Well, they kind of were for all intents and purposes. It's similar to what Grant Kirkhope with the music in a lot of games he composed for in which they different parts can blend together seamlessly. In this case Atem and Yugi are two sides of the same coin, so it's music representing a character arc. It's masterfully done honestly.
This sort of represents Yugi and Yami's relationship. Yami is always the one that duels, Yugi is giving advice from the sidelines(as represented by the background support that is yugi's theme). But as the show progresses(the song ends) Yugi's skills tremendously increases and overshadows Yami's(the ending of the song) and thus Yugi becomes the duelist he was always meant to be. This mashup brought tears to my eyes.......
Yugi theme: modern, energetic, synth, has some gaps in basic Melody. Atem theme: ancient sounding, dramatic, orchestrated, has gaps in background rythym. Both together: modern yet ancient, energetic yet dramatic, synth and orchestra, complete. This I feel represents the duality of the two. Atem is dramatic and puts a lot of flair, he's older. Yugi is energetic and just wants to have fun dueling, he's younger, focusing on the here and now. When together, they complete eachother.
So, it would be a bit like... "I play Polymerization! This allows me to fuse two of my themes together! I choose Passionate Duelist and Yugi Muto's Theme!"
Yugi Muto, The Passionate Duelist [Theme/Fusion/Effect] ATK/(INFINITE) DEF/(INFINITE) This theme cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. This theme's Fusion Summon cannot be copyrighted. When this theme plays on your turn, you win the Duel.
When OG Passionate Duelist resembling old school Yu-Gi-Oh! This Passionate Duelist Dual Mix is for resembling modern Yu-Gi-Oh! No matter the timeline is, Yu-Gi-Oh! Always be the best card game ever.
I love that close up of Yugi. You can tell he is smiling, and that says a lot about him. Even tho he sometimes seems like a wimp who lets the pharaoh do his battles for him, he still loves dueling, he is great at it, and isn't afraid to back down from a challenge.

I think one, if not my favorite Yugioh memory has gotta be this one Local I went to. This guy had like 200LP left, and then his friends just pulled out a speaker and started playing this theme. Turns out, the guy’s deck revolves around wasting as much time as possible, getting down to low LP, then using a, quite frankly, obscene amount of spells and effects to get his LP back to full, and then using Odd-Eyes Revolution Dragon to shuffle everything back into his deck. That way, the duel effectively restarts, except his opponent had roughly 500 life points, no cards to defend, is being forced to come up with a strategy in like 10 seconds, and is about to lose half his remaining points. The best part is that I later realized that the deck even had a contingency for if Revolution was somehow countered: the opponent would have, say, 1/3 of his deck remaining, and the Stall guy probably has cards to deplete that. Is it lame as hell? Yeah. Does the Yugi theme make it funny? Yeah.
Atem's theme is an epic theme that sounds so good but adding yugi's drums to it made it more positively badass than just badass. Without it's just "got the card i needed for the combo, CUE THE MUSIC" But with Yugi's theme it becomes more like something that would be played in a final duel between the mc and rival
Believe in the power of your Millennium Puzzle, Yugi. He shall help you, as you will help him. Stay strong. Duel well. Believe in the Heart of the Cards
@@NickPooleEPK Yoooooo. Everything's great. Thanks for asking buddy. Man, my first comment is 4 years old. Time flies. I still listen to this theme from time to time. lol.
How anyone can hear this, Sealed Miracle, or God’s Anger and still think the dub’s soundtrack can compete in any way is beyond me. Subbed OST is far and away superior. No contest.
I just finished binging 1st gen yu gi oh and i was so satisfied by how high stakes and all out the very last duel was with yugi and atem This to me is like closure to see all this through
It's scary how well these two songs go together.
It almost feels like they were intentionally designed to run parallel to one another.
No kidding bro. It gives me goosebumps seeing how these two go perfectly well.
Thanks to this theme mash up, I may never hear the two other themes the same again.
Well, they kind of were for all intents and purposes. It's similar to what Grant Kirkhope with the music in a lot of games he composed for in which they different parts can blend together seamlessly.
In this case Atem and Yugi are two sides of the same coin, so it's music representing a character arc. It's masterfully done honestly.
Someone needs to make an AMV of the Mind-Shuffle part of the duel against Pegasus using this music. Yugi and Atem Dueling together!
its crazy right?
Rest in Peace Kazuki Takahashi. Thank you for all

You took the words out of my mouth. Can't wait to see how has Yugi grown in the new movie.
Johnathon McFarland yeah. 6 months. A lot should have gone inside his brain. Maybe he will defend his position as the king of games all by himself
I got the feeling that his duel with Kaiba is going to blow up. Also I hope that Mia and Serenity appear in the movie.
Johnathon McFarland also pumped for the new magician girl archtype
SomeCallme SonGoku same here. Can't wait for the new movie

And at the end, Yugi becomes his own man, while Atem's music becomes the supporting one
@@usmanqureshi8941 pretty poetic imo everyone who risen to the top eventuelly will be surpassed
@@yassinhafez1337 The heart of the cards
it is not frightening, it is ABSOLUTE
This sounds like it would be a 5ds version of Passionate Duelist.
I can hear Atem saying,
"Why on earth are we playing duel monsters on motorbikes?"
Monado Boy Imagine if Atem is on an Action Duel.
CARD GAHMES ON MOTABIKES!!!!!
@@justinesun7270
What about Atem on a DBoard?
Aromaseraphy Lavender Would be fun to him.
If your referencing little kuriboh, he actually says motorcycles not bikes
So, it would be a bit like...
"I play Polymerization! This allows me to fuse two of my themes together! I choose Passionate Duelist and Yugi Muto's Theme!"
Come forth, Yugi Muto, The Passionate Duelist!
More like super polymerization
Awesome line😂😂. How did I not think of that!?

Anyone said DUEL time?! Take your duel disk now!
You are right lad!
I give this pun approval
Can u not 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You should see the huge smile on my face! Brilliant!
+supporteedcoffee Thanks!
+supporteedcoffee The sensations in my head with this
We can see it in your profile pic
I love that Yugi's theme gradually gets louder, showing his growth as a person and duelist throughout his journey with Atem.
Stil at the end He stil had his meckbracelet
r.i.p master Kazuki Takahashi, thank you for the best card game ever made
You know why are we here today.
RIP Kaz. A legend among legend, may your legacy lives forever and never lose it's charm.

It's a shame that this doesn't have a lot of views, it should be on par with the other themes.
It should be official Atem theme :v
the English version of DM didnt even bother using this, wouldve been better than the one they used
Actually this one is better and fit with yugi
No
@@shantelleagosto1415 Yes
And I was thinking Passionate Duelist couldn't be more epic than it is... Guess I was wrong. :P
Believe in the power of your Millennium Puzzle, Yugi. He shall help you, as you will help him. Stay strong. Duel well.
Believe in the Heart of the Cards
Amen
And the bullshit main character powers!
@@Lukr4tive1008 Insert plot armor
This is gonna hit different from today on
I like it yugi and yami's theme mixed up
Ok
Rest in Peace legend...
it should been use in dark side of dimension (yugioh movie 2016)
Moment of Silence we all know why we are here....
you're a GENIUS
+Lomari Oussama Thanks a lot!
Thank you for everything, Kazuki Takahashi. R.I.P.
And it was at that moment I realized that the difference of both were implemented here. You're on the zone!
This is PERFECT!.
Combining all elements of the King of Duelists into one awesome theme... This should be in Duel Links.
Seto Kaiba disliked this
Bakura did that
Mehdi Drawings wat? yugioh manga?arc v??
normal manga cause actually Pegasus died in the manga after he lost his millénium eye from bakura cause he send him to the shadow realm
+Night Crowd Edogawa Read the Yugioh R mangs.
Franziska von Karma i actually read them 🙂
WoW i really liked it, think i found a new song while hitting the gym.
I tried that, but I triggered someones KFC trap card
Evenstar1985 what is this gym you speak of
@@eesedesesesrdtsuperjoshuab7907 i think its some kind of food
it's weird. the "mashup" is basically the same with a bit of "boots-and-cats-and," but it sounds so much better!
This... This is fucking art.
It's so beautiful.. I feel like I'm back in season 0 again.
I know this will never happen, but this sounds like some Smash reveal theme for Yugi in Smash lol
Even to this day... THIS IS LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST MASHUPS I HAVE EVER HEARD.
this is crazy just an addition to my yugioh addiction
The fact that their themes fit so perfectly together is really symbolic of they’re relationship
what makes this even cooler is that it legit sounds so similar to the dub's opening
I Love You! This Is my new theme. I read, Work Out, Play Games, and Sleep to this. It's the best. You really did a good job with this.
Have been listening to this in some way or another everyday. It's also my ringtone. I came back to this video just to dislike so I can like again.
Back again a year later to redownload on my new phone.
New phone time to redownload this once again.
@@NeoDeity It's been 2 years since your last comment,how's everything going now?
@@NickPooleEPK Yoooooo. Everything's great. Thanks for asking buddy. Man, my first comment is 4 years old. Time flies. I still listen to this theme from time to time. lol.
Why have I only found this mashup now?Brilliant!
This was amazing to listen to. I love this BGM and to hear it in this majestic and up beat way is incredible. Well done.
"Reverse cards within reverse cards awaits you Xemnas."

This is literally one of the best things I've ever heard. Great job!

@@arbitrary-human yeah so?
@@Cake-Goku
That's against the rules, isn't it?
Been playing Duel Links and I start playing this when I am playing as Yami or Yugi while I pull off a low LP win. This is amazing.
Epic! Liked in just the first ten seconds of the video :D
Isn't it amazing how these two themes go so well together? It's almost as if the composer was waiting for a mashup of the two.
Been LOOKING for this version for SO LONG! Thanks! :D
This is fantasticcccc!!!!
This sounds like a Super Smash Bros remix, and it's done very well.
have been looking for this version. Thanks for having it.
The best kind of mashup!
+Jason Cruz Thanks!
This made me tear up a little. Well done^^
This is really GOOD!!!
Awesome bro
me when i finish math test only 15 minutes
Never finished your english test tho
Thanos
damn that was fucking cold
that escalated quickly
@@eyepatchakko true xD
Me when I only have 5 minutes left for the test!
Finally found this particular theme ! Awesome job
This mix is so clean that, were it not mentioned as an edit in the title, I'd think it part of the original soundtrack. Excellent job !
Damn this pretty fucking good. They should really use this.
Pretty good. I added it to one of my playlists.
This is some top tier shit! Good job
Ah, this sounds great. Man, someone need to recommend great musics like these.
How anyone can hear this, Sealed Miracle, or God’s Anger and still think the dub’s soundtrack can compete in any way is beyond me. Subbed OST is far and away superior. No contest.
huuuuge thanks for making this bro
RIP kazuki takahashi
I would LOVE to see these two duel as a team (double duel), and this mashup seems like it would be the music playing as they win the duel.
Nice!!!!
Came here to remember the true king of game's
when yugi summon Red Gadget and Yellow gadget! this music plays hahaaha oh shit damn so hype.
Can NEVER get enough of Passionate Duelist :D
love it!
Cool mix!!!
FIRE AF
This is perfect :D
play this song when u drew the exact card u needed to beat your opponent
Is it normal to get a long 20 min flashback about friendship?
Yes, and if you don't, you may have just activated your opponents' trap card. Or need to get new friends. Or seek medical attention.
And say it was just believing when laughting of their dead bodies!
This is the song that plays when Tristan's voice changes
u mean yugis voice
I'm using this song for my game in the future
cool
Dude this SLAPS
This would be perfect if they fought in a tag duel, like Kaiba and Mokuba vs Yugi and Atem.
Omg this song brought tears to meh eyes :p
This video deserves more views.
The Pharaoh is preparing for a big move to win the duel
King of Games
When this plays, someone is gonna get an asspull outta nowhere
Tremendo Ost.
when you draw the perfect card for your comeback combo
This is the theme that's been stuck in my head every time I will win tournaments or during tournaments whenever I duel
I just finished binging 1st gen yu gi oh and i was so satisfied by how high stakes and all out the very last duel was with yugi and atem
This to me is like closure to see all this through
When you’re playing uno and Draw Slifer the Sky Dragon and 3 other cards to sacrifice (You have 12 cards)
Best. Mashup. EVER!! I love it so much!! I love it! I love it!
Nice remix ^^
This is a great mashup to read the manga to. Thanks.
This hits hard on another level.
Best thing I've heard in a while
This plays when you have 100 lp and you make a comeback
