'''Hobson''', known as '''Daimon''' in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! first series anime|first series anime]], and simply "Kaiba's Butler" in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! manga|manga]] and the English version of the [[Dungeon Dice Monsters]] video game, is [[Seto Kaiba]]'s faithful retainer, rarely leaving his side. He differs greatly between the various adaptations of the series. In the manga, he is sadistic and cruel; in the first series anime he is shown to have faith in the hope that Kaiba will find his heart; he barely appears in the second series anime, his only appearance of importance being forcing [[Solomon Muto]] to duel his master.

In the first series anime Daimon is one of Kaiba's [[The Four Game Masters|Game Masters]]. He requires a life-support capsule to stay alive. He is able to leave the capsule for short periods, however. He and Seto were good friends when Seto was a child, with Seto bringing him snacks like oranges when Daimon first got sick.
 
  
Seto releases him from the capsule so he can be the fourth opponent to challenge Yugi. By staging an accident, Seto is able to lure Yugi to duel Daimon. If Yugi refuses, Anzu will be devoured by a mechanical dragon. During this duel, Daimon states that the reason that he duels for Seto is that he belives in Seto's good side to come out again. Seto provides Daimon with a device that will allow him to see Yugi's hand, but Daimon refuses to use it. After being defeated, Daimon takes Yugi aside and tells him to restore Seto's lost innocence.
