"'''"Spiritual Awakening"'''", known as "'''"Dark Bakura on the Move"''' " in the Japanese version, is the two-hundredth episode of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (second series anime)|''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' second series anime]]. It first aired in Japan on April 14, 2004 and in the United States on October 22, 2005. As an homage to the original Japanese series and to celebrate the second series anime's two-hundredth episode, the opening theme of the English Dub was temporarily changed to a shortened version of [[OVERLAP]] (already used in the original Japanese from [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 190|episode 190]] onwards). OVERLAP was kept for approximately 10 episodes before it was eventually changed back the usual [[Yu-Gi-Oh! theme]] music.{{Citation needed}}
{{Episode summary|After having a confrontation with [[Yami Yugi]] and discussing their pasts, [[Yami Bakura]] challenges [[Seto Kaiba]] to a [[Duel]].}}
== Summary ==
[[Yugi Muto]] confronts [[Ryo BakuraRyou]], who scolds him for almost letting [[Weevil Underwood]] and [[Rex Raptor]] run off with the [[Egyptian God]] cards. Yugi checks that they're still in the box along with the [[Millennium Items]]. Bakura tells him that he'll eventually return the [[Millennium Ring]] he has taken. This causes Yugi to realize he is talking to Bakura's dark personality.
Yugi wonders how much [[Yami Bakura]] knows about the Millennium Items: Yugi insofar so far knows that, somewhere in Egypt, within an underground temple, there's a "Tablet of the Pharaoh's Memories" in which the 7 Millennium Items must be gathered. He questions aloud if Yami Bakura knows what'll happen once they're gathered. Yami Bakura identifies its location in the village of "[[Kul Elna]]". It's a relic, or artifact, which links the living world and the afterlife. When the Items are place there, he states that "the Door of the Realm of the Dead shall open." He inwardly thinks that his "true goal" lies beyond it. Yugi assumes that its opening shall allow the Pharaoh's soul to go back there. Yami Bakura congratulates him and claims he'll help him.
Suddenly, [[Yami Yugi]] comes out and demands to know his intentions. When pressed for an answer, he acknowledges being the same as Yami: a soul sealed in the Millennium Ring for 5,000 years. Yami demands of him to reveal his true nature, but Yami Bakura claims having forgotten it as well. It may be that the answer is the Pharaoh's World of Memories. He then suggests settling their pending scores in a more suitable arena; the World of Memories. Yami Yugi questions him more, and Yami Bakura states that if they peel through the layers of enigma surrounding Yami's heart, they'll reach his "World of Memories" and, then, the "Ultimate Dark Game" will take place. He goes on saying that Yami Yugi "began" it, so that's why they must end it. Yami Yugi thinks about it and then accepts the challenge. Yami Bakura looks pleased: he claims that, once the "door of memories" is opened, the Game will begin. He's looking forward to it. While walking off, he thinks that he must make some "preparations" to win the "Ultimate Dark Game".
Later, [[Seto Kaiba]] is working extra hours in his office when the light goes out and Yami Bakura shows up on the computer's monitor. Yami Bakura lifts an unconscious [[Mokuba Kaiba|Mokuba]] off the ground by his neck and then throws him to the ground. Yami Bakura then challenges Seto to a Duel before the monitor shuts off. Kaiba changes into his [[Battle City]] clothing and goes out into the roof, where he finds Mokuba's unconscious body. He sets him apart and the Duel begins.
Yami Bakura displays an intriguing Deck which seems to be themed around the ancient Egypt era's rituals. He uses a Monster named "[[Diabound Kernel (anime)|Diabound Kernel]]" to steal the [[attack name|Burst Stream of Destruction]] attack of a "[[Blue-Eyes White Dragon (anime)|Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]", which he claims is the only thing which can stand up to the Gods. Seto then experiences a vision similar to the ones he had during the [[Battle City Finals]].
When dawn begins to emerge, Yami Bakura announces that he must be going: he hands Kaiba the [[Millennium Eye]] and asks him if he wants to learn more about the bond he shares with "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". He then departs the scene.
Yugi is ready to depart but his friends catch up with him again: they won't let him go alone. They climb a plane and head towards Egypt.
