Forum:Certain Characters' Age

In characters' pages, sometimes it has their age and sometimes it doesn't. For example, Joey's page has 16 next to "Age", and all the 3 Ishtar siblings have an age, but other's don't, so I have a few questions about certain characters' ages, of the spirits and the past lives of present-day characters.

1. Seto Kaiba does have a huge Kaiba Corporation to run as CEO, and therefore we don't normally see him in school in the extremely few episodes that show any part of school; he most likely learned enough anyway from his step-father, who in the manga made him study everything so much and so hard, especially about business. But in the very first episode of the anime, we see him in Domino High School in the same classroom as Yugi and his friends, listening about the rare card Yugi's Grandpa has, so he must be the same age as Yugi and his friends, who are around 16 or 17. His past life as Priest Seto looks just like him, as a young adult/teenager, but is that Priest Seto's age, too?

2. Although both Thief King Bakura and Pharaoh Atem are, when trapped in the Millennium Ring and Puzzle respectively, 5000-year old/3000-year old spirits, the people they actually once were in ancient Egypt were, of course, much younger. And also, their hosts of Ryo and Yugi are in Domino High School at about 16 years old, so wouldn't their hosts have to be around the same age as the spirits' "true people" ages? I doubt that either of the spirits could still possess their hosts when their hosts were as old as 80 and no longer looked anything like them in old age, and would have to wait for new "reincarnations" to take control of. Although the spirits, at least Atem, definitely seem a little older than their hosts (mainly since Atem is taller than Yugi with narrowed eyes), Atem and Bakura both look like teenagers/young adults. So wouldn't you think that their ages are similar to their hosts?

And what do you think their TRUE ages are?Mistystar31 (talk • contribs) 02:14, February 5, 2015 (UTC)
