Manga events
Prior events
Shadi came to Japan to put Professor Kanekura and Professor Yoshimori on trial for an excavation they carried out in the Valley of the Kings, which he saw this as trespassing on the territory of the gods. After killing Kanekura in a Weighing of the Heart Shadow Game, Shadi found the Millennium Puzzle on his desk and soon discovered it had been solved by Yugi Mutou.[1]
Shadi entered Yugi's soul room using the Millennium Key in order to test Yugi, but instead became tested by Yugi's alter-ego Dark Yugi as his search for Dark Yugi's true soul room as turned into a Shadow Game. Shadi lost the Shadow Game, but was spared by Dark Yugi, who said that their game had really only just begun. When he left Yugi's soul room, he learned that Yugi was unaware of Dark Yugi's existence and returned the Millennium Puzzle to him.[2]
Shadi prepared to put Yoshimori on trial later that day. However after entering his soul room, Shadi learned that Yoshimori was expecting a visit from a group of people, including Yugi. Shadi saw this as his chance to test Yugi and planned a Shadow Game, involving using Yoshimori as an instrument.[3]
The game
Setup
Shadi used his Marionette Design to redecorate Yoshimori's soul room, turning him into a zombie with the intention of making Yugi's friends suffer.[3][4]
Yugi, Sugoroku, Anzu and Jonouchi visited Yoshimori in his laboratory at Domino University, hoping to comfort him after Kanekura's death. They were greeted by the zombified Yoshimori and suspected something was up when he claimed that someone killed Kanekura. Yoshimori then tried to strangle Jonouchi, which Shadi suspected would cause Dark Yugi to emerge.[3] Unable to pull Yoshimori off Jonouchi, Anzu grabbed a globe and walloped him in the face, knocking out three of his teeth and causing him to let go.[4]
As Yoshimori proceeded to chase Yugi and his friends, Shadi thought that possessing Yoshimori alone might not be enough and decided to redecorate Anzu's soul room too.[4]
Yoshimori knocked Sugoroku out and was then lured out of the room by Jonouchi. With everyone else gone, Shadi showed Yugi that he had possessed Anzu. Shadi ordered Dark Yugi to come out and explained that Anzu will only do what he commands her and will even die if he gives the order. With that Dark Yugi appeared.[4]
Everything Shadi needed to set up the game was in the laboratory and he instructed Dark Yugi to meet him on the roof in ten minutes at eight o'clock.[5]
While Shadi and Dark Yugi prepared for the game, Jonouchi was still being chased by Yoshimori. He tried punching him in the face to try and snap him back to normal, but only knocked out more of Yoshimori's teeth.[4]
Shadi suspended a board over the edge of the roof of the university, by tying four ropes to it and stringing them through a fence, where they were tied to ushebti on the opposite side. He stood Anzu on the board and had her hand touch the ropes. A fifth ushebti was tied to the Millennium Key, which the other four ropes ran though. When Dark Yugi arrived Shadi, explained that the four ushebti holding up the board, represented Dark Yugi's heart and would break if a weakness in Dark Yugi's heart was detected. If the four of them would break, Anzu would fall to her death. He explained that the other ushebti represented his own heart and if it broke, the Millennium Key would slide along the ropes to Anzu's hand and if she touches it, she would return to normal. During the explanation, fear was detected in Dark Yugi's heart, causing one of the ushebti to break.[5]
Stage 1
For the first stage of the Shadow Game, the ground cracked as corpses emerged and began grabbing Dark Yugi. The corpses were just an illusion and Dark Yugi needed to find their true nature to pass the stage. Shadi gave him the riddle, "What creeps on the ground and clings to the pillars?" as a hint to find out what the illusion really was.[5]
Although Dark Yugi knew that the corpses were an illusion, he couldn't break free from it. He tried to relax and find the answer the riddle, hoping that would make the illusion go away. He figured that the corpses were what creeps on the ground and he was the pillar. He tried looking at it the other way around, thinking of a pillar and wondering what comes off of it onto the ground. He realized that the answer was a Shadow and that the illusion's true nature was his own shadow. ONce he announced this the illusion disappeared.[5]
