* ArtEvolution: Many of the early character designs got significantly changed as the manga went on and Takahashi's overall aesthetic changed. Jonouchi's hairstyle changes from a Leonardo [=DiCaprio=]-esque style to the signature Jonouchi style, Dark Yugi appears increasingly less deranged and psychotic-looking, Kaiba goes from being kind of short to one of the tallest characters in the series, Mokuba goes from being chubby and mean-looking to a more Moe appearance, etc. More recent art by Takahashi, including the pieces included in the [[UpdatedRerelease bunkoban]] and illustrations for the card game show a marked improvement in Takahashi's painting ability, making the characters look more realistic.

** In Chapter 8, Yugi discovers that the shoe store owner hired some street punks to steal back a pair of popular high-tech sneakers he had just sold to Jonouchi. In retaliation, he challenges the owner to a Shadow Game that involved getting the most coins out of the sneaker without getting stung by the owner's pet scorpion inside it. For each coin that the store owner got, the larger the sum of the money Yugi would have to pay him if he won the game. The store owner, in his greed, hastily tries stabbing at the scorpion inside the shoe and then grab all the coins inside the sneaker. When he realizes that his hand is stuck, he then hears his pet scorpion still shuffling inside the shoe, as he missed. The store owner ends up getting stung by said scorpion, is taken to a hospital to be treated, and Yugi takes the shoes back to Jonouchi.

** In the very first chapter, Hall Monitor Ushio self-appoints himself as Yugi's bodyguard and then goes on to beat up both Honda and Jonouchi (Tristan and Joey in the English dub of the anime), and then charges Yugi with 200,000 yen as a fee. When Yugi defends the defenseless Honda and Jounouchi, Ushio beats up Yugi as well, then threatens him with a knife to bring the money or else. When Yugi manages to complete the Millennium Puzzle and unlock its power, he challenges Ushio to an AbsurdlyHighStakesGame: use Ushio's knife to stab at a stack of bills on top of their hands, with whatever the knife gets is what they keep (Yugi even bringing 400,000 yen instead of 200,000 like Ushio asked). Ushio's true nature comes out at the end of the game, where he finds himself unable to stab at the money without also getting his hand. In the end, he tries cheating by stabbing Yugi, which ends with him getting inflicted with a Penalty Game (fittingly called "Greed, the Illusion of Avarice"). He suddenly sees everything around him as money, when in reality he's grabbing onto dead leaves and trash, while Yugi walks away with all the money he initially brought as "payment" for his bodyguard services.
** In Chapter 42, Jonouchi is looking to win a million yen by entering a GameShow, being selected as one of its participants. He however was selected by the TV producers since his background of a poor family and an abusive alcoholic father made them believe that he could get them high ratings. During the show, it becomes obvious that he has no intention of giving Jonouchi money if he wins, making sure to rig the final wheel spin to make him lose. Yugi, overhearing this, takes matters into his own hands by playing a game with the producer, and subsequently deals a penalty game. Said penalty game causes the producer to get in front of the live television cameras and demand money from the audience, ruining the production company and bankrupting them.
