Dungeon Dice Monsters (video game)|''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. | + | '''Hobson''', known as '''Daimon''' (大門 ''Daimon'') in the Japanese version is a character in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!

| − | | |
| − | Using his skills as a torturer, Hobson designed the [[Electric Chair Ride]] part of [[Seto Kaiba (manga)|Kaiba]]'s [[Death-T]] theme park. The ride was designed to make the participants scream, which they must resist doing to avoid being electrocuted with ten million volts.<ref name="d 30" />

| − | Before the [[Kaiba Land grand opening|grand opening]] of [[Kaiba Land]], he welcomed [[Yugi Mutou (manga)|Yugi Mutou]] and [[Katsuya Jonouchi (manga)|Katsuya Jonouchi]] to [[Kaiba Manor]]. He along with other servants greet them and [[Mokuba Kaiba|Mokuba]] when they arrived. He explained that Kaiba would not be attending the pre-celebration for the grand opening of his special project, as he has retired to his room, having worked nonstop for the few days. Mokuba got him to prepare six meals, including two poisoned ones for his rigged game of [[Russian Roulette Dinner]] with Yugi and Jonouchi. When the game backfired and Mokuba was poisoned, the butler came to his aid.<ref name="d 26">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh!|26|ref}}</ref>

| |
| − | The next day, Yugi was forced to take part in [[Death-T]]. The butler, dressed in dark robes, met him and his friends in the [[Horror Zone]] in [[Death T-2]]. His sudden appearance gave Jonouchi a fright. He cackled that if that scared Jonouchi, Jonouchi would not be able to survive the next ride. He was about to lead the group to the [[Electric Chair Ride]], when Yugi recognized him as the butler from Kaiba's mansion. He was hoping that they would not notice, but nevertheless proceeded and took them to a car on a set of rails.<ref name="d 30" />

| − | Yugi, Jonouchi, [[Hiroto Honda (manga)|Honda]] and [[Anzu Mazaki (manga)|Anzu]] took seats on the car and [[Johji]] sat on Anzu's lap. Hobson locked them on, by cuffing their hands to the arm rests and had helmets with voice detectors put on their heads. He explained that they were about to take part on a ride, where they must not scream or they would be electrocuted. He too took part in the game, running the risk of being electrocuted. Having designed the ride and knowing how to avoid screaming, he thought he should be fine and could use his torture skills to make the others scream.<ref name="d 30" />

| − | He subjected the group to scary projections of monsters. Impressed that they managed to avoid screaming, he moved onto the next phase. Mechanical hands came out of the chairs and started to feel and grope the players. Johji worried that Anzu was going to scream, so he got down from her lap and went back to the butler, where he defecated on his lap. Once the butler realized what happened, he screamed out loud and was electrocuted.<ref name="d 30" />

| |
| − | Daimon was one of [[Seto Kaiba (first series anime)|Kaiba]]'s [[The Four Game Masters|Game Masters]]. He required a life-support capsule to stay alive, but was able to leave the capsule for short periods. He and Kaiba were good friends when Kaiba was a child, with Seto bringing him snacks like oranges when Daimon first got sick. He calls Seto "Botchama."
| |
| − | | |
| − | Kaiba released Daimon from the capsule so he could be the fourth opponent to challenge [[Yugi Muto (first series anime)|Yugi]]. By staging an accident, Kaiba was able to lure Yugi to Duel Daimon. If Yugi refused, [[Anzu Mazaki (first series anime)|Anzu]] was to be be devoured by a mechanical dragon. During this Duel, Daimon stated that the reason he Duels for Kaiba is that he believes Kaiba's good side will come out again. Kaiba provides Daimon with a device that allowed him to see Yugi's hand, but Daimon refused to use it. After being defeated, Daimon took Yugi aside and asked him to restore Kaiba's lost innocence.
