Yup. Manga Yami also originally looked closer in age to Yugi. He had a rounder face with softer features (crazy eyes not withstanding) compared to later Yami Yugi, who looks like a grown ass man. Early Yami Yugi littlekuriboh_reviews_yu-gi-oh_1.jpg vs a later "Duel Monsters" Chapter. tumblr_inline_of7nmjWyAB1s8ws28_500.png It's worth noting that recent Yugioh projects like Bonds Beyond Time and Dark Side of Dimensions have gotten around the "Why does Yugi grow two feet when he changes?" issue by....simply making him taller lol.

Member Oct 25, 2017 8,461 As everyone else has said, it always felt like it was just for the audience and the actual characters just saw and heard Yugi suddenly adopt a more determined expression and voice.

True, but it feels like Yugi always cheated the most. The one example that always sticks out to me was when he summoned a monster inside Kaibas Blue Eyes and made it rot and die. Like... that's not how this works!! Lagamorph

Kaiba's constant denial of magic forces is one of his most endearing character traits. It didn't what crazy shit he saw or had done to him. It was all tricks and holograms and no one was gonna tell him otherwise. Imperial Bishop

It's the same voice, except with more confidence and less polite. Even in the dub it's just Dan Green doing a meek voice for Yugi and hamming it up when they change. Zero315

Member Oct 25, 2017 278 Yugi doesn't actually change height when he transforms and in the Japanese version his voice doesn't get deeper, he just talks more confidently/ arrogantly. The change in look and the perceived change in height is just to show the reader/viewer the difference between meek little Yugi and confident Yami Yugi. KCS

Yeah she's really awful in the manga, even going as far as to get herself almost murdered just so Atem can show up for her. That one moment on duelist kingdom before the Panik duel is the only time she really comes close to becoming a decent character and then its ruined. massoluk

It's not really explained well outside of the manga, but Duelist Kingdom uses a completely different rules where cards have completely different interactions(which the writer was obviously making up as he goes along). Yugi plays a strategy deck where his cards are meant to be flexible and have combos/strategies for any situation(which is why he always won Duelist Kingdom duels with a brand new combo based on card iterations). It's best to just think that Duelist Kingdom and Battle City(and by extention the real life game) as completely different games that use the same cards.

WOW OK SO ACTUALLY HE FUSED GAIA THE DARK KNIGHT WITH CURSED DRAGON INTO GAIA, THE CURSED DRAGON KNIGHT, AND HE LOADED IT ONTO CATAPULT TURTLE, AND HE DIDN'T SHOOT THE FLOATING CASTLE, WHICH IS CALLED THE CASTLE OF DARK ILLUSIONS, HE SHOT THE CASTLES LEVITATION RING WHICH ALLOWED IT TO FLOAT, AND BECAUSE HE PLACED THE CASTLE OF DARK ILLUSIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS MONSTER FIELD TO PROVIDE A BLANKET OF SHADOWS FOR HIS MONSTERS, IT ENDED UP FALLING ON IT PeakPointMatrix

I'll always love that Yugi just murdered a guy and his only reaction, literal seconds later, is complaining that he didn't get to eat his burger, all while the guy continues to burn.

There was a 'Season 0' anime that never made it out of Japan based on the original manga.
