Tropes

  • Camp Gay: The Paradox Brothers.
  • Curse Cut Short: One Paradox Brother attempts to rhyme "crass" with "nose".
    First Brother: You were supposed to say "ass", brother. I thought we rehearsed this.
  • Finishing Each Other's Sentences: The Paradox Brothers speak this way, and it all Rhymes on a Dime.
  • Going Commando:
    Para: Against our gate Guardian, you have no chance!
    Dox: I'm not wearing any underpants!
    Para: Is that true, brother, or are you just rhyming?
    Dox: I didn't want to throw off our timing...But it is true.
  • Rhymes on a Dime: By the end of the episode, almost everybody is doing it.
    Yami: Joey. It's time for a surprise attack.
    Joey: No worries Yug, I got your back.
    Yami: Hang on a second, are we rhyming too?
    Joey: Don't ask me. I ain't got a clue.
    Yami: This is like something out of Dr. Seuss!
    Tea: I can't stop staring at Yugi's caboose.
    Bakura: Everyone seems to have gone all rhyme-y.
    Tristan: Shut the hell up, you stupid limey!
    * Self-Made Orphan: Kaiba ended up orphaning both himself and Mokuba after he apparently fired his own parents.
  • Ship Tease: Kaiba actually asks the "Attention Duelists" man if he wants to go see a movie with him. (Un?)fortunately, it's a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment and never comes up again.
  • Shout-Out: To Star Trek: The Next Generation. The card that switches Dark Magician with Black Skull Dragon sounds like the transporter, and the dragon's attack against Gate Guardian sounds like photon torpedoes being fired. Yami even says Picard's Catchphrase at one point: "Make it so, Number One!"
  • Spinoff Babies: Parodied with "Kaiba Babies".
