* HoYay:
** Spoofing with Tristan and Duke. Episode 38:
--->'''Duke''': I know how she feels. Guys are proposing to me all the time.
--->'''Tristan''': Duke, I already told you I was joking!
*** Episode 40:
---->'''Tristan''': Get your hand off my butt!
---->'''Duke''': Sorry. It does that.
**** Same episode:
---->'''Tristan''': Be quiet you fool! [[ItMakesSenseInContext Do you ]]''[[ItMakesSenseInContext want ]]''[[ItMakesSenseInContext the aliens to probe your anus?]]
---->'''Duke''': [[{{Fetish}} ...Maybe.]]
** Let's face it - any scene featuring Marik and Bakura will result in large amounts of this trope. In the recap episode, their teaming up was described with Florence claiming they should be partners. Marik responded “You mean like partners in crime?” and Florence replied somewhat sarcastically. In episode 40, Florence tells Marik it's a good thing he's [[BrainlessBeauty pretty]], because [[BelligerentSexualTension otherwise he would have suffocated him]]. In the Leather Pants video, there is a shot of them standing very close to the line “We're really JustFriends!” Right before they die at the hands of Melvin, they sing [[FinalLoveDuet Stand By Me]] in a duet, and in a deleted scene, got a [[DyingDeclarationOfLove Dying Confession of Hate]] so foe yay-riffic it's currently the page quote for FoeYay/Anime. Incredibly? Their HoYay only gets ''more blatant'' in ''MarikPlaysBloodlines'':
--->'''Prostitute''': Okay, honey. Let's see what you've got.
--->'''Marik''': Hey, Bakura, isn't that what you said to me the first time we met? [[ComicallyMissingThePoint And then I showed you my Millenium Item.]]
--->'''Bakura''': Yes, I was very disappointed.
*** Also, the following:
---> '''Melvin''': If you're done fighting with your girlfriend, we have a card game to finish!
---> '''Florence''': He's not my girlfriend!
---> '''Marik''': [[IResembleThatRemark You tell him, honey!]]
*** And now in ''MarikPlaysBloodlines'' episode 6, [[spoiler:Marik has admitted that he's gay and keeps a whole folder filled with Thiefshipping pictures on his computer. Amazingly, he ''still'' denies that any of this is true, at first claiming that Bakura couldn't hear him, and then blaming the ghost in the game.]] It's becoming increasingly obvious that the only thing stopping Marik and Florence from being full-on YaoiGuys is Marik's inexplicable insistence that he is not gay.
** The episode "What would Yugi do?" has so much Yami/Yugi HoYay. From Yami's side at least.
----> "You should buy the whipped cream for later ... you know ... for snacks."
** "Apparently we're supposed to...do you."
** Episode 47:
--->'''Yugi''': Aw, that's cute! Duke and Tristan got their own little hole!
** Episode 48:
--->'''Duke''': We've gotta get outa here, dude! I kinda have this disease where if I don't have half-naked girls applied to my body at regular intervals... I die.
--->'''Tristan''': Want me to take my top off?
--->'''Duke''': I said half-naked ''girls''!
--->'''Tristan''': How do you know it won't work if you don't try it?
--->'''Duke''': Dude. Trust me. I know.
** Episode 50
--->'''Yugi''': I wonder what Tristan would do
--->GilliganCut
--->'''Tristan''': I'm going to touch your boobs!
--->'''Duke''': ...Why?
** In "The Other Abridged Movie," Kaiba has security cameras set up all through out Japan and spends a lot of time spying on Yugi, including watching Yugi taking a shower everyday so that he can always be "one step ahead of him." There is also Joey's whole "surprise buttsecks" thing which he does to a random henchman and Yugi. Some example dialogue:
--->'''Kaiba''':When I'm through with you, you'll have to take a shower to wash away the smell of defeat. And I won't be watching you do it.
--->'''Yami''': Why would you be watching me?
--->'''Kaiba''': I don't know, I just wanted to make sure you knew I wouldn't be.
--->'''Yami''': But I never thought-
--->'''Kaiba''': Good because I won't!
--->'''Yami''': Why would I think that you were watching m-
--->'''Kaiba''': I dunno.
** Just a throwaway line, but in episode 21, as they're going into the virtual world:
--->'''Joey''': Bye, darling!
--->'''Tristan''': Ixnay on the arlingday...
** The WHOLE Joey-is-a-furry-Kaiba-dream-sex thing.
** In Marik's Evil Council 4, Melvin declares that now that Yugi is dead, Bakura will be his boyfriend and they will "go out ten times". Shortly afterwards, Zorc tells Bakura that [[ShowWithinAShow Zorc And Pals]] is getting a second season, and DanGreen tells him that "Florence" has just been voted the manliest name ever. Bakura says that this is the happiest day of his life. [[spoiler: Too bad that was AllJustADream.]]
** In the movie Pegasus flirts a lot with Kaiba.
** A lot in ''Bonds Beyond Time Abridged''. Firstly there's Yuusei telling Jack ''TopGun'' isn't gay because it's totally straight for two guys to call each other cute nicknames, play volleyball, and ride their phallic vehicles at extremely high speeds. Jack then says it's time to ride their motorcycles and play some half-naked volleyball.
--->'''Yuusei''': [[ShoutOut You can be my wingman anytime, Jack.]]
--->'''Jack''': No, Yuusei. You can be ''mine''.
*** Later, Yuusei reads a scene from a Jack/Yuusei {{Fanfic}}.
--->'''Yuusei''': And then Jack turned to Yuusei and said "come over here and kick my engines into overdrive".
*** In the last part, Yuusei and Yami get their Ho Yay on, with the latter continually adding '[[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday no homo]]' and Yami replying ambivalently. Until...
--->'''Yusei''': [[RunningGag You can be my wingman anytime, Yugi.]]
--->'''Yugi''': No, Yusei. You can be ''mine''.
--->*sexy music plays; they eyesex*
--->'''Yuusei''': No homo, right?
--->'''Yami''': [[SubvertedTrope ALL OF THE HOMO!]]
* HurricaneOfEuphemisms: Grandpa uses one of these in the season zero episode.

In the aftermath of 4Kids being sued and the possibility of losing their license to ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' due to violation of their contract with Tokyo TV, this is ''absolutely hysterical''.
