Notes
- As an homage to the original Japanese series and to celebrate the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime 200th Episode, the opening theme of the English Dub was temporarily changed to a shortened version of OVERLAP (already used in the original Japanese from Episode 190 onwards). OVERLAP was kept for approximately 10 episodes before it was eventually changed back the usual Yu-Gi-Oh! theme music.
- The uses of "Diabound Kernel", "Spirit Illusion", and "Doppelganger Token" can be fairly ambiguous in this episode, because Yami Bakura does not explain each step in detail. If you would like to read or participate in the discussion, please refer to the appropriate discussion pages (Talk:Diabound Kernel, Talk:Spirit Illusion, Talk:Doppelganger Token).
Major Events
- Yami Bakura kidnaps Mokuba and forces his big brother Seto into a Duel.
- In the English dub, Bakura tells Seto his little brother's soul has been sent to the Shadow Realm.
- In the original Japanese, Mokuba is simply unconscious.
- Seto Kaiba Duels Yami Bakura for the first time.
- The Duel follows Battle City rules, but is considered a Shadow Game.
- By destroying Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", Bakura's "Diabound Kernel" is able gain Blue-Eyes's Burst Stream of Destruction attack, said to rival that of a God. Bakura would later transfer that ability to his Diabound and use the attack against Pharaoh Atem's Egyptian God monsters during the Ultimate Shadow Game (Yami No Game in Japanese).
- The Duel Ends in a Draw.
- After the Duel, Yugi & his friends (Joey, Tristan, and Téa) are shown departing to Egypt.
Featured Duels: Yami Bakura vs. Seto Kaiba
Yami Bakura's Turn
- Turns this Duel into a Shadow Game.
- Activates Spell Card "Polymerization": Bakura fuses "The Earl of Demise" and "Headless Knight" from his Hand to form "Duke of Demise" (2000 ATK / 1700 DEF) in Attack Position.
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Summons "Vorse Raider" (1900 ATK / 1200 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Activates Quick-Play Spell Card "Shrink": it halves the ATK of Bakura's "Duke of Demise" for the duration of this turn ("Duke of Demise": 2000 → 1000 ATK / 1700 DEF).
- Uses "Vorse Raider" to attack Bakura's "Duke of Demise".
- Due to its first special ability, "Duke of Demise" cannot be destroyed by battle. Damage calculation, however, is still applied normally (Bakura: 4000 → 3100 Life Points).
Yami Bakura's Turn
- Due to "Duke of Demise's" second special ability, Bakura pays 500 LP (Bakura: 3100 → 2600 Life Points) to keep it in play.
- Tributes "Duke of Demise" to Summon "Diabound Kernel" (1800 ATK / 1200 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Activates Equip Spell Card "Spirit Illusion" and equips it to "Diabound Kernel": Bakura can Special Summon a "Doppelganger Token" with the same ATK, DEF, Level, Attribute, and Type as "Diabound Kernel" ("Doppelganger Token": ? → 1800 ATK / ? → 1200 DEF).
- "Doppelganger Token" also acquires the same exact same effects as the monster equipped by "Spirit Illusion", namely all the effects of "Diabound Kernel".
- Activates his "Doppelganger Token's" special ability, and equips him to Seto's "Vorse Raider". The ATK of Seto's monster is reduced by 1800 ("Vorse Raider": 1900 → 100 ATK / 1200 DEF).
- Uses "Diabound Kernel" to attack & destroy Seto's "Vorse Raider" (Seto: 4000 → 2300 Life Points).
- Bakura's "Doppelganger Token" is Special Summoned back to Bakura's side of the field in Attack Position.
- Sets a card.
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Summons "Lord of D." (1200 ATK / 1100 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Activates Spell Card "The Flute of Summoning Dragon": Seto can Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000 ATK / 2500 DEF) from his Hand in Attack Position.
- At this point, Seto's Summon of "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" triggers a vision of ancient Egyptian past. In fact, Seto Summoning his Blue-Eyes was what Bakura wanted all along (why will be revealed later in this Duel, and in later episodes).
- After the vision ends, Seto uses "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" to attack Bakura's "Diabound Kernel".
- Bakura activates Continuous Trap Cards "Spirit Shield": he removes "Headless Knight" in his Graveyard from play to negate the attack and end Seto's Battle Phase.
- Sets a card.
Yami Bakura's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Pot of Greed" to draw 2 cards.
- Activates Equip Spell Card "Grief Tablet", equipping it to Seto's "Lord of D.": it cannot attack or change its Battle Position, and has all its effects negated. In addition, if "Lord of D." is sent to the Graveyard Seto will receive 500 damage.
- With the protective power of Seto's "Lord of D." gone (its special abilities have been negated), Bakura is now free to target his Blue-Eyes.
- Activates his "Doppelganger Token's" special ability, and equips him to Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". The ATK of Seto's monster is reduced by 1800 ("Blue-Eyes White Dragon": 3000 → 1200 ATK / 2500 DEF).
- Uses "Diabound Kernel" to attack Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".
- Seto activates Trap Card "Attack Guidance Armor", and redirects the attack to his "Lord of D.". "Lord of D." is destroyed (Seto: 2300 → 1700 Life Points).
- The effect of Bakura's "Grief Tablet" activates: since "Lord of D." was sent to the Graveyard, Seto receives 500 damage (Seto: 1700 → 1200 Life Points).
- Seto activates Trap Card "Attack Guidance Armor", and redirects the attack to his "Lord of D.". "Lord of D." is destroyed (Seto: 2300 → 1700 Life Points).
- Sets two cards.
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Card of Demise", drawing until he has five cards in his hand (since he had 1 card, he draws 4 cards). Five turns after "Card of Demise's" activation, Seto must discard his entire hand
- Activates Spell Card "Soul Release": Seto removes "The Earl of Demise" and "Duke of Demise" in Bakura's Graveyard from play.
- Since there are no longer any monsters in Bakura's Graveyard, his "Spirit Shield" is destroyed.
- Activates Spell Card "Silent Doom": Seto Special Summons "Vorse Raider" (1900 ATK / 1200 DEF) back from his Graveyard in Defense Position. It cannot attack.
- Tributes "Vorse Raider" and his weakened "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" to Summon another "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000 ATK / 2500 DEF) in Attack Position.
- Uses "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" to attack & destroy Bakura's "Diabound Kernel" (Bakura: 2600 → 1400 Life Points)
- Bakura activates Trap Card "Rebirth Tablet": he Special Summons "Diabound Kernel" (1800 ATK / 1200 DEF) back from his Graveyard in Attack Position (NOTE: "Rebirth Tablet" is very similar to real-life Trap Card "Time Machine").
- Activates Trap Card "Mirror Tablet": half the Original ATK of Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (the one that destroyed "Diabound Kernel" this turn and is currently on the field) is added to Bakura's "Diabound Kernel", i.e. it gains 3000 / 2 = 1500 ATK ("Diabound Kernel": 1800 → 3300 ATK / 1200 DEF) (NOTE: in the English Dub, the effect of "Mirror Tablet" is wrongly translated to target the monster Seto Tributed earlier this turn; in the original Japanese, the correct target is identified as Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" currently on the field).
Yami Bakura's Turn
- Uses "Diabound Kernel" to attack & destroy Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (Seto: 1200 → 900 Life Points) (NOTE: by destroying Seto's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", Bakura's "Diabound Kernel" is able gain Blue-Eyes's Burst Stream of Destruction attack, said to rival that of a God. Bakura would later transfer that ability to his Diabound and use the attack against Pharaoh Atem's Egyptian God monsters during the Ultimate Shadow Game (Yami No Game in Japanese)).
Seto Kaiba's Turn
- Activates Spell Card "Monster Reborn" to Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000 ATK / 2500 DEF) back from the Graveyard in Attack Position.
- At this point, the Sun rises and Bakura announces he has to leave. He gives Seto his Millennium Eye, and tells him to come to Egypt if he wants to know more about the history of "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". After a flash, Bakura disappears.
- The Duel ends in a draw (Bakura: 1400 Life Points; Seto: 900 Life Points).
