* Many [[Super-Powered Evil Side|Superpowered Evil Sides]] Gained by characters can be disturbing. The eyes gain creepy colorations, veiny bulges tend to appear on their face and their voice changes can become really disturbing.

** If we're talking about Yami [[Spell My Name With an "S"|Marik/Malik]], we can't really leave out ''him scraping the skin off of his father's back while the victim screamed in pain'', can we?

*** Also, in Chapter 5, when Anzu gets knocked out with chloroform...and it's implied that the guy who knocked her out wants to rape her. Creepy enough...but then, we never get to see what Yami himself does to her, do we? The chapter ends with him standing next to her unconscious body. We have NO IDEA what he could have done to her, and don't forget that, according to [[Word of God]], Yami Yugi WAS ACTUALLY EVIL then.

* In Chapter 27 of the manga, I found Kaiba's casual mention of "human experiments" being carried out in the virtual simulator, and the fact that he's discovered he can send the average person incurably insane within 10 minutes, to be particularly disturbing.

* Many of the earlier cards were REALLY unnerving, but one of the worst was Sorcerer Of The Doomed. It basically looks like an aged corpse with a malevolent expression and a body suit of horrified faces. The flavor text also helpfully states that it is a master of life-extinguishing spells.

** For extra fun, among the monsters they've infected are some from the previous story arc in Duel Terminal -- [[Back From the Dead|monsters that had previously died]], including the one that [[Oh Crap|had ENDED the world previously by freezing it solid]], though [[Nerf|he's not as broken as he used to be]]. However, as these monsters were effectively killed through said deep freeze and other, previous disasters of varying scales of lethal, [[Zombie Apocalypse|it's pretty obvious what]] [[Not Using the Zed Word|the Verz virus]] [[Our Zombies Are Different|really is]] -- though, oddly enough, none of their monsters have the in-game type for that, though they've certainly got all the tropes in order.

* [[Body Horror|The Wicked Worm Beast.]] Look closely at its card. Is this thing a humanoid monster with worm tendrils... or (more likely) a human corpse being controled by a monster worm parasite?
