1!Season 1
2* Yami giving Mokuba a ''much-needed'' reality check about [[{{Jerkass}} Kaiba]]:
3-->'''Mokuba:''' Everyone says he's a bad person, but it's not true!
4-->'''Yami:''' He stole my grandfather's favorite card, put him in the hospital and then left you at the mercy of his enemies! Face it kid, your brother's a giant prick!
5* In episode 10, even though it's an earlier episode and BreakingTheFourthWall as per usual, we get a pretty awesome line from Yami:
6--> '''Panik:''' Why aren't you dead?!
7--> '''Yami:''' As I explained earlier, I'm the main character! [[PreMortemOneLiner You, however, can just go right ahead and die!]] '''''MIND CRUSH!'''''
8
9!Season 2
10* In Episode 29: Epic Mokuba Manoeuvre! Set to [[Music/{{Nightwish|Band}} "Ghost Love Score"]]!
11* In Episode 30, Yami gives Arkana an awesome ShutUpHannibal which is even better than the original line from the show.
12--> '''Arkana:''' You know, Yugi, there's an old saying among high-rollers and card sharks: "Always trust your opponents, but only after you've cut their decks."\
13'''Yami (original):''' Here's another saying: "Never trust a masked man."\
14'''Yami (abridged):''' Yeah, well here's another saying: "Go [BLEEP] yourself, Arkana."
15* In Episode 31, while admittedly it happened off-camera (if at all), Serenity convincing the kid that thought he was Ash that he had cancer was pretty awesome, as it got him to finally shut up.
16* The ending also applies:
17-->'''Joey''': Let that be a lesson to you--minor characters from season 1 stand no chance in this tournament. That's why I'm gonna take you out, one at a time! Because I'm Joey Wheeler: Card Game Warrior!\
18'''Weevil''': [[WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead Would you like to see my bunghole?]]\
19'''Joey''': Okay, Tristan, ''now'' you can [[BrickJoke break his neck]].\
20'''Weevil''': ''(head twisting sharply to the right)'' AGH!\
21''(Weevil falls over. Cut over to Tristan, standing several yards off.)''\
22'''Tristan''': ''[[UnusuallyUninterestingSight (casually)]]'' Yeah, I can break necks with my mind.
23* Episode 32 ending with Marik getting on his motorcycle and tear-assing around Domino City, set to "[[Music/{{Boston}} More than a Feeling]]".
24* And in episode 36:
25-->'''Tristan''': "[[Film/PulpFiction Say "what" again! Say "what" again! I dare you! I double dare you, mother(Beep)er! Say "what" one more goddamn time!]]"
26** And right before the fight that led to that scene we got:
27-->'''Tristan''': [[PreAssKickingOneLiner The name's Tristan Taylor, and for the next 5 minutes, you guys are officially my bitches.]]
28** In many ways, the climax comes surprisingly close to being played straight. All things considered, it actually kind of ''works''.
29* [[Film/TheDarkKnight "Why so British?"]]
30* When Mokuba manages to free himself from Marik, much to Kaiba's surprise, prompting him to say "For the first time in my life, I can honestly say that I'm proud you're my brother".
31--> '''Mokuba''': "k thx."
32* Mokuba has enough of [[PhraseCatcher being told to shut up]]:
33-->'''Grandpa Moto''': Shut up, Mokuba--\
34'''Mokuba''': NO, ''YOU'' SHUT UP!\
35''(Grandpa Moto and Téa look at him in utter shock)''
36* With his life on the line, Yugi manages to give Joey the strongest, most heartfelt friendship speech he can muster. Doubly awesome when you remember how annoying it is when Téa does it.
37* This exchange from Episode 40 is so cold it becomes awesome.
38-->'''Yami:''' "Hey, Bakura! Any last words before Slifer toasts your ass?"
39-->'''Bakura:''' "I want my mommy…"
40-->'''Yami:''' "That'll work."
41* In Episode 43:
42--> '''Joey''': "Melvin, you son of a bitch. You stay away from Mai, or I'll--"
43--> '''Melvin''': * pulls a lightsaber out of his Millenium Rod* "You really have no clue what you're *** ing with here, do you?"
44--> '''Joey''': "Uh… yeah, I'll just be getting out of the way now."
45--> '''Melvin''': "That's what I thought."
46** And one for Mai that she didn't get in the original anime; making Melvin forget about [[MoralityPet Mr. Tweetums]].
47* Ishizu Ishtar shuts Kaiba up mid-rant about how awesome he is to turn his entire strategy on its head. Kaiba, generally the calmest character, flips out and drops a huge F-bomb extended over several scenes.
48** Note that we're talking about the same character who maybe 30 seconds earlier told Ishizu to, and I quote, "Put up your f*cking dukes, bitch! 'Cause you're going down, Kaiba Corp-style!"
49*** The only ''uncensored'' f-bomb in the series, at that. Not counting the "I'm on a Blimp" video.
50* It looks like the rules [[GlassesPull * sunglasses on* ]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qAqAhKEk5M just got screwed.]]
51** [[Music/TheWho YEE]][[MemeticMutation AAAA]][[Series/CSIMiami AAAHHH!]]
52** There's also the moment in Episode 44.
53--> '''Ishizu''': What? This is what destiny told me you would do!
54--> '''Kaiba''': [[ScrewDestiny F*ck destiny! I'M SETO KAIBA! I MAKE MY OWN FATE!]]
55* Episode 45 ends on Florence and Marik showing that they've teamed up to take down Melvin, with the show's cancellation on the line. Both unveil lightsabers and prepare to duke it out on the blimp.
56* Episode 46 ends with Marik and Florence going out while singing a "Stand by Me" duet. Could probably be a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}, too.
57
58!Season 3
59* Joey's speech from Episode 50, after being [[KangarooCourt accused]] by Johnson of Team 4Kids of copyright infringement:
60--> '''Joey''': Yeah, I have a closing statement. Maybe we have committed copyright infringement. But you gotta know we've done everything in our power to support the Yu-Gi-Oh franchise! And if it weren't for us, I don't think the show would be nearly as strong as it is right now!
61--> '''Johnson''': And where is your evidence of such?
62--> '''Joey''': Look around, Johnson! There are more Yu-Gi-Oh fans now than ever before! And the more you try to stifle our creativity, the more we'll try to express our love for a show that's about more than children's card games! It's about fighting for what you believe in, and I believe in this show and its fans now more than ever! Because they believe in me!
63--> '''Yugi''': This is so meta.
64--> '''Joey''': Flame Swordsman! Use the strength given to me by the Yu-Gi-Oh fanbase to wipe out his life points!
65* -* *Cue CurbStompBattle*
66--> '''Flame Swordsman''': My name... is... ''FRANK!! [commences to pwn Johnson's Deck Master]''
67* Episode 51:
68** Ironman playing when Mecha Nezbit first appears.
69** Tristan's pre-death speech (doubles as a Crowning Moment of Funny at points)
70---> '''Tristan''': It's okay Serenity, I lived my life as a side character, fit only for spouting mindless quips and catchphrases. But now, I get to die the way I always wanted, falling, screaming like a girl into a pit of boiling hot lava, flesh being seared from my bones. If I do survive, I'd probably be unrecognizable. But if I do die, '''It'll be as a main character.'''
71--->'''Serenity''': I love you!
72--->'''Tristan''': [[Franchise/StarWars I know.]]
73* Episode 52: Kaiba's Like a Boss song. Also doubles as funny.
74** Actually, just about the entire episode could qualify, probably because Kaiba is just CrazyIsCool to begin with.
75--->'''Yugi:''' (after Mokuba is kidnapped on a motorcycle) Don't worry, Kaiba. We'll get your brother back. All we have to do is stick together--
76--->'''Kaiba:''' EAT IT, NERDS! (flies past on a motorcycle)
77--->'''Yugi:''' [[LampshadeHanging Okay, since when did this show become AMAZING?!]]
78** Kaiba crashes the motorcycle into a truck blocking the road. Cue massive explosion, followed by Kaiba walking away completely unscathed, his clothing not even singed.
79--->'''Kaiba:''' It's a good thing I'm '''''Seto Kaiba''''', or that might've actually hurt me.
80** Kaiba finds out that his opponent can instantly destroy internet memes, which is bad news for Kaiba since his deck's mostly just that. What does he do? ''[[HoistByHisOwnPetard Turn his opponent into an internet meme.]]''
81* Episode 53: By this point, its almost time for the big 5's final duel, but due to a little bit of editing, Téa's currently possessed by the Penguin-obsessed member of The Big 5. However, in the pre-opening part of the episode, after witnessing the guy fail at being Téa, the part of Marik that possessed Téa speaks up and, after a quick conversation, literally kicks the guy out. Let me say that again. Marik's spirit, without the rod, managed to kick out another spirit who had taken over a body he only possess occasionally.
82* Melvin tells Ishizu that he's sending everyone to the shadow realm, saving her for last. Why? [[BorrowedCatchphrase Because shut up.]] His cold delivery sells it.
83* Episode 57: Joey has Gearfried attack Kaiba's life points, putting him ahead of him to duel with Melvin. One of the few times he's gained a victory over the smug son of a bitch, and taunts him about it.
84-->'''Joey:''' Hey, Kaiba, how's the weather up there?\
85'''Kaiba:'''(spits on his cheek) It's raining.
86** Well, he got spat in the face for his troubles, but still…
87* The We Will Rock You parody in Episode 59. Plus Yami winning against Kaiba for the gajillionth time.
88* Kaiba gets one in episode 60: when confronted on his anger by Mokuba and the notion he considers the others friends, he calls Duke, Joey, and Tristan out [[BreakThemByTalking on their failings]] in spectacular fashion.
89** The best part? ''[[JerkassHasAPoint He's absolutely right]]''.
90** Goes into HypocriticalHumor when you remember Kaiba is a huge jerk, slightly sociopathic, and just far from a good person.
91* Three words: MARIK IS BACK!
92* Marik banishing Melvin:
93-->'''Melvin''': ENOUGH OF THIS! Marik! I command you to win this game and take the Pharaoh's power into your hands! [[WeCanRuleTogether Then we will rule the world together!]]
94-->'''Marik''': But you're just an eyeball now; how are you going to rule anything?
95-->'''Melvin''': I will… blink at things. Angrily. Until they submit!
96-->'''Marik''': No! I am through with people telling me what to do! From now on, the only person who tells me what to do, is me!
97-->'''Melvin''': But that's exactly who I am!
98-->'''Marik''': There's only room for one Marik Ishtar on this planet… (reaches for his Duel Disk)
99-->'''Melvin''': [[OhCrap Wait!]]
100-->'''Marik''': …and it's '''not''' the Marik Ishtar that's not me! (touches his deck)
101-->'''Melvin''': Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait… AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! (disappears)
102* [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome While it was offscreen]], Joey's defeating of Yugi to get his Red-Eyes back has to count for something. He even used [[JokeCharacter Swordsman of Landstar]] to win!
103** Not to mention the fact that [[AwesomeEgo Yami]] specifically [[JerkAss refused to go easy]] on [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass Joey]], and still lost.
104--->'''Yami:''' Yugi, he uses [[JokeCharacter Swordsman of Landstar]] '''unironically'''. [[ButtMonkey He]] [[TemptingFate deserves everything]] [[ThrowTheDogABone he gets]].
105
106!Season 4
107* Tomomato's performance as Gurimo, he makes him sound legitimately intimidating.
108* The Pharaoh using the combined attack points of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma the Magnet Warriors to [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu "totally waste"]] [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Bro]]'s "punk-ass Obelisk." Keep in mind that Obelisk [[PhysicalGod the]] [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Tormentor]] is an '' [[OlympusMons Egyptian God]] '' ''' and ''' has been [[TookALevelInBadass strengthened]] by the Seal of Orichalcos.
109-->'''Yami:''' That's some [[PurposefullyOverpowered OP]] bullsh*t right there!
110* Mai Valentine in episode 69 finally gets some characterisation, which reveals that she's got a quick wit and is annoyed with everyone ([[TakeThatUs possibly including LittleKuriboh]]) for obsessing over her boobs and [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten her one loss to Joey]].
111* Yugi and Yami riding off into the ending credits to [[Anime/CowboyBebop The Real Folk Blues.]]
112* Even though Raphael's motives are… not the best in the world… he did manage to catch Yami off guard by actually dueling him this time instead of standing around conversing with him, to the point that he managed to cause Yami to [[OhCrap legitimately panic]]. For someone [[CallBack who could only say "ZUG ZUG" for a while]], that's pretty impressive.
113** There's also him actually beating Yami, a feat that, so far, has only been shared by three others: Pegasus in his pre-Duelist Kingdom duel with Yami, Kaiba in his first rematch against him, and [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Joey after the Battle City finals]]. Bonus points for not resorting to stalling for time or reading his mind like Pegasus, or outright threatening to get himself killed like Kaiba (unless you count the Seal of Orichalcos, but then again it's basically a discount [[DeadlyGame Shadow Game]] anyway).
114* Creator/LittleKuriboh's performance as Yami in Episode 71 after he uses the Seal of Orichalcos shows that when he can be evil, he can legitimately make the people who forced him into that position [[GoneHorriblyRight rethink that choice]].
115-->'''Raphael:''' Now do you see how right I was about being evil?
116-->'''Yami:''' Yes, Raphael. I see exactly what you mean. And now that I know how evil I can be, I am going to destroy you and everything you hold dear and bathe in the afterglow of your demise. [[EvilLaugh HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!]]
117-->'''Raphael:''' [[OhCrap Well, well… good. I'm glad this worked out.]] [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Yay.]]
118-->{...}
119-->'''Yami:''' Look at you, being all defiant. It's cute. But once I've assembled all my monsters, I'll hurl them at you with my Catapult Turtle in a wave of deadly precision. And as you just finished telling me, a wave is all it takes to break you. It's time to [[OpeningShoutOut d-d-d-d-d]]-[[BaitAndSwitch die.]] Any final words?
120* In Episode 73, [=LittleKuriboh=] finally gets to do his take on Yami overkilling Weevil. Yes, he dubs the [[MemeticMutation memetically]] [[LargeHam hamtastic]] "DORO! MONSUTAA KAADO!" from the original anime wholesale. In the DAN GREEN Yami voice. ''And it is '''glorious'''.'' Oh, and for the cherry on top, [[CallBack Watapon]], [[BrickJoke Mushroom Man]] and ''freaking Jerry Beans Man'' of all monsters get a shot at Weevil during this; three monsters normally treated as complete and utter jokes both in- and out-of-series manage to lay the smackdown on Weevil by way of Berserker Soul.
121-->'''Yami''': You know, it ''really is'' a shame. If Yugi ''were'' here, [[PreemptiveDeclaration he might have been able to prevent me]].
122-->'''Weevil''': [[TemptingFate Prevent you from what?]]
123-->'''Yami''': '''[[PreAsskickingOneLiner From doing this.]]'''
124** As was the case in Episode 71 above, Creator/LittleKuriboh's performance as Yami is compelling in how it continues to play his rage and sadness at losing Yugi straight. It makes his rage at Weevil all the more chilling.
125--->'''Tea''': Pharaoh! Don't antagonize him!
126--->'''Yami''': (''jokingly'') Come on, Tea! It's '''Weevil'''! What's the worst he could -
127--->'''Weevil''': (''rips up card he'd led Yami to believe contained Yugi's soul'')
128--->'''Yami''': (''voice turns dark as eyes narrow'') [[TranquilFury Okay, yeah. That's the worst he could do.]]
129** It has to be said that after 72 episodes of just doing Beavis and Butthead, the Orichalcos retcon lets Creator/LittleKuriboh show off a truly amazing Jimmy Zoppi impression. Seriously, listen to Weevil's voice in the 4kids dub, then listen to it here.
130* Episode 76, Valon donning holographic armor parts right before going Anime/OnePunchMan on the giant Diamond Head Dragon qualifies. He even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this, saying "This card's special effect allows me to - oh, who am I kidding? It makes me look really bonkers cool while I kick the shit out of you!" For bonus badassery, he yells "[[YouAreAlreadyDead Anime Trope]] Achieved!"
131* Episode 77, Alister sends Kaiba in a flashback to confront him with the horror of war and make him have an epiphany about how humanity deserves to be killed. Not only does Kaiba manage to fight his way out of the flashback, the experience has the opposite effects on him, as he decides humanity deserves to be saved, if just because they made something as awesome as a dragon tank.
132* Joey and Valon's mech armor duel in episode 79, especially so with [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic "Fang of Critias"]] playing in the background.
133-->'''Valon''': Joey's just become the single most badass character in Yugioh! Nothing makes any sense anymore!
134-->'''Joey''': Gundam RAAAGE!!
135* When Raphael sacrifices all of his monsters to power Guardian Deathscythe, Yami epically calls him out on his hypocrisy after Raphael previously called Yami a monster for sacrificing his monsters during their first duel.
136-->'''Yami:''' This whole duel you've been adamant that you'll protect all your monsters. But I get rid of one of them and suddenly you do a 180 and decide to kill all of them yourself?\
137'''Raphael:''' Eh, plans change.\
138'''Yami:''' "[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe PLANS CHANGE]]"?! You spent all our previous duel telling me what an awful person I was because I was willing to sacrifice my monsters. How is this any different?!\
139'''Raphael:''' Look, not everything is so black and whi--\
140'''Yami:''' Because I didn't realize that Orichalcos was Latin for GIANT F*CKING HYPOCRITE.
141* Also from Episode 80: This episode features the word fuck but for the first time it isn't bleeped or stretched out for once!
142-->'''Kaiba:''' [[YouKnowWhatTheySay You know what the say:]] [[AwesomeEgo If at first you don't succeed,]] [[BadassBoast then you're probably not Seto]] ''[[PrecisionFStrike Fucking]]'' [[BadassBoast Kaiba.]]
143* In Episode 81, Dartz [[BreakingSpeech calls Yami out for his callous treatment of his friends]]. It works as Yami almost succumbs to the Seal of Orichalcos. Serious props should go to Takahata, who, even when doing Dartz's exaggerated accent, manages to deliver the entire speech with absolute sincerity. %%Could use some help in transcribing his accent in this long speech.
144-->'''Dartz''': Look at youwself! Look at everything you've dooone! You got a second chance at wahf! Oh! And how do you choose to spend it? Beating people in games y'already good at, and telling them how much they soock.\
145'''Yami''': It's not my fault if they refuse to git gud.\
146'''Dartz''': I know you're wight, but what ''is'' your fauwt is the way you take your fwends for gwanted or, oh, oh, do you even think of them as your fwewends?\
147'''Yami''': Of course I--\
148'''Dartz''': Oh, right, you can't even defend yoursewf! Not once have you taken the tahm to appweciate everything they've done for you, how patient dey' been. You're too busy calling Twistan stupaad, or Téa a slooot, or insulting the person whose body you now inhabit.\
149'''Yami''': Yugi...\
150'''Dartz''': Aww, that's the truth, though, Phawowoaoh. No Orichalcamalos magic, no bullshit powers. You're no hewo. You don't even deserve those fwends you surround yourself with. And you certainly don't deserve to keep wiving in Yugaay Muh-to's body. Just give it up. It's easier than fightin' the twuth.
151** Yami rejects this speech with his belief in ThePowerOfFriendship, and this moment is punctuated with the [=4Kids=] ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' theme.
152** In the lead-up to the duel, Yami briefly threatening Dartz without a duel after a season without Yugi and being absolutely done with the season
153-->'''Kaiba:''' Dartz, we challenge you to a childre—\
154'''Yami:''' Give me back my partner right now or I will rip him off that wall and beat you senseless with him.
155* Dartz gets a sick one-liner in the climax of the duel.
156-->'''Dartz''': But you know what sinks ships, Phawowoah? ''Canon''.
157* In turn, Yami gets a quite awesome BadassBoast at the end:
158-->'''Dartz''': Your monster's attack is ''[[BeyondTheImpossible higher than Infinitay?]]'' But [[HypocriticalHumor yah just sayd that attack points awen't evewythang]]!
159-->'''Yami''': That's because they're not! But you want to know what ''is'' everything? [[AwesomeEgo Me!]] ''I'' Am everything! I am the Pharaoh, the King of Games! [[PreMortemOneLiner And as for you, Dartz, well... You're nothing!]]
160* Slightly later:
161-->'''Yami''': In the name of the Pharaoh - [[TookALevelInKindness and those I care about]] - [[OlympusMons I summon a force beyond compare]]!
162** And Dartz - Great Leviathan in tow - [[HorrifyingTheHorror goes running]] ''[[HorrifyingTheHorror scared]]''.
163
164!Season 5
165* Episode 83: Yami beating the computer and in a way beating Raphael. With a terrible deck, no less.
166* Episode 84 kicks off the KC Grand Prix with a fantastic parody of [[Film/TheGreatestShowman "The Greatest Show"]] courtesy of Mokuba.
167
168!Movies
169* The trailer to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV2chOcZj_s&feature=feedu Abridged Tenth Anniversary Movie]], featuring an '''epic''' rap by Jaden set to "Stronger" by Kanye West.
170-->'''Jaden:''' You may bitch you're harder, but just wait for when I make my next move, '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV2chOcZj_s#t=18s when Winged Kuriboh's comin' atcha'!]]'''
171** It comes back in full as the credits to Bonds Beyond Time Abridged. It's '''absolutely glorious...!'''
172* [[Music/TenaciousD "We're Yugioh, we're Yugioh,]] [[ClimacticMusic we're Yugioh,]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UScz7Ne3cI#t=7m29s we're Yugioh..."]]
173** Also crosses a bit into SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming|Moments}}. Despite all their bickering, they're basically each acknowledging the other two as worthy of being Yu-Gi-Oh! protagonists (even Jaden).
174* Admit it, the parody opening in ''Series/DoctorWho'' style for the crossover abridge movie was freaking awesome!
175* In the movie, we have Yami Yugi doing what he does best to take down Paradox... screwing the rules.
176--> '''Yami:''' So stand back y'all, cause it's time for a ''real'' main character to take the field.
177--> '''Paradox:''' Oh pwease, you may be the King of Games in your timewine, but where I come from duel monsters has evolved far beyond your understanding. Compared to me you are just a learner.
178--> '''Yami:''' That may be the case in your timeline Paradox, but then we're not ''in'' your timeline, are we?
179--> '''Paradox:''' Um-
180--> '''Yami:''' And where I come from, duel monsters is still a [[ScrewTheRulesIHavePlot broken, exploitable mess of a game.]] And I'm about to exploit the ''hell'' out of it! ''(summons Dark Magician and Dark Magician With Big Boobies and destroys his Malefic Paradox Dragon)''
181--> ...
182--> '''Yami:''' I believe the appropriate phrase is, 'Boo-yah'.
183** Jaden's first turn was also pretty awesome. "[[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Freestyle time!]]"
184
185! Others
186* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jnCcejkpjg LEATHER PANTS~!]] Also SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic.
187* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HM9tyNkUAg Brooklyn rage!]]
188* [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JnczksTB4us&pp=ygUMV2l0aG91dCBZdWdp Without Yugi]].
189* YGOTAS Sails Away. Almost every character gets a part, and some are actually pretty good singers (Tristan). And it. Is. EPIC.
190* In the maybe-canon spinoff fanfic ''Marik & Bakura Go To Censored Town'', Ryou Bakura, of ALL PEOPLE, has one of these, when he [[ConscienceMakesYouGoBack convinces Florence to go back and apologise to Marik,]] making Florence realise that Marik [[OnlyFriend is the only real friend that he has.]] To do this, he actually takes control of one of his arms so that he can force Florence to look at a photo he had of Marik. Considering that he hadn't even been mentioned in the fic up to that point, and how he's been pretty much ignored for most of the Abridged series, it was pretty awesome.
191--> '''Ryou''': ''If I were in your place, I would rather die than lose any of my friends. Especially one that means as much to you as him.''
192* In the first episode of Season Zero, the way Yami convinces Yugi to finish the Millenium Puzzle, takes over his body (Which was also kind of creepy, but in a cool way), and then kills Ushio in, what one would say, ''the most epic moment in the show.''
193--> '''Yami:''' Garbage day!
194--> '''Ushio:''' Yugi! What are you doing?
195--> '''Yami:''' Ushio, baby! How's it hanging? Get it? 'Cause you're gonna die! Hehe...
196--> '''Ushio:''' ...
197--> '''Yami:''' Guess you had be there...
198--> '''Ushio:''' So... are you gonna give me the money now?
199--> '''Yami:''' Tell you what... ''(Slides down building as rock plays in the background, sliding playing cards along the way, stops right in front of Ushio, hanging by a rope)'' Hi.
200--> '''Ushio:''' ...Hi-
201--> '''Yami:''' Wanna Play a game?
202--> '''Ushio:''' ..What kinda game?
203--> '''Yami:''' Whoever dies first loses!
204--> '''Ushio:''' ...
205--> '''Yami:''' ''(Holds up a playing card)'' Look, the Queen of Spades!
206--> '''Ushio:''' ...What does that d-
207--> '''Yami:''' You lose! ''(Lets go of rope holding Ushio, dropping him into a lake of man-eating Worms)'' Hope ya like Man-eating Worms!
208--> '''Ushio:''' huh, I wonder what he meant by tha- ''(Notices Giant Worms)'' OH MY GOD THAT IS WHAT HE MEANT BY THAT!
209* During the absolutely hilarious "Creator/MichaelBay's [[TakeThat Yu-Gi-Oh]]", Yami appears, criticizes all of the ridiculousness around him, points out plot holes, and pretty much explains WHY Michael Bay movies don't work. Then asks why we can't have a loyal adaptation of a much-loved show from Hollywood. ''Awesome.''
210** Even more so when you realise that, due to the fact that they are fan-made parodies of much-loved shows, he's also [[TakeThat mocking pretty much every Abridged Series there is,]] [[TakeThatUs including his own.]]
211* Episode 3 of Season Zero. Yami and the russian vodka trick is just as awesome abridged.
212-->'''Yami:''' I couldn't help noticing you're not being mindf*cked right now. [[PreAssKickingOneLiner Thought I'd pop over and fix that.]]
213* There's a couple of zingers to be had in the "Counseling Evil" videos, which are meant to follow up and conclude the "Evil Council of Doom" videos.
214** After being ridiculed and told he sucks by the entire council, Marik goes and tries to get lessons on being a better villain by Bandit Keith. When the lessons are revealed to be a sham, it does end up teaching Marik one thing. He decides that it's better to just be himself. To not lie and pretend to be something he's not. He's even willing to go back and face the music with the Evil Council. Bandit Keith is even moved by this and wants to go and help him, even if it has nothing to do with him.
215** Bakura gets one in part two when he's [[AxeCrazy pushed a little too far]] by Dartz and his group. He explains what he did to Pegasus and warns not to test him. [[TemptingFate Dartz foolishly does so.]] Even though it's a quick cut, the title card indicates that he successfully summoned Destiny Board and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu banished Dartz to the Shadow Realm.]] Even if the moment is short-lived, it's definitely a notable proud moment he has.
216* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KbqRPuQetY&t=3s&ab_channel=LittleKuriboh Pharaoh's Throne]] is a dueling song between the Pharaoh and Thief King Bakura. At the end, the Pharaoh gives a BlaseBoast pointing out that Bakura can't possibly pose a threat to him, listing everyone the Pharaoh has on his side. Then when Bakura continues to taunt him, the Pharaoh throws Exodia at him and his army.
217--> '''Pharaoh''': "Yeah, let's do a head count here, shall we? I've got Slifer, Obelisk, and Ra: the Egyptian Gods, a Priest Seto, who can tear monsters out of people's souls, a girl who can predict the future (Isis), one of the most powerful sorcerers in the world (Mahad), and his... less powerful apprentice (Mana), an old man who possesses the ultimate and unstoppable monster (Shimon), and Shada."
