I remember when they re-released this movie in theaters a few years ago. When this scene happened 42:58 , every single person in the audience, which was only comprised of adults, started laughing hysterically for the rest of the film. Also, at the end of the movie, they showed an early viewing of the first episode of Vrains. The only problem is, they didnt specify this anywhere before or after the movie. So everyone in the theater thought it was the longest, weirdest after credits scene ever.
@rank10ygo To summarize the amount of psychic damage this dealt, I overheard someone in the audience, who had no clue what was happening, ask their friend when Yusaku showed up: "Is that Yugis kid???"
I read this comment multiple times thinking it was a shitpost, until I saw the word “re-released”. What a top quality story, with 100% sincerity made me chuckle. Showing Vrains as a post-credit isn’t a *bad* idea, but somehow it sounds like an awful idea to go in without any heads up.
My favorite part about this movie is the fact that Kaiba technically wins in it but they forgot Paladin of White Dragon is a dragon type monster when calculating Shining Dragon's attack points, which is enough of a difference that Yugi should have lost
@@GalletasdeOvlea-q8s neither one were in his deck. Which is weird because if his deck was designed to quickly call out the Gods, he would benefit from graveyard effects.
and then the exact opposite happens where they forgot how return from the different dimension works, and had kaiba used it he would've only gotten two dark clowns back, thus losing the duel.
"Do you guys have any cards that talk to you whenever you draw them?" No, but when I XYZ summon any of the Rail Cannons, I start hearing chants of "KILL KILL KILL" from them.

Honestly, Rata's right. Speaking from the perspective of someone who's currently writing a Yugioh fanfic, Duels are really hard to write. Like, I grossly underestimated how difficult they'd be to do. It makes me thankful that it took until Chapter 4 before we saw a single duel, and Chapter 11 before a second. Because it's not easy to write a Duel that is engaging, entertaining and era-accurate, especially not when you're trying to *avoid* having your protagonist feel overpowered (which feels like a rarity in fanfiction, lemme tell you).
Go Rush actually has an episode featuring the characters making an anime (well, character, as a trash goblin ended up doing everything) and part of it involves duel scripting, where they look at cards, deck structures, probability, and other things. It's not easy, even for a show that rigidly follows a structure.
@@bigjohnsbreakfastlog5819 Writing fanfiction has given me so much more respect for every Yugioh anime, because making engaging Duels is not easy. Like, I have decklists planned out for every major character, as well as villains, a handful of one-ofs, and side characters. And I have the luxury of not having to have it be a weekly series, and not having to feature Dueling every episode. Worrying about my OC's decks being the same every Duel is a serious concern of mine, as well as each deck using the same cookie cutter staples. Yes, it might be more accurate to the TCG, but it's also boring and makes deck feel like they lack their own uniqueness. Although having to try and make a playable vehicroid's deck was like pulling fucking teeth.
Funny thing is that the guy responsible for scripting duels has stated that salamangreat of all decks was one of the hardest decks to write for because the pure version of the deck was so strong that it made it near impossible to write him losing or even nearly losing
@@thestain8004 ugh, not looking forward to that either. Making my cast feel powerful, while not so powerful that them being beaten feels unsatisfying is a chore. I literally have a whole-ass spreadsheet detailing how many times each major character wins and loses, to make sure that even if they do lose, they at least have a respectable handful of wins under their belt, while the losses still feel both entertaining and believable. In a fic where fucking Sho Marufuji is a major character. I have to make vehicroids seem believably strong.
I remember seeing this movie with my grandma and loving it so much, especially remembering getting Blue Eyes Shining Dragon from the pack. It’s so bad, but still, I can’t help but love it.
I like how Rata, a guy who speaks English as a second language, has a better understanding of English grammar than the people that wrote the script for this movie.
@@sho9585 no. 4Kids re-write everything and basically changed the entire story whenever they “localise” an anime. That’s why the dub of the Yugioh series is so butchered compared to the Japanese version.
@@TheGuyWhoIsSitting that’s not their job though, their job was to bring the anime to an overseas audience but there’s so much censorship and nonsense in the 4Kids version it’s not even the same show anymore. Imagine if a company was brought on to dub Attack On Titan and instead of being what we know they turned it into a goofy comedy with all the violence censored, it’d be awful (not saying Yugioh is as violent as AoT, I’m just saying). Like the “shadow realm” for example, that’s fake. That’s something 4Kids made up, whenever someone mentions sending someone to the shadow realm that’s just 4Kids censoring death. They did the same thing for Dragonball Z too, in the 4Kids dub whenever someone is going to die they say they’re “fading into a different realm” for example when Chiaotzu is going to self destruct to try an kill Nappa they have him say “I’m going to try and take him to a different dimension” 4Kids butcher everything they touch.
This movie has a credited Egyptology Consultant, which genuinely makes me wonder if the Egyptian Chanting is real??? Because whatever consultation they had sure wasn't about whether Anubis is a muscle dude who's weak to this one dagger and is really into sphinx-summoning pyramids
36:18 Apparently the Egyptian spoken in the movie is actually pretty accurate with only a few made up words since we don't know *everything* about Egyptian. The word 'ankh' was (to our best knowledge) the word for "life" and "live" so it wasn't a random insert but Anubis commanding the mummies to live.
I gotta commend them for putting in the effort for finding legitimate Egyptian words. They easily could’ve spoken random words and no one would’ve questioned it
That is the most random unimportant detail for them to put effort into, when the rest of the movie is so slapdash. Who wants to bet someone on the production team was into Egyptology?
@@TheTrueLeafless Oh or 'Ou' is an honorific, denoting 'king' in Japanese. Yugi translates to 'Game' add 'ou' or 'oh' to the end, and it becomes 'Game King/King of Games' Kuriboh bit his crown
I just realizes something. When Kaiba summoned BEUD, Slifer’s mandatory effect should have activated. And apparently in this movie, Obelisk infinite ATK is a quick effect since it’s still in Kaiba’s turn.
I actually played against a guy in a locals trying to run Pyramid Of Light and the Sphinxes. You know what's better than having a Dagger of Fate against Anubis? SAKURETSU ARMOR.
The best way to run the Sphinxes is to run Uriah at the same time. That way, you have a way to send the Pyramid to the Graveyard, and you get Uriah out as well.
If this was long enough ago they actually were fringe viable. Back when they first came out and for a very short while after they were actually a viable rogue deck. The tactic was using Heavy Storm and simmilar effects to pop your own Pyramid of Light and then OTKO your opponent with Thenian the Great Sphinx + Megamorph. It was by no means a top meta deck, but actually was a totally viable rogue deck all those many years ago way, way back in 200X.
16:20 my favorite thing Yuga from Sevens ever did was lose a duel where if he lost he had to stop trying to help a friend that was in need, and then went “yeah im still gonna help him” and then yeeted.
I had just randomly switched to jp Netflix to watch something, pulled up yt, and was reminded of this gem. 4kids are too scared to release this from gay baby jail
Does Konami plan to retain the Pyramid of Light finally and needs more promotion for it or how the hell did this one return from the bottom of RUclips copyright hell?
rata said on twitter that the claim just... went away on its own. so its very likely this'll be taken down again at some point, enjoy it while it lasts.
@@neooreos1263 I think with Copyright claims, they expire if you contest it and the holder doesn't respond, so in some cases the Rights holder just stops caring after a while and lets it sit, especially if it was claimed by a bot or procedure and not a major case with human attention. It might have a shot staying up if that's the case
I never got why from kaibas perspective he thought pegasus was lying about having two cards to beat the gods, one of them literally says "destroy the god cards" and the other is blue eyes shining dragon... I guess he was butthurt he hid a blue eyes card from him.
Because he only made Shining Dragon. It was Anubis who snuck Pyramid of Light in there. Thats why Pegasus was claiming he only made one, and Kaiba figured he had been lying as a result.
@JacksonJinn I think you're misunderstanding my comment. Yeah, pegasus only knows about the dragon. But from kaibas pov he shouldn't think pegasus was lying. He should think the pyramid is the card he was referring to.
I wondered the exact same thing 20 years ago as a kid. Blue Eyes Shining Dragon is just a monster with an effect that can destroy a monster. Nothing specifically mentioning the God cards or offering any specific counters to them. If Blue Eyes Shining Dragon is a special God card destroyer because it can effect destroy monsters, then so is Man-Eater Bug.
Yeah. There is nothing inherent about Shining Dragon that's a counter to the god cards. It's weird how Kaiba just assumed that was the card Pegasus meant for him to take. But apparently, he assumed correctly because the Pyramid of Light was added by Anubis.
@@justanothergamer9570 But its destruction effect killed Anubis which had strong enough magic powers to beat the gods, so maybe there is something special to it, after all, this is supposed to be a world where a card's strength and abilities are related to a spirit behind it.
i always wondered why this movie looked like crap where even the short special "bonds beyond times" looked much better, but was lazy to ever look it up so to know this movie is just like that capsule monsters season thing, doesnt surprise me in the least lol
My favourite part would have to be Anubis using Inferno Tempest & Fallout to nuke Yugi & Kaiba's decks but Kaiba just picks up Blue-Eyes Shinning Dragon, like it was nothing. So basically all Amubis did was knock their cards off the table. It just gets funnier the more you think about it.
@@SakuraAvalon I like to imagine the even funnier idea that it worked since Inferno Tempest stops you from playing YOUR monsters, so they cheat by having Yugi use Kaiba's Blue-Eyes instead of Kaiba using it.
@@papershadow Well, I tried to look up a ruling for if another player could use the same card in a 'Once Per Duel' effect, and got nothing. What I did find is apparently hard once per turns are locked to you, so if your opponent got control of the card, they could use it in spite of the 'once per turn' clause.
Not only did that Kaiba trap against pegasus come out not too long ago, but because it's an exclusive to that one set that came in an attache case, it's like 100 dollars per copy lmao
Holy fuck I just realized that Blue Eyes Shining Dragon was the prototype for cybernetic dragons with Konami orbs that would define the future of Yugioh aesthetics. Thanks Blue Eyes Shining Dragon: now I hate you even more.
Hey, check it out! At 27:42, they hadn't released Queen's Knight or Magician's Valkyria in English so they had to poorly edit their card names in a non-matching font!
I agree with Rata on how hard it would be to make fun duels using every real card. I’m currently streaming a yugioh tabletop and keep the decks fresh and fun is my biggest challenge
I know people have mixed opinions on YGOTAS but LK's Pyramid of Light abridged is still pretty funny. "Behold, the future. Since none of you will live to see it." *Plays the GX Intro*
I think that LittleKuriboh has generally made funnier episodes in recent years because there's some clever writing and not mostly just memes and references.
As far as I can remember, the only time Yugi's post-Battle City popularity was explored in the manga was the non-canon (yet still excellent) Yu-Gi-Oh R Volume 3 bonus chapter.
Shocked Rata did not bring up the fact that Kabia legit won this duel when he attacked sorcerer of dark magic with shining dragon but the production team forgot how many dragons Kaiba had in grave so Yugi lives with 200 lp
The same duel has Kaiba use Card of Demise to draw 5 with 5 turns to use the cards drawn, and you expect them to get the other cards right? Also Yugi special summons Ra with Return from the Different Dimension which Ra can't be special summoned (unless you use the newer support that lets you special summon Ra but only with Monster Reborn, and only from the GY) I know the TCG/OCG versions of the God Cards weren't printed until 2012 for whatever reason, but still. Also Also, Blue Eyes Shining Dragon couldn't be summoned in the TCG until way too late when we finally got BEUD... "It never happened for 5,000 years, then it finally did!"
@@TheGuyWhoIsSittingRa in the anime can absolutely be special summoned. The Yugi vs Marik duel is ruined because Marik's whole strategy is just spamming Monster Reborn as many times as possible to revive Ra in the hopes he'll one shot him. It's VERY out of character for the "make my opponent suffer as long as possible with torture and burn damage" guy.
49:58 This feels like when a TTRPG player tries to do the cool thing to solve the party's current predicament but whiffs the roll, but the GM just lets it work anyway because they've been at this for way too long and everyone just wants the encounter wrapped up already before they have to spend yet another session on it.
11:55 what messes me up as if he bottled the wine in 1982 then that means the card had to have been invented around or before that time which makes you wonder how long cards have existed in this universe
Once upon a time i saw a notification for this video. I thought "Oh cool, gotta watch it when i get home!" By then, it was already unavailable. I dont know why, but after 2 years this has appeared in my recommended section. Never used a VPN in my life. RUclips works in misterious ways
Thank you RUclips copyright bot or Rata's crackpot legal team. I use my watch later Playlist as a sort of podcast at work and I put this video on it. Well for some reason my version of the app kept the thumbnail as the picture of the whole Playlist because this was first on the list and I couldn't remove it. So now that I've been able to watch the funny RUclips yugioh man I can get a little change of scenery.
so something that genuinely bothers me about this movie is that a lot of media gets anubis wrong, portraying him as a sinister god of death, when he just isn't. it's kinda like what disney did with hades. normally this is such a common thing that it wouldn't bother me that another thing messed this up, but the yu-gi-oh manga actually represented anubis spot on, so the movie calling its villain anubis unironically makes the franchise worse, since even though it's not canon to anything, it's still gonna be the first thing a lot of people think of if you said "anubis in yu-gi-oh" kinda like how a lot of fans will start thinking of the capsule monsters anime spinoff rather than capsule monsters chess.
This was originally the only way to obtain Slifer the Sky Dragon in the TCG. Obelisk the Tormentor was a Shounen Jump subscription promo and the Winged Dragon of Ra was included in an Xbox YGO game.
I would like to remind everyone this movie came out before the Battle City Arc even ended in the US and that the release of the movie and the pack that came with it was the ONLY way to obtain Ultimate Dragon for the longest time in the TCG.
...No it wasn't. The movie pack was Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon, Watapon, Sorcerer of Dark Magic, and Pyramid of Light. Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon wasn't released in the TCG until, like, 2006 or something.
FINALLY! Still salty that I got 10 seconds in when it got uploaded, left for dinner, returned and found that it was taken down. So glad it's finally back
49:29 since you brought it up. As much as I love the yugioh card game/show would never want it to change, part of me always sorta wanted to see what the series would had been like if they continued with the original intent/pre DM. If you don’t know original Yu-Gi-Oh! wasn’t all about card games but just games/board games in general (with duel monsters being their version of magic the gathering). Your comment on the crew really rings true because I felt the gang were a lot more active during that time/versatile in what they could do. tea was a dancer so she was great at handling rhythm games & such, and while Joey & Tristan weren’t the smartest they were great at physical games like laser tag or ones that involve taking risks, they had opportunities to be active in the conflict. (Plus the constant talk of friendship fits thematically since board games at their core are meant to be with friends. I still love the series regardless and it’s been a big part of my life, but it’s one of those things that make you wonder
Due to the fact that Pegasus mentions being retired in this movie, the 4kids dub keeps saying that he's retired throughout season 4 and the entirety of GX despite the fact that we see him working in his office
Ngl, Anubis showing up in the dream/vision of the future, grabbing Kaiba by his head, screaming about Light and Dark, made him seem far more intimidating than he really was as a kid Not to mention, the creepy chanting in what I assume is Egyptian or a similar dialect

@@thestain8004 ugh, not looking forward to that either. Making my cast feel powerful, while not so powerful that them being beaten feels unsatisfying is a chore. I literally have a whole-ass spreadsheet detailing how many times each major character wins and loses, to make sure that even if they do lose, they at least have a respectable handful of wins under their belt, while the losses still feel both entertaining and believable.
In a fic where fucking Sho Marufuji is a major character. I have to make vehicroids seem believably strong.

I remember seeing this movie with my grandma and loving it so much, especially remembering getting Blue Eyes Shining Dragon from the pack. It’s so bad, but still, I can’t help but love it.
I think I saw it in theaters specifically for the pack lol
I really wanted that dragon, being the Blue-Eyes obsessed Seto Kaiba reincarnation that I am. LOL.
Me just getting wattapon. "I feel cheated"
yeah, i love shining dragon too, kinda wish they retrain it, with like, tribute a blue-eyes fusion monster to special summon this card or something.
@@yorukaze1400 Blue-Eyes has a lot of big beaters but not super finisher so a Shining retrain could help
I like how Rata, a guy who speaks English as a second language, has a better understanding of English grammar than the people that wrote the script for this movie.
isn't the one who wrote the script is japanese and english version is just translation of the original japanese script?
@@sho9585 no. 4Kids re-write everything and basically changed the entire story whenever they “localise” an anime.
That’s why the dub of the Yugioh series is so butchered compared to the Japanese version.
@@jk844100 I dunno, 4Kids still wrote an entertaining adaptation. GX is goofy but I love it.
@@TheGuyWhoIsSitting that’s not their job though, their job was to bring the anime to an overseas audience but there’s so much censorship and nonsense in the 4Kids version it’s not even the same show anymore.
Imagine if a company was brought on to dub Attack On Titan and instead of being what we know they turned it into a goofy comedy with all the violence censored, it’d be awful (not saying Yugioh is as violent as AoT, I’m just saying).
Like the “shadow realm” for example, that’s fake. That’s something 4Kids made up, whenever someone mentions sending someone to the shadow realm that’s just 4Kids censoring death.
They did the same thing for Dragonball Z too, in the 4Kids dub whenever someone is going to die they say they’re “fading into a different realm” for example when Chiaotzu is going to self destruct to try an kill Nappa they have him say “I’m going to try and take him to a different dimension”
4Kids butcher everything they touch.
@@sho9585 Pyramid of Light was entirely a 4kids production.
This movie has a credited Egyptology Consultant, which genuinely makes me wonder if the Egyptian Chanting is real??? Because whatever consultation they had sure wasn't about whether Anubis is a muscle dude who's weak to this one dagger and is really into sphinx-summoning pyramids
36:18 Apparently the Egyptian spoken in the movie is actually pretty accurate with only a few made up words since we don't know *everything* about Egyptian. The word 'ankh' was (to our best knowledge) the word for "life" and "live" so it wasn't a random insert but Anubis commanding the mummies to live.
I gotta commend them for putting in the effort for finding legitimate Egyptian words. They easily could’ve spoken random words and no one would’ve questioned it
That is the most random unimportant detail for them to put effort into, when the rest of the movie is so slapdash. Who wants to bet someone on the production team was into Egyptology?
@@CantusTropus In the credits, they had a consultant for Egyptian info, but Dan Green has gone on record to be into Egyptian myths.
I too, scream the name of a children's card game when I feel in danger.
No...he yelled his own name and added an "OH"...probably because the Kurib-OH actually bit down on something off frame.
@@TheTrueLeafless Oh or 'Ou' is an honorific, denoting 'king' in Japanese. Yugi translates to 'Game' add 'ou' or 'oh' to the end, and it becomes 'Game King/King of Games'

I just realizes something. When Kaiba summoned BEUD, Slifer’s mandatory effect should have activated.
And apparently in this movie, Obelisk infinite ATK is a quick effect since it’s still in Kaiba’s turn.

I actually played against a guy in a locals trying to run Pyramid Of Light and the Sphinxes.
You know what's better than having a Dagger of Fate against Anubis?
SAKURETSU ARMOR.
The best way to run the Sphinxes is to run Uriah at the same time. That way, you have a way to send the Pyramid to the Graveyard, and you get Uriah out as well.
If this was long enough ago they actually were fringe viable. Back when they first came out and for a very short while after they were actually a viable rogue deck. The tactic was using Heavy Storm and simmilar effects to pop your own Pyramid of Light and then OTKO your opponent with Thenian the Great Sphinx + Megamorph. It was by no means a top meta deck, but actually was a totally viable rogue deck all those many years ago way, way back in 200X.

16:20 my favorite thing Yuga from Sevens ever did was lose a duel where if he lost he had to stop trying to help a friend that was in need, and then went “yeah im still gonna help him” and then yeeted.
Himself or his friend?

Reminder that you should watch it
I had just randomly switched to jp Netflix to watch something, pulled up yt, and was reminded of this gem. 4kids are too scared to release this from gay baby jail
As a kid I always liked the pegasus vs kaiba duel better than the MAIN duel
Does Konami plan to retain the Pyramid of Light finally and needs more promotion for it or how the hell did this one return from the bottom of RUclips copyright hell?
Maybe the gods of fate needed a way to meme support into existence, and they got lazy.
rata said on twitter that the claim just... went away on its own. so its very likely this'll be taken down again at some point, enjoy it while it lasts.
@@neooreos1263 we must download it and spread it across nations
@@neooreos1263 I think with Copyright claims, they expire if you contest it and the holder doesn't respond, so in some cases the Rights holder just stops caring after a while and lets it sit, especially if it was claimed by a bot or procedure and not a major case with human attention.
It might have a shot staying up if that's the case
I never got why from kaibas perspective he thought pegasus was lying about having two cards to beat the gods, one of them literally says "destroy the god cards" and the other is blue eyes shining dragon...
I guess he was butthurt he hid a blue eyes card from him.
Because he only made Shining Dragon. It was Anubis who snuck Pyramid of Light in there. Thats why Pegasus was claiming he only made one, and Kaiba figured he had been lying as a result.
@JacksonJinn I think you're misunderstanding my comment. Yeah, pegasus only knows about the dragon. But from kaibas pov he shouldn't think pegasus was lying. He should think the pyramid is the card he was referring to.
I wondered the exact same thing 20 years ago as a kid. Blue Eyes Shining Dragon is just a monster with an effect that can destroy a monster. Nothing specifically mentioning the God cards or offering any specific counters to them. If Blue Eyes Shining Dragon is a special God card destroyer because it can effect destroy monsters, then so is Man-Eater Bug.
Yeah. There is nothing inherent about Shining Dragon that's a counter to the god cards. It's weird how Kaiba just assumed that was the card Pegasus meant for him to take. But apparently, he assumed correctly because the Pyramid of Light was added by Anubis.
@@justanothergamer9570 But its destruction effect killed Anubis which had strong enough magic powers to beat the gods, so maybe there is something special to it, after all, this is supposed to be a world where a card's strength and abilities are related to a spirit behind it.
I cannot believe he can no longer mention Blue-Eyes on the channel.
Wait till he has to report the Structure Deck
...what?
A reference to the Twitter post he made when releasing this video back up.
6:05 Kaiba is just a PNG as Blue-Eyes moves forward
i always wondered why this movie looked like crap where even the short special "bonds beyond times" looked much better, but was lazy to ever look it up
so to know this movie is just like that capsule monsters season thing, doesnt surprise me in the least lol
but at least the furries got excited when spinx staleia(???) showed up on screen lol

Finally, this video got off the forbidden list
Rata played monster reborn, and summoned from the RUclips graveyard
According to the credits there was an egyptology consultant on this movie lmao
Apparently Anubis was actually speaking Ancient Egyptian.
My favourite part would have to be Anubis using Inferno Tempest & Fallout to nuke Yugi & Kaiba's decks but Kaiba just picks up Blue-Eyes Shinning Dragon, like it was nothing. So basically all Amubis did was knock their cards off the table. It just gets funnier the more you think about it.
So he did a Boogie and flipped the table?
The power of Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon allows it to negate the part where it can't be used for the rest of the duel.
@@SakuraAvalon I like to imagine the even funnier idea that it worked since Inferno Tempest stops you from playing YOUR monsters, so they cheat by having Yugi use Kaiba's Blue-Eyes instead of Kaiba using it.
@@papershadow Well, I tried to look up a ruling for if another player could use the same card in a 'Once Per Duel' effect, and got nothing.
What I did find is apparently hard once per turns are locked to you, so if your opponent got control of the card, they could use it in spite of the 'once per turn' clause.
Not only did that Kaiba trap against pegasus come out not too long ago, but because it's an exclusive to that one set that came in an attache case, it's like 100 dollars per copy lmao
Holy fuck I just realized that Blue Eyes Shining Dragon was the prototype for cybernetic dragons with Konami orbs that would define the future of Yugioh aesthetics.
Thanks Blue Eyes Shining Dragon: now I hate you even more.
I'm so glad that I got to see this before it gets copyright struck again. Shine on you crazy Serbian.
"putting a brick on his deck" almost made me fall from the chair
Hey, check it out! At 27:42, they hadn't released Queen's Knight or Magician's Valkyria in English so they had to poorly edit their card names in a non-matching font!

"Kids are smart enough to need good media!"
Also kids: "The Yugioh movie is amazing!"
I agree with Rata on how hard it would be to make fun duels using every real card. I’m currently streaming a yugioh tabletop and keep the decks fresh and fun is my biggest challenge
I know people have mixed opinions on YGOTAS but LK's Pyramid of Light abridged is still pretty funny.
"Behold, the future. Since none of you will live to see it." *Plays the GX Intro*

SBN3’s YuGiOh dub was infinitely funnier
I think that LittleKuriboh has generally made funnier episodes in recent years because there's some clever writing and not mostly just memes and references.
Yugi casually forgetting about slifers effect
Good point
Imagine if after Kaiba left Pegasus looked at the cards and said, “that’s weird, he took the awful Blue Eyes card but left Mystic Mine.”
Rata singing "Your not me" I can die happy now
Don't worry, I don't think Konami is trying to keep tight hold of their IP for Pyramid of fuckin Light
But they are definitely spiteful enough to take it down anyway.
@@1111-e4p Can't argue with that.
And then 4K Media took it down anyway.
@@1111-e4p Well it looks like you were rjght
Aged like milk
As far as I can remember, the only time Yugi's post-Battle City popularity was explored in the manga was the non-canon (yet still excellent) Yu-Gi-Oh R Volume 3 bonus chapter.
AKA, the duel that gave us Gorz.
Shocked Rata did not bring up the fact that Kabia legit won this duel when he attacked sorcerer of dark magic with shining dragon but the production team forgot how many dragons Kaiba had in grave so Yugi lives with 200 lp
The same duel has Kaiba use Card of Demise to draw 5 with 5 turns to use the cards drawn, and you expect them to get the other cards right? Also Yugi special summons Ra with Return from the Different Dimension which Ra can't be special summoned (unless you use the newer support that lets you special summon Ra but only with Monster Reborn, and only from the GY) I know the TCG/OCG versions of the God Cards weren't printed until 2012 for whatever reason, but still. Also Also, Blue Eyes Shining Dragon couldn't be summoned in the TCG until way too late when we finally got BEUD... "It never happened for 5,000 years, then it finally did!"
@@TheGuyWhoIsSitting It's anime duel stuff. Card of Demise and the various God Cards weren't printed until quite some time after this film was made.
@@TheGuyWhoIsSittingRa in the anime can absolutely be special summoned. The Yugi vs Marik duel is ruined because Marik's whole strategy is just spamming Monster Reborn as many times as possible to revive Ra in the hopes he'll one shot him. It's VERY out of character for the "make my opponent suffer as long as possible with torture and burn damage" guy.
49:58 This feels like when a TTRPG player tries to do the cool thing to solve the party's current predicament but whiffs the roll, but the GM just lets it work anyway because they've been at this for way too long and everyone just wants the encounter wrapped up already before they have to spend yet another session on it.
As a DM, Mood. Big mood.
11:55 what messes me up as if he bottled the wine in 1982 then that means the card had to have been invented around or before that time which makes you wonder how long cards have existed in this universe
Right lol if he's 25 he would have been a baby. Maybe it's his family's company and why they are rixh and he changed the label later
Once upon a time i saw a notification for this video. I thought "Oh cool, gotta watch it when i get home!" By then, it was already unavailable.

39:22 Nice of the princess to invite us over for a Children's Card Game, eh Luigi?
As a Macedonian I can tell you Ratas slavic humor is on full display here
2:50 I know you joke about Grandpa's shop being called GAME but in the UK our GameStop equivalent is literally just called GAME.
so something that genuinely bothers me about this movie is that a lot of media gets anubis wrong, portraying him as a sinister god of death, when he just isn't. it's kinda like what disney did with hades.
normally this is such a common thing that it wouldn't bother me that another thing messed this up, but the yu-gi-oh manga actually represented anubis spot on, so the movie calling its villain anubis unironically makes the franchise worse, since even though it's not canon to anything, it's still gonna be the first thing a lot of people think of if you said "anubis in yu-gi-oh"
kinda like how a lot of fans will start thinking of the capsule monsters anime spinoff rather than capsule monsters chess.
The most expensive card commercial from 4Kids.
Many years later and after reading the manga, the nostalgia has fallen off a lot for this movie.
It's morbin' time
9:30 glad to see the Foo Fighters canonically exist in the Yu-Gi-Oh universe
There’s a “manga” of this movie, but it’s just the movie in the form of manga panels. At least they were in color.
This was originally the only way to obtain Slifer the Sky Dragon in the TCG. Obelisk the Tormentor was a Shounen Jump subscription promo and the Winged Dragon of Ra was included in an Xbox YGO game.

So glad it's finally back
Time to realize how much the translation team of yugioh and the higher ups don't understand it
49:29 since you brought it up.
As much as I love the yugioh card game/show would never want it to change, part of me always sorta wanted to see what the series would had been like if they continued with the original intent/pre DM. If you don’t know original Yu-Gi-Oh! wasn’t all about card games but just games/board games in general (with duel monsters being their version of magic the gathering). Your comment on the crew really rings true because I felt the gang were a lot more active during that time/versatile in what they could do. tea was a dancer so she was great at handling rhythm games & such, and while Joey & Tristan weren’t the smartest they were great at physical games like laser tag or ones that involve taking risks, they had opportunities to be active in the conflict. (Plus the constant talk of friendship fits thematically since board games at their core are meant to be with friends.
I still love the series regardless and it’s been a big part of my life, but it’s one of those things that make you wonder
Wow, this must've disappeared really fast the first time, I never had a clue it ever existed. Your intro was prescient.
Holy shit, i'm glad this video got brought back. This and the GX watchalong are some of the funniest things you've done
Due to the fact that Pegasus mentions being retired in this movie, the 4kids dub keeps saying that he's retired throughout season 4 and the entirety of GX despite the fact that we see him working in his office
Somehow the YuGiOh Movie Stream returned.
Ngl, Anubis showing up in the dream/vision of the future, grabbing Kaiba by his head, screaming about Light and Dark, made him seem far more intimidating than he really was as a kid
Not to mention, the creepy chanting in what I assume is Egyptian or a similar dialect
