The line is often used to reference the event of that episode or to describe the hypothetical fusion of the four boys even after the term is out ("Hitotsu ni" means "become one").[[/labelnote]]

* [[AccidentalInnuendo Yuto is really inside him!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]] Ruri says this exact line in Episode 129. While it makes sense in context (Yuto is spiritually bound to Yuya like how Atem was bound to Yugi, and she has just realised this fact due to Yuya summoning Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon), outside of context it's extremely suspect and abusable.[[/labelnote]]
