Kanekura's Weighing of the Heart was a Weighing of the Heart Shadow Game in the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga and first series anime. It was conducted by Shadi to measure Professor Kanekura's crimes.

Events

Prior events

Professor Kanekura had sponsored an excavation of a tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Shadi considered this to be defiling the tomb and trespassing on the territory of the Gods, so he put traveled to Japan to put Kanekura and Professor Yoshimori on trial. He visited Kanekura first at the Domino City Museum.

The game

Shadi placed the Feather of Ma'at in one side of the Millennium Scales and explained that he would ask Kanekura a series of questions. If Kanekura told the truth, the side containing the feather would lower. If he lied, the other side would lower with the weight of his sins and should that side hit the table, he would receive a Penalty Game.

Kanekura believing his chair has transformed into Ammit.

Shadi asked Kanekura if he was the only one present when a young girl falls deep into a well and finds her golden ring at his feet, what would he do. Kanekura claimed that he would save her. The side of the scales carrying the weight of his sins lowered slightly, although Kanekura insisted that he was telling the truth and was surprised to see the scales being weighed down without anything visibly being put in them.

Before his final question Kanekura asked what a Penalty Game was. So Shadi transformed Kanekura's chair into Ammit, who he said had taken residence in Kanekura's soul room.

The last question was did Kanekura defile the territory of the Gods and sell their treasure to fatten his own pockets. Kanekura begged Shadi to stop, saying he would pay him anything to stop. This caused the side without the feather to hit the table. Shadi declared that there was no truth in Kanekura's soul room, only greed and for that he shall be punished. Ammit opened her mouth wider, fitting Kanekura's head inside.
