However he can lose his composure when the Dark Game isn't under his control, this usually happens when he's not the one who starts the game.
In Dark Games, he frequently plays around with his opponents and usually lets them think they're taking the lead only to then outsmart them. He chooses to keep his existence a secret from everyone including his own host, however when he was finally found out he revealed himself with little hesitation.ĭark Yugi comes off as confident and cool-minded. On transformation to Dark Yugi, Yugi's form zoomed into a shadow of Dark Yugi, with glowing eyes and the Eye of Anubis on his forehead.ĭark Yugi shares several personality traits with Yugi, mainly his strong bond with his friends, as he always comes out to protect them whenever there's trouble. Compared to Yugi, Dark Yugi's voice is deeper and more confident, his fringe is less stiff and his eyes are red, rather than purple. Each one has a certain power, and it's believed that Yugi's puzzle isn't just flashy neckwear holding the soul of the Pharaoh it's actually an insanely effective good luck charm.Dark Yugi's appearance is more maniacal than his later appearance in the NAS anime.
The more likely explanation lies in the power of the Millennium Items.
However, it's strange to think that Yugi is the only person in the entire world that actually believes in his deck, or at least believes in it more than his opponents. In Yu-Gi-Oh, this victory is attributed to the famous "heart of the cards" the belief is that a duelist need only believe in their deck, and they'll draw their way to victory (play one game of Hearthstone and you'll be convinced that it's not a real thing). It's normal for the protagonist of a shonen to win literally every single time, until some finale where the bad guy is overpowered for once (but the protagonist wins anyway). As such, many scenes you do remember might've gone down much more horrifically in the Japanese originals. But in America, producers wanted to censor the show for children. In Japan the target audience was adults, young and old. This isn't even counting the various changes that had to be made when the series was dubbed to the English version. From the manga to the cards themselves, the lore is vast and almost impossible to keep up with. It holds a relatively darker premise than most other shonens (demographic of teenage males) of the time, partly evident by the fact that the monster battles themselves were known as Shadow Games (one of which is the Duel Monsters we know so well).Īs such, the series has a plethora of dark themes and creepy implications. Originally a manga first published in 1996, Yu-Gi-Oh! went on to spawn an abridged anime series, several spin-off series and films, many video games, and a real-life trading card game. While many of us hold Pokémon near and dear to our hearts, it wasn't the only battle monster anime from our childhood.
