Original subtitles

A long time ago, when the pyramids were still new,

Egyptian kings played a game of great and terrible power.

But these Dark Games turned into a war

which threatened to destroy the entire world

until a brave and powerful pharaoh locked away the power of magic,

trapping inside of the mystical Millennial Relics.

Now, five thousand years later,

a boy named Yugi frees the secret of the Millennium Puzzle.

It is full of magical energies ancestors,

because destiny chose him

to defend the world of the return of the Dark Games,

as the brave Pharaoh had done five thousand years ago.

It's duel time!

Hey, Joey.

Earth to Joey.

Hey, are you there? It's your turn.

He's not cute When are you thinking?

Hey, Tristan. Yugi is teaching me playing Duel Monsters.

Mushroom monsters?

Duel Monsters, you fool.

They've been playing for hours.

Joey is starting to understand the game, but Yugi is an expert.

Okay, Yugi, it's duel time.

Each card in an attack number and one for defense.

The first player to eliminate the points opponent's life wins the duel.

Good move, huh, Yugi?

Yeah. Good move, but not good enough.

What? Thank you very much.

Such a powerful card it completely destroys me.

Wow, you're horrible at this game, Joey.

No, you did good, Joey. I just have better cards.

You know, my grandfather owns a game store and I get my best cards with him.

Your own game store? What are you waiting for? Let's go.

Right. Maybe my grandfather will show us a super rare card he has.

Rare card?

Did they find the letter? What am I looking for?

GAME

Grandpa, I'm here.

And I see you brought company.

Grandpa, can you show your rare card for my friends?

Rare card? My special letter?

-Please. Please. -Please?

How can I refuse?

You will be surprised. I don't show this letter.

Ready? Here it is.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

So rare, so powerful, It's always in my hands.

-Too much. -Legal.

It doesn't seem special to me.

This letter is invaluable. There are only four in the world.

Speaking of priceless, I'm ready to switch.

Not for this letter.

No, I wasn't talking about this letter.

I meant, show me other cool cards for me to start.

Hello. Can I help you?

If you can't, It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

-Seto Kaiba. -Kaiba?

Doesn't he have a business to take care of?

What is he doing here?

Not that it's any of your business, but I came to see the letter.

Hey, do you also play Duel Monsters?

Perfect. Maybe we can duel together one day.

I? Duel you?

It would be a bigger challenge

-play Solitaire. -What?

I'm the number one duelist in the country,

and the favorite to win the Duel Monster Championship.

You wouldn't last two minutes in a duel against me.

I'm shaking. Maybe you want to resolve this with punches instead of cards.

Take it easy, Joey.

But, Yugi, Kaiba is asking.

This store has cards worth worth it or not?

-Hey. -Hey.

Could it be? The Blue-Eyes White Dragon in a joint like this?

Yeah. The letter I was looking for.

Well, enough just looking.

I can help you with anything else?

Listen, old man.

Give your White Dragon card Blue Eyes and I'll trade for all of these.

Cool, but no thanks.

All good. If you don't change it, you might sell it.

Name your price. I can pay whatever you ask.

I'm sure yes,

but this letter is worth more to me of what it can offer.

Not because of your power, or because it is very rare,

but because of the importance it has for me.

A dear friend gave me this letter.

So I value this letter as much as my friend.

So saying goodbye to her is completely out of the question.

No.

I would think the same if it were an ordinary letter, grandpa?

Exactly. You know, this precious letter is united to my heart.

All good. I've heard enough of your nonsense.

Senile old man.

Heart of the cards? Ridiculous.

These cards represent power.

And one way or another, the letter Blue-Eyes White Dragon will be mine.

There's something I want you to get to me at the game store.

With pleasure, Master Kaiba.

Good morning.

My master, Seto Kaiba, challenges you to a duel.

You will come with us now.

What if I refuse?

I'm afraid I'll have to insist.

Young Kaiba doesn't understand,

but I will teach you a lesson over the hearts of the cards.

-I hope he has nice cards today. -Me too.

Very good, grandpa. I went back to get more letters.

-Hey. Hey, grandpa. -Grandpa, I'm here.

Maybe he left.

Maybe, but would he leave the door unlocked?

GAME

Hello game store.

Yugi, perfect.

Kaiba?

Your grandfather is here visiting, but he's not feeling well.

Why don't you come to my work to catch it?

Kaiba. What did you do, Kaiba?

Grandfather. Grandpa, are you okay?

Yugi. I failed.

I wanted to teach Kaiba a lesson about the heart of the cards, but I lost it.

Grandfather.

How is the old man feeling?

Kaiba, you idiot, what did you do with him?

We had a duel, that's all,

and the price was the most valuable card that we had.

But I think playing against a champion like me

it was too much encouragement for the fool.

Kaiba, you should be ashamed.

It was fair.

And look at the prize I won.

Grandpa's most precious letter.

Yes, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon It is a rare and powerful card,

and it will never be used against me.

My Blue-Eyes White Dragon. My treasure.

Grandpa, wait.

How could you do such a thing?

Yugi, here. Take this.

Grandfather.

I made this deck. I put my soul into these letters.

And I taught you everything I know, Yugi.

Get them. Take my letters and teach him respect.

Teach Kaiba respect by the heart of the cards, Yugi.

But, Grandpa, you need help. I need to take him to a doctor.

It seems like an excuse.

Your friends can take care of your grandfather while we duel.

Unless you're scared.

Take it, Yugi.

We can take care of your grandfather while taking care of the scary Kaiba.

Teach this spoiled rich guy how to duel.

For his grandfather, Yugi.

I don't know.

Trust in me.

You are the best player and there's the Millennium Puzzle.

You can do it, Yugi.

I know you can.

We all know.

It's okay, grandpa. I make.

I know you do, my boy.

Guys, put your hands together, and I will mark us with a special sign.

-What is this, Téa? -It is a symbol of our friendship.

So when Yugi is dueling, no matter how difficult it gets,

he will know he is not alone. We will be with him.

Joey, me and Tristan are going to take Yugi's grandfather to the hospital.

Why don't you go back there and support Yugi?

All good. Take good care of him, Téa.

I designed this virtual stadium myself. Impressive?

I think you agree that it adds a little more life to the game.

Each will start with 2,000 health. The first player to reach zero loses.

Are you ready to play, runt?

The game is over, Kaiba.

Yu-Gi-Oh!

-What... -Now, Kaiba, get ready

because it's time to duel.

Ready-made virtual systems,

so let's get started.

I will attack with the powerful Giant Hitotsu-Me.

Buckle up, Yugi. You've never dueled like this before.

The monster on the card came to life.

It's my virtual simulator.

Create holograms of everyone the Duel Monsters.

So this is how I beat my grandfather?

Well, now it's my turn.

I summon my Winged Dragon, Fortress Guardian

Monsters? Real monsters?

Fireball attack.

Brother, are you okay?

Very good. Go, Yugi.

Well played, Yugi, for a beginner.

But how will you deal with it?

Saggi the Dark Clown?

But this letter has almost no attack force.

True, the Winged Dragon's attack is 1,400 and my Shadow Clown's is only 600.

But if I combine it with this letter...

A magic card.

Exactly. The Negative Energy Generator

Multiplies the attack of my monster for three.

Dark Clown attack with Black Light.

As you can see, Uniting cards can be very effective.

He's good. He knows every aspect of this game.

But my grandfather put his knowledge game, all your heart

when making this deck.

I have to believe that there is some secret strategy.

This letter is useless. I can't stop the Dark Clown with her.

I'm going to have to use a different monster, in defense mode,

the monster will be sacrificed, but my life points will be safe.

Attack with Black Light.

Hang in there, Yugi.

Ain't doing no better than the old man, Yugi.

Your deck is so weak and fragile as your grandfather's.

My grandfather is a great man and a duelist better than you will ever be.

He entrusted me with his letters, and I can feel his heart in this deck.

I doubt you have that kind of faith in your letters, Kaiba.

What?

But I believe in my grandfather's deck.

And my faith rewards me with Gaia, The Fierce Knight...

with a destructive power of 2,300.

Congratulations, Yugi.

All right, Kaiba, it's your turn.

This will end sooner than you think.

I summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

No way.

Impossible. We all saw Kaiba tear the letter in half.

Surprised?

I think your grandfather was the only one

to have Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Your Fierce Knight has been destroyed.

With faith or without faith, you will fall before my superior monsters, Yugi.

This game is about power, you fool.

Faith is for losers, like your pathetic grandfather.

In your entire deck, doesn't have a letter

that you can face the Blue-Eyes White Dragon,

So what hope do you have against two?

Why don't you admit your defeat, Yugi?

Don't give up, Yugi.

I will not give up.

Grandpa is counting on me.

A magic card.

Swords of Revealing Light.

It paralyzes all monsters in the arena for three moves.

How desperate.

What possible benefit would a three-play stop bring you?

He's right. What do I do?

I don't know what to do with these letters.

They are several pieces.

How can I use them to combat an expert like Kaiba?

For someone who says they have faith, You give up easily, Yugi.

Listen, sometimes letters are like a puzzle.

You have to place the pieces in the right place.

-Like the Millennium Puzzle? -Exactly.

Every piece helps to make a larger entity.

Grandfather!

Like pieces of a puzzle, Yugi. Remember.

Puzzle? When the letters Are they like a puzzle?

Wait, Grandpa once said...

Duel Monsters contains only an uncontrollable monster: Exodia.

But he can only be invoked picking up all five special cards,

a feat that, to this day, was never accomplished.

Stop stalling, Yugi, or you will be declaring surrender.

I never surrender.

Another piece of the puzzle.

Take whatever card you want. It won't change anything.

My dragons might be frozen for two more moves,

but my new monster is not there under no spell.

The Judge, with attack power of 2,200.

I can attack with the Black Mage.

But he won't stand a chance when the dragons of Kaiba are free of my magic.

Black Mage, attack!

Your Judge falls.

A sacrifice that doesn't even intimidate me.

No dragon can move for one more play,

my next letter is the third Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Now, my dragon, attack.

So tell me, Yugi, How is your faith now?

On my next playthrough, the three Dragons Blue-Eyed Whites can attack.

The game is over regardless of the letter you pick up.

Can't go against my three Blue-Eyes White Dragons.

It's over, Yugi. You were never a match for me.

Don't listen, Yugi.

Kaiba had three Blue Eyes the whole time.

He just wanted Grandpa's letter so that it wouldn't be used against her.

My only chance now is to bring them all together the pieces of Exodia.

But the odds are against me.

I don't think I can do that.

The deck, he feels my doubt.

Don't lose focus, Yugi. Don't lose faith. Focus.

Our symbol of friendship.

Yugi, we are here with you.

Yugi, you have to believe in yourself.

You can do it, finish off Kaiba.

They're right.

I have to believe in the cards how my friends believe in me.

Take your last pathetic letter so I can end this, Yugi.

My grandfather's deck There are no pathetic cards, Kaiba,

but it contains the indestructible Exodia.

Impossible.

I gathered all the special cards, the five pieces of the puzzle.

Exodia? It's not possible.

No one has ever managed to summon him.

Exodia, obliterate!

You did it. Yugi, you won.

It can't be. My brother never loses.

You only play for power, Kaiba, and that's why he lost.

But if you play with your heart, you can do whatever you want.

But how? How could I have lost to him?

Kaiba, if you really want to know, open your mind.

There you go, Kaiba. Maybe now you'll start to see.

Grandpa is awake.

Yugi won.

Mr. Pegasus, sir,

Seto Kaiba, our undisputed champion was defeated in a duel

by a boy named Yugi.
