Line 28:
* [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: The price for losing or cheating one of the Pharaoh's Shadow Games was to receive a "Penalty Game" that would deliver [[Poetic Justice]] for the rest of your life. This ranged from forever seeing nothing but hallucinations of money, to having ''your vision mosaic censored''. This makes perfect sense, considering that these games were not games in the classic sense but rather an occult judgement of the player's soul where they were forced to reveal their true selves. Thus, those found guilty would always have the punishment fit the crime, such as the school bully who decided to just forget the game and murder Yami to keep the stack of money... only to be found the next day rolling in dead leaves, thinking them to be cash. The most notable would be Kaiba's which led to a whole arc and a merchandise phenomenon.
* [[Covert Pervert]]: Yugi has completely NOT leapfrogged adolescence. In the first manga arc, right after he's made friends with Jonouchi, they're seen talking about some porn videos they've been exchanging. Talking about 'squinting at the pixels' really leaves little else it can be.
* [[Crane Game Gag]]: Shows a variant with Capmon, Capsule Monsters. Kids collect these monsters from vending machines and then use them for battle. You get random capsules from a machine and thus do not know what levels you will get, making the odds high-stakes. Yugi nearly tears apart a machine when he only gets level one monsters, asking why it isn't working. (Turns out it was rigged.)
* [[Dead Little Sister]]: Ryou Bakura writes his dead little sister a letter.
* [[Death by Childbirth]]: Mokuba explains that his mother died shortly after his birth. Whether this was by childbirth or not is not specified, but [[Promotion to Parent|the result stays the same.]]
