Yugi Muto wird in der Schule mal wieder erpresst - diesmal von Ushio, dem fiesen Flurdienst. In einer langen Nacht schafft er es, das schwierige Millenium-Puzzle zusammenzusetzen. Nur noch ein Teil fehlt. Jonouchi, ein Klassenkamerad bringt Yugi das verlorengegangene Puzzle-Teil. Das ist der Beginn einer großen Freundschaft und der Moment, in dem Yugi das erste Mal sein zweites Gesicht zeigt...

10th grader Yugi spent most of his time alone playing games...until he solved the Millennium Puzzle, a mysterious Egyptian artifact! Possessed by the puzzle, Yugi becomes Yu-Gi-Oh, the King of Games, and challenges evildoers to the Shadow Games...weird games with high stakes and high risks! These graphic novels contain new stories not seen in the anime, including the origin of Yugi and his friends! Meet Seto Kaiba, master of the world's most dangerous collectible card game. When Kaiba discovers that Yugi's grandfather owns the incredibly rare "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" card, he will stop at nothing to get it...even if he has to duel with Yugi's dark alter-ego Yu-Gi-Oh! Then, an Egyptian museum exhibit brings with it an unwelcome Shadi, the mystical Keeper of the Millennium Items, whose bloodline has guarded the tombs of Egypt for 3,000 years. Recognizing Yu-Gi-Oh as his only rival, he puts him to the test to see who is the true King of Games...

With the Millennium Scales and the Millennium Key, Shadi summons deadly illusions that, if Yugi can't successfully fight them, will kill his best friends. Later, Yugi and his friends discover the hidden characters in digital keychain pets, and Yugi meets Mokuba, Kaiba's brother, for a high-stakes game of "Capsule Monster Chess."

Kaiba plans revenge when Yugi beats him at a collectible card game, and Yugi, Jonouchi, Honda, and Anzu must survive the "Death T," a theme park that has among its features electric chairs and guillotines.

Yugi, Jonouchi, and Anzu have survived Kaiba's deadly theme park, but now they're faced with the two Kaiba brothers, heirs of the biggest game empire in Japan. Seto Kaiba has spent years and millions of dollars building the greatest "Duel Monsters" deck ever. Armed only with his grandfather's hand-me-down deck, Yugi fights Seto Kaiba for his grandfather, for his friends, and most of all, for revenge. But will faith, and good card playing, be enough?

When Yugi beat Kaiba at a card game, little did he know the consequences: a trip through Kaiba's "Death T" — a theme park of death — and a series of evil spells against Yugi's family. It doesn't help that Kaiba's little brother also has a score to settle.
