Even though he wasn't in favor of it, according to TGS Anime, one of the Battle City rules is that both players can use a card effect specific to a monster type (Flute of Summoning Dragon, and in this case, Dark Magic Curtain)
This is actually one of the reasons I never could get into Yu Gi Oh as a kid. Because all the lore behind certain cards, they never really get to have moments of long term celebration or conversation with their owners. Especially true with Yugi's/Pharaoh's Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl since they are the spirits of Pharaoh's closest childhood friends. Oddly the series has shown there are times outside of battle when they can leave the confinements of their cards for a short time, like DMG did in Duel Monster Spirit Day.
@@SupermarketSweep777 You couldn't get into Yu-Gi-Oh! as a kid, but you watched through DM and far enough into GX to know Duel Monster Spirit Day? You sure must have put up with being bored a lot as a kid.
"I was told you only have 1 Dark Magician in your deck." Magician of Black Chaos Dark Sage Dark Flame Knight (which requires Dark Magician to activate)
@@VixXstazosJOB Well since he is a Dark Magician deck user, he should probably be well informed of Dark Magician Girl. If the opponent has a Dark Magician Girl, your Dark Magicians would probably turn against you if they were to be destroyed.
Arkana have himself to blame if I'm gonna be completely honest. Arkana got very cocky & to add insult to injury he literally underestimated Yugi completely. He literally got no one else to blame but himself for being this short sighted
how I miss those streams, it was the best thing ever not the anime(not the point) itself but chat the reaction on some illegal rule, and chat would react "Rules?" or on Kaiba laugh god I wish if there is a vod with chat
Arkana's Dark Magician: We don't like being selfishly sacrificed, Arkana. Or used. Or insulted. Arkana: We? Arkana's Dark Magician: That's right. Your duel monsters. From now on, you must take good care of your monsters. Because if you don't, we'll find out, Arkana. We, monsters, can see everything. So duel nice.
All that talk about Arcana not respecting his dark magician is pretty funny considering that the point of the archetype irl is to get your dark magician to the graveyard asap
Me: Not so fast, Arkana! Aren’t you forgetting something about Dark Magician Girl’s special ability?! Arkana: What?! Her special ability?! Me: Yes! Since your first Dark Magician is in your graveyard and my Dark Magician is in my graveyard, Dark Magician Girl gains a total of 600 attack points giving her 2600 attack points! Arkana: What?! Are you telling me that your monster gains 300 extra attack points for every Dark Magician that’s in the card graveyard?! Me: That’s right! Which means my Dark Magician Girl can destroy your second Dark Magician since you ordered him to attack!
Arkana: No. No! This is impossible! I can’t be defeated by the King of Games himself! There’s no way my Dark Magician can be defeated by Yugi’s Dark Magician Girl! There’s no way I can lose my sweet Catherine! I am Arkana, Master of All Dark Magicians and the greatest magician the world has ever known! Yami Yugi/Yugi Muto: Not anymore you’re not.
Me: Not so fast, Arkana! Aren’t you forgetting something about Dark Magician Girl's special ability? Arkana: WHAT?! HER SPECIAL ABILITY?! Me: Yes! Since you have your first Dark Magician in your graveyard and my Dark Magician in my graveyard, Dark Magician Girl's attack points gains a total of 2600! Making her strong enough to destroy your second magician! Arkana: Wait! Stop the attack! Me: Too late, Arkana! You’ve already ordered your second Dark Magician to attack so that my Dark Magician Girl can deflect your magician’s attack and destroy him! (Dark Magician Girl destroys Arkana’s second Dark Magician, thus, Arkana’s life points goes down from 750 to 650 and Dark Magician Girl gains another 300 extra attack points for Arkana’s second Dark Magician that’s in the card graveyard thanks to Dark Magician Girl's special ability giving her a total of 2900) Arkana: NO! My Dark Magician has been defeated! But how? Why? This was supposed to be MY grand finale! It can’t be! Why would the power of my Dark Magician be reborn in your monster?! Me: The Dark Magician Girl inherits points from every Dark Magician no matter whose graveyard that’s in! So when you destroyed your first magician, you helped gave my Dark Magician Girl the power she needed to destroy your second! (Arkana quivers in fear) Me: And now, for my draw, and for your downfall, Arkana! Get ready for MY grand finale! As I wipe out the last of your life points! (Arkana still trapped in shackles struggling to get out but still stuck) Arkana: No! Let me out! Me: Dark Magician Girl, attack his life points directly with Dark Burning Attack! (Dark Magician Girl attacks Arkana and his life points directly with her Dark Burning Attack and his life points goes down from 650 to 0 as he screams in pain and fear) Me: When you mistreat your cards, you pay a high price! You lose! You call yourself a Dark Magician Master? It was your disrespect and your misuse of your own Dark Magicians that caused you to lose this duel, Arkana! Arkana: That can’t be! There’s no way you could’ve defeated me, Brandon! I am the greatest magician the world has ever known! You’re nothing, Brandon! Me: What I am is very sorry for you. It looks like you’ve led me all the way down here for the sole purpose of losing at your own demented game, Arkana! You relied on trickery to win instead of trusting, respecting, and believing the heart of the cards!

I don’t why, but dark magic curtain doesn’t say on the card itself that your opponent can use it after you played it unless it was only in the anime. I hate to say it but Yugi should have lost because he didn’t have any monsters on the field to protect his life points and no face down spell or trap cards to stop Arkana from a direct attack
Dude if any of these characters followed the actual rules of the card game from Season 1 Episode 1, the whole fabric of reality would be altered. And yes Dark Magic Curtain only works for the user, not both Decks. Also only works specifically for Dark Magician and not Dark Magician Girl. Arkana kinda deserved to be cheated out anyways considering he shaved his Dark Magician cards to be thinner and easily identifiable to draw.
One of the Battle City rules, although no one was in favor of it, states that spells like this and The Flute of Summoning Dragon works for both duelists.
Duel Monsters isn’t Yu-Gi-Oh as much as people like to complain about rules they’re two different games with different rules. Duel Monsters is more of a DnD type card game where as long as something makes a reasonable amount of sense it’s fine. Yu-Gi-Oh is an attempt at taking Dual Monsters and making it a balanced game with set rules
No the attack is 2000 when she hits the field but effects are not immediately shown unless card owners declare/explains anything, this is just the anime equivalent to 'didn't bother to read the cards text'
Ah yes dark magic curtain works for both players....wait what? And you cant summon dark magician girl with it. Only dark magician....yeah Atem lost here GG
@@Emily-cw7tj Everyone cheats actually. Joey doesn’t technically use his cards right either. Marik cheats using shadow powers and cards, according Kaiba were banned in Battle City. Mai uses scent to cheat. Yami Bakura used good Bakura as a hostage to try and make Yugi Surrender. Bandit Keith hid cards in sleeve, Weevil put a card in Joey’s deck, Noah used Mokuba as a shield to stop Kaiba from winning the duel. Kaiba literally fucking threatened to commit suicide as a severe gaslighting and manipulation tactic. Pegasus uses millennium eye. Etc etc, everyone cheats 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@gamerookie09 I kinda of wish we could have seen Mokuba try dueling... Oh I almost forgot! Rebecca Hawkins played fairly right? And she was actually a pretty good duelist the second time around
People don't understand that anime rules don't apply to real life rules😂 Shows how in real life, Yugi would kick your butts in a duel because a average yugioh player just can't read the cards correctly. People I face not knowing what Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon does when I have 2 on field is a prime example lol.
