** In Battle City, Marik disguises himself as Namu before the Finals. In the original Japanese version, it is explained that he does this because he doesn't understand why Ishizu would give a God Card to Kaiba and he wants to stay hidden while he investigates Kaiba's connection to the past. The dub leaves out the explaination as to why Marik would do this.

** Doubles with ArtisticLicenseHistory, but the dub consistently says that the Pharaoh reigned 5000 years ago, which would place him in the middle of the First Dynasty of Egypt. Later on, most of Season 5 takes place during his reign in Thebes during the New Kingdom, millennia after the dub says he reigned (when Thebes itself was just a small trading post and the Giza pyramids were still 400 years from being built). The Japanese version explicitly places the Pharaoh in the 18th Dynasty, which is far more accurate to the Egypt we see in the series.

** This also applies to the video games. Many of the earliest games featured a substantial number of original cards, let players fuse cards freely without Polymerization, and this allowed for hundreds of potential fusion combos into ever-stronger monsters. What's also curious though is that they prominently feature two antagonists named Heishin and [=DarkNite=], characters who have no pre-existing basis in the anime or manga. The most substantial story featuring them is ''Forbidden Memories'', which implies that in Ancient Egypt it was actually Heishin who rebelled against the Pharaoh and Priest Seto was his subordinate, [=DarkNite=] was essentially Zorc as the god of darkness Heishin wanted power from, and Yami Bakura didn't seem to play into things at all. While this may have done at the time of ''Forbidden Memories'' to avoid spoilers for the Memory Arc that hadn't occurred in the manga yet, the games had no problem prominently featuring the Rare Hunters, Yami Marik, and the Battle City storyline, when the latter hadn't concluded yet. By the time the games shifted to focus on ''GX'' during its airing, Akhenadin and Zorc hadn't appeared in ''any'' of the official video games, leaving Heishin and [=DarkNite=] to act as their stand-ins.

** This series has a number of major characters who don’t play Duel Monsters. So while Tea, Tristan and Duke are considered important for being in Yugi’s circle of friends, they aren’t very involved in the main plotlines other than acting as emotional support. Mokuba is also mainly used as a [[DesignatedVictim kidnapping target]] and MoralityPet for his brother. The later series have very few characters who don’t actively play the game to some degree. This also ties in with Duel Monsters become far more prominent in society as the franchise goes on, where anyone not involved with the card game is seen as odd.
