Rulings
- Kinka-Byo's effect targets 1 Level 1 monster in your GY and continues to target it while it is on the field.
- Removing the Special Summoned monster from play when Kinka-Byo is removed from the field does not start a Chain.
- When Kinka-Byo is flipped face-down its effect disappears. If it is flipped face-up and Special Summons another Level 1 monster, when it is removed from the field only the newly Special Summoned Level 1 monster is removed from play. The previously Special Summoned Level 1 monster remains on the field.
- If you Special Summon Arcana Force 0 - The Fool with Kinka-Byo's effect and the coin toss for Arcana Force 0 - The Fool is heads, Kinka-Byo's effect is negated and it is destroyed. Arcana Force 0 - The Fool remains on the field.
