Yûgiô (1996)
The Heart of the Cards
Seto Kaiba, owner of Kaiba Corporation, is looking for the legendary Blue Eyes White Dragon card. He finds out that the card is in the hands of Yugi Moto’s Grandfather. Kaiba has his henchman kidnap him and he duels and beats him. When Yugi finds out, he rushes to Kaiba Corp. When he gets there, Grandpa has been beaten and Kaiba steals and rips the Blue Eyes Card. Yugi then faces down Kaiba in his holographic duel arena. When Kaiba summons all three of the remaining Blue Eyes White Dragons Yugi realizes that there is only one way for him to clench victory...
The Gauntlet is Thrown
One night Yugi gets a package that contains a glove, two stars, and a videotape. He plays the videotape and it turns out it is from Duel Monsters creator Maximillion Pegasus. Pegasus freezes time in order to duel Yugi. Pegasus is predicting Yugi's every move and it turns out it is from a Millennium Item, the Millennium Eye! Pegasus wins and tells Yugi to compete in the Duelist Kingdom Championship. When Yugi refuses, Pegasus steals the soul of his Grandpa.
Journey to the Duelist Kingdom
Yugi finally receives his long await invitation to Pegasus’ Duelist Kingdom tournament. Joy and the others want to come along and help but without Star Chips they can’t go. Yugi borrows one to Joey and Téa and Tristan sneak on the ship. They also see their classmate Bakura. On the ship, they meet various duelists like Mai Valentine and Weevil Underwood, who throws Yugi’s Exodia cards into the ocean!
Into The Hornet's Nest
As the Duelist Kingdom tournament begins, Maximillion Pegasus explains that only those who can win a total of ten Star Chips will be qualified to enter the finals. Determined to take his revenge on Weevil for throwing his Exodia cards into the ocean, Yugi is lured into the forest where a dueling arena appears. Once the duel begins, Weevil quickly begins to exploit the advantages of Pegasus's new rules system in an attempt to gain an early lead, but Yugi is no novice and will not be as easy to defeat as Weevil hopes.
The Ultimate Great Moth
Yugi's duel against Weevil continues, but despite turning the tables, things are far from over. Attempting to foil Weevil's plans, Yugi finds himself worse off than ever as his opponent summons the seemingly impenetrable Cocoon of Evolution. Is nothing in Yugi's deck strong enough to defeat this creature before the Ultimate Great Moth is summoned to the field?
First Duel
When Joey accepts a duel with Mai, the girl from the boat, his cocky attitude vanishes after just the first move; because Mai makes it without even looking at what card it was she played! Forgetting everything he's learned about the game, Joey plays without thinking, because his mind is stuck on figuring out how Mai plays without looking. Yugi tries to help as much as he can but Joey still can't think of a way to beat Mai's Harpie Lady's.
Attack from the Deep
While searching for food, Yugi and the others eat some fishing belonging to an ocean duelist named Mako. Mako uses this as bait and convinces Yugi to duel. Yugi agrees and starts his duel. Yugi is having a tough time battling Mako’s sea monsters but matters are made worse when Mako takes away almost all of Yugi’s land battlefield.
Everything's Relative
At Pegasus's castle, a small masked kid is escaping a cell. Pegasus tells his guards to watch Yugi as that who he will seek. The masked kid finally catches up with Yugi and wants to duel him. Yugi discovers that it is real Kaiba's brother Mokuba! Meanwhile, Kaiba mysteriously appears on the island ready to duel Yugi.
Duel with a Ghoul
Yugi and the other wonder how Kaiba could be on the island. With no other choice Yugi faces down Kaiba in a rematch. However, something about Kaiba doesn't seem right to Yugi and he wants to know why.
Give up the Ghost
Kaiba guesses the wrong hat twice, and Yugi's Dark Magician defeats the Blue Eyes White Dragon. However, "Kaiba" sends out another Blue Eyes White Dragon. All looks bad, until Kaiba, who is still sneaking around, realizes that Yugi is dueling an imposter of him. Kaiba uploads a virus into "Kaiba's” Blue Eyes White Dragon, which makes its attack power lower, but Pegasus realizes that Kaiba is hacking into the system, and (while getting mad after realizing Kaiba isn't dead), stops the virus through his computer. Then, the imposter is revealed and Yugi vows to beat him and make him pay.
The Dueling Monkey
Yugi and his friends have given up their search for Mokuba, and they go to find more people to duel. However, Mai is doing very well for herself. She has won 8 star chips, and when Rex Raptor returns to duel her, he has only 5 star chips. Mai tells him that she will duel him, but only after he beats Joey in a duel. Rex sees this as an easy win and agrees. Rex's dinosaurs are too powerful and the back Joey in a corner. Even Joey's Flame Swordsman can't beat them! In addition, Rex has a hidden surprise waiting in his deck.
Trial by Red Eyes
Joey now faces Rex Raptor's most powerful card, the Red Eyes Black Dragon. Joey finally figures out the only way he can win is to call upon his Time Wizard. The plan works and Joey wins more star chips as well as Rex’s Red Eyes card. After winning Yugi and the others meet up travel into the woods and set up a campfire by Mai. After she leaves she is kidnapped and Bakura shows up at the campfire.
Evil Spirit of the Ring
Bakura has revealed his true intentions and now he wants the Millennium Puzzle. Yami steps in and prepares to duel Bakura for the greatest prize. The only setback, Yugi, Tea, Joey, and Tristan are inside their favorite cards! If they are destroyed, their very souls are! Can Yami win?
The Light at the End of the Tunnel
Having heard somebody scream, Yugi, Joey, Tristan, Tea and Bakura run to see what has happened. Reaching a nearby dueling arena, they arrive just in time to see Mai's Harpy Lady Sisters be defeated in a duel. As Mai looks on in dismay, her opponent introduces himself as Panik, one of the Duelist Kingdom Eliminators. As Panik claims all of Mai's star chips, Mai warns the group to get away before Panik gets to them as well, but Yugi stands strong, challenging Panik to a duel to win back Mai's star chips. Mai tries to persuade Yugi not to duel Panik, unsure as to whether he would be able to win, but Panik seems eager to duel Yugi. Panik surrounds his side of the field and leaves Yugi confused, as Yugi cannot see any of his monsters.
Winning Through Intimidation
Yugi may have found a way to defeat Panik, but has he lost the plot by telling his opponent how he intends to defeat him! As the Eliminator continues to build his army in the cover of darkness, Yugi must pull out all the stops if he hopes to win the duel.
The Scars of Defeat
Pegasus has a meeting with the KaibaCorp executives to plan their takeover, and to discuss Mokuba. Meanwhile, Kaiba himself returns to Duelist Kingdom looking for Mokuba. He lands at Yugi's campsite in the middle of the night, which results in a fight between him and Joey. Kaiba then challenges Joey to a duel using his new duel disk technology so he can test it for his duel against Pegasus.
Arena of Lost Souls (1)
Following a bad defeat by Kaiba, Joey has a bad dream regarding it. In the morning, Bandit Kieth and his followers decide to take out Yugi and Joey in order to get into Pegasus' castle. Their first goal is to take out Joey. To do this, they lure him into a cave where he is forced to fight Bonz, without his friends support.
Arena of Lost Souls (2)
Things were looking bad for Joey. With three zombie cards, and Bonz adding all kinds over zombie power ups to them, Joey couldn't kill any of them without getting hurt himself. Meanwhile, Yugi and company were still searching for Joey. Bakura accidentally steps on a switch, which triggers an Indiana Jonesish boulder scene to ensue. A boulder chases them all to a dead end. After it runs down Bakura, Tristan tried punching it, and it just pops, revealing itself to be a balloon boulder with a speaker. It would appear that Pegasus wanted to scare someone, and he got all the screaming on tape. Back at the duel, to make things worse, Bonz sends out the Pumpkin King, which injects ectoplasm into the zombies to power them up even more. Joey gets his time wizard, but the spinner hits the skull, and all of Joey's monsters are killed. Now, Yugi finally finds Joey, and helps him out. It goes down to the wire, but Joey wins. Now Joey has 8 star chips. Bandit Keith, in a rage, steals all of Bonz's and his other henchmen's star chips, seals up the cave with a boulder, trapping Yugi and the gang inside, and heads for Pegasus's castle, as he now has 10 star chips.
Double Trouble Duel (1)
Yugi and his friends try to push the boulder out of the way but it will not budge. They start walking threw the underground tunnels. Bakura's Millennium Ring starts to draw Bakura threw the maze. Everyone follows and when Bakura stops, they are overlooking a small Duel Monsters arena. Then, the Paradox brothers appear and challenge Yugi and Joey to a double duel, if Yugi and Joey win, they can leave, if they lose, then they are stuck below ground forever.
Double Trouble Duel (2)
The duel between Yugi and Joey Vs. Para and Dox continues. Yugi and Joey try to keep the Celtic Guardian, Flame Swordsman, Axe Raider and Dark Magician in a solid group, but Para plays Magical Labyrinth and Joey's monsters are cut off from Yugi's. Then, The ParaDox brothers lay down the mysterious Jirai-Gumo who is hiding in the Labyrinth waiting to strike. Plus, then unleash Dungeon Worm which hides underground. Then, just as Yugi and Joey start to feel like they are gaining an edge, Para and Dox summon the legendary Gate Guardian.
Double Trouble Duel (3)
With all three elemental guardians assembled, it seems the Paradox brothers are unbeatable with their new Gate Guardian, a Trinity monster in the same class as Exodia. Nevertheless, Yugi and Joey are relentless in their battle to win entrance to Pegasus's castle. Turn after turn Yugi and Joy just barely manage to survive the attacks of Gate Guardian. Eventually, after summoning the Red Eyes Black Skull Dragon, they manage to pull off a win, but now they have to decide which door to take to get out, which is the right one?
Face Off (1)
After solving the Paradox Brothers' puzzle, Yugi and Joey are on their way to Pegasus's castle for their final duels, but little do they know that their journey is far from over yet. Mokuba's soul has been trapped by Pegasus in a card, and the only way for Kaiba to free him is to challenge Yugi in a rematch. With the five star chips Kaiba has been given, his duel with Yugi will ether gain him access to a duel with Pegasus or eliminate him. As the others climb steps Kaiba confronts them and won't move until Yugi duels him. Yugi agrees and the battle begins. The first rounds go evenly matched, but what is Kaiba hiding?
Face Off (2)
As the battle on the rooftop rages, both Yugi and Kaiba have 1500 life points remaining. However, Yugi is beginning to worry because Kaiba seems different. He is not toying with Yugi as he did in their first match, but is getting down to business. As Kaiba makes his next move, he plays the 'Despell' card, destroying Yugi's 'Swords of Revealing Light', the card which shut down his Blue Eyes White Dragons the last time they dueled. After playing a card, Yugi looks at Kaiba's hand and sees a Blue Eyes White Dragon. Then, Yugi falls prey to Kaiba's Crush Card and is forced to play his weak monsters.
Face Off (3)
It seems like Yugi's hope is lost as Kaiba has managed to created the Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon. However, as Yugi draws the card that could be his last, he begins to see a way out of defeat. Playing the Kuriboh, the weakest monster card in the game, he begins to multiply it with a magic card creating an unstoppable defense. Kaiba continues to attack but no attack will get past the regenerating Kuriboh. Yugi is finally winning, but Kaiba will do anything to win this duel, even risk his own life! Kaiba says that he will win and save Mokuba.
Shining Friendship
After losing his duel to Kaiba, Yugi only has five star chips and is afraid to duel again, thinking that his other self will take over and cause him to do bad things. Mai finally arrives at the castle, with the eight star chips she promised Yugi. However, Yugi will not take them, so Tea duels Mai for them.
Champion vs. Creator (1)
With ten star chips each, Yugi, Joey, Mai and the others head back to Pegasus's castle ready for their chance to duel him. As the three submit their star chips to enter, the guard stops Tristan, Bakura and Tea as they don't even have dueling gloves. But determined to get in, Mai flirts with the guard and they all sneak in, shutting the guard outside. Inside the castle they find Bandit Keith who is also waiting for his duel with Pegasus. He tells them that they'll have to wait for the current duel to end first, a duel between Kaiba and Pegasus. Kaiba demands Pegasus uses his Duel disk, but when Pegasus says that he will use Mokuba to duel with it Kaiba declines and agrees to a normal duel arena. Yugi warns Kaiba about the Millennium Eye but Kaiba doesn't listen and Pegasus starts to gain a lead.
Champion vs. Creator (2)
As Kaiba continues his duel with Pegasus, Yugi tells the others about the power of Pegasus's Millennium Eye and how it allows Pegasus to see the cards Kaiba is holding. The others doubt what Yugi is saying, but Joey seems to think that if the Millennium Eye really has such powers there will be no way for Kaiba to win. Yugi disagrees with this, reminding Joey that Kaiba is the champion of the game and hopefully he has a reserve plan to help him win from behind. Meanwhile, Kaiba is also beginning to realize the power of the Millennium Eye, but still believes that he can win by playing the cards in his hand. Pegasus then turns the tables by using Kaiba's Crush Card against him! it barely any cards left, will Kaiba be able to win?
The Night Before
As night falls on the Duelist Kingdom, after learning who will they will be dueling the next day, everyone begins preparing for the coming day in different ways. While Mai tries to strengthen up her deck for her duel against Yugi, Joey drifts into a deep sleep about donuts. Tea, Bakura, and Tristan are searching around the dueling platforms, determined to find out how Pegasus defeated Kaiba so easily earlier that day. After finding a hole in the wall that pointed to the spot where Kaiba's cards had been, they head off to the tower, which lined up with the hole. Meanwhile, Yugi has found the three cards with his grandfather, Kaiba, and Mokuba's souls trapped inside. They warn him that he must unlock the secret of his millennium puzzle and defeat Pegasus.
Duel Identity (1)
The duelist Kingdom playoffs begin, starting with the duel between Yugi and Mai. As Yugi's friends watch him from balcony, Yugi and Mai begin to duel, but Yugi is not willing to accept the help of the spirit of the puzzle anymore, afraid of what it might do to Mai. With Yugi only half concentrating on the duel, and also trying to keep the spirit under control, Mai immediately takes the lead with the help of her Mirror Wall, a permanent trap that halves the attack points of any creature that attacks. Unable to touch her Harpie Lady, and still rejecting the help of the spirit, Yugi makes mistake after mistake while Mai powers up her Harpy.
Duel Identity (2)
As the first playoff duel rages, Yugi has been reduced to 300 life points while Mai's life points remain at an untouched 2000. With the Shadow of Eyes card luring Yugi's monsters into attack mode and the Mirror Wall then reducing their attack points, Yugi seems helpless against the power of Mai's Harpy Combo Team. Yugi still won't accept help from the spirit of the puzzle either. After some reassurance from his friends, Yugi trusts the spirit and together they think of a plan to defeat Mai.
Keith's Machinations (1)
Just as the duel between Joey and Bandit Keith is about to begin, Joey realizes that he doesn't have his qualification card. The referee gives Joey five minutes to find the card. Joey searches his room for it, but, of course, he can't find the card because Keith stole it. Just as Joey's about to give up, Mai appears and gives Joey her qualification card, as he needs it more than she does. Joey returns to the area, and Bandit Keith wonders how Joey got the card. Keith starts of the duel by placing a monster facedown. Joey does the same. Keith flips face-up his Pendulum Machine. When Joey attacks with a Magic Attack, it doesn't work. Keith begins his rampage and Joey is helpless!
Keith's Machinations (2)
With Joey in the lead, Keith gets angry and sends out the mighty Barrel Dragon who annihilates Joey's Axe Raider and Gerusies. Joey tries his Time Wizard and Baby Dragon combo, and it worked! However, Keith used his trap card Time Machine to bring back the Barrel Dragon at full power. Joey plays Red Eyes Black Dragon and uses his Copycat card to get the Magic Metal Force and activate it, creating the Red Eyes Metal Black Dragon! He destroys the Barrel Dragon, but Keith plays his Slot Machine in defense and starts to cheat with his Seven Completed cards. Can Joey Win and face Yugi in the next round?
Best of Friends, Best of Duelists (1)
A storm appears above Duelist Kingdom as Joey and Yugi prepare for their duel. Pegasus congratulates them for getting this far. Yugi and Joey vow to give there all in this duel, as they are both fighting for a cause: Joey for his sister and Yugi to stop Pegasus. The duel finally begins. In the first round Joey’s monster easily beats Yugi’s and Yugi calls a time-out and tells Joey that, since they arrived on the island, Yugi has taught Joey everything he knows about Duel Monsters and that Joey has left himself wide open for his next and more powerful monster who easily destroys his. The battle rages on with each player playing his best. Finally, Joey manages to summon the Black Skull Dragon, and he tells Yugi he is about to lose.
Best of Friends, Best of Duelists (2)
Joey seems unstoppable with the Black Skull Dragon, but Yugi isn't about to go down. He plays the Dark Magician with Magical Hats. Joey then attacks an empty hat. Then Joey plays Garoozis in an attempt to lure Yugi into attacking but Yugi doesn't. Then Yugi plays a card hidden in another hat. Joey attacks and once again hits an empty hat. On his third try, Joey hits the hat with the Spell-Binding Circle and His Dragon's attack is lowered to 2500 while he switched Gerusies to defense. Then Yugi played the Book of Secret Arts to power up the Dark Magician to 2800, thus destroying Joey's dragon. But then Joey played Baby Dragon and another card face down. Yugi thought it was the Time Wizard, so he attacked. But it was Kunai with Chain and the Dark Magician was captured by Garoozis. Then, using the heart of the cards, Joey drew and played Time Wizard. The Time Roulette succeeded and a Thousand Dragon and Dark Sage were created. But the Thousand Dragon's attack was blocked by the magic effect of the Dark Sage, allowing Yugi to play any card in his deck during either player's turn! After using Makiu Mist to shut-down Joey's attack, Yugi used Reborn the Monster to bring back the Black Skull Dragon, thus ending the duel. After, Yugi gave the three million dollars to Joey for his sister. Now it's time for Yugi to duel with Pegasus.
Yugi vs. Pegasus: Match of the Millennium (1)
With only Pegasus standing in the way of rescuing Grandpa, Kaiba, and Mokuba, Yugi prepares for the toughest duel yet. Since he has already won the prize money, Yugi hands the check over to Joey for Serenity. As the duel begins, Pegasus quickly summons his Toon Monsters.
Yugi vs. Pegasus: Match of the Millennium (2)
Pegasus continues to crush Yugi's monsters with the power of his Millennium Eye. Then he plays his Toonworld card, which holds back Yugi’s forces. Then, Pegasus uses the trap card Gorgon's Eye, which makes putting monsters in defense mode useless as well. Yugi tries to hold back Pegasus but Yugi continues to be overwhelmed. Pegasus used the Doppelganger card to clone Yugi’s Summoned Skull and turn it into a toon and rampages Yugi’s field. Meanwhile, the guards corner Tristan and the soulless Mokuba, but the Millennium Ring-possessed Bakura arrives and uses a Chain Energy duel card to bind the guards. Then they come to a passageway leading out onto a sheer cliff-side but Bakura's Millennium Ring prepares to summon help from the Shadow Realm so they can escape.
Yugi vs. Pegasus: Match of the Millennium (3)
As Yugi continues to duel Pegasus, he begins to hatch a plan to defeat the Millennium Eye. Yugi and Yami Yugi "switch" minds from turn to turn using the eye, doing a "Mind Shuffle". Yugi plays a facedown card then switches to Yami Yugi so the latter has to trust in Yugi's plays, but Pegasus can't read his mind to find out the cards. Using the Mind Shuffle, they prevent Pegasus reading what cards they have played, and use the Magic Hat and Living Arrow to protect their Dark Magician long enough to destroy the Toonworld and its inhabitants with the Mirror Force trap. With Yugi now in the lead, Pegasus decides to move the game up a notch, and prepares to shift the arena into the Shadow Realm and take the Millennium Puzzle piece.
Yugi vs. Pegasus: Match of the Millennium (4)
Pegasus is enraged that Yugi has mastered his Millennium Puzzle and developed the Mind Shuffle. Pegasus takes them both to the Shadow Realm and so begins a true Shadow Game. Pegasus plays Dark Eyes Illusionist, a card with no attack or defense points! Pegasus created the monster just for the tournament, so Yugi does not know its effect. Yugi decides to attack with Curse of Dragon. Unfortunately, the Dark Eyes' effect paralyzes all monsters that attack! Then Pegasus plays the Black Illusion Ritual Call that sacrifices the Dark Eyes Illusionist to summon another specially created creature: the mighty Relinquished! The monster consumes the Curse of Dragon. When Yugi attacks with his Dark Magician, the Curse of Dragon appears as a shield to protect Relinquished. The Dragon is destroyed and Yugi loses Life Points! As the Relinquished assimilates the Dark Magician, Yugi changes back to normal to draw one card and play it face down. Then the power of the Shadow Realm takes its toll and little Yugi collapses. Now the Spirit of the Puzzle must fight alone to avenge Yugi but Pegasus plays a self-destructing Jigen Bakudan that will destroy every creature on the field...but wipe out Yugi's life points in two turns. Meanwhile, Tristan discovers that the Millennium Ring took control of Bakura again and it wants Mokuba as it's new host! Tristan attacks and knocks the possessed Bakura out. Then he throws the Millennium Ring as far from the castle as he could. He then took both Mokuba and Bakura back to the arena and reunites with his friends, but they are unable to enter the Shadow Realm and help Yugi.
Yugi vs. Pegasus: Match of the Millennium (5)
Little Yugi collapses, leaving only the Spirit of the Puzzle to duel against Pegasus. Pegasus tries to read the Spirit's mind, but Téa, Joey and Tristan use their friendship ritual to focus their minds and block out Pegasus. Yami Yugi plays Mystic Box to get back his Dark Magician, then uses Brain Control on Pegasus' time bomb. Then he plays the card Yugi played face down, which was the Dark Magic Ritual card. Yami Yugi sacrifices Dark Magician and the captured Jigen Bakudan to summon his Magician of Black Chaos! Pegasus polymerizes his Relinquished with a Thousand-Eyes Idol to get his best monster, the Thousand-Eyes Restrict! As the Restrict attempts to capture the Chaos Mage, it also catches the two cards Yami Yugi played, Kuriboh and Multiply! Thousands of Kuriboh swarm over the Restrict then self-destruct due to the Jigen Bakudan, weakening the Restrict so the Magician of Black Chaos can destroy it. Yugi wins the duel! After the Shadow Realm area disappears, Pegasus is missing and the souls remain trapped! Meanwhile, Bakura shows up and we find out despite Tristan throwing his Millennium Ring into the ocean, he is still possessed by his item's spirit, which plans to fight Pegasus and gain his Millennium Eye.
Aftermath
Bakura engages the weakened Pegasus as the latter prepares to honor his bargain and unleash the souls. He easily wins since Pegasus is weakened from his duel with Yugi. As Croquet and Kemo carry his unconscious body away, Yugi and his friends read Pegasus' diary and find out how he met the mysterious Shadi in Egypt years ago and was given the Millennium Eye and planned to use its power to bring his love Cecilia back.
The Wrath of Rebecca
With Pegasus defeated and all the captured souls released, Yugi and his friends return to Domino and Yugi is reunited with Grandpa. However, the reunion is short lived when a girl named Rebecca comes to the Card Shop demanding that Grandpa hands over her Blue-Eyes card (the one Kaiba ripped in the first episode). Since Grandpa no longer has the card, she demands a duel with him. Yugi decides to take his place since his soul was just freed. However, Rebecca is also a Duel Monsters Champion.
The Ties of Friendship
As the duel continues, Yugi's grandfather reveals how he and Rebecca's grandfather Arthur Hawkins and he played a Duel Monsters game while trapped in a pyramid in Egypt. Although Yugi uses the Catapult Turtle and Brain Control to eliminate Rebecca's Millennium Shield and Cannon Soldier, she responds by sacrificing her monsters and plays the Shadow Ghoul, which gains extra attack from each of her monsters in the graveyard. But their game continues to parallel the one Yugi's grandfather and Hawkins played in the crypt.

He says that in a Battle Royale, everyone but yourself is an enemy. He succeeds in getting Yugi to attack him, and, through some strategy, succeeds in reducing Marik's life points to 0. Kaiba directly attacks Joey on his next turn reducing his life points to 0 as well. The two semi-finals duels will be Joey vs. Marik and Yugi vs. Kaiba!
The Darkness Returns (1)
Joey enters bravely in his match against Yami Marik. Marik informs Joey that this is a shadow game now, but Joey says he's willing to go through with it, and that he will make Marik pay for what he did to him and Yugi (taking control of Joey)and the pain he's caused Mai. Marik toys with him by playing a card that will take a card from Joey's hand every turn and discard it. Does Joey have a chance of beating Marik before he runs out of cards, or has his best cards discarded?
The Darkness Returns (2)
Marik's card continues to steal cards from Joey's hand, and if he doesn’t do something soon, he'll run out of cards! However, things look brighter for Joey as he summons his Jinzo, and delivers damage to Marik destroying all of Marik's Trap Cards. Marik is not worried for he can still summon the Winged Dragon of Ra. Can Joey keep Marik from summoning it? Things only begin to look worse for Joey, however, as Marik plays Lava Golem on Joey's side of the field.
The Darkness Returns (3)
With Marik's Lava Golem on his side of the field, things look bad for Joey. He has to give up 700 Life Points for each turn it's on the field, and since this is a Shadow Game, he'll feel the pain of the Lava Golem's heat. However, Joey overturns the situation by summoning Gilford the Lightning and gives Marik a run for his money. However, Joey's happiness is short lived, as Marik still has a few trap cards to keep his life points safe. To make matters worse, Marik uses Monster Reborn to summon The Winged Dragon of Ra. He then sacrifices 1000 LP to transform it into the Egyptian God Phoenix. Although he won't lose any life points from its attack, the pain of Ra's flames may be too much for Joey to survive!
The Darkness Returns (4)
The Winged Dragon of Ra is attacking Gilford the Lightning in its Egyptian God Phoenix mode. Gilford is destroyed, and because of the energy rope, Joey is almost zapped of all his strength. Yugi and co. are glad he still standing while Kaiba and Marik are shocked he survived. Serenity comes up to see that Joey is OK. The Winged Dragon of Ra disappears. Joey draws and summons Gearfried the Iron Knight and summons him. He is about to attack but he faints. They rush him to Kaiba Craft 3. Yugi is worried about Joey but the Millennium Necklace starts to glow and Yugi sees that he and Joey are about to duel. Seeing this image, Yugi decides go on to his duel with Kaiba.
Clash in the Coliseum (1)
The duel between Yugi and Kaiba begins with Kaiba using the virtual reality system to make the image of a giant Coliseum appear around the duel field. Yugi starts with Queen's Knight in defense mode and one card facedown. Kaiba summons X Head Cannon and sets one card facedown. Yugi summons Alpha The Magnet Warrior in defense mode and sets another card. Kaiba plays Soul Exchange so that he may gain control of Yugi's monsters and sacrifice them to summon Obelisk The Tormentor, but Yugi uses Change Of Heart to gain control of Kaiba's X Head Cannon, but Kaiba uses Enemy Controller and pays 1000 Life Points to regain control of X Head, so Yugi uses Lightforce Sword to seal Obelisk out of the duel for three turns before Kaiba can summon it. Kaiba ends his turn, then Yugi sets one card and ends his turn. Kaiba then summons Y Dragon Head, then fuses it with X Head Cannon to summon XY Dragon Cannon, which attacks and destroys Alpha. Kaiba then plays Mandate Of A Heavenly Voice, allowing him to select one high level monster from Yugi's deck and add it to his hand, so he chooses Slifer the Sky Dragon. Yugi gives it to him, but then uses Exchange to get Slifer into his hand. They both declare the battle of the gods is about to begin.
Clash in the Coliseum (2)
Ishizu watches over Odion and recalls the events of her and Marik's past. Meanwhile, at the duel, Yugi thanks Kaiba for letting him get Slifer in his hand so quickly. Yugi summons Big Shield Gardna in defense position and he places one card facedown. Kaiba draws and summons Z Metal Tank and fuses it with his XY Dragon Cannon to summon XYZ Dragon Cannon. XYZ attacks and destroys Big Sheild Gardna, but Yugi activates Soul Rope, allowing him to pay 1000 Life Points to special summon a monster from his deck, so he summons King's Knight. Since both the King's and Queen's Knights are on the field, Yugi special summons Jack's Knight from his deck. Kaiba sets two cards and ends his turn. On Yugi's turn, he sacrifices his three knights to summon Slifer the Sky Dragon, who has an attack and defense of 3000. Slifer attacks XYZ, but Kaiba uses Interdimensional Transporter to remove XYZ from the game until the end of the turn. Yugi sets one card, reducing Slifer's attack and defense to 2000 and ends his turn. Since Kaiba now has XYZ back on the field and Obelisk in his hand, he sacrifices XYZ for Obelisk.
Clash in the Coliseum (3)
With Yugi controlling Slifer the Sky Dragon and Kaiba controlling Obelisk The Tormentor, the duel of the God cards seems to go on and on because they both use a wide assortment of Magic and Trap cards to prevent their God card from being destroyed. Eventually, the two monsters' attack powers become equal and they attack and destroy each other at the same time, causing a massive light show. What will result from the attacks?
Clash in the Coliseum (4)
The God cards destroy each other at the same time, creating a huge light show and destroying the televisions that are broadcasting the duel. The explosions cause Yugi and Kaiba to go into a flashback where they watch their ancient selves begin a duel. The Priest summons Blue Eyes White Dragon and the Pharaoh summons Dark Magician. When the flashback ends, Kaiba summons Blue Eyes White Dragon and Yugi summons Dark Magician, creating an image similar to the tablet in the museum. As Yugi and Kaiba return to the duel, they notice that both Egyptian God Cards have been destroyed. However, with renewed zeal for winning, Kaiba manages to summon his Blue Eyes White Dragon, while Yugi summons the Dark Magician.
Clash in the Coliseum (5)
Joey, still unconscious from his duel with Marik, dreams that he is in a Duel Monsters tournament, but loses a duel, but he remembers an important lesson taught to him by Yugi. Yugi's duel with Kaiba continues and Kaiba is able to use his Lord of Dragons and Flute Of Summoning Dragons to call out all three Blue Eyes White Dragons. As all three dragons attack, Yugi is reminded by Joey of the advice that he once gave Joey: "Consider all of your options". Yugi uses the effect of Flute Of Summoning Dragon to summon Joey's Red Eyes Black Dragon, but will that be enough to stop Kaiba's assault?
Clash in the Coliseum (6)
Joey arrives just in time to see Kaiba prepare his final attack. Kaiba plays his Final Attack Orders trap card, meaning that all of Yugi's and Kaiba's monsters must be in attack mode for the rest of the duel, and that they must take 3 cards out of their deck to play with and throw the rest into the graveyard. And after that, Kaiba plays Monster Reborn to revive the Blue Eyes white Dragon and plays Polymerization to fuse them all together into the Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon. Yugi mimics this move, by playing Double Spell. He revives Buster Blader and fuses it with Dark Magician to form the Dark Paladin. Kaiba attacks, but Yugi plays Diffusion, forcing Kaiba's Ultimate Dragon to split into the 3 separate Blue Eyes. Using this, Yugi can power up the Dark Paladin to 4900 attack points. Yugi follows by playing Diffusion Wave Motion, which allows him to attack all the monsters on his opponent’s field with one monster. The Dark Paladin destroys the 3 Blue Eyes White Dragons and Kaiba's Life Points drop to 0.
Battle for the Bronze (1)
Kaiba is in a state of shock after losing to Yugi. He then notices that Joey is standing there, awake, and they have their reunion. Kaiba still can't believe that he lost, so Yugi tells him that the power of friendship helped him win. If he didn't have Joey's Red Eyes Black Dragon, he would have lost the duel. Kaiba still refuses to believe any of that, but bitterly throws Yugi his God Card: Obelisk the Tormentor. As Kaiba tries to leave, Joey confronts him and challenges him to a duel. Although Kaiba thinks it will be a waste of his time, he never backs down from a challenge. Right from the duel's start, Kaiba takes a huge lead, by getting Joey caught in his Crush Card trap. Meanwhile, Marik gets control of Tea again, and runs back to the top of the duel tower to confront his evil side.
Battle for the Bronze (2)
The duel between Joey and Kaiba continues. Kaiba takes out a significant number of Joey's life points, but suffice it to say, Joey does not give up. He rallies back in a big way, managing to not only destroy Kaiba's Blue Eyes White Dragon, but also to use Monster Reborn to bring it to his side. However, Kaiba summons another dragon, making it a showdown of Blue Eyes vs. Blue Eyes.
Battle for the Bronze (3)
Joey tries to use his Baby Dragon/Time Wizard to bring out his Thousand Dragon and weaken Kaiba's Blue Eyes White but it doesn't work and he loses. Meanwhile Yugi decides not to tell Tea about her being possessed by Marik's good side.
The Final Face Off (1)
Yugi is now all that stands between Marik and his twisted desire to rule the world. Even though Yugi has two Egyptian God cards, Obelisk the Tormentor and Slifer the Sky Dragon, his chances at defeating Marik's Egyptian God card, The Winged Dragon of Ra, are slim. However, Kaiba has given Yugi a card which may be what he needs to take Ra down, Fiend's Sanctuary. Of course, Kaiba still doesn't believe in his ancient past, but Ishizu thinks he'll be proven wrong soon enough.
The Final Face Off (2)
The final Battle City duel continues. Marik has summoned his Egyptian God card, The Winged Dragon of Ra via Monster Reborn in its Phoenix mode. Slifer the Sky Dragon, Yugi's Egyptian God card, is unable to scratch it, even with its ability to reduce its stats by 2000. Marik pays 1000 Life Points to destroy Slifer. Yugi is still able to continue the match. Even with Slifer destroyed, Yugi still has Obelisk waiting in the wings. However, can Yugi summon it in time?
The Final Face Off (3)
As the concluding duel to Battle City rages on, things are looking good for Yugi. His newly summoned Egyptian God card, Obelisk the Tormentor has taken a big chunk of Marik's Life Points. Despite the major blow, Marik isn't too worried, reminding Yugi that it's Marik who suffers as a result. As the duel rages on, the good Marik confronts the unconscious Odion with some shocking words.
The Final Face Off (4)
Marik could very well be on the verge of defeating Yugi. On his next turn, he will activate Monster Reborn, allowing him to once again revive The Winged Dragon of Ra from the Graveyard. However, Yugi won't give up, as he is convinced he can win the duel and save Marik from the Shadow Realm. He also has the Egyptian God Slime to worry about. As Marik pulls out more a more tricks, Yugi's chance of winning seems to be slimming.
The Final Face Off (5)
Odion tries to get threw to the good side of Marik but to no avail. After shedding more light on the Ishtar's past, Yugi and Marik continue the duel to decide the fate of the world. With the duel nearing the climax and the fate of the world only minutes away, Yugi activates his ultimate trump card, Ragnarok.
One for the Road
Determined to destroy the final remaining symbol of their foster-father's evil, Kaiba and Mokuba activate Kaiba Corp Island's self-destruct system. However as Kaiba Craft 3 prepares for take off the duelists are shocked to hear that the engine is still damaged from the escape from Noah's Virtual Fortress. With only a few minutes remaining until the island explodes, a desperate search for another means of escape begins.
Looking Back and Moving Ahead
On her last day in Domino, Serenity meets Tea and asks if she will show her around the city before she leaves. As the two tour the town, they both remember all of the events, both good and bad, that happened during the Battle City tournament and Serenity is as surprised as Tea first was when she learns about Yami's past as an Egyptian Pharaoh. As the day draws to a close, Serenity thanks Tea for a good day and departs, leaving Tea free to make her way to meet Yami.
A New Evil (1)
Yugi and his friends go to the tablet at the museum to use the Egyptian God Cards to unlock Yami's secrets. However, when Yami activates the cards, their powers are drained and Duel Monsters suddenly start to appear throughout Japan. Kaiba and his company renounce that this is their blame, and to make matters worse, the God Cards are stolen by mysterious bikers. A robed individual challenges the Pharoah, and uses the Seal of Orichalcos, a strange mystical card that allows him to summon Obelisk without being struck down by lightning.
A New Evil (2)
The seal of Orichalcos is still in effect and it is hindering Yugi each turn. However, he finds a way to destroy his opponents' "endless" ranks of monsters, and has Dark Magician Girl eradicate the rest of his life points. The man's soul is sealed in Orichalcos as a result. The strange bikers (Rafael, Valon, and Alister) steal the God cards, but give back Rex and Weevil's soul cards. Later that day, Yugi and his friends meet Rebecca again, who tells them that her grandfather wants to see them about something...
Legend of the Dragons
After their first encounter with the new evil, Yugi and the others are concerned to learn from Professor Hawkins that their appearance could have some connection to the destruction of the ancient civilization, Atlantis. With so many thoughts running through his mind, Yugi's sleep is restless as he is drawn to a world of Duel Monsters where he is told of the three Legendary Dragons and unseals the first of them, Timaeus.
The Creator Returns
Yugi and his friends get a important key card and a tape from an alarmed Pegasus. Pegasus informs Yugi that the card is very important, and if he is captured, that Yugi is his only hope to save the reputation of Duel Monsters. Dartz himself is plotting to take Pegasus; Mai ends up dueling him and defeating him. Kaiba, meanwhile, is taking blame for all of the monster sightings. Also, he is alarmed of Pegasus seizing stocks of his company. To end Pegasus's plot, he sets out to Duelist Kingdom to duel him.
Deja Duel! (1)
Kaiba has finally arrived at the Duelist Kingdom to confront Pegasus about what he knows of the Duel Monsters coming to life, and why he has suddenly bought the Kaiba Corp. stock. Pegasus however, wants to duel Kaiba, and Kaiba obliges. The duel is soon underway, and though Pegasus plays his infamous "Toon World" card, Kaiba still does well and is able to destroy Toon World. However, Kaiba realizes that something is wrong. The man dueling him is only mimicking Pegasus's past moves... So "Pegasus" reveals his true identity... he is in fact Alister, ready to take revenge against Kaiba! And he plays the Seal of Orichalcos!
Deja Duel! (2)
Alister's Gorlag seems to be unstoppable, and Kaiba must resort to defensive tactics in his dueling strategy. Alister tells Kaiba how Gozaburo was responsible for the death of his brother, Mikey, during a war between his town and Kaiba Corporation. Even though Kaiba and Mokuba aren't to blame, Alister finds them as the culprits. If Kaiba doesn't defeat Alister, his soul will be captured. Meanwhile, Yugi and co. try to reach Industrial Illusions via the California desert. However, their driver randomly stops and makes a run for it, leaving them stranded.
An Unexpected Enemy
Yugi and the gang get ambushed by bikers at the gas station. Right as they're about to attack, someone rushes in to save them. When Joey sees the Harpy Lady card, he knows the person was Mai. Meanwhile, Kaiba and Mokuba leave Duelist Kingdom and decide to pay a visit to Pegasus at the Industrial Illusion headquarters. At the same time, Duke meets up with Weevil and Rex, who trick him into taking them to Industrial Illusion. With everyone heading to the same destination, Yugi and co. arrive, only to get locked inside. Suddenly Mai appears and reveals that she has taken Pegasus's soul. Everyone is surprised, and then they see Rafael and Valon up on a balcony. Mai decides to duel with Joey, and activates The Seal of Orichalcos. Confused, Joey tries to snap Mai out of it, but she just keeps dueling.
My Freaky Valentine (1)
To Joey's dismay, he is unable to get through to Mai, who went to Dartz to escape her loneliness. With the Orichalcos controlling her, she is now dueling ruthlessly. That's bad news for Joey, especially with Mai's Harpie Phoenix and Sparrow Formation cards. Joey can only defend himself, but will he crack under the pressure of dueling one of his brainwashed friends?
My Freaky Valentine (2)
As the duel continues, Joey finally gets serious by summoning Fiend Megacyber to the field and destroying one of Mai's Harpies, sending her Life Points down to 3600. At that point, Mai remembers about when she met Dartz, and agreed to give up her weak side in order to gain the powers of Orichalcos. Still determined to win, Mai continues her assault by summoning Harpy’s Pet Dragon. Turn after turn, Joey fights her off but doesn't seem to be making any progress and is just holding off his eventual defeat. Meanwhile, Duke, Weevil, and Rex arrive at Industrial Illusions, and Duke runs off to try to unlock the gates around the building. Back to the duel, Joey is trapped into a corner again. But when he draws again, his deck glows, and he and Yami Yugi are taken to the Dominion of the Beasts, where the last Dragon, Hermos, is waiting to be unsealed. Joey pulls the sword, and he and Yugi are transported back to the duel. Although confused about what just happened, Joey draws the Claw of Hermos.
My Freaky Valentine (3)
Although everyone is confused about Joey getting Hermos, he still wants to play it, hoping to somehow get his and Mai's Life Points down to 0 at the same time. Meanwhile, Duke arrives at main computer for Industrial Illusions and tries to hack into the security program. Joey plays Hermos in combination with Time Wizard to create a small hammer thingy. Joey uses it, and succeeds in getting all of Mai's monsters off the field, then directly attacks her, sending her LPs down to 1400. Mai is afraid that she's going to lose, but suddenly Harpy's Pet Dragon reappears because of the hammer thingy's effect. Mai tries to attack, but Joey activates Skull Dice to prevent her attack. Mai panics, but suddenly Valon jumps down from the balcony and uses his Orichalcos shard to break the seal and stop the duel. Rafael scolds him, and then vows to make up for it by taking the Pharaoh's soul. He then uses his Orichalcos shard to make Mai, Valon, and himself disappear. At that moment, Duke manages to unlock the doors, and Kaiba and Mokuba, who have just arrived, walk in through the door. They reunite, and decide to use Yugi's key card to find Pegasus. They go to a room that Duke couldn't unlock with the computer, and Yugi uses his key card to unlock the door. Inside, they find a hologram of Pegasus, who proceeds to tell them about Dartz, who is trying to resurrect the Great Leviathan, and monster that existed 10,000 years ago. Kaiba refuses to believe it, and comes to the conclusion that this is all some ruse to help Pegasus take control of Kaiba Corporation. But Yugi tells him that it's true, and the Legendary Dragon cards prove it. Yugi takes out his Eye of Timaeus, Joey takes out his Claw of Hermos, and Kaiba takes out his Fang of Critias. The cards start glowing...
The Challenge
Although Yugi and Joey are determined to defeat Dartz using the Legendary Dragon cards, Kaiba is less than enthusiastic about the idea. He still refuses to believe it and walks off with Mokuba. The others decide to go to Professor Hawkins's house to try to find some clues, but Kaiba and Mokuba have already flown off in their Blue Eyes jet, so they have to go in Duke's car, bringing Rex and Weevil along in the trunk. Meanwhile, Mai reprimands Valon for stopping the duel, claiming that she would have beaten Joey if he hadn't interfered. Rafael tells Mai that she would have lost because Joey had his Hermos card. Mai rides off angrily on Valon's motorcycle, and Rafael decides it's time to target the Pharaoh. Meanwhile at Professor Hawkins's place, while Rebecca is coming home from the grocery store, Hawkins is kidnapped by Dartz's men and his lab is destroyed. Rebecca finds a card with a note written on it at the scene. Yugi and the others arrive to see the charred mess. As everyone discusses the incident in Rebecca's RV, Yugi asks Rebecca to give him the necklace with the Orichalcos shard in it. Later, while the others are cooking supper, Rebecca gives Yugi the note, which is from Rafael, telling him to go to Death Valley if he wants Professor Hawkins back. Yugi decides to go alone, late at night, he wakes up, puts on his Duel Disk, and takes Rebecca's horse out to meet with Rafael. Meanwhile, Weevil and Rex, who had heard Yugi and Rebecca's conversation earlier, have already set out to Death Valley to see Yugi's duel. Later, Joey wakes up, and everyone finds out that Yugi is missing. Joey runs out to try to chase him, and sees Professor Hawkins walking back. So with Professor Hawkins safe and sound back in the RV, Yugi is walking right into Rafael's trap...
Fate of the Pharaoh (1)
Yami arrives to duel Rafael, who surprises Yami by telling him that he was an evil pharoah and that Dartz wishes to save the world. Rafael tells Yugi of his past and how he was abandoned on a desert island, having only the Guardian cards as company. Rafael believes that his bond with his cards will help him unveil the Pharaoh as pure evil.
Fate of the Pharaoh (2)
As Rafael's Guardian Grarl looms over Yami's life points, Yami tries to figure out how to make a good strategy. Rafael's constant use of spells to support his Guardians makes him tough to beat. When Rafael has only the Seal of Orichalcos and Exchange in his hand, he lures Yami by switching. Yami has no other choice, as it comes down to it, but to play the Seal of Orichalcos...
Fate of the Pharaoh (3)
Because Yami Yugi activated The Seal of Orichalcos, his Timaeus card disappears because it can't mix with the power of Orichalcos. Angry, Yami Yugi summons many monsters to the field and is able to destroy Rafael's Guardian Grarl, meaning his Purity of the Cemetery card is destroyed. But Rafael plays Monster Rebirth, sending his Grarl card into the deck, proving that Rafael still doesn't want any of his monsters in the graveyard. Meanwhile, from some dark place, Yugi wakes up to see that his other self really did activate the Seal and started becoming evil. When Joey, Tristan, and Duke arrive outside the duel arena, Rex explains to them that Yugi got the Orichalcos card and played it, which Joey can't believe. Back to the duel, Rafael activates Swords of Revealing Light, stopping Yami Yugi's monsters from attacking for 3 turns. Yami Yugi shrugs it off and plays Catapult Turtle, which he uses to catapult his monsters at Rafael's life points. Although Rafael still has 100 life points left after the bombardment, he's determined to win. Joey can't believe that Yugi would act like that and sacrifice his monsters one by one just to win. Rafael announces that the darkness of Yami Yugi's heart has been proven because of what he's done to the monsters. He plays Guardian Eatos, which is able to gain the attack points of all the monsters in the opponent's graveyard. As Yami Yugi looks up at all the monsters he's destroyed, he tries to ask for forgiveness, but it's too late. They're absorbed by Eatos, bringing its attack points up to 10000. Eatos attacks Yami Yugi's Kuribabylon and Catapult Turtle, bringing Yami Yugi's life points down to 0. However as the Seal closes in on him, Yugi appears and pushes him out of the way, claiming that he's letting the Seal take him instead. Yami Yugi faints to the ground, while Alister appears in an helicopter to pick Rafael up. Rafael throws Yugi's limp body down to Joey and the others and the helicopter flies off. Weevil and Rex decide to follow them. When Yami Yugi wakes up, he explains that Yugi was captured by the Seal in place of his.
Trial by Stone
Weevil and Rex jump on the helicopter that Rafael and Alister are on, and Alister has no choice but to continue flying with Weevil and Rex. Meanwhile, Yami Yugi and the others return to where Tea and Rebecca are waiting. They're happy to see Yugi back, but not after they find out that Yami Yugi lost and Yugi's soul was taken. Rebecca blames Yami Yugi for everything, and he agrees with her. Joey tries to snap him out of it and tells him if he's going to save Yugi he can't just stand there moping. Meanwhile, at Dartz's headquarters, Rafael, Alister, Weevil, and Rex have arrived and walk into the main meeting room. Dartz greets them, Valon appears and tells them they got the wrong soul. Rafael is amazed, but vows to reclaim the Pharaoh's soul later. Then, Weevil and Rex jump in and say they want to join them. Dartz is reluctant at first, but decides to test them by placing two Orichalcos shards in front of them. If they can grab them, they are worthy to wield the power of Orichalcos. But if they can't their souls will be taken. They both accept the challenge, and eventually are able to grab the shards, much to the surprise of Rafael, Valon, and Alister. Weevil and Rex are led to a room where all the cards ever made except the God Cards are held and vow to steal Yami Yugi's and Joey's souls for Dartz. Meanwhile, back in Rebecca's RV, everyone discusses what happened. Rebecca tells them they can't go to the ruins of Atlantis for info anymore because they've disappeared. When Professor Hawkins appears, he tells them they can still find some information on Atlantis and Dartz by looking at some of the ruins data which are stored in a museum in Florida. Meanwhile, at Kaiba Corporation headquarters, Kaiba is still trying to find a link between Pegasus and what's been happening to his company. Mokuba still thinks Alister had something to do with it, and Kaiba begins to agree. Just then, Joey calls and tells him that they need him to give them a ride to Florida, and accidentally tells Kaiba that Yugi lost his soul. Kaiba is outraged that Yugi lost a duel and slams the phone down without listening to another word. So everyone else decides to take a train to an airport that they can get to Florida with. Joey decides that Duke should stay and look after the Professor, and everyone sets out for the train station.
On the Wrong Track (1)
As everyone boards the train, Yami Yugi remembers how angry Rebecca was because she could not go with them. Afterwards, Yami Yugi, Tea, Joey, and Tristan set out on the train with Duke waving goodbye. During the ride, Tea tries to cheer Yami Yugi up, but he just says "Sorry" and walks away. In the space between the cars, Yami Yugi just thinks about how he lost Yugi and everything he could have done to prevent it. Back in the passenger car, Tristan notices that everyone else who was just on the car has disappeared. The three of them go searching through the train, but don't find any people. When the find Yami Yugi, they tell him about the situation, and he runs off. As he crosses over to another car, the cable connecting them breaks loose and the car that Tea, Joey, and Tristan are on begins slowing down. Tea quickly jumps to the car Yami Yugi is in, meaning she and Yami Yugi are on the still-moving train and Joey and Tristan are on the slowing car following it. Joey's car comes to a complete stop. When they get out, they're followed by Rex Raptor, who claims it's time for him to get revenge. Back on the train, Yami Yugi tries to stop the train by getting on the roof, but when he gets there, he sees Weevil Underwood waiting for him. He challenges Yami Yugi to a duel, promising him that he'll tell him where Yugi is if he wins. And back at the stopped train cars, Joey reluctantly accepts Rex's challenge. As the two simultaneous duels begin, both Weevil and Rex play the Seal of Orichalcos, and each of them start out their duel in the lead. Weevil ends up infecting Yami Yugi's Celtic Guardian with a virus that will eventually turn him into the monster Poison Butterfly, and then plays Insect Barrier so it won't be able to attack once its born, while Rex summons 3 monsters to the field in his first turn due to their special abilities. All the while, Dartz is watching the duel from afar, because no matter what happens, he'll gain two souls at the end of these duels.
On the Wrong Track (2)
As the two duels continue, Weevil and Rex reveal how their famous status as Regional Champion and Regional Runner-up plummeted when they were knocked out of Duelist Kingdom at such an early stage. However, while Weevil seems to be turning the tides in his favor with the help of an old strategy, Joey also appears to be pulling ahead thanks to the help of an old friend. Yugi and Joey both try to figure out ways to stop these two but both Rex and Weevil have their minds set on winning! However, with such high stakes on the line victory could still go to any two of the four duelists.
On the Wrong Track (3)
With their duels still unresolved, both Yami Yugi and Joey draw their Legendary Dragon cards at similar times and both summon them to the field. However, while Joey successfully combines Hermos with his Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Timaeus vanishes as Yami Yugi summons it leaving him stranded with his main hope for victory gone. Nonetheless, Yami Yugi is determined to defeat Weevil and find out where Yugi's soul is being kept, but the pressure of the guilt residing within him seems to be growing stronger by the minute. Joey is able to defeat Rex easily with Hermos' power, but things look bad for Yami Yugi. He eventually wins using his Berzerker Soul magic card, but he's still no closer to finding Yugi's soul. At that moment, the train derails, and Yami Yugi, Tea, and Weevil's soulless body go plummeting into a ravine.
Self Destruction
As the train to Florida crashes, Dartz senses that the Pharaoh is being shielded from him and sends Rafael to find him. Meanwhile, Yami Yugi and Téa wake up to find themselves being cared for by a small girl, Chris, and her wolf friend Sky. Meeting up with Chris's grandfather, Ironheart, Yami Yugi is lead to an ancient site where he will hopefully be able to forgive himself for what happened to Yugi. However as the Pharaoh and Yugi meet face to face, the reunion does not look set to be a happy one. Yugi insists on dueling against his other self, which confuses Yami Yugi. He's even more confused after Yugi plays the Seal of Orichalcos soon after the duel begins! Yugi wants Yami Yugi to pay for what he did by having his soul sealed up too. He then uses the same strategy used by Yami Yugi in his duel against Rafael by using Catapult Turtle to fire monsters, but the Pharaoh activates Divine Wind, reflecting the attack back at Yugi. But even as he disappears, Yugi smiles, because he knows that Yami Yugi was able to defeat the darkness of his heart.
Reliving the Past
After his confrontation with Yugi, Yami Yugi is given little time to recover as Rafael arrives and informs Dartz. Dartz uses Rafael's Orichalcos shard to unseal an Orichalcos Soldier from its resting place. As a vicious battle begins, Yami Yugi gets a vision of the past, in which hundreds of Orichalcos Soldiers are fighting against an army of Duel Monsters, with Ironheart, Chris, and Skye at its front. Back in the current time, the Orichalcos Soldier summons an Orichalcos Gigas to attack the Pharaoh. But the spirits of the Duel Monsters who fought there surround Yami Yugi and protect him. Yami Yugi uses his cards to fight the Orichalcos Gigas off, but it simply revives each time it's destroyed, and it gains strength each time it revives. As things begin to look hopeless for the Pharaoh, Ironheart decides that it's time to return Timaeus to him and runs down into the battlefield. Yami Yugi has another vision of the past, in which Timaeus appears and destroys the entire army of Orichalcos Soldiers in a single breath. But the Great Leviathan still stands in its way, and as Timaeus flies towards it, Dartz, who is standing on the Great Leviathan, summons his Sword of Kings to attack Timaeus. Timaeus falls to the ground, and the Great Leviathan and Timaeus attack each other at the same time. Yami Yugi snaps out of his vision, just in time to dodge one of Orichalcos Gigas's attacks. As Ironheart enters the field, Dartz senses him and strikes him with lightning. As Chris and Skye run down to him, he tells Chris to give Timaeus to the Pharaoh and disappears. Chris and Skye ride towards the Pharaoh, but Dartz strikes them with lightning too. Chris manages to give Yami Yugi Timaeus before she disappears. The Pharaoh summons Timaeus and the Dark Magician Girl to create Dark Magician Girl The Dragon Knight. He attacks and destroys the Orichalcos Gigas and Orichalcos Soldier once and for all.
Deck of Armor
At Dartz's headquarters, Mai begins to grow tired of taking orders from Dartz and sets out on her own, determined to find and defeat Joey. As Valon heads off after her, the two eventually meet up and Valon explains to Mai that he cares for her and would do anything to make her happy. While Mai seems unimpressed by the announcement, the two have little time to discuss things further when Rebecca and Duke arrive, challenging Valon to a 2 vs. 1 duel in the hopes of winning back Yugi's soul. Valon agrees to the duel only because he wants to show off his dueling skills to Mai. As they duel, Valon seems to play nothing but Armor monsters with zero attack strength. Rebecca and Duke are confused, but continue to duel, only to have their life points wiped out three turns into the duel by Valon's Armored Gravitation card. Meanwhile, Kaiba and Mokuba are flying to Florida on KC1 as an aurora appears in the sky again...
Flight of Fear (1)
The pilot of the plane turns out to be Alister, who, after trapping him on his own plane, forces Kaiba into a rematch. But as Alister uses his Soldier Deck and activates The Seal of Orichalcos, the auto pilot system fails and sends the plane on a crash course. Meanwhile, Alister uses the power of Orichalcos to show Kaiba visions of the consequences of the weapons provided by the old Kaiba Corp. Kaiba refuses to be affected by Alister's tricks, and is able to destroy his army of Tank monsters. However, with the plane about to crash into a mountain and Alister claiming to have a perfect strategy, is there any way Kaiba can come out of this duel alive?
Flight of Fear (2)
The duel between Kaiba and Alister continues, and Alister summons the powerful Air Fortress Ziggurat, a card based of his brother Mikey's Dynadude action figure and resistant to both magic and trap cards. At the same time, Mokuba manages to navigate the plane above the mountain with some help from Roland and sets the auto pilot back on. Backed into a corner, Kaiba manages to summon his Blue Eyes White Dragon and destroy Alister's Ziggurat. Alister's still confident, because the plane will crash soon, causing the Orichalcos to absorb the souls of Kaiba, Alister, and Mokuba at the same time. Kaiba convinces Alister to give him one more turn to save his brother, and draws the Fang of Critias card, and creates the Blue Eyes Tyrant Dragon with it, wiping out Alister's life points. Before he loses his soul, Alister is able to see the wrong in what he was doing. With some help from the Three Legendary Dragons, Kaiba manages to land the plane safely, right in front of Yami Yugi, Tea, Joey, and Tristan. However, as soon as they meet, Roland appears with news that someone has completely taken over Kaiba Corporation...
Paradise Found
As everyone flies off in Kaiba's chopper, they discuss Kaiba Corporation’s takeover. However, Kaiba was able to get a group to Florida early, and has all of the information on the ruins of Atlantis on his computer. After sending the images to Professor Hawkins, the professor says that the images are too low-quality to view properly. So after meeting up with Rebecca, Duke, and the professor, Yami Yugi and Kaiba head to Kaiba Corp's main HQ to analyze the data. Meanwhile, Dartz begins the second phase of his plan, and summons Orichalcos Soldiers all over the world. As Yami Yugi and Kaiba enter the KC building, they're greeted by an army of monsters. They eventually make it to the central computer and clean up the images of the ruins. Professor Hawkins is able to translate the data, and Kaiba recognizes the marks on the images as the symbol of Paradius, a huge corporation led by Dartz. Suddenly, the computer explodes and Dartz appears to taunt the Pharaoh and Kaiba. Meanwhile, Rebecca is able to get a map as to where Paradius's HQ is and Joey runs off to find it. What he doesn't know is that Valon is hot on his trail...
Fighting for a Friend (1)
Orichalcos Soldiers start appearing all over the world taking people’s souls. Yami Yugi and the others become more determined to defeat Dartz before he can destroy the world. But Joey was separated from the group when he followed Valon off to duel with him, and with Mai also hot on their trails. When their duel begins, Joey is surprised that Valon plays nothing but Armor monsters with 0 attack strength, but is also surprised when Valon uses his Big Bang Blow's special ability to destroy his monsters. Valon explains that he only attacks during his duels, and he has been that way all his life. They continue their duel.
Fighting for a Friend (2)
As Joey and Valon's duel continues, Yami Yugi and the others are intercepted by a bunch of Orichalcos Soldiers. Timaeus and Critias easily defeat them, and after the battle, Kaiba and Mokuba take their leave. Kaiba does hint at how to find Joey, and Rebecca begins hacking into KaibaCorp's mainframe so they can find Joey. Back at the duel, Valon finally plays The Seal of Orichalcos, along with the magic card Full Armor Gravitation, which helps him build another suit of armor. With each Armor monster having its own unique special ability, the duel looks grim for Joey. However, he manages to draw the Claw of Hermos.
Fighting for a Friend (3)
Rebecca finally pinpoints Joey's location, and Yami Yugi, Tea, and Tristan run off to find him. At the duel, Joey is able to destroy Valon's entire suit of armor by combining his Claw of Hermos and his Rocket Warrior into Rocket Hermos Cannon. However Valon turns the tide again by cloning the Rocket Hermos Cannon with his Data Brain card and using it on Joey. Valon attacks Joey again, only to activate his trap card and summon the trap monster Aura Armor to Joey's field. Joey then activates Red Eyes Transmigration to turn his Aura Armor into a Lord of the Red armor card giving him his own suit of armor. With Valon shaking and amazed of Joey's strength, Mai finally arrives. Joey uses his Lord of the Red's special ability to destroy all of Valon's armor monsters again, which Valon counters by breaking up Joey's Lord of the Red into Red Eyes Black Dragon and Aura Armor. It is all going to come down to one last turn...
Fighting for a Friend (4)
Valon activates Phoenix Gravitation, allowing him to revive 4 armor monsters to the field and equip them. Valon's victory seems ensured, but Joey turns the tables again, brings back Hermos, and combines it with Valon's Big Bang Blow to form Big Bang Dragon Blow. The two armored duelists attack each other, and the outcome looks like a draw. But because of Big Bang Dragon Blow's special ability, Joey destroys all of Valon's armor monsters and reduces his LPs down to 0. Content with his defeat, Valon accepts his punishment. His last words are telling Joey to save Mai. With that, his soul is taken. Mai kneels next to his body and cries, but eventually returns to her evil self again and says he deserved it. Joey denies it and says Valon dueled like a true duelist. He challenges Mai to a duel, saying that is the only way he'll be able to understand her. Meanwhile, Yami Yugi, Tea, and Tristan are still having no luck finding Joey, and Kaiba and Mokuba are ambushed by Orichalcos Soldiers again. As Joey and Mai's duel begins, Mai starts out with her usual Harpy combo. Joey realizes how damaged he is from his duel with Valon. He is trembling and can barely see straight. However, Joey still duels, not holding anything back like he did in his last duel with Mai. But things for him worsen as Mai plays The Seal of Orichalcos. In addition, without Valon to stop the duel this time, one of their souls will be taken by the duel's end.
Fighting for a Friend (5)
As Yami Yugi, Tea, and Tristan continue searching and Kaiba and Mokuba fight off swarms of Orichalcos Soldiers, the duel between Joey and Mai continues. Joey again tries to convince Mai that she should stop, but it does not work. The duel continues, and Mai continues to have the upper hand. Joey finally draws his Claw of Hermos and uses it to create the Red Eyes Black Dragon sword. Victory seems in his hand, but Mai makes quick work of his sword with her Harpy's Feather Duster. Things look hopeless for Joey as Mai begins her final assault. She is ready to attack his Life Points and end the duel, but she stops. She begins to remember all the good times she and Joey had and all the times Joey protected her from danger. But at that moment, Joey begins to collapse. Mai rushes towards him, but it's too late. As the seal closes in around them, Joey tells Mai that he's glad her soul is safe and pushes her out. As the Seal takes Joey's soul, Mai screams and her Orichalcos shard shatters. Dartz senses it, but doesn't care since he now has Joey's soul. Mai, confused and angry, takes Joey's Hermos card and rushes to Paradius to confront Dartz. Meanwhile, Yami Yugi, Tea, and Tristan find Joey's lifeless body lying on the ground...
Grappling with a Guardian (1)
Everyone is upset that Joey has lost his soul. Angered, Yami Yugi rushes off to find and duel Dartz to settle things finally. As he reaches Paradius, the elevator doors open, and Mai's soulless body falls out. Yami Yugi goes up the elevator to the roof, where he finds Rafael waiting. Rafael gives Yami Yugi the Claw of Hermos card and explains that he defeated Mai and took her soul. Rafael is determined to help Dartz in his goal no matter what. He explains that the Great Leviathan only needs one more strong soul to revive. Meanwhile, Tea and Tristan meet up with Kaiba and Mokuba, and they agree to find Yami Yugi together. Meanwhile, the rematch between Yami Yugi and Rafael finally begins. Rafael begins with the same strategy he used in his last duel by playing several Guardian monsters. He manages to destroy some of Yami Yugi's monsters, but Yami Yugi can't destroy any of Rafael's monsters because of his conviction to keep his monsters out of the graveyard no matter what. But even so, he shocks even Yami Yugi when he announces that he's going to activate the Seal of Orichalcos. As Tea, Tristan, Kaiba, Mokuba, and Joey's soulless body arrive at the roof of Paradius, they see Rafael activate the Seal and grin.
Grappling with a Guardian (2)
With Rafael having played the Seal of Orichalcos and all of his guardian monsters getting power boosts, things don't look good for Yami Yugi. But things worsen as Rafael summons Guardian Eatos, the monster that defeated him in their last duel. But Yami Yugi turns the tables by summoning Timaeus and fusing him with the Dark Magician to form Amulet Dragon. Using his new monster, he destroys Guardian Eatos. However, a new Guardian takes its place! Rafael explains that when Eatos is sent to the graveyard, a new monster, Guardian Dreadscythe, will appear in its place. Rafael then shocks everyone by sacrificing all of his Guardian monsters in order to power up Dreadscythe. His mind has been completely clouded by the Orichalcos. He destroys Amulet Dragon and pushes Yami Yugi into a corner. Yami Yugi decides that he must free Rafael from the darkness, and plays the magic card Underworld Circle. Darkness covers the field, and now Tristan, Tea, Kaiba, and Mokuba cannot see the duel...
Grappling with a Guardian (3)
Yami Yugi and Rafael begin to experience visions of Rafael's past thanks to Yami Yugi's Underworld Circle card. The vision shows Rafael and Dartz meeting in a cemetery. Dartz told Rafael to start digging in one of the graves. When he does, he finds a Duel Disk. Guardian Eatos appears, but Dartz tells Rafael to ignore it. Rafael draws and plays The Seal of Orichalcos, and because of that, Eatos disappears and is replaced with Guardian Dreadscythe. Yami Yugi, watching this, believes that Dreadscythe is Rafael's darkness, and if he can destroy Dreadscythe, he can save Rafael. But suddenly, the present Rafael reveals that Dreadscythe can't be destroyed! As long as Rafael has cards in his hand to sacrifice, Guardian Dreadscythe won't leave the field. The duel continues, and because of the Underworld Circle card, Yami Yugi can summon monsters from his graveyard to the field on both his and his opponent's turn. Yami Yugi manages to bring back Timaeus and combines it with his Dark Magician Girl, but that's not enough to bring down Dreadscythe. Rafael destroys Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight easily. But suddenly, a light of hope. Yami Yugi plays Monster Reborn to bring Guardian Eatos back from the grave. He then plays Joey's Claw of Hermos and combines it with his Queen's Knight to form Goddess Bow. Using its special ability, Yami Yugi is able to destroy Dreadscythe for good. With Rafael's mind no longer clouded by Dreadscythe, he uses the Soul Charge magic card to bring back all his guardian monsters. But because he must pay 500 life points for each monster and he only has 1200 life points left, his life points decrease to 0 and he loses the duel. But as the Seal of Orichalcos closes around him, Rafael has a vision of his family. The Orichalcos shard around his neck shatters and the Seal disappears without taking his soul. Everyone is confused, but Yami Yugi explains that the Seal of Orichalcos is powered by the darkness in one's heart, but if that heart has no darkness, the Seal can't be used. In other words, because of Rafael's final vision of his family and his act of love to his Guardian monsters, all the darkness in his heart was extinguished and the Seal was destroyed. But there's no time to celebrate, because a sudden earthquake begins...
A Duel with Dartz (1)
As Paradius HQ collapses under them, Roland plays the unlikely hero role as he appears in his helicopter and prepares to take everyone away. However, Rafael, still weak from his duel, is too slow to make it and with his last ounce of strength, throws Yami Yugi to where the others are waiting and gives him a map to where Dartz is. As Paradius collapses and Rafael appears to be dead, our heroes are intercepted by some U.S. Air Force men who explain their situation to Yami Yugi and Kaiba. They refuel their helicopter and everyone flies to Dartz's island for the final confrontation. Dartz is happy to see them, and explains his plan to them. He invites both Yami Yugi and Kaiba to duel him at the same time. Meanwhile, Rafael, having miraculously survived, rescues Mai's body and puts her and Valon's body in a Jeep and promises to save them. Back to the duel, Yami Yugi and Kaiba manage to summon strong monsters, but Dartz summons the Seal of Orichalcos, Orichalcos Gigas, and Orichalcos Kyutora. But Kaiba has a trump card as he summons Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, and Yami Yugi summons Master of Dragon Soldier. The powerful monster attacks, but it appears to be useless. Yami Yugi and Kaiba are then showed a vision of Atlantis 10,000 years ago...
A Duel with Dartz (2)
Before the duel continues, Dartz shows them what happened in ancient Atlantis. He explains how the Orichalcos appeared and corrupted the hearts of the humans and turned people into monsters, including his own wife, Iona. Dartz was shown the truth, however, when he encountered an Orichalcos stone and it explained everything to him and gave him the power of the Great Leviathan. His father, Ironheart, and daughter, Chris, tried to stop him by gaining the help of the monsters from the Dominion of the Beasts, but neither side was victorious. Dartz wants to finish the battle he began 10,000 years ago, and explains that due to his Orichalcos Kyutora's ability, his Life Points are safe from Yami Yugi and Kaiba's last attack. He then plays Orichalcos Deuteros, the second level of the Seal. As the duel progresses, things look dim for Yami Yugi and Kaiba, especially when Dartz plays his Mirror Knight Calling card which summons four Mirror Knights to the field. Kaiba destroys Mirror Knight Calling with his Ring of Destruction card, taking the armor off revealing them to be the souls of Yugi, Joey, Mai, and Pegasus. With Yami Yugi playing against the souls of his friends, will he be able to win?
A Duel with Dartz (3)
As the duel continues, Yami Yugi and Kaiba are shocked to see Yugi, Joey, Mai, and Pegasus as the Mirror Knights. While Kaiba refuses to let it affect him, Yami Yugi no longer has the will to attack. Kaiba attempts to destroy the Mirror Knights, but the knights' friendship gets in his way and defend each other. Dartz also summons Orichalcos Malevolence to cause trouble for Kaiba and Yami Yugi. Kaiba is angry that Yami Yugi won't do anything, but Yami Yugi can't bring himself to attack his friends. The duel is put on hold, however, when Rafael appears and attempts to get Dartz to stop. Dartz just laughs and explains to Rafael that he'll never get rid of his darkness. He tells everyone about how he got Rafael, Valon, and Alister to be his pawns. He posed as Gozaburo Kaiba and made Alister believe that it was Kaiba Corporation’s fault that his brother was gone. He framed Valon for his first ever crime. He used his powers to sink the ship that Rafael and his family were on the day he was separated from them. Rafael, enraged, tries to attack Dartz, but because of that, darkness re-enters his heart and the Seal of Orichalcos appears on his forehead again. The Seal takes his soul, but there's no time for Yami Yugi and Kaiba to react, because at that moment, Dartz activates the third Seal of Orichalcos, Orichalcos Tritos.
A Duel with Dartz (4)
Because of Orichalcos Tritos, magic and trap cards won't affect Dartz's monsters. Yami Yugi's out of monsters, so Dartz uses his 4 Mirror Knights to attack him. But as Mirror Knight Pegasus attacks him, he calls out to him and tells him to play the card he gave him earlier. It's getting down to the wire, and Kaiba knows that if he can't think of something soon, he'll lose. With perfect timing, he draws and plays the Fang of Critias card. He combines it with Yami Yugi's Mirror Force and creates Mirror Force Dragon. He attacks Mirror Knight Pegasus and uses the energy reflected by Pegasus's shield to attack all 4 Mirror Knights thanks to Mirror Force Dragon's special ability, much to Yami Yugi' dismay. This means Orichalcos Kyutora is also destroyed, but not before absorbing the damage caused by the attack. But when Orichalcos Kyutora is destroyed, it is replaced by Orichalcos Shunoros, whose attack points are determined by the amount of damage it absorbs as Orichalcos Kyutora. It also gains two arms, Orichalcos Dexia and Orichalcos Aristeros, which act as Shunoros's sword and shield. Dartz forces Mirror Force Dragon to battle with Shunoros, thus wiping out Kaiba's remaining Life Points. The Seal takes Kaiba's soul and Dartz knocks Tea, Tristan, and Mokuba unconscious, leaving him alone with the Pharaoh. He tells him about his past and how when Dartz saw him 5000 years ago, he knew that he could use that soul to revive the Great Leviathan. He insists that Yami Yugi is evil and that he will pay for his crimes with his soul...
A Duel with Dartz (5)
As Dartz and Yami Yugi talk, Joey wakes up in the soul-prison world. He, Yugi, and Pegasus talk about the chances of Yami Yugi defeating Dartz, and Pegasus says that he can win with the card he gave him. The card has the power to break the seal on the Legendary Dragons and turn them human. Back at the duel, Dartz succeeds in breaking Yami Yugi's spirit. Dartz has 20,000 life points and three invincible monsters on his field. Dartz tries to convince Yami Yugi that he'll do much more for his friends by surrendering and going to where they are than attempting to draw the duel out longer. Yami Yugi prepares to surrender, but a teardrop hits the Millennium Puzzle and the Seal of Orichalcos closing in all around him is repelled. Dartz is confused, and Yami Yugi says that he was able to look into his heart and knows that all his friends are with him. He draws a card. It's the card Pegasus gave him, Legend of Heart. Using it, he summons the Legendary Dragons and transforms them into the Legendary Knights Timaeus, Critias, and Hermos, and they destroy all three levels of the Seal of Orichalcos. Dartz is shocked that the Seal was destroyed so easily. He attacks using Shunoros, but Yami Yugi activates Critias's special ability by bringing back a Trap Card, namely Mirror Force. Shunoros, Dexia, and Aristeros are destroyed, but another monster takes its place. By discarding all the cards in his hand and sacrificing all of his life points, he can summon the Divine Serpent with an attack force of infinity. He cannot lose the duel until Divine Serpent is destroyed. Dartz attacks and destroys Timaeus, sending Yami Yugi's life points to 0, but Yami Yugi activates Relay Soul, summoning Dark Magician Girl to the field. He cannot lose the duel until Dark Magician Girl is destroyed. Dartz plays Impact Revive, making Timaeus return to the field and giving himself a second Battle Phase. He attacks with Dark Magician Girl…
A Duel with Dartz (6)
Yami Yugi uses Hermos's special ability to escape Dartz's attack. Then he has Critias and Hermos attack Divine Serpent at the same time, and with their respective special abilities, they are able to form a loop on Divine Serpent's head creating a power even more powerful than infinity. Yami Yugi then fuses the three knights together to form the Knight of Destiny. He attacks Divine Serpent, destroying it and winning the duel. Dartz is amazed that he lost, and refuses to believe it. A portal open behind him and he disappears into it. The three knights use a rip in the barrier between the two sides to call back the souls of Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey. After a touching reunion, Roland runs in to inform everyone of some bad news. Atlantis is rising from the ocean depths, creating a large tsunami with it. The tsunami will destroy the entire American east coast within one hour. Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey decide to go to Atlantis themselves and defeat Dartz once and for all, much to the dismay of everyone else. While walking through Dartz's lair, Yugi finds the Egyptian God Cards, though they have had all their power drained. The three of them eventually find the portal that Dartz escaped through and walk into it, transporting them to Atlantis. They find Dartz, who is sacrificing his own soul to fuel his beast. It works, and the Great Leviathan revives and rises from the ocean. On the head of the creature is Dartz, who has fused himself to it. Yami Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey prepare for an all-out onslaught by summoning their most powerful monsters, but they barely leave a scratch on the enormous beast. As all looks hopeless, an aurora appears in the sky...
Rise of the Great Beast (1)
Yugi, Joey, and Kaiba begin their battle with the Great Leviathan, but their monsters' attacks have no effect. The monsters are destroyed, and the Leviathan proceeds to absorb the three into itself. However, before Yami Yugi is completely absorbed, he is able to call to all of the absorbed souls to lend him their power. With this, Yami Yugi is able to break them out, and then proceeds to revive the God Cards, Obelisk, Slifer, and Ra. He has them destroy the Great Beast, and as a result the lost souls are restored to their bodies. Joey and Kaiba then leave the area, but before Yugi can he is confronted by Dartz one final time. Yami Yugi realizes that he must finally extinguish the darkness in Dartz once and for all, or the terrible events that have occurred will happen again.
Rise of the Great Beast (2)
Merged together with the Great Leviathan, Dartz attacks Yami Yugi. Yami Yugi realizes that he overcome the Beast with the power of his friends. Yami Yugi remembers everything that has happened, and manages to make the Great Leviathan disappear for good. Yami Yugi sees Dartz on the floor, and it becomes clear that Dartz was under the control of the Orichalcos. Chris and Ironheart appear to help Dartz, and they thank him for his help. As Yugi and the Pharaoh return to the real world and leave Dartz, Ironheart, and Chris, Joey and Kaiba arrive at the helicopter and everyone is forced to leave without Yugi. Meanwhile, Weevil, Rex, Alister, Valon, and Mai all wake up since their souls have returned to their bodies. Weevil and Rex are still determined to get their revenge on Yugi and Joey, Alister still wants to find his brother, and Mai sets off to prove herself as a true duelist so she can face Joey again. Meanwhile, Yugi and Yami Yugi awaken on the shore of an island. The Legendary Dragons and the Dark Magician Girl return to their own world. Joey and the others spot Yugi on the island and the helicopter sets down to meet him. After a reunion on the shore, everyone prepares to leave. Yugi remembers that Yami Yugi must now regain his memories, but knows that he will not be alone in his final quest.
Unwanted Guest (1)
With Dartz finally defeated, Yugi and his friends are taking a well-deserved break. However, it doesn't last long, as everyone realizes that they have no way to get back to Domino. Luckily, Mokuba arrives to say that if they participate in Kaiba Corporation’s new tournament, they will get a free ride home. Yugi, Joey, and Rebecca each receive their formal invitations and Mokuba and Roland fly the gang to Kaiba Land. There, they enter the Kaiba Dome, where there is a huge dueling arena where duelists can challenge an expert duel computer. In the dome, Yugi and his friends meet Leon Wilson, a boy who has idolized Yugi since he won Duelist Kingdom, and Rick, a boy with an unbalanced deck consisting of mostly Dragon cards. Yugi gives him one of his Magic cards, and Rick decides to challenge the duel computer. But right when he does, a mysterious man hacks into Kaiba Corporation’s computer system and shuts and locks all the doors out of the main arena, and programs the duel computer to not open the doors unless someone defeats the duel computer. Rick has no chance to defeat the computer on its highest setting, so Yami steps in to duel, but can even the King of Games win with an unbalanced and weak deck?
Unwanted Guest (2)
Things do not look good for Yugi as the duel computer pounds his weak dragon cards to submission. Kaiba finds out about the situation and rushes to Kaiba land to help. Meanwhile, the hacker who set all this up is walking to his jet prepared to go to Kaiba land as well. Back at the duel, Yami Yugi draws the card he gave to Rick earlier, Heart of the Underdog. Using it, he is able to bring out the power of Rick's dragon deck and win the duel, causing the doors to open again. At about that time, Kaiba arrives and tells them where to register for the KC Grand Championship. That night, the gang goes to a hotel reception where all the other contestants are. There, they meet Leon again, and a duelist who seems to have a crush on Yugi named Vivian Wong. Also, the hacker arrives and introduces him to Kaiba as Zigfried Lloyd. Finally, all the contestants arrive and Roland announces their names to the crowd. Then he explains that whoever emerges as the winner of the tournament will gain the right to duel Yugi Muto for the title of the world's best duelist.
Let the Games Begin! (1)
As the tournament begins, the first two duels are announced as Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum and Leon Wilson vs. Dr. Richard Goat. Leon and Goat both arrive at their designated duel area on time, and so does Apdnarg, but Joey doesn't realize he has to be at his duel area, and because of that, must race against time to find Apdnarg in the Amazon Cruise zone. When Joey and the other eventually get there, the two start their duel. However, Yugi, Tea, and Tristan are too preoccupied by how much Apdnarg looks like Yugi's grandpa. Professor Hawkins appears behind them to fill them in. Solomon had called him to tell him that he would be participating in Kaiba's new tournament. As the duel begins, Apdnarg begins pummeling Joey with a very well-thought out strategy, while Joey attempts to improvise everything. Apdnarg soon plays his Stone Giant and his Ancient City, which special summons two Stone Giant tokens. In addition, he claims that the worst is yet to come...
Let the Games Begin! (2)
As the duel between Joey and Apdnarg Otum continues, Apdnarg continues playing by his strategy, playing strange moves that don't seem to make much sense, such as switching his Stone Giant tokens into defense mode and losing 1000 life points because of it. While Joey is still being confused by Apdnarg's moves, Leon Wilson wins his duel against Richard Goat. Meanwhile, outside of Kaiba Land, Weevil Underwood and Rex Raptor arrive and plan to sneak into the KC Grand Championship to face Yugi and Joey again. Back at the duel, Apdnarg reveals that everything he is done since his first move was to summon his next monster. Using the power of his Ancient cards, Apdnarg summons the Ancient Dragon. On the sidelines, Professor Hawkins explains that without the Ancient City, Stone Giant, two Stone Giant Tokens, Ancient Key, Ancient Tome, and Ancient Gate cards, you cannot summon the Ancient Dragon. He also explains that he and Solomon had a contest to see who could collect all the cards needed to summon the dragon first. Back at the duel, though the Ancient Dragon is powerful, Joey manages to destroy it with his Gilford the Lightning, but because of its special effect, it is able to revive because Ancient City was still on the field. Joey comes up with his own strategy, and manages to destroy both the Ancient Dragon and the Ancient City, leaving Apdnarg wide open for an attack. Joey directly attacks him, winning the duel. Everyone is stunned to see Joey actually winning the duel, but not as stunned as Joey when he finds out that Apdnarg is actually Solomon Muto.
Child's Play
With the first match over, Rebecca is ready for her duel with Vivian. As the two rivals face off, Rebecca proves her skill by constantly turning the tide in her favor. Meanwhile, Weevil and Rex have snuck into Kaiba Land in an attempt to join the tournament. They capture Fortune Salim and steal his outfit. Back at the duel, Rebecca sticks to her strategy and defeats Vivian. As the gang watches a new duel unfold on a television screen, they are shocked to see Fortune Salim turn out to be Weevil and Rex in disguise. However, their planned opponent, Zigfried Lloyd, isn't worried about them and offers to have them both duel him at once. While Weevil and Rex both summon high-powered monsters, Zigfried plays a single Magic Card, Ride of the Valkyries, and uses it to win the duel in a single turn!
Down in Flames (1)
Joey's next opponent is Zigfried Lloyd, the man who defeated both Weevil and Rex in a single turn, but he is still confident he will win. As four duels simultaneous start, Zigfried begins playing with Joey's head by insulting him. This seems to work, as Zigfried quickly gains the upper hand as the duel begins. Zigfried is also worried that Kaiba may be thrown off his scent with his recent inactivity, so he activates a computer virus that causes all the attractions at Kaiba Land to go haywire. As Kaiba works furiously to fix the problem, he remembers meeting a small boy with insane hacking skills at one of his father's parties once. Back at the duel, Joey turns the tables on Zigfried by attacking him directly with his Jinzo. However, that will not last for long, as Zigfried plays his magic card Ride of the Valkyries, the same card he used to defeat Weevil and Rex.
Down in Flames (2)
As the duel continues, Zigfried summons his powerful Valkyrie monsters to the field to attack Joey, but Joey manages to survive the attack. Zigfried is undaunted, and plays his three Goddess sisters, Urd, Verdande, and Skuld. He also plays Nibelung's Ring on Joey's field. He uses all these cards to slowly destroy all of Joey's monsters one by one. Joey tries to turn the tables, but things look even worse as Zigfried summons his most powerful Valkyrie monster, Valkyrie Brunhilde. Joey tries to depend on luck but each turn Zigfried takes away one monster and is able to see his cards!

In addition, to make things worse, Yugi has to put half his deck in the graveyard to keep it going, much to his distaste. Add to the fact that so long as the card does remain active, Kaiba's computer mainframe will be infected with an unstoppable virus, and you have a recipe for the ultimate disaster. Even Leon isn't happy with the arrangement, especially since it's cheating. However, Leon's pleas fall on Zigfried's deaf ears as he controls the duel from the balcony.

Then he used a magic card that sacrificed all three monsters in order to summon Royal Card Knight. By discarding a monster, each of the first five levels, the knight can destroy every card on the field, but when the smoke clears it turns out the castle is also immune to monster special abilities as well. But then Yugi points out that because he only has one card in his deck, he can't discard half of his deck to keep the castle on the field, therefore, the castle is ruined. Leon doesn’t want to finish because he felt liked he cheated but Yugi convinces him to continue, and with one card left, Yugi summons Dark Magician and uses Diffusion Wave Motion to destroy all of Leon’s monsters and wipe out his life points.
