Summary
Dark Yugi, Anzu, Jonouchi, and Honda look in horror as an image of Grandpa appears on the television screen, while the old man's physical body lies on the floor, unmoving. A panicked Jonouchi notes that Grandpa's body is still breathing, but shows no other signs of life. Yugi realizes that Grandpa's soul has been sucked into the video tape, and mulls over Pegasus' declaration: if Yugi participates in the upcoming Duelist Kingdom tournament and defeats Pegasus, then Pegasus will reverse the damage he caused.
The next morning finds Little Yugi and his friends at school, clustered gloomily around Yugi's desk. Bakura cheerfully greets the quartet, only to be met with less-than-enthusiastic responses. Bakura soon learns why: sitting on Yugi's desk is a camcorder, with the tape containing Grandpa's soul inside. To Bakura's surprise, the soul of the old man spots him and speaks to him, and Jonouchi informs Bakura that Pegasus, a man with a Millennium item, had trapped Grandpa's soul in the tape.
Grandpa insists that the four not get depressed over his current state, and Jonouchi immediately agrees that brooding will not solve anything. Yugi explains that out of all of them, his "other self" is the most depressed over yesterday's events, as he was the one that had fought, and lost, the duel with Pegasus. After a failed attempt by Jonouchi to "cheer up" Dark Yugi (by yelling at the Millennium Puzzle with a megaphone), the gang discuss Pegasus' conditions, the Duelist Kingdom, and Pegasus' Millennium Eye - Bakura takes a particular interest in the last subject, and reveals (to his classmates' horror) that he still carries around the Millennium Ring. Bakura insists that the evil spirit will not possess him as long as he does not wear the ring, and explains that he also wishes to go to Duelist Kingdom, to discover all the secrets of the Millennium items from Pegasus.
Yugi then excuses himself from the classroom, explaining that his "other self" wishes to be alone. Subsequently, Dark Yugi takes over Yugi's body, and climbs onto the school roof to brood over his loss to Pegasus - with the latter's Millennium item, any hope he has of winning in a duel and reversing Grandpa's conditions are slim at best. He resolves, however, to not run away from Pegasus' challenge, and pledges to journey to Duelist Kingdom and return Grandpa's soul to normal. As the sun begins to set, Little Yugi returns to the game shop, only to find an envelope stuck to the door. He opens the envelope to find several Duel Monsters cards, which he shows to Grandpa's disembodied soul through his camcorder.
The first of the cards is named "Voyage to the Kingdom", showing an image of an ocean liner, with a time and place written beneath - the cards, Yugi and Grandpa realize, are Yugi's invitation tickets to the "Duelist Kingdom" that Pegasus spoke of. The two are then suddenly joined by Jonouchi, Honda, Anzu, and Bakura - Jonouchi, as it turns out, has also been mailed a video tape, and requires Yugi's VCR to watch it (as he does not own one himself). The gang then enter the game shop, and Yugi displays his five invitation cards to them - aside from "Voyage to the Kingdom", also present are "Duelist Kingdom" (representing the island where the tournament will take place), "Duelist's Glove" (representing the Star Chips system), "Glory of the King's Left", and "Glory of the King's Right" (both representing the prizes that the tournament offers).
