Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions is a film that was released in Japan on April 23, 2016. Worldwide, it is slated for a 2017 release. The film is an original story and features Yugi Muto and Seto Kaiba as its main characters. The film's story is set after the events of the original manga.

In celebration of the film and franchise in general, TV Tokyo began airing a remastered digital edition of the 2000–2004 Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters anime in Japan. A manga special, "TRANSCEND GAME", parts 1 and 2, printed in Weekly Shōnen Jump, serves as a link between the end of the manga series and the beginning of the film.

Summary

At the KaibaCorp space station, Seto Kaiba observes a virtual reconstruction of the Millennium Puzzle.

The Shrine of the Underworld, being excavated.

In Kul Elna, the Shrine of the Underworld is excavated by KaibaCorp, with Mani, among the workers. One of the other works takes out a device, displaying an image of the Millennium Puzzle being worn by Yugi Muto, so that he knows what it is they are looking for. He exits the shrine just as a helicopter, carrying Mokuba Kaiba flies past.

At Kame Game, Yugi is leaving to go to school, but is stopped by Solomon Muto, who comments on Téa Gardner. Yugi leaves and at a flight of stairs, meets Téa, who greets him with a shoulder bump.

Joey Wheeler hurriedly cycles to school. His carelessness causes him to get soaked by a man emptying a bucket of water and nearly knock over a policeman. Yugi and Téa arrive at school, where they spot Ryo Bakura, who is being obsessed over by a group of girls. Joey catches up with Tristan Taylor and with one minute before the school gate closes, Tristan gets onto the back of Joey's bike. The two speed downhill and get inside the gate, just as Mr. Karita closes it.

Yugi and his friends discuss their futures.

At lunchtime on the roof of the school, Yugi and his friends discuss their futures. Téa wishes to study dancing in New York. Tristan is unhappy with the job he has lined up working for his father. Joey would like to become a professional Duelist, but needs to repair his Duel Disk, which has become old and broken. Yugi reckons he will stay working in Kame Game, helping his grandfather, because he wishes to become a game designer himself and create a game that will be enjoyed by children, all over the world. Tristan and Joey support his idea and offer to help him out. Téa says that she is certain Yugi will succeed.

When Yugi and his friends return to class, they spot a new student. They think that they remember him, but struggle to think of his name, before Tristan finally says that it is Aigami.

After school, Yugi is walking with Joey and Téa. He and Joey have received back their Deck and Duel Disk respectively, that their teacher confiscated. As Yugi looks through his Deck, he thinks of Atem and pauses. Joey asks him what is wrong and although Yugi insists it is nothing, Joey realizes he is thinking of Atem and say that it is impossible to forget him. Yugi reflects on the Ceremonial Battle, remembering himself sealing "Monster Reborn" in "Gold Sarcophagus", Atem walking through the Doorway to the Underworld and the Millennium Items, falling into the depths of the Earth.

Aigami produces the Quantum Cube.

Joey notices Aigami, being harassed by Kudaragi and his gang, with Kudaragi commenting on Aigami's cute face and making provocative remarks. Joey jumps down from the bridge and approaches the group. Aware of Joey's past in a gang, Kudaragi and his companions let the matter drop for the time being and leave Aigami alone, but Kudaragi instructs Aigami to meet him at the KaibaCorp construction site later and threatens him, should he not show up. Aigami thanks Joey, Téa and Yugi insists that he is fine, before leaving.

Later at the construction site, Kudaragi and his gang have a video camera to record Aigami. They threaten him with various weapons and say that today's lesson is "pain". Aigami is silent at first, but laughs and asks the gang how long he has been in their memories and if they are aware that he has altered them. He produces the Quantum Cube and the lights go out. A group of children with glowing eyes appear and surround the gang. The gangsters start to glow and a symbol appears on Aigami's forehead. Kudaragi and his gang are disintegrated and drop their camera. Aigami walks away, but returns to collect the camera.

Yami Yugi, at the church.

At a church-like setting, Yami Yugi dressed as he was, while sharing Yugi's body and has two additional gold armbands. He walks through a set of doors, where he faces Kaiba. The two engage in a Duel, which ultimately ends in Kaiba's victory.

The Duel is revealed to have taken place in a virtual reality, while Kaiba is in his space station. One of Kaiba's scientists hands Kaiba a bottle of water and comments on how well the system is perfoming, but Kaiba is not happy. He deems the Duel imperfect, because he had not accurately recreated Atem, based on his memories. In frustration, he throws the bottle on to the ground. Mokuba contacted the space station and informed Kaiba that they had found the pieces of the Millennium Puzzle at the excavation.

Téa, Duke, Tristan, Yugi and Bakura at Devlin's cafe.

At a mall, Yugi, Téa, Tristan and Bakura are sitting at Devlin's cafe, being served by Duke Devlin, while in the news, it is reported that Kudaragi and his gang have disappeared. Nearby, Joey is wearing a dog costume, walking around, handing out balloons. Bakura mentions how recently he has been getting the feeling he is being watched, which Téa points out is due to the girls that were obsessing over him, who are currently stalking him.

Aigami teleports to the mall, where he stands on a higher level and watches over Yugi and his friends. He reflects on a time he was on a plateau above the clouds. There were seven pillars on the plateau, each depicting a Millennium Item. As Aigami stands before one of the pillars, children appear and disappear, while he and Sera remain constantly present.

The plateau.

Aigami reflects further back to when he and Sera were alone and thirsty in Egypt. Sera refers to Aigami as "Diva", as she gives him a cup of water. Aigami decides to leave the plateau and is followed by some of the others, including Mani.

In the present, Mani calls Aigami a few times, at the mall, before Aigami takes notice. He tries to talk him out of a revenge he knows he is considering, stating it not the target's fault or what their mentor would have wanted. He then informs him that Kaiba found the Millennium Puzzle, prompting Aigami to teleport away.

Kaiba suddenly appears on screens across the mall and introduces his new Duel Disk, which he says will be demonstrated in an exhibition Duel at Kaiba Land. Joey groans that he will not be able to afford the new Duel Disk and Tristan suggests that he will need to get another part-time job, causing him and Joey to start fighting. Téa tries to break them up, but Joey eats her ice cream, while continuing to fight. Joey's boss, Mr. Clown, sees this and fires Joey, who begs him not to.

In Kul Elna, Mokuba and Roland are waiting for Kaiba, who soon arrives in his Blue-Eyes White Dragon jet. The group entered the Shrine of the Underworld and Kaiba notes the location of the Ceremonial Battle. He and Mokuba walk towards the disassembled Millennium Puzzle, whose pieces are being scanned by a computer. Mokuba asks how Kaiba plans on reconstructing the puzzle, when it took Yugi eight years to do so and Kaiba makes a reply about Yugi being a child, when he did it.

Kaiba is informed that it takes 30 minutes to disable the security system for the Millennium Puzzle's lock. To pass the time Kaiba, says he shall have a Duel and aware of Aigami's presence among the crowd, Kaiba calls him out, using the name, "Diva". Aigami questions how he knew his name and Kaiba asks how he is in Egypt, having been in Domino City just minutes ago, while showing footage of him.

One of the KaibaCorp men threatens Aigami with a gun. An act, which is mocked by Aigami, before using the Quantum Cube to make the man disappear. After witnessing this, group of workers run away, leaving just Kaiba, Mokuba, Aigami, Mani and some KaibaCorp employees.

Aigami and Kaiba, Dueling.

Aigami attempts to use his cube on Kaiba, but Kaiba readies his Duel Disk, which counters the effect of the cube. Kaiba yells, asking if Aigami thinks he can defeat him with his own power. Aigami instead challenges Kaiba to a Duel, which he accepts and the cube transforms into a Duel Disk.

Kaiba pulls "Obelisk" from the ground.

Kaiba and Aigami Duel using the Dimension Area ruleset. Kaiba is outperformed at first, but resolves that he cannot lose, since he must face "Yugi", before correcting himself and saying "Atem". Having used virtual cards up until this point, Kaiba slams his hand into the ground and pulls out a physical card, "Obelisk the Tormentor". He Summons it, which Aigami thought would be impossible, since "Obelisk" was one of the pharaoh's monsters. Kaiba sacrificed two of his monsters to use the effect of "Obelisk", raising its ATK to infinity, and then attacked and defeated Aigami.

The computer finishes scanning the pieces of the Millennium Puzzle. Mokuba then hooks the case containing the puzzle to the KaibaCorp helicopter and flies away, taunting Aigami. However Aigami teleports up onto the case and with a glowing purple hand, reaches through the glass. Mokuba sees what Aigami is doing and headbutts him, knocking him off the case. Kaiba concludes that he has what he needs and gets back into his jet to leave.

Mani notices the pit that the puzzle had been extracted from is glowing, so he teleports into it and finds the Millennium Ring.

Joey wakes up on the top of a flying KaibaCorp blimp, where Kaiba is patronizingly towering over him. He taunts him about the new Duel Disk, saying that a commoner (凡骨 bonkotsu) like him will never be able to afford it and teasingly asks if he wants it. Joey falls off the blimp, but wakes from his dream, during the graduation rehearsal at school, falling out of his chair.

On the stage, Yugi practices his speech, while Aigami stands at the back of the hall, only visible to Sera, who has just arrived. She refers to Aigami as "brother" and asks if he fought Kaiba. Aigami hands her a piece, he managed to swipe from the Millennium Puzzle, and instructs her to keep it safe. He comments on the resurrection of the pharaoh, but Sera is not too enthusiastic. She disappears, leaving Aigami to approach Yugi and his friends, expressing interest in getting to know them better.

The group go bowling with Aigami and then head to Burger World. The group tell Aigami stories about their adventures together, including their trip to Egypt, which Aigami says he would look to hear more about. Joey shows his Deck to Aigami, praises Yugi's Dueling skills. Aigami shows interest in Dueling Yugi, but Joey says that he will have to get through him first, so Yugi invites them to have a Duel tournament at his house.

The elevator to the space station.

Kaiba enters an elevator, which takes him to the space station. He takes the Millennium Puzzle pieces to a small room and puts them on a floor, where a computer begins to put the pieces together. It provides a six-hour estimate for completion and Kaiba is thinking to himself "Wait for me... Yugi".

Aigami, Bakura and Joey are on their way to visit Yugi, who has arranged to face Aigami in a friendly Duel. Aigami shows Joey and Bakura his Quantum Cube, which he says is a Deck case, which was given to him by someone important to him. Bakura mentions having once had an item that his father brought back from Egypt and Aigami replies that he would like to hear more of this story.

At Kame Game, Yugi is preparing his Deck for the Duel tournament, when Sera enters the store. She notices the Millennium Puzzle box, which Yugi had been keeping his cards in and comments that is pretty. Yugi tidies it away and informs her that it is not for sale.

Sera shows him the plateau with the seven pillars and then takes him back to the store. She has now disappeared, but Yugi opens the puzzle box and finds the piece of the Millennium Puzzle that Aigami had given to Sera.

Kaiba, observing the near-complete Millennium Puzzle.

At the space station, the computer has almost finished reassembling the Millennium Puzzle, but reports that two pieces are missing. At first, Kaiba says that this is impossible, but then realizes that Aigami must have taken them when he put his hand through the glass.

Bakura talks about how stowed away in the cargo of a ship in Egypt when he was young, while his father searched for the Millennium Ring, but he stops talking, unsure why he is sharing this information. Aigami uses his powers on Bakura, who cries out that he does not want to remember. Joey tries to intervene, but a group of children appear and tell him that Aigami wishes to speak with Bakura and he is being a bother. Joey is sent to another dimension, where he finds himself in a street, with other people walking past him. The world begins to dissolve around him and Aigami appears in the sky, taunting him, saying that he is worthless and cannot escape.

While Yugi is wondering where everyone is, Tristan arrives and informs him that he has found Joey's bicycle and Duel Disk abandoned, something Joey would never do. He takes Yugi on his motorbike to see Joey's abandoned bike and they meet with Téa.

Aigami approaches Bakura, who is cringed on the ground, in a panic. Aigami laughs and asks if he does not remember. He conjures a flashback, where Shadi, is with a group of children including Aigami, Sera and Mani. The Tablet of the Pharaoh's Memories is nearby, with the Millennium Ring and Scales inside it. Shadi explains that three of the Millennium Items are weak to evil, three represent justice and that the Millennium Puzzle contains both justice and evil. He says to Aigami that he is on the same level as the person destined to solve the Millennium Puzzle.

Shadi states that when the seven Millennium Items are gathered the door to a better world will open and that the children may travel there, because they have been chosen. The young Aigami thinks that he wants to go to that world and says that he is not afraid of anything, because of his friends and family. But Shadi replies that that is his very fear.

Bakura acquires the Millennium Ring.

Bakura's father appears and is excited to see the Millennium Ring, having spent his life searching for it. He offers Shadi a bag of money for the item. Shadi explains that the item is not for sale, but that he can put it on, so he can be tested to see if he is worthy. Bakura's father puts the ring on, but after a few seconds, he is thrown across the room, with the ring detaching from him. Bakura's father is attacked by shadows in the shape of snakes, prompting the young Ryo Bakura to emerge from his hiding place to help him. He runs to his father, who begs him to get the ring. Bakura picks it up and a purple light is emitted.

Yami Bakura is awakened, while the Millennium Ring fuses into Bakura's body, disappearing under his skin. Yami Bakura thanks Shadi for bringing him a nice landlord and proceeds to attack and fatally wound Shadi. The children run to Shadi, who gives the Quantum Cube to Aigami, just before dying. Yami Bakura continues to attack the children, with Aigami and Sera managing to survive.

In the present, Bakura is shocked by what he has seen. He weeps and claims that it was all the Millennium Ring, but apologizes for taking away someone important to Aigami. Mani arrives with the Millennium Ring, now warped by its evil. He attempts to kill Bakura, before regaining control of himself. He throws Bakura to one side and tells Aigami to run. Bakura is transported to one dimension. Aigami and Mani go to another, where Mani dies and disappears. Aigami considers taking the Millennium Ring, but stops when he hears Yugi calling for Joey.

At Domino City Plaza, Aigami appears before Yugi and admits that he is a Prana, whose real name is Diva. He explains that the "Aigami" Yugi knew was merely an illusion, implanted in his memory.

Joey, in the dissolving dimension.

Inside, the dissolving dimension, Joey falls and his body begins to fade away with the rest of the world. However there is a flash of light and Joey sees Atem. Joey then finds himself back in his own world, where Yugi, Téa and Tristan and relieved to find him, but still worried about Bakura. Aigami then disappears, calling Yugi and his friends interesting. Joey begins to tell Yugi, about him seeing Atem, but stops himself and says it is nothing, before rushing to help find Bakura.

While Aigami is on the roof of a building, he is suddenly abducted and blindfolded by a group of men from KaibaCorp. He is brought before Kaiba, who demands the pieces of the puzzle. After refusing to hand them over, he is taken to Kaiba Land.

Kaiba approaches Yugi.

During his search for Bakura, Yugi stops at a road crossing just as the lights change. He takes a moment to catch his breath and notices that the traffic is stopped, when it should be moving. Looking into the intersection, he sees that Kaiba is the source of the disruption. Yugi asks him what he is doing there and Kaiba declares that Yugi is to take part in the exhibition Duel at Kaiba Land, no excuses. He shows Yugi the near-reassembled Millennium Puzzle and expresses his belief that Yugi and Aigami have the two missing pieces. Before leaving on his helicopter, he explains that his goal is to face "the other Yugi" and that Yugi alone is of little interest to him.

Sera, commenting on Yugi re-completing the Millennium Puzzle.

Yugi sees that the Millennium Puzzle box with his piece is in the road and proceeds to collect it just as traffic begins to move. He almost gets hit by a truck, but is saved by Sera, who teleports him to safety. Yugi thanks her and she says it is up to him to complete the Puzzle or not once again. She also requests that Yugi save her elder brother.

Aigami dreams of himself and Sera, back in Egypt, thirsty and begging people, who regard them as a nuisance. He wakes up tied to a chair in a glass prison, with Mokuba on the other side of the glass. Kaiba monitors their interaction externally. Mokuba taunts Aigami, who affirms that Kaiba will never get both pieces. However Mokuba claims to already know where the other piece is and shows him pictures of Sera. At the Kaiba Land stadium, which boosts a high attendance, Kaiba Summons "Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" and has it attack Solid Vision fighter jets. He gives a speech to the audience about Dueling and his new Duel Disk. Among those in attendance are Weevil Underwood and Rex Raptor. Yugi and Aigami are introduced and Kaiba announces that he will be Dueling each of them for their pieces of the Millennium Puzzle.

Sera appears before Aigami and apologizes, but maintains that she made the right decision in giving her puzzle piece to Yugi. Aigami is relieved to see that she is okay.

Aigami and Yugi about to Duel.

Yugi gets annoyed and demands that he be the one to Duel Aigami. Since Aigami had hurt Yugi's friends and caused Bakura's disappearance, Yugi considers this to be his battle. Kaiba allows for it and throws Yugi a new Duel Disk.

Yugi and Aigami begin to Duel. After reducing Yugi to just a few Life Points, Aigami claims he is not doing anything wrong; he just wishes to go the new dimension and leave the current corrupt world behind. He invites Yugi to join him, but Yugi refuses to give up on the current world and its future.

Aigami reflects on his youth, when he was living with an abusive man, who would get children to steal for him. The man would neglect the children and use the stolen money to take care on himself. Shadi appeared before them and immobilized the man. He approached Aigami and pushed against his forehead, causing a gold symbol to momentarily appear. When Sera asked what he did to her brother, Shadi assured her that he was safe. He then proceeded to perform the same action on the other children. Finally, he unfroze the man and used the Quantum Cube to put an end to him.

In the present, Yugi turns the Duel in his favor and defeats Aigami, reiterating that he believes in the future. Aigami disappears after the Duel. While Joey, Téa and Tristan celebrate Yugi's victory, a light appears in the audience, as Bakura is brought back to their world.

Kaiba and Yugi about to Duel.

Kaiba advances to the field to Duel Yugi for the two pieces. He states that his goal is to bring back "the other Yugi," whom he has unfinished business with. He does not expect the Duel to take long, as he is only Dueling the regular Yugi. Kaiba places the Millennium Puzzle in the center of the field, where it floats in a beam of light. Yugi tries to tell Kaiba that Atem is gone, but he pays no attention and they begin their Duel. A few turns in, Yugi insists that the Duel is pointless and demonstrates by inserting the last two pieces into the Millennium Puzzle. Nothing happens, much to Kaiba's surprise.

Aigami is back in the dimension where Mani had died and sees the Millennium Ring again. Without touching it, he becomes engulfed in its evil and screams for Sera to save him.

Yugi recompletes the Millennium Puzzle.

Yugi explains to Kaiba that nothing happened because Atem is no longer inside the Puzzle. Kaiba is furious and accuses Yugi of deceiving him. The two continue to Duel and Yugi eventually attacks Kaiba, who had 2500 Life Points, with "Dark Magician", which had 2500 ATK. Kaiba's Life Points decrease, but he smirks as the counter suddenly stops at 100. The power at the stadium is shut down, prematurely ending the Duel.

People in the audience scream as they suddenly disappear in a wave of darkness. Aigami, now influenced by the evil within the Millennium Ring, which is now fused into his chest, appears and Yugi and Kaiba team up to Duel him.

Aigami, distorted by the Millennium Ring.

The Duel is a Shadow Game, where players' bodies fade away as they lose Life Points. Aigami manages to defeat Kaiba, who hands Yugi the Millennium Puzzle, before disappearing and demands Yugi to "call him now". Yugi puts on the puzzle and continues the Duel. Towards the end, Yugi's body reaches its limits and he finds himself incapable of drawing his next card. He apologizes to everyone and begins to black out, but is suddenly engulfed in a beam of golden light. Atem, dressed in the Domino High School uniform, appears superimposed over Yugi and the two draw together. Yugi and Atem Summon "Palladium Oracle Mahad", who kneels before them. Using "Mahad", the two defeat Aigami, whose body reverts to normal, before disappearing.

Gold light moves throughout the stadium and other people whose bodies had faded away reappear. Yugi and Atem split into separate bodies and stand facing each other. After a moment of silence, Yugi nods and Atem presses on the Millennium Puzzle, making it and himself disappear. Mani is revived and is now with Aigami, Sera, and the other children. Joey, Téa, Tristan and Bakura congratulate Yugi, who informs them that he saw Atem. Joey mentions seeing him earlier too and the group is approached by Kaiba, who is interested in the fact that they saw Atem. Kaiba acknowledges Yugi as a competent Duelist and Yugi thanks him for believing in him. Kaiba gives him a smile and parts ways.

Yugi gives his speech.

During the graduation ceremony, Yugi reads his speech, causing Téa to tear up and Joey and Tristan to cry uncontrollably. In Egypt, Aigami and Sera part ways from Mani, on good terms. At the airport, Téa leaves for America and her friends all see her off.

On the KaibaCorp space station, Kaiba is on a call with Mokuba, who is warning him of something dangerous. Mokuba says that the item in question has not been fully tested and the safety precautions have not been ensured. Kaiba says not to worry and despite Mokuba begging him otherwise, he gets into a pod, with the Quantum Cube next to him. He also leaves KaibaCorp to Mokuba. He activates the cube, causing the space station to be covered in gold light, as he shoots down the elevator shaft that connects the station to Earth.

Kaiba appears in a desert and walks to the top of a hill, overlooking a city containing Atem's palace. Kaiba advances to the throne room, where Atem is sitting, wearing the Millennium Puzzle. Atem stands up, faces Kaiba and confidently smiles.

Design

The main characters; Yugi, Kaiba, Joey, Téa, Tristan, Bakura, Mokuba, Aigami, Sera and Mani

A number of the characters and elements are given redesigns by Kazuki Takahashi, as well as new ones being introduced.

Characters

• Yugi Muto: He was drawn to look more mature and to show he inherited Dark Yugi's strength.
• Seto Kaiba: His expressions are closer to the more sinister look that he had when he was first introduced.
• Joey Wheeler: Joey's expression reflects the maturity he gained from his battles in the original story. As a favorite of Takahashi, he paid particular attention to giving him a nice face.
• Tristan Taylor: Tristan has a much calmer expression.
• Téa Gardner: Téa continued her career as a dancer after the original story. Takahashi considered this to be Téa at her cutest.
• Bakura Ryou: Takahashi considered Bakura to be the most mysterious and consequently the least changed out of the major characters. He, however, now has a smoother haircut and a long shirt underneath.

Cards

• "Dark Magician". "Dark Magician" looks similar to it did in Duel Art. Originally, "Dark Magician" was more blue and purple than black. This was because in manga, a completely black character weighs the page down and can be difficult to deal with, but this is not a concern in movies.
• New "Blue-Eyes White Dragon": When designing monsters, Takahashi felt adding a lot of lines can make them look cool at the cost of quality, and that simple designs are most beautiful. However, as he was dealing with animation, lighting and other effects would bring out the differences, so he designed this "Blue-Eyes" with a style not used before.

Items

• Duel Disk: The new-and-improved Duel Disk, developed by Kaiba Corporation, creates Solid Vision holograms from images in the user's brain.

Production

The film was announced in the West before it was in Japan. 4K Media revealed the film's existence on the official Yu-Gi-Oh! website. They teased that the movie was already in development in Japan and that they were shopping for a distributor in all non-Asian territories.

In Japan, the Mainichi Shimbun newspaper's MAiDiGiTV streamed a video teasing the film, alongside a recap of the history of the near-twenty year franchise. Here, it was revealed that the film would feature Yugi Muto and Seto Kaiba as its main protagonists.

Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump also unveiled a synopsis of the movie: "In the past, Dark Yugi and Kaiba have clashed many times! Dark Yugi, who resides in Yugi Muto's body, and Kaiba will have a Duel that bets their prides and accepts each other's mutual experience."

The forty-seventh issue of Weekly Shonen Jump unveiled two new monsters that will be played by Yugi, "Lemon Magician Girl" and "Apple Magician Girl", and specified that "Dark Magician Girl" will also be appearing. "Clear Kuriboh" was also revealed, but its name was not announced.

Featured Duels

Yami Yugi vs. Seto Kaiba

Turn 1: Kaiba
Kaiba draws and activates "Polymerization", fusing the three "Blue-Eyes White Dragons" in his hand to Fusion Summon "Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" (4500/3800) in Attack Position. Kaiba Sets a card.

Turn 2: Yugi
Yami Yugi activates "Dark Magic Veil", paying 1000 LP (Yami Yugi: 8000 → 7000) to Special Summon "Dark Magician" (2500/2100) from his hand in Attack Position. As he controls "Dark Magician", he activates "Thousand Knives" to destroy "Neo Blue-Eyes", but Kaiba activates his face-down "Victim's Darkness", letting him send a Level 3 or lower DARK monster from his Deck to the Graveyard to prevent the destruction of his monster by a Spell or Trap effect. He sends "Saggi the Dark Clown". Yami Yugi Sets two cards.

Turn 3: Kaiba
"Neo Blue-Eyes" attacks "Dark Magician". As a monster he controls is being attacked, Yami Yugi activates his face-down "Time Chain", preventing the destruction of his monster and then treating both monsters as though they are not face-up on the field until their controller's second Standby Phase (Yami Yugi: 7000 → 5000). Kaiba Sets a card.

Turn 4: Yugi
Yami Yugi Normal Summons "Celtic Guard of Noble Arms" (2100/700). He then activates its effect, letting him Special Summon an "Elf" monster from his hand. He Special Summons "Celtic Guardian" (1400/1200) in Attack Position. "Celtic Guard" and "Celtic Guardian" attack directly (Kaiba: 8000 → 4500). The effect of "Celtic Guard" activates, letting Yami Yugi draw one card for each "Elf" monster he controls, so he draws two.

Turn 5: Kaiba
As he controls no monsters, Kaiba Special Summons "Kaiser Vorse Raider" (1900/1200) from his hand in Attack Position. "Kaiser Vorse Raider" attacks and destroys "Celtic Guardian" (Yami Yugi: 5000 → 4500). Kaiba Sets a card.

Turn 6: Yugi
As it is his second Standby Phase after the activation of "Time Chain", "Dark Magician" is treated as being on the field again. As there is a face-up Spellcaster-Type monster on his side of the field, Yami Yugi activates "Magical Dimension", letting him Tribute a monster to Special Summon a Spellcaster-Type monster from his hand and destroy an opponent's monster. He Tributes "Celtic Guard" to Special Summon "Dark Magician Girl" (2000/1700) from his hand in Attack Position and destroy "Kaiser Vorse Raider". As one of his monsters was destroyed by the effect of a Spell Card, Kaiba activates his face-down "Induced Explosion", letting him destroy a card his opponent controls. He destroys "Time Chain", making "Neo Blue-Eyes" be treated as being face-up on the field again.

Turn 7: Kaiba
"Neo Blue-Eyes" attacks "Dark Magician". As an opponent's monster declared an attack, Yami Yugi activates his face-down "Dimension Reflector", letting him banish two Spellcaster-Type monsters he controls, then target the attacking monster and Special Summon "Dimension Reflector" as a monster with ATK and DEF equal to the targeted monster's ATK and inflict battle damage to the opponent equal to that value. He banishes "Dark Magician" and "Dark Magician Girl" to Special Summon "Dimension Reflector" (4500/4500). As he would take battle damage, Kaiba activates his face-down "Enhanced Counter", reducing that damage to 0 and increasing the ATK of a monster he controls by an amount equal to the damage he would have taken ("Neo Blue-Eyes": 4500 → 9000). "Neo Blue-Eyes attacks and destroys "Dimension Reflector" (Yami Yugi: 4500 → 0).

At the end of the Duel, it is revealed to be a virtual reality Duel programmed by Kaiba so that he could Duel Yami Yugi.

Seto Kaiba vs. Aigami

At the start of the Duel, the Dimension Summoning rules take effect. A player may Special Summon a monster from their hand by using their 'Spirit' to determine its ATK value (whilst not surpassing its original ATK). Players take no battle damage with battles involving Dimension Summoned monsters, but will take damage equal to their ATK when they are destroyed.

Turn 1: Kaiba
Kaiba's hand contains "Krystal Dragon", "Lord of D.", "Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon", "???", "???" and "???". He Dimension Summons "Krystal Dragon" (2500/1000) in Attack Position and Sets 2 cards.

Turn 2: Aigami
Aigami Dimension Summons "Vijam the Cubic Seed" (0/0) in Attack Position.

Yugi Muto vs. Seto Kaiba

Turn 1: Yugi
Yugi Normal Summons "Marshmacaron" (200/200) in Defense Position and Sets 2 cards.

Turn 2: Kaiba
Kaiba Normal Summons "Assault Wyvern" (1800/1000) in Attack Position . "Assault Wyvern" attacks and destroys "Marshmacaron", but Yugi activates the latter's effect as it was destroyed, Special Summoning 2 more (200/200) from his Deck in Defense Position. Kaiba responds by activating the effect of "Assault Wyvern": since it destroyed a monster by battle, he can Tribute it to Special Summon a Dragon-Type monster from his hand. He chooses "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000/2500) in Attack Position. Kaiba then activates "Dragon's Fighting Spirit", allowing "Blue-Eyes" to gains a number of additional attacks equal to the number of monsters Yugi controls. "Blue-Eyes" attacks and destroys both "Marshmacarons", and then attacks directly (Yugi: 8000 → 5000). Since Yugi took battle damage, he activates his set "Dark Horizon", Special Summoning "Dark Magician" (2500/2100) from his Deck in face-up Attack Position, since its ATK is less than the battle damage he took.

Turn 3: Yugi
"Metamorphortress" treated as an Effect monster equipped with "Dark Magician" (1000/1000 → 3500/3500) attacks and destroys "Blue-Eyes" (Kaiba: 8000 → 7500). At the end of the battle step, the effect of "Metamorphortress" switches it to Defense Position. Yugi Sets 1 card.

Turn 4: Kaiba
Kaiba activates "Chaos Form", Ritual Summoning "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon" (4000/0) in Attack Position, without tributes since he has a "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" in his Graveyard. "Chaos MAX Dragon" attacks and destroys "Metamorphortress", inflicting doubled piercing battle damage (Yugi: 5000 → 4000). Since "Dark Magician" was equipped to "Metamorphortess", it is also destroyed.

Turn 5: Yugi
Yugi Normal Summons "Apple Magician Girl" (1200/800) in Attack Position and Sets 1 card.

Turn 6: Kaiba
"Chaos MAX Dragon" attacks "Apple Magician Girl", but Yugi activates the latter's effect, Special Summoning "Lemon Magician Girl" (800/600) from his hand in Attack Position and redirecting the attack to the Summmoned monster, while also halving the ATK of the attacking monster ("Chaos MAX Dragon": 4000/0 → 2000/0). Yugi then proceeds to activate the effect of "Lemon Magician Girl", which is the same as "Apple". He Special Summons "Dark Magician Girl" (2000/1700) ("Chaos MAX Dragon": 2000/0 → 1000/0). "Chaos MAX Dragon" is forced to battle "Dark Magician Girl" and is destroyed (Kaiba: 7500 → 6500).

As a "Blue-Eyes" monster was destroyed, Kaiba Special Summons "Deep-Eyes White Dragon" (0/0) from his hand in Attack Position, with its effect inflicting 600 damage to Yugi for each differently-named Dragon-Type monster in Kaiba's Graveyard. He has three (Yugi: 4000 → 2200). "Deep-Eyes" then gains ATK equal to one of the Dragon-Type monsters in Kaiba's Graveyard, and he chooses "Chaos MAX Dragon" ("Deep-Eyes": 0/0 → 4000/0). "Deep-Eyes" attacks and destroys "Lemon Magician Girl", but Yugi activates his Set "Magicians' Defense" to halve the battle damage (Yugi: 2200 → 600). Kaiba Sets 1 card.

Turn 7: Yugi
Yugi hands Kaiba a Spell Card to activate "Magical Contract Door", which lets him add "Gandora-X the Dragon of Demolition" from his Deck to hand and subsequently Tribute Summon it (0/0) in Attack Position by Tributing "Apple Magician Girl" and "Dark Magician Girl". Yugi activates the effect of "Gandora-X", destroying all other monsters on the field and inflict damage to Kaiba equal to the highest ATK on the field among the destroyed monsters (Kaiba: 6500 → 2500), then make "Gandora-X" gain an equal amount of ATK. However, as "Deep-Eyes" was destroyed by a card effect, Kaiba activates its effect, destroying "Gandora-X" as well.
