Line #11 Recap/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeriesS3E13CrowdAtlas


1	->"You know, sometimes people ask me if I play ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''. Eh heh heh heh… I don't.
2	-->'''-Yami Yugi'''
3
4	!!Tropes:
5	* AwesomeButImpractical: Kaiba makes a move that gives him unlimited cards, which... doesn't do much strategically [[note]]beyond preventing game over by Deck Out, which they both came dangerously close to near the end of their duel in the original show[[/note]]. But it sounded cool.
6	* BluntYes: Inverted; After Yami wins, he rhetorically asks if being the vaguely titled King of Games and [[SeriousBusiness winning the card game]] is far more valuable than being [[Fiction500 rich]] and [[MegaCorp powerful]] like Kaiba. Kaiba, in a display of [[SanityBall uncharacteristically sensible]] priorities, says no.
7	* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: "Pegasus wasn't ''manly''. He was a fop! A fruit! A fruity, foppish ''fruit-fop!''"
8	* CallBack: Melvin makes an offhand comment about having killed a baby earlier that day. Which is strange, because there haven't really been any infant characters besides the youngest Roba sibling and- [[FridgeHorror oh my various gods]].
9	* CallingYourAttacks: Lampshaded. There's no need for Yami to [[AsYouKnow explain]] what his card does out loud to Kaiba, he just does it to piss him off. It results in a BigShutUp.
10	* DescriptionCut: "No doubt [Melvin] is already hard at work plotting his next cruel scheme!"
11	-->''[meanwhile]''
12	-->'''Melvin:''' ''[looking in a mirror]'' Would you fuck me? [[SelfCest I'd fuck me]]. I'd fuck me hard.
13	* FailedASpotCheck: Tea is taken off guard by Ishizu suddenly appearing beside her. [[EpicFail Multiple times]].
14	* HurricaneOfPuns: Yami makes a barrage of adoption-based puns to mess with Kaiba's head.
15	* HypocriticalHumor: Yami flatly states that he doesn't play ''Pokémon'', but that doesn't stop him from getting excited about trading "a shiny" a mere two episodes after this one.
16	* ImmediateSelfContradiction: Kaiba demands wallpaper with cartoon dragons on it for his office seconds after claiming to be a "serious guy".
17	* ItsAllAboutMe: Yami forbids Yugi from crying over the potential death of his best friend just so he won't be "distracted" before his duel with Kaiba.
18	* LameComeback: "This proves nothing." "Proves you're a dick!"
19	** Creator/LittleKuriboh even referred to this line as a result of him writing himself "into a corner".
20	* LiteralMinded: Kaiba responds to being told "Not so fast!" by literally slowing down his speech.
21	* MythologyGag: Yami calls Kaiba's cheat codes "a fine-ass madness". That is, "pretty crazy" (as in [[Recap/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeriesS1E1Pilot "My voice is pretty crazy, too"]]) rendered in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0IihzFoUlI Ebonics]].
22	* NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer:
23	** Utter by Mokuba cheering for Kaiba.
24	-->'''Mokuba:''' [actual 4Kids dialogue] "C'mon bro, take it to the hoop!"
25	** PlayedForLaughs with Yugi and Kaiba screaming when the God cards destroyed each other.
26	-->'''Yugi & Kaiba:''' [actual 4kids dialogue] "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
27	* OhMyGods: Kaiba uses "Oh my money" while Yami opts for "Oh my various gods!".
28	* OnceMoreWithVolume: A variation occurs:
29	-->'''Kaiba''': Now go Obelisk! Attack Yugi directly!\
30	'''Yami Yugi''': Not so fast Kaiba!\
31	'''Kaiba''': Go ... Obelisk ... Attack ... Yugi ...
32	* RaceLift: Kaiba questions why his past self appears white even though he was really Egyptian. This in turn brings up the question of why his present self is also white, despite being Japanese.
33	* RunningGag: Bitch, I might be!
34	* SanityBall: Kaiba very briefly holds it when he [[BluntYes bluntly acknowledges]] that his obscene wealth and corporate power are far more valuable than winning Yugi's vaguely defined "King of Games" title.
35	* ShoutOut: Kaiba's colorful holographic field is accompanied by the ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'' theme.
36	** Kaiba's Enemy Controller card can use the KonamiCode.
37	* TranslationConvention: "Ancient Egyptian" is rendered as regular English played backwards, which all requires subtitles.
38	* UnexplainedRecovery: Joey emerges unscathed from an off-screen coma.
39	* WaxingLyrical: Kaiba and Yami sing to the tune of "We Will Rock You" by Queen.
40	-->'''Tea:''' What's happening out there, Duke?
41	-->'''Duke:''' I think they're singing. Yep, pretty sure they're singing. [[LampshadeHanging It's fucking weird]].
42	* WorthyOpponent: Yami concedes that Kaiba is his greatest adversary.
