exactly most other rivals in anime accept their spot as second best by the half of the series like vegeta and shadow from sonic but kaiba never settles he always come back for another duel
Imagine in the Yugioh world, some kid takes over a weapons company involved in at least one war, then turns it into a company that does entertainment. He would be seen as a hero
Then proceeds to single handely invent holograms and space technology BY HIMSELF in the 90s! Also use theoretical science/egyptian magic to create a energy reactor made of SOLID LIGHT to give unlimited free energy to the whole planet, ending wars and turning Earth into what is essencially a sci- fi utopia where things are decided in children card games with free education in said games provided by him. Seto Kaiba not only is a hero but a civilisational buff to whatever world he happens to exist in.
Fun fact: kaiba battles his father complex in his duells. In 2008 the author takahashi talked about kaiba. He actually felt responsible for his fathers suicide and it "haunted him". This also triggered the thinking of games meaning death. His stepfathers dead and the lost of a foe to play "games" against also triggered some insanity.
@@jamesmckinney6768 simply because the character is the main character is not a reason to make him the "best" character, what a narrow way of thinking. There is a reason vegeta, sasuke, bakugou, and kaiba are are typically loved more then their main characters. And that's because of there complexity and character development. When you compare them to the average shounen anime main character who's goals are all SUPER similar and overused. People love when they stray from the path a little bit and make their rivals unique. That is what makes kaiba a better character then yugi. Having clear flaws and using those flaws as amazing character traits. You can't think yugioh without thinking of kaiba.
I realized that kaiba and tony stark are kinda similar in the fact that they both take a company that was known for war weapons and change it up for the better good.
Casswury did he though?? I mean, when did we see him with a woman? Not to my recollection. Tony on the other hand, it would’ve been as soon as Jarvis would let him out of his sight 🤣
Casswury but we are talking about a guy whose level is to build a portal to the afterlife to play a children’s card game with a guy who is dead for 5000 years and that is a hard level to beat
Tony and kaiba is kindna similar tbh both have a company that start off being a military company but change to a company that help poor people Both are asshole kaiba being the serious kind while tony being more hilarious and Quipster Both are super smart and use their intelligence to build hightech object to help their purpose kaiba with his numerous duel disk and VR dimension and tony and his armors
2:15 There's so many examples of Kaiba's disdain toward Joey in the English dub that you could point to, but for some reason, one of my favorites has always been in the KC Grand Championship arc, when Kaiba specifically tells Mokuba to ensure Wheeler is late for the tournament registration process so that he'll be DQ'd from the whole tourney. That's just so absurdly petty and disrespectful, and I love it.
@@jsb6975.ah.crapbasketsJoey is to him what he is to yugi. Someone aiming for his spot. Neither him nor Joey will be satisfied with second and third, but why the hatred? They do all this in opposing ways; yugi(atem in this case) wins for status, kaiba for power, and Joey for fun. And while Kaiba respects status he can not fathom fun.
Kaiba is the very definition of hardcore. He: -Had his gorillas beat an old man just to take his card and then rip it -Built a jet based on his favorite card -Risked his life just to not lose a game -Had a whole city paralized to make a tournament just to defeat his archrival -Exploded the place where he lost in the tournament, a place he himself chose -Was about to destroy the souls of innocents just to win a card game for his company -Travelled to Egypt just to prove others wrong -Excavated an ancient egyptian artifact, which probably costed millions -Built a space elevator, just for the zero gravity -Travelled through time just to play a game with his archrival And all of this....JUST FOR THE SAKE OF CHILDREN'S CARD GAMES
Dude got stripped of the ability to play any games as a kid after getting adopted- Makes sense he would go nuts to play children's games once Gozaburo's ass went down. * shrug * I still stan.
fun fact: Kaiba didn't actually go back in time, he went to the actual afterlife 1 year and people are still replying to my dumb comment? 4 years later, wow I'm old
Honestly if I was the god of that universe I'd be super amused with Kaiba and his raw will, intellect and pride. No wonder why Obelisk likes him. I've always liked him (as you can see by my name) but dsod multiplied my respect and liking towards him.
No. No. Thats not what happened at all. He didn't build a time machine. He used the cube to simulate Egypt and the Pharoah but the cube is the only thing to completely replicate the Pharoah from his memories. Jesus.
@@IHazMunchies91 I believe in the manga tie-in Transcend Game, Sera mentions the Plana's power to move between dimensions. I theorize that the technology Kaiba uses is based on that, and that he tunneled into the afterlife (rather than into the past, or yet another simulation -- which he already expressed earlier in the movie would not be enough to sate his desire to beat the real Pharaoh.) Also, if it was a simulation, Mokuba wouldn't be so worried that Seto might not come back.
@@IHazMunchies91 Uh, you do realize the movie was called, "Dark Side of _Dimensions_ , " right? So he'd be able to use the cube to travel to a different _dimension_ like the "afterlife". If it was a simulation he wouldn't be withering, as if thanos tried to dust him away, like he was in the movie. Edit: Jesus.
After all those years, Seto Kaiba is still my biggest crush xD I fell in love with his character since Yu Gi Oh! first aired on German kids television.
I think you missed Kaiba's character trait that deep underneath his stubbornness, arrogance, and selfishness, he has a caring heart. Particularly when Marik's slave was about to drop a container on Téa, Kaiba badass-ly snipes the goon's hand with his own Blue-Eyes card, then lunges a knee into the lackey before he can recover.
Shadow91507 Yeah I agree, like he had a really crappy childhood, I think I read somewhere that Gozaburo Kaiba actually used a dog training shock collar on Seto to keep him from falling asleep! Seto was secretly a sweetheart, he protected his brother from bullies at the orphanage, and although he got adoption offers all the time for being handsome and smart he never abandoned his brother, He stopped a billion dollar mass producing weapons company and turned it into a gaming company, he built a theme park that allows orphans to go in for free, I mean don't get me wrong he could be nasty at times but he's not heartless 😊
Shadow91507 He sure is 😊 I've always loved Seto, I remember running home from school to watch Yu-Gi-Oh! Back when I was 8 or 9 and then being super sad Seto wasn't in the episode but it was cool cause there was alway Joey or Bakura to entertain me until he came back 😄
@@Shadow91507 Kinda surprised people miss those things. They're directly a part of his backstory. The "turning a weapons company into a gaming company" thing even comes up as a plot point during the Doma arc. Also, he completely defies a lot of the "typical Billionare CEO" behaviors. He pays his employees really well and he's always putting his money into big projects rather than sitting on it, plus he actually does his fair share of the work, personally designing and testing new products, rather than just getting his engineers to do everything.
@@quickjessy2657 I don't think so, he seemed to be somewhat protected by his tech. He just created a machine to transport him there. Based on atems reaction to kaiba it's not time travel.
Kaiba is my favorite character, and I can’t think of a single match he lost where the opponent wasn’t cheating by using a millennium item or a kidnapped mokuba to force his hand. Yugi - Millennium Puzzle Pegasus - Millennium Eye Dartz- Not really defeated because he saved yugi’s ass multiple times, and Dartz lost the duel. Plus Dartz was on some crazy magic oricalculator shit mayne Noah - Literally used Mokuba as a human shield to win, but still technically lost the duel after Yugi stepped in. Take away all the magic and he is the greatest duelist ever with no special abilities besides being obscenely rich and owning the biggest company in the world.
Kaiba was about to be wiped out by the rare hunters more than once but Yugi saved him. In the Dartz duel Yugi saved him again twice. A great character and excellent duelist but not the best.
Kaiba outright cheated by pulling the Blue-Eyes that he stole out of is pocket and top decked it in his first duel with Yami in the manga. And Millennium Puzzle grants no special dueling power in the manga.
@@Ramona122003..having a 5 thousand year old spirit who was there when the game was created guide you is kinda cheating mate?? like, Bandit Keith specifically mentions getting help during a duel is illegal, so every duel Atem participates in is cheating
@@treemannick2969 well that depends on when the events of the movie happened. If it's before gx then yes he did. But if it happened after then we don't know/probably didn't
@@ishmaelvilmenay3340 polymerization is in his hand when he plays chaos max dragon and he never used it once in that duel so it's safe to say his last play was a bluff.
I always interpreted it as Kaiba was bluffing and was going to lose. The reason he smiled was something of a realization that he didn't need the Pharaoh because Yugi really was a fantastic duelist who bested both of them, and would be the one Kaiba can challenge and heal/mourn with in their own way. Then he got the cube and was like "Well, might as well settle the score anyways." Cause he comes back and at least works with Yugi as there was official art showing them in his space station together, creating Yugi's new game together. With Kaiba even looking happy.
Kaiba Corp, Kaiba Land, Duel Academy, Battle city, KCPG, Ener D research, Solid Vision, Duel Disks...besides his Duellist skills, Kaiba is by far (one of) the most iconic character of the franchise.
I used to have a crush on him in middle school I would doodle his KC logo on my notes 😅cause I thought it looked cool when everyone else was drawing those S designs
It wasnt a time machine. He went to the Egyptian afterlife. That's why Atem smiled, he was welcoming a healthy friendly duel. Gotta remember in Atem's time duel monsters was a real battle. Having some random dude show up in the past I'm sure they would all get ready to kill seto but instead Atem smiled because he knew who seto was. How would Atem know him if seto traveled time? Therefore it wasnt the past it was just their version of an afterlife.
i think he was smiling during his duel with yugi in DSOD cause know he knows he was going to lose and that yugi isnt just a shell for yami and he actually is a very skillful duelist he can respect.
I don't see Kaiba admitting Yugi is better than Pharaoh AND STILL AT THE VERY END STILL PROCEEDS TO GO TO THE AFTERLIFE TO FACE THE PHARAOH... MEN COME ON THAT'S JUST PURE LOGIC!!
@@Lonely_Ronin never said he was better than atem but kaiba respcts him more and now sees him as a skilled duelist lol looks like somebody cant read at all.
I dunno, I got the impression the duel was interrupted solely so Yugi wouldn't lose. I have full confidence in the fact that Kaiba was going to win that duel had Aigami not shown up. The slow drop in Kaiba's life points, the smirk, and the fact that he still had a face down card all support this.
When I was a kid I used to hate this guy and Blue-Eyes but now I love him so much,he's my favorite Yugioh character and Blue-Eyes is my favorite deck to use! Ironic isn't it?
I think the only thing that stopped me from loving Kaiba from the start was his Episode 1 behavior and lack of sympathetic characteristics. Mokuba goes through his Duelist Kingdom experience, he and Kaiba are shown to legitimately care for each other, and the Battle City Finals showing that he's simply frustrated and has an actual deep connection to Blue Eyes all combined to make Kaiba my absolute favorite character in the series, with a Blue Eyes deck becoming my dream deck, not that I've actually played a single bit of Yugioh. When I saw BEUD, I was like "Whoa." When Kaiba became a character that I could love without the "but he's a bad guy" taboo, BEUD immediately became my most hyped card. The summoning soundtrack only helps.
Man it is so good seeing this series again and starting of with the king of roasting other dualist Seto Kaiba is good he has some of the best roast in dual links in both his dual monster world as well as the new dark side of dimensions world which I thought that after 5ds we would have gotten zexal cause of the order of each series but this is better
Seto used the Millennium Cube and SCIENCE to travel to the afterlife, not the past. That's why he was the only person in Egypt being erased and why Atem was smiling, since Atem sealed his soul in a puzzle and had his name erased from history after banishing Zorc and all Duel Spirits/Monsters in people and coexisting with people for 3000 years up til Pegasus happened.
Me: Playing Buster Blader deck in Duel Links A random Kaiba player, playing Blue Eyes deck: You're the third rate duelist with a fourth rate deck! Me: Guess Imma end this man entire career then!
@Hans Hanzo nah, pegasus made the game but it didn't factor in to everything ppl did, then kaiba came in and gave it all the hologram tech and sponsored a shit load of events then built a goddamn academy, and that's just what we know of Kaibe was still young at the end of gx and we didn't really get much info on what he was doing
I didn't always like Kaiba, but when i grew up i realized how interesting and awesome he really is! By the way, this video was amazing and hilarious 😂 Kaiba is such a Yugioh meme
I know that very little thought had been put into how Duel Monsters would work if it was a real game at that point but I never understood why Kaiba didn't get a ton of more powerful cards like Barrel Dragon and Summoned Skull to fill out the deck. While cards like that seemed to be ridiculously rare, he seemed like he would be able to afford them.
He used Saggi the Dark Clown in The Dark Side of Dimension. I was like: “Ok Kaiba, if you really wanted to beat Pharaoh so badly, at least get that weak ass monster out of your deck!”
You probably crazy if you think Kaiba will ever accept some one is better than him... If Dark Magician is on the field, thrust me Blue-Eyes ain't far...
From what I've heard, Kaiba's face down card was actually Polymerization, which can be seen in his hand now and again during the Duel, and he never actually used, so he Set it. It's possible that he could have been grinning as he finally realized Yugi had grown as a Duelist and became worthy of challenging him.
@@Lonely_Ronin That's fair. But still, Kaiba did actually have Poly., but it has been a little while since I've watched the Duel so I can't remember what his hand looked like during the end.
And the sarcasm is hilarious LOL, I love that line but my favorite line from the waking the dragons arc is when he's talking to Yami and Yami tells him to accept his destiny and help them: "If I had a dime for every time you used the word destiny, I'd be even richer." 😂😂😂 I love that line LOL.
Hey man, love you’re content, always entertaining to me. It’d be cool if you can make a video over the best main YGO rival. Anyway, just wanted to bring up a few stuff: 1) Seto didn’t use a time machine, he dimension transported to the after life(probably not mentioned in the YGO dub). 2) Its true that Mokuba and Seto where placed in an orphanage. But there was more to the story. After Seto’s parents death, his relatives(probably aunts or uncles) stripped Mokuba and Seto of their inheritance and abandoned them in an orphanage. To say they where homeless after the parents death and placed in an orphanage was probably the story in the dub. Partially true but lighter than the actual story. 3) not sure I understood what you meant about card of Demise not being seen outside of POL. but to clarify Card of Demise was used by Seto in episode 195 against Zigfried.
Ooooooooh yes, I’ve been excited to see this episode remade. Nice work! I liked that you managed to work in his theme from the anime right at the start too
In the manga, too, Kaiba did ripped the fourth Blue Eyes White Dragon because the monster refused to obey him. This, therefore, made the common Yugioh rule of only 3 copies of the same card.
Regarding the Dark Side of Dimensions DNF of kaiba vs Yugi. Yugi won for 2 reasons 1) kaiba life points were going down in the damage calculation, not many cards can be activated if any, during damage calculation and since kaibas life points were 2500 and Dark Magician Atk was 2500 his poimts became 0 and kaiba lost. 2)when Seto is ritual summoning blue eyes chaos MAX dragon u can see Polymerisation in his hand and myslef and others have gone through the duel and the only card he could have set was poly (and kaiba is used to setting poly as he did in the battle city semi finals). So Yugi accurately called Kaiba bluff Which is probably the reason why kaiba was smiling as it was in acknowledgement that Yugi is the true King of Games a worthy opponent and now kaiba has a new rival to defeat (who you know is not in the afterlife). Congrats Yugi!
@@anetery1226 fact is they didnt come up with anything and there is no card in the entire game that could have saved him in that situation. and if there was it would break the game.
U guys be just fanboys saying non-sense... We all know anime face down cards have broken effects and yet you want me to believe Kaiba just threw a polymerisation as a face down??? Are you guys really that dense??
I feel like Kaiba was smiling because Yugi was about win and in Kaiba's eyes he finally became an opponent on equal footing with the pharaoh but he's so focused on Atem is because he was the one who truly beat him and scorned his pride.
I like the implication that all of the blue eyes support cards kaiba uses were made specifically for him because he's the only one that had blue eyes white dragon in the anime
To clear something about what kaiba did at the end of DSOD, kaiba did actually travel back in time but the reason it may not be as clear is because he used aigami cube therefore something related to dimensions manipulation which definitely confused a lot of people so the reason the cube permitted him to time travel is because this time travel follows the modern and new theory of time traveling that has previously been shown in Dragon ball z in android/cell saga and the marvel movie End game (there are way too many others but those were the 2 on my mind) What this theory states that when you travel back in time you are not actually returning to your own actual past instead you are entering a PARALLEL universe also said alternate DIMENTION. Meaning the actions you take are creating a new dimention rather than changing your own world meaning your actions do not affect your world but creates a new one referred to as a branch in the time. That is why dimentions are connected to that it is because travelling in time is considered a form of traveling through dimentions which is further supported or more specifically hinted with what Aigami did to joey were it is as if he sent him to his past
Gotta thank Eric Stuart for the hilarious sarcasm he added to Kaiba, I can't stand Kaiba but I love the sarcasm. Regarding voicing his role as Kaiba, Eric has said that he feels it's Kaiba's sense of honor that really ground him from not being completely hated. He also said he liked the challenge of walking the fine line between being a rival and not a villain, which I think he did very well. I think you should have gone a little more into his past self as Priest Seto. P.S.: A small bit of information for fans who might not know(since not all fans do), but Eric Stuart is also a singer/songwriter. He has his own band and currently has 9 albums out. Good character profile, glad you finally finished off the Kaiba family 😄
Actually it was meant that kazuki takahashi would have written a plot on the priest seto saga with blue eyes girl and all But short after he fall sick He got hospitalise and the direction board decided to shorten the arc So that kazuki gets time to recover And the rest was history
Finally I've been waiting for this profile.... One of my favourite characters in Yugioh.... And I like how you started the video with Kaiba's soundtrack...I really hope they could make a Seto Kaiba\Duke Devlin Solo series...
I think the most prominent reference to Seth is that the he also represents "rebellion", as shown in Seto's character where he's always a man of action. he won't allow fate or authority to push him around. rebellion also directly oppose authority, which Atem (and Horus) represent
Kaiba's facedown in DoD during his duel with Yugi was Polymerization. It was shown in his hand during the duel but he never played it and it was the only card that could have been left by the time Yugi defeats him. actually you can see it right at the end of this video when your talking about what cards Kaiba started using in DoD.
Duel Links also gives voice lines for support cards that the charater never used. For example, Jaden/Yubel has a line for Neos Fusion, a card made in 2016 or 2017. Kaiba never used Spirit of White or Solid Dragon.

Kaiba been creating a machine to travel to the after life cause he could not accept his defeat but yet he would accept losing to Yugi... Fascinating reflection you got right there 👍🏽
@@Lonely_Ronin Atem and Yugi aren't the same character bro. He's admitting that Yugi is a worthy opponent of respect. But Kaiba needs a rematch with the Pharaoh to move on with his life. That's not contradictory at all.
Makes sense. And acknowledging that someone is in fact better than him would be a huge point in character development for Kaiba. His attitude was a bit better in the film than the series, he seemed genuine when he told Yugi "take care". The boy just needed closure and he traveled to the afterlife to get it xD
In the manga, he actually started off as a villain and tried to kill Yugi and his friends after losing a card game. The manga is basically the card game version of Saw. That said, he is one of my favorite Yugioh characters.
Yeah the manga gets dark at times. I can’t remember what it was called but years ago there were a few episodes before the series started (basically when Yugi first gets the puzzle in pieces and before he’s friends with Joey and Tristian) where they play shadow realm games and loser loses his soul
I really really really wish they make a series where its solely based off Atem's past life, life with Yugi and co, then After life. So we get Atem's entire life and not just snipits of it even though the final season had a bit of his childhood
@@KyoKatTheCookie23 Honestly, I've just heard it being played by my sister. I don't know the song name but I always misheard the lyrics as "Se-Seto Kaiba!"
The card was still face down when Kaiba took the hit. I think that grin was Kaiba realizing he lost, but for the first time since he last dueled Atem, he had the sensation of dueling him.
2:12 *"You.Are.Worthless! And you shouldn't have been in my tournament in the first place! Now then, go ahead and make your move. Cause' you've wasted enough of my time already!"* 2:41
You forgot about Seto Kaiba's rediculously broken virus cannon, whose effect is send all spell cards in your opponents hand and deck to the graveyard, which he combo'd with his other virus to throw away 80% of his opponents deck.
Oh man, it would be great if you revisited this series. The early videos are great but I would love to see a more up-to-date in-depth series with you present TH-cam experience.
Obviously this analysis came out 3 years ago, however I just realized that Blue Eyes White Dragon is a Light type monster, while Dark Magician is obviously a Dark type monster. However, in the early original yugioh series, most people, myself included were trying to consider if Kaiba was a “Dark” antagonist, while the Pharaoh and Yugi are seen as the “Light” protagonists. It’s such an interesting dynamic to think about

1 year and people are still replying to my dumb comment?
4 years later, wow I'm old
Yep. And Atem was impressed
Honestly if I was the god of that universe I'd be super amused with Kaiba and his raw will, intellect and pride. No wonder why Obelisk likes him. I've always liked him (as you can see by my name) but dsod multiplied my respect and liking towards him.
No. No. Thats not what happened at all. He didn't build a time machine. He used the cube to simulate Egypt and the Pharoah but the cube is the only thing to completely replicate the Pharoah from his memories. Jesus.
@@IHazMunchies91 I believe in the manga tie-in Transcend Game, Sera mentions the Plana's power to move between dimensions. I theorize that the technology Kaiba uses is based on that, and that he tunneled into the afterlife (rather than into the past, or yet another simulation -- which he already expressed earlier in the movie would not be enough to sate his desire to beat the real Pharaoh.)
Also, if it was a simulation, Mokuba wouldn't be so worried that Seto might not come back.
@@IHazMunchies91 Uh, you do realize the movie was called, "Dark Side of _Dimensions_ , " right? So he'd be able to use the cube to travel to a different _dimension_ like the "afterlife". If it was a simulation he wouldn't be withering, as if thanos tried to dust him away, like he was in the movie.
Edit: Jesus.
HE IS FINALLY BACK!

"SETO FREAKING KAIBA!"
After all those years, Seto Kaiba is still my biggest crush xD I fell in love with his character since Yu Gi Oh! first aired on German kids television.
U gay
Omg yes both him and Marik 🥵
I had a crush on Atem haha xD
He was my very first anime crush😍
Yess!!!! Seto is bae and one of the best characters in the anime. I just love his personality and how he looks as well.
Screw the rules i have money
- seto kaiba yu-gi-oh the abridged series
Screw the rules i have green hair!
Screw the ancient Egyptian magic I’m SETO F**KING KAIBA!!!
Screweth yon rules! I hath Chivalry
@@yhongxiang Screw the rules! I hate stairs!
Shut up mokuba!
I think you missed Kaiba's character trait that deep underneath his stubbornness, arrogance, and selfishness, he has a caring heart. Particularly when Marik's slave was about to drop a container on Téa, Kaiba badass-ly snipes the goon's hand with his own Blue-Eyes card, then lunges a knee into the lackey before he can recover.
Shadow91507
Yeah I agree, like he had a really crappy childhood, I think I read somewhere that Gozaburo Kaiba actually used a dog training shock collar on Seto to keep him from falling asleep!
Seto was secretly a sweetheart, he protected his brother from bullies at the orphanage, and although he got adoption offers all the time for being handsome and smart he never abandoned his brother,
He stopped a billion dollar mass producing weapons company and turned it into a gaming company, he built a theme park that allows orphans to go in for free, I mean don't get me wrong he could be nasty at times but he's not heartless 😊
@@KyoKatTheCookie23 Wow! Never knew he did all those lesser known things! He just became more badass...
Shadow91507
He sure is 😊 I've always loved Seto, I remember running home from school to watch Yu-Gi-Oh! Back when I was 8 or 9 and then being super sad Seto wasn't in the episode but it was cool cause there was alway Joey or Bakura to entertain me until he came back 😄
@@Shadow91507
Kinda surprised people miss those things. They're directly a part of his backstory. The "turning a weapons company into a gaming company" thing even comes up as a plot point during the Doma arc.
Also, he completely defies a lot of the "typical Billionare CEO" behaviors. He pays his employees really well and he's always putting his money into big projects rather than sitting on it, plus he actually does his fair share of the work, personally designing and testing new products, rather than just getting his engineers to do everything.
Him and Joey are the best developed characters in all of Yugioh

It wasn't a time machine, he traveled to the afterlife.
He killed himself
@@quickjessy2657 I don't think so, he seemed to be somewhat protected by his tech. He just created a machine to transport him there. Based on atems reaction to kaiba it's not time travel.
Exactly idk why people call it a time machine it's clearly not a time machine if you paid any attention to the movie
@@heavy5013 do you know if there will be another movie?
@@quickjessy2657 no clue but I hope so. I want to see shinning dragon again too.
Kaiba is my favorite character, and I can’t think of a single match he lost where the opponent wasn’t cheating by using a millennium item or a kidnapped mokuba to force his hand.
Yugi - Millennium Puzzle
Pegasus - Millennium Eye
Dartz- Not really defeated because he saved yugi’s ass multiple times, and Dartz lost the duel. Plus Dartz was on some crazy magic oricalculator shit mayne
Noah - Literally used Mokuba as a human shield to win, but still technically lost the duel after Yugi stepped in.
Take away all the magic and he is the greatest duelist ever with no special abilities besides being obscenely rich and owning the biggest company in the world.
Kaiba is one of my favorite characters, but he is also PTW.
Kaiba was about to be wiped out by the rare hunters more than once but Yugi saved him. In the Dartz duel Yugi saved him again twice. A great character and excellent duelist but not the best.
Kaiba outright cheated by pulling the Blue-Eyes that he stole out of is pocket and top decked it in his first duel with Yami in the manga. And Millennium Puzzle grants no special dueling power in the manga.
He also threatened to fucking kill himself if Yugi wouldn't surrender. He's a petty motherfucker this Kaiba guy.
@@Ramona122003..having a 5 thousand year old spirit who was there when the game was created guide you is kinda cheating mate?? like, Bandit Keith specifically mentions getting help during a duel is illegal, so every duel Atem participates in is cheating
It's not a time machine, It's a dimension teleportation bro. He travel to the afterlife just for that sweet GG! Now that's dedication. 🤣
I'm pretty sure it's more then dedication if you read the fanfics
Its love dude...
Hes officially Gay now for Atem
@@sahilm483 well there was Kisara. So maybe bi?
Did he come back tho?
@@treemannick2969 well that depends on when the events of the movie happened. If it's before gx then yes he did. But if it happened after then we don't know/probably didn't
“You want this Duel Disk? Well, you can’t have it!” -DSOD Kaiba
Also some sources say his set card in DSOD was Polymerization meaning it was a bluff
We don't know
Ishmael Vilmenay You can try and keep track of his cards throughout the duel. It’s not like the cards just cone out of nowhere
Imma watch the movie later on anyway but last time i watch it dat wasn't it i think dat was in his hands
@@ishmaelvilmenay3340 polymerization is in his hand when he plays chaos max dragon and he never used it once in that duel so it's safe to say his last play was a bluff.
I always interpreted it as Kaiba was bluffing and was going to lose. The reason he smiled was something of a realization that he didn't need the Pharaoh because Yugi really was a fantastic duelist who bested both of them, and would be the one Kaiba can challenge and heal/mourn with in their own way.
Then he got the cube and was like "Well, might as well settle the score anyways."
Cause he comes back and at least works with Yugi as there was official art showing them in his space station together, creating Yugi's new game together. With Kaiba even looking happy.
Throws a little shade
Kaiba: YOU ARE WORTHLESS
Seto god damn that ain’t shade it’s fucking nightfall

How is that a LITTLE shade?

It makes one think how and why he takes his dueling so darn seriously
He seriously needs to chill 😂
Kaiba Corp, Kaiba Land, Duel Academy, Battle city, KCPG, Ener D research, Solid Vision, Duel Disks...besides his Duellist skills, Kaiba is by far (one of) the most iconic character of the franchise.
No homo but Dsod Kaiba is lowkey good looking
Emperor DarK nah,I said no homo
No homo doesn’t count, you gay. XD He’s hot though
I used to have a crush on him in middle school
I would doodle his KC logo on my notes 😅cause I thought it looked cool when everyone else was drawing those S designs
Only uneducated, ignorant fools would deny the effectiveness of the "no homo" statement.
Shame on you.
He was hot damn right
It wasnt a time machine. He went to the Egyptian afterlife. That's why Atem smiled, he was welcoming a healthy friendly duel. Gotta remember in Atem's time duel monsters was a real battle. Having some random dude show up in the past I'm sure they would all get ready to kill seto but instead Atem smiled because he knew who seto was. How would Atem know him if seto traveled time? Therefore it wasnt the past it was just their version of an afterlife.
i think he was smiling during his duel with yugi in DSOD cause know he knows he was going to lose and that yugi isnt just a shell for yami and he actually is a very skillful duelist he can respect.
I don't see Kaiba admitting Yugi is better than Pharaoh AND STILL AT THE VERY END STILL PROCEEDS TO GO TO THE AFTERLIFE TO FACE THE PHARAOH... MEN COME ON THAT'S JUST PURE LOGIC!!
@@Lonely_Ronin never said he was better than atem but kaiba respcts him more and now sees him as a skilled duelist lol looks like somebody cant read at all.
That makes absolutely no sense were talking about Seto kaiba not yugi muto
I dunno, I got the impression the duel was interrupted solely so Yugi wouldn't lose. I have full confidence in the fact that Kaiba was going to win that duel had Aigami not shown up. The slow drop in Kaiba's life points, the smirk, and the fact that he still had a face down card all support this.

Red Eyes all day
@@Khan-_-Art1st Filthy Red Eyes Will Never Beat *_BLUE EYES WHITE DRAGON_*
I think the only thing that stopped me from loving Kaiba from the start was his Episode 1 behavior and lack of sympathetic characteristics. Mokuba goes through his Duelist Kingdom experience, he and Kaiba are shown to legitimately care for each other, and the Battle City Finals showing that he's simply frustrated and has an actual deep connection to Blue Eyes all combined to make Kaiba my absolute favorite character in the series, with a Blue Eyes deck becoming my dream deck, not that I've actually played a single bit of Yugioh. When I saw BEUD, I was like "Whoa." When Kaiba became a character that I could love without the "but he's a bad guy" taboo, BEUD immediately became my most hyped card. The summoning soundtrack only helps.
Sir_Leaveowits_Da_1st ofc you choose the white dragon over the black smh
You slepted on Saggi the Dark Clown

Saggi+Crush Card Virus is a vicious combo

I see no one told you what pot of greed does. That's ok they never talked about it in the show. It allows you to draw 2 cards.
@@tidalfront2360 that's what is do yugi
Man it is so good seeing this series again and starting of with the king of roasting other dualist Seto Kaiba is good he has some of the best roast in dual links in both his dual monster world as well as the new dark side of dimensions world which I thought that after 5ds we would have gotten zexal cause of the order of each series but this is better
Seto used the Millennium Cube and SCIENCE to travel to the afterlife, not the past. That's why he was the only person in Egypt being erased and why Atem was smiling, since Atem sealed his soul in a puzzle and had his name erased from history after banishing Zorc and all Duel Spirits/Monsters in people and coexisting with people for 3000 years up til Pegasus happened.
I'm kinda disappointed he did not know that despite all the research he did for this video.

Ah another one of my buster blader children
But as an OG buster blader duelist I gotta say my luck goes to shit as soon as I face blue eyes
My dang luck always fails when I need it most I just need one ritual art to rs my most powerful card
Possibly the most intresting character in Yugioh DM and the character with the most character development in the series. The Vegeta of Yugioh.
the most badass character in the whole franchise
So basically seto is one of the smartest business man alive.
Despite what Jack would have you believe Jack is only a dueling star
Kaiba was king
With lots of money at a very young age
@Hans Hanzo nah, pegasus made the game but it didn't factor in to everything ppl did, then kaiba came in and gave it all the hologram tech and sponsored a shit load of events then built a goddamn academy, and that's just what we know of
Kaibe was still young at the end of gx and we didn't really get much info on what he was doing
I didn't always like Kaiba, but when i grew up i realized how interesting and awesome he really is!
By the way, this video was amazing and hilarious 😂
Kaiba is such a Yugioh meme
January 27 2003?
"Playing mainly ferocious looking monstere with high attack"
*shows one eyed ogre with 1200 attack*
I know that very little thought had been put into how Duel Monsters would work if it was a real game at that point but I never understood why Kaiba didn't get a ton of more powerful cards like Barrel Dragon and Summoned Skull to fill out the deck. While cards like that seemed to be ridiculously rare, he seemed like he would be able to afford them.
He used Saggi the Dark Clown in The Dark Side of Dimension.
I was like: “Ok Kaiba, if you really wanted to beat Pharaoh so badly, at least get that weak ass monster out of your deck!”
me playing duel links:
kaiba: YOU'RE THIRD RATE DEULIST WITH FOURTH RATE DECK

@@exequielbreton4393 That was not canon. In the manga Kaiba never witnessed the ceremonial duel.
@@SetoKaiba_legend huh. The man of the hour is here.
From what I've heard, Kaiba's face down card was actually Polymerization, which can be seen in his hand now and again during the Duel, and he never actually used, so he Set it.
It's possible that he could have been grinning as he finally realized Yugi had grown as a Duelist and became worthy of challenging him.
I don't believe this theory... This looks more like something Joey would do relying on bluff and luck... It does not fit Kaiba's play style I think
@@Lonely_Ronin That's fair. But still, Kaiba did actually have Poly., but it has been a little while since I've watched the Duel so I can't remember what his hand looked like during the end.
ah, Seto and Yami, still a better love story than twilight haha
Not exactly a high bar to pass ngl
lol. true
Kaiba is the best trash talker he told dark magaican girl on the dragons arc “ill do
Anything to shut u up”
And the sarcasm is hilarious LOL, I love that line but my favorite line from the waking the dragons arc is when he's talking to Yami and Yami tells him to accept his destiny and help them: "If I had a dime for every time you used the word destiny, I'd be even richer." 😂😂😂 I love that line LOL.

@@bryanmerel kaiba never showed any interest in girls or boys
Hey man, love you’re content, always entertaining to me. It’d be cool if you can make a video over the best main YGO rival. Anyway, just wanted to bring up a few stuff:
1) Seto didn’t use a time machine, he dimension transported to the after life(probably not mentioned in the YGO dub).
2) Its true that Mokuba and Seto where placed in an orphanage. But there was more to the story. After Seto’s parents death, his relatives(probably aunts or uncles) stripped Mokuba and Seto of their inheritance and abandoned them in an orphanage. To say they where homeless after the parents death and placed in an orphanage was probably the story in the dub. Partially true but lighter than the actual story.
3) not sure I understood what you meant about card of Demise not being seen outside of POL. but to clarify Card of Demise was used by Seto in episode 195 against Zigfried.
Kaiba is the most bad ass character!
Ooooooooh yes, I’ve been excited to see this episode remade. Nice work! I liked that you managed to work in his theme from the anime right at the start too
You're a third rate duelist
With a fourth rate deck
Damn
Backhanded compliment, he's essentially telling you that you're elevating your inferior cards to your own mediocre level.
In the manga, too, Kaiba did ripped the fourth Blue Eyes White Dragon because the monster refused to obey him. This, therefore, made the common Yugioh rule of only 3 copies of the same card.
The original rival of Yugioh. Gotta love his catchphrases.
*Koiba and vegeta were the shit for me in my childhood.... Just the best character in their respective shows*

@@justinhillenburg9286 *Shut up mokuba*
"Wheeler, your gonna end up in jail in five years with bill a coming out your ass. Because you have no actual life skills."
You mean vegeta
@@justinhillenburg9286 Yeah, you're right. His name is Seto Kaiba.
Regarding the Dark Side of Dimensions DNF of kaiba vs Yugi. Yugi won for 2 reasons
1) kaiba life points were going down in the damage calculation, not many cards can be activated if any, during damage calculation and since kaibas life points were 2500 and Dark Magician Atk was 2500 his poimts became 0 and kaiba lost.
2)when Seto is ritual summoning blue eyes chaos MAX dragon u can see Polymerisation in his hand and myslef and others have gone through the duel and the only card he could have set was poly (and kaiba is used to setting poly as he did in the battle city semi finals). So Yugi accurately called Kaiba bluff
Which is probably the reason why kaiba was smiling as it was in acknowledgement that Yugi is the true King of Games a worthy opponent and now kaiba has a new rival to defeat (who you know is not in the afterlife).
Congrats Yugi!
Then still thought f*** it, I want to beat the pharoah
You never know what they could have come up with to save him we never saw that face down it could have been something we had never seen before
@@anetery1226
fact is they didnt come up with anything and there is no card in the entire game that could have saved him in that situation.
and if there was it would break the game.
@@uteriel282 man l am just saying also is that really new to this games anime
U guys be just fanboys saying non-sense... We all know anime face down cards have broken effects and yet you want me to believe Kaiba just threw a polymerisation as a face down??? Are you guys really that dense??
Kaiba: best character ever made
I feel like Kaiba was smiling because Yugi was about win and in Kaiba's eyes he finally became an opponent on equal footing with the pharaoh but he's so focused on Atem is because he was the one who truly beat him and scorned his pride.
Kaiba didn't go back in time he went to the after life because that's where the atem that knows him is
He is my favorite character.
Same
I like the implication that all of the blue eyes support cards kaiba uses were made specifically for him because he's the only one that had blue eyes white dragon in the anime
To clear something about what kaiba did at the end of DSOD, kaiba did actually travel back in time but the reason it may not be as clear is because he used aigami cube therefore something related to dimensions manipulation which definitely confused a lot of people
so the reason the cube permitted him to time travel is because this time travel follows the modern and new theory of time traveling that has previously been shown in Dragon ball z in android/cell saga and the marvel movie End game (there are way too many others but those were the 2 on my mind)
What this theory states that when you travel back in time you are not actually returning to your own actual past instead you are entering a PARALLEL universe also said alternate DIMENTION. Meaning the actions you take are creating a new dimention rather than changing your own world meaning your actions do not affect your world but creates a new one referred to as a branch in the time. That is why dimentions are connected to that it is because travelling in time is considered a form of traveling through dimentions which is further supported or more specifically hinted with what Aigami did to joey were it is as if he sent him to his past
Seto is a perfect example of how to write a great rival that you will hate at the start but also grow to love. He's easily my favorite character.
Gotta thank Eric Stuart for the hilarious sarcasm he added to Kaiba, I can't stand Kaiba but I love the sarcasm. Regarding voicing his role as Kaiba, Eric has said that he feels it's Kaiba's sense of honor that really ground him from not being completely hated. He also said he liked the challenge of walking the fine line between being a rival and not a villain, which I think he did very well. I think you should have gone a little more into his past self as Priest Seto. P.S.: A small bit of information for fans who might not know(since not all fans do), but Eric Stuart is also a singer/songwriter. He has his own band and currently has 9 albums out. Good character profile, glad you finally finished off the Kaiba family 😄
Actually it was meant that kazuki takahashi would have written a plot on the priest seto saga with blue eyes girl and all
But short after he fall sick
He got hospitalise and the direction board decided to shorten the arc
So that kazuki gets time to recover
And the rest was history
what i want to know is where tf did those abs come from in dark side of dimensions
He underwent training to be able to use his space elevator.
money
Kaiba is one of my favorite duelists.
Finally I've been waiting for this profile.... One of my favourite characters in Yugioh.... And I like how you started the video with Kaiba's soundtrack...I really hope they could make a Seto Kaiba\Duke Devlin Solo series...
I think the most prominent reference to Seth is that the he also represents "rebellion", as shown in Seto's character where he's always a man of action. he won't allow fate or authority to push him around.
rebellion also directly oppose authority, which Atem (and Horus) represent
It's a good thing he is Seto freaking Kaiba or that might have actually hurt
My fav character.. More iconic than any main charaters past yugi imo
Kaiba's facedown in DoD during his duel with Yugi was Polymerization. It was shown in his hand during the duel but he never played it and it was the only card that could have been left by the time Yugi defeats him. actually you can see it right at the end of this video when your talking about what cards Kaiba started using in DoD.
You know that he uses blue eyes solid dragon and dragon spirit of white according to duel links right
Duel Links also gives voice lines for support cards that the charater never used.
For example, Jaden/Yubel has a line for Neos Fusion, a card made in 2016 or 2017.
Kaiba never used Spirit of White or Solid Dragon.

Kaiba didn't invent time machine, he went into the afterlife to fight Atem, which is even more impressive
He could have cured cancer and solved world hunger with his genius. But instead, he will invent dimension travel to play games with his dead rival. 😒
That scene with kaiba smiling could also be him admiting defeat
Kaiba been creating a machine to travel to the after life cause he could not accept his defeat but yet he would accept losing to Yugi... Fascinating reflection you got right there 👍🏽
@@Lonely_Ronin
Atem and Yugi aren't the same character bro. He's admitting that Yugi is a worthy opponent of respect. But Kaiba needs a rematch with the Pharaoh to move on with his life. That's not contradictory at all.
90000 puppies just died
Makes sense. And acknowledging that someone is in fact better than him would be a huge point in character development for Kaiba. His attitude was a bit better in the film than the series, he seemed genuine when he told Yugi "take care". The boy just needed closure and he traveled to the afterlife to get it xD
He seems to be firems with yugi
In the manga, he actually started off as a villain and tried to kill Yugi and his friends after losing a card game. The manga is basically the card game version of Saw. That said, he is one of my favorite Yugioh characters.
Yeah the manga gets dark at times. I can’t remember what it was called but years ago there were a few episodes before the series started (basically when Yugi first gets the puzzle in pieces and before he’s friends with Joey and Tristian) where they play shadow realm games and loser loses his soul
Sounds like Seto...
Seto Kaiba is a legendary character. Definitely on par with the best characters ever made.
The Supreme Kai(ba) of the Yu-Gi-Oh universe. GOAT'ed for sure!
I really really really wish they make a series where its solely based off Atem's past life, life with Yugi and co, then After life. So we get Atem's entire life and not just snipits of it even though the final season had a bit of his childhood
Joey is the only person in the series with the bragging rights of saying he used Kaiba’s own blue eyes against him
Atem did that in the manga.
Kaiba biggest moment ever was in darkside the of dimension when pull a bs move and summon obelisk
Only reason I watch it
Your profile videos on characters are really good and very complete. I love them! Thank you for doing them :)
As a child this man single handily convinced me that the Yu-Gi-Oh anime was in fact not lame
Fun fact: the Koreans loved this Yugioh character so much a Kpop group even made a song about him
ArvinRoido Atienza
Really?! 😀 What is it called? I need a Seto Kaiba Korean song in my life!
Nani!! Name pls
@@KyoKatTheCookie23 Honestly, I've just heard it being played by my sister. I don't know the song name but I always misheard the lyrics as "Se-Seto Kaiba!"
The card was still face down when Kaiba took the hit. I think that grin was Kaiba realizing he lost, but for the first time since he last dueled Atem, he had the sensation of dueling him.
2:12 *"You.Are.Worthless! And you shouldn't have been in my tournament in the first place! Now then, go ahead and make your move. Cause' you've wasted enough of my time already!"* 2:41

I would love to see Kaiba use the Blue Eyes Shining Dragon again. Love that card.
Kaiba and Vegeta so similar only Kaiba doesn’t have a Bulma in his life. But both rich but arrogant both stubborn. I love it.
Seto Kaiba is the best character in all of Yu-Gi-Oh!
Pegasus and Alexis are better because of Pegasus' fun look and personality and Alexis' hot looking monsters and friends
Kite is better
I declare this invalid pretty OP.
Eric Stuart is the one true Seto Kaiba. Eric makes Seto who he is with that amazing prideful, strong and sexy voice.
I agree. =)
Problems? Dont forget to throw money at it!
"What's a.....problem? I have money so I have no idea what that is"
"Screw the rules, I have money!"
You forgot about Seto Kaiba's rediculously broken virus cannon, whose effect is send all spell cards in your opponents hand and deck to the graveyard, which he combo'd with his other virus to throw away 80% of his opponents deck.
that was no time machine, more like travel to the afterlife machine
Oh man, it would be great if you revisited this series. The early videos are great but I would love to see a more up-to-date in-depth series with you present TH-cam experience.
Kaiba is on the anime rivals Mt Rushmore along with Vegeta
Can we all agree that seto kaiba is one of the best rivals of all time
Kaiba is the "Vegeta" of Yu-Gi-Oh.
Joshua Lowe basically
Some what. Like Vegeta, Kaiba has his moments
Obviously this analysis came out 3 years ago, however I just realized that Blue Eyes White Dragon is a Light type monster, while Dark Magician is obviously a Dark type monster. However, in the early original yugioh series, most people, myself included were trying to consider if Kaiba was a “Dark” antagonist, while the Pharaoh and Yugi are seen as the “Light” protagonists. It’s such an interesting dynamic to think about
I'm surprised this hasn't already been done tbh.
It was originally the 2nd or 3rd profile made, but due to some copyright issues it had to be deleted.
