Notes
Quotes
Kaiba: Draw your last pathetic card so I can end this Yugi!
Yami Yugi: My grandfather's deck has no pathetic cards, Kaiba. But it does contain the unstoppable Exodia!

Joey: Hey Kaiba, maybe we should duel sometime.
Kaiba: No thanks, I think I will have much more of a challenge playing solitaire.

Kaiba: You will fall before my superior monsters, Yugi.....

Kaiba: NO! How could I lose?!?! **pulling out hair***
Yami Yugi: If you really want to know, Kaiba...OPEN YOUR MIND!

Kaiba: "Exodia? It... it's not possible! No one's ever been able to call HIM!"

Goofs and Nitpicks
  • Gaia the Fierce Knight is referred to as Gaia the Dark Knight in this episode.
  • When Kaiba's Saggi destroyed Yugi's moster in defence mode, the monster that Yugi had played was Sangan, but he never used its effect to let him search his deck for a monster with an ATK of 1500 or less.
  • note with the sangan thing, in the show, it has a cape on, yet on the card, there's no cape. Same with the rebecca duel.
  • In the early episodes, monsters summoned after the activation of Swords of Revealing Light were immune to its effects, however this changed later on.
  • Correction: Sangan never had a cape, in the first episode, Sangan is destroyed and twirls round' and round', making it look like a cape, but in the Rebecca episode, it didn't have a cape either, that was just Celtic Guardian's Cape visible through the holographic projecor, his cape is on when sangan is destroyed, it is CELTIC GUARDIAN'S CAPE!
  • When Kaiba plays 'Negative Energy', he puts it on the table but he holds his hand over it. If you look closely, it hasn't been edited from the Japanese-style card to the American-styled card.
  • Correction: When seto plays "negative energy" he places his hand on the card, the english producers would not make an english card. They just couldn't fit the editing , so they left it a Japanese card; anyway, it was the first episode so they can't see everything at first. -submitted by: SteffenMC
