* {{Troll}}: In the original, he ruined the lives of his henchmen so they would become his servants. Here, he just did it to be a dick.

* OrcusOnHisThrone: Played for laughs in Season 5, where he ''wants'' to finally get to his final confrontation with Yugi and the Pharoah, but unfortunately he's been sidelined (with only the former narrator of the now-cancelled WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged for company) waiting for Yugi to show up because Season 5 is a ''filler arc'' and Yugi and his friends are busy with something completely unrelated. At a ''theme park'', no less. Florence is exasperated to no end by this.

* CreepyChild: Has the appearance of a child, but frequently displays a PsychoticSmirk, has a quite creepy EvilLaugh, and taunts Kaiba with an IronicNurseryTune.

* LoopholeAbuse: Sets the terms of his 3-on-1 duel with the "pwotagonists" in a manner extremely advantageous to himself akin to [[Anime/YuGiOhZexal Dr. Faker]]. While the abridged movie doesn't touch upon how he has 4000 life points while his opponents have to share a joint pool of 4000 life points, it does highlight how absurd it is that he not only gets the very first turn of the duel, but gets to have one after Yusei, Jaden, and Yugi each do.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Ironically, this version has a more petty reason to be evil. Yami Bakura had to watch his whole village get raided and dumped into molten gold as a child, while Florence decided to be evil simply because his parents try to force him to be more like a girl. What's more, Zorc is a separate character from Bakura in this continuity, meaning Florence was doing everything in his own free will instead of being influenced by him.

Ambiguous Disorder is not a trope anymore, but a redirect to a YMMV entry.


* AmbiguousDisorder: In ''Marik & Bakura Go To Censored Town'', the narrator says that Marik has what can only be described as [[EnemyWithin "Melvin dreams"]].



* AmbiguousDisorder: Indulges in maniacal laughter, prone to physically touching other characters in a creepy manner, and is implied to have [[GoMadFromTheIsolation gone mad from isolation]].

* VillainHasAPoint: One that he's not entirely off-based with either. In his BreakingSpeech, he points out that not only was the Pharaoh a tyrant in his own time, but tells Yami Yugi ever since he came back to life, he spent most of his second life insulting his own friends, and taking their friendship for granted, including the boy whose body he inhabits. Rather than appreciate that they have the patience to be around him, and even considered them his friends. In this case, Dartz is ''absolutely right''. This point gives Yami Yugi much deserved CharacterDevelopment from this.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Though it's not like Gozaburo wasn't a huge bastard in the original anime, here he's even ''worse''; he revels in his admission that he made his fortune manufacturing weapons of mass destruction that threaten the world's stability, he plans to tear down an orphanage to build a theme park on the grounds and dismissives concerns about the orphans, and while he at least cared a ''bit'' about Noah in the original anime, here he has to struggle to remember he even exists and mocks his death to his face.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In canon, Paradox lived through the apocalypse and is [[VillainHasAPoint correct]] about Duel Monsters inadvertently causing it. In the abridged series, he's relying on second-hand information to blame Duel Monsters, making his reasons for killing Pegasus less sympathetic.

Bishonen has been made a Fan Speak page, and You Gotta Have Blue Hair has been made a redirect to Hair Colors


* VocalDissonance: Part of Dartz's humor is that his silly voice and speech patterns don't fit his {{bishonen}} design at all.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair:
** And red, and green, and yellow, and... whatever color Little Kuriboh feels like making it at the time.
** UpToEleven in the actual series, where his hair is '''constantly''' changing colors in real time instead of just between scenes...until episode 73, where he washes the dye out of his hair. The trope still applies, since it turns out he's "a natural [[BuffySpeak turquoise-ee]]".

Added DiffLines:

* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: The Abridged version of the Millenium Rod can only control the minds of people named Steve (or some variation of it), forcing Marik to go the extra mile to gain control of certain characters, such as tricking Joey and Tea into legally changing their names. This limitation gets even more ridiculous once you consider that not only is Marik Egyptian, where the name Steve would be extremely rare to start with, but the Rod itself is from ''ancient'' Egypt, predating the name entirerly.

* OutsideContextVillain: Despite initially working for 4Kids, he becomes this for ''The Cancelled Series'', as he stops working for them and just does his own thing. And considering he is a psychopathic serial killer, the fact that Noah didn't plan to keep him out of the way was a bit of a misstep on his part. Once Melvin gets bored, he wanders around and eventually starts making a mess of everything, which causes problems for Noah later. If Noah's and/or Gozaburo's plans had actually succeeded, Melvin may have simply just murdered them and the Big Five.
