** As pointed out by ShintaReviews, the concept of Anubis as a villain is rather inspired. As in Egyptian mythology, the Pharaohs would take on the role of Osiris's will on Earth, though said god was syncretised to be the god of the dead, taking away Anubis's domain. This, combined with Atem essentially cheating death with the Millenium Puzzle, and thus slipping out of Anubis's grasp, means that he would have a personal vendetta against Yugi, the Pharaoh and their friends and reclaim what he views as rightfully his. The problem is that all of this only comes from reading between the lines and taking cues from the source material, as the sub barely even pays lip-service to the idea and the dub ignores it entirely.

Actually, it does make some lick of sense. Kaiba didn't always have all existing Blue-Eyes, it was initially just a very rare card that only had four copies. If using the anime only, one copy belonged to Professor Hawkins and was lent to Solomon, and the other three Kaiba looked for and bought for himself. If using the manga, the fourth was Solomon's outright, and Kaiba stole that one first, but Yugi got it back, then Kaiba got the other three illegally. In both cases, he took Solomon's, and ripped it up so that only he would have any. Assuming Pegasus designed Shining Dragon immediately after he made the God Cards, then it could be used by anyone who had one of the four existing copies, it's just Kaiba ruined that by claiming all for himself.

* WritersCannotDoMath: There was a critical error in the duel regarding Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon's attack-gaining effect. It gained 300 ATK for each Dragon in Kaiba's graveyard, but for whatever reason his Paladin of White Dragon (which is, and what blatantly shown to be via its card text, a Dragon) was not included among the monsters used to calculate the increase. If it had, the extra 300 damage would have been enough to defeat Yugi.
