In the first part of the game, one must find a partner. During the first playthrough, the player may select [[Jaden Yuki]], [[Syrus Truesdale]], [[Chumley Huffington]], [[Bastion Misawa]], [[Chazz Princeton]], [[Alexis Rhodes]] or [[Zane Truesdale]] as a partner. However, in order to convince them to team with you, one must build a relationship with them. Whenever a conversation is prompted, you are given four options - to talk about "Duels", "The Academy", "Hobbies" or "Rumors". During each conversation one of the first three choices is randomly selected to harm affection, while the other two will improve it. This can be avoided by getting [[Pharaoh]] to follow you, should he be with you, all three choices will yield the best result. Affection can also be increased by giving the characters sandwiches that can be purchased at Duel Academy's card shop. Everyone has different tastes, though all seven characters love the [[Golden Eggwich]]. Affection is measured via a heart meter. Once six hearts are obtained, the character will offer to become your partner. Filling the meter completely to seven hearts will result in the character gifting the player with cards that are hard to acquire elsewhere. One may attempt to get as many characters to six hearts as possible, and it is possible to get all seven to full before ending part one.
