kasus korupsi
Contoh kasus pidana di Indonesia
Jakarta, Targetnews
Sebanyak 440 polisi terlibat tindak pidana selama tahun 2008 sehingga kasusnya harus diserahkan ke kejaksaan untuk diproses ke pengadilan.
Dari jumlah itu 49 orang diantarnya terlibat kasus narkoba, sedangkan sisanya terlibat kasus pidana umum antara lain penganiayaan, pencurian, perampokan, judi dan zina.
Jumlah ini mengalami kenaikan jika dibandingkan tahun 2007 yang berjumlah 266 polisi, terdiri dari 21 kasus narkoba dan 234 pidana umum. “Ini cukup menyedihkan karena jumlahnya naik dibandingkan dengan tahun 2007,” kata Kadiv Propam Mabes polri, Irjen Po. Alentin Simanjuntak dalam jumpa pers.
Menurutnya, Polri berkomitmen untuk menindak siapa saja yang bersalah. Polri juga mencatat pada tahun 2008, jumlah polisi yang dipecat sebanyak 322 orang, naik drastis dari tahun 2007 yang hanya 143 orang.
Kasus pelanggaran disiplin di tubuh Polri juga meningkat dari tahun sebelumnya, yaitu sebanyak 6.610 perkara yang naik sebesar 17% dari tahun 2007 yang 5.436 kasus. “Pelanggaran disiplin yang dilakukan oleh anggota Polri yang dimaksud adalah penyalahgunaan wewenang dan meninggalkan wilayah tugas tanpa ijin’” kata Kadiv Propam menambahkan.
Ia menambahkan, Mabes Polri juga membuat peringkat Kepolisian Daerah (Polda) yang paling aktif menangani kasus pelanggaran disiplin. Untuk tahun 2007, posisi 5 besar diraih Polda Sumatera Utara, Jawa Timur, Jawa Barat, Lampung dan Sulawesi Tenggara. Sementara untuk tahun 2008 posisi 5 besar dicapai Polda Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, DIY, Jawa Timur dan Sulawesi Selatan.
Berikut Data Pelanggaran Disiplin Anggota Polisi tersebut :

Polres Simalungun Limpahkan 1 Kasus Pidana Pemilu ke Kejari
Posted in Marsipature Hutanabe by Redaksi on April 28th, 2009
Simalungun (SIB)
Polres Simalungun melimpahkan satu berkas kasus tindak pidana Pemilu legislatif ke Kejaksaaan Negeri Simalungun atas nama tersangka MS(42) alias Aldo, warga Nagori Sibuntuon, Kecamatan Dolok Pardamean, Senin (27/4). Tersangka disidik dalam kaitan dugaan praktek politik uang yang dilaporkan Panwaslu Simalungun ke Sentra Gakkumdu Polres Simalungun.
“Hanya ada satu kasus tindak pidana Pemilu yang ditangani Polres Simalungun yang dapat dilimpahkan ke Kejaksaan karena memenuhi unsur pidana. Satu kasus tersebut atas nama tersangka MS karena melakukan praktek politik uang agar warga memilih calon tertentu dengan membagikan uang dan P21 atau berkasnya sudah lengkap,” kata Kasat Reskrim AKP Deddy Supriadi, SIK didampingi Kanit Jahtanras Aiptu Suandi A Sinaga di Mapolres, Senin (27/4).
Ditambahkan, sebelumnya Panwaslu melaporkan sebanyak lima kasus dugaan pidana Pemilu ke Sentra Penegakan Hukum Terpadu (Gakumdu) di Polres Simalungun, namun hanya satu yang ditindaklanjuti, karena empat kasus lagi sudah kadaluarsa atau lewat dari batas waktu pelaporan maksimal lima hari sejak masuknya laporan ke Panwaslu.
Mengenai kasus dugaan pidana Pemilu yang sudah P21, Kasat Reskrim menyebutkan berdasarkan laporan Panwaslu, MS diduga membagikan amplop berisi kartu nama Caleg Parpol tertentu beserta uang tunai Rp12.500,- kepada pasangan suami isteri warga Nagori Sibuntuon, Kecamatan Dolok Pardamean pada saat Pemilu hendak dilaksanakan, Kamis (9/4) dini hari agar memilih Caleg tertentu itu.
Mengenai Caleg yang dibagikan MS kartu namanya, Kasat Reskrim menyebutkan pihak Sentra Gakumdu tidak memanggilnya, karena tidak bisa dipastikan keterkaitannya dalam kasus dugaan pidana Pemilu itu.
Kedua suami istri itu selanjutnya melaporkan kasus dugaan pidana Pemilu itu ke Panwaslu setempat dan menyerahkan barang bukti satu amplop berisi kartu nama caleg tertentu itu beserta uang tunai Rp 12.500,- di dalamnya.
“MS diduga melanggar Pasal 286 Undang-undang nomor 10 tahun 2008 tentang Pemilu dan diancam dengan hukuman minimal 12 bulan penjara dan maksimal 36 bulan penjara atau denda minimal Rp6 juta dan maksimal Rp36 juta,” sebut Deddy. (S21)

Polri Temukan Indikasi Pidana Kasus AdamAir
Dikirim/ditulis pada 14 July 2008 oleh legalitas
• Berita Legalitas
Pengusutan terjadinya tindak pidana dalam kasus AdamAir (PT Adam SkyConnection Airlines) mulai ada titik terang.
Mabes Polri kemarin telah melaporkan adanya indikasi terjadinya tindak pidana di unit perusahaan penerbangan tersebut. ”Sejauh ini hasil penyelidikan kita sudah ada gambaran indikasi tindak pidana,” tegas Direktur I Keamanan dan Transnasional Bareskrim Mabes Polri Brigjen Pol Badrodin Haiti kemarin.
Badrodin mengatakan, terkait dengan indikasi tersebut,pihak-nya kini masih terus menyelidiki kasus itu.Beberapa langkah yang sedang dilakukan penyidik Polri, yaitu mengirim tim ke Medan,Sumatera Utara (Sumut) untuk menelusuri dugaan penyelewengan dana on board Jakarta–Medan.
”Kita sudah memeriksapihakterlapor,tapitidak cukup dengan itu.Kita harus ke Medan dan beberapa lainnya lagi untuk mendalami,”terang Badrodin. Seperti diberitakan pada Rabu (26/3) lalu, Direktur Keuangan AdamAir Gustiono Kustianto yang juga wakil dari PT Global Transportasion Service (GTS), telah melaporkan adanya dugaan tindak pidana penyelewengan keuangan di maskapai tersebut oleh empat orang keluarga pendiri dan tiga direksi AdamAir ke Mabes Polri.
Keluarga pendiri dan direksi AdamAir yang menjadi terlapor,di antaranya Wakil Komisaris Utama AdamAir Sandra Ang,Presiden Direktur AdamAir Adam Aditya Suherman, Komisaris AdamAir Gunawan Suherman,Direktur Operasional AdamAir Irawan Sugondo, dan Direktur Keselamatan Hartono.
Saat itu GTS melaporkan bahwa pihak keluarga pendiri AdamAir melakukan permainan terhadap nilai kargo, pengambilan dana on board, dan laporan keuangan yang tidak sesuai. Dijelaskan Badrodin,selain melakukan penelusuran,Mabes Polri masih akan memeriksa beberapa orang saksi antara lain pilot pesawat dan beberapa karyawan maskapai penerbangan yang mulai beroperasi pada 19 Desember 2003 itu.
Penyidik juga melakukan pendalaman karena kasus yang dilaporkan perusahaan penyerta modal AdamAir itu tidak sedikit. ”Yang dilaporkan itu banyak,tidak hanya satu dugaan tindak pidana. ada beberapa hal yang terkait penggelapan dana penyertaan modal,” tukas mantan Kapolda Sulawesi Tengah (Sulteng) ini.
Diakui, ketujuh orang yang menjadi terlapor dalam kasus dugaan penggelapan dana penyertaan modal senilai Rp157 miliar itu sudah menjalani pemeriksaan sebagai saksi. Beberapa penyimpangan yang diduga dilakukan ketujuh terlapor tersebut, yaitu simpang siurnya data jumlah karyawan sehingga memengaruhi anggaran yang dikeluarkan untuk gaji karyawan.
Terkait kargo,GTS melaporkan karena ada ketidaktransparanan manajemen AdamAir ketika melaporkan ke perusahaan.Contohnya, AdamAir menyewakan kargo kepada penumpang maskapai penerbangan itu seharga Rp6.600– 9.100/ kg.
Jika dirata-ratakan, uang yang seharusnya masuk perusahaan sebesar Rp10 miliar–12 miliar per bulan. Tapi yang disetor ke perusahaan, hanya sekitar Rp3 miliar per bulan atau sekitar Rp1.250 per kg. Belum lagi dana tiket on board yang seharusnya masuk pendapatan perusahaan,tetapi malah dinikmati untuk kepentingan pribadi. GTS pun sudah menyerahkan semua bukti yang menguatkan dugaannya itu kepada Mabes Polri.
Di tempat terpisah,Chief Financial Officer GTS Erwin Andersen menyatakan beberapa karyawan AdamAir lainnya juga siap dimintai keterangan oleh pihak kepolisian. Sementara itu,dia menyambut baik langkah hukum yang sudah dilakukan Mabes Polri dengan menemukan indikasi adanya tindak pidana itu.
”Kami berterima kasih atas tindakan yang sudah dilakukan Polri untuk mengungkap kasus ini,” ujar Erwin kepada SINDO kemarin. Untuk itu, Erwin mendukung dan menunggu tindakan Polri untuk bisa mengusut tuntas kasus tersebut selanjutnya. (rd kandi)

MACAM-MACAM ALAT TANGAN
Obeng
Obeng adalah sebuah alat yang digunakan untuk mengencangkan atau mengendorkan baut. Ada beberapa model obeng yang digunakan di seluruh dunia. Jenis yang sangat umum di Indonesia adalah model Phillips (+) and slotted (-). Jenis obeng lain yang digunakan di negara-negara lain antara lain Torx (bintang segi enam), Hex (segi enam), Robertson (kotak).
Kunci Inggris
. Dengan kunci Inggris tersebut sang montir bisa membuka berbagai macam ukuran baut.
Bagaimana caranya? Ya, caranya dengan mengembangkan dan menyempitkan ukuran kunci Inggris.
Kunci pas
Untuk membuka baut filter bensin kudu pake Special Tools tuh..
Bentuknya mirip banget seperti kunci Pas tapi khusus untuk buka Fuel Filter, namanya FLARE NUT
Perhatikan bentuknya.. mirip seperti kunci ring yang dipotong/digergaji satu sisinya.
Kalau dipaksa dengan kunci Pas, mungkin aja bisa.. tapi bisa merusak bautnya atau malah mematahkan komponen lain… Hiiiii…Seraaam.
Harga lumajan mahal tuh yang merek KWT ukuran 17mm sekitar 60ribu per buah.
semoga membantu,
Kunci ring
Fungsi kunci ring alias offset wrench dan kunci sok menutupi kekurangan kunci pas atau spanner. Membuka baut sangat berisiko menggunakan kunci pas. Kepala baut bisa slek karena tidak semua kepala baut yang kena kunci pas. Apalagi buka baut motor baru yang pastinya masing sangat keras. Kan memang dari pabrik dikencangkan pakai impact.
Cara paling aman pakai kunci ring atau sok. Kecuali posisi baut dihalangi komponen lain. Kepala baut cuma bisa kena sebagian sama kunci. Giliran kunci pas dipakai. "Menggunakan kunci ring atau pas adalah cara tepat merawat kepala baut," beber Dwi Supriyatno, Service Engineer, Technical Service Division PT Wahana Makmur Sejati (WMS), main dealer Honda Jakarta-Tangerang-Bekasi.
Beberapa ukuran kunci ring dan sok punya persamaan. Kunci 8-10 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm, 17 mm, dan 19 mm. Tapi, kunci sok punya ukuran 11 mm, 13 mm, dan 21 mm yang enggak dimilik kunci ring. KLIK - Detail
Kedua kunci ini berfungsi sama kayak kunci lain. Yakni, melepas dan mengencangkan baut. Tapi, kunci sok punya banyak fungsi yang enggak dimiliki kunci ring. Soalnya tiga jenis sok yang bisa digunakan buat membuka-menutup.
Misal, kunci sokT mengurangi beban tangan waktu membuka baut yang ada di cover bodi atau di mesin. Termasuk saat mengencangkan bisa disesuaikan torsinya. Kunci sok disambung dengan kunci momen. Kunci yang fleksibel membantu pengguna membuka baut di bagian yang enggak terjangkau kunci ring.
Gunting

Jangka sorong
Jangka sorong adalah alat ukur yang ketelitiannya dapat mencapai seperseratus milimeter. Terdiri dari dua bagian, bagian diam dan bagian bergerak. Pembacaan hasil pengukuran sangat bergantung pada keahlian dan ketelitian pengguna maupun alat. Sebagian keluaran terbaru sudah dilengkapi dengan bacaan digital. Pada versi analog, umumnya tingkat ketelitian adalah 0.05mm untuk jangka sorang dibawah 30cm dan 0.01 untuk yang diatas 30cm.
Kegunaan
Kegunaan jangka sorong adalah:untuk mengukur suatu benda dari sisi luar dengan cara diapit; untuk mengukur sisi dalam suatu benda yang biasanya berupa lubang (pada pipa, maupun lainnya) dengan cara diulur; untuk mengukur kedalamanan celah/lubang pada suatu benda dengan cara "menancapkan/menusukkan" bagian pengukur. Bagian pengukur tidak terlihat pada gambar karena berada di sisi pemegang.
Mikrometer adalah alat ukur yang dapat melihat dan mengukur benda dengan satuan ukur yang memiliki 0.01 mm
Satu mikrometer adalah secara luas digunakan alat di dalam teknik mesin electro untuk mengukur ketebalan secara tepat dari blok-blok, luar dan garis tengah dari kerendahan dan batang-batang slot. Mikrometer ini banyak dipakai dalam metrology, studi dari pengukuran,
Pada bab ini akan membahas tentang : 1 Jenis 2 Membaca satu mikrometer sistem inci 3 Membaca satu mikrometer metrik 4 Membaca satu mikrometer vernier 5. Acuan
Mikrometer memiliki 3 jenis umum pengelompokan yang didasarkan pada aplikasi berikut :
Mikrometer Luar Mikrometer luar digunakan untuk ukuran memasang kawat, lapisan-lapisan, blok-blok dan batang-batang.
Mikrometer dalam Mikrometer dalam digunakan untuk menguukur garis tengah dari lubang suatu benda
Mikrometer kedalaman Mikrometer kedalaman digunakan untuk mengukur kerendahan dari langkah-langkah dan slot-slot.
Satu mikrometer ditetapkan dengan menggunakan satu mekanisme sekrup titik nada.
Satu fitur yang menarik tambahan dari mikrometer-mikrometer adalah pemasukan satu tangkai menjadi bengkok yang terisi. Secara normal, orang bisa menggunakan keuntungan mekanis sekrup untuk menekan material, memberi satu pengukuran yang tidak akurat. Dengan cara memasang satu tangkai yang roda bergigi searah keinginan pada satu tenaga putaran tertentu.
MESIN PERKAKAS
Mesin Bubut
Bubut merupakan suatu proses pemakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan dengan cara memutar benda kerja kemudian dikenakan pada pahat yang digerakkan secara translasi sejajar dengan sumbu putar dari benda kerja. Gerakan putar dari benda kerja disebut gerak potong relatif dan gerakkan translasi dari pahat disebut gerak umpan (feeding).
Dengan mengatur perbandingan kecepatan rotasi benda kerja dan kecepatan translasi pahat maka akan diperoleh berbagai macam ulir dengan ukuran kisar yang berbeda. Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengna jalan menukar roda gigi translasi (change gears) yang menghubungkan poros spindel dengan poros ulir (lead screw).
Roda gigi penukar disediakan secara khusus untuk memenuhi keperluan pembuatan ulir. Jumlah gigi pada masing-masing roda gigi penukar bervariasi besarnya mulai dari jumlah 15 sampai dengan jumlah gigi maksimum 127. roda gigi penukar dengan jumlah 127 mempunyai ke khususan karena digunakan untuk monversi dari ulir metrik ke ulir inchi.
• Prinsip Kerja Mesin Bubut
Poros spindel akan memutar benda kerja melalui piringan pembawa sehingga memutar roda gigi pada poros spindel. Melalui roda gigi penghubung, putaran akan disampaikan ke roda gigi poros ulir. Oleh klem berulir, putaran poros ulir tersebut diubah menjadi gerak translasi pada eretan yang membawa pahat. Akibatnya pada benda kerja akan terjadi sayatan yang berbentuk ulir.
• Bagian-Bagian Mesin Bubut
Mesin bubut terdiri dari meja (bed) dan kepala tetap (head stock). Di dalam kepala tetap terdapat roda-roda gigi transmisi penukar putaran yang akan memutar poros spindel. Poros spindel akan menmutar benda kerja melalui cekal (chuck). Eretan utama (appron) akan bergerak sepanjang meja sambil membawa eretan lintang (cross slide) dan eretan atas (upper cross slide) dan dudukan pahat. Sumber utama dari semua gerakkan tersebut berasal dari motor listrik untuk memutar pulley melalui sabuk (belt).
Mesin Freis
Freis merupakan suatu proses memakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan dengan menggunakan pahat yang diputar oleh poros spindel mesin. Pahat Freis (milling cutter) termasuk jenis pahat bersisi potong banyak (multiple point tool). Mesin Freis dari segi operasionalnya dapat diklasifikasikan sebagai berikut:
a Mesin Freis horizontal
b Mesin Freis vertikal
c Mesin Freis serba guna (universal)
d Mesin Freis khusus (special purpose)
Jenis-jenis Freis tersebut diatas memiliki prinsip kerja yang sama. Yang membedakan adalah ukuran benda kerja yang dapat dikerja oleh mesin Freis.
• Prinsip Kerja Mesin Freis
Proses pemotongan (penyayatan) dilakukan dengan menggunakan pahat yang diputar oleh arbor yang berhubungan langsung dengan poros spindel mesin. Posisi pahat pada arbor dapat diatur dengan mengatur letak cincin pemisah (spacer). posisi dari poros arbor atau poros merupakan penentu dari jenis apakah mesin Freis ini, apakah jenis mesin Freis horizontal atau pun vertikal. Untuk mengerjakkan benda-benda kerja yang mempunyai bentuk yang rumit dan ukuran yang relatif besar yang tidak mungkin dikerjakan pada mesin-mesin Freis horizontal maupun vertikal maka dibuat mesin Freis khusus (special purpose).
• Bagian-Bagian Mesin Freis
Mesin ini terdiri dari badan atau kolom yang menyangga ram. Pada bagian depan kolom dipasang batang bimbing (guide) slide ways sehingga lutut (knee) yang ditumpu oleh batang ulir bergerak naik-turun secara lurus. Diatas lutut dipasang pelana (sddle) yang bergerak kemuka dan kebelakang sepanjang guide. Diatas pelana dipasangkan meja yang dapat bergerak ke kiri dan ke kanan agar lutut dapat bergerak naik turun, pelana bergerak maju mundur dan meja bergerak ke kiri dan ke kanan. Tujuan dari gerakan-gerakan pada mesin Freis untuk memenuhi gerak umpan (feeding) tetapi juga untuk memudahkan dalam menentukan posisi pahat terhadap benda kerja sebelum proses pemotongan dilakukan.
Mesin Scrap
Scarp merupakan proses pemakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan oleh badan mesin (ram) yang meluncut bolak-balik pada Gerak potong pahat pada benda kerja merupakan gerakan lurus translasi. Dalam hal ini benda kerja dalam keadaan diam dan pahat bergerak lurus translasi. Pada saat pahat melakukan gerak balik, benda kerja juga melakukan gerak umpan (feeding). Sehingga punggung pahat akan tersangkut pada benda kerja yang sedang bergerak tersebut. Untuk menghindari gangguan ini, pangkal dudukan pahat diberi engsel sehingga punggung pahat dapat berayun pada waktu balik menyentuh benda kerja.
• Prinsip Kerja Mesin Scrap
Benda kerja diletakkan dan dijepit pada meja. Posisi meja dapat juga dinaik-turunkan sepanjang pembimbing melalui poros ulir. Dengan memutar poros ulir yang telah dihubungkan dengan roda gigi maka gerakkan suap dari meja sepanjang pembimbing dapat dilakukan. Dimana roda gigi digerakkan oleh tuas pengungkit secara berkala. Gerakkan berkala ini dibuat sedemikian rupa sehingga poros ulir hanya bergerak pada waktu ram melakukan gerak balik membawa dudukan pahat. Gerak putar dari motor listrik diubah menjadi gerak translasi pada ram.
• Bagian-Bagian Mesin Scrap
Diatas badan mesin terdapat ram yang meluncur bolak-balik pada pembimbing (guide). Didepan ram dipasang leher sehingga dudukan pahat dapat berputar posisi ke kiri dan ke kanan. Tuas pemutar digunakan untuk menurunkan/menaikkan posisi dudukan pahat sehingga ujung pahat posisinya terhadap benda kerja dapat diatur.
Mesin Gerinda
Mesin gerinda merupakan proses menghaluskan permukaan yang digunakan pada tahap finishing dengan daerah toleransi yang sangat kecil sehingga mesin ini harus memiliki konstruksi yang sangat kokoh.
• Bagian-bagian Mesin Gerinda
Bagian badan mesin yang biasanya terbuat dari besi tuang yang memiliki sifat sebagai peredam getaran yang baik. Fungsinya adalah untuk menopang meja kerja dan menopang kepala rumah spindel.
Bagian poros spindel merupakan bagian yang kritis karena harus berputar dengan kecepatan tinggi juga dibebani gaya pemotongan pada batu gerindanya dalam berbagai arah.
Bagian meja juga merupakan bagian yang dapat mempengaruhi hasil kerja proses gerinda karena diatas meja inilah benda kerja diletakkan melalui suatu ragum ataupun magnetic chuck yang dikencangkan pada meja ini.
Mesin Gergaji
Gergaji merupakan alat perkakas yang berguna untuk memotong benda kerja. Mesin gergaji merupakan mesin pertama yang menentukan proses lebih lanjut. Dapat dimaklumi bahwa mesin ini memiliki kepadatan operasi yang relatif tinggi pada bengkel-bengkel produksi. Gergaji tangan biasa digunakan untuk pekerjaan-pekerjaan yang sederhana dalam jumlah produksi yang rendah. Untuk pekerjaan-pekerjaan dengan persyaratan ketelitian tinggi dengan kapasitas yang tinggi diperlukan mesin-mesin gergaji khusus yang bekerja secara otomatik dengan bantuan mesin.
Mesin-mesin gergaji memiliki konstruksi yang beragam sesuai dengan ukuran, bentuk dan jenis material benda kerja yang akan dipotong. Adapun klasifikasi mesin-mesin gergaji yang terdapat digunakan adalah sebagai berikut:
a Mesin gergaji bolak-balik (Hacksaw-Machine)
Mesin gergaji ini umumnya memiliki pisau gergaji dengan panjang antara 300 mm sampai 900 mm dengan ketebalan 1,25 mm sampai 3 mm dengan jumlah gigi rata-rata antara 1 sampai 6 gigi iper inchi dengan material HSS. Karena gerakkan yang bolak-balik, maka waktu yang digunakan untuk memotong adalah 50%.
b Mesin gergaji piringan (Circular Saw)
Diameter piringan gergaji dapat mencapai 200 sampai 400 mm dengan ketebalan 0,5 mm dengan ketelitian gerigi pada keliling piringan memiliki ketinggian antara 0,25 mm sampai 0,50 mm. pada proses penggergajian ini selalu digunakan cairan pendingin. Toleransi yang dapat dicapai antara kurang lebih 0,5 mm sampai kurang lebih 1,5 mm.
c Mesin Gergaji pita (Band Saw)
Mesin gergaji yang telah dijelaskan sebelumnya adalah gergaji untuk pemotong lurus. Dalam hal mesin gergaji pita memiliki keunikan yaitu mampu memotong dalam bentuk-bentuk tidak lurus atau lengkung yang tidak beraturan. Kecepatan pita gergajinya bervariasi antara 18 m/menit sampai 450 m/menit agar dapat memenuhi kecepatan potong dari berbagai jenis material benda kerja.
POWER TOOL
Mesin las
Mesin ini digunakan untuk menyambung/memutuskan besi.
Bubut merupakan suatu proses pemakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan dengan cara memutar benda kerja kemudian dikenakan pada pahat yang digerakkan secara translasi sejajar dengan sumbu putar dari benda kerja. Gerakan putar dari benda kerja disebut gerak potong relatif dan gerakkan translasi dari pahat disebut gerak umpan (feeding).
Dengan mengatur perbandingan kecepatan rotasi benda kerja dan kecepatan translasi pahat maka akan diperoleh berbagai macam ulir dengan ukuran kisar yang berbeda. Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengna jalan menukar roda gigi translasi (change gears) yang menghubungkan poros spindel dengan poros ulir (lead screw).

Proses pemotongan (penyayatan) dilakukan dengan menggunakan pahat yang diputar oleh arbor yang berhubungan langsung dengan poros spindel mesin. Posisi pahat pada arbor dapat diatur dengan mengatur letak cincin pemisah (spacer). posisi dari poros arbor atau poros merupakan penentu dari jenis apakah mesin Freis ini, apakah jenis mesin Freis horizontal atau pun vertikal. Untuk mengerjakkan benda-benda kerja yang mempunyai bentuk yang rumit dan ukuran yang relatif besar yang tidak mungkin dikerjakan pada mesin-mesin Freis horizontal maupun vertikal maka dibuat mesin Freis khusus (special purpose).
• Bagian-Bagian Mesin Freis
Mesin ini terdiri dari badan atau kolom yang menyangga ram. Pada bagian depan kolom dipasang batang bimbing (guide) slide ways sehingga lutut (knee) yang ditumpu oleh batang ulir bergerak naik-turun secara lurus. Diatas lutut dipasang pelana (sddle) yang bergerak kemuka dan kebelakang sepanjang guide. Diatas pelana dipasangkan meja yang dapat bergerak ke kiri dan ke kanan agar lutut dapat bergerak naik turun, pelana bergerak maju mundur dan meja bergerak ke kiri dan ke kanan. Tujuan dari gerakan-gerakan pada mesin Freis untuk memenuhi gerak umpan (feeding) tetapi juga untuk memudahkan dalam menentukan posisi pahat terhadap benda kerja sebelum proses pemotongan dilakukan.
Mesin Scrap
Scarp merupakan proses pemakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan oleh badan mesin (ram) yang meluncut bolak-balik pada Gerak potong pahat pada benda kerja merupakan gerakan lurus translasi. Dalam hal ini benda kerja dalam keadaan diam dan pahat bergerak lurus translasi. Pada saat pahat melakukan gerak balik, benda kerja juga melakukan gerak umpan (feeding). Sehingga punggung pahat akan tersangkut pada benda kerja yang sedang bergerak tersebut. Untuk menghindari gangguan ini, pangkal dudukan pahat diberi engsel sehingga punggung pahat dapat berayun pada waktu balik menyentuh benda kerja.
• Prinsip Kerja Mesin Scrap
Benda kerja diletakkan dan dijepit pada meja. Posisi meja dapat juga dinaik-turunkan sepanjang pembimbing melalui poros ulir. Dengan memutar poros ulir yang telah dihubungkan dengan roda gigi maka gerakkan suap dari meja sepanjang pembimbing dapat dilakukan. Dimana roda gigi digerakkan oleh tuas pengungkit secara berkala. Gerakkan berkala ini dibuat sedemikian rupa sehingga poros ulir hanya bergerak pada waktu ram melakukan gerak balik membawa dudukan pahat. Gerak putar dari motor listrik diubah menjadi gerak translasi pada ram.
• Bagian-Bagian Mesin Scrap
Diatas badan mesin terdapat ram yang meluncur bolak-balik pada pembimbing (guide). Didepan ram dipasang leher sehingga dudukan pahat dapat berputar posisi ke kiri dan ke kanan. Tuas pemutar digunakan untuk menurunkan/menaikkan posisi dudukan pahat sehingga ujung pahat posisinya terhadap benda kerja dapat diatur.
Mesin Gerinda
Mesin gerinda merupakan proses menghaluskan permukaan yang digunakan pada tahap finishing dengan daerah toleransi yang sangat kecil sehingga mesin ini harus memiliki konstruksi yang sangat kokoh.
• Bagian-bagian Mesin Gerinda
Bagian badan mesin yang biasanya terbuat dari besi tuang yang memiliki sifat sebagai peredam getaran yang baik. Fungsinya adalah untuk menopang meja kerja dan menopang kepala rumah spindel.
Bagian poros spindel merupakan bagian yang kritis karena harus berputar dengan kecepatan tinggi juga dibebani gaya pemotongan pada batu gerindanya dalam berbagai arah.
Bagian meja juga merupakan bagian yang dapat mempengaruhi hasil kerja proses gerinda karena diatas meja inilah benda kerja diletakkan melalui suatu ragum ataupun magnetic chuck yang dikencangkan pada meja ini.
Mesin Gergaji
Gergaji merupakan alat perkakas yang berguna untuk memotong benda kerja. Mesin gergaji merupakan mesin pertama yang menentukan proses lebih lanjut. Dapat dimaklumi bahwa mesin ini memiliki kepadatan operasi yang relatif tinggi pada bengkel-bengkel produksi. Gergaji tangan biasa digunakan untuk pekerjaan-pekerjaan yang sederhana dalam jumlah produksi yang rendah. Untuk pekerjaan-pekerjaan dengan persyaratan ketelitian tinggi dengan kapasitas yang tinggi diperlukan mesin-mesin gergaji khusus yang bekerja secara otomatik dengan bantuan mesin.
Mesin-mesin gergaji memiliki konstruksi yang beragam sesuai dengan ukuran, bentuk dan jenis material benda kerja yang akan dipotong. Adapun klasifikasi mesin-mesin gergaji yang terdapat digunakan adalah sebagai berikut:
a Mesin gergaji bolak-balik (Hacksaw-Machine)
Mesin gergaji ini umumnya memiliki pisau gergaji dengan panjang antara 300 mm sampai 900 mm dengan ketebalan 1,25 mm sampai 3 mm dengan jumlah gigi rata-rata antara 1 sampai 6 gigi iper inchi dengan material HSS. Karena gerakkan yang bolak-balik, maka waktu yang digunakan untuk memotong adalah 50%.
b Mesin gergaji piringan (Circular Saw)
Diameter piringan gergaji dapat mencapai 200 sampai 400 mm dengan ketebalan 0,5 mm dengan ketelitian gerigi pada keliling piringan memiliki ketinggian antara 0,25 mm sampai 0,50 mm. pada proses penggergajian ini selalu digunakan cairan pendingin. Toleransi yang dapat dicapai antara kurang lebih 0,5 mm sampai kurang lebih 1,5 mm.
c Mesin Gergaji pita (Band Saw)
Mesin gergaji yang telah dijelaskan sebelumnya adalah gergaji untuk pemotong lurus. Dalam hal mesin gergaji pita memiliki keunikan yaitu mampu memotong dalam bentuk-bentuk tidak lurus atau lengkung yang tidak beraturan. Kecepatan pita gergajinya bervariasi antara 18 m/menit sampai 450 m/menit agar dapat memenuhi kecepatan potong dari berbagai jenis material benda kerja.
POWER TOOL
Mesin las
Mesin ini digunakan untuk menyambung/memutuskan besi.
Bubut merupakan suatu proses pemakanan benda kerja yang sayatannya dilakukan dengan cara memutar benda kerja kemudian dikenakan pada pahat yang digerakkan secara translasi sejajar dengan sumbu putar dari benda kerja. Gerakan putar dari benda kerja disebut gerak potong relatif dan gerakkan translasi dari pahat disebut gerak umpan (feeding).
Dengan mengatur perbandingan kecepatan rotasi benda kerja dan kecepatan translasi pahat maka akan diperoleh berbagai macam ulir dengan ukuran kisar yang berbeda. Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengna jalan menukar roda gigi translasi (change gears) yang menghubungkan poros spindel dengan poros ulir (lead screw).
Roda gigi penukar disediakan secara khusus untuk memenuhi keperluan pembuatan ulir. Jumlah gigi pada masing-masing roda gigi penukar bervariasi besarnya mulai dari jumlah 15 sampai dengan jumlah gigi maksimum 127. roda gigi penukar dengan jumlah 127 mempunyai ke khususan karena digunakan untuk monversi dari ulir metrik ke ulir inchi.

Portgas D. Ace
Name : Portgas D. Ace
Epithet : "Fire Fist Ace" Original Anime/Manga, "Trace Heat Fist" (English Dub)
Age : 20
First Appearance : Manga Chapter #154, Anime Episode #91
Species : Human
Bounty : None
Ace has eaten the Devil Fruit Flare Flare Fruit (Mera Mera no Mi), a Logia or elemental type fruit, giving him pyrokinetic abilities and his reputation as "Fire Fist Ace" ("Trace Heatfist" in the English dub).
Currently, Ace is one of the two known pirates to ever escape arrest by the Marine captain Smoker (Chaser), the other escapee being Ace's younger brother Luffy. Ace and Smoker fought to a standstill in Alabasta. Since the pirate controls fire and the Marine Captain controls smoke, they practically cancel the other out. Ace is the only person in One Piece so far to fight evenly with Smoker -- Luffy was almost captured by Smoker in Roguetown and has since resorted to running away from the man instead of fighting.
Portgas D. AceHe also displays his immense power by destroying a handful of Baroque Works ships with ease. For some reason, Ace does not seem to mind his inability to swim, despite the risk that destroying the Billions' ships could have left him in the ocean.
In a recent Japanese fan poll, Ace ranked in as the tenth most popular character, making him the third most popular character outside the Straw Hat crew.
He left Fuchsia Village three years before Luffy, and he is a loyal crewman and commands the Second Division of Whitebeard, his captain.
In appearance, the two brothers are obviously related, despite the fact that Ace is more muscular than the rather lanky Luffy. He also sports rather childish freckles. He is apparently narcoleptic and therefore falls asleep on random occasions, making people wonder if he has dropped dead. As far as personality goes, Ace is much more intelligent, polite, and generally more bearable then his younger brother, which prompts the Straw Hat crew to question whether he is truly related to their bumbling captain. However, the brothers themselves are very close, Ace portraying typical good-big-brother behaviors such as asking the crew to keep an eye on his little brother.
Portgas D. AceRed-Haired Shanks for some reason has an interest in Ace and Blackbeard, and has sent a messenger to deliver a note to Whitebeard concerning this matter. Why Shanks has an interest in Ace and Blackbeard is unknown for now but Shanks is currently travelling to speak to Whitebeard personally about the matter. As of yet there have been no references at all to any relationship between Shanks and Ace despite the fact he spent almost a year in Luffy and Ace's hometown.
It is yet to be explained why his surname is not the same as Luffy's, but has led to speculation that the sign of kinship may be the Initial "D."
Ace left his hometown 3 years before Luffy when he was already very strong and skilled, apparently even more so than his younger brother Luffy.
Neither really on the Straw Hat's side nor against them for that matter, he was in Alabasta to search for his former crewmember Blackbeard, who used to be in Whitebeard's Crew. Blackbeard killed his crew and fled and now Ace is looking for him to kill him for his crimes.
Portgas D. AceAce was first seen (albeit for a brief period of time) on Drum Island and is later introduced in the Alabastan city of Nanohana; he was seen sleeping in the Spicebean restaurant. Later during the Jaya arc, Ace hopped in Buggy the Clown's ship for food and promised to show him the way to Luffy.
Ace was also given a mini-arc in the chapter titles of the manga where he infiltrates a Marine ship to deliver a letter to the parents of a milk maiden who saved his life. The mini series takes place some time before the current storyline as when it was published, he was with Buggy and his crew.

Yugioh
Yugi Moto
Yugi, much unlike his anime counterpart, is portrayed as a jerk character quite often. He holds a grudge against anyone who does wrong to him (As shown after Weevil throws Exodia into the ocean and Joey for throwing a piece of his puzzle). He constantly taunts Joey. (Not too different from the anime.) He has problems with Yami being the main character, saying that he gets everything and Yugi himself gets nothing. While there isn't much to say, he does hate Bakura. During one part, he can't decide who to root for during Kaiba's duel with Pegasus, due to the fact that he cheated. He also doesn't consider having Yami fight for him, at one point yelling at his friends (and Yami) for saying that Yugi cheats; letting Yami fight for him. He also can't tell whether he's a main character and doesn't agree that having "Yugi" in the tile name (Yu-gi-oh!, as it's often spelled) makes him the main character. He is often annoyed by the fact that he hasn't hit puberty and is short. He also develops a grudge against Tea after she tells him she prefers Yami. He also frequently threatens his grandpa. As shown in episode 41, he talks to his cards when he is alone.
The credits in the Yugioh Abridged Movie states he hit puberty at age 24, and still lives with his grandpa
[edit] Yami Yugi
Unlike his counterpart of the original series, Yami Yugi is rude and childish. Like Yugi, he tends to be sarcastic and disbelieving of the plot lines of the episodes. He often uses Egyptian terms for surprised exclamations ("Holy Ra", "Sweet Mother Of Osiris!", "You Son Of A Sphinx!", "Holy Mumra!", "Tell it to Anubis!") He has been referred to as Atem, Yami, Nosferatu, Pharaoh, The Artist Formerly Known as Pharaoh, Yugi's Sexy Alter Ego, and Dan Green throughout the series.
There are occasions where he is stated to be gay. In the episode with the Gay Clown, he says that 'If you're a ghost, then I'm straight!'. Also in Episode 23, he asks to spend time in front of the mirror to apply makeup, to which Yugi responds that he is "such a slut". He has also defended his ambiguous sexuality in Episode 2 when he thought Pegasus was saying they have something in common by being pedophiles.
Despite Téa's feelings for him, he displays little interest in her (even calling her a whore on occasion). However, after Téa admits to finding brainwashing people fun, Yami agrees, saying they have more in common than he thought. In Episode 36, Tea seems to arouse Yami when she's a brainwashed Steve.
A common running gag is that, regardless of being the main duelist of the series, he sees Duel Monsters as a card game that shouldn't be taken so seriously and also mocks the strange plays he made during Duelist Kingdom, claiming to cheat.
Although nobody knows his real name, everyone seems to know he's a Pharaoh. In the Fake series end, he states his real name to be Dan Green (Yugi and Yami's voice actor in the actual series). LittleKuriboh still uses the name Dan Green in a couple of short videos using a stuffed doll of Yami.
In Episode 40, he showed his true uncaring side by attempting to kill Bakura with Slifer the Executive Producer. He asked Bakura "Any last words before Slifer toasts your ass?", to which Bakura replied "I want my mummy." Yami said that would do, then proceeded to attack him.
[edit] Joey "Steve" Wheeler
Joey is the male personification of a "dumb blonde". In other words, the parody makes him out to be incredibly stupid. For example, while playing Duel Monsters with Yugi in Bakura’s flashback in Episode 11, he exclaimed "Checkmate! I sunk your battleship!" Despite this, however, he seems to be very able at building good decks. In episode 2, Joey’s deck was so good, Yugi decided to steal it and told him that it was worthless. In Episode 17, he even defeated Bandit Keith by copying his "in America" stunt by playing Copycat. He also apparently hates blonde people (ironic given the fact that he himself is blonde), and he doesn't seem to realize when people are insulting him. He reveals in the first episode that he has a Brooklyn accent, which he considers inappropriate.
Another significant difference is that Joey bears no compassion towards his sister. This is shown as early as Episode 3, when he receives a video from Serenity about her blindness, but is more upset that it wasn't from Pegasus to take his soul. Also, though he entered the Duelist Kingdom tournament in order to win the prize money; unlike the original, however, he wants the money for himself (and at one point having a monologue to her about "winning the prize money for speaking lessons, so she'll learn how to talk good, like what I do!"), rather than to fund the operation for Serenity and spends most of it forgetting she's alive or blowing off her condition. In Episode 14, when reminded about his sister, he figured he could just use the money to buy a new one. This was debunked rather comically in Episode 19 when he mimicked Kaiba: "Screw my sister, I have money!" In Episode 25, it seems that Joey is excited that his sister is going to be able to see again. In reply, Tristan asks if Joey spent the prize money from Duelist Kingdom on her operation. Joey stated, "Nah. My mom's paying for the operation. I spent the prize money on children's trading cards." Though he does show some compassion towards her in Episode 27 by promising not to let bad things happen to her, when the operation fails, he goes and steals her trading cards.
After his recent defeat from Kaiba, Joey has begun to have some "erotic dreams" about Kaiba in which he himself wears a dog suit, something that he actually seems to enjoy. As noted in the credits of the Abridged Movie, he eventually came to terms with his furriness and makes regular appearances at Anthrocon.
Among his gags is the constant "Nyeah!" sound he exclaims when shocked, startled, in pain, etc., but apparently he can't hear himself saying it, as Joey has no idea what Bakura was talking about when he asked him in episode 40. In episode 28, he began using the catchphrase "Brooklyn Rage" to show his anger, but Yami tells him that it will never be a popular catchphrase and tells him to stop. It is known that Joey's 4Kids VA Wayne Grayson likes the phrase and has repeated it at various anime conventions. In episode 31 Joey claimed he had "rage of the Brooklyn variety" putting a new spin on the Brooklyn rage catchphrase.
In Episode 12, it is also revealed that he is apparently a fan of both Firefly and Serenity, a TV show by Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series) and its subsequent movie continuation. It is known that Abigail (Safty on Youtube), LittleKuriboh's wife, is a fan of the show. The fact that when Yugi reminds him of his love of Serenity, which Joey took to mean Joss Whedon's movie and not his sister, also highlights his disregard for his sister.
It is vaguely implied that he actually caused the death of 'Tristan Taylor's voice' at the end of episode 8. Whilst he explains that he was "with Tristan's voice when he passed away", he looks himself like he has seen better days, and also gives a somewhat fantastic explanation that Tristan's voice died after running with scissors while drunk, and in the 'Reconstruction' of the event, he reacts to Tristan's voice's death with an obviously nonchalant "Oh no, he's dead."
In Cr@psule Monsters, Joey doesn't seem to remember anything that he and the rest of the gang had encountered before then, not even Mai Valentine. He also tries to claim they're not ripping off Pokemon even though he's riding on Baby Dragon and comparing it to Charizard.
In the Other Abridged Movie, Joey develops a passion for getting into fights with other people, claiming to be much more satisfying than card games (clearly a reference to his Shadow Game series counterpart, who was a rebellious man that always got into fights and showed great strength at them). He also calls his fighting style Brooklyn Karate, names his fighting moves like "Surprise Buttsex" (grabbing his opponents from the back) and Joey Punch, although Surprise Buttsex is also a way to show suggestive affection (Yami Yugi claims that Buttsex with him is never a surprise).
Ever since he defeated Weevil in episode 31, Joey claims he's going to pick off all the minor season one characters in the Battle City Tournament one by one claiming that's how he rolls (a reference to how most of his opponents in Battle City are minor season one characters). He even goes as far as wanting to duel Kaiba, calling him a minor season one character.
In episode 34, Joey is in a censored fight with Marik's henchmen and ends up getting captured. He claims, in this episode, to love 4 Kids fight sequences because you can be as violent as you want as long as no one is watching. During his imprisonment he was fooled into signing a "Name Change" contract that legally changed his name to Steve. He is then mind-controlled by Marik.
In episode 38, Joey admits he has fallen in love with Mai's breasts, though he adds that "They're about as real as a 3-dollar bill."
He does, in fact, care slightly for Bakura, as seen in episode 40, as he is disgusted when Yami almost kills Bakura and then blames it on Marik, stating that he'll tell everyone what Yami did, all of which he says in an outraged tone. He is then interrupted by Yami, who says that he has tickets to go see Hannah Montana. Joey points out that this is a lie just as Duke Devlin and Tristan tackle him, the latter stealing Joey's pants. As heard, "Tristan! Gimme back my pants!" Yami then says it "works every time". As seen above, Yami really doesn't give a damn about Bakura.
[edit] Téa "Steve" Gardner
Like her show counterpart, Téa seems to be very into the ideals of friendship, though doesn't blab about them as often (when she does, though, it seems to annoy everyone, especially Yami). She is a lot crueler than on the regular Yu-Gi-Oh, criticizing Joey for having no chance of winning Duelist Kingdom as he is a comedic sidekick character in episode 5 (though she seems to dislike Bakura and Tristan more, wanting to ditch them in episode 18 and then telling Joey they can't let Tristan breed in episode 22).
She is obviously in love with Yugi (Yami), and in many occasions have acted very jealous when other people "flirt" with him. However in the Abridged Movie Trailer, she admitted she was only using Yugi to get to Yami Yugi, but in the film she blatantly comes onto Yugi on multiple occasions, and seems to be genuine about it. She officially admits to loving Yami in episode 21, and since then, Yugi has been much less friendly to her, calling Téa "Jezebel" in episode 21 and "slut" in episode 22, where she also was fawning over Duke Devlin for most of the episode. She fawned over Marik in a similar fashion in Episode 34 and 39, saying Marik would fit "perfectly between my thighs... I mean our circle of friends". In that episode she also gave Duke Devlin a spanking which seems to imply her character is getting kinkier as the show is going on.
She's also a kleptomaniac, having attempted to steal her friends' wallets on two separate occasions, including the marker used in episode 1 (and also wanted to snoop through Pegasus' room in episode 19). Among others, she has a Happy Feet penguin, a Sailor Moon, Bubbles, and Jigglypuff cards in her deck. Thrice, she has compared the plot line (Episodes 9, 19 and the Abridged Movie) to bad fanfics. Despite her hatred for all Yu-Gi-Oh related fanfics, it's revealed that in Episode 23 she writes Harry Potter fanfics and is a Harry/Hedwig-shipper.
She despises Mai Valentine, likely due to her liking Yugi, despite the fact that Tea likes Yami. Among others, she has referred to Mai as "Mai Skankentine", and "Skankity Slut Slut". When Mai tried flirting with Yugi in one episode, Tea responded by saying "Back off bitch, he's mine" in a demonic voice.
Due to the fact LittleKuriboh is male, Téa's voice sounds high-pitched and slightly strangled; however this also creates a humorous effect.
Her friendship speeches apparently have started to have a brainwashing effect on people unfortunate enough to get caught in one, as shown in episode 25 when she got Johnny Steps caught in one for a couple of hours, he left saying "must... go... get... friends" in a monotonic voice. She also boasts that friendship is the most powerful force in the world, even stronger than Chuck Norris, to which Joey responded, "Blasphemy!". She seems to enjoy the effects of her speeches and cannot resist the urge to speak one. Tea also admits to being a total spaz which allows her to be really good at DDR (though her life goal is to become a table dancer in New York, something she may have done after the events of the Abridged Movie). In the second episode of Cr@psule Monsters, she nicknames her monster "Friendly McFrienderson III."
In the Abridged Movie, Téa is regarded with contempt; when she attempts to jump into the Pyramid of Light to be with Yugi, Pegasus tells Mokuba and Solomon to "just let her jump". When she appears in front of Yugi, Joey and Tristan, they sarcastically remark "Oh, great," and in a similar fashion, "Oh, no" when she falls. Anubis even describes her as the most annoying character in Yu-Gi-Oh and plans to kill her to do the fans a favor.
In Cr@psule Monsters, Téa is the only character who seems to remember everything about the past events in the series, whereas everyone else has forgotten about every other character, the Duelist Kingdom tournament and even Duel Monsters itself, except for Yugi, who remembers everything but the card game. Tristan claims that she's living too much in the past in the beginning of the second Cr@psule episode and seems to have finally stopped referencing the card game. She and Tristan both believed in the special candy Alex Brisbane mentioned and somehow acquired monsters used to fight other creatures. ("Friendly's" power seems mainly to just be healing people with friendship/magical powers).
[edit] Tristan Taylor
Like Joey, he provides much of the comedy in the series, mostly due to his clogged sounding voice, a fact that he remarks in the first episode (in Episode 2, Yami states that Tristan is voiced by Barney the Dinosaur). For Episode 8 and the first half of Episode 9, he was given a new voice, similar to what happened in the original series; however this new voice was apparently killed by Bakura's "evil side" in Episode 9, and the old one was revived (Yami stated that he did it because the old voice was much easier to make fun of than the new one). He also claims on five separate occasions that his voice gives him "super-strength", once while fighting Kemo (who then claims his hair lets him defy gravity), once in a cave while being chased by a giant 'boulder', once when assaulting one of Pegasus' guards while wearing a suit of armor, once while fighting a zombie, and once while fighting Duke Devlin (then tripping and falling over the edge of the blimp). In one occasion he claimed that his voice "knows kung-fu" when knocking out Bakura in episode 18 with a karate chop. In episode 15 it's revealed Kemo's hair is Tristan's father, and it has been mentioned Tristan's true strength is in his hair (in a synopsis for one of the Abridged episodes). The parody portrays Tristan as childish and sometimes downright stupid, to the point where no one takes him seriously. For example, he was the only one who believed Kaiba's ghost was real in Episode 7. Another running gag with him is the several complaints about being a minor character and trying to have an adventure while the major characters are sleeping (episode 16).
Another running gag is his surprised exclamation of "Holy (censored) on a (censored) sandwich!", first started in Episode 6. It has since been reused and added upon twice to include "with (censored) on top" in Episode 16 and "and a side helping of (censored)" in Episode 20. However, it was only stated in its first incarnation in the Abridged Movie. Yami Bakura said this line also in Episode 40.
Tristan also loves Joey's sister Serenity. At the end of episode 3 Joey mentions his sister and Tristan says "If she's going blind, I might actually have a chance with her." He has called her "darling", "jailbait", and "fine ass" on many occasions, and in the Serenity commentary special tried many ways to get her on a date with him (including changing the comments to say that Serenity should date him, and even threatens to kill the president in order to impress Serenity). Despite not knowing what sex is, Tristan does want to sleep with Serenity (as mentioned in episode 25), although he has also shown a bit of attraction to Téa in that regard (in episode 15 he mentions she should take off her clothes and in 16 states the only way they can survive is if they have sex. He also claims they did it when acquiring their personal monsters in Cr@psule monsters two, going as far as to call his Pikachu-like creature "Tristan Jr."). Yugi and Téa bullied Tristan for loving Serenity. Tristan however did not seem to understand that they had known it all the time and decides to kill them all (which he still hasn't done, since the two are still alive).
Episode 8 is dedicated to the memory of "Tristan Taylor's voice" (who allegedly died after running with scissors while drunk, according to Joey).
In Cr*psule Monsters, Tristan is oblivious to the fact there is a Duel Monsters card game, or anything or anyone else the gang had encountered before then. He also made the first direct Pokemon reference in Episode 2 which made him and Téa get attacked by a Kraken (though despite about to die he claimed the spin-off was still better then Yu-Gi-Oh GX).
Tristan somewhat predicted the game plot of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's as he stated "Because in the future, card games will be played on motorbikes"; which Yugi thought was ridiculous. It is interesting to note that the second voice actor for Tristan in the real series is the same voice actor for Yusei Fudo, the main character of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. In general, Tristan seems to be the most aware of the series' weaknesses and true nature. He made an interesting prediction in Episode 21 when he suggests that the characters "exist in a fictional universe created by some Japanese guy who likes card games", which Téa believes to be the dumbest thing he has ever said. Also, in The Abridged Movie, when the gang is being attacked by a mob angry about the show's quality, Tristan admits that the show "does kinda suck." In addition, in Episode 9, when the episode ends with a still frame, Tristan responds, "Oh no! The animation budget ran out!"
Apparently, Tristan is a Christian. In Episode 9, when Joey is resurrected with Monster Reborn, Tristan compares this act to the believed acts of Jesus. In the Christmas Special, when Yugi says Christmas is all about card games, Tristan responds that he thought it was about Jesus. Yugi dismisses this, saying that Tristan says "the darndest things".
Tristan tends to get movies/novels mixed up, he mistaken Lord of the Flies for The Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars for Star Trek.
Tristan has also been shown to have the ability to break necks with his mind (Episode 31).
He apparently has two imaginary friends, Zack and Cody, from the Disney series The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and The Suite Life on Deck
In Episode 40, he is led to believe the Battle Ship is in space, and believes some monsters are aliens. He also claims in this episode that he was abducted by aliens as a child (which Tea says explains so much and so little at the same time).
It is also apparent that Tristan is extremely convinced that Duke Devlin is a witch.
edit Antagonists
[edit] Bakura/Yami Bakura (Florence)
Bakura's parents originally wanted to name him Florence. Yami Bakura says that the reason he's evil may stem from that and them continually making him wear women's clothes.
His father discovered the Millennium Ring while searching for blue hair dye. He fitted it with a gaydar and gave it to Bakura. Tristan mentioned that Yami Bakura's ring is so evil, that if Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger got married and had a baby, the ring would be the baby. Bakura's use of the gaydar has led other characters to believe he his gay. Bakura denies being gay, but simply British. Yami Bakura on the other hand claims to be gay rather than British, enjoys cross-dressing and desires a sex-change operation.
At the beginning of Duelist Kingdom, Bakura stalked the gang in an attempt to become a main character. Most main characters don't recognize him and claim to barely know him.
Bakura asks everyone to show their favorite cards. He pulls out a card with the picture of Sephiroth, implying he's evil. According to Yami Bakura, he wants to turn the show into his own series, "Zorc & Pals".
Bakura's British nationality is often exaggerated and joked about, with many characters teasing him over it. Bakura once attempted to sound more American to keep from being bullied as much.
From Episodes 28-30, Bakura would die in a different way each time.
Bakura faked a case of "Wanker's Cramp," described as "the most deadly of British diseases," as part of one of Marik's evil plans. He is sometimes portrayed as being physically attracted to Marik.
It isn't revealed until Episode 40 that Bakura's first name is Ryo.
Bakura was left in a coma after his second Duel with Yugi. Yugi and his friends actually wanted to land the blimp to get Bakura to safety, but Kaiba refused it.
In Marik's Evil Council Of Doom and Marik's Evil Council Of Doom 2, he has been called "Fluffy", a Human Furbie, and "Kitty", as a reference to his fluffy white hair.
[edit] Maximillion Pegasus
In Kaiba's own words, "Pegasus is ruthless. Camp, yet ruthless". This description is accurate - from his eccentric style of overdress to his foppish, borderline-effeminate style of speech to his incredibly pretty-boy looks (Duke commented in episode 22 that he wanted to be as masculine as Pegasus when stating how pretty he looked, and Pegasus disagreed with Marik who called himself the girliest male Yu-Gi-Oh character). Like this, Pegasus fits the analysis perfectly. He has a habit of declaring everything "fabulous," and he also seems to have a liking for the Spice Girls (Croquet complains about having to see the film Spice World over and over again). He also enjoys sponge baths. It is at first hinted that Pegasus is gay, due to Bakura's gaydar pointing toward his castle. In episode 16, however, he remarks that he "can't have people thinking [he's] straight", for reasons unknown, and in episode 18 it was revealed that Croquet used to be in a relationship with another henchman. LittleKuriboh later confirmed that the gaydar was pointing to Croquet, not Pegasus, who is indeed straight.
Like in the original series, Pegasus originally had a wife named Cecilia and used Duelist Kingdom as part of his plan to resurrect her. The reason she is not alive, however, is because she apparently has an odd habit of exploding in front of Pegasus. Cecilia is the second most beautiful person he had ever laid his eyes on (Pegasus himself being the first). According to his notes, Pegasus wanted to use Kaiba Corp.'s technology and the Millennium Items to bring her back (Téa noting fanfics make more sense than that) and being more "confused" than evil in the Marik's Evil Council of Doom short.
In episode 19, after his defeat at the hands of Yugi, he loses a shadow game to Yami Bakura, which involved "Ancient Egyptian Laser Beams." Yami Bakura then proceeds to extract his Millennium Eye, although he runs into trouble as he ends up pulling the wrong eye out. Pegasus is last seen being carried by Croquet, who claims that Pegasus is feeling under the weather, although Yugi believes that he is dead (even though he is alive in the anime series and is shown later in the Abridged Movie) and Tristan even adds, "He died as he lived, draped in the arms of another man," possibly not convinced on Pegasus' sexuality. Because of Yami's LittleKuriboh impostors, Pegasus will never be able to watch the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged series again.
Pegasus was mentioned once again by Shadi in Episode 41. He was seeking to exploit Egypt's third-world country status, and came dangerously close to breaking the fourth wall doing it. Shadi showed him the Pharaoh's tomb which he was as happy as "woman after being given shiny new cage to sleep in" as said by Shadi. He made this into a children's card game. Croquet reported that everybody involved with making the cards died, even "Chad from accounting". He made the cards himself, saying it was like "stealing from the Egyptian Gods' Deviant Art account". That night he had a dream where Shadi said if the Egyptian God cards fall in the wrong hands the fourth wall will be destroyed. He then hid the cards.
In the Abridged Movie, Pegasus acts more camp and gay then before, even going far as flirting with Kaiba and asking to make love with him. LittleKuriboh said that he does this in an attempt to psych Kaiba out. Apparently he likes Priscilla: Queen of the Desert and that his favorite dream is starring in it. Even his snoring is girly, he says "Ooooh" when doing it.
In the second Council of Doom, Pegasus begins to show more of his sexual ambiguity by applying make-up, including eyeliner. He also appears to be a pedophile as he wants to show Rebecca his "funny bunny".
[edit] "Bandit" Keith Steve Howard
Bandit Keith is obsessed with America. Throughout his appearances, he will finish almost every sentence with the words "In America", usually after a brief pause, and makes references to America or being American (though he did utter that phrase once in the actual dub). His favorite movie is Pearl Harbor. He used to hang around with Bonz, Sid and Zygor, before they blasphemed against Armageddon and other Michael Bay movies. He also believes that Hulk Hogan is the greatest American hero of all time.
He tried to get Joey out of the Duelist Kingdom tournament by stealing his entry card, however Mai gives Joey her card. He is later defeated by Joey, who used the Copycat card to copy Bandit Keith's catch phrase. Keith then snaps and is carried out of the tournament, singing the Star Spangled Banner. When he returned to confront Pegasus, Pegasus had a trap door open conveniently placed under Keith's feet, a maneuver Pegasus claims he learned from Excel Saga. Bandit Keith is last seen in Duelist Kingdom screaming as he fell into the sea, pausing only for a second to say "...in America" before hitting the water.
He appears once more in episode 23, stealing Yugi's Millennium Puzzle and challenging him to a card game under Marik's control. Marik chose Bandit Keith since Americans are very easy to brainwash, making Keith think he was the President. After failing to obtain the Millennium Puzzle, Marik punishes him with the French national anthem, as France (according to Keith) is the exact opposite of America. During this torture Bandit Keith reveals that he is actually from Canada. After escaping the warehouse he set on fire under Marik's control, he then returns back to his home (in Canada).
[edit] Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood
Rex and Weevil appeared several times in Season 1. They're an obvious parody of Beavis and Butt-head (partially noting the fact that the usual Beavis and Butt-head intro is shown at the beginning of episode 4). Weevil is Beavis (the more hyperactive one who transformed into Cornholio in episode 4) and Rex is Butt-head (the more calm and marginally more intelligent of the two). He also tends to mislead/insult Weevil a lot as seen in their comment special and when watching Silent Hill. Both tend to laugh stupidly at regular intervals, as well as try to make sexual innuendos out of everything they or someone else says (i.e. "You said 'region'!"). All in all, they're both incredibly idiotic, which, considering how unintelligent they are in the dub, only adds to the parody's humour. Weevil also repeats the word "fire!" in various episodes, a reference to Beavis' pyromania and the fact that all uses of the word "fire" were eventually banned on Beavis and Butt-head. It's later revealed that Weevil somehow saved Kaiba from The Salesman. Rex apparently has a very short memory span, as he claims not to remember that Joey won his Red-Eyes from him.
According to Marik's Evil Council of Doom, Weevil enjoys Furbies and according to Yugi Gives An Apology, Raptor is one of characters people want to see (which irritates Bakura who was thinking he might get more screen time).
They have appeared in their own videos in which they watch Silent Hill in a manner that parodies Mystery Science Theater 3000.
[edit] The Big 5
The Big 5 compose of the top 5 bosses at Kaiba's company. They have tried to kill Kaiba multiple times but have always failed. The Big Five seem to like standing up dramatically at the same time as a form of celebration. They also were described as 4Kids executives in episode 37. They hate Disney.
[edit] Marik "Sebastian" Ishtar III
Thus far, he has appeared in the Yu-Gi-Oh Christmas Carol (as Yami Marik); Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series Episode 23; the Marik's Evil Council of Doom videos; episodes 28, 30, 31, 32, 33-37, and 39-41 ; The 2008 Christmas Special; and was mentioned in Cr*psule Monsters.Yami Marik speaks in a sneering modulated voice that sounds very similar to the Monarch from Venture Bros, and he appears to be able to control minds (or at least believes himself able to), and calls Kaiba "Binky Boy" and "Mind slave" (even though he calls one of his minions Binky Boy as well). This derives from the TV show, Pinky and the Brain as when the henchman asks, "Gee Brain, what are we going to do tomorrow night?", he responds "The same thing we do every night, Binky Boy." He also has a habit of being totally unable to hide his true intentions from people, such as asking Seto Kaiba to come to him so he can cut him. He tries to hide this by saying he wanted to hug him instead. Kaiba declined this offer by saying "I'm not a very huggy person". His favorite hobby in his free time is to attempt to take over the world and playing with his Steve Squad. In episode 34, he accidentally says what he is secretly planning out loud in front of Joey and Tea.
In "Marik's Evil Council of Doom", Marik is the only villain willing to follow the show's plot line and defeat Yugi with a children's card game. Also, whenever Marik says the word fuck, instead of bleeping it out, a voice yells "EFF!" instead, similar to Perfect Hair Forever (it is implied that this occurs only to the word fuck; in episode 36, when he tried to say the word "bullshit", the regular bleeping is used to censor it). Marik also believes there are no female characters in Yu-Gi-Oh and only girly looking men (he believes himself to be the girliest), and appears to have a relationship with Bakura, mentioned in the Serenity commentary special. Though despite many gay references to himself he once offered to strip for the fangirls on one occasion
In the Zorc and Pals episode Marik claims to be Zorc's wife.
He introduces himself to Yami in episode 28, where he claims that he is in charge of the most feared anime organization known to man, the Rare Hunters (though Yami believes that honor goes to the Samurai Pizza Cats). In the episode, he claims that his goal is to steal Yami's screen time and to destroy him "a little", though Yami originally believed that Marik was out to kill him and steal his Millennium Puzzle.
Marik's Millennium Rod, like in the original series, has the power to control whoever he wants, like forcing them to break dance against their will, though in the second "Marik's Evil Council of Doom", it is revealed it only works on people with the name Steve. So far, he controlled Bandit Keith (Who's middle name is Steve); the Rare Hunter who stole Joey's Red Eyes Black Dragon (revealed to be named Steve); Arkana (whose full name is revealed to be Steve Arkana); and Strings (Who is known as "Steve the Mime", "the most evil Steve in all of Stevedom", according to Marik). He also claims to have "an army of celebrity Steves" at his disposal, including "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Steve Jobs, Steve Guttenberg and Steve Buscemi. His latest mind slave was Steve The Mime, someone Marik called pretty "f-ed up" for having piercing tattoos. He lost when Yugi was able to take advantage of a glaring flaw in the Duel Monsters rulebook and Yugi took Slifer the Executive Producer as Marik promised the Rare Hunters would take his friends as he road into the city on a motorbike (something that not even the band Boston would help look cool according to LittleKuriboh). Later on he met Bakura, who claimed to have found in him the gay signal he was feeling lately. Marik replies that he likes women, but Bakura does not believe him and ironically pointed out that he dresses like one, adding that Marik looks as masucline as a Square Enix character (famous for making very effeminate male characters), mocking him by asking to call him "Basch from Dalmasca". After a talk they decided to work together to defeat Yugi and possibly kill him (Since Marik himself said his plan was evil but not well thought out) and also share beauty tips. In the following episode he tries to trick Joey and Téa like in the original series by helping Bakura and pretending to be a nice guy, but he fails. First he can't think of a fake name and out of random thinking he says Malik (A reference to an alternate romanizeation of his name) instead of Namu like in the official anime. After that he says accidentally out loud all his evil plans. When Joey points it out, he decides to take them by force with the Steves. Later on the pier, where Joey is trapped he is tricked into signing a contract in exchange for his freedom, but the contract was a legal paper that changed his name from Joey Wheeler to "Steve" Wheeler so Marik is able to control him. In episode 39, he conte mplates a fake name of "Malik Blishtar", and is annoyed when Odion (who everyone believes to be Marik) insults himself (Thus insulting Marik instead). When Joey claimed Marik (really Odion) was an asshole, Marik said "He might just be misunderstood." Odion then said "No I'm definitely an asshole", to which Marik replied "Not helping, Odion!" He also continues to yell his evil plans out loud, and tells Joey that he will kill him last (Joey takes this as a joke). In episode 40 he wants people to ignore him.
At the end of episode 27, the first time one actually sees Marik talking without his hood, he mentions ordering 'Pornographic comic books'. It shows a crudely drawn Marik holding a book with the word "Porno" on it. He says, "This pornography is really quite good..." and then is attacked by Dr. Octogonapus (from the Lazer Collection created by Dom Fera, which was referenced previously in the episode).
In episode 41, it was revealed that he has an ice-cube fetish.
In episode 42 it is revealed that he was seemingly evil right after being born, promptly shouting out "Excewwent!" and laughing evilly. He grew up to hate live-action Disney movies which he'd been forced to watch as part of the Tombkeepers' initiation ritual. Following the ritual he begins to exhibit insanity, for instance when Odion asks how he feels, he retorts "I've been tortured by my own father. I'm forced to live the rest of my life underground and I was forced to watch the worst Jamie-Lee Curtis movie since Christmas with the Cranks. How the f*ck do you think I feel Binky-Boy?!" He seemingly inherited the penchant to calling people Binky-Boy after his father who once called Odian that.
In the 2008 Holiday Special, he held another meeting of his Evil Council but only Yami Bakura shows up. The pharaoh sent them a Christmas present, which turned out to be a time bomb, which kills them.
In a movie rant about "X-Men Origins: Wolverine", he claims he's "fairly good at playing hopscotch", but it just could be a joke, saying how one person's power is to use Kung-Fu and that he's a mutant.
[edit] Odion
Odion first appeared for a short time by the end of episode 23, making a gag with the classic "Pinky and the Brain" dialogue, taking Pinky's voice and personality. This voice was not used in later appearances, instead his personality was changed to a "plain and one dimensional" character (as stated by Marik), being emotionless and serious all the time and by following Marik's instructions too literally, even causing Marik to get mad at him. He normally says only, "Yes, Master Marik." He also likes Gummi Bears and when Marik threatened him to get rid of his collection was the only moment when Odion actually answered Marik. In episode 42, he gets his own flashback explaining some of his and Marik's history (mostly Marik) during which he didn't think the tombkeepers initiation was so bad and questions why watching disney films is a part of it; afterwards he comments, "Jeez, even in my own flashbacks I'm a minor character!"
Odion apparently thinks of Marik as the worst boss ever, and he's trying his best to drag Marik's name in the dirt when he's impersonating him. He agrees to what Joey says about Marik being an asshole, in which Marik yells at Odion in front of everyone. He seems to enjoy being scolded.
[edit] Melvin
The true villain of the second season, Melvin is Marik's imaginary friend, created by him as a child to deal with years of abuse and live-action Disney movies. Yugi is initially skeptical of Melvin's butting into the show, until Melvin proves himself more evil than Marik by revealing that it was he who banned Team Four Star the creators of Dragonball Z the Abriged Series. Whether his name is actually Melvin is unknown as Yami simply calls him this when expressing how annoyed he is at the sudden plot twist.
Possibly as an exaggeration of Yami Marik's insanity, Melvin constantly offers to hug people but in truth just wants to stab them (possibly also a joke that in the dub the Millennium Rod's concealed dagger is edited out). Also, no matter what people say, he frequently claims he is controlling a person's mind.
[edit] 4Kids Entertainment
One of the main themes that the series makes fun of. Throughout the series the characters believe 4Kids to be the censor of all things good. One thing that they censor are guns, which cause some characters to think they are using magical invisible guns. Some of the characters such as Marik believe it to be the cruelest and most ruthless organization known to man. In Cr@psule Monsters they want to capture Yami for usage in a "crappy spin-off show". In episode 37, Marik talks about a prophecy that refers to 4Kids and that they will cause the end of the world. At the end of the episode, it is shown that 4Kids is aware of this prophecy, and that the downfall of Youtube.com is somehow crucial to their plans...
In episode 40, when Yami Bakura says Disney, it is cut to 4Kids. They react to Bakura saying "the forbidden word" (Disney) by thinking about canceling Yu-Gi-Oh. They then say that there were specific instructions from their boss (believed to be Noah Kaiba) to not cancel it until the end of Season 2. Everybody stands up and says "Down with Disney! All hail 4Kids!" This may have a relation to the prophecy in Episode 37, for Disney being a media giant and the part where 4Kids takes over the world.
The five main executives are The Big Five, usually shadowed.
edit Other characters
[edit] Seto Kaiba
As in the original series, Kaiba is sarcastic, offensive, and all around not very nice, and this was just for Episode 1 (In Episode 24 he does admit he's an asshole, just like his past self). He evidently likes to "screw the rules" due to his large fortune (one of his most popular phrases from the series is "Screw the rules, I have money!"). He is unable or unwilling to help the protagonists, such as calling an ambulance in Episode 1 or fighting Anubis in the Abridged Movie. He explains this by "being obscenely rich, and can't be expected to do it [himself]".
The spot in his heart for Mokuba seems to be gone, for whenever his brother talks he replies "Shut up Mokuba". However, this might be due more to his abridged personality more than anything, as Kaiba never seems more annoyed then usual at the more irritating bits of his brother's antics. As in the original series, the card he wears is an oversized locket, with a picture of Mokuba inside. It seems that Kaiba has two motivations in life: money, and his little brother. But money does come first.
Also he admitted that he flags Youtube to compensate for small penis size, but this remark was most likely a jab from LittleKuriboh to the people who flagged his videos on Youtube, resulting in his ban.
He disappears for several episodes due the fact he was written out of the show, but returns to help Yugi defeat his "ghost" in Episode 7 (although unlike the original, he isn’t much help at all). He may also be addicted to drugs that affect his memory; in Episode 11 he thinks he used to have green hair when he first dueled Yugi (using clips from the first Japanese series. His catchphrase appears here as "Screw the rules, I have green hair!"). He also styles himself as a "l337 hax0r", apparently having learned all his hacking skills from watching old episodes of Star Trek(as his computer comments on his typing the same keys repeatedly). He also stated that the "Blue Screen of Death" was his mortal enemy in the same episode.
Abridged Kaiba also has an even more distinct obsession with dragons than his counterpart. He claims that, while he plays chess, the game bores him because it doesn't include expensive holograms or dragons. He was once even told by Yami that he has a dragon fetish. He also mentions having a hard on for technology. He also ranks Reign of Fire as one of his all-time disappointments in life. He is apparently easily impressed by giant rocks. He also holds the ability to frequently break the fourth wall without any explanation and does so more than most characters. He also disregards anything involving Yu-Gi-Oh GX! and is appalled by the idea that he only appears in 3 episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh GX! (said by Bakura to be one episode). He also is highly skeptical of Ishizu Ishtar's prediction that in 10 years during Yu-Gi-Oh! GX he will have opened a duelist academy and not have aged a day.
Also like in the series Kaiba seems to be against the magical powers some of the cast has. In episode 6 he thought his duel disks could defeat Yugi's magical powers and in 24 he mentions he's the most skeptical person on earth. He does seem more accepting of the magic then the actual Kaiba, even though he still believes Ishizu's powers to see the future are lame and full of crap.
Recently, Kaiba has attempted to play Duel Monsters with a training program (which was a parody of GLaDOS from Portal), claiming that actually learning how to play the game would help him defeat Yugi since, as a main character, he is immune to defeat. However, the training program claimed the game was so ridiculously complicated that it has decided to take Kaiba's policy and "screw the rules". Throughout episode 26, he has been advertising Kaiba Corp. products, specifically the new DUEL DISK SYSTEM, which is accompanied by a jingle and an echo. Through this episode, after he advertises products, he says the word, "Trademark." He has also announced the coming of the Battle City tournament, which will follow the real Duel Monsters rules, something which Yami believes is the first real plot twist in the series. Episode 26 ends with him losing a finger. He is terrified of Dark Zebra, and had Obelisk the Tormentor kill it for him but mentioned how Dark Zebra would haunt his nightmares forever. He is quick to have he finger replaced by a replica, he is also horrified to find out that Mokuba thinks he is a Pokemon and even Kaiba got confused about it when he called him Charmander. He has also created a harem of robot women so he can get them to fall in love with him only for him to later shun them with his cold heart. He has acknowledged that he is like the anime version of Scrooge McDuck, except less fluffy. He also reveals that he prefers window seats on all vehicles.
In the other Abridged Movie, he is shown spying Yugi with cameras installed all over Japan (Since he is rich he can never be too paranoid) in order to always be one step ahead, even in private moments like the shower (Yami is confused when Kaiba mentions that he won't be watching him shower). He starts a tournament to defeat Yugi again and to do so, he orders Kemo and an anime version of Ving Rhames to kidnap Gary and force him to enter. Before facing Yugi in the tournament, he defeats Rex Raptor who then goes to dye his hair and causes the announcer to become infatuated with him. During the duel against Yugi, he summons three Blue Eyes White Dragon in one turn again. When Yugi asks him in the same fashion as in the episode one about what he did, Kaiba tells him to stop asking about it. After losing, he decides to sue the people who made Eye of Judgment for the PlayStation 3 (stating that it's an obvious rip off of Duel Monsters) and asking where Mokuba is.
Lately, he's been informed by Mokuba in "Seto Kaiba's Real Father" that he has a real father via blackmail letter (with the writer demanding his share of KaibaCorp's money), but at the moment it has not been determined who it is. Some suggestions in the video have included the likes of Tony Stark from Iron Man, Brock from Pokemon, The King from the Legend of Zelda Phillips CD-i Games, King Dedede from the Kirby video games, HeavyDDR and Big Boss from Metal Gear.
Kaiba is also extremely misogynistic, having little to no regard for the female sex. He created a harem of female robots, but reveals it was only so he could "shun them with his cold indifference". Grandpa, Bakura, and even Kaiba's own computer have mentioned that he needs to get laid... big time. Also, when asked by Mokuba where babies come from, he impatiently answers "you buy them in a store, just like everything else."
Twice now Kaiba has had a boner (seemingly from technology, as he stated in episode 15). Once before riding on a helicopter to go find a god card and once while watching Bakura and Yami duel on the blimp. At the start of the duel, he says that he'll stand there and pretend he doesn't have a boner and later in the episode, doesn't care what the duelist do, as long as no-one looks at his crotch.
Kaiba has said that he never takes off his clothes stating that they made him look good. He also has a really embarrassing birthmark somewhere that's covered by his clothes.
Kaiba accidentally saw Anubis`s penis when he was grabbed on the head.
It has been stated that whenever Kaiba smiles a puppy dies. In Episode 42 he smiles twice and manages to kill 9101 puppies; killing 100 when Odion summons Mega Ultra Chicken and 9001 when Melvin informs the main characters that he got Team4star banned.
[edit] Mokuba Kaiba
According to Kaiba, Mokuba tends to be kidnapped on a weekly basis (a recent montage of these kidnappings brought the total up to 2,042). So frequent are his kidnappings, that Kaiba doesn't run to his rescue anymore, preferring to just walk briskly. To this end, he feels he should consider to put a leash on him. Most of the characters who know Mokuba just assume that seeing he’s been kidnapped so many times he’s just used to it, quite to the contrary (Mokuba: "It feels like I’m dying inside!"). Mokuba loves his brother very much but Kaiba doesn't seem to show the same affection (Younger Mokuba: I love you, big brother! / Younger Seto: kthx).
In Episode 21, upon encountering Princess Edena, he says that it is the most traumatizing event in his life. He apparently knows how to drive some vehicles and acts as Kaiba's chauffeur, but lacks skill. This was shown at the end of Episode 24 where he crashes Kaiba's limo and Episode 26 where his helicopter flying causes Kaiba to lose a finger. In Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Movie, Mokuba asks every one he meets "...Can I be in the movie too?" and they all reply "Shut up Mokuba!", even when that's not what he said. Mokuba also admits to being a fan of Zorc & Pals as well as SpongeBob SquarePants and is actually very fast when stealing things (something he feels his brother endorses). His absence in the "Other Abridged movie" is noted by Kaiba after Yugi beats him in a duel, possibly implying that he may have been kidnapped again. In episode 28 Kaiba's doctor, after running some tests, concluded that Mokuba is going through "Japanese puberty", in which Mokuba thinks he is a Pokémon but seems uncertain about which one as he is constantly changing his cry from Bulbasaur to Charmander to Mr Mime. In 'Who's That Mokémon?' Mokuba also had Buneary's cry and shown him with Buneary ears. By episode 29, he is back to normal, but Japanese puberty still transformed him. In Episode 40, Ghost Nappa, making a cameo from TeamFourStar's Dragonball Z Abridged, thought that he was a rare Shiny Pokemon, and vowed to catch him with his Master Ball. In episode 30, he replies to Yugi's Grandpa (who says to shut up)"No! You shut up!" Ironically; Tea and Solomon state how rude Mokuba was, even though several characters tell Mokuba to shut up countless times, and that everyone tells Grandpa to shut up in episode 30. He has also always wanted a pet rabbit but his brother never buys him one. Kaiba finally did buy him a scorpion even though he said he was going to buy Mokuba a tarantula. Kaiba also pointed out the reason Mokuba never had any friends in Episode 32 is because of they always need to be rescued which may be a reason he had bullies pick on Mokuba when he was younger in episode 29.
Mokuba is more independent in season 2 as he uses an "Epic Mokuba Maneuver" to stop the Roba brothers in episode 29, and he rescues himself from being kidnapped by Marik's Steve Squad which results for the first time in Seto actually being proud to call him his little brother.
He also thinks that babies come from a store just like everything else, a fact that his brother has been quick to confirm every time he's asked.
[edit] Solomon Muto
Yugi's grandfather owns the card shop he and Yugi live in, and suffers from bouts of senility, frequently forgetting where he is and what is going on. He apparently lives in the basement of his own card shop and is often treated quite badly by Yugi. He frequently ponders his own death, calling the people in the obituary 'lucky bastards'. Solomon's body however, simply refuses to die. To date, Solomon has survived multiple assaults (Episodes 1, Abridged Movie), having his soul sucked from his body and placed in a coma-like state for an extended period (Episodes 2 to 19), extended periods of dehydration and exposure (referenced in Episode 20), constant animosity from his own grandson and assorted friends, and a harpoon injury from Mako Tsunami (Episode 33). Solomon has fought back on occasion though. After claiming that "Santa" should go to hell for always giving him trading cards (when that's what Grandpa always gives him for Christmas), Solomon threatens Yugi that he'll kill him in his sleep, freaking out Yugi some.
In the past Solomon seems to have been a highly experienced "Egyptologist", duelist, and general adventurer type. In Cr@psule Monsters 2, he's alive and well, exploring somewhere between Japan and India (and definitely not the scenery from Duelist Kingdom in season 1). It could be assumed that his bouts of memory loss, eccentricity, and general stupidity may be attributed to one too many head wounds, some sort of exotic disease, or an Egyptian curse.
Solomon has similarly colored eyes as Yugi, is short, and in Cr@psule Monsters 2, his hair seems to naturally spike up in an absurd fashion. In the second Christmas Special it is hinted that he is most likely Yugi's paternal grandfather.
Solomon seems to have a forbiden love with the Black Luster Soldier poster.
[edit] Mai Valentine
She has a voice of a drag queen and cleavage that appears to be the focus of much of the male members of the cast, especially Joey Wheeler; even she seems to be obsessed with them, as she cries out "My breasts are in danger!" when she is attacked. Her large breasts also seem to have the power to confuse others, similar to the Jedi mind trick from Star Wars, this was used on Kemo. Mai and Téa also have a running rivalry, since currently they are the only two female cast members that are regularly shown. She apparently has terrible handwriting. In the Duelist Kingdom, she was apearently "Raped" by PaniK.
In Episode 17, she is mocked for being a terrible duelist as she had lost to Joey and Panik and surrendered to Téa. This is cemented when she surrenders to Yugi, even though it is clear that her Harpie's Pet Dragon could easily destroy Yugi's Kuriboh. This became a running gag as Mai admitted to be surprised Kaiba let her in the Battle City Tournament in episode 28 even though she never won any card games. Joey even claimed she slept with Kaiba when she got 4 locator cards in episode 31. In one episode Mai claims that Yugi is quite cute, to which Téa replied in a deep, demonic voice "Back off bitch, he's mine,". After Yugi lost to Kaiba, Mai had heard that Yugi had lost his will to live, and apparently rushed to the site. She proclaimed that she "just loves broken men". Mai flirted with Yugi in Episode 21 (after Yugi found out that Téa only likes Yami and not him) in a The Graduate reference.
In Episode 38, she says she has a love interest with Joey Wheeler, but Joey is just in love with her breasts.
In Season 2 Mai had not been seen since Episode 26 until Kaiba announces the start of the Battle City Tournament. "Did somebody say 'old characters'?". Mai confirms she is competing in the tournament although she questions why Kaiba would let her in even though she keeps losing.
Mai did not appear but once in the Abridged Movie, claiming "my breasts are too big for this movie." However, she does appear in the credits, saying that she posed for Playboy, and it was the "hottest selling issue ever."
There are many statements referring to her breasts and her flirtatious attitude, particularly from Joey, Tea, Yugi, Mai and the generic henchmen. Even Ghost Nappa from Dragon Ball Z Abridged appeared after the stinger of Episode 40 and asked what was up with almost everyone's hair (save Odion, Mai, Seto, and Mokuba) and he asked Mai what was up with her breasts.
In one episode of Season 2, Mai says something to Yugi, who does not hear her because he was "distracted by her chesticles."
[edit] Kemo
The most seen of Pegasus’s henchmen. Although he is known as "The Nameless Henchman" in the series, for writing purposes his original dubbed name is used. Kemo has a tendency to yell "Attention Duelists!" every time he starts a conversation, even if there’s only one other person with him or if he's not addressing duelists. When Kaiba asked why he does this, he replied angrily it's simply what he does.
Another of Kemo's traits is referring to his hair in some form or another, usually related to what he is actually doing. For example, in Episode 6, when attacking a duelist he shouts: "Attention Duelists! My hair is assaulting you!"and other things such as "My hair is being assaulted!" In the same episode, he also claimed that his hair gives him the power to defy gravity. And in another episode he told Kaiba that "My hair is definitely not leading you into a trap!" Kaiba then threatened to shave his hair off. Kemo then set an alarm and claimed "That's for threatening my hair!" His 'hair' has a crush on Mai Valentine.
Kemo has also apparently taken child-grabbing classes, and on occasion he refers to them, such as in Episode 13, he attempts to attack Kaiba, but Kaiba notices him, and stops the attack. Kemo then said that his child-grabbing classes were a waste of money. He is also the long lost father of Tristan due to the fact that they have a similar hair style as well as the fact that they both refer to their "hair" and "voice" as people.
According to LittleKuriboh's LiveJournal, he was emailed by one of the people running the UK tournament, asking him to come and announce the tournament, claiming they really needed someone capable of saying "Attention Duelists!".
After Pegasus's defeat, Kemo is then seen working for the Big Five in episode 21. However, he is written out of the show at the end of episode 21, where he called his mother (addressing her with "Attention Mother!") and asked to move in with her, saying "My hair is crying! I don't have anywhere else to go.".
He returns in Yu-Gi-Oh: The Other Abridged Movie, where he is once again using what he learned from his "child-grabbing" classes to kidnap Gary, only to be stopped by Joey, apparently arousing his hair. For reasons he himself doesn't really know, he's working for Kaiba instead of Pegasus and he lost his hair, though he still makes references to it. He also appears in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Opening of Episode 32 as Commander Worf, being attacked by the Borg and crying out about his hair.
In episode 35 he appears in the mass flash-backs, referencing his popularity with "Attention Duelists! My hair is an internet phenomenon!"
[edit] Serenity Wheeler
Serenity has a high pitched-sounding voice, similar to Guilmon from Digimon. In Episode 3, the doctors have spent so much time trying to figure out what was wrong with her voice, that they forgot to treat her eyesight.
In all the flashbacks, she gets called a "dumb broad" by Joey.
She sometimes thinks that Joey cares more about card games than her, and although she's right, she figured she "was just being silly".
Even though she loves her brother, she did feel a pang of hatred towards Joey after he told her he spent all the prize money on trading cards, saying that she would never forgive him.
While Tristan is in the hospital with her, Serenity didn't seem to realize that he was trying to seduce her. "Don't worry about me, I'm just extremely gullible and naive." She also believed all the lies he told her that she told Joey on the phone.
While Joey is having his first match she talks about being in love with Tristan as he is always there for her, only this goes out the window with Tristan coming in the room having gone to the toilet, after this she goes silent. She is also proposed to by Tristan over the Internet only for her to call him a "lonely-deranged freak". By the time of episode 34 she clearly appears to be sick of Tristan. She also had to deal with a kid who had a seizure and thought he was Ash from Pokemon in Episode 31, thinking that she was Misty. Serenity lied to him about having cancer to shut him up.
Serenity's biggest appearance in the Abridged series was in her own comment special. There, she needed people to help her read the comments (still blind with bandages covering her eyes), and shooed away Tristan and Yugi away when it suggested to her that they were trying to hit on her, although one of the comments stated that she ought to go out with Yugi. She hints at fancying Yami Bakura due to his "hot accent". But is disappointed to find that he had dinner plans with Marik.
Despite the fact the operation intended to heal her eyesight failed, in episode 34 it is revealed that her blindness was only going to be temporary, and she was pleased to learn the writers wanted her to become a main character. She removes her bandages and regains her eyesight in Episode 36, finally traveling with Yugi and his friends from that episode onwards.
[edit] Mako Tsunami
Mako doesn't appear too often in the series, but he's known for his willingness to let people eat his fish ("Don't worry my friends, there's plenty more where that came from.") and an odd attachment to the ocean, going as far as marrying it in episode 17. Also in episode 17, he denies losing to Yugi, claiming to have used his giant squid monster to swallow Yugi's Dark Magician, "like the end of Pirates of the Caribbean 2, except it was satisfying!". To Yugi and his friends, he is a "Freaky Fish Guy" as he tried to stop Yugi by lobbing his spear at him, which causes Mako to say "I am not a freaky fish guy!". In his interview in episode 17, his screen caption reads 'Local Fisherman/Freaky Fish Guy'. He later married the ocean.
Mako returned in Episode 28 to choke Weevil Underwood. This led to him explaining to Weevil that nobody should play in the ocean 'unless they wish to drown'. He also revealed that he and his wife, the ocean, have a mutual understanding which allows him to date other large bodies of water, but the ocean is his one true love. This led to Underwood say: "Dude, you scored with the ocean? What a freaky fish guy," which provoked Mako into strangling Weevil and threatening to murder his entire family for making such a remark.
In episode 33, it was revealed that he divorced the ocean and was now dating the Domino Aquarium. He blamed Joey for his failed marriage due to the fact that Joey called him a "freaky fish guy" who throws harpoons at people, prompting everyone he met afterward to point out such. After Joey realizes that Mako offers more than what other minor characters from season one have to give, he is also told he is not "a freaky fish guy" but "the freaky fish guy" while giving them a catchphrase, the two come to an understanding, prompting Mako to give his rarest card and locator cards to Joey (without even dueling). He also gets back together with the ocean.
Mako has an odd habit to lob harpoons at anyone. So far he has lobbed a harpoon at 3 people (including Yugi's Grandpa).
Mako Tsunami also made a cameo appearance in Naruto: The Abridged Series as Inari's step-father, allowing Inari to eat his fish just like in Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series, although he is quick to say that he learned his lesson and won't lob his spear like last time. Originally, Tazuna claimed that Mako was killed, but after Naruto proved that the story was fake (parodying Phoenix Wright), Tazuna said that he ran away because Inari's mother is a horrible wife.
[edit] Zombie Boy
First appeared in Episode 12 with his friends Sid and Zygor when they were spying on Yugi and his friends. They were helping Bandit Keith to lead the gang into a trap, in which Zombie Boy had to duel Joey in a graveyard themed duel arena. He was called a goth when he scared Joey for the first time. During the duel he appeared to be in the lead while Michael Jackson's Thriller was playing while devastating Joey's life points.
He revealed that he dropped out of zombie school which is later revealed to be the Cambridge School for Zombies and was taught by Bandit Keith to become a duelist. He doesn't say anything except "BRAINS", but it is subtitled to be normal dialogue, which might be how the other characters can understand him. (The mummies in The Abridged Movie also had the same voice). In episode 37 it is revealed that in fact he can talk, only saying the word "brains" because that was the only line he got on the script. He also talked in the 3rd anniversary video. When asked why he didn't say "brains" he responded that he "doesn't do that anymore." He's considered to have "the voice of a zombie angel" by Zygor.
He later appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom (wanting the free tacos Marik had promised, but later found out they were a lie), and tried to come up with an evil plan that involved eating peoples' brains, but was shot down by Yami Bakura before he could explain. During the evil role call, he made a reference to the "I like turtles" YouTube meme.
In Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, he thinks that Yami Bakura's favourite movie of all time is gross. Throughout the meeting, he was told by Marik to transcribe everything said. But Marik declared that he be fired for writing the word Brains repeatedly. Although Zombie Boy says he did transcribe what they said but was angry to be fired and decided to quit.
Zombie Boy returns in episode 37 apparently hiding in a graveyard were he, Sid and Zygor are stealing locator cards by dressing up as zombies (even though he already is one) and walking to anybody coming by very, very slowly. He gets into a duel with Yami Bakura and convinced that he will win because Bakura is not a main character, after Bakura took them to Silent Hill. Zombie Boy summons his Nemesis from the Resident Evil series only for the creature to fall in love with Bakura's monster (Pyramid Head). After this he surprisingly enough says he quits in English. Zombie Boy somewhat snaps and declares his making a stand (complete with an American flag behind him) about zombies no longer being a threat but before he can finish his speech Bakura shoots him in the head with a invisible gun.
[edit] Shadi
Thus far, he has appeared in Episode 19 and Episode 41. His voice and personality are based upon Borat. He frequently greets people with "Jagshamesh! My name-a Shadi!", and claims that in his home country of Egypt, "we no longer use slave to build pyramid. Now we make women do it instead! Is nice?". He is the keeper of the Millennium Items, and tells Pegasus in a flashback in Episode 19 that his chamber in which he keeps the Items is constantly invaded by Jewish people who are trying to steal them, and he gives Pegasus the Millennium Eye since he is not Jewish. He also perceives Yugi as being a Jew after sensing the theft of Pegasus' Eye by Yami Bakura. He probes Yugi's mind using his Millennium Key, and thinks if Yugi lived in Egypt, he would be stoned to death for keeping such an untidy soul-room. He has also never seen the movie Labyrinth (dance magic, dance), and is confused with the randomly placed staircases and alcoves and nearly killed on several occasions by various traps set in Yami Yugi's section of Yugi's mind. When Yugi saves him from the Dark Magician, he realizes that Yugi may be the 'chosen one,' proclaiming him to be "not as Jewish" as he first thought. He apologizes for 'screwing with his head' and leaves Yugi alone and disappears, uttering "Chenquieh" as a farewell. He also says "Wha wha whe wha" whenever he shows astonishment.
Shadi finally reappears in Episode 41, where he explains that he is the protector of the fourth wall (believing that if it falls that "man will become like the animal, animal will become like the dirt and dirt will become like the jew"), and tells Yugi about the creation of the Egyptian God cards. He also admits to Yugi that he is "-what you say?- kind of a dick."
[edit] Duke Devlin
Duke appeared in episode 22. His voice is based on Snake from "The Simpsons", and almost every time he is speaking onscreen "SexyBack" by Justin Timberlake plays in the background. Yugi says they can be friends if he gets rid of "that annoying theme music," to which Duke replied with "What theme music?", suggesting that he either can't hear the music or that the music has always followed him around so he thinks it's normal. He likes to talk about how sexy he is, and tries to convince people that Dungeon Dice Monsters is not like Duel Monsters, despite the similar rules and exact same monsters. When asked why it's different, he simply responds, "My game uses dice." In the end, everybody tells him that they hate his game (they consider it more boring than Duel Monsters).
Pegasus funds Dungeon Dice Monsters apparently because it would make his card game "look exciting by comparison". Tristan thinks he's a witch, having seen him perform magic tricks, and can be heard constantly shouting "Burn the witch!", a reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Duke reappears in episode 36, still having "SexyBack" play whenever he speaks, or is around. He saves Tristan and Serenity from a mob of Steves, throwing a dice at one, prompting him to say that it "barely hurt". Tristan leaves Serenity with him to beat the Steves up. He comes across Mai, who scolds him for not seeing the red light, to which he replies "I thought it was just because I am surrounded by hos", leaving Mai in awe. Tristan still refers to him as a witch at this point, asking him if he brought his broomstick with him while escaping the Steves. Men apparently propose to him all the time, (although Tristian claims that he was kidding). After reappearing in 36 Duke became part of Yugi's group of friends something he asked to be right before the start of season 2, even though he didn't fufill his promise of losing the sexyback music.
Apparently his hand has a habit of touching other people's butts, as in episode 40. It has been mentioned that Duke is the fourth Jonas brother, likely a joke at his expense due to the many fangirls he has. Duke also seems to break the fourth wall (like everyone else) such as in episode 41 when he panics at the concept of "dying in a show about f*cking card games"
[edit] Rebecca Hawkins
Rebecca wants Grandpa's Blue-Eyes White Dragon, not only because she thinks he stole it, but also so that she can sell it on eBay. Just like the original, she's a really good duelist (to which Joey replied, "That's impossible. Only grown-ups are allowed to play children’s card games!"). Also, just like the original, she talks to her teddy bear; however, in the Abridged Series, the teddy appears to be possessed by the devil, at one point saying, "Hail, Satan!" and "Your mother plays card games in hell!" (a reference to The Exorcist), as well as having the music from the film and from Psycho play near the end. She also listens to the "voices inside her head", implying that she may be mentally unstable, or also possessed. But overall her character is very similar to the original - at least in that point of the series - stubborn and hot tempered. At the end of episode 20, her grandfather claimed that Yugi could have won the duel and therefore won even though he actually surrendered, confusing her. Yugi gave her the card he won on Duelist Kingdom, saying he didn't want it. When she asks if she has become the King of Card Games due to obtaining the card, Yugi replies, "Hell no.".
In Marik's Evil Council 2, she is invited because of her teddy bear. There, she nicknames Yami Bakura "Kitty" which Marik begins using as well.
Unlike most other characters, she is not voiced by LittleKuriboh. Instead, she is voiced by LittleKuriboh's wife, Safty.
[edit] Ishizu Ishtar
Ishizu first appears in episode 24. She claims her Millennium Necklace gives her the power to predict the future and to break the fourth wall, despite the fact it is blatantly obvious every character has this power. She rather carelessly gets the Egyptian God Cards stolen from her. She also lends Obelisk the Tormentor to Kaiba without considering that he would just keep the card rather than giving it back. Kaiba finally decides that she's not good at predicting the future when she predicts that in ten years Kaiba will open a dueling school and look exactly the same as he does now. In episode 26, she explains to Yami about his destiny, apparently "spoiling all of season 2" in the process, but it's not enough to please Yami, who wanted a flashback. However, the flashbacks she shows him turn out to be nothing more than two moments in his life where Yami was crying for a nipple; as a baby and as the pharaoh during the Thief King's raid, although Ishizu admitted the latter was just her "screwing with him".
She also appears in Episode 32, claiming the giant rock is the only one that understands her and goes off and hides when she hears Bakura coming, not wanting to get involved in the actual plot. There might a be a possibility that she's gay, according to Bakura's gaydar until its batteries ran out.
In the Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged Third Anniversary Video, she and Espa Roba have a prediction war over whether or not Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged would be cancelled after LittleKuriboh finished Season 2, but she dismisses his prediction as a fruitless attempt at creating hype. One of the Roba brothers offers to sell Ishizu the baby.
[edit] Akhenaden
Was on the 'evil roll call' In Marik's Evil Council of Doom. Marik is unable to pronounce his name, so he decides that "Bob" is sufficient. Since Bob only mumbles incoherently, he's not taken seriously. For reasons unknown, Bob does not reappear in the second meeting of the evil council.
[edit] Zorc
First appeared in Episode 9 when Yami Bakura stated his intentions of turning Yu-Gi-Oh! into "Zorc & Pals". Zorc is obsessed with destroying the world (a laugh track plays every time he states this. He is aware of this, as he noted its absence in Marik's Evil Council of Doom). While this destructive nature is still present in his character, he is not as evil or cruel to others as in the original series. In Marik's Evil Council of Doom this point is proven as he actually talks and acts nicely towards the other villains present in the place (he even left a smiley face while saying hi to everybody in the spam messages in the CardGamesFTW account). He has an enormous dragon-esque being protruding from his crotch, which he reveals is his "willy". He and Yami Bakura live together and are the parents of an adopted daughter (most likely either Mai or Tea). Apparently in the Abridged Movie, Zorc managed to finally destroy the world. From there he went to Disney World, but didn't destroy it despite his original plan to do so, as he had a fun time there. Instead, he destroyed EuroDisney.
He also appeared for a short while on television in the Abridged Christmas Special and in Episode 17, he and his adopted daughter were suffering from a terminal disease, as one of the special Zorc and Pals episodes.
In Marik's Evil Council 2, when Rebecca and her teddy bear first appeared, he thinks the teddy bear is cute and wants to hug him (Which immediately caused the teddy bear to reply saying "Touch me and die, unclean one!")
In the Zorc and Pals bonus video (titled "The One with Confusing Circumstances") he is visited by his mother who wanted him to become a lawyer so he lies about it with the help of Bakura, making Zorc's mother believe he is Zorc's wife. In the conversation it is revealed that he is 5 million years old and he was married once, but he destroyed his wife (Though this may have been a lie). At the end of the episode Bakura gets tired of the lie and tells that he is not Zorc's wife, in that moment Marik appears and claims to be Zorc's wife, surprising everybody. Upon this, Zorc is reminded that he did in fact get married, but forgot all about it.
After some time, Bakura decided to leave Zorc because he was tired of seeing Zorc blow up the world countless times. Zorc promptly takes his anger out on the studio audience (not that it really matters because they were all already dead).
In Episode 37, Bakura claims that Zorc destroyed the world over 12 times now. He finally stops destroying the world and destroys the Studio Audience. And Bakura decides to cancel Zorc & Pals. That could possibly be the final episode of Zorc & Pals. ("God, we are so canceled.")
[edit] Alex Brisbane
Alex Brisbane only appears in Cr*psule Monsters. He tries to convince the others that he is not a villain by saying multiple times that he is not a villain. He tricks the gang to step on the capsule monsters map by telling them that there is candy in the map. He only appears in the "previously on Cr@p" segment of Cr@psule Monsters 2, giving away some dull exposition.
[edit] Dartz
Dartz hates Marik for not inviting him and his 'evil motorcycle-riding henchmen' to the Evil Council of Doom and decides to hold his own evil council to be 'much better' serving pizza rather than tacos. In his revenge he planned on spamming Marik's YouTube account, which apparently did not work. In his second attempt, he tried the "is your refrigerator running?" prank call, which spectacularly failed as Marik told him he didn't even have a refrigerator (Although Marik hadn't realized it was a joke until Dartz hung up).
He also hates the habit of his henchmen for riding motorbikes, because when they do it they don't pay attention to him.
Dartz and the others also apparently play Dungeons & Dragons according to the spam comments on Marik's Youtube account.
[edit] Alister
Appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2. He thinks that "Marik is so mean" and was happy to hear that Dartz wanted to set up his own evil council. After Dartz failed to successfully prank call Marik, he tells him '"We can't hear you boss! We're too busy riding our motorcycles!"' He speaks in an extremely high and childish voice similar to the Squeaky Voiced Teen from The Simpsons.
[edit] Valon
Valon has thus far appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, in which he was deemed "a dork" to attend the meeting. He speaks entirely in complete non-sequiters composed of stereotypical Australian slang in the first episode of the meeting. In the second he is only seen riding his motorbike with Alister and Rafael.
[edit] Rafael
Raphael has appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, in which he was deemed "a dork" to attend the meeting. The only thing he ever says is "ZUG ZUG!", a phrase used by Orc grunts in Blizzard's Warcraft series. Once again he says that phrase just after Dartz curses his henchmen, as Raphael was also riding his motorbike
Yugi, much unlike his anime counterpart, is portrayed as a jerk character quite often. He holds a grudge against anyone who does wrong to him (As shown after Weevil throws Exodia into the ocean and Joey for throwing a piece of his puzzle). He constantly taunts Joey. (Not too different from the anime.) He has problems with Yami being the main character, saying that he gets everything and Yugi himself gets nothing. While there isn't much to say, he does hate Bakura. During one part, he can't decide who to root for during Kaiba's duel with Pegasus, due to the fact that he cheated. He also doesn't consider having Yami fight for him, at one point yelling at his friends (and Yami) for saying that Yugi cheats; letting Yami fight for him. He also can't tell whether he's a main character and doesn't agree that having "Yugi" in the tile name (Yu-gi-oh!, as it's often spelled) makes him the main character. He is often annoyed by the fact that he hasn't hit puberty and is short. He also develops a grudge against Tea after she tells him she prefers Yami. He also frequently threatens his grandpa. As shown in episode 41, he talks to his cards when he is alone.
The credits in the Yugioh Abridged Movie states he hit puberty at age 24, and still lives with his grandpa
[edit] Yami Yugi
Unlike his counterpart of the original series, Yami Yugi is rude and childish. Like Yugi, he tends to be sarcastic and disbelieving of the plot lines of the episodes. He often uses Egyptian terms for surprised exclamations ("Holy Ra", "Sweet Mother Of Osiris!", "You Son Of A Sphinx!", "Holy Mumra!", "Tell it to Anubis!") He has been referred to as Atem, Yami, Nosferatu, Pharaoh, The Artist Formerly Known as Pharaoh, Yugi's Sexy Alter Ego, and Dan Green throughout the series.
There are occasions where he is stated to be gay. In the episode with the Gay Clown, he says that 'If you're a ghost, then I'm straight!'. Also in Episode 23, he asks to spend time in front of the mirror to apply makeup, to which Yugi responds that he is "such a slut". He has also defended his ambiguous sexuality in Episode 2 when he thought Pegasus was saying they have something in common by being pedophiles.
Despite Téa's feelings for him, he displays little interest in her (even calling her a whore on occasion). However, after Téa admits to finding brainwashing people fun, Yami agrees, saying they have more in common than he thought. In Episode 36, Tea seems to arouse Yami when she's a brainwashed Steve.
A common running gag is that, regardless of being the main duelist of the series, he sees Duel Monsters as a card game that shouldn't be taken so seriously and also mocks the strange plays he made during Duelist Kingdom, claiming to cheat.
Although nobody knows his real name, everyone seems to know he's a Pharaoh. In the Fake series end, he states his real name to be Dan Green (Yugi and Yami's voice actor in the actual series). LittleKuriboh still uses the name Dan Green in a couple of short videos using a stuffed doll of Yami.
In Episode 40, he showed his true uncaring side by attempting to kill Bakura with Slifer the Executive Producer. He asked Bakura "Any last words before Slifer toasts your ass?", to which Bakura replied "I want my mummy." Yami said that would do, then proceeded to attack him.
[edit] Joey "Steve" Wheeler
Joey is the male personification of a "dumb blonde". In other words, the parody makes him out to be incredibly stupid. For example, while playing Duel Monsters with Yugi in Bakura’s flashback in Episode 11, he exclaimed "Checkmate! I sunk your battleship!" Despite this, however, he seems to be very able at building good decks. In episode 2, Joey’s deck was so good, Yugi decided to steal it and told him that it was worthless. In Episode 17, he even defeated Bandit Keith by copying his "in America" stunt by playing Copycat. He also apparently hates blonde people (ironic given the fact that he himself is blonde), and he doesn't seem to realize when people are insulting him. He reveals in the first episode that he has a Brooklyn accent, which he considers inappropriate.
Another significant difference is that Joey bears no compassion towards his sister. This is shown as early as Episode 3, when he receives a video from Serenity about her blindness, but is more upset that it wasn't from Pegasus to take his soul. Also, though he entered the Duelist Kingdom tournament in order to win the prize money; unlike the original, however, he wants the money for himself (and at one point having a monologue to her about "winning the prize money for speaking lessons, so she'll learn how to talk good, like what I do!"), rather than to fund the operation for Serenity and spends most of it forgetting she's alive or blowing off her condition. In Episode 14, when reminded about his sister, he figured he could just use the money to buy a new one. This was debunked rather comically in Episode 19 when he mimicked Kaiba: "Screw my sister, I have money!" In Episode 25, it seems that Joey is excited that his sister is going to be able to see again. In reply, Tristan asks if Joey spent the prize money from Duelist Kingdom on her operation. Joey stated, "Nah. My mom's paying for the operation. I spent the prize money on children's trading cards." Though he does show some compassion towards her in Episode 27 by promising not to let bad things happen to her, when the operation fails, he goes and steals her trading cards.
After his recent defeat from Kaiba, Joey has begun to have some "erotic dreams" about Kaiba in which he himself wears a dog suit, something that he actually seems to enjoy. As noted in the credits of the Abridged Movie, he eventually came to terms with his furriness and makes regular appearances at Anthrocon.
Among his gags is the constant "Nyeah!" sound he exclaims when shocked, startled, in pain, etc., but apparently he can't hear himself saying it, as Joey has no idea what Bakura was talking about when he asked him in episode 40. In episode 28, he began using the catchphrase "Brooklyn Rage" to show his anger, but Yami tells him that it will never be a popular catchphrase and tells him to stop. It is known that Joey's 4Kids VA Wayne Grayson likes the phrase and has repeated it at various anime conventions. In episode 31 Joey claimed he had "rage of the Brooklyn variety" putting a new spin on the Brooklyn rage catchphrase.
In Episode 12, it is also revealed that he is apparently a fan of both Firefly and Serenity, a TV show by Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series) and its subsequent movie continuation. It is known that Abigail (Safty on Youtube), LittleKuriboh's wife, is a fan of the show. The fact that when Yugi reminds him of his love of Serenity, which Joey took to mean Joss Whedon's movie and not his sister, also highlights his disregard for his sister.
It is vaguely implied that he actually caused the death of 'Tristan Taylor's voice' at the end of episode 8. Whilst he explains that he was "with Tristan's voice when he passed away", he looks himself like he has seen better days, and also gives a somewhat fantastic explanation that Tristan's voice died after running with scissors while drunk, and in the 'Reconstruction' of the event, he reacts to Tristan's voice's death with an obviously nonchalant "Oh no, he's dead."
In Cr@psule Monsters, Joey doesn't seem to remember anything that he and the rest of the gang had encountered before then, not even Mai Valentine. He also tries to claim they're not ripping off Pokemon even though he's riding on Baby Dragon and comparing it to Charizard.
In the Other Abridged Movie, Joey develops a passion for getting into fights with other people, claiming to be much more satisfying than card games (clearly a reference to his Shadow Game series counterpart, who was a rebellious man that always got into fights and showed great strength at them). He also calls his fighting style Brooklyn Karate, names his fighting moves like "Surprise Buttsex" (grabbing his opponents from the back) and Joey Punch, although Surprise Buttsex is also a way to show suggestive affection (Yami Yugi claims that Buttsex with him is never a surprise).
Ever since he defeated Weevil in episode 31, Joey claims he's going to pick off all the minor season one characters in the Battle City Tournament one by one claiming that's how he rolls (a reference to how most of his opponents in Battle City are minor season one characters). He even goes as far as wanting to duel Kaiba, calling him a minor season one character.
In episode 34, Joey is in a censored fight with Marik's henchmen and ends up getting captured. He claims, in this episode, to love 4 Kids fight sequences because you can be as violent as you want as long as no one is watching. During his imprisonment he was fooled into signing a "Name Change" contract that legally changed his name to Steve. He is then mind-controlled by Marik.
In episode 38, Joey admits he has fallen in love with Mai's breasts, though he adds that "They're about as real as a 3-dollar bill."
He does, in fact, care slightly for Bakura, as seen in episode 40, as he is disgusted when Yami almost kills Bakura and then blames it on Marik, stating that he'll tell everyone what Yami did, all of which he says in an outraged tone. He is then interrupted by Yami, who says that he has tickets to go see Hannah Montana. Joey points out that this is a lie just as Duke Devlin and Tristan tackle him, the latter stealing Joey's pants. As heard, "Tristan! Gimme back my pants!" Yami then says it "works every time". As seen above, Yami really doesn't give a damn about Bakura.
[edit] Téa "Steve" Gardner
Like her show counterpart, Téa seems to be very into the ideals of friendship, though doesn't blab about them as often (when she does, though, it seems to annoy everyone, especially Yami). She is a lot crueler than on the regular Yu-Gi-Oh, criticizing Joey for having no chance of winning Duelist Kingdom as he is a comedic sidekick character in episode 5 (though she seems to dislike Bakura and Tristan more, wanting to ditch them in episode 18 and then telling Joey they can't let Tristan breed in episode 22).
She is obviously in love with Yugi (Yami), and in many occasions have acted very jealous when other people "flirt" with him. However in the Abridged Movie Trailer, she admitted she was only using Yugi to get to Yami Yugi, but in the film she blatantly comes onto Yugi on multiple occasions, and seems to be genuine about it. She officially admits to loving Yami in episode 21, and since then, Yugi has been much less friendly to her, calling Téa "Jezebel" in episode 21 and "slut" in episode 22, where she also was fawning over Duke Devlin for most of the episode. She fawned over Marik in a similar fashion in Episode 34 and 39, saying Marik would fit "perfectly between my thighs... I mean our circle of friends". In that episode she also gave Duke Devlin a spanking which seems to imply her character is getting kinkier as the show is going on.
She's also a kleptomaniac, having attempted to steal her friends' wallets on two separate occasions, including the marker used in episode 1 (and also wanted to snoop through Pegasus' room in episode 19). Among others, she has a Happy Feet penguin, a Sailor Moon, Bubbles, and Jigglypuff cards in her deck. Thrice, she has compared the plot line (Episodes 9, 19 and the Abridged Movie) to bad fanfics. Despite her hatred for all Yu-Gi-Oh related fanfics, it's revealed that in Episode 23 she writes Harry Potter fanfics and is a Harry/Hedwig-shipper.
She despises Mai Valentine, likely due to her liking Yugi, despite the fact that Tea likes Yami. Among others, she has referred to Mai as "Mai Skankentine", and "Skankity Slut Slut". When Mai tried flirting with Yugi in one episode, Tea responded by saying "Back off bitch, he's mine" in a demonic voice.
Due to the fact LittleKuriboh is male, Téa's voice sounds high-pitched and slightly strangled; however this also creates a humorous effect.
Her friendship speeches apparently have started to have a brainwashing effect on people unfortunate enough to get caught in one, as shown in episode 25 when she got Johnny Steps caught in one for a couple of hours, he left saying "must... go... get... friends" in a monotonic voice. She also boasts that friendship is the most powerful force in the world, even stronger than Chuck Norris, to which Joey responded, "Blasphemy!". She seems to enjoy the effects of her speeches and cannot resist the urge to speak one. Tea also admits to being a total spaz which allows her to be really good at DDR (though her life goal is to become a table dancer in New York, something she may have done after the events of the Abridged Movie). In the second episode of Cr@psule Monsters, she nicknames her monster "Friendly McFrienderson III."
In the Abridged Movie, Téa is regarded with contempt; when she attempts to jump into the Pyramid of Light to be with Yugi, Pegasus tells Mokuba and Solomon to "just let her jump". When she appears in front of Yugi, Joey and Tristan, they sarcastically remark "Oh, great," and in a similar fashion, "Oh, no" when she falls. Anubis even describes her as the most annoying character in Yu-Gi-Oh and plans to kill her to do the fans a favor.
In Cr@psule Monsters, Téa is the only character who seems to remember everything about the past events in the series, whereas everyone else has forgotten about every other character, the Duelist Kingdom tournament and even Duel Monsters itself, except for Yugi, who remembers everything but the card game. Tristan claims that she's living too much in the past in the beginning of the second Cr@psule episode and seems to have finally stopped referencing the card game. She and Tristan both believed in the special candy Alex Brisbane mentioned and somehow acquired monsters used to fight other creatures. ("Friendly's" power seems mainly to just be healing people with friendship/magical powers).
[edit] Tristan Taylor
Like Joey, he provides much of the comedy in the series, mostly due to his clogged sounding voice, a fact that he remarks in the first episode (in Episode 2, Yami states that Tristan is voiced by Barney the Dinosaur). For Episode 8 and the first half of Episode 9, he was given a new voice, similar to what happened in the original series; however this new voice was apparently killed by Bakura's "evil side" in Episode 9, and the old one was revived (Yami stated that he did it because the old voice was much easier to make fun of than the new one). He also claims on five separate occasions that his voice gives him "super-strength", once while fighting Kemo (who then claims his hair lets him defy gravity), once in a cave while being chased by a giant 'boulder', once when assaulting one of Pegasus' guards while wearing a suit of armor, once while fighting a zombie, and once while fighting Duke Devlin (then tripping and falling over the edge of the blimp). In one occasion he claimed that his voice "knows kung-fu" when knocking out Bakura in episode 18 with a karate chop. In episode 15 it's revealed Kemo's hair is Tristan's father, and it has been mentioned Tristan's true strength is in his hair (in a synopsis for one of the Abridged episodes). The parody portrays Tristan as childish and sometimes downright stupid, to the point where no one takes him seriously. For example, he was the only one who believed Kaiba's ghost was real in Episode 7. Another running gag with him is the several complaints about being a minor character and trying to have an adventure while the major characters are sleeping (episode 16).
Another running gag is his surprised exclamation of "Holy (censored) on a (censored) sandwich!", first started in Episode 6. It has since been reused and added upon twice to include "with (censored) on top" in Episode 16 and "and a side helping of (censored)" in Episode 20. However, it was only stated in its first incarnation in the Abridged Movie. Yami Bakura said this line also in Episode 40.
Tristan also loves Joey's sister Serenity. At the end of episode 3 Joey mentions his sister and Tristan says "If she's going blind, I might actually have a chance with her." He has called her "darling", "jailbait", and "fine ass" on many occasions, and in the Serenity commentary special tried many ways to get her on a date with him (including changing the comments to say that Serenity should date him, and even threatens to kill the president in order to impress Serenity). Despite not knowing what sex is, Tristan does want to sleep with Serenity (as mentioned in episode 25), although he has also shown a bit of attraction to Téa in that regard (in episode 15 he mentions she should take off her clothes and in 16 states the only way they can survive is if they have sex. He also claims they did it when acquiring their personal monsters in Cr@psule monsters two, going as far as to call his Pikachu-like creature "Tristan Jr."). Yugi and Téa bullied Tristan for loving Serenity. Tristan however did not seem to understand that they had known it all the time and decides to kill them all (which he still hasn't done, since the two are still alive).
Episode 8 is dedicated to the memory of "Tristan Taylor's voice" (who allegedly died after running with scissors while drunk, according to Joey).
In Cr*psule Monsters, Tristan is oblivious to the fact there is a Duel Monsters card game, or anything or anyone else the gang had encountered before then. He also made the first direct Pokemon reference in Episode 2 which made him and Téa get attacked by a Kraken (though despite about to die he claimed the spin-off was still better then Yu-Gi-Oh GX).
Tristan somewhat predicted the game plot of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's as he stated "Because in the future, card games will be played on motorbikes"; which Yugi thought was ridiculous. It is interesting to note that the second voice actor for Tristan in the real series is the same voice actor for Yusei Fudo, the main character of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. In general, Tristan seems to be the most aware of the series' weaknesses and true nature. He made an interesting prediction in Episode 21 when he suggests that the characters "exist in a fictional universe created by some Japanese guy who likes card games", which Téa believes to be the dumbest thing he has ever said. Also, in The Abridged Movie, when the gang is being attacked by a mob angry about the show's quality, Tristan admits that the show "does kinda suck." In addition, in Episode 9, when the episode ends with a still frame, Tristan responds, "Oh no! The animation budget ran out!"
Apparently, Tristan is a Christian. In Episode 9, when Joey is resurrected with Monster Reborn, Tristan compares this act to the believed acts of Jesus. In the Christmas Special, when Yugi says Christmas is all about card games, Tristan responds that he thought it was about Jesus. Yugi dismisses this, saying that Tristan says "the darndest things".
Tristan tends to get movies/novels mixed up, he mistaken Lord of the Flies for The Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars for Star Trek.
Tristan has also been shown to have the ability to break necks with his mind (Episode 31).
He apparently has two imaginary friends, Zack and Cody, from the Disney series The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and The Suite Life on Deck
In Episode 40, he is led to believe the Battle Ship is in space, and believes some monsters are aliens. He also claims in this episode that he was abducted by aliens as a child (which Tea says explains so much and so little at the same time).
It is also apparent that Tristan is extremely convinced that Duke Devlin is a witch.
edit Antagonists
[edit] Bakura/Yami Bakura (Florence)
Bakura's parents originally wanted to name him Florence. Yami Bakura says that the reason he's evil may stem from that and them continually making him wear women's clothes.
His father discovered the Millennium Ring while searching for blue hair dye. He fitted it with a gaydar and gave it to Bakura. Tristan mentioned that Yami Bakura's ring is so evil, that if Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger got married and had a baby, the ring would be the baby. Bakura's use of the gaydar has led other characters to believe he his gay. Bakura denies being gay, but simply British. Yami Bakura on the other hand claims to be gay rather than British, enjoys cross-dressing and desires a sex-change operation.
At the beginning of Duelist Kingdom, Bakura stalked the gang in an attempt to become a main character. Most main characters don't recognize him and claim to barely know him.
Bakura asks everyone to show their favorite cards. He pulls out a card with the picture of Sephiroth, implying he's evil. According to Yami Bakura, he wants to turn the show into his own series, "Zorc & Pals".
Bakura's British nationality is often exaggerated and joked about, with many characters teasing him over it. Bakura once attempted to sound more American to keep from being bullied as much.
From Episodes 28-30, Bakura would die in a different way each time.
Bakura faked a case of "Wanker's Cramp," described as "the most deadly of British diseases," as part of one of Marik's evil plans. He is sometimes portrayed as being physically attracted to Marik.
It isn't revealed until Episode 40 that Bakura's first name is Ryo.
Bakura was left in a coma after his second Duel with Yugi. Yugi and his friends actually wanted to land the blimp to get Bakura to safety, but Kaiba refused it.
In Marik's Evil Council Of Doom and Marik's Evil Council Of Doom 2, he has been called "Fluffy", a Human Furbie, and "Kitty", as a reference to his fluffy white hair.
[edit] Maximillion Pegasus
In Kaiba's own words, "Pegasus is ruthless. Camp, yet ruthless". This description is accurate - from his eccentric style of overdress to his foppish, borderline-effeminate style of speech to his incredibly pretty-boy looks (Duke commented in episode 22 that he wanted to be as masculine as Pegasus when stating how pretty he looked, and Pegasus disagreed with Marik who called himself the girliest male Yu-Gi-Oh character). Like this, Pegasus fits the analysis perfectly. He has a habit of declaring everything "fabulous," and he also seems to have a liking for the Spice Girls (Croquet complains about having to see the film Spice World over and over again). He also enjoys sponge baths. It is at first hinted that Pegasus is gay, due to Bakura's gaydar pointing toward his castle. In episode 16, however, he remarks that he "can't have people thinking [he's] straight", for reasons unknown, and in episode 18 it was revealed that Croquet used to be in a relationship with another henchman. LittleKuriboh later confirmed that the gaydar was pointing to Croquet, not Pegasus, who is indeed straight.
Like in the original series, Pegasus originally had a wife named Cecilia and used Duelist Kingdom as part of his plan to resurrect her. The reason she is not alive, however, is because she apparently has an odd habit of exploding in front of Pegasus. Cecilia is the second most beautiful person he had ever laid his eyes on (Pegasus himself being the first). According to his notes, Pegasus wanted to use Kaiba Corp.'s technology and the Millennium Items to bring her back (Téa noting fanfics make more sense than that) and being more "confused" than evil in the Marik's Evil Council of Doom short.
In episode 19, after his defeat at the hands of Yugi, he loses a shadow game to Yami Bakura, which involved "Ancient Egyptian Laser Beams." Yami Bakura then proceeds to extract his Millennium Eye, although he runs into trouble as he ends up pulling the wrong eye out. Pegasus is last seen being carried by Croquet, who claims that Pegasus is feeling under the weather, although Yugi believes that he is dead (even though he is alive in the anime series and is shown later in the Abridged Movie) and Tristan even adds, "He died as he lived, draped in the arms of another man," possibly not convinced on Pegasus' sexuality. Because of Yami's LittleKuriboh impostors, Pegasus will never be able to watch the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged series again.
Pegasus was mentioned once again by Shadi in Episode 41. He was seeking to exploit Egypt's third-world country status, and came dangerously close to breaking the fourth wall doing it. Shadi showed him the Pharaoh's tomb which he was as happy as "woman after being given shiny new cage to sleep in" as said by Shadi. He made this into a children's card game. Croquet reported that everybody involved with making the cards died, even "Chad from accounting". He made the cards himself, saying it was like "stealing from the Egyptian Gods' Deviant Art account". That night he had a dream where Shadi said if the Egyptian God cards fall in the wrong hands the fourth wall will be destroyed. He then hid the cards.
In the Abridged Movie, Pegasus acts more camp and gay then before, even going far as flirting with Kaiba and asking to make love with him. LittleKuriboh said that he does this in an attempt to psych Kaiba out. Apparently he likes Priscilla: Queen of the Desert and that his favorite dream is starring in it. Even his snoring is girly, he says "Ooooh" when doing it.
In the second Council of Doom, Pegasus begins to show more of his sexual ambiguity by applying make-up, including eyeliner. He also appears to be a pedophile as he wants to show Rebecca his "funny bunny".
[edit] "Bandit" Keith Steve Howard
Bandit Keith is obsessed with America. Throughout his appearances, he will finish almost every sentence with the words "In America", usually after a brief pause, and makes references to America or being American (though he did utter that phrase once in the actual dub). His favorite movie is Pearl Harbor. He used to hang around with Bonz, Sid and Zygor, before they blasphemed against Armageddon and other Michael Bay movies. He also believes that Hulk Hogan is the greatest American hero of all time.
He tried to get Joey out of the Duelist Kingdom tournament by stealing his entry card, however Mai gives Joey her card. He is later defeated by Joey, who used the Copycat card to copy Bandit Keith's catch phrase. Keith then snaps and is carried out of the tournament, singing the Star Spangled Banner. When he returned to confront Pegasus, Pegasus had a trap door open conveniently placed under Keith's feet, a maneuver Pegasus claims he learned from Excel Saga. Bandit Keith is last seen in Duelist Kingdom screaming as he fell into the sea, pausing only for a second to say "...in America" before hitting the water.
He appears once more in episode 23, stealing Yugi's Millennium Puzzle and challenging him to a card game under Marik's control. Marik chose Bandit Keith since Americans are very easy to brainwash, making Keith think he was the President. After failing to obtain the Millennium Puzzle, Marik punishes him with the French national anthem, as France (according to Keith) is the exact opposite of America. During this torture Bandit Keith reveals that he is actually from Canada. After escaping the warehouse he set on fire under Marik's control, he then returns back to his home (in Canada).
[edit] Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood
Rex and Weevil appeared several times in Season 1. They're an obvious parody of Beavis and Butt-head (partially noting the fact that the usual Beavis and Butt-head intro is shown at the beginning of episode 4). Weevil is Beavis (the more hyperactive one who transformed into Cornholio in episode 4) and Rex is Butt-head (the more calm and marginally more intelligent of the two). He also tends to mislead/insult Weevil a lot as seen in their comment special and when watching Silent Hill. Both tend to laugh stupidly at regular intervals, as well as try to make sexual innuendos out of everything they or someone else says (i.e. "You said 'region'!"). All in all, they're both incredibly idiotic, which, considering how unintelligent they are in the dub, only adds to the parody's humour. Weevil also repeats the word "fire!" in various episodes, a reference to Beavis' pyromania and the fact that all uses of the word "fire" were eventually banned on Beavis and Butt-head. It's later revealed that Weevil somehow saved Kaiba from The Salesman. Rex apparently has a very short memory span, as he claims not to remember that Joey won his Red-Eyes from him.
According to Marik's Evil Council of Doom, Weevil enjoys Furbies and according to Yugi Gives An Apology, Raptor is one of characters people want to see (which irritates Bakura who was thinking he might get more screen time).
They have appeared in their own videos in which they watch Silent Hill in a manner that parodies Mystery Science Theater 3000.
[edit] The Big 5
The Big 5 compose of the top 5 bosses at Kaiba's company. They have tried to kill Kaiba multiple times but have always failed. The Big Five seem to like standing up dramatically at the same time as a form of celebration. They also were described as 4Kids executives in episode 37. They hate Disney.
[edit] Marik "Sebastian" Ishtar III
Thus far, he has appeared in the Yu-Gi-Oh Christmas Carol (as Yami Marik); Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series Episode 23; the Marik's Evil Council of Doom videos; episodes 28, 30, 31, 32, 33-37, and 39-41 ; The 2008 Christmas Special; and was mentioned in Cr*psule Monsters.Yami Marik speaks in a sneering modulated voice that sounds very similar to the Monarch from Venture Bros, and he appears to be able to control minds (or at least believes himself able to), and calls Kaiba "Binky Boy" and "Mind slave" (even though he calls one of his minions Binky Boy as well). This derives from the TV show, Pinky and the Brain as when the henchman asks, "Gee Brain, what are we going to do tomorrow night?", he responds "The same thing we do every night, Binky Boy." He also has a habit of being totally unable to hide his true intentions from people, such as asking Seto Kaiba to come to him so he can cut him. He tries to hide this by saying he wanted to hug him instead. Kaiba declined this offer by saying "I'm not a very huggy person". His favorite hobby in his free time is to attempt to take over the world and playing with his Steve Squad. In episode 34, he accidentally says what he is secretly planning out loud in front of Joey and Tea.
In "Marik's Evil Council of Doom", Marik is the only villain willing to follow the show's plot line and defeat Yugi with a children's card game. Also, whenever Marik says the word fuck, instead of bleeping it out, a voice yells "EFF!" instead, similar to Perfect Hair Forever (it is implied that this occurs only to the word fuck; in episode 36, when he tried to say the word "bullshit", the regular bleeping is used to censor it). Marik also believes there are no female characters in Yu-Gi-Oh and only girly looking men (he believes himself to be the girliest), and appears to have a relationship with Bakura, mentioned in the Serenity commentary special. Though despite many gay references to himself he once offered to strip for the fangirls on one occasion
In the Zorc and Pals episode Marik claims to be Zorc's wife.
He introduces himself to Yami in episode 28, where he claims that he is in charge of the most feared anime organization known to man, the Rare Hunters (though Yami believes that honor goes to the Samurai Pizza Cats). In the episode, he claims that his goal is to steal Yami's screen time and to destroy him "a little", though Yami originally believed that Marik was out to kill him and steal his Millennium Puzzle.
Marik's Millennium Rod, like in the original series, has the power to control whoever he wants, like forcing them to break dance against their will, though in the second "Marik's Evil Council of Doom", it is revealed it only works on people with the name Steve. So far, he controlled Bandit Keith (Who's middle name is Steve); the Rare Hunter who stole Joey's Red Eyes Black Dragon (revealed to be named Steve); Arkana (whose full name is revealed to be Steve Arkana); and Strings (Who is known as "Steve the Mime", "the most evil Steve in all of Stevedom", according to Marik). He also claims to have "an army of celebrity Steves" at his disposal, including "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Steve Jobs, Steve Guttenberg and Steve Buscemi. His latest mind slave was Steve The Mime, someone Marik called pretty "f-ed up" for having piercing tattoos. He lost when Yugi was able to take advantage of a glaring flaw in the Duel Monsters rulebook and Yugi took Slifer the Executive Producer as Marik promised the Rare Hunters would take his friends as he road into the city on a motorbike (something that not even the band Boston would help look cool according to LittleKuriboh). Later on he met Bakura, who claimed to have found in him the gay signal he was feeling lately. Marik replies that he likes women, but Bakura does not believe him and ironically pointed out that he dresses like one, adding that Marik looks as masucline as a Square Enix character (famous for making very effeminate male characters), mocking him by asking to call him "Basch from Dalmasca". After a talk they decided to work together to defeat Yugi and possibly kill him (Since Marik himself said his plan was evil but not well thought out) and also share beauty tips. In the following episode he tries to trick Joey and Téa like in the original series by helping Bakura and pretending to be a nice guy, but he fails. First he can't think of a fake name and out of random thinking he says Malik (A reference to an alternate romanizeation of his name) instead of Namu like in the official anime. After that he says accidentally out loud all his evil plans. When Joey points it out, he decides to take them by force with the Steves. Later on the pier, where Joey is trapped he is tricked into signing a contract in exchange for his freedom, but the contract was a legal paper that changed his name from Joey Wheeler to "Steve" Wheeler so Marik is able to control him. In episode 39, he conte mplates a fake name of "Malik Blishtar", and is annoyed when Odion (who everyone believes to be Marik) insults himself (Thus insulting Marik instead). When Joey claimed Marik (really Odion) was an asshole, Marik said "He might just be misunderstood." Odion then said "No I'm definitely an asshole", to which Marik replied "Not helping, Odion!" He also continues to yell his evil plans out loud, and tells Joey that he will kill him last (Joey takes this as a joke). In episode 40 he wants people to ignore him.
At the end of episode 27, the first time one actually sees Marik talking without his hood, he mentions ordering 'Pornographic comic books'. It shows a crudely drawn Marik holding a book with the word "Porno" on it. He says, "This pornography is really quite good..." and then is attacked by Dr. Octogonapus (from the Lazer Collection created by Dom Fera, which was referenced previously in the episode).
In episode 41, it was revealed that he has an ice-cube fetish.
In episode 42 it is revealed that he was seemingly evil right after being born, promptly shouting out "Excewwent!" and laughing evilly. He grew up to hate live-action Disney movies which he'd been forced to watch as part of the Tombkeepers' initiation ritual. Following the ritual he begins to exhibit insanity, for instance when Odion asks how he feels, he retorts "I've been tortured by my own father. I'm forced to live the rest of my life underground and I was forced to watch the worst Jamie-Lee Curtis movie since Christmas with the Cranks. How the f*ck do you think I feel Binky-Boy?!" He seemingly inherited the penchant to calling people Binky-Boy after his father who once called Odian that.
In the 2008 Holiday Special, he held another meeting of his Evil Council but only Yami Bakura shows up. The pharaoh sent them a Christmas present, which turned out to be a time bomb, which kills them.
In a movie rant about "X-Men Origins: Wolverine", he claims he's "fairly good at playing hopscotch", but it just could be a joke, saying how one person's power is to use Kung-Fu and that he's a mutant.
[edit] Odion
Odion first appeared for a short time by the end of episode 23, making a gag with the classic "Pinky and the Brain" dialogue, taking Pinky's voice and personality. This voice was not used in later appearances, instead his personality was changed to a "plain and one dimensional" character (as stated by Marik), being emotionless and serious all the time and by following Marik's instructions too literally, even causing Marik to get mad at him. He normally says only, "Yes, Master Marik." He also likes Gummi Bears and when Marik threatened him to get rid of his collection was the only moment when Odion actually answered Marik. In episode 42, he gets his own flashback explaining some of his and Marik's history (mostly Marik) during which he didn't think the tombkeepers initiation was so bad and questions why watching disney films is a part of it; afterwards he comments, "Jeez, even in my own flashbacks I'm a minor character!"
Odion apparently thinks of Marik as the worst boss ever, and he's trying his best to drag Marik's name in the dirt when he's impersonating him. He agrees to what Joey says about Marik being an asshole, in which Marik yells at Odion in front of everyone. He seems to enjoy being scolded.
[edit] Melvin
The true villain of the second season, Melvin is Marik's imaginary friend, created by him as a child to deal with years of abuse and live-action Disney movies. Yugi is initially skeptical of Melvin's butting into the show, until Melvin proves himself more evil than Marik by revealing that it was he who banned Team Four Star the creators of Dragonball Z the Abriged Series. Whether his name is actually Melvin is unknown as Yami simply calls him this when expressing how annoyed he is at the sudden plot twist.
Possibly as an exaggeration of Yami Marik's insanity, Melvin constantly offers to hug people but in truth just wants to stab them (possibly also a joke that in the dub the Millennium Rod's concealed dagger is edited out). Also, no matter what people say, he frequently claims he is controlling a person's mind.
[edit] 4Kids Entertainment
One of the main themes that the series makes fun of. Throughout the series the characters believe 4Kids to be the censor of all things good. One thing that they censor are guns, which cause some characters to think they are using magical invisible guns. Some of the characters such as Marik believe it to be the cruelest and most ruthless organization known to man. In Cr@psule Monsters they want to capture Yami for usage in a "crappy spin-off show". In episode 37, Marik talks about a prophecy that refers to 4Kids and that they will cause the end of the world. At the end of the episode, it is shown that 4Kids is aware of this prophecy, and that the downfall of Youtube.com is somehow crucial to their plans...
In episode 40, when Yami Bakura says Disney, it is cut to 4Kids. They react to Bakura saying "the forbidden word" (Disney) by thinking about canceling Yu-Gi-Oh. They then say that there were specific instructions from their boss (believed to be Noah Kaiba) to not cancel it until the end of Season 2. Everybody stands up and says "Down with Disney! All hail 4Kids!" This may have a relation to the prophecy in Episode 37, for Disney being a media giant and the part where 4Kids takes over the world.
The five main executives are The Big Five, usually shadowed.
edit Other characters
[edit] Seto Kaiba
As in the original series, Kaiba is sarcastic, offensive, and all around not very nice, and this was just for Episode 1 (In Episode 24 he does admit he's an asshole, just like his past self). He evidently likes to "screw the rules" due to his large fortune (one of his most popular phrases from the series is "Screw the rules, I have money!"). He is unable or unwilling to help the protagonists, such as calling an ambulance in Episode 1 or fighting Anubis in the Abridged Movie. He explains this by "being obscenely rich, and can't be expected to do it [himself]".
The spot in his heart for Mokuba seems to be gone, for whenever his brother talks he replies "Shut up Mokuba". However, this might be due more to his abridged personality more than anything, as Kaiba never seems more annoyed then usual at the more irritating bits of his brother's antics. As in the original series, the card he wears is an oversized locket, with a picture of Mokuba inside. It seems that Kaiba has two motivations in life: money, and his little brother. But money does come first.
Also he admitted that he flags Youtube to compensate for small penis size, but this remark was most likely a jab from LittleKuriboh to the people who flagged his videos on Youtube, resulting in his ban.
He disappears for several episodes due the fact he was written out of the show, but returns to help Yugi defeat his "ghost" in Episode 7 (although unlike the original, he isn’t much help at all). He may also be addicted to drugs that affect his memory; in Episode 11 he thinks he used to have green hair when he first dueled Yugi (using clips from the first Japanese series. His catchphrase appears here as "Screw the rules, I have green hair!"). He also styles himself as a "l337 hax0r", apparently having learned all his hacking skills from watching old episodes of Star Trek(as his computer comments on his typing the same keys repeatedly). He also stated that the "Blue Screen of Death" was his mortal enemy in the same episode.
Abridged Kaiba also has an even more distinct obsession with dragons than his counterpart. He claims that, while he plays chess, the game bores him because it doesn't include expensive holograms or dragons. He was once even told by Yami that he has a dragon fetish. He also mentions having a hard on for technology. He also ranks Reign of Fire as one of his all-time disappointments in life. He is apparently easily impressed by giant rocks. He also holds the ability to frequently break the fourth wall without any explanation and does so more than most characters. He also disregards anything involving Yu-Gi-Oh GX! and is appalled by the idea that he only appears in 3 episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh GX! (said by Bakura to be one episode). He also is highly skeptical of Ishizu Ishtar's prediction that in 10 years during Yu-Gi-Oh! GX he will have opened a duelist academy and not have aged a day.
Also like in the series Kaiba seems to be against the magical powers some of the cast has. In episode 6 he thought his duel disks could defeat Yugi's magical powers and in 24 he mentions he's the most skeptical person on earth. He does seem more accepting of the magic then the actual Kaiba, even though he still believes Ishizu's powers to see the future are lame and full of crap.
Recently, Kaiba has attempted to play Duel Monsters with a training program (which was a parody of GLaDOS from Portal), claiming that actually learning how to play the game would help him defeat Yugi since, as a main character, he is immune to defeat. However, the training program claimed the game was so ridiculously complicated that it has decided to take Kaiba's policy and "screw the rules". Throughout episode 26, he has been advertising Kaiba Corp. products, specifically the new DUEL DISK SYSTEM, which is accompanied by a jingle and an echo. Through this episode, after he advertises products, he says the word, "Trademark." He has also announced the coming of the Battle City tournament, which will follow the real Duel Monsters rules, something which Yami believes is the first real plot twist in the series. Episode 26 ends with him losing a finger. He is terrified of Dark Zebra, and had Obelisk the Tormentor kill it for him but mentioned how Dark Zebra would haunt his nightmares forever. He is quick to have he finger replaced by a replica, he is also horrified to find out that Mokuba thinks he is a Pokemon and even Kaiba got confused about it when he called him Charmander. He has also created a harem of robot women so he can get them to fall in love with him only for him to later shun them with his cold heart. He has acknowledged that he is like the anime version of Scrooge McDuck, except less fluffy. He also reveals that he prefers window seats on all vehicles.
In the other Abridged Movie, he is shown spying Yugi with cameras installed all over Japan (Since he is rich he can never be too paranoid) in order to always be one step ahead, even in private moments like the shower (Yami is confused when Kaiba mentions that he won't be watching him shower). He starts a tournament to defeat Yugi again and to do so, he orders Kemo and an anime version of Ving Rhames to kidnap Gary and force him to enter. Before facing Yugi in the tournament, he defeats Rex Raptor who then goes to dye his hair and causes the announcer to become infatuated with him. During the duel against Yugi, he summons three Blue Eyes White Dragon in one turn again. When Yugi asks him in the same fashion as in the episode one about what he did, Kaiba tells him to stop asking about it. After losing, he decides to sue the people who made Eye of Judgment for the PlayStation 3 (stating that it's an obvious rip off of Duel Monsters) and asking where Mokuba is.
Lately, he's been informed by Mokuba in "Seto Kaiba's Real Father" that he has a real father via blackmail letter (with the writer demanding his share of KaibaCorp's money), but at the moment it has not been determined who it is. Some suggestions in the video have included the likes of Tony Stark from Iron Man, Brock from Pokemon, The King from the Legend of Zelda Phillips CD-i Games, King Dedede from the Kirby video games, HeavyDDR and Big Boss from Metal Gear.
Kaiba is also extremely misogynistic, having little to no regard for the female sex. He created a harem of female robots, but reveals it was only so he could "shun them with his cold indifference". Grandpa, Bakura, and even Kaiba's own computer have mentioned that he needs to get laid... big time. Also, when asked by Mokuba where babies come from, he impatiently answers "you buy them in a store, just like everything else."
Twice now Kaiba has had a boner (seemingly from technology, as he stated in episode 15). Once before riding on a helicopter to go find a god card and once while watching Bakura and Yami duel on the blimp. At the start of the duel, he says that he'll stand there and pretend he doesn't have a boner and later in the episode, doesn't care what the duelist do, as long as no-one looks at his crotch.
Kaiba has said that he never takes off his clothes stating that they made him look good. He also has a really embarrassing birthmark somewhere that's covered by his clothes.
Kaiba accidentally saw Anubis`s penis when he was grabbed on the head.
It has been stated that whenever Kaiba smiles a puppy dies. In Episode 42 he smiles twice and manages to kill 9101 puppies; killing 100 when Odion summons Mega Ultra Chicken and 9001 when Melvin informs the main characters that he got Team4star banned.
[edit] Mokuba Kaiba
According to Kaiba, Mokuba tends to be kidnapped on a weekly basis (a recent montage of these kidnappings brought the total up to 2,042). So frequent are his kidnappings, that Kaiba doesn't run to his rescue anymore, preferring to just walk briskly. To this end, he feels he should consider to put a leash on him. Most of the characters who know Mokuba just assume that seeing he’s been kidnapped so many times he’s just used to it, quite to the contrary (Mokuba: "It feels like I’m dying inside!"). Mokuba loves his brother very much but Kaiba doesn't seem to show the same affection (Younger Mokuba: I love you, big brother! / Younger Seto: kthx).
In Episode 21, upon encountering Princess Edena, he says that it is the most traumatizing event in his life. He apparently knows how to drive some vehicles and acts as Kaiba's chauffeur, but lacks skill. This was shown at the end of Episode 24 where he crashes Kaiba's limo and Episode 26 where his helicopter flying causes Kaiba to lose a finger. In Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Movie, Mokuba asks every one he meets "...Can I be in the movie too?" and they all reply "Shut up Mokuba!", even when that's not what he said. Mokuba also admits to being a fan of Zorc & Pals as well as SpongeBob SquarePants and is actually very fast when stealing things (something he feels his brother endorses). His absence in the "Other Abridged movie" is noted by Kaiba after Yugi beats him in a duel, possibly implying that he may have been kidnapped again. In episode 28 Kaiba's doctor, after running some tests, concluded that Mokuba is going through "Japanese puberty", in which Mokuba thinks he is a Pokémon but seems uncertain about which one as he is constantly changing his cry from Bulbasaur to Charmander to Mr Mime. In 'Who's That Mokémon?' Mokuba also had Buneary's cry and shown him with Buneary ears. By episode 29, he is back to normal, but Japanese puberty still transformed him. In Episode 40, Ghost Nappa, making a cameo from TeamFourStar's Dragonball Z Abridged, thought that he was a rare Shiny Pokemon, and vowed to catch him with his Master Ball. In episode 30, he replies to Yugi's Grandpa (who says to shut up)"No! You shut up!" Ironically; Tea and Solomon state how rude Mokuba was, even though several characters tell Mokuba to shut up countless times, and that everyone tells Grandpa to shut up in episode 30. He has also always wanted a pet rabbit but his brother never buys him one. Kaiba finally did buy him a scorpion even though he said he was going to buy Mokuba a tarantula. Kaiba also pointed out the reason Mokuba never had any friends in Episode 32 is because of they always need to be rescued which may be a reason he had bullies pick on Mokuba when he was younger in episode 29.
Mokuba is more independent in season 2 as he uses an "Epic Mokuba Maneuver" to stop the Roba brothers in episode 29, and he rescues himself from being kidnapped by Marik's Steve Squad which results for the first time in Seto actually being proud to call him his little brother.
He also thinks that babies come from a store just like everything else, a fact that his brother has been quick to confirm every time he's asked.
[edit] Solomon Muto
Yugi's grandfather owns the card shop he and Yugi live in, and suffers from bouts of senility, frequently forgetting where he is and what is going on. He apparently lives in the basement of his own card shop and is often treated quite badly by Yugi. He frequently ponders his own death, calling the people in the obituary 'lucky bastards'. Solomon's body however, simply refuses to die. To date, Solomon has survived multiple assaults (Episodes 1, Abridged Movie), having his soul sucked from his body and placed in a coma-like state for an extended period (Episodes 2 to 19), extended periods of dehydration and exposure (referenced in Episode 20), constant animosity from his own grandson and assorted friends, and a harpoon injury from Mako Tsunami (Episode 33). Solomon has fought back on occasion though. After claiming that "Santa" should go to hell for always giving him trading cards (when that's what Grandpa always gives him for Christmas), Solomon threatens Yugi that he'll kill him in his sleep, freaking out Yugi some.
In the past Solomon seems to have been a highly experienced "Egyptologist", duelist, and general adventurer type. In Cr@psule Monsters 2, he's alive and well, exploring somewhere between Japan and India (and definitely not the scenery from Duelist Kingdom in season 1). It could be assumed that his bouts of memory loss, eccentricity, and general stupidity may be attributed to one too many head wounds, some sort of exotic disease, or an Egyptian curse.
Solomon has similarly colored eyes as Yugi, is short, and in Cr@psule Monsters 2, his hair seems to naturally spike up in an absurd fashion. In the second Christmas Special it is hinted that he is most likely Yugi's paternal grandfather.
Solomon seems to have a forbiden love with the Black Luster Soldier poster.
[edit] Mai Valentine
She has a voice of a drag queen and cleavage that appears to be the focus of much of the male members of the cast, especially Joey Wheeler; even she seems to be obsessed with them, as she cries out "My breasts are in danger!" when she is attacked. Her large breasts also seem to have the power to confuse others, similar to the Jedi mind trick from Star Wars, this was used on Kemo. Mai and Téa also have a running rivalry, since currently they are the only two female cast members that are regularly shown. She apparently has terrible handwriting. In the Duelist Kingdom, she was apearently "Raped" by PaniK.
In Episode 17, she is mocked for being a terrible duelist as she had lost to Joey and Panik and surrendered to Téa. This is cemented when she surrenders to Yugi, even though it is clear that her Harpie's Pet Dragon could easily destroy Yugi's Kuriboh. This became a running gag as Mai admitted to be surprised Kaiba let her in the Battle City Tournament in episode 28 even though she never won any card games. Joey even claimed she slept with Kaiba when she got 4 locator cards in episode 31. In one episode Mai claims that Yugi is quite cute, to which Téa replied in a deep, demonic voice "Back off bitch, he's mine,". After Yugi lost to Kaiba, Mai had heard that Yugi had lost his will to live, and apparently rushed to the site. She proclaimed that she "just loves broken men". Mai flirted with Yugi in Episode 21 (after Yugi found out that Téa only likes Yami and not him) in a The Graduate reference.
In Episode 38, she says she has a love interest with Joey Wheeler, but Joey is just in love with her breasts.
In Season 2 Mai had not been seen since Episode 26 until Kaiba announces the start of the Battle City Tournament. "Did somebody say 'old characters'?". Mai confirms she is competing in the tournament although she questions why Kaiba would let her in even though she keeps losing.
Mai did not appear but once in the Abridged Movie, claiming "my breasts are too big for this movie." However, she does appear in the credits, saying that she posed for Playboy, and it was the "hottest selling issue ever."
There are many statements referring to her breasts and her flirtatious attitude, particularly from Joey, Tea, Yugi, Mai and the generic henchmen. Even Ghost Nappa from Dragon Ball Z Abridged appeared after the stinger of Episode 40 and asked what was up with almost everyone's hair (save Odion, Mai, Seto, and Mokuba) and he asked Mai what was up with her breasts.
In one episode of Season 2, Mai says something to Yugi, who does not hear her because he was "distracted by her chesticles."
[edit] Kemo
The most seen of Pegasus’s henchmen. Although he is known as "The Nameless Henchman" in the series, for writing purposes his original dubbed name is used. Kemo has a tendency to yell "Attention Duelists!" every time he starts a conversation, even if there’s only one other person with him or if he's not addressing duelists. When Kaiba asked why he does this, he replied angrily it's simply what he does.
Another of Kemo's traits is referring to his hair in some form or another, usually related to what he is actually doing. For example, in Episode 6, when attacking a duelist he shouts: "Attention Duelists! My hair is assaulting you!"and other things such as "My hair is being assaulted!" In the same episode, he also claimed that his hair gives him the power to defy gravity. And in another episode he told Kaiba that "My hair is definitely not leading you into a trap!" Kaiba then threatened to shave his hair off. Kemo then set an alarm and claimed "That's for threatening my hair!" His 'hair' has a crush on Mai Valentine.
Kemo has also apparently taken child-grabbing classes, and on occasion he refers to them, such as in Episode 13, he attempts to attack Kaiba, but Kaiba notices him, and stops the attack. Kemo then said that his child-grabbing classes were a waste of money. He is also the long lost father of Tristan due to the fact that they have a similar hair style as well as the fact that they both refer to their "hair" and "voice" as people.
According to LittleKuriboh's LiveJournal, he was emailed by one of the people running the UK tournament, asking him to come and announce the tournament, claiming they really needed someone capable of saying "Attention Duelists!".
After Pegasus's defeat, Kemo is then seen working for the Big Five in episode 21. However, he is written out of the show at the end of episode 21, where he called his mother (addressing her with "Attention Mother!") and asked to move in with her, saying "My hair is crying! I don't have anywhere else to go.".
He returns in Yu-Gi-Oh: The Other Abridged Movie, where he is once again using what he learned from his "child-grabbing" classes to kidnap Gary, only to be stopped by Joey, apparently arousing his hair. For reasons he himself doesn't really know, he's working for Kaiba instead of Pegasus and he lost his hair, though he still makes references to it. He also appears in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Opening of Episode 32 as Commander Worf, being attacked by the Borg and crying out about his hair.
In episode 35 he appears in the mass flash-backs, referencing his popularity with "Attention Duelists! My hair is an internet phenomenon!"
[edit] Serenity Wheeler
Serenity has a high pitched-sounding voice, similar to Guilmon from Digimon. In Episode 3, the doctors have spent so much time trying to figure out what was wrong with her voice, that they forgot to treat her eyesight.
In all the flashbacks, she gets called a "dumb broad" by Joey.
She sometimes thinks that Joey cares more about card games than her, and although she's right, she figured she "was just being silly".
Even though she loves her brother, she did feel a pang of hatred towards Joey after he told her he spent all the prize money on trading cards, saying that she would never forgive him.
While Tristan is in the hospital with her, Serenity didn't seem to realize that he was trying to seduce her. "Don't worry about me, I'm just extremely gullible and naive." She also believed all the lies he told her that she told Joey on the phone.
While Joey is having his first match she talks about being in love with Tristan as he is always there for her, only this goes out the window with Tristan coming in the room having gone to the toilet, after this she goes silent. She is also proposed to by Tristan over the Internet only for her to call him a "lonely-deranged freak". By the time of episode 34 she clearly appears to be sick of Tristan. She also had to deal with a kid who had a seizure and thought he was Ash from Pokemon in Episode 31, thinking that she was Misty. Serenity lied to him about having cancer to shut him up.
Serenity's biggest appearance in the Abridged series was in her own comment special. There, she needed people to help her read the comments (still blind with bandages covering her eyes), and shooed away Tristan and Yugi away when it suggested to her that they were trying to hit on her, although one of the comments stated that she ought to go out with Yugi. She hints at fancying Yami Bakura due to his "hot accent". But is disappointed to find that he had dinner plans with Marik.
Despite the fact the operation intended to heal her eyesight failed, in episode 34 it is revealed that her blindness was only going to be temporary, and she was pleased to learn the writers wanted her to become a main character. She removes her bandages and regains her eyesight in Episode 36, finally traveling with Yugi and his friends from that episode onwards.
[edit] Mako Tsunami
Mako doesn't appear too often in the series, but he's known for his willingness to let people eat his fish ("Don't worry my friends, there's plenty more where that came from.") and an odd attachment to the ocean, going as far as marrying it in episode 17. Also in episode 17, he denies losing to Yugi, claiming to have used his giant squid monster to swallow Yugi's Dark Magician, "like the end of Pirates of the Caribbean 2, except it was satisfying!". To Yugi and his friends, he is a "Freaky Fish Guy" as he tried to stop Yugi by lobbing his spear at him, which causes Mako to say "I am not a freaky fish guy!". In his interview in episode 17, his screen caption reads 'Local Fisherman/Freaky Fish Guy'. He later married the ocean.
Mako returned in Episode 28 to choke Weevil Underwood. This led to him explaining to Weevil that nobody should play in the ocean 'unless they wish to drown'. He also revealed that he and his wife, the ocean, have a mutual understanding which allows him to date other large bodies of water, but the ocean is his one true love. This led to Underwood say: "Dude, you scored with the ocean? What a freaky fish guy," which provoked Mako into strangling Weevil and threatening to murder his entire family for making such a remark.
In episode 33, it was revealed that he divorced the ocean and was now dating the Domino Aquarium. He blamed Joey for his failed marriage due to the fact that Joey called him a "freaky fish guy" who throws harpoons at people, prompting everyone he met afterward to point out such. After Joey realizes that Mako offers more than what other minor characters from season one have to give, he is also told he is not "a freaky fish guy" but "the freaky fish guy" while giving them a catchphrase, the two come to an understanding, prompting Mako to give his rarest card and locator cards to Joey (without even dueling). He also gets back together with the ocean.
Mako has an odd habit to lob harpoons at anyone. So far he has lobbed a harpoon at 3 people (including Yugi's Grandpa).
Mako Tsunami also made a cameo appearance in Naruto: The Abridged Series as Inari's step-father, allowing Inari to eat his fish just like in Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series, although he is quick to say that he learned his lesson and won't lob his spear like last time. Originally, Tazuna claimed that Mako was killed, but after Naruto proved that the story was fake (parodying Phoenix Wright), Tazuna said that he ran away because Inari's mother is a horrible wife.
[edit] Zombie Boy
First appeared in Episode 12 with his friends Sid and Zygor when they were spying on Yugi and his friends. They were helping Bandit Keith to lead the gang into a trap, in which Zombie Boy had to duel Joey in a graveyard themed duel arena. He was called a goth when he scared Joey for the first time. During the duel he appeared to be in the lead while Michael Jackson's Thriller was playing while devastating Joey's life points.
He revealed that he dropped out of zombie school which is later revealed to be the Cambridge School for Zombies and was taught by Bandit Keith to become a duelist. He doesn't say anything except "BRAINS", but it is subtitled to be normal dialogue, which might be how the other characters can understand him. (The mummies in The Abridged Movie also had the same voice). In episode 37 it is revealed that in fact he can talk, only saying the word "brains" because that was the only line he got on the script. He also talked in the 3rd anniversary video. When asked why he didn't say "brains" he responded that he "doesn't do that anymore." He's considered to have "the voice of a zombie angel" by Zygor.
He later appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom (wanting the free tacos Marik had promised, but later found out they were a lie), and tried to come up with an evil plan that involved eating peoples' brains, but was shot down by Yami Bakura before he could explain. During the evil role call, he made a reference to the "I like turtles" YouTube meme.
In Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, he thinks that Yami Bakura's favourite movie of all time is gross. Throughout the meeting, he was told by Marik to transcribe everything said. But Marik declared that he be fired for writing the word Brains repeatedly. Although Zombie Boy says he did transcribe what they said but was angry to be fired and decided to quit.
Zombie Boy returns in episode 37 apparently hiding in a graveyard were he, Sid and Zygor are stealing locator cards by dressing up as zombies (even though he already is one) and walking to anybody coming by very, very slowly. He gets into a duel with Yami Bakura and convinced that he will win because Bakura is not a main character, after Bakura took them to Silent Hill. Zombie Boy summons his Nemesis from the Resident Evil series only for the creature to fall in love with Bakura's monster (Pyramid Head). After this he surprisingly enough says he quits in English. Zombie Boy somewhat snaps and declares his making a stand (complete with an American flag behind him) about zombies no longer being a threat but before he can finish his speech Bakura shoots him in the head with a invisible gun.
[edit] Shadi
Thus far, he has appeared in Episode 19 and Episode 41. His voice and personality are based upon Borat. He frequently greets people with "Jagshamesh! My name-a Shadi!", and claims that in his home country of Egypt, "we no longer use slave to build pyramid. Now we make women do it instead! Is nice?". He is the keeper of the Millennium Items, and tells Pegasus in a flashback in Episode 19 that his chamber in which he keeps the Items is constantly invaded by Jewish people who are trying to steal them, and he gives Pegasus the Millennium Eye since he is not Jewish. He also perceives Yugi as being a Jew after sensing the theft of Pegasus' Eye by Yami Bakura. He probes Yugi's mind using his Millennium Key, and thinks if Yugi lived in Egypt, he would be stoned to death for keeping such an untidy soul-room. He has also never seen the movie Labyrinth (dance magic, dance), and is confused with the randomly placed staircases and alcoves and nearly killed on several occasions by various traps set in Yami Yugi's section of Yugi's mind. When Yugi saves him from the Dark Magician, he realizes that Yugi may be the 'chosen one,' proclaiming him to be "not as Jewish" as he first thought. He apologizes for 'screwing with his head' and leaves Yugi alone and disappears, uttering "Chenquieh" as a farewell. He also says "Wha wha whe wha" whenever he shows astonishment.
Shadi finally reappears in Episode 41, where he explains that he is the protector of the fourth wall (believing that if it falls that "man will become like the animal, animal will become like the dirt and dirt will become like the jew"), and tells Yugi about the creation of the Egyptian God cards. He also admits to Yugi that he is "-what you say?- kind of a dick."
[edit] Duke Devlin
Duke appeared in episode 22. His voice is based on Snake from "The Simpsons", and almost every time he is speaking onscreen "SexyBack" by Justin Timberlake plays in the background. Yugi says they can be friends if he gets rid of "that annoying theme music," to which Duke replied with "What theme music?", suggesting that he either can't hear the music or that the music has always followed him around so he thinks it's normal. He likes to talk about how sexy he is, and tries to convince people that Dungeon Dice Monsters is not like Duel Monsters, despite the similar rules and exact same monsters. When asked why it's different, he simply responds, "My game uses dice." In the end, everybody tells him that they hate his game (they consider it more boring than Duel Monsters).
Pegasus funds Dungeon Dice Monsters apparently because it would make his card game "look exciting by comparison". Tristan thinks he's a witch, having seen him perform magic tricks, and can be heard constantly shouting "Burn the witch!", a reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Duke reappears in episode 36, still having "SexyBack" play whenever he speaks, or is around. He saves Tristan and Serenity from a mob of Steves, throwing a dice at one, prompting him to say that it "barely hurt". Tristan leaves Serenity with him to beat the Steves up. He comes across Mai, who scolds him for not seeing the red light, to which he replies "I thought it was just because I am surrounded by hos", leaving Mai in awe. Tristan still refers to him as a witch at this point, asking him if he brought his broomstick with him while escaping the Steves. Men apparently propose to him all the time, (although Tristian claims that he was kidding). After reappearing in 36 Duke became part of Yugi's group of friends something he asked to be right before the start of season 2, even though he didn't fufill his promise of losing the sexyback music.
Apparently his hand has a habit of touching other people's butts, as in episode 40. It has been mentioned that Duke is the fourth Jonas brother, likely a joke at his expense due to the many fangirls he has. Duke also seems to break the fourth wall (like everyone else) such as in episode 41 when he panics at the concept of "dying in a show about f*cking card games"
[edit] Rebecca Hawkins
Rebecca wants Grandpa's Blue-Eyes White Dragon, not only because she thinks he stole it, but also so that she can sell it on eBay. Just like the original, she's a really good duelist (to which Joey replied, "That's impossible. Only grown-ups are allowed to play children’s card games!"). Also, just like the original, she talks to her teddy bear; however, in the Abridged Series, the teddy appears to be possessed by the devil, at one point saying, "Hail, Satan!" and "Your mother plays card games in hell!" (a reference to The Exorcist), as well as having the music from the film and from Psycho play near the end. She also listens to the "voices inside her head", implying that she may be mentally unstable, or also possessed. But overall her character is very similar to the original - at least in that point of the series - stubborn and hot tempered. At the end of episode 20, her grandfather claimed that Yugi could have won the duel and therefore won even though he actually surrendered, confusing her. Yugi gave her the card he won on Duelist Kingdom, saying he didn't want it. When she asks if she has become the King of Card Games due to obtaining the card, Yugi replies, "Hell no.".
In Marik's Evil Council 2, she is invited because of her teddy bear. There, she nicknames Yami Bakura "Kitty" which Marik begins using as well.
Unlike most other characters, she is not voiced by LittleKuriboh. Instead, she is voiced by LittleKuriboh's wife, Safty.
[edit] Ishizu Ishtar
Ishizu first appears in episode 24. She claims her Millennium Necklace gives her the power to predict the future and to break the fourth wall, despite the fact it is blatantly obvious every character has this power. She rather carelessly gets the Egyptian God Cards stolen from her. She also lends Obelisk the Tormentor to Kaiba without considering that he would just keep the card rather than giving it back. Kaiba finally decides that she's not good at predicting the future when she predicts that in ten years Kaiba will open a dueling school and look exactly the same as he does now. In episode 26, she explains to Yami about his destiny, apparently "spoiling all of season 2" in the process, but it's not enough to please Yami, who wanted a flashback. However, the flashbacks she shows him turn out to be nothing more than two moments in his life where Yami was crying for a nipple; as a baby and as the pharaoh during the Thief King's raid, although Ishizu admitted the latter was just her "screwing with him".
She also appears in Episode 32, claiming the giant rock is the only one that understands her and goes off and hides when she hears Bakura coming, not wanting to get involved in the actual plot. There might a be a possibility that she's gay, according to Bakura's gaydar until its batteries ran out.
In the Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged Third Anniversary Video, she and Espa Roba have a prediction war over whether or not Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged would be cancelled after LittleKuriboh finished Season 2, but she dismisses his prediction as a fruitless attempt at creating hype. One of the Roba brothers offers to sell Ishizu the baby.
[edit] Akhenaden
Was on the 'evil roll call' In Marik's Evil Council of Doom. Marik is unable to pronounce his name, so he decides that "Bob" is sufficient. Since Bob only mumbles incoherently, he's not taken seriously. For reasons unknown, Bob does not reappear in the second meeting of the evil council.
[edit] Zorc
First appeared in Episode 9 when Yami Bakura stated his intentions of turning Yu-Gi-Oh! into "Zorc & Pals". Zorc is obsessed with destroying the world (a laugh track plays every time he states this. He is aware of this, as he noted its absence in Marik's Evil Council of Doom). While this destructive nature is still present in his character, he is not as evil or cruel to others as in the original series. In Marik's Evil Council of Doom this point is proven as he actually talks and acts nicely towards the other villains present in the place (he even left a smiley face while saying hi to everybody in the spam messages in the CardGamesFTW account). He has an enormous dragon-esque being protruding from his crotch, which he reveals is his "willy". He and Yami Bakura live together and are the parents of an adopted daughter (most likely either Mai or Tea). Apparently in the Abridged Movie, Zorc managed to finally destroy the world. From there he went to Disney World, but didn't destroy it despite his original plan to do so, as he had a fun time there. Instead, he destroyed EuroDisney.
He also appeared for a short while on television in the Abridged Christmas Special and in Episode 17, he and his adopted daughter were suffering from a terminal disease, as one of the special Zorc and Pals episodes.
In Marik's Evil Council 2, when Rebecca and her teddy bear first appeared, he thinks the teddy bear is cute and wants to hug him (Which immediately caused the teddy bear to reply saying "Touch me and die, unclean one!")
In the Zorc and Pals bonus video (titled "The One with Confusing Circumstances") he is visited by his mother who wanted him to become a lawyer so he lies about it with the help of Bakura, making Zorc's mother believe he is Zorc's wife. In the conversation it is revealed that he is 5 million years old and he was married once, but he destroyed his wife (Though this may have been a lie). At the end of the episode Bakura gets tired of the lie and tells that he is not Zorc's wife, in that moment Marik appears and claims to be Zorc's wife, surprising everybody. Upon this, Zorc is reminded that he did in fact get married, but forgot all about it.
After some time, Bakura decided to leave Zorc because he was tired of seeing Zorc blow up the world countless times. Zorc promptly takes his anger out on the studio audience (not that it really matters because they were all already dead).
In Episode 37, Bakura claims that Zorc destroyed the world over 12 times now. He finally stops destroying the world and destroys the Studio Audience. And Bakura decides to cancel Zorc & Pals. That could possibly be the final episode of Zorc & Pals. ("God, we are so canceled.")
[edit] Alex Brisbane
Alex Brisbane only appears in Cr*psule Monsters. He tries to convince the others that he is not a villain by saying multiple times that he is not a villain. He tricks the gang to step on the capsule monsters map by telling them that there is candy in the map. He only appears in the "previously on Cr@p" segment of Cr@psule Monsters 2, giving away some dull exposition.
[edit] Dartz
Dartz hates Marik for not inviting him and his 'evil motorcycle-riding henchmen' to the Evil Council of Doom and decides to hold his own evil council to be 'much better' serving pizza rather than tacos. In his revenge he planned on spamming Marik's YouTube account, which apparently did not work. In his second attempt, he tried the "is your refrigerator running?" prank call, which spectacularly failed as Marik told him he didn't even have a refrigerator (Although Marik hadn't realized it was a joke until Dartz hung up).
He also hates the habit of his henchmen for riding motorbikes, because when they do it they don't pay attention to him.
Dartz and the others also apparently play Dungeons & Dragons according to the spam comments on Marik's Youtube account.
[edit] Alister
Appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2. He thinks that "Marik is so mean" and was happy to hear that Dartz wanted to set up his own evil council. After Dartz failed to successfully prank call Marik, he tells him '"We can't hear you boss! We're too busy riding our motorcycles!"' He speaks in an extremely high and childish voice similar to the Squeaky Voiced Teen from The Simpsons.
[edit] Valon
Valon has thus far appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, in which he was deemed "a dork" to attend the meeting. He speaks entirely in complete non-sequiters composed of stereotypical Australian slang in the first episode of the meeting. In the second he is only seen riding his motorbike with Alister and Rafael.
[edit] Rafael
Raphael has appeared in Marik's Evil Council of Doom and Marik's Evil Council of Doom #2, in which he was deemed "a dork" to attend the meeting. The only thing he ever says is "ZUG ZUG!", a phrase used by Orc grunts in Blizzard's Warcraft series. Once again he says that phrase just after Dartz curses his henchmen, as Raphael was also riding his motorbike
