Biography

Birth

Yusei was named after the Yusei particle, a particle discovered by his father, which was capable of bringing other particles together. His father hoped that he would become the bond who brought people together.

The Enforcers

Yusei was once in a Duel gang, The Enforcers, along with Jack Atlas, Crow Hogan and Kalin Kessler. Kalin was one of his closest friends. He Dueled with him once and lost. Together the Enforcers defeated all the other Duel gangs in the area, taking over all of Satellite. They were proud of their accomplishment, but lost sight of why they started the gang in the first place. Yusei and others thought that they had become shells of their former selves, but Kalin did not feel as such. He did not want to admit that their conquest was over and looked for tougher enemies. Eventually he decided to fight the entirety of Sector Security. Yusei, Crow and Jack did what they could to stop Kalin, but they failed and he was arrested. Kalin interpreted their efforts to stop him, as a betrayal and thought that they sold him out to Sector Security.

Dark Signers

To hide from a reporter, who was staling him, Yusei hid out at the player's house, for a while. He admitted to not being good at dealing with such people. As he was the new king, they were always looking for him to do something sensational. The player blamed this on the previous king and Yusei agreed. When he thought he had hid long enough for the reporter to give up, he got ready to leave and the player offered to walk him halfway. Yusei thought that would make him stand out less and agreed.

Yusei and the player went as far as a back alley and decided Yusei would be okay form there. However as Yusei was thanking the player, he felt a pain in his Mark of the Dragon, due to the presence of Tetsu Trudge, who was possessed by the Dark Signers. He recognized Trudge from their last Duel and suspected he was there to arrest him again. He warned Trudge about what happened last time, but Trudge said he was not interested in arresting him, but wanted to get rid of him for good. Yusei asked what was going on and Trudge introduced himself as a Dark Signer, who had come from the Underworld to meet him. Yusei wondered what a Dark Signer was and Hiroshi Kumakura (Lioside) said to Duel him and Trudge, if he wanted to find out. Trudge warned Yusei that it would be a Shadow Duel and that the darkness might remind Yusei of the meaning of the mark on his arm. Yusei accepted, so he and the player faced Trudge and Hiroshi in a Tag Duel.

Yusei and the player won. Yusei thanked his partner and commented on how real the Shadow Duel felt. He tried questioning Trudge, but found that he and Hiroshi had no memory of the Duel. Trudge remembered blacking out earlier and suspected Yusei had done something to him. Trudge fell unconscious again and Yusei realized his mark was no longer throbbing. He decided to call it a day and thanked the player for his help.

Yusei learned that his fate is connected with the legend of the Crimson Dragon. The battle between the Crimson Dragon and the Wicked Gods, to decide the true ruler of the world, is repeated every 5000 years and he heard that it was almost time for that battle to start again. He learned what his Mark of the Dragon was a mark of the Crimson Dragon and the mark of a chosen Signer and that the Dark Signers are his enemies and servants of the Wicked Gods. In order to stop the world plunging inot Darkness, he needed to defeat the Dark Signers. He learned that there is more than one Dark Signer and the two members of Sector Security that they Dueled earlier were not actual Dark Signers, but were controlled by a real Dark Signer.

Yusei returned to the player's house and woke him up to tell him what he had learned. He filled him in on his plan to gather the other Signers, in order to defeat the Dark Signers. Although, the player was not a Signer, Yusei felt a strong bond between them, when they Dueled together, and thought that his assistance would be valuable.

The player and Yusei went to the hospital to meet Akiza Izinski. However Akiza had recently lost her friend, Sayer, whom she believed to be the only person in the world who truly accepted her. Jack Atlas explained that her mental anguish drove her psychic power out of control, preventing the doctors from being able to get close to her. Yusei tried to calm her down, but Akiza mistook the intention of his visit as him coming to mock her. She offered to show Yusei her power again, but told her not to bring her hate into a Duel. She reminded Yusei that he had told her that her friend would guide her and asked if it was a lie. He claimed that it was not, but she refused to believe him and accused him of wanting to take away everything dear to her. Jack warned Yusei that at this rate, her power was going to start doing serious harm. Seeing no other way about it, Yusei decided that a Duel was the only way to reach her. Akiza interpreted the challenge as them being enemies, destined to battle, but Yusei claimed it was a test of the bond of their friendship. He asked Jack for help, so Jack decided to pair up with Akiza.

During the Duel, Akiza's rage calmed down and she managed to control her power. After he and the player won, Yusei told Akiza that there are people who believe in her and need her. He explained that Sayer had only been using her and was not a real friend. He stated that he believed in her, not because he was a Signer, but because he was a Duelist and a friend. With encouragement from Yusei, Akiza agreed to help the Signers.

Kalin Kessler, now a Dark Signer, confronted Yusei and Dueled him. During the Duel, Yusei learned that he was responsible for Kalin becoming a Dark Signer. Kalin Summoned "Earthbound Immortal Ccapac Apu", which was Summoned by absorbing the souls of other people. Yusei thought that Kalin was much stronger than when he had known him before and considered himself lucky to survive the Duel.

Yusei visited the player and told him about his encounter with Kalin. He felt it was his duty to face Kalin again and that he owed Kalin, for making him become a Dark Signer. He wanted the player to witness the Duel and invited him to come along.

At the old Enerdy system, Yusei and the player met up with Trudge. They went to the area, where Yusei agreed to face Kalin again. Kalin saw the player and asked if Yusei betrayed him for the player. Yusei explained that he did not know the player back then and briefed the player in on his and Kalin's history. Kalin still believe that Yusei had chosen the player over him. Wanting to send both of them to their graves, he possessed Trudge, so he could face Yusei and the player in a Tag Duel. Yusei apologized for dragging the player into this, but said he needed his help and they accepted the Duel.

Yusei and the player won the Duel. Yusei still refused to cast a friend aside and vowed to save Kalin. He asked Kalin to join him, insisting it would be like the old days. Kalin explained that when he became a Dark Signer, he had a desire to have one final Duel under The Enforcers' name. He said that he could never truly hate Yusei and thanked him for the good times, before disappearing. Yusei wept and insisted that Kalin had always been his friend. He vowed to everything he could to defeat the Dark Signers for him.

Yusei visited the player and informed him that he planned on putting an end to the battle. He was going to the Old Enerdy system, where he was sure the Dark Signers would be waiting to fight him. He confessed that he thought he was wrong for getting the player involved in the conflict, but still did not think it was right to leave without asking the player if he wanted to help.

At the old Enerdy system, Yusei and the player met the Dark Signers Devak and Roman Goodwin. Roman said that he never thought he would Duel the son of Dr. Fudo for the 5000-year reign. Roman told Yusei about work he had done with Yusei's father and how he had discovered that the Enerdy system they had been working could be used to revive the gods. Yusei's father had disagreed and developed a device capable of shutting the Ener-D system away. Four keys were necessary to activate the device, "Ancient Fairy Dragon", "Black Rose Dragon", "Red Dragon Archfiend" and "Stardust Dragon". However Roman continued the research and activated the Ener-D system, opening a door to the Underworld. Yusei realized that the incident with Old Ener-D was not an accident. Roman claimed that the world needed to change and that he decided to make it happen. Yusei questioned his position to make that decision for everyone else and how many lives he must take to satisfy his arrogance. Roman replied that he would not expect a Singer to understand. With nothing left to say, he challenged Yusei to a Duel. Demak offered to Duel for him, but since there were two opponents, Roman suggested that they Tag Duel against Yusei and the player. Yusei vowed not to forgive Roman and to end everything now, making Roman pay for the people who lost their lives to him.

After winning the Duel, Yusei asked if Roman knew how many lives he had ruined with what he called "destiny" and if he knew the pain endured by the survivors. Roman laughed that it was not the end, as even stronger god had already been released.

Yliaster

Yusei heard rumors of the Ghost Duelists, stating that the Ghosts challenge Duelists whenever they see them and inflict serious injury on their opponents. He heard that Sector Security were on the case, but were unable to identify the Ghost Duelists, as they flee quickly and vanish after their Duels. He informed the player, who then accompanied him, as he went shopping for parts.

Yusei discovers that the Ghosts are robots.

At Combat Lane, Yusei and the player heard two men being troubled by opponents, who had just defeated them. They went over to see what happened and confronted the winners of the Duel, Dean and Wade. Yusei realized that they were Ghosts and accused them of corrupting the art of Dueling. He vowed to make them pay and they initiated a Tag Duel, forcing the player to take part too. After winning, Yusei demanded that the Ghosts tell him why they had been causing trouble. Wade replied that they had come to the world to eliminate unnecessary beings. Yusei did not understand what that had to do with injuring other Duelists and asked how they had the power to injure people through Dueling. Dean and Wade replied that Yusei would eventually understand if his species is on the correct evolutionary path.

After they crashed, Yusei realized that Dean and Wade had been robots. Trudge and Mina Simington then arrived to investigate the scene. Yusei explained that the Ghosts are robots and Trudge was surprised, as the robots were actually Duel Bots, which were being developed by Sector Security. Trudge explained that some had been stolen recently and Yusei wondered who would want them and for what purpose. Mina thanked Yusei and the player for their help, although Yusei thought he had not done much.
