@@Todo776 That's because your a fool you see I was able to let my Jerry Bean know his not a real bean but a jelly bean so he's not destroyed by his bean allergy. WHAT! Jerry Bean attack is dropping how? Wait damn it now that he know he's made of sugar he's giving himself Diabetes!
Hilariously, so much of this happened during Duelist Kingdom that Kaiba himself began Battle City by making people read and obey the actual Duel Monsters rulebook. What I'm saying is that this is canon.
Which is funny because this means he gave up the ability to summon his best monsters with zero sacrifices because he thought doing so was a worthy tradeoff to not fall victim to Yugi's plot nonsense powers again.
It wasn’t so much DK wasn’t obaying the rules. They were. Kaiba just imposed his own for Battle City. Probably because he did not want to have to deal with DK bs ever again. He literally wrote his own rules.
@@lindt393 No, he didn't. He summoned them one turn at a time and under the Japanese rules at the time there was no tribute summoning so he didn't break that rule either (they added that rule in later to make the game a lot more balanced). YGO abridged had him summon them all in one turn for humor, but he didnt do that in the original anime lol
For people that actually followed the show...the skit is pretty spot on about how every duel is actually make believe and no one seems to follow the rules.
@@mrbubbles6468Yugi used catapult turtle to shoot a Monster at another monster, destroying its floatation ring so it would crush the monsters standing below that couldn't run away because of swords of revealing light. You telling me Pegasus added this very specific rule to his tournament?
I feel like the most logical thing is that the sword that can destroy anything should combine with the shield that can block anything if they clash. That way they both win. The shield stopped the sword from damaging, and the sword transformed the shield, thereby destroying it but not really.
I love how Yugi's "destroy the moon" plan just randomly resurfaces. Like he's so proud that he won with it once, so it's always one of his backup plans.
@@PlebNC He does it in his duel against Mako Tsunami during Season 1, using one of his monsters to destroy the (holographic) moon, on the grounds that it would change the tides of the (holographic) ocean and let him win. Season 1 kind of had a long-distance relationship with logic that way.
@@bencarlson4300 Not necessarily. It could be infinitely long but only like 2 meters high. Or it could be infinitely high but only about half a meter wide, in which case they could just go around. Or it could be infinitely long AND infinitely high in which case that does indeed present issues.
@@celestialtree8602 From my recollection of infinity in math, the rules are extremely loose, so it's really up to whoever forms the infinite wall of kuribohs, in which case (I would argue) makes it more likely than not that the infinite wall would be both infinitely tall AND wide since that would be most beneficial to Yugi.
In Battle City, Kaiba played a trap card against Yugi that emmited a sound wave that "prevented Slifer from hearing you call out your attack". Kaiba was using very SOUND logic.
The funnies part is that Yugi followed along what Kaiba was saying, so it wasn't Yugi making up stuff randomly just to deny Kaiba and win - he actually thinks this is how the game works
I mean that’s basically how Duelist Kingdom DID work. Also, Pharoh can’t exactly go back on the BS rules that HE invented. Kaiba gave up three Blue-Eyes White Dragons, Summoning Flute, and Monster Reborn before he adapted and made his own BS rules
It's funny that the part that Yugi objects to is not "your monster has a secret weakness to peanuts that nobody knew about until now" but was "the Lord of D talked to a dragon to make it feel ok to ride" which is WAY less bullshit
@@colmecolwag Well hang on, when did he have enough time for that. We've been watching them on the field the whole time. But we have no way of knowing Gardner's allergies. Therefore, Kaiba is a stupid doodie head, and Yugi wins!
@@tokatstorm9270 I'd also argue that by the time that Lord of D pepped up the BEWD, Big Shield Gardena would have been launched to safety! Except.... Because you have created an *infinite* number of kuribohs there is no space for the Big Shield to be launched to! He'd only be launched into the back of the kuribohs! Also launching big Shield Gardena does like no damage he's got like no attack points lol
@@colmecolwag He launched Gardna to a different position on the game mat, preventing gardna from being destroyed. Not to attack. Unfortunately, Blue eyes can fly. And thus followed Gardna to his new map position beyond his wall of kuribohs. It's all very logical stuff here.
It’s like two brothers, one a teenager and one a child younger than 10, playing Yugioh. The younger brother makes up rules to try winning while the older brother tries to explain why you can’t make up your own rules. Eventually, the older brother gives up and uses the younger brother’s tricks against him, leading to a stalemate that will only end when their mum calls them for dinner.
Fun fact: the people writing the show and the people making the card game did not work together, so in the show, a lot of the rules are vastly different from the card game. Or at least they were initially.
@@gabri-immortale incorrect, yugi used a lighter to kill him (the guy was pouring whiskey, or some high proof alcohol, and yugi dropped a lit lighting on his hand. when he went to shoot yugi it set off the alcohol and burnt him...well technically he only thought it burnt him, he failed the game because he used a finger other than his trigger finger to kill yugi thus he succumbed to the shadow game)
@@zwillscoopchannel9689 it's not, it's like episode 2 or 3 of season 0, the guy was holding up a diner that anzu (tea in the dub) was working at (burger world iirc, i can't remember if miho was working there too)
Not quite out of nowhere. In the very first season, Yugi actually DID destroy the moon, or rather, he ordered his monsters to attack someone's spell card, which was a full moon. Said spell was creating a high tide on the field, buffing aquatic monsters and allowing them to hide from sight. YuGiOh season 1 was weird and full of bullshit rules.
@@blam320 Perfectly enough, it was his own Moon...like that super-weak "give ONE beast 300 ATK&DEF"-equip card...which had no business even staying on the field...
@@jqobsidianthegoongod9452 I was gonna say, I think one duel in the anime legitimately comes down to "the card I have keeping you from attacking me is also the only thing keeping one of your monsters from falling on the rest of them and squishing them, because you played them too close together." I'd kind of love to see a show with actual card game strategy, sideboarding against the opponent, switching between decks every arc, and stuff like that.
This is the real way we played Yugioh as kids. We made up stories and whoever had the cooler card won lmao. This is so hilariously relatable and nostalgic
This was actually close to how the very first duel to ever exist went. Blue-Eyes committed suicide because its loyalty was to Yugi's grandpa. Yugi then promptly used monster reborn on it and won.
Yugi’s “not so fast” and “that’s not all” were so accurate, holy shit I didn’t think people could still make funny original Yu-Gi-Oh parodies in 2022. Great stuff.
This video urged me to finally watch YGO. I was depressed at the time and watching it became a sort of emotional crutch for me. I'm in a better place now, and YGO means a lot to me. Thanks for everything.
Tbf, the opponent was playing hacks as well, saying things like his monsters can't be attacked because they are underwater or that the amount of space for Yugi's monster shrunk with every turn.
to be fair, that was from the first arc where the cardgame had any significant role in the plot, and do at that point there were still no real rules. also it was apparently based on a cardgame where that was actually thing that might reasonably happen i guess, dont know for sure, just heard about it.
@@not_avaliable The cardgame had loads of role in the plot. The plot of DK was Pegasus, or a Representative of his, beating Yugi at cards so the Big 5 would gave him control of the company. The Dueling was rather important.
That Season One logic was insane. I remember that floating castle just falling because Yugi broke the floatation ring. Like..that’s not how a card game works just cause they were using holograms.
Duelist Kingdom was written before any actual game existed, so aside from the VERY rough rules that Takahashi wrote out in the first Yugi vs Kaiba duel, it really was just made up on the fly. In the manga, some monsters have % based dodging, it's hilarious.
The end with the heart-to-heart talk and Lord of D helping Gardna overcome his fear of heights was the most wholesome ending and Kaiba coming up with that part makes it even more funny AND wholesome! 😂 Loved every second of this! 💜🙏
While the logic is fittingly ridiculous, I do like when the holo manifestation of the cards’ abilities enabled creative options and actual tactics you could give orders for. That basically ended after the show’s first arc, though.
To spoil the fun the shadow realm was just made up for the American dub. OG they just dead and in the manga….. yea you think it was a horror manga with the amount of death in it.
I asked chatgpt to generate the therapy between blue eye and lord of dragon. Here's the therapy. Enjoy. Lord of Dragons: Hello Blue-Eyes, how are you feeling today? Blue-Eyes White Dragon: I am feeling nervous, Lord of Dragons. Lord of Dragons: Nervous about what? Blue-Eyes White Dragon: Physical contact. Ever since I was reborn, I have developed a fear of it. Lord of Dragons: I understand. That can be a difficult thing to overcome. But I am here to help. Can you tell me more about your fear? Blue-Eyes White Dragon: I am afraid that if I allow someone to touch me, I will be hurt or damaged in some way. Lord of Dragons: That is a common fear, but it's important to understand that physical contact can also bring comfort and security. Let's work on building your trust and confidence in physical touch. Blue-Eyes White Dragon: How do I do that? Lord of Dragons: We can start with small steps. Perhaps we can try holding a dragon scale or a feather together and gradually progress to more intimate touch. Blue-Eyes White Dragon: That sounds manageable. I am willing to try. Lord of Dragons: Excellent! I am proud of you for taking this step towards overcoming your fear. I have faith in you, Blue-Eyes. With time and practice, Blue-Eyes learned to trust and feel comfortable with physical contact. They no longer feared it and were able to enjoy the comfort and security that it brings. Lord of Dragons: Well done, Blue-Eyes. I am proud of your progress. You have overcome your fear and become stronger for it.
But it wouldn't make sense since logically, the infinite kuribohs would still make infinite noise. Fun fact: the match would have ended when the kuribohs started screaming, since a loud enough noise can create a black hole apparently.
They got better about this in later arcs but yes in the first season especially they also treated dual monsters like a dungeons and dragons type of RPG so that’s why they were allowed to make up weird rules like that.
Years later and I still remember that episode where yugi had his completey normal monster stone Soilder destroy the magic card mystic moon by simply having him just stab it. Like he just decided he can do that and stabbed the fricken moon.
I love how in the show kaiba was the one using those kind of rules all the time. The thing that is stuck in my mind is the moment someone couldnt attack kaibas monster, because his monster is flying and the attacker cant reach his monster.

That's exactly what happens on a tabletop game when the DM doesn't know what he is doing :D
If I'm not mistaken an earlier portion of the manga actually does have Yami Bakura trapping people in a D&D like game and Yugi and his friends end up playing it too.
@@digitaldritten It happens before the Death T arc which the DM anime's first episode is based on (Kaiba's kidnapping of Yugi's grandpa and loss to Exhodia); it definitely woudn't be in this show though it might have been in the Toei anime which I haven't seen personally.
Me and my brother used to play this way from time to time when we were kids and had lots of fun moments. The card "Gamble" throwing coins to the opposing dragons' eyes and killing them was a classic.
I mean, to be entirely fair, you probably can’t safely traverse an arena of that size to read your opponent’s card. It’s probably faster to just declare every card’s flavor text.
@@absentcoder4552 isn't that what the screens are for? I know the giant screens of the stationary dual stations aren't a thing anymore, but the Dual Disk has a screen on it. Although, I guess it'd destroy the flow of the fight if you had to look down every ten seconds to figure out what's on the field..
To be fair, if they were playing like real life pro YGO players, 95% of audience wouldn't understand wtf was just happening. And the battle would end in just a minute.
I remember one moment from my childhood playing Yu-Gi-Oh, it was pain in the ass because exactly of situation like this. Where you just start to make up rules in your favor and betting on the dumbness of your opponent. Haja loved it
The funniest thing is every since the Duelist Kingdom arc, Kaiba has been following all the rules while Yugi pulls out some sort of BS along with magical cheating in every duel. There are some exceptions but feels like Kaiba and Joey were the only ones really just playing the game lol
Kaiba had cards that were more powerful than they are in the actual game (compare Card of Demise), and Joey had insane luck. Just admit it's a Shonen show and move on.
As someone with a peanut allergy, I've never laughed harder at the big shield gardna dialog exchange. "I'm sure you know of big shield gardnas peanut allergy" "HIS WHAT!?" "And guess what Lord of D had for lunch today"
My headcanon is that the real rules of Duel Monsters (as created by Pegasus) were always those of the ancient wizard shadow-games. The rule books and card texts can't explain every possible interaction between all different Egyptian spells and monsters as they actually worked 4000 years ago, so they just tell you the effects that you can normally expect from each card. But Yami was there and played the real thing, so he knows all the secret obscure stuff that Kuriboh or Catapult Turtle or Dark Magician can _actually_ do. He is literally playing a different game with a secret ruleset that supersedes the one everybody else thought applied.
@@digitaldritten I guess. But that can be hand-waved in any number of ways. Like, he only forgot some things. Or he doesn't remember the ancient card-interactions but finds them anyway because they exist and he has a supernatural ability to win at games.
Well, that's not exactly playing in good faith, is it? Arguably he's just cheating, at the very least the game is not fair. Why take pride in winning an unfair game?
This makes sense, as every new villain who came later seemed to know card secrets or rules even Yami was unaware of which unlocked his memories throughout the series even further
2:10 hes actually right lord of d is the lord of all dragons so he knows exactly how to help a fearless children dragon to become strong and overcome their fears because lord of d care of every dragon in the world just like jesus
Remember when Yugi used Polymerization to fuse that skeleton mammoth with magic arrow and used it to melt Kaiba's Blue-eyes Ultimate Dragon? It was truly one of the moments in history.
Is that the fight that Kaiba won by standing on a ledge so that if he lost the Shockwave would send him plummeting to his doom, thus causing Yugi to forfeit?
Ah, Pegasus's Duelist Kingdom era, where you cannot attack a monster because it's too damn dark, or the monster is underwater and fowarding time actually aged your monster.
my favorite was how he used summon skull with mekiru (however you spell it) and it conducted lightning from summoned skull through the water to electrocute something. The TCG had to literally redesign summoned skull twice just to make it go along with Atem's narrative
Plot twist: The reason Big Shield Gardna always switches to attack mode after he is attacked while in defense mode is because the front of his shield is brown...and peanuts are brown...and therefore Gardna is indirectly affected via his peanut allergy!
This feels like that one time I was playing with 2 friends in a 1v1v1 and we devolved into activating cards but giving them random effects instead of what was on the card
I was barely conscious of Yu-Gi-Oh even existing when I was younger but this had me laughing hysterically by the end. That's how you know someone's a good comedian.
This is absolutely how every child played the game. Also, great use of the original soundtrack. I don't care how many people have seen the Japanese version, the ost is still underrated.
This is the most realistic representation of my friends and me playing Yu-Gi-Oh! as kids. We had literaly no idea what we were doing 90% of the time. And the other 10% we got completely wrong. But it was a ton of fun, so there's that. XD
I remember that we played all the games we had in elementary school exactly like that. We just made up our own rules and it was fun. And when then someone came and knew the real rules, we still liked our own rules more. xD
MY-PHILOSOPHY:"INNER-STRENGTH" I have found that simply "loving myself" (inner-child) is a powerful tool against most types of social-dependency/vulnerability. .
............................. "Evil" is the antithesis to the virtue: 'humanity'. Humanity is the characteristic that defines the human spirit. Humanity is symbiosis across humans and society. 'Humanity' exceeds 'social-darwinism'. ............................. NEURO-PERSONALITY .............................

To intelligent readers (who do 'not’ have a ‘pathological disregard for rationality and reality'). I recommend researching 'narcissistic personality disorder' (NPD) / 'cluster-B'; and know that they are the 'root of all evil' (especially 'ESFJ/ESTJ-narcissist'; Myers-Briggs reference, look it up)! European 'ESFJ' are the worst personality type, and they are responsible for inventing 'racism' and colonization! It is in their neuro-psychology!!! They are extremely 'manipulative' and often use 'looking pretty' to distract others from the witch's mind-games / mind-r@pe, e.g. gaslighting, playing the victim/damsel in distress, creating "flying-monkeys", and 'bribing' others (with money or BJ) to attack, or at times, kill someone for her. When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till. xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists. ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism). Lastly, ISFJ are notorious for impersonating other people's identities IRL and on the internet. SUMMARY Evil personality: 'ESFJ' (ALL), ESTJ (Cluster-b), ISFJ-2W1 (covert-narc/enabler).

You know, as much of a cheater as he was in season 1 (like everyone else) I think Kaiba is one of the only characters to actually follow the rules, save for a few cards that never made it into print.
