Shouldn\'t this article, or at least the examples, should be separated into the different series? (the original, the sands of time, and the 2008 game)

So what? They\'re still different people, just because they\'re all duelists doesn\'t that they will all react in the same way(and again, they didn\'t face the sme thing). Doma actually does brings up the question what happened to Mai after Battle City, and answers it. So it doesn\'t come out of nowhere, and therefore it\'s not derailment.

But they provided a good reason for him to be worried once it was brought up, one of the few memories that Yami has about the past it the vision of a destroyied city, for all he knows, he could have been the one that have done that. Rafael is not just \\\"random evil dude\\\", he is part of an age old organization that knows about the past, and he already proven himself to be honorable, both by his dueling and by releasing Prof. Hopkins before Yami even got there. Also, Yami wasn\\\'t a very nice guy when he was first released. So he had a good reason to be insecure about it. Doma being filler is meaningless, because we are talking about the anime, not the manga, and anime made plenty of changes to the original work. And AdaptationDecay do not count as character derailment. Again, Yami\\\'s ruthlessness and arrogance are still part of him, so they do not come out of nowhere, and it took very specific circumstances to get them to resurface. And if it didn\\\'t came out of nowhere, then it\\\'s not derailment by definition, no matter how badly written you think it is.
As for the wangst part, Yugi is closer to Yami than Jou and this time it really was Yami\\\'s fault, it\\\'s only natural that he will react worse. Other than that, the only real difference is the time that took them to get over it, as both cases required outside interference(the Tauk in Jou\\\'s case, the Yugi/Yami battle at the stone wilderness in Yugi
\\\'s case).
