    Thanks for checking this one out lads! Got a question for ya:
    After hearing the explanation of all seven, which Millennium Item do you think has the best ability in your opinion? Curious to hear you answers! ;)

      It's got to be the Ring, being able to trap people's souls/consciousness into inanimate objects is pretty crazy. I think the Key would probably be the next most overpowered, and I almost want to go with that one for being able to enter a person's soul.

      I have to say the puzzle just because ive played yugis deck before online and him wining at all is crazy unlikely I mean he has no defined win condition in his deck other than the heart of the cards. Not to mention the fact that if the definition of game can be extended to a competition between two or more people any venture he takes part in while he has the puzzle it makes him near unbeatable.

    @AnimeAngel88 6 років тому +638

    A couple things you need to know.
    You neglected to mention that the original name of the Puzzle was the Pendant. After Atem sealed his soul and Zorc's, it was broken and became known as the Puzzle.
    Regarding the Eye, and how Bakura stole it so easily, remember that Pegasus was weakened from his duel with Yugi. Bakura gloats about how he was at full strength compared to Pegasus at that time. Thus, Pegasus was physically incapable of fighting off Bakura and stop him from stealing the eye.
    And something that is not explained in the anime or manga is that the 7 items represent evil and Justice. The Eye, Ring and Rod represents Evil, and this shows with how each major antagonist has one. The Necklace, Key and Scales represent Justice. The Puzzle is the most powerful because it represents both, and that is what the unity it talks about really means. A unity of good and evil, order and chaos, light and darkness.

      It might've been skipped on purpose. When you think about it, it would take several more minutes for some people to understand that (which would bore others).
      And the ancient priests didn't appear evil, otherwise, the millennium items can probably teleport or something (not sure about the manga, but with the anime, Tristan flung the Millennium Ring away, and later it had reappeared on Bakura...
      (I can't really explain it, but yeah, some of your reasoning may need to be thought out a little bit more...)

      Nonono...I think your confused. That's MAGIC, where you need to literally update every 2 years or it's unplayable at tournaments.
      This is Yu-Gi-Oh!, where you can go to a tournament playing with anchient cards, and probably lose, but you are still allowed to play.
      There also aren't many cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! that cost over $100 dollars.
      I saw a Jake planeswalker for $200 and a 1 mana cost 2/2 goblin with some broken ass effect for $50 at my local card shop, and both cards are legal to play.

      @@skullsquad900 Hm... let's actually look at the facts, shall we?
      1. MTG releases are generally more expensive. YGO releases new sets a lot quicker.
      Despite that, some YGO cards can become extremely expensive when they're meta as well.
      Overall, a competitive YGO tournament player needs to actually spend more money on the game as they have to pay for more decks than a Magic player while it is easier for a casual player to get into YGO because the individual decks are cheaper.
      That doesn't change that BOTH are fucking money sinks. As is the whole fucking TCG genre.
      2. MTG decks usually are playable for their entire tournament rotation. YGO decks can become obsolete after the next pack and definitely become obsolete after the next ban list.
      Sometimes Magic decks which were released at the beginning of a rotation still win tournaments at the end of their rotation. Sometimes they don't. In YGO, you can be almost certain the newest legal release before the tournament wins. And sometimes old decks become viable after a ban list again... until new releases come out. And some decks will just always be dead even in traditional format.
      3. Both constantly break their own game with what the cards do (and don't). But unlike YGO where the newest cards are usually the most broken ones, Magic and its rotation (which, BTW, is a system that EVERY TCG except YGO uses) allow to either speed up or slow down the meta. Some of the oldest cards are also the most broken ones, ever.
      YGO meta is almost impossible to slow down. To do so would require an insanely long ban list. Konami has managed to slow it down somewhat, but they'd never be able to get to where they started. Magic COULD do that if they wanted to.
      4. The Magic system works. It's pretty clear cut and everything we need to know we can see immediately. YGO players already have trouble with chain resolving.
      In Magic, you need to know a ton of effects, such as first strike, doublestrike, fear... while in YGO you need to know the rulings for all of your cards. Light and Darkness Dragon being the prime example. In short: Magic is much more clean.
      5. Magic has a lot more ways you can play than YGO. Some of these decks for specialized formats can be pretty expensive - about 2k bucks - but on the flipside... you have that deck forever and don't ever need a new one for that format. Maybe a few special cards here and there if you want to boost it a bit. YGO pretty much only has standard, traditional, old school (which isn't really a format but rather a mindset of the oldest players as there are no tournaments for that and all) and GOAT. Magic has equivalents for ALL these formats because theoretically, every single rotation is its own format AND because of special ways such as Commando which differ completely from anything the game usually offers or YGO has to offer.

    I think Pegasus lost the eye because he gambled it in a Shadow Game against Bakura, with the winner getting the other’s item. Because the bet was lost, the Eye allowed itself to be taken. That’s the anime at any rate.
    The scales are basically an incarnation from the original Book of the Dead. It is the same ritual for someone living, rather than the soul in the afterlife.

      When I was talking about the millennium eye's wish I put a little text over that segment adding this, as I realized I forgot that part earlier.

      Yeah, I guess you can kind of argue that the puzzle granted him the wish by making it so that Yugi and Atem has a strong bond, but Atem himself said that the puzzle strengths the bond between the user and the people around them, so again, the wish did NOTHING!!!!
      Yugi should ask for a refund!!!

      If you think deeper on the scale, Yugi is a descendant of the Pharaoh Atem and all of Yugis friends/family short of Kaiba are all wielders of the Millennium Items in the Ancient Egyptian past. Why Seto or Grandpa never got to wield said items are beyond me or why we never got to see the Scale used in the anime is also beyond me. If my memory served me correctly, Atem-Puzzle, Kaiba-Rod, Thief King Bakura- Ring, Servant Tea Necklace, (Grandpa Yugi) Key, Servant Joey Eye, Servant Shadi Scale I think that is who had them in the past.

    I believe the reason the Millennium Puzzle was considered the most powerful is that it grants its chosen Pharaoh the ability to summon all three Egyptian Gods, which are considered to be the most powerful of all Ka. When their powers are merged together, a being who's the very antithesis of Zorc Necrophades (the Great God of Evil) can be summoned, known as Horakhty (the Creator of Light).

    The power of the Millennium Scale and Ka(soul) was actually based on Egyptian mythology.
    If the heart was found to be lighter or equal in weight to the feather of Maat, the deceased had led a virtuous life and would go on to Aaru(Ka/Soul of Nile Delta). A heart which was unworthy was devoured by the goddess Ammit (part lion, hippopotamus and CROCODILE) and its owner condemned to remain in the Duat.

  • @zyxaqc
    @zyxaqc 5 місяців тому +5

    My headcanon for why the Puzzle and Eye were so powerful is because of each user's personal sacrifice. Atem sacrificed his life in the past and Pegasus sacrificed his eyeball. Since the items were created by ritual sacrifice, giving something up to them probably powers them up. This could even explain why the Puzzle in the past was so powerful that it was only worn by the pharaoh. By asking his brother to perform the ritual, Aknamkanon inadvertently sacrificed his humanity in exchange for the items.

    Also according to the DSOD movie, which follows the manga continuity, the Rod, Ring, and Eye are dark, the Scale, Key, and Necklace are light, while the Puzzle is a balance of both, which I guess is because destiny had it so that Yugi (light) and Atem (dark) would become two halves of one and learn from each other.
    I'm also guessing that the dark items all had a shard of Zorc in it, which is why they're dark in the first place. Personally I believe that Yami Marik came to be because of the dark influence of the Rod fused with Marik's pain to form an alter ego, because, well, just feeling very angry on its own doesn't necessarily result in an alter ego. (Not saying Yami Marik was partially Zorc though, just that he was influenced by it.)

      @AngelKnightZeo713 6 років тому +2

      That would be a good theory (It's been a while since I saw the DSOD movie) but it was explained in both versions how the Ring is the "darkest" Millennium item since it was within the Millennium Stone for the longest during its creation, thereby having the most of Zorc's essence inside. Yami Marik flat out stated in both versions how he wasn't born due to the Millennium items (like how Thief King Bakura & Pharaoh Atem were brought to the modern day due to their respective hosts), he was strictly born due Marik's anger & hatred for his father.

  • @Minohorse

    I don't know if I can even call it a theory but, regarding the Millennium Eye, considering what you said in the video that:
    >The Millennium Eye works even on other Millennium Item holders
    >The Millennium Eye couldn't protect Pegasus from Bakura
    So, not denying that it probably just was a plothole, it is possible that the Millennium Eye was actually an exception of the rule, that in exchange to being able to bypass the defences of the other Millennium Items, it also couldn't defend itself from them.

    Given the lack of The Eye emblem on the Millennium key, I assume that the rule that items can't be effected by each other doesn't apply to it. As for the items that do effect each other despite having an eye, I think it's a matter of the will of the users. When they were first created the users all could be argued to share not only the same goals (being servants of Atem) but that they're will to succeed was also equal. However, do to the difference in goals of the new barers, it can be thought that some had stronger will power than others. This could answer why the Millennium Eye didn't stop Bakorah from taking it.

The Sennen items grant their user one wish. Pegasus's wish was to SEE not touch Cyndia that's what happened there.
    It should be noted that the ring will corrupt whatever wish you make on it which is why everyone that's ever been around Bakura always ended up comatose after playing a game with him. He gets to play with them forever...as figurines.

      Well, no. You'll never get the original story from the dub... they changed a couple of things. For instance, there really isn't a Shadow Realm... whenever someone was sent there in the dub, in reality they had been killed.

    It's not an Eye of Anubis. It's the Eye of Horus. There are a few things you may have missed (Plot wise), but they're really not that important. For example, After a Shadow Game, espeically after between two Millinium Items, the losing owner's powers will be severely weakened making the stealing of said Millinium Items far more easy. And ALL of the Millinum Items have the power to seal souls away, but we only see a few that actively do so and I'm sure each of their methodologies depend upon the items themselves.
    The writer did have a completely different idea for the series as a whole before Duel Monsters became such a popular idea among fans.

      Actually, yes. In the manga, when we see the past and how they used the millenium items... the monsters are basically stands. Except the millenium items lets them save the stands of other people.
      Bakura the thief manifested his monster without a millenium item, but he could only use one monster

    The duelist kingdom “plot holes“ likely have to do with the user skills with the items. Also the millennium Key is a ankh which largely represents life while Anubis is the judge of the dead. Which Anibis’s classic judgment method is demonstrated by the Millennium scales shadow game.

    The Puzzle- Atem’s Luck ability can actually be used in Duel Links. It’s known as Destiny Draw. If you ever lose 2000 LP you can draw any card you want from your deck. If you were to consider that canon it could also explain why even with a “Luck Boost” Atem and Yugi could still lose sometimes. It’s not something he can just do on the fly. Just like how it often played out in the Shadow Games in Egypt it requires a toll before you can use it. The Unity part I agree is pretty vague, but I think it could explain why the Pharaoh had priests who used the items instead of just using all of them himself. The Puzzle is a tool for designating priests and potentially controlling them through the items. So the Puzzle acted as a master control terminal for the other items. Which is why it would be considered the strongest.
    The Eye- I would argue that the Millenium Eye’s True power was the Power of Vision. Yes we saw the other power’s like reading the mind and sealing Souls in Cards. But when you think about it that’s really just an application of the basic abilities that all the item’s share. We saw Atem’s Puzzle do lots of creepy stuff too. Like the mind crushing. But what points me to the Eyes main power being Vision is the focus on sight. Seeing cards, and memories. Not just that it can also produce visions projected from the host’s own mind. Visions so authentic you could liken that to a form of wish granting ability no?
    The Ring- Most of the Ring’s abilities were pretty self explanatory. Except one. How could Bakura overpower Pegasus and his eye so easily? You could speculate that the Ring also has the power to cancel out the other items. (The Laser Beams) The Ring’s ability to enable somebody to locate anything they desire was probably programmed into the Ring with the main idea that whoever wore the ring would inevitably seek out the other items. The neutralizing ability of the ring was probably a failsafe to ensure that the Ring’s corresponding Priest would be able to retrieve the items if they ever fell into dangerous hands (which is ironic) It’s also possible that the reason the Ring was so overpowered was due to the presence of Zorc Himself who was said to equal the power of all the items in total.
    The Rod- This item I think was made specifically for military use. With this you could transmit/receive information with ease as well as command troops effortlessly. The Blade of the Rod alongside its use for recording the Pharaoh’s biography could also double as a melee weapon, however I can think of another use given the history. It’s possible that the Rod could have also been used to make improvised carvings to summon the Ka with.
    The Necklace- Divination aside I think the necklace also preserves the memory of the Priestess who once wielded it. Thus allowing her to reincarnate through the Host. Whenever the host uses it to look back, I believe they are seeing the memory from the Priestess’s point of view through the necklace itself. Like a recording on security cameras. As for how it can see the future, The Necklace’s memory I think works both ways. We see both it’s past and it’s future. As well as the fate of the people that encounter it. However that doesn’t mean the host understands or accurately knows everything she is witnessing. Because while the Priestess is the host it’s actually the Necklace’s memory, Or rather the Camera’s feed that she is seeing. Making her fallible predictions basically a user error of sorts. The Necklace wasn’t wrong, but she was.
    The Scales- Definitely a Judge’s best friend. Enforcing Law and Order would definitely be a lot easier when you have the power to not only know instantly when somebody was lying but also to instantly kill them with extreme prejudice. I think it’s safe to say this item highlights the kind of era that Atem lived in. He had many enemies even within his own ranks. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if the scales was used for all kinds of hearings or interrogations. Considering the nature of their work, it’s also likely that the scales were also used to test the loyalty of those who were candidates for priesthood. You wouldn’t want a treacherous lying Spy so close to the Pharaoh.
    The Key- This one I think is the most cryptic. Imagine being able to invade someone’s home and completely reshaping their identity. With this you could interrogate anybody and then turn them into your slave. It wouldn’t be far fetched that the reason why so many of Atem’s allies and people were so zealous and loyal and why the Priests were so trustworthy, is that they were made to be that way with this key. Have an issue with Crime rates? No longer a problem. With this key you could change any criminal into a loyal citizen one by one. Ownership of this Key is pretty much owning the Key to the very Soul of Egypt. Which also begs another question. Was Atem always the way that he is, or was the key used to make him who he is. With the power to reshape the souls of others why stop at the people. After all the Perfect Nation can only be ruled by the Perfect Pharaoh.
