Anime Whats with YuGiOh? Has he gone mad?

[Pagan]

So Yugi won all these duels to get to the final but he has only one card as a prize. I just don't get it he could have so many good cards but yet all he has is a sorry God Card. He could have regained Exodia from the the first Rare Hunter. He could have had a weird colored Dark Magicain from Arcana. By the way why is it that color anyway did they just do that for the show, so you could tell the difference. Yugi could have got a masked beast or maybe a powerful mask card from light mask and dark mask, but naw the only thing he has to show for his trouble is the weakest of the God Cards.

Why didn't he claim his prizes for his hard work like Joey. And whats with that Dark Magicians color?

[DeathBug]

Well, let's examine Yugi's duels in BC:

Rare Hunter: In the original manga, the Rare Hunter's Exodia pieces are counterfiet cards, and that's why YUgi doesn't take them. I reckon that the reason he didn't take any of them in the anime is that he *still* wouldn't have Exodia, and his new deck couldn't support the Exodia theme.

Arkana: The Dark Magician is a card Yugi has a very personal relationship with. As such, he decided to only keep his own, and not take his opponent's.

Lumis/Umbra: All of their cards are useless on their own, b/c their decks work together. Masked Beast needs the Ritual, Death Guardius needs the 4-Faced Beast or Tiki Elder...their decks relied on too much support for a single card to be effective on its own.

Besides, in the Arkana duel, Yugi was more involved in talking with Marik, and in the Lumis/Umbra duel, he was more concerned with getting his friends back than cards. (Remember, it was Kaiba who remembered to take the two locator cards.)

The simple explanation might be that he simply was too concentrated on other matters, and forgot to grab some new cards. It's not like his deck needed them.

As for the different-colored DM, it's possible that Yugi's DM is unique to himself, and all other DM are the red color. It makes sense; Arkana alone used two red DM and had a third waiting in the wings, and we've never seen another purple DM.

You forget the obvious fact that when Yugi challenged the Rare Hunter, he said that he must return Joey's Red Eyes if he lost.

The Red Dark Magician is actually a japanese promo Dark Magician . It's validation number is P4-02. Here's a pic of it.[url]http://store4.yimg.com/I/dragonballzcentral_1757_17176752[/url]

It is because Yugi believes in "the heart of the cards" to guide him the way that he treats them with the most respect and I guess because of that...his Dark Magician could be purple...or it could be what shadowfire said....it's a Japanese promo....

Arkana? I'm guessin you mean Pandora(Arkana must be the dub name givin to him. -_- But yeah, he already had the Black Magician(I hate sayin "Dark Magician".)so he didnt want the other one(although he did use that Black Magician against Pandora to power up Black Magician Girl. Plus, he probably forgot about getting the other card aswell due to the fact that he was too busy worrying about Malik and trying to stay alive from that blade that was about to slice him in half.

[spoiler]But he does take a couple of cards towards the end from different players(and its not JUST one of the Kami No Cardo's)before his final battle with Malik.[/spoiler] You'll find out what those are...hmm, next year.

[COLOR=#503F86][SIZE=1][b]yugi123, I don't know what your point is, but that post is definately spam. Don't post comments that are irrelevant to the thread, much less ones so short and incoherant.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/b]

Speaking of Yugi's Dark Magician Girl, why do we only see him use it once in the series. Is it not a big card for Yugi? Or is it the special bond he has for the Dark Magician?

[Digital Monster]

So far he's played Dark Magician Girl twice, vs. Arkana and Y. Bakura, and is set to use her again. I might have some more info somewhere, PM me if you wanna know.

[Solo Tremaine]

[COLOR=#503F86]He used her against Strings the Mime as well, so that's three aappearances in all.

But anyway, let's get back to the topic. As DeathBug said, Yugi never really had a proper opportunity to nick a decent card from the duelists he played that he can use, save for Slifer.

As for Joey- he did take some good cards, but when he took the Fortress Whale he didn't take the Ritual Magic card used to summon it. And as far as I know, he doesn't have Umi or The Legendary Ocean to work with The Legendary Fisherman. Still, he took what he could when he had the chance, even though he might not be able to use them to their full potential.[/COLOR]
