On this dvd you will see kaiba fighting ishizu.

A battle with destiny.
Can kaiba take off ishizou even that she can predict the future?
You will also find the true story of marik and the reason why he wanted te revenge the pharaoh.
The best duel of this dvd is evil marik vs evil bakura and marik.
Bakura takes the egyptian god card from evil marik, but the question is if bakura can control the true power of the winged dragon of ra and what about if ra has got more than one special abilities.
You will find out if you buy this dvd.

Once again, I'm just writing pointless reviews.
However, in the peak of the Yu-Gi-Oh saga, these were the best.
I never really watched these in interest of the duels, however, the backstories and events happening elsewhere, was what made these stories so great.
Merik is by far the best character of the entire lot, and his flashback sequence was heartwrenching. He was soooooo cute!! I feel really bad for him, yet I still love him all the more.He is definitely the best villain ever!!!!
In tribute, I have named and based a character after him in the book I've been writing for several years now.

I am a HUGE fan of Yu-Gi-Oh, as you see. I don't like the dub, but...

My two favorite characters of the show are on the cover, so this is the only dubbed DVD I bought. As most people complain, the dub likes to mix and change things, as well as added melodrama. I prefer to watch it on mute, but even with the subs, it's obvious how hacked it is.

The final episode of this set is the best looking onewith all the cast drawn with nice heads, accurate facial expressions, and overall animation. The first, looking the worst, has rather blocky faces and unnatural movement(though Obelisk's summoning was pretty). The animation consistency is tragic(which is one point for the manga).

Still, this was a duel between the crazy characters, thus making it more entertaining than most of the duels. This is somewhat of a turning point in the Battle City Saga, as there is a bit of turmoil on the villain's side. I wouldn't watch YGO if it weren't for Marik(both of them) and Bakura(and you wouldn't understand unless you were a YGO junkie like me). And in another one of the "Marik's Past" episodes, you can't deny how adorable little Marik is.

I could stand the inconsistent animation, and maybe some of the violent parts edited(although I wish it wouldn't be so choppy), but the biggest downer is Marik's story being changed for no good reason. His likeability was lower in the dub, and so dub viewers might not have as much sympathy for him as one who's watched the original.

Still can't rate it lower than a B.
(shame about the shirt part.)
