Joey struggles but can't manage it, and Kaiba once again defeats Joey. After Yugi 's victory over Yami Marik Yugi saved the normal Marik , Kaiba leaves and heads toward the island's self destruct button with Mokuba.
Mokuba activates the island's self destruct. Everyone but Seto and Mokuba escape on the helicopter that was to take Joey to the hospital. Seto is laughing maniacally and says "I will see you geeks again, especially you, Yugi". Later, when the world is threatened by a new evil surprise, surprise , Kaiba, Yugi , and Joey once again have to save the world, this time from Dartz and his Orichalcos Soldiers.
During this saga, the three Legendary Dragons are discovered it's the Egyptian God Cards all over again. They are very special cards with ancient and extremely strong powers. Uh oh. Legend says that they must be combined to save the world, and although Kaiba vowed that all of his hatred would disappear, he's still Kaiba, and that means he hates teamwork and is selfish, unreasonable, and well He refuses to cooperate with Yugi , and quote "That third rate hack of a duelist, Joey".
Of course, you can't blame him for being bitter with Yugi. And his total disrespect of Joey has grown thanks to Joey 's humiliating defeat in Battle City. But, as always, Kaiba, and his dragon, Critias come around in the end and Yugi defeats Dartz , ending this saga.
Remember that Theme Park Kaiba left to build in the U. Many old friends return to compete, such as Solomon Mutou and Rebecca Hawkins. Weevil and Rex Raptor even show up demanding the right to compete. When the orphan Seto got adopted by Gozaburo Kaiba , he was strictly taught the ways of technology and company business day after day, and Gozaburo was cruel to him. All of this caused Kaiba to become cold-hearted and evil, his old self taken over by a demon created by his hatred similar to Yami Marik.
Using holographic technology, Kaiba severely injures Grandpa. Yugi then duels Kaiba to get revenge. Yugi wins and uses his Millenium powers to banish the evil from Kaiba completely. Thus, "Yami" Kaiba was destroyed. In the dubbed anime, "Yami" Kaiba returns at least Pegasus claims it's "Yami" Kaiba , looking fat and ugly with green hair.
In the original Japanese version, this ugly person is one of Pegasus ' Eliminators and not "Yami" Kaiba. There is a little bit of controversy over the ages of the main characters in the English version of Yu-Gi-Oh! First, in the second season of the Japanese version which is the first season of the English version , the characters are all starting high school.
It was at one time stated on the official Yu-Gi-Oh website that Yugi was a Freshman at Domino High School, which would make him and the others in his class about years old, but I don't believe that this was ever specified in the show, and it is no longer stated on the website.
Inspired and thought to be created by Seto Kaiba himself, Kaibaman is an interesting monster card many fans probably remember from the Yu-Gi-Oh!
GX, the same card shows up as a character voiced by the same actor who portrayed Seto Kaiba. Even his clothes are similar to those worn by Kaiba at the Battle City Tournament in the original anime. Abandoned in an orphanage as a little child, along with his little brother Mokuba, Seto Kaiba never learns the identity of his real father. Therefore, neither sibling knows the family they come from. The last name the two take belongs to a tycoon who adopted them after Seto displayed immense strategic skill by beating the former in a game of chess.
This conundrum continues through the entire run of Yu-Gi-Oh! Kaiba's favorite and most powerful cards, the Blue-Eyes White Dragons, were actually stolen - all three of them. Back in the first season of Yu-Gi-Oh! Kaiba owns three, while the fourth is in the possession of Yugi's grandfather. According to the original Yu-Gi-Oh! Regardless of how much sense that makes, the fact that he owned three of the most powerful cards in the game the maximum number which could be included in a deck wasn't enough for Kaiba.
Since he was aware one Blue-Eyes White Dragon was still out there, his ego did not allow him to risk another one of these cards being used against him, so Seto straight up tore the fourth one in half, after winning it from Yugi's grandfather. Toei's Yu-Gi-Oh! Although it never got an English dub, many fans still remember it as either season 1 or season 0 of Yu-Gi-Oh! Along with different character developments, appearances, and completely different voice actors, a notable difference between the original anime and the later Duel Monsters series was Kaiba's hair, which was completely green.
During the Battle City tournament in the Duel Monsters anime, the characters are thrown into the virtual world where they meet Gozaburo Kaiba's real son, Noah. The kid was an exceedingly bright student and heir to KaibaCorp until he experienced a horrible car accident at the age of 12, which resulted in his mind being programmed into a computer. In a supposed effort to make him more intimidating and reminiscent of the story's anti-villain Seto Kaiba, the writers gave him a green-haired look inspired by Kaiba in the original show.
If you think about it, Seto Kaiba never lost a fair duel, making him legitimately the best duelist in the series. Kaiba's design incorporates multiple layers of clothing and a wide range of expressions. Depicted here is the Duelist in the outfit he wears in the Battle City arc from front, side, and rear views and alongside views of his head from different angles.
Kaiba's character design was overseen by Kazuki Takahashi. His usual outfit from the second series anime starting in episode 54 consists of a long white sleeveless KaibaCorp -designed coat featuring shoulder pads and a raised studded collar, with black sleeves from his shirt coming out from under. He has extra belts in pairs strapped around his upper arms and shins.
He often wears a KaibaCorp Duel Disk on his left arm. In his initial appearance and his first loss to Yami Yugi , he wears a blue standard Domino High School uniform. During the events of the Duelist Kingdom arc starting in episode 8 , he wears a long indigo blue trenchcoat with a dark teal long sleeved button shirt with an extended collar, a matching pants with a white belt on his waist and black shoes. He later wears this outfit during the events of the Legendary Heroes arc lastly in episode A flashback in episode set before the beginning of the series shows him wearing his indigo outfit when he rejects Crump 's proposition for a penguin theme park and forced Nezbitt to destroy his lab.
In episode 52 , in which he meets Ishizu Ishtar and gains " Obelisk the Tormentor ", his long trenchcoat becomes purple and his teal button shirt and pants are replaced with a black turtleneck and matching pants and dons a steel wristbands in both of his wrist. He wears his purple outfit again for his first few appearances in the Doma arc including when he gains " The Fang of Critias " , from episode to episode , before returning to his standard outfit in episode Duel Monsters , Kaiba has brown hair with bangs down to the top of his eyes and a hairline at the base of the neck.
Kaiba's character design in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime is nearly identical to his original appearance, although his facial structure is changed subtly.
In the original Japanese version of Yu-Gi-Oh! Kaiba uses the word " ore " to mean "I" instead of boku or watashi ; ore is a boastful way to say "I" in Japanese. Kaiba usually calls Katsuya Jonouchi Joey Wheeler names, such as " bonkotsu " mediocre , " make-inu " pathetic dog, loser , " uma no hone " a nobody , and " zako " insignificant person, weakling.
This name calling was carried over to the dub. In the English version, Kaiba plays as an arch-rival to Yami Yugi and appears to have a certain snobbish contempt for Yugi's group of friends, namely Joey Wheeler ; he disparagingly refers to them constantly with derisive nicknames such as "the nerd herd", "the dweeb patrol", or "the geek squad".
At one point, he kept running into them during Waking the Dragons , and quipped "Great. Dork fest continues. When he sees Tristan Taylor whose body is taken over by Nezbitt behaves aggressively, he becomes concerned by his change of behavior and tries to reason with him. He's sarcastic, rude, usually selfish, power-lusting, no-nonsense and down-to-earth, and somewhat narcissistic, while he may seem very realistic, but, as Atem has said so multiple times, he can be very clueless.
Plus, he is fairly condescending and scathing to everyone, with the exception of Mokuba, the only person he is consistently shown to treat with love and care. However, it is stated by Mokuba ever since being adopted by Gozaburo, Kaiba has rarely smiled, if at all. Mokuba has also noted he's become much colder than he used to be. Despite this, Kaiba still has strong brotherly instincts for Mokuba and will put his life in danger in a heart beat to safeguard Mokuba's life.
Apart from Mokuba, Kaiba exhibits a compassion for children — especially orphans as he himself was one and knew what it felt like. Kaiba also threw himself between Zorc and two Egyptian children, thus enabling them to make a getaway.
At various points during the series, he opens up momentarily, performing kind acts, though always covering them up with sarcasm, and denying them if asked. These occurrences increase in frequency towards the later series. Aside from that, Kaiba maintains a conservative, stiff, and uptight exterior.
Although Kaiba may seem frigid and unkind toward his brother Mokuba, he is emotionally perspicuous, protective, and exhibits a brotherly love for him. When their adoptive brother Noah had hypnotized Mokuba into not remembering him and thinking Noah was his real brother, Kaiba revealed how much he cared about him to try to make him remember; in one Season 1 episode of the second series anime, after Pegasus is defeated, Kaiba tells Yugi that Mokuba "means everything to me".
This is shown when Kaiba risks his own life by standing on a ledge to win the Duel against Yugi so that he can get to Pegasus to save Mokuba. Even when Kaiba preaches that no one gets away with trying to take over his company, he risks KaibaCorp when Dueling Noah for Mokuba. Kaiba is known for his snobbery and sense of superiority over others, as his motives are usually ruthless and rapacious, and his personality traits are selfish as he would do almost anything to gain status, power, wealth, respect, prestige, glory, and supremacy.
As a character, Kaiba is known for displaying a conservative, ruthless, and abrasive demeanor, especially looking down towards people whom he considers socially contemptible or throwing blunt insults and wisecracks towards rival duelists and their dueling abilities to whom he considers to be strategically inferior opponents.
Like the Pharaoh, pride is Kaiba's strength and weakness; he never backs down from a challenge and gives everything he can in a Duel. This results him in having a sense of superiority, making it extremely difficult to earn his respect especially towards people he considers beneath him, and causes him to look down on and treat others as inferior until Kaiba considers them as his equal. This gives him difficulty when forced to rely on others and work as a team.
His pride in himself and his accomplishments as an individual are prominent character traits that form a part of his character throughout the series, and he reacts harshly to those who threaten or infringe on it although it is toned down slightly towards the end of the series. In addition, Kaiba has expressed dislike, disapproval, and displeasure towards other people using his cards, namely his " Blue-Eyes White Dragon " his favorite and signature card ; notably, he uses its motif to decorate a large portion of his personal effects - e.
This is shown in Yu-Gi-Oh! Kaiba goes so far as to attack Joey's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" with his own, destroying both in the process, to prevent Joey from using it for another turn. He even says angrily, "I'm the only one with the skills necessary to wield a Blue-Eyes! This may also be due to Kaiba's affinity for Dragon -Type monsters.
One of Seto's recurring traits is his absolute refusal to believe in the magic powers that is often used in the series. Later on, during sagas like Waking the Dragons , he openly admits to believing in all the supernatural events occurring around him, instead of just ignorantly saying they don't exist as he always does although it is possible that he thinks that it's science instead of magic, and doesn't hesitate to do something about it.
In the Japanese version, while Kaiba does not take it very well, he is much more accepting of the faith and magic that occurs. In the Doma arc, he told Alister he should show him the power of a "true Duelist" and of the "Chosen One", and also openly accepted the vision he and Yami Yugi had after their Egyptian Gods were destroyed, as well as the fact that their battle was destined over the span of years.
During the Duel against Dartz, Kaiba destroyed the " Mirror Knight Token " after they had taken the form of Yugi, Pegasus, Joey, and Mai because of his belief if they were true Duelists, they would be willing to allow themselves to be destroyed in order to save the world, while in the dub, Kaiba believed Dartz manipulated the holograms to resemble their friends in order to weaken their resolve. Although there are some instances where Kaiba is a believer in both the Japanese and dub.
One such example would be during his final turn against Zigfried von Schroeder when he predicted he would draw exactly the spell cards he would need to defeat Zigfried, despite initially only having one card in his hand. Understandably, Kaiba gains a lot of contempt and disdain from virtually every single person he knows with the exception of Mokuba - mostly Joey, Tristan and Tea in particular.
Yugi constantly holds out hope for him, as does Yugi's other self Yami. Though Yami himself finds Kaiba's condescending attitude and arrogance quite infuriating. As was shown on the times they've been forced to Duel together as a team. Kaiba, for the most part, could not care less about what they think about him and returns the contempt in kind.
Priest Seto is depicted as being less antagonistic than modern-day Kaiba, and is portrayed as being very loyal with a strong sense of justice. However, he maintains Kaiba's pride and intelligent mind. Despite Kaiba's self-centered, snobbish, and elitist personality, he remains an intrinsically obstinate, astute, disciplined and conscientious individual who has a concern for human ethics throughout the entire anime series. He exhibits ethical and morally upright principles in that he is against stealing.
Though his plans are often vengeful and Machiavellian, notably vindictive as he sees revenge as a way to get even especially when seeing the negative side of his dueling defeats inflicted by his arch-rival Yami Yugi. Nonetheless, he is a rational, intelligent, and perspicacious person who has a vast belief that hard work and determination is what gets you ahead in life, not stealing at the expense of others to advance your situation.
As such, he is disgusted by Zigfried and Noah, calling them pathetic and not worth living up to his company because they were planning on stealing his works to take his company instead of earning it through the trials and tribulations that he went through. Kaiba is also known for his perfectionist mindset and for his disdain of mediocrity as an acceptable standard while maintaining high standards of excellence; whether if its honing his dueling skills or maintaining the quality of of his technology.
In every duel, he punctiliously implements an array of well executed high power dueling strategies into giving his opponents a hard time to strategically overpower him. He also remains punctilious in the Duel Disks he developed as he would use them even when Duel Rings are nearby by plugging it into the Duel Ring's hologram projector so any card he plays on his Duel Disk is displayed on the Duel Ring instead of just using the Duel Ring.
However, when he lost, he decided on a new path, rather an old one, of building Kaiba Land all around the world. However, he vowed his rivalry with Yugi is far from over, even though they never had an on-screen Duel after this. At some point, Kaiba through his philanthropic hospitality and passion for Duel Monsters established the Central Duel Academy , a private educational institution to train the next generation of up and coming duelists to accomplish this goal.
Throughout the series, Kaiba has proven himself one of the most astute, accomplished, and formidable businessmen and investors in the world. A child prodigy and polymorphic genius, he excels at virtually any skill or area of study he applies himself to. With natural aptitude and raw talent, since his teenage years, he has both successful reinvented and ran his world-wide cooperation while also pursued his passion for games, having spent years as an undefeated world champion in various games including Duel Monsters and chess.
In addition to his shrewd business acumen and gaming aptitude, while having no known university degrees, Kaiba is incredibly skilled with science and technology, most noticeably programming and engineering. He specializes mainly in computer software programming and building cutting edge technological software and hardware such as the development of KaibaCorp's high-tech Duel Disks and advanced Solid Vision technology.
He is very advanced hacker, skillfully making his way through the Duelist Kingdom network. He is also very athletic, able to nimbly land from high jumps and a proficient hand-to-hand combat, easily defeating some of Pegasus' elite guards while showing deceptive raw strength. At a young age, Seto and his younger brother Mokuba 's parents both died.
Their relatives took everything from their will and sent Seto and Mokuba to the orphanage. In the dub, it simply said that their parents died and there was no mention of their relatives.
Seto and Mokuba playing chess at the orphanage. On their first day at the orphanage, Seto comforted Mokuba, who was crying. He told him that he will be his father from there on and vowed to protect him no matter what. He advised Mokuba to always stay on his guard, as he will be finished if he shows any weakness. Together at the orphanage, Seto and Mokuba would often play games, including chess , which Seto always won, but still encouraged Mokuba.
One day they made a model theme park in the sandpit. Seto said that one day they would open real theme parks around the world, that everyone would want to visit [9] and orphans would be allowed in free of charge. The former head of KaibaCorp, Gozaburo Kaiba , arrived at the orphanage to perform a publicity stunt. Seto, who was 12 at the time, saw the chance to challenge him to a game of chess, with the stakes being that Gozaburo was to adopt Seto and Mokuba together, if Seto wins.
Gozaburo refused at first, but when Seto threatened to tell everyone he backed down from a challenge with a child, he submits. Seto won since he had already studied Gozaburo's chess methods. Gozaburo then reluctantly adopted both brothers. When he adopted Seto, Gozaburo planned to only use his body as a shell for his son, Noah.
Noah had been injured in an accident and had his mind uploaded into a virtual world, as he was unable to survive in his real body. Gozaburo also wanted to use Seto to motivate Noah to work harder so he could head a company of that magnitude. Gozaburo abandoned his idea to transfer Noah's mind into Seto's body and focused his energies in training Seto through a rigorously accelerated education program to hone his business acumen and corporate management proficiency.
True to the terms of the bet, life with Gozaburo was the complete opposite of the luxury that Seto and Mokuba envisioned after their adoption, as Gozaburo forced Seto into a rigorously accelerated school program, forcing him to study several subjects including economics, social studies, foreign languages, and game theory. Nonetheless, a naive Gozaburo also did not realize that he was not merely raising an heir, but a powerful apprentice that would ultimately outsmart him and take over his company.
When Gozaburo asked Seto what he planned to do with KaibaCorp after he inherited it, he said that he planned to build a Kaiba Land theme park for underprivileged children. Gozaburo called this boring, but Seto protested that games purify the soul. Gozaburo was not interested as games cannot be used to rule and ordered Hobson to confiscate all of Seto's toys, refusing to let Seto touch toys until he knew how to rule. In the dub, Seto couldn't keep up with the pace Gozaburo wanted him to study at.
Gozaburo disallowed him from having weekends off. As Gozaburo said that discipline is the only way to crush your enemies, Seto protested that he has no enemies. Gozaburo insisted that he does and he must learn that he can't even trust Gozaburo. He ordered Hobson to confiscate all of Seto's toys, so that they won't distract him from his studies. He also left a note saying that their new family couldn't take everything away from them.
Kaiba stepped out onto a balcony and vowed to get a real "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", one day. Seto meets Zigfried. Gozaburo brought Seto and Mokuba to a party he threw. Seto had achieved a name for himself as a prodigy. A German man introduced his son as a prodigy too. His son, Zigfried von Schroeder , whispered to Seto asking if they should spice things up. Then the lights began to flicker on and off.
Gozaburo was astonished as the system was protected by a fail safe system. Zigfried whispered to Kaiba that he dabbles in technology.
He said that spending all your time alone causes you to tinker in your own projects and that Seto must understand. Seto returned all the money within a single day. Seto invented a virtual software for playing video games. However, Gozaburo intended to use it for war. Seto confronted him over this, but Gozaburo scolded him again for wanting to play games.
Seto was to inherit the company one day, Gozaburo said, and the company is about beating enemies and rising to power, not making toys. Seto called him insane and Gozaburo had his guards take Seto away. Seto called out "Father" as he was dragged away. That was the last time he called Gozaburo "Father". Not wanting his virtual system to be used by Gozaburo to kill countless people and make a fortune, Seto refused to let himself hand his system over to the evil man.
He lost his respect for Gozaburo, and decided that he would take over KaibaCorp. Seto made a deal with The Big Five , where they would try to overthrow Gozaburo. He told the Big Five that Gozaburo didn't give them the respect they deserved and he would treat them better once he becomes in charge.
Seto made sure Gozaburo came to know of their plan and accused Mokuba of snitching on them. Seto and Mokuba were briefly turned against each other and Mokuba was given comfort by Gozaburo. Unable to live with the defeat, Gozaburo committed suicide, [18] but not before he uploaded his mind into Noah 's virtual world in the dub, Gozaburo left in disgrace after the takeover, never to be seen or heard from again until the Virtual World arc.
After taking control of KaibaCorp, Seto shifted its economic interest from manufacturing weapons of mass destruction to game-oriented equipment. Kaiba didn't give The Big Five the respect or power they had been expecting when they made the deal to overthrow Gozaburo. He refused to provide finance to Crump to build his dream penguin theme park. He demoted Nezbitt to dispatching material for building the tower [21] In the dub Kaiba took Lector's title of heir to company president and made Lector little more than company figurehead.
Kaiba started building an amusement park for orphaned and underprivileged children called Kaiba Land. At the start of the series, only one Kaiba Land had been built, in Domino in the dub, none of the parks had been built, and Kaiba Land was touted as the KaibaCorp headquarters. Kaiba began work on creating holographic technology to heighten the experience of playing Duel Monsters.
Kaiba demonstrates the holographic technology and makes a partnership with Pegasus. Kaiba witnesses Pegasus face Bandit Keith in the finals. At the Duel, Pegasus simply sat in front of Keith for a few seconds, then wrote down some instructions on a piece of paper, which he gave to a beginner, Sam , from the audience to use against Keith. He hoped Kaiba was "enjoying the tournament so far, even though it must seem so crude to him, unlike the holographic Dueling stations KaibaCorp is developing.
Kaiba met with Pegasus to demonstrate a miniature Dueling Arena to a group of businessmen. Zigfried von Schroeder then entered the room disgusted, as he had developed something similar and believed Kaiba's idea belonged to him.
Kaiba inferred that Pegasus must have read Keith's mind in the Duel, so later he began making Duel Disks to combat Pegasus' mind reading strategy. With Duel Disks, players would be able to stand further apart and avoid face-to-face contact, which he hoped would be enough to avoid having his mind read. Suspecting it might be the 4th "Blue-Eyes", Kaiba visited Solomon's shop and saw the card.
He tried to trade for the card and buy it, but Solomon refused, since the card is of high sentimental value to him. Still determined and sickened by Solomon's attitude, Kaiba kidnapped him and challenged him to a Duel. Kaiba defeated Solomon and overwhelmed him with the holographic technology used in the Duel.
As a prize, he took Solomon's "Blue-Eyes". He then called Yugi over to collect his grandfather. After winning, Yami inflicted a Mind Crush on Kaiba dispelling his evil half. Despite not being an official match, meaning Yugi's victory didn't topple Kaiba from his pedestal as World Champion, Kaiba's reputation was still somewhat tarnished as Yugi became widely known as the duelist who defeated Kaiba.
After his defeat, Kaiba dropped out of playing Duel Monsters as a result of being confused about how power lost to heart and began rebuilding himself. They sent two men to Kaiba's office to capture him. Kaiba refused to cooperate, so the henchmen prepared to open fire. However, Kaiba knocked them back with a chair and deflected their gunshots with his briefcase.
He jumped out the window of his office, leading them to believe he died. In the dub, the guns are removed and Kaiba jumped out after refusing to cooperate. In the meantime his Deck was stolen and Mokuba was kidnapped. Later Kaiba snuck back into his mansion through a hidden passageway.
He entered a hidden computer lab, where he got an update on what Pegasus had done to KaibaCorp. He learned that Mokuba was held prisoner on the Duelist Kingdom island and Pegasus will be given shares of KaibaCorp once Yugi is defeated in the Duelist Kingdom tournament.
Kaiba flew to the Duelist Kingdom to confront Pegasus. He brought his Duel Disks with him to combat Pegasus' mind reading. As soon as he arrived on the island, he bumped into Yugi and his friends.
Yugi returned Kaiba's Deck to him and suggested that they stick together as they are all going to Pegasus' castle, but Kaiba declined. Joey Wheeler , who was disgusted by Kaiba's attitude, confronted him, and the two wound-up Dueling. Kaiba used the Duel as a chance to test his Duel Disks. Kaiba cruelly mocked Joey and called him a loser. Before leaving, he told the group about Pegasus' Duel with Keith, so Yugi and Joey know what they are up against. Kaiba jams Kemo's gun.
This scene was removed in the dub. The next day, Kemo found Kaiba on the island and pointed a gun to his head. However Kaiba jammed the gun with a " Gyakutenno Megami " card. Kaiba pulled the gun from Kemo, injuring his hand. This scene is removed from the dub. Kemo lunged at Kaiba, but Kaiba subdued him and ordered him to take them to Mokuba. Kemo took Kaiba to Pegasus' dungeons, but triggered a security alarm, calling for backup.
Kaiba hid on one of the walls and listened-in on a group of Pegasus' guards, who had been unable to find him. The guards decided to go to Mokuba's cell, believing Kaiba will show up there soon. Kaiba leaped down and followed them. Once they arrived at the cell, Kaiba sneaked-up on them and knocked them out.
Kaiba was briefly reunited with Mokuba, but was confronted by Pegasus before he could release him. Pegasus used the Millennium Eye to strip Mokuba of his soul, which he trapped in a " Soul Prison " card. Pegasus said that Kaiba must defeat him in a Duel if he wished to free Mokuba. Kaiba was willing to Duel on the spot, but Pegasus refused telling Kaiba that he must defeat Yugi in a Duel, before he can do that.
Kaiba confronted Yugi outside the castle and imposed a Duel. Initially Yugi refuses, but he switched to Yami Yugi and accepted. Kaiba sees Mokuba, begging Seto to help him. A younger version of Seto tries to run to Mokuba's aid but unfortunately, it is too late.
Kaiba refuses to lose his only chance at saving his brother. As Yami was about to win, Kaiba stood-up on the edge of the castle, such that if Yami made another attack, he would fall to his death.
Although Yami tried to attack, Yugi took-over and called it off. Kaiba won on the next turn, taking five of Yugi's Star Chips. Combined with the five Pegasus gave him earlier, Kaiba had enough to enter the castle and face Pegasus. Kaiba got ready to Duel Pegasus. He insisted on using the Duel Disks, but Pegasus wasn't too keen. Pegasus accepted under the condition, that Mokuba who is stripped of his soul, held the Duel Disk for him.
Kaiba refused to face his brother in such a way and agreed to Duel without the Disks. Kaiba privately asked Mokuba to forgive him as Pegasus trapped his soul in another "Soul Prison" card. Kaiba thanked Yugi for saving Mokuba and insisted that they should have a fair Duel someday to determine who is the better Duelist. He gave Yugi and his friends a lift home from the island afterwards. Kaiba prepared to fire The Big Five for trying to take over KaibaCorp, as well as payment for the suffering through which they had forced him and Mokuba.
But the Big Five plead with Kaiba, and gave him the complete virtual reality game as a peace offering. Eager to try out the virtual reality game, Kaiba refrained from immediately firing them and decided to test the system. Mokuba advised against it, harboring doubt. Kaiba however assured him otherwise, and continued to experiment with the game. However an Armed Ninja ambushed him, taking him by surprise as he had no recollection of programming it. Kaiba attempted to attack it with Blue-Eyes, but a Dragon Capture Jar appeared and trapped the dragon.
The Armed Ninja threw a net on Kaiba, capturing him. Kaiba was taken to the Castle of Dark Illusions " and chained to a pillar, where he is held captive by the Witty Phantom.
In an attempt to escape, Kaiba tried to end the simulation, but learned that that function had been disabled. Mokuba recruited Yugi and Joey to help him in his efforts to rescue Kaiba. Together they go to the castle and Mokuba managed to free Kaiba. Kaiba Summoned a second "Blue-Eyes", which destroyed the phantom.
The two "Blue-Eyes" easily defeated Armed Ninja. The Big Five congratulated the players on making it to the final level, but Kaiba protested that they stopped the "Mythic Dragon" from being Summoned, so they have already beaten the game. However the Big Five had reprogrammed the game making them have to face the "Mythic Dragon".
The group were sent to a room, where only Dragon-Type monsters are of use. The group had their dragons attack the "Mythic Dragon" to no avail. The Mythic Dragon started to take out the players and their dragons one by one. Mokuba pushed Kaiba out of the way of one of its blasts, saving Kaiba, but letting himself be taken out.
With the loss of Mokuba taking a great toll on Kaiba, Yugi's persuasion finally got through to Kaiba, who fused his dragons into " Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon ". Kaiba and Yugi woke-up in the courtyard of the Edina 's palace. The crowds cheered for them for defeating the "Mythic Dragon". Kaiba and his rescuers returned to the real world, [38] while the Big Five were left trapped in the virtual world. Kaiba receives " Obelisk the Tormentor " from Ishizu Ishtar.
Ishizu Ishtar invited Kaiba to an Ancient Egypt exhibition. Here she used her Millennium Necklace to show him visions from the past, where a sorcerer , who looks like Kaiba, battled the Nameless Pharaoh , who looks like Yugi, using Duel Monster Spirits. She told him about their most powerful monsters, the Egyptian Gods , which Pegasus made Duel Monsters cards of, but was unable to control their power. She had come into possession of one of the Gods, " Obelisk the Tormentor ", while the others were stolen by thieves.
She gave Kaiba the card, in exchange for him starting a Duel Monsters tournament to attract the thieves so they may gather the three Gods. Kaiba laughed at the idea of him returning the "Obelisk" card, but Ishizu insisted that he will, as she has foreseen it. Kaiba agreed to host the tournament in the hopes of gathering the three God cards for himself through an ante rule [39] and so he can defeat Yugi, reclaiming his title as World Champion.
The computer Summoned " Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon ", but Kaiba defeated it with "Obelisk the Tormentor", whose strength proved too much for the computer, causing it to catch fire. Kaiba invited Duelists he thought to be good enough to participate in the tournament. All players were given the newest version of his Duel Disks. Mokuba suggested that they disqualify them, but Kaiba allowed for it.
In the dub, Kaiba had planned to have them hack in all along, so the holders of the Egyptian Gods would enter the tournament. The first Rare Hunter Dueled Yugi. Kaiba found out the Rare Hunter was using fake cards, but still didn't disqualify him, as he needed to learn more about the Rare Hunters. Kaiba took part in the tournament himself, leaving his employees monitor other Duels to find the Egyptian God cards.
Kaiba found Koji Nagumo bullying a Duelist he just defeated into giving him a second card through the ante rule. Kaiba challenged Koji to a Duel and gave him rare cards to improve his Deck beforehand.
Despite this, Kaiba quickly defeated him using "Obelisk the Tormentor". Kaiba encourages Yugi in his Duel against Strings. He spent much of the preliminaries trying to find and defeat Yugi. He bumped into Joey Wheeler in his search, surprised to see him wearing a Duel Disk as he hadn't been invited.
Joey challenged Kaiba to a Duel on the spot, but Kaiba received word of a God Card being played and took-off. Seeing Yugi drops to his knees, doubting he can win, Kaiba called down to him, ordering him live up to his reputation and thinking he is the only one who should defeat Yugi. After Yugi won, Kaiba congratulated him, but said it's a shame Yugi won't have "Slifer the Sky Dragon" for long and challenged him to a Duel.
However Marik informed Yugi that his friends had been kidnapped. Yugi postponed the Duel as he must find his friends. Kaiba followed Yugi and caught-up when Yugi was challenged to a Duel by two Rare Hunters, who couldn't decide which of them should face Yugi first. Kaiba appeared and told them to both Duel at once in a Tag Duel against him and Yugi. They agree and Kaiba easily defeated both of them at once using "Obelisk the Tormentor". Kaiba took their Locator Cards and handed one to Yugi.
As they searched for Yugi's friends, the guys were confronted by Lumis , who showed them that they have kidnapped Mokuba. The Duel was setup such that when a player loses, the glass roof below them shatters sending them to their death in the dub, there was a vortex to the Shadow Realm under the glass.
However Kaiba eventually accepted that they must work as a team. Yugi and Kaiba worked together to Summon "Obelisk the Tormentor", which defeated Umbra, who used a parachute to save himself. Marik took control of Lumis' mind after he surrendered. Kaiba seized him demanding they release Mokuba. However Marik didn't keep his promise and left Lumis fall unconscious. He handed Yugi one of the Locator Cards, qualifying them both for the finals.
Seeing the Duel had been set-up to kill the loser, Kaiba tried to call it off, but Marik disregarded his authority. Once the Duel concluded with everyone alive, Kaiba parted and told Yugi that he'll see him at the finals.
Kaiba took his helicopter to the KaibaCorp Stadium , where he waited for the other finalists. After six of the other seven finalists arrived, the true location of the finals, the Kaiba Craft 3 landed. Kaiba's men tried to prevent Yugi and Joey's friends from boarding as they were not finalists, but Kaiba nonchalantly allowed it. On board Kaiba insulted Joey about making it this far by luck and advised Yugi to start using "Slifer".
