I wish that Kisara mattered more in the Duel Monsters series. She's the source for Kaiba's ace monster after all, and it's quite obvious that Kaiba/Priest Seto and her are a thing. In fact, she might be the one person who keeps him gounded
Well. She kinda mattered a lot because she was the Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Especially if we go by all the Manga contents, I think Kisara was used pretty well. I would also love to see more regarding her, but I dont think it would be necessary!
To answer the question as to why Seto tells Mokuba to never trust anyone but each other is because of their family. When their parents died, the brother's aunts and uncles took the wealth of their parents and instead of taking care of the boys, they dropped them off at an orphanage. The relatives they were supposed to rely on for love and support outright abandoned them after stripping the young boys of any money they would have obtained. Following this, during their time at the orphanage, many people came by and wanted to adopt Seto because of his high intellect, but didn't want to also take Mokuba because he was just a normal kid with nothing special about him. When Seto refused to leave without Mokuba, Seto would also get passed over in the process. These aspects of their lives taught them that, at the time, adults were cruel, selfish and only cared about their own interest, never paying mind to even children who needed help and love. That's why Seto developed the mindset he did far before Gozaburo tempered it and pushed Seto to the brink. They were shown through their early life that people are vile by nature and to overcome them, you can't connect to them.
Yea. I didn't mention all of that since I only talked about what we got in the Manga. And all of that was Anime only. But I still appreciate you writing it out!
@Netherwolf6100 Your explanation includes anime original stuff added by the anime staff and not in Takahashi's source material manga. Seto and Mokuba's backstory was explained in chapter 40 in the span of 3 pages. Correcting your mistakes with dialogue straight from the Japanese version of the manga starting from the beginning: Seto didn't tell Mokuba to never trust adults. He told Mokuba "Don't cry. I'll make sure we have a good life someday. But never let your guard down. If you show them weakness then its all over." Next, it was never specifically explained who they were left with after their dad died. It just said "our relatives took their inheritance" which led to them being put in an orphanage. Next, many people didn't come by nor wanted to do adopt Seto for his high intellect and didn't want to adopt Mokuba because he was normal. Gozabura came one day "looking to adopt a child". "Seto knew Gozaburo was the champion of Chess". Seto spoke with Gozaburo and made a bet that if he won, he'd also adopt Mokuba. That's why Mokuba stated Seto "set up a cheating game" after Seto won. That's it. Seto didn't develop a mindset before Gozaburo appeared. He changed on the day he met Gozaburo when he saw an opportunity. Then it got worse living under Gozaburo. To reiterate, you used anime information, which is not canon to Takahashi's source material.
@@hungerxhunger2548 Please do not spread misinformation. It's not canon at all. Takahashi did not approve anything because as a MANGA-KA, especially in the 90's and 2000's, he was not involved with the anime adaptation of his manga. Once the anime is decided to be made, everything is left to the anime staff. The only confirmed involvement Takahashi has ever had with his anime adaptations (1998 and 2000 series) was with the original 19998 anime. Takahashi stated in an interview back then that he went to the recording session and talked about his experience there. Next, Megumi Ogata (original voice of Yugi/Yami Yugi) stated in her tweet after Takahashi passed that she heard it was Takahashi who recommened her to voice Yugi/Yami Yugi. This holds weight because Akira Toriyama (creator of Dragon Ball manga) recommended that Masako Nozawa be the voice of Goku back when Dragon Ball anime was decided. That's literally the extent of manga-ka's connection to their anime adaptation. Takahashi did not get involved with the Yugioh anime until GX, where he created the setting of the story and the main character (plus monster designs), after being asked to do it. GX had no source material manga, which is why Takahashi became involved.
@@rob19ny When asked he said he enjoyed the anime and agreed with most of the cut/changes. Tokyo Ghoul author made a fan fic about Hiskoa's back story and Togashi liked it so much it became canon. Something can be canon even if it was not made by the original creator.
It all ties back to Kaiba's philosophy of "winning is everything" In his mind, if you're not strong enough to do something on your own through your own efforts, then you don't deserve it to begin with. That's why he's so adamant about being tough on Mokuba and teaching him to only trust in himself. Because Kaiba clawed his way out of poverty through his own cunning and skill. But ,Yugi/Atem are the only exception to this rule. No matter how hard he tries he can never *genuenly* surpass them. Its like an unstoppable force going against an immovable object. And this constant deconstruction of his ego and philosophy nearly drives Kaiba crazy in his obsessiom to duel Atem one more time. Just one more duel to prove that there is nothing he can't overcome But, eventually, Kaiba is forced to concede to the fact that he can't always win everything on his own. That sometimes you *do* need people you can rely on, lest you find yourself all alone.
Great video! I love the deep dive into the manga since it adds more motivation and explains why he is so passionate about having a duel with the Pharoah
Wow he did an amazing job. He legit solved one of my major confusions about the plot about dark side of dimensions and now he did it! Also adding season zero content into the video made me understand more about the series.
Kaiba went so far as to risking his own life to defeat Yugi not once but twice if we fast forward to Darkside of dimensions. This rivalry would have to be as extreme as Scorpion and Sub-Zero.
I think I can answer this question. Kaiba sees Atem as the closest thing to a friend in his world. It's like Vegeta when Goku was dead for 7 years. He felt lost. His only purpose was to surpass his rival and now he's gone. Never able to prove his worth. But with them gone, their goal in life is too. Atem and Kaiba pushed each other constantly and this whole movie was a pull on the heartstrings. Kaiba needing that closure. And in a way he finally gets to hang with his friend again in the end.
Amazing video. I'm honestly pretty upset that many other people just brush Kaiba off as being just "Another Vegeta" when in actuality it is much deeper than that. Can't watch past 11:45 due to spoilers, but I promise i'll come back when I finish the Duel Monsters series and the DSOD movie.
Only stating this because you said "Duel Monsters series". The Dark Side of Dimensions is a manga canon made by Takahashi for the 20th manga anniversary set after his original manga and Transcend Game. Both 1998 and 2000 anime adaptations altered his story and characters so severely that the original series has at least 3 different canons. Takahashi canon: Yugioh manga titled "Yu-Gi-Oh!" (343 chapters; very dark involving death, cursing, middle fingers blood, fanservice) > Transcend Game manga > The Dark Side of Dimensions Toei canon: "Yu-Gi-Oh!" (Series 1: loosely adapts 1st 59 chapters; leaves out a lot of chapters and adds original anime story and characters not in the manga; still dark with fanservice remaining close to the vision of the manga) Gallop/Konami canon: "Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters" (Series 2: loosely adapts chapter 60 to 343; altered the manga story and its characters and added original anime story in manga arcs; has to promote card game so its a childrens series in comparison with manga and Toei) > GX > 5D's.
@@guestb8389 If you are going to watch The Dark Side of Dimensions then the only thing that matters is the "Takahashi canon" since he, Kazuki Takahashi the creator of the Yugioh, made them himself and they are connected to each other and nothing else matters.
Thank you for this video! So many people fail to understand Kaiba because they didn't read the manga in order to get the full story! Also, thank you for explaining WHY Kaiba would slip back into his old self & some of the reasons for Transcend Game & Dark Side of Dimensions!
well, kaiba is my all time favourite character (tied to spiderman), I loved his cockiness and style. when i grew older and started reading about the competitive life of CEOS and their working environment i realized how much deep he actually was.
I wouldn't call Seto Kaiba an antagonist, but rather an anti hero. Sure, he would frequently oppose Yugi and Atem, but he wasn't always antagonistic towards them, and oftentimes would help Yugi out when the situation called for it. He definitely started off as more of a villain in the manga when he's first introduced to the reader, but he grows out of it as the series progressed, as we can see outlined in this video
@@matthewkuscienko4616 most supporting characters have started off as an antagonist/Villain at first before they transition into a help aid throughout most anime series they we all know about from shonen Jump franchise.
14:20 if it wasn’t an obsession and more of a passion to fight yugi, then what about the making of death T? He made that part of kaiba land specifically and only for yugi and if yugi lose death T 5, kaiba was gonna actually kill him. He did it all that craziness just so he could win against yugi. That sounds more of an obsession than passion. Of course, after kaiba gets out of his coma, I would say it was more of a passion than obsession
I love the video though I do agree in the dark side of dimensions. He finally gets to duel the pharaoh. Though wish we got to see how it played out and what fate awaits Kaiba
At the end of Dark Side of Dimensions, does Kaiba travel into the ancient past or into the realm of afterlife? That question has been itching for a while :D
Gozaburo wasn't at the orphanage to look for inheritor. he was just there for the PR. Kaiba is the one who sought adoption for himself and mokuba, unless there's something from the manga you haven't mentioned? That Gozaburo was hoping some kid would come along and impress him?
In addition besides being a rival to Yugi/atem he in his past life was a cousin if not the first cousin of the pharaoh so in a way blood runs deeper past time and space with them .
I personally don't hate DSoD, in fact exploring how Seto failed to implement lessons he learned and ultimately ended up on the same path he once was could've been great. If we actually got any of that. Not to mention the only real insight into relationship between Yugi (who he by now should asknowledge as real opponent) and Seto is one art, which is sorta canon but we don't really know. Honestly, I'd preferred if Seto started building some sort of friendship with Yugi. Because Atem is the symbol of his obsession with past, not Yugi, Yugi could've been his gateway into the future where he is finally free.
@@kindlingking I agree with you but don't get me wrong, as I say I do not hate this movie either. It is why I prefer Seto during season 5, he is no longer agaist Atem just for revenge, have achieve something good and do not impose him a duel by not going into the tournament except to learn a lesson to Ziegried.
@@kindlingking The issue is that Kaiba and Yugi in the manga don't really a relationship. It was always about Atem with Yugi sorta stuck in the crossfire. Especially when you considered that Atem is probably the only person in the world who can understand Kaiba, even more so then his brother, which is why he isn't taking Atem's lost well. The whole salty runback is Kaiba's way of mourning, which is why he doesn't really care about Yugi.
Takahashi explained in an interview why Kaiba was obsessed with Yami Yugi (not Yugi) and their rivalry. Gozaburo ingrained into Kaiba that losing a game means death. After Gozaburo died, Kaiba had no one to challenge him in that way. Months later, he faces Yami Yugi and learns of the Yami no Game during that battle. Yami Yugi stated that the loser with experience a Penalty Game similar to death. Kaiba becomes fascinated because he just found the person who reminded him of Gozaburo that he can play such a game with. After experiencing the Penalty Game, Kaiba becomes obsessed with Yami Yugi. He creates DEATH-T and creates the Battle Box, which created visuals to give the loser the experience of death. All in all, Yami Yugi is Kaiba's one true rival. No one can else satisfy his urges. And as we know in the manga's story, Kaiba knows the difference between Yugi and Yami Yugi, which is why in the last chapter of Duelist Kingdom, Kaiba tells normal Yugi to "tell the other Yugi that our battle isn't over" and he envisions Yami Yugi when he says it.
@MiruyaYT Oh snap. My post went through. I been trying to reply since you replied, but my post kept disappearing because YT makes posts with links disappear then they considered me spam after that. Of course I can give you a source. I wouldn't wrongly use someone's name for my own agenda. I only use facts to make my point.
It was weird to me that Kaiba wanted to duel Atem again after he lost to Yugi in DSOD. I'm mean if Kaiba lost to Yugi, shouldnt he first try to win against him before he duels Atem again?
Except he didn't lose to Yugi because the duel DID NOT FINISH. Literally afterward, Kaiba sacrifices himself and tells Yugi to call Atem so that he can defeat Aigami. If Yugi won, Kaiba would have acknowledged Yugi and believed he could have defeated Aigami instead of Atem. You're not paying attention to what you watching?
@@rob19ny Kaiba was about to lose to Yugi and Atem appeared in the tag duel against Aigami. Its the same as Yusei and Kalin's duel, Yusei was about to lose. What i didnt like about this movie is that Yugi used monsters that are similar to Atem's monsters instead of the deck he used against Atem in the ceremonical duel which kinda ruined Yugi's character development.
Kaibas Goal isn't to defeat the "strongest" or someone stronger than him. His goal is to defeat just Atem. That Duel against Yugi had nothing to do with his goal except for bringing the Pharaoh back.
He literally said it. In Chapter 40 right at the first page of the Flashback. The 4th panel says "Listen to me! If you show weakness, it's over!! Don't Trust anyone!"
@@MiruyaYT Which version do you have? It's not stated in the Japanese version (I have the bunkoban) nor the English version. Seto tells Mokuba "If you show them weakness then its all over". The next line of dialogue is from Mokuba saying "That's what brother told me." The English version is 1:1 with the Japanese version on that panel.
I think the anime says he won fairly and the manga that he cheated. I think it's more thematic that Seto wins fairly thanks to his intellect but ends up being pushed into becoming a cheat by the abuse of his father and has to find himself again.
@@MiruyaYT yes it is kaiba only cheated in the anime books and the manga but in the english dub of yugioh in the chess match kaiba beat his step father gozoburo kaiba in the chess match clean. they showed it in the virtual world arc two during the first yugioh enter the show realm when noah interrupted the battle city finals and took control of the kaibacorp blimp and then trapped yugioh and his friends in virtual reality they showed it in the flashbacks to kaiba and mokuba's childhood. p.s and one more thing i've never read the yugioh anime books or the manga only heard of it.

What i didnt like about this movie is that Yugi used monsters that are similar to Atem's monsters instead of the deck he used against Atem in the ceremonical duel which kinda ruined Yugi's character development.
@@Theloster Makes sense why you didn't understand something so simple. Lol Good luck.
@@rob19ny Maybe to you "about to lose" doesnt count a loss, but to me it is.
Kaibas Goal isn't to defeat the "strongest" or someone stronger than him. His goal is to defeat just Atem. That Duel against Yugi had nothing to do with his goal except for bringing the Pharaoh back.
Kaiba is the eternal rival to Yugi/Yami Yugi (Atem)
Yes!
Kaiba is a cool character at times badass duelist but very arrogant and selfish.
1:09 The trust thing is anime original, which is why you don't know the cause. lol It is not stated in their backstory in chapter 40.
He literally said it. In Chapter 40 right at the first page of the Flashback. The 4th panel says "Listen to me! If you show weakness, it's over!! Don't Trust anyone!"
@@MiruyaYT Which version do you have? It's not stated in the Japanese version (I have the bunkoban) nor the English version. Seto tells Mokuba "If you show them weakness then its all over". The next line of dialogue is from Mokuba saying "That's what brother told me." The English version is 1:1 with the Japanese version on that panel.
@@rob19ny I went by the official Viz Translation
I thought Kaiba beat Gozaburo fair and square
That is not the case haha
I think the anime says he won fairly and the manga that he cheated. I think it's more thematic that Seto wins fairly thanks to his intellect but ends up being pushed into becoming a cheat by the abuse of his father and has to find himself again.
@@MiruyaYT yes it is kaiba only cheated in the anime books and the manga but in the english dub of yugioh in the chess match kaiba beat his step father gozoburo kaiba in the chess match clean. they showed it in the virtual world arc two during the first yugioh enter the show realm when noah interrupted the battle city finals and took control of the kaibacorp blimp and then trapped yugioh and his friends in virtual reality they showed it in the flashbacks to kaiba and mokuba's childhood. p.s and one more thing i've never read the yugioh anime books or the manga only heard of it.
KIsara.....
Huh?
@@MiruyaYT The ending
I love Sakura
I love Bakura
@@MiruyaYT so do I he’s my Yugioh Husbando can we share him please as our husbando?
Cuz Seto is the man gets beat by a child and lost everything
3000 year old pharaohs are my favorite childs
"This will be the final, true duel!"
Draw the worst card combis ever from his deck, 3 turns in a row and lost practicly in one instance.^^
Thats what it would look like in RL probably haha
