Afterword
Kazuki Takahashi talks about starting the reprint series. He mentions that he very rarely re-reads a series after completion, fearing the embarrassment. He designed the covers for the occasion and felt there was a considerable gap compared to his artwork back at the beginning of the series, but commented that he still likes his early art.
He divided the story into the following chapters:
| Chapter | Name |
|---|---|
| Chapter 1 | School arc |
| Chapter 2 | Death-T arc |
| Chapter 3 | RPG (Monster World) arc |
| Chapter 4 | Duelist Kingdom |
| Chapter 5 | D·D·D arc |
| Chapter 6 | Battle City |
| Final Chapter | Pharaoh's Memory arc |
While the card game is more mainstream, he feels attached to the School arc in many ways. He recollects how it felt to overcome difficulties developing characters' personalities and relationships while under the pressure of trying to meet unfamiliar deadlines associated with a weekly series. Every character holding a weakness in their heart similar to the Millennium Puzzle was the key to the story, he felt and each character became a different piece to a puzzle.
He talks a bit about Yu-Gi-Oh GX, commenting that Yu-Gi-Oh! is being extended and thanks all the people involved in making and supporting the series.
