'
Line 65 ⟶ 64:
**The same can be said for [[The Rival|Rival characters]] of their respective series, as they ranged from [[Jerkass]] to [[Cool Big Bro]].Revolver is not only flat-out villainous (even more so than Death-T Kaiba) but also leads a group of [[Omnicidal Maniacs]].
**The first duel the protagonist usually fights is usually a recurring or at least named character, but the Starter Villain here is instead an unnamed member of the Knights of Hanoiitle
**Usually a main character loses or is forced to end early in the second on-screen Duel, be it in the moment or via a memory. Yugi had the least have some LP left after playing a timed match with Pegasus, Judai's duel with Manjoume had to be called off before it could be finished, Yusei was shown losing to Jack in a flashback, Todoroki beat Yuma while Yuzu defeated Yuya. Yusaku's second duel shown was a victory against Go.
**Subverting the tropes set by Yuma and Yuya, Yusaku did in deed start the series with Link Monsters in his deck, even if he did obtain a new one in his first Duel.
**When Yusaku obtained Firewall Dragon and was set on playing it immediately, Revolver immediately activated a combo to end the duel in a DRAW rather than let the known card creation effect play out and create a situation for Yusaku to win, as opposed to previous villains who would have either not been able to stop it or arrogantly believed they could survive anything that the protagonist could throw at them.
**It also subverts the debut of the main character's ace monster, as Yusaku's first Link Summoning of Firewall Dragon takes place during his second Duel against Revolver as oppesed to Yuya and Yuma summoning their respective ace monsters at the start of the series.
*[[Title Drop]]:Into The VRAINS
*[[Transformation Sequence]]: Some Charisma Duelists undergo a change in appearance in this manner when logging into Link VRAINS.
*[[Tron Lines]]: VR forms have these.
*[[Villain With Good Publicity]]:Implied with the SOL Technology Inc. They are a Mega Corp. whose main source of power comes from the Cyberse, their executives minus Akira (who is still lower in the company hierarchy anyways) are suspiciously unwilling to make any contact with the public and seemingly using Akira as an unofficial spokesman of sorts. The one and only other person they've contacted other than Akira is Ema, but she is a mercenary. Other than that they always show up as giant holographic projections of chess pieces and have yet to show their real appearances, despite such odd secrecy is obviously excessive. To wrap it up, Hanoi is explicitly referring to the Cyberse - the company's main source of power - as something dangerous and all of Hanoi's higher-ups shown are presented as fully committed to their stated goal of destroying it.
*[[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]:Most of the characters hair are coloured into these.
*[[Your Mind Makes It Real]]:Taking too much damage in Link VRAINS will have adverse effect on a Duelist's physical brain that could potentially them a brain-dead vegetable. An average duel might not cause that much damage, but falling off a D-Board in a Speed Duel could prove to be fatal.
