It reminded me of a protestant nutjob called Josué Irión that gave some conferences in the nineties(? saying things like while you look at the pokemon cards the devil guides you to the train rails to kill you, and that watching the pokemon anime will get you demon-induced epilepsy... (There was an episode that gave some children epilepsy attacks, from quickly flashing lights)
Also, this is my first post. So hello, I'm from Spain :)
Los pokimon 

Well, Josue Yrión had a point about Yugioh. That was an openly occult anime and card game that was very popular in schools for a few years for some reason.
I remember  the anime was about a boy who have a magical puzzle from his grandfather, who had found it in an Egyptian tomb, and the puzzle had the spirit of a old pharaoh inside that possessed him and helped him win card duels. 
The card game in the anime was created based on sorcery duels between magicians of Ancient Egypt, in fact the iconic card of the boy/pharaoh protagonist is a magician. 
There were more magical artifacts that had heroes or villains, for example a villain had a magical eye that was literally the Eye of Hours, which allowed him to read people's minds and he used it to cheat in duels.
Another had a magic staff that allowed him to control other people. 
A girl, who was the sister of the boy with the staff, who were guardians of tombs in Egypt or something like that, had a magic necklace with which she could see the future, and there were more but I don't remember. 
There were "Egyptian Gods" cards that were the most powerful in the anime and unlike normal cards, these had the own will, and could attack people in the real world, and the villain with the staff wanted to get them. And the pharaoh wanted to avoid it
Already the cards, there were many that were demons, sorcerers, magicians, occult symbols, egyptian symbols obviously, etc.
That anime, seen in perspective, was very occult, and was broadcast for children and so was the card game.
