I just want to respond to everyone commenting that Kaiba definitely survived Dark Side of Dimensions and that Takahashi confirmed it with the art piece featured here: yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Spherium?file=Kaiba_VS_Yugi_-_Spherium.png First off, thank you for watching the video and I hope you enjoyed. The ending of the movie is left intentionally ambiguous and Takahashi has not confirmed either possibility. He specifically said that his illustration represents, "...just one possible future story." There is no canonical answer to whether or not Kaiba lived or died at the end of the film and likely will not be unless NAS, Konami, and Studio Bridge ever decide to use the character again in a future movie or series. This theory video is based on one interpretation of the film's ending. If Kaiba lived in your head canon, enjoy! I hope he Blue-Eyes'd the hell out of some people. But anyone leaving profane tirades in response to someone else's interpretation will be deleted. -SpellCommander
if kaiba did't survive after the movie he would never create the synchro summon, 'cause the movei is before gx series(the video still working anyway).it was a awesome theory
I don't want to come off as obnoxious, but whilst it's true that Takahashi hasn't given the movie a canon ending, it's still a fact that Kaiba did NOT die at the end. Why? because he had the Quantum Cube. See, in the prequel manga (TRANSCEND GAME) Kaiba had already figured out a way to reach the afterlife using not magic, but pure science; His Neurons project allowed him to focus the collective consciousness of people and use it to bridge our reality with that of the afterlife, but it was flawed and incomplete. Had Kaiba tried to reach Atem right there and then, he *would* have died. That's where the Quantum Cube comes in, that magical artifact allows Kaiba's science project to be stabilised and go from one reality to another without first killing him on the spot. And this is *very* relevant because it shows how much Kaiba has grown as a person. He no longer wants to depend on his technology and maths alone to do things, he is now open to the idea of using magic and taking leaps of faith in order to achieve things. It's something that is practically at the end of the movie when everyone is shocked when they realised Kaiba was right and Atem could come back once more. I'm just pointing this out because I'm getting tired of hearing people say that "omg Kaiba just killed himself to see the pharaoh!" when that's not at all what happened. It's true that Takahashi hasn't given a canon ending to the movie, yes, but if we go with the evidence presented in it, the least likely scenario would have been that Kaiba would deliberately kill himself just to see Atem when he had already rejected that option prior to the events of the movie.
I choose to believe that Kaiba created one of the greatest breakthroughs in science and energy production just so he could add some new blue-eyes white dragons to his deck. It's just too funny, that I can't accept any alternate motivation.
But in the Yugioh universe the card game is a full time job for adults. It's a way of life. There is a whole school created to teaching people to play duel monsters in order to excel in their adulthood. Hell even in real life more adults and older teens play yugioh than kids do.
@@krampusklaws2238 You are absolutely right. Not only in the show is it absolutely not for kids, it’s not for children. That’s just something really stupid a lot of people repeat because I think it’s funny. Dora the Explorer is a children’s show. Toy story and finding Nemo our family friendly shows. Just because children are capable of enjoying something it doesn’t mean it’s a children’s show or a children’s game. If this guy is interested in things for children he’s a weirdo. I’ve never seen children win nationals. I’ve never seen children drop $60,000 on a PSA 10 crush card virus lol it’s not insulting to me and I’m not offended or being defensive but I just think that’s incredibly stupid when people say that. It’s like when people say someone spending $2000 on a piece of cardboard. That’s like saying someone spent $100,000 on a rock because somebody bought a diamond. People just intentionally make something sound stupid or insignificant or childish but it just makes them sound dumb I think. It’s basically a strawman.
Chill out dudes, that's a reference from yu-gi-oh abridged series that keeps constantly said as a joke, we know adults are more suitable to play this because the amount of reading an strategies will just fry a kid brain. Ad it's full gambling because the money and luck to have a good deck is really elevated that an actual children can't afford.
@@siruno6024 No you don’t know it’s a reference from the show. That is mentioned in Yu-Gi-Oh abridged but people do say that more often because they believe it and they are repeating a meme and you know that... don’t be willfully ignorant
@@mlpfanboy1701 The Kaiba corp we've seen in 5ds was nothing but former shell of itself thanks to Yliaster who somehow manage to change the course of history where kaiba or mokuba pretty much non-existence.
Remember, this is the same guy that canonically doesn't believe in egyptian dark magic, but sent a deck into space because "if there IS intelligent life out there, let's teach the how to duel"
I mean statistically, it's garunteed to be other life in the universe because it's infinite. But as far as kaiba can tell there no such thing as magic so 🤷♂️
@@thanatosignis5702 the universe isn't infinite. It's also statistically impossible that life exists at all, so there's probably no other biological life in the universe. Now, metaphysical life... That's another story.
@@remingtonsloan8331 how is the universe not infinite? If your talking about physical matter or photons or energy, yes there's a finite amount, immeasurable but not infinite, but the expanse of empty space is endless. Also statistically life is very rare, and you are more likely than not to find an empty planet, but statistically there's is a probability that there is life on another planet so unless you have been to every single planet you can't say it's impossible lol. It is possible but highly unlikely.
Kaiba is the Willy Wonka of the yugioh universe: while Willy Wonka makes science miracles just to make more chocolate, Kaiba make's science miracles just to play card games.
If this is the case, this could imply that every writen instance of the terms Synchro Summon & Synchro Monster in the Yugioh universe have a small TM symbol next to them. Becuase that's just the kind of glorious maniac Kaiba is.

Awesome video. When I was a teenager, I never really paid too much attention to the plot of 5D's besides character interactions and the duels themselves, but you made me notice how impressively detailed the concept of Zero Reverse was. Even if it's a series with really over the top ridiculous card games in motorcycles.
Viewer: Interesting... Friend: What are you watching? Viewer: A video about Yugioh. Friend: Oh, are you checking new strategies or the new banlist? Viewer: Nah, I'm learning how the use of fission reaction propels the perpetual motion machine made out of hard light to create unlimited energy, giving birth to Synchro Monsters as a leftover, but eventually ends going so fast that it collides with itself and causes the annihilation of the human race. Friend: WTF.
@@SpellCommander91 This is the type of conversations that great content like yours can create XD. Keep the good work and keep having fun doing it! Choosing only one of them is not an option! XD
@@SpellCommander91 Basically: The Material is ONE MONSTER FROM EVERY TYPE Same number(Level/Rank/Link/Tier/Etc) Said Materials are ELIMINATED from the game (forget DD effects!) You can negate it being affected by an effect of a card of the same exact COLOR once each (eg. only one Spell OR Pendulum. Always use a Trap monster to Singularity Summon!) If the Singularity Monster leaves the field, YOU LEAVE THE UNIVERSE
I think, in terms of this theory, Kaiba genuinely started out trying to help combat the energy problem, but, upon learning the power could be used to create powerful new Blue-Eyes, he kind of... Stopped caring about the consequences.
In other words: the Japanese know nuclear science really well, and the creator of YuGiOh took that knowledge and applied it to dragons, as any reasonable person would. Sasuga.
They've essentially took the original concept and message of Godzilla and adapted it into the one of the biggest card games in the world. And of course they did take a full front assault by nuclear weapons in WWII 😓
Kaiba is a character that literally developed an amusement park full of death machines to kill Yugi and Joey. He's definitely a villain at least at first.
Kaiba didn't die, that pod simulates a near death experience by forcing insane G forces on him so that he can enter the afterlife. But since he isn't truly dead he's slowly fading back into the mortal world that's why he has that ash floating off him

To respond to your question, I feel like Kaiba goes to absurd lengths to satisfy petty, personal desires, but uses the aftermath of his products to help civilization. The boost to Domino's economy from holding the Battle City Tournament? All cause he wanted some god cards. The satellite orbital station used to expand his Network reach across the globe, connect all of humanity past any type of conceptual and physical barriers, and increase the prowess of his Link system and Solid Vision technical capabilities? He made all that so he could solve the Millennium Puzzle in a zero g environment.

That all checks out. In the manga he created solid vision all so he could recreate the first shadow game he had with Yugi at the school and take revenge by giving him a penalty game. Even the duel disk system was only invented in the first place because he thought it'd somehow make Pegasus unable to use his mind reading.
You guys can find it on his Instagram page. href.li/?instagram.com/p/BL-vpcBgD0s/ I took a look at the translation and it does say it’s a “possible future for yugi and kaiba” so I guess it’s up to interpretation on what happens after the end of the film. But of course take a look at Kazuki Takahazi’s other pieces!
never thought synchro summoning was thought out this well. Amazing video, very excited for xyz video. hope other summoning mechanics are based on something coolike synchro.
Somewhere in the lore, they say Xyz monsters come from an antimatter dimension. So it sounds like a matter-antimatter reaction is the energy basis for their being able to come through to our world. I was actually just thinking about this the other day.
i feel like a lot might have been lost in the dub. I watched it on realease, so it's been quite a while, but i don't remember kaiba corp being mentioned. Or it going this into detail about how the power generation works
Actually he went to the afterlife without risk, in the transcend the game chapter he obtained Aigami's millennium cube wich allowed him to visit the afterlife so no, he didn't die lol 😂
@@yanaskhoir3657 wrong universe Dsod follows the manga Gx follows the anime Events happens differently Kaiba is indeed alive in both though The millennium cube is his way out
I actually have a theory that 5Ds and Zexal happen simultaneously, additionally, I believe that while New Domino City is a Kaiba-controlled city, I believe that Heartland is a city founded and run by Pegasus until his eventual death, and that he invented Xyz summoning, because Heartland's aesthetic and the fun simplicity of xyz fit him so perfectly. And given the relationship between Kaiba and Pegasus, I think you can imagine why each of them would not allow the summoning method invented by the other into their own cities.
Yeah, I like the effort put into the video, but I think it is a bit optimistic. I don't think we have enough information to make these claims, it has nothing to do with the science, it's just that we don't even know if this is the same dimension seeing as they started to introduce others, like Zexal doesn't have Synchros for the real reason of Konami pushing product, and other than Pegasus existing in the Bonds Between Time movie, 5D's has little connection to the rest, we have no idea whether it is 50, 200, or 2000 years into the future, and it's funny that GX is only 10 years past the original DM series but has all of the cards before Synchros existed, so I guess card production basically became nonexisitant for 190 years. Kaiba was attacked in Season 4 of GX, we have no idea if he was killed, though Malefic Blue-Eyes is in the Bond Before Time, so somehow Kaiba lost only 1 of his dragons, but that is kinda strange because it is before Atem's ceremony, which makes it either non canon or ignorant of the DSOD movie. I'm used to none of the series or movies fitting in place, because Dragonball does this all the time. The video is well edited for the sake of arguing a point, I just don't think Konami really ever cared as much as its fans, which I am used to as well; The TCG rips off its player base compared to the OCG, in the end, we just want to play with cardboard.
@@Goblin_Hands 5D's has a decent connection to the original series and GX in the form of Trudge who appears in both the original and 5Ds while also being mentioned in GX, giving a relative time frame between YGO and 5Ds since he goes from being a teenager to being middle aged. DSOD is also only canon to the manga timeline of the first three series where Pegasus dies and Kaiba is less sane in general while anime GX and 5Ds continuation of the anime where Pegasus doesn't die when he does in the manga.
I don't think so I'm pretty sure Zexal happened after 5Ds. I heard a theory that zexal occurred in an alternate timeline in which Z-One does defeat Yusei and that there are three alternate timelines in which the timeline Z-One comes from then the timeline Yusei defeats Z-One and then the timeline Z-one defeats Yusei and in which Zexal occurred.
I've long believed Seto created Synchros and possibly even the first Duel Runner, So imagine my joy seeing this in my sub box. I legit love that this channel is basically Game Theory but for YuGiOh cos there is SO MUCH to explore with this series! Mad respect for you my Guy, always looking forward to the next video!
Same here. I wrote up a fanfic outline about it with the MC time-travelling to all the different eras and in my canon Kaiba created the first Synchro monsters at the end of the first arc. This was long before I'd even heard of the idea of Synchros being created or invented. I just figured if anyone could or would invent, it would 100% be Kaiba. I mean they're literally white. Blue and white are his favourite colors.
Number 1 is blue eyes/ kisara waifu Number 2 is defeating yugi Number 3 is winning Number 4 is dragon Number 5 is power.... I dont think mokuba get on top 5 priority lol. And imagine joey feeling a bottom tier in kaiba list
Why do people claim it's a children's card game? Most of the characters in the yugioh world are adults it is a way of life for EVERYONE in that world. if you don't play yugioh well you are nothing. Hell even in real life this "children's card game" is played more by adults and older teens than it is by children.

The fact you used science to explain why Blue-Eyes Ultimate is 4500 ATK points just blew my mind. I never even thought that was the reason for that OoO
I think if anything Kaiba did all this believing that he would eventually find an even better method because I think he’s too smart to not know what would eventually happen, and made some new cards for himself in the process because why wouldn’t he, and of course Kaiba did also make a bunch of tuners for himself too probably
@@reikolupus136 Kaiba isn’t the kind of guy to settle on something that isn’t perfect in his eyes, even in DSOD he says he’s never settled for mediocrity. If he knew he’d continue working to find a safer energy system as long as he could
As a huge Yu-Gi-Oh! fan and a chemical engineer, I have to say that I am completly in awe with this video. It's really impressive how you put everything together like that, congratulations! Also, Seto Kaiba happens to be my favorite character of all times, and your videos just make me love him even more 😍 I just discovered your channel and I intend to watch previous videos, so if you get notification on videos from a year ago, that's probably just me comenting 😅
@Alessandra, thank you! Coming from someone who actually works in a scientific background, that really means a lot! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the upcoming XYZ video because that is going to be just as scientifically rooted at this one. Seriously, thank you!
I like to think that the mutations synchro summoning causes actually mutated humans a little bit and gave people like Aki/Akiza her psychic powers. This is in tandem with the new psychic type being introduced. But overall the writing of 5ds is amazing.
That honestly can work and funny enough can fit in Akaba Leo's idea of using his Arc System to enhance the Solid Vision for the Duel Monsters card game as he could've researched psychic duelist like Aki as there had to have been history records about them
Man it sure is lucky kaiba wasnt brought about in an arc v dimension. Imagine how far he'd push the boundaries of pendulum and xyz summoning far beyond what LEO does.
you know what must be messed up? lets say you live in the yugiohverse. you rip open some booster packs and pull Blue Eye White dragon support like White Stone of Legend or Sage with Eyes of Blue. but then you remember that only 4 Blue Eyes exist. one's damaged, and 3 are in the hands of a 1%er. that would be like Konami releasing support for Tyler the Great Warrior.
Did Egyptians invent ritual summoning? Yes yusei definitely created xyz as a alternative energy source. What about link then cause we know the origins of pendulums.
@@AndreBeaulee Kazuki Takahashi made a drawing on twitter and posted it showing what happened after the movie ended and yes said it was canon, kaiba did not die. Sadly he never mentioned who won the duel between him and atem so that part will always be a mystery www.pinterest.com/pin/327355466649141493/
You do know that the manga author confirmed that Kaiba survived and would later publish a game made by little Yugi, right? Also, Kaiba isn't a playboy. He's never shown any interest in sleeping around. In a past life he loved Kisara, but a playboy is someone like Bruce Wayne who sleeps with a bunch of different women.
Bruce Wayne supposedly sleeps with a bunch of different women as his cover. But his confirmed body count is only 5 as far as I know, and that is if you count the lady who date raped him.
@@Sewblon There are a lot of different versions of Bruce Wayne, and some are more active than others. Bruce is often surrounded by bimbos, and the reason almost no one suspects him is because he seems so sleazy. I don't read enough comics to know how many he's been with, but it is his reputation.
He is my favorite character in all yu-gi-oh he is the one who made yugioh duel monsters interesting to watch . He is smart , rival , genius , hero , master and handsome . I always play as kaiba in duel links.

I'm always impressed by how Yugioh uses real-life scientific terms for their summoning mechanics. Like fusion, synchro, and overlay network. Pendulum and link seem to be past the time when the creators of Yugioh were meticulous about such things.

Seto Kaiba may be, as the abridged series put it, a super rich a$$hole from a broken home, but in the end he's also one of the smartest characters in the franchise. he probably knew the potential outcome of momentum, but either thought he could find an alternative to it long before then (xyz perhaps?) or simply thought he could come up with a failsafe if the device ever got close to it. the fact that it helped fuel his dragon obsession simply didn't hurt.
Or he simply didn't care about it erradicating humanity since it would happen long after he died, and he calculated how much the system would last before the Zero Reverse XD.
I think inversion would have manifested as a Duel Monster and he predicted the protagonists that was raised by the civilization he built would have collectively kicked its ass.

5ds is also the same show where a guy throws a trading card and breaks a pair of iron manacles around somebody's wrist so I would't put TOO much merit in it.
Just want to correct a few things regarding DsOD. First, Takahashi did confirm that Kaiba does return from the land of the dead and even drew art of him helping yugi playtest his new game. Also, his motive for dueling Atem was not "You beat me in a card game!" That was invented by the dub. Japanese Seto outright says: "I'm not doing this for something as petty as revenge." The reason he wanted to duel Atem is that they never got closure on their idealogical conflict of past vs future, and Kaiba in particular never got to truly say goodbye to his old rival and friend, as DSoD follows the manga timeline where Kaiba was NOT present for the ceremonial duel.
I feel like when it comes to Kaiba, he did both. He was originally just trying to figure out how to add new blue eyes to his deck, but he ends up discovering this unlimited power source by accident while doing so. That or vice versa. He could've been trying to just make this powerful source of energy in order to help Domino City, and the new blue eyes cards could just very well be a bi product that just so happened to be linked to said source of power.

Something that wouldn't surprise me is if Kaiba knew about inversion and that he designed the system to run on several overlapping systems so they could be powered down in rotation and restarted before the tipping point where the inversion becomes a problem and people later decided to just keep them running nonstop because it would be a cheaper way to get more energy out of them rather than building more of them as energy requirements in running cities grew.
Yugioh: gets praised for accurately following strict physics concepts and theories Also Yugioh: proceeds to give the same card a different card effect every time the card appears in the tv show.

You can actually tie in the fusion mechanic with Duel Terminal as well. The Shadoll Fusion broke the physics of the world (with the result being greater than the sum of its parts)... This resulted in the "system" responding very badly. Unleashing Qlis and Infernoids to attempt a hard reset on the DT world.
I just kinda realized that all Extra Deck summoning methods reference some kind of energy. There's what you mentioned about Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz here, but Link monsters are basically the circuit that lets them connect to one another. Which I think is really interesting.
Kaiba didnt die in The end of DSOD man 😲 It was his conciousness transcend into another dimension/ reality. The afterlife only another realm of conciousness. He indeed can back into his own body with that 8th millenium item (the cube). This thing related to Yusei's limit over accel synchro whatever in the end. His conciousness reached / synchronized with universe itself. Nice video 👍🏻

As far as Yusei's name, it's actualy the other way around. You see, "yusei" is actually the Japanese word for "planetary". The Planetary Particle, or "Yusei Gear" in the Japanese anime, is the Synchro that gets things going, and Dr. Fudo named his son after this gear in the hopes that he would bring people together in much the same way.
I think he was aiming for an energy source to help fuel his companies' ever growing energy consumption, because seriously the amount Kaiba corp must burn through I can see him gradually coming to hate having to deal with energy providers and going "screw it I'll make my own energy", and the moment he found out his prospective new energy source created Duel Monster cards as a *by-product* he was all over that.
I mean, wouldn’t you hold a grudge if you had to literally earn everything and work your butt off to take a company, search for hours to find 3 of your favourite card that you literally killed for, be known as one of the most powerful duelists in the world, and as soon as rip some old guys copy of your favourite card, some short, nobody, starfish head, looking kid, suddenly changes his eye shape, and deepens his voice, beats you in the first duel you challenge him to by doing what should be impossible, and he consistently beats you after that, and everyone calls him King of Games despite everyone only seeing him play a Card Game and Dungeon Dice Monsters once? I mean, wouldn’t you be at least slightly tilted?
If Synchro Monsters are a radioactive bi-product of nuclear fission, then what are Dark Synchro Monsters made of? Dark Energy? Dark Matter? ...Dark Fluid?
I’d like to remind everyone that 5D, the motorcycle saga, is a LITERAL DYSTOPIA! Where the rank of an individual can be determined by duel monsters. Literally the police are centered around this as well as the bloody prison systems!
Aah yugioh the childrens card game that has holograms that hurt you extremely so much that people don't fight anymore but duel because a duel hurts more than a real fight............. Ow and did I mention the card game is for children good luck in school Jimmy
How Kaiba invented Synchro? Bro, you making it sounds like you giving Kaiba all the credit. Don’t forget Pegasus is the one who created the game and duel monsters so he should be the one creating Synchro monsters. Kaiba’s technology making the game more advanced every time there is something new that comes to mind.
We have the right to kinda overreact even just a little and express it as so cause.... he's not a villain at all, he is an antagonist, i'm still kinda casual about manga and anime yet i know the difference. And adult people with paid channels talking about this should have a better logic already than a 13 or 6 yo judging anime. People don't start to call this now - the era of missinformation - for nothing, is for kinda cringy'ish stuff like this.
5D's is a series of 30 minute advertisements for a children's card game that uses theoretical physics to form the foundation of a cyberpunk universe in which playing CARDGAMESONMOTORCYCLES is used to provide the energy needed to run a technologically advanced society. ... ...... ......... And people still have the guts to say that it wasn't the BEST Yugioh series.
You said that it's tragic that Kaiba isn't the best at the thing he likes most but it's pretty likely that he likes Duel Monsters especially because he isn't the best at it, normally people like to be challenged a little so if you are gifted in something it can get pretty lame for you really quickly and as someone smart once said, the peek is lonely so i think Kaiba is actually less interested in Duel Monsters and more in finally having an Rival to compete with, a further hint on that is that as far as i remember he never showed and peculiar interest in Duel Monsters itself
I just want to respond to everyone commenting that Kaiba definitely survived Dark Side of Dimensions and that Takahashi confirmed it with the art piece featured here: yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Spherium?file=Kaiba_VS_Yugi_-_Spherium.png
First off, thank you for watching the video and I hope you enjoyed.
The ending of the movie is left intentionally ambiguous and Takahashi has not confirmed either possibility. He specifically said that his illustration represents, "...just one possible future story." There is no canonical answer to whether or not Kaiba lived or died at the end of the film and likely will not be unless NAS, Konami, and Studio Bridge ever decide to use the character again in a future movie or series. This theory video is based on one interpretation of the film's ending. If Kaiba lived in your head canon, enjoy! I hope he Blue-Eyes'd the hell out of some people.

if kaiba did't survive after the movie he would never create the synchro summon, 'cause the movei is before gx series(the video still working anyway).it was a awesome theory
Hot take, you credit the wrong brother. It was Mokuba this whole time!
@@yubelious5584 ah shit, someone jumped ahead. There is something to this notion that is gonna come up in the upcoming Complete Timeline video.
I've seen somewhere that Kaiba came back and, together with Yugi, created the Duel Links
I don't want to come off as obnoxious, but whilst it's true that Takahashi hasn't given the movie a canon ending, it's still a fact that Kaiba did NOT die at the end. Why? because he had the Quantum Cube.
See, in the prequel manga (TRANSCEND GAME) Kaiba had already figured out a way to reach the afterlife using not magic, but pure science; His Neurons project allowed him to focus the collective consciousness of people and use it to bridge our reality with that of the afterlife, but it was flawed and incomplete. Had Kaiba tried to reach Atem right there and then, he *would* have died.
That's where the Quantum Cube comes in, that magical artifact allows Kaiba's science project to be stabilised and go from one reality to another without first killing him on the spot.
And this is *very* relevant because it shows how much Kaiba has grown as a person. He no longer wants to depend on his technology and maths alone to do things, he is now open to the idea of using magic and taking leaps of faith in order to achieve things. It's something that is practically at the end of the movie when everyone is shocked when they realised Kaiba was right and Atem could come back once more.
I'm just pointing this out because I'm getting tired of hearing people say that "omg Kaiba just killed himself to see the pharaoh!" when that's not at all what happened. It's true that Takahashi hasn't given a canon ending to the movie, yes, but if we go with the evidence presented in it, the least likely scenario would have been that Kaiba would deliberately kill himself just to see Atem when he had already rejected that option prior to the events of the movie.
I choose to believe that Kaiba created one of the greatest breakthroughs in science and energy production just so he could add some new blue-eyes white dragons to his deck. It's just too funny, that I can't accept any alternate motivation.
Tbh I wouldnt be suprised Kaiba is insane like that lol
You'd be right.
he created hyper- realistic holograms, space elevators and time travel just so he can duel Yugi
This is literally why he did it. He wanted to have Blue-Eyes White Dragon cards that were white.
And since Maiden with Eyes of Blue is a tuner, that means he just wanted to bring his Blue Eyes waifu Kisara back.
Kaiba: "I was making more stuff for a children's card game but I guess I also solved the energy crisis. You're welcome. " 🤷♂️
But in the Yugioh universe the card game is a full time job for adults. It's a way of life. There is a whole school created to teaching people to play duel monsters in order to excel in their adulthood.
Hell even in real life more adults and older teens play yugioh than kids do.
@@krampusklaws2238 You are absolutely right. Not only in the show is it absolutely not for kids, it’s not for children. That’s just something really stupid a lot of people repeat because I think it’s funny. Dora the Explorer is a children’s show. Toy story and finding Nemo our family friendly shows. Just because children are capable of enjoying something it doesn’t mean it’s a children’s show or a children’s game. If this guy is interested in things for children he’s a weirdo. I’ve never seen children win nationals. I’ve never seen children drop $60,000 on a PSA 10 crush card virus lol it’s not insulting to me and I’m not offended or being defensive but I just think that’s incredibly stupid when people say that. It’s like when people say someone spending $2000 on a piece of cardboard. That’s like saying someone spent $100,000 on a rock because somebody bought a diamond. People just intentionally make something sound stupid or insignificant or childish but it just makes them sound dumb I think. It’s basically a strawman.
Chill out dudes, that's a reference from yu-gi-oh abridged series that keeps constantly said as a joke, we know adults are more suitable to play this because the amount of reading an strategies will just fry a kid brain. Ad it's full gambling because the money and luck to have a good deck is really elevated that an actual children can't afford.
@@siruno6024 No you don’t know it’s a reference from the show. That is mentioned in Yu-Gi-Oh abridged but people do say that more often because they believe it and they are repeating a meme and you know that... don’t be willfully ignorant
@@siruno6024 especially now a days I was a kid when yugioh originally came out. So simple compared to now
Kaiba: Okay, I'm going to make a new summoning method so if Atem tries to play this game again he will say something like: "Synchro what?"
Okay this is fucking funny
Only to be replaced by yusei who has the power of a deity surpassing obelisk on his side who perfects it.
@@mlpfanboy1701 The Kaiba corp we've seen in 5ds was nothing but former shell of itself thanks to Yliaster who somehow manage to change the course of history where kaiba or mokuba pretty much non-existence.
Then Pharaoh yami surprises kaiba with an xyz monster
(Xyz monsters actually existed since atem’s time, and atem also has an xyz monster.)
@@themarshian5124 wait really?
Remember, this is the same guy that canonically doesn't believe in egyptian dark magic, but sent a deck into space because "if there IS intelligent life out there, let's teach the how to duel"
That Kaiba dont belive in magic is a dub mistake, in japanese canon He just dont care about it. Is like “i want power, not matter where it came”
Or it could be just à marketing and à catch phrase linked to his product ?
he is à business men, spécialy in GX
I mean statistically, it's garunteed to be other life in the universe because it's infinite. But as far as kaiba can tell there no such thing as magic so 🤷♂️
@@thanatosignis5702 the universe isn't infinite. It's also statistically impossible that life exists at all, so there's probably no other biological life in the universe. Now, metaphysical life... That's another story.
@@remingtonsloan8331 how is the universe not infinite? If your talking about physical matter or photons or energy, yes there's a finite amount, immeasurable but not infinite, but the expanse of empty space is endless. Also statistically life is very rare, and you are more likely than not to find an empty planet, but statistically there's is a probability that there is life on another planet so unless you have been to every single planet you can't say it's impossible lol. It is possible but highly unlikely.
Scientists: creating gears out of solid light is breaking the rules of physics you know?
Kaiba: SCREW THE RULES I HAVE MONEY
He also has magic card games.... those can help make exceptions from the rules.
Actually no, those are very possible
We've already created solid crystals from light
It's possible but requires a lot more energy than our current machines are capable of producing at the moment.
Screw you yami synchro summon synchro what!?
@@ZeldaFan940 SYNCHRO WHAT
Kaiba is the Willy Wonka of the yugioh universe: while Willy Wonka makes science miracles just to make more chocolate, Kaiba make's science miracles just to play card games.
He's also like Bruce Wayne or Tony stark
If this is the case, this could imply that every writen instance of the terms Synchro Summon & Synchro Monster in the Yugioh universe have a small TM symbol next to them. Becuase that's just the kind of glorious maniac Kaiba is.
Who said they don’t.

I think, in terms of this theory, Kaiba genuinely started out trying to help combat the energy problem, but, upon learning the power could be used to create powerful new Blue-Eyes, he kind of... Stopped caring about the consequences.
In other words: the Japanese know nuclear science really well, and the creator of YuGiOh took that knowledge and applied it to dragons, as any reasonable person would. Sasuga.
They've essentially took the original concept and message of Godzilla and adapted it into the one of the biggest card games in the world.
And of course they did take a full front assault by nuclear weapons in WWII 😓
I believe that Kaiba just wanted to create the next step in human evolution: card games on motorcycles
He was going for Blue Eyes on motorcycles, humans just happened to work as well.
@@skeletonwar4445 blue eyes as motorcycles 👀

Wouldn’t that be uncomfortable?
@@duckluiz yet another way for Kaiba to ride his dragons
Kaiba is a character that literally developed an amusement park full of death machines to kill Yugi and Joey. He's definitely a villain at least at first.
True lmfao 😂🤣
He literally put a chainsaw murderer and forced yugi and co to battle againt him in game. Dude is nut
@@polocatfan and that’s what made him obsessed with Yami yugi too.
Not a lot of people remember Death T. Thank god Atem removed the dark side of him after their first duel
Kaiba didn't die, that pod simulates a near death experience by forcing insane G forces on him so that he can enter the afterlife. But since he isn't truly dead he's slowly fading back into the mortal world that's why he has that ash floating off him

He was trying to make more blue eyes. Cards and ener d was just a by product of that
The white stone of legend still haunt me since the day I install Duel Link
let's be honest: He probably just wanted some new Blue Eyes White Dragon cards for his deck and didn't care about the "side effect" of unlimited energy.

This is probably what happened
Synchro Blue Eyes was a worlds mirror match. Man achieved his goal.
Using the power of nuclear duel monsters to make a perpetual motion machine to produce infinite power. Sounds pretty in character for Seto Kaiba.
To respond to your question, I feel like Kaiba goes to absurd lengths to satisfy petty, personal desires, but uses the aftermath of his products to help civilization.
The boost to Domino's economy from holding the Battle City Tournament? All cause he wanted some god cards.
The satellite orbital station used to expand his Network reach across the globe, connect all of humanity past any type of conceptual and physical barriers, and increase the prowess of his Link system and Solid Vision technical capabilities?

That all checks out.
In the manga he created solid vision all so he could recreate the first shadow game he had with Yugi at the school and take revenge by giving him a penalty game.
Even the duel disk system was only invented in the first place because he thought it'd somehow make Pegasus unable to use his mind reading.
Kaiba doesn’t die, Kazuki Takahashi drew a piece of kaiba and Yugi playing yugi’s new game that takes place after the movie
FOR REAL?
I wonder...
“BTW, Kaiba-kun... You were totally off the radar for a while...”
IMPORTANT BUSINESS
“...OK”
XD
Wait what?! Where can I find that piece?
Could you tell me where I can find that piece?
Where?
You guys can find it on his Instagram page. href.li/?instagram.com/p/BL-vpcBgD0s/
I took a look at the translation and it does say it’s a “possible future for yugi and kaiba” so I guess it’s up to interpretation on what happens after the end of the film. But of course take a look at Kazuki Takahazi’s other pieces!
never thought synchro summoning was thought out this well. Amazing video, very excited for xyz video. hope other summoning mechanics are based on something coolike synchro.
Somewhere in the lore, they say Xyz monsters come from an antimatter dimension. So it sounds like a matter-antimatter reaction is the energy basis for their being able to come through to our world. I was actually just thinking about this the other day.
i feel like a lot might have been lost in the dub. I watched it on realease, so it's been quite a while, but i don't remember kaiba corp being mentioned. Or it going this into detail about how the power generation works
@@nikraa77 The dub never mentions Kaiba Corporation at all
@@adaurysantos that's what i thought. Hence my comment. Thanks for the clarification
Actually he went to the afterlife without risk, in the transcend the game chapter he obtained Aigami's millennium cube wich allowed him to visit the afterlife so no, he didn't die lol 😂

Yu-gi-oh taught me more about science than school ever did
Dude it how I learn so much about other cultures. Because of Yugioh.
It made me and my friends a bit better in Math. There are times when we had no calculators and we had to compute for LP mentally
School: *He Knows Too Much*
I agree
Hey same
I actually have a theory that 5Ds and Zexal happen simultaneously, additionally, I believe that while New Domino City is a Kaiba-controlled city, I believe that Heartland is a city founded and run by Pegasus until his eventual death, and that he invented Xyz summoning, because Heartland's aesthetic and the fun simplicity of xyz fit him so perfectly. And given the relationship between Kaiba and Pegasus, I think you can imagine why each of them would not allow the summoning method invented by the other into their own cities.
Yeah, I like the effort put into the video, but I think it is a bit optimistic.
I don't think we have enough information to make these claims, it has nothing to do with the science, it's just that we don't even know if this is the same dimension seeing as they started to introduce others, like Zexal doesn't have Synchros for the real reason of Konami pushing product, and other than Pegasus existing in the Bonds Between Time movie, 5D's has little connection to the rest, we have no idea whether it is 50, 200, or 2000 years into the future, and it's funny that GX is only 10 years past the original DM series but has all of the cards before Synchros existed, so I guess card production basically became nonexisitant for 190 years. Kaiba was attacked in Season 4 of GX, we have no idea if he was killed, though Malefic Blue-Eyes is in the Bond Before Time, so somehow Kaiba lost only 1 of his dragons, but that is kinda strange because it is before Atem's ceremony, which makes it either non canon or ignorant of the DSOD movie. I'm used to none of the series or movies fitting in place, because Dragonball does this all the time.
The video is well edited for the sake of arguing a point, I just don't think Konami really ever cared as much as its fans, which I am used to as well; The TCG rips off its player base compared to the OCG, in the end, we just want to play with cardboard.
@@Goblin_Hands 5D's has a decent connection to the original series and GX in the form of Trudge who appears in both the original and 5Ds while also being mentioned in GX, giving a relative time frame between YGO and 5Ds since he goes from being a teenager to being middle aged. DSOD is also only canon to the manga timeline of the first three series where Pegasus dies and Kaiba is less sane in general while anime GX and 5Ds continuation of the anime where Pegasus doesn't die when he does in the manga.
@@quisetell But the world racing grand pric was dedicated to Pegasus's memory
I don't think so I'm pretty sure Zexal happened after 5Ds. I heard a theory that zexal occurred in an alternate timeline in which Z-One does defeat Yusei and that there are three alternate timelines in which the timeline Z-One comes from then the timeline Yusei defeats Z-One and then the timeline Z-one defeats Yusei and in which Zexal occurred.
Pegasus has a monument to his name in 5ds
He is officially dead during that period
I've long believed Seto created Synchros and possibly even the first Duel Runner, So imagine my joy seeing this in my sub box.
I legit love that this channel is basically Game Theory but for YuGiOh cos there is SO MUCH to explore with this series!
Mad respect for you my Guy, always looking forward to the next video!

Same here. I wrote up a fanfic outline about it with the MC time-travelling to all the different eras and in my canon Kaiba created the first Synchro monsters at the end of the first arc. This was long before I'd even heard of the idea of Synchros being created or invented. I just figured if anyone could or would invent, it would 100% be Kaiba. I mean they're literally white. Blue and white are his favourite colors.
@@StarboyXL9 Good one!

The fact you used science to explain why Blue-Eyes Ultimate is 4500 ATK points just blew my mind. I never even thought that was the reason for that OoO
I suddenly have a newfound reappreciation for the amazing writing of 5ds.
Kaiba would absolutely sacrifice the world of 200 years in the future just to make some cool new dragons
I think if anything Kaiba did all this believing that he would eventually find an even better method because I think he’s too smart to not know what would eventually happen, and made some new cards for himself in the process because why wouldn’t he, and of course Kaiba did also make a bunch of tuners for himself too probably
Or he did it without really caring about the consequences, since wouldn't be alive by then, having calculated exactly when it would happen XD.
@@reikolupus136 Kaiba isn’t the kind of guy to settle on something that isn’t perfect in his eyes, even in DSOD he says he’s never settled for mediocrity. If he knew he’d continue working to find a safer energy system as long as he could

I like to think that the mutations synchro summoning causes actually mutated humans a little bit and gave people like Aki/Akiza her psychic powers. This is in tandem with the new psychic type being introduced. But overall the writing of 5ds is amazing.
That honestly can work and funny enough can fit in Akaba Leo's idea of using his Arc System to enhance the Solid Vision for the Duel Monsters card game as he could've researched psychic duelist like Aki as there had to have been history records about them
Man it sure is lucky kaiba wasnt brought about in an arc v dimension. Imagine how far he'd push the boundaries of pendulum and xyz summoning far beyond what LEO does.
He tried to create blue eyes alternate neo crystal clear ultimate synchro dragon.... The name alone was enough to cause the reactor to explode
It's a excuse to create a Blue Eyes White Dragon designed D-Wheel.
Blue-eyes duel runner
you know what must be messed up? lets say you live in the yugiohverse. you rip open some booster packs and pull Blue Eye White dragon support like White Stone of Legend or Sage with Eyes of Blue. but then you remember that only 4 Blue Eyes exist. one's damaged, and 3 are in the hands of a 1%er. that would be like Konami releasing support for Tyler the Great Warrior.
"Good luck with that" - Normal spell
Special summon 2 or more "Tyler the Great Warrior" from your hand or deck
Or they support all Dragon type Normal Monsters
Or after Kaiba died they reprinted blue eyes cause it was safe to do so
Did Egyptians invent ritual summoning? Yes yusei definitely created xyz as a alternative energy source. What about link then cause we know the origins of pendulums.

You do know that the manga author confirmed that Kaiba survived and would later publish a game made by little Yugi, right? Also, Kaiba isn't a playboy.

On an interview with the writers they admitted to doing there research and willing admitted that kaiba’s only intention was to prove there is nothing science can’t beat even if it is magic
Seto Kaiba may be, as the abridged series put it, a super rich a$$hole from a broken home, but in the end he's also one of the smartest characters in the franchise. he probably knew the potential outcome of momentum, but either thought he could find an alternative to it long before then (xyz perhaps?) or simply thought he could come up with a failsafe if the device ever got close to it. the fact that it helped fuel his dragon obsession simply didn't hurt.
Or he simply didn't care about it erradicating humanity since it would happen long after he died, and he calculated how much the system would last before the Zero Reverse XD.
I think inversion would have manifested as a Duel Monster and he predicted the protagonists that was raised by the civilization he built would have collectively kicked its ass.
@@ShionChosa their main monsters are dragons so maybe kaiba new what was up.

The fact the science in 5Ds actually checks out makes me love it even more
5ds is also the same show where a guy throws a trading card and breaks a pair of iron manacles around somebody's wrist so I would't put TOO much merit in it.
seto invented syncros, jet there wheren't any blue eyes sycros for set after set for years even after the introduction of the first blue eyes tuner
Most likely didnt want anyone else playing Blue-Eyes
...and I just always thought it had more to do with him going back in time and gaining a new power from Set and Kisara (Maiden with Eyes of Blue)...
This video has absolutely no right being as good as it is. I am honestly astonished.
What if Kaiba just wanted a Blue Eyes White Dragon motorcycle but it needed too much energy?
Just want to correct a few things regarding DsOD.
First, Takahashi did confirm that Kaiba does return from the land of the dead and even drew art of him helping yugi playtest his new game.
Also, his motive for dueling Atem was not "You beat me in a card game!" That was invented by the dub. Japanese Seto outright says: "I'm not doing this for something as petty as revenge."
The reason he wanted to duel Atem is that they never got closure on their idealogical conflict of past vs future, and Kaiba in particular never got to truly say goodbye to his old rival and friend, as DSoD follows the manga timeline where Kaiba was NOT present for the ceremonial duel.
I'd say anti-hero in Duel Monsters, but in King of Games (Season 0). Yeah, super villain doesn't begin to cover it.
I feel like when it comes to Kaiba, he did both. He was originally just trying to figure out how to add new blue eyes to his deck, but he ends up discovering this unlimited power source by accident while doing so. That or vice versa. He could've been trying to just make this powerful source of energy in order to help Domino City, and the new blue eyes cards could just very well be a bi product that just so happened to be linked to said source of power.
Actually Kaiba survives DSOD after all in the end of the Manga special, we saw that Yugi and Kaiba develop together a game after a travel.

Masahiro: Finally someone who understands yugioh is more than a children card game
Something that wouldn't surprise me is if Kaiba knew about inversion and that he designed the system to run on several overlapping systems so they could be powered down in rotation and restarted before the tipping point where the inversion becomes a problem and people later decided to just keep them running nonstop because it would be a cheaper way to get more energy out of them rather than building more of them as energy requirements in running cities grew.
Play that first bit when you went "okay internet let's Rev it up!" I got actual chills
Yugioh: gets praised for accurately following strict physics concepts and theories
Also Yugioh: proceeds to give the same card a different card effect every time the card appears in the tv show.
Kaiba is shown to be alive and helping Yugi Moto create a game though.
I comes for ygo lore but end up having science lecture instead. If only real world school could taught like this.

You can actually tie in the fusion mechanic with Duel Terminal as well. The Shadoll Fusion broke the physics of the world (with the result being greater than the sum of its parts)... This resulted in the "system" responding very badly. Unleashing Qlis and Infernoids to attempt a hard reset on the DT world.
I just kinda realized that all Extra Deck summoning methods reference some kind of energy. There's what you mentioned about Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz here, but Link monsters are basically the circuit that lets them connect to one another. Which I think is really interesting.
Kaiba didnt die in The end of DSOD man 😲
It was his conciousness transcend into another dimension/ reality. The afterlife only another realm of conciousness. He indeed can back into his own body with that 8th millenium item (the cube).
This thing related to Yusei's limit over accel synchro whatever in the end. His conciousness reached / synchronized with universe itself. Nice video 👍🏻

Expectation: A guy talking about How Kaiba created Synchro summons so i maybe catch a glimpse of what new yugioh is like...
Reality: 3 minutes of Kaiba appreciation plus 10 minutes of quantics while appreciating Kaiba's greatness... Better than expected✔️
Mzkzksksksk I knew I wasn't the only person who thought Yusei made XYZ.
He couldn’t revived them but they were confirmed to be created long before him.
@@themarshian5124 Source?
@@Varaydein watch zexal
And if there is one thing kiaba witnessed over and over, was mokuba getting kidnapped
He probably needed all this energy to try and bring back the Pharaoh in some way
Love the channel and more kaiba is always good !!!!!!!
Also looking forward to the GX rewrite whenever it gets here ! You rock thanks for all your hard work !!
Much appreciated!
1:11 Note* Kaiba does not die nor is he dead this is confirmed by Kazuki Takahashi
Unlike the place where he travels to that is not specified to be the afterlife, past or another dimension
Note* the pod he used to transport himself is named "Duel Dimension System"

@@jamesmayle3787 I forgive you for spamming this in every comment section you find.
SpellCommander91, can you make a video on who invented xyzs summoning or how xyzs summoning was invented?
Coming right up! Next video. Hopefully up in the next week or two.
I was lured into learning with yugioh. Dammit
As far as Yusei's name, it's actualy the other way around. You see, "yusei" is actually the Japanese word for "planetary". The Planetary Particle, or "Yusei Gear" in the Japanese anime, is the Synchro that gets things going, and Dr. Fudo named his son after this gear in the hopes that he would bring people together in much the same way.
In short, by blowing up most of the city
I think he was aiming for an energy source to help fuel his companies' ever growing energy consumption, because seriously the amount Kaiba corp must burn through I can see him gradually coming to hate having to deal with energy providers and going "screw it I'll make my own energy", and the moment he found out his prospective new energy source created Duel Monster cards as a *by-product* he was all over that.
Me trying to escape science class and finding this video
I mean, wouldn’t you hold a grudge if you had to literally earn everything and work your butt off to take a company, search for hours to find 3 of your favourite card that you literally killed for, be known as one of the most powerful duelists in the world, and as soon as rip some old guys copy of your favourite card, some short, nobody, starfish head, looking kid, suddenly changes his eye shape, and deepens his voice, beats you in the first duel you challenge him to by doing what should be impossible, and he consistently beats you after that, and everyone calls him King of Games despite everyone only seeing him play a Card Game and Dungeon Dice Monsters once? I mean, wouldn’t you be at least slightly tilted?
This was released at my birthday, thank you this is SO GOOD
If Synchro Monsters are a radioactive bi-product of nuclear fission, then what are Dark Synchro Monsters made of? Dark Energy? Dark Matter? ...Dark Fluid?
I’d like to remind everyone that 5D, the motorcycle saga, is a LITERAL DYSTOPIA! Where the rank of an individual can be determined by duel monsters. Literally the police are centered around this as well as the bloody prison systems!
Aah yugioh the childrens card game that has holograms that hurt you extremely so much that people don't fight anymore but duel because a duel hurts more than a real fight............. Ow and did I mention the card game is for children good luck in school Jimmy
How Kaiba invented Synchro? Bro, you making it sounds like you giving Kaiba all the credit. Don’t forget Pegasus is the one who created the game and duel monsters so he should be the one creating Synchro monsters. Kaiba’s technology making the game more advanced every time there is something new that comes to mind.
We have the right to kinda overreact even just a little and express it as so cause.... he's not a villain at all, he is an antagonist, i'm still kinda casual about manga and anime yet i know the difference. And adult people with paid channels talking about this should have a better logic already than a 13 or 6 yo judging anime. People don't start to call this now - the era of missinformation - for nothing, is for kinda cringy'ish stuff like this.
Still doesn’t justify being called a super villain. That would imply intentionally doing it to do harm. Clickbait as far as I’m concerned
5D's is a series of 30 minute advertisements for a children's card game that uses theoretical physics to form the foundation of a cyberpunk universe in which playing CARDGAMESONMOTORCYCLES is used to provide the energy needed to run a technologically advanced society.
...
......
.........
And people still have the guts to say that it wasn't the BEST Yugioh series.
How synchros were created.
Anime: Nuclear energy, science, physics, hard light, duel spirits.
Real life: ha ha, printer go brrrrrr
So technically....by Yugi stopping the pharaoh(from killing kiba) he doomed the planet for destruction. Looks like there is a too nice. 😥
3:39 this image looks like exceed (XYZ) monsters unit, so i deduce that this theory is a complement to your video: no Synchro in Zexal
You said that it's tragic that Kaiba isn't the best at the thing he likes most but it's pretty likely that he likes Duel Monsters especially because he isn't the best at it, normally people like to be challenged a little so if you are gifted in something it can get pretty lame for you really quickly and as someone smart once said, the peek is lonely so i think Kaiba is actually less interested in Duel Monsters and more in finally having an Rival to compete with, a further hint on that is that as far as i remember he never showed and peculiar interest in Duel Monsters itself
Kaiba isn’t really a super bad guy. I think he overlooked the inversion factor and figured it out too late
