== Darkness and Zorc are related. ==

They look alike, they have similar motives, they both use realtively innocent hosts who (using season 0 for Bakura) attract many girls, they each disappear in the thirdish season (Waking the Dragons and Yubel) and reappear as main villan as the forth, they each have two hosts (Thief King Bakura and Little Bakura for Zorc, Fujiwara and Fubuki for Darkness). They're each epic and this trooper is a fangirl of Zorc and thinks Darkness is cute.

* I always thought that Darkness was the Antichrist to Zorc's Satan. A more human embodiment of the evil shadow demon thing.

** [[Zork ~~(Video Game)~~|It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.]] Seriously, this is a WMG? It's painfully obvious from the allusion in the names.

== GX takes place in a world where the Roman Empire never fell. ==

Line 31:

First, he's obsessed with the pop idol shtick, so secretly-gay boy band jokes apply. Second, he's ridiculously showy even with his obsession. Third, despite his parading to the girls, he has yet to seduce any of them and has ''hidden'' from them when they started stampeding towards him - something that a true Ladies' Man would never do. He gives lousy dating tips to the heterosexual Manjyome, showing his lack of understanding of women.

So, why is Darkness his repressed sexual nature come to life? Simple: he takes all the above and strips away the facade of woman-wooing, making them manlier. Also, during his duel with Hell Kaiser, he makes two contradictory statements about his [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]: he says that it'll always be a part of him, but he later says that it's gone and will never come back. Note that the second statement is made under duress after Hell Kaiser questions his competence with his alter-ego's deck, wondering if it was him or it that was calling the shots. This could be Fubuki's acknowledgment that he's homosexual, but denial that he's ineffectual because of it. Plus, every other alter-ego in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]'' (except the ones that were another being entirely possessing the person's body) had been created from repressed emotions brought forth ''via'' a magical item (Marik and Yami Marik, {{spoiler|Judai and Supreme King Haou}}, etc.). Fubuki ''was'' given one half of the Shadow Pendant, so...

* Partially [[Jossed]] in Season 4: Fubuki wasn't the first or the only host of the Darkness entity, so it isn't the embodiment of his repressed homosexual angst. But that doesn't rule the gist of the theory out, especially since Darkness' last host was a bishounen pretty boy who just happened to be Fubuki's best friend.

Line 59:

In ''[[Shaman King]],'' when Yoh was reincarnated, his soul was split in two. One became Yoh, the other became Hao. In Monster World, when Judai {{spoiler|becomes an evil overlord}}, he goes by the name Hao. Evidently, Yoh's and Hao's souls were recombined some time after their deaths and returned to Earth as Yuki Judai, but remained in conflict; Yubel was able to force Hao to the surface.

== The original [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]] is a [[Show Within a Show]] on [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]], and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|GX]] is another Instrumentality-induced fantasy imagined by Shinji Ikari. ==

Shinji, the ultimate [[Unlucky Everydude]] [[Non-Action Guy]] in a painful, [[Deconstruction|Deconstructed]] shonen universe imagines himself as a popular, talented, fearless, [[The Ace|perfect, ultimate, too-good-for-words hero]] in a classic shonen series. He [[Chaste Hero|doesn't get the least bit nervous]] around Asuka, and Rei is an emotional, energetic, spunky young admirer of his. But, as Shinji rejected Instrumentality for the real world, the fantasy started to wear thin. [[Kill'Em All|The characters he imagined all started disappearing]], and Judai's [[Hidden Depths]] were revealed as his own world and psyche started [[Break the Cutie|falling apart]].

* Would Johan be a re-imagining of Kaworu in this scenario, then?

Line 88:

First it was Misawa staying behind to hang out with Taniya; then it's Asuka choosing to study abroad after she can't get into Judai's pants; then Sho takes over the role of Kaiser from his nearly-dead brother; and now Manjyome is screwing up Edo's career as a professional duelist and taking his place. As the fourth season is the graduating year for all the characters, this might be justified as an example of how old school friends go on with their separate lives after school ends. But this sudden push to get all of the old characters out of the picture is too blatant to be coincidence.

== Jun Manjyome's mother [[Death By Childbirth|died in childbirth]]. ==

== Jun Manjyome's mother [[Death by Childbirth|died in childbirth]]. ==

Jun's older brothers put pressure on him to uphold the family name - not his parents, who should be more concerned about stuff like that. When he runs away and isn't seen for three months, his brothers are waiting for him when he returns to the Academy. No parents. In the beginning, it's only his brothers he wants to please, not his parents. It's his ''brothers''' help he doesn't want to rely on to become a pro, not his parents, who would logically be the ones with the money and connections in high places - if they were alive.

Line 122:

** Or maybe Yubel was a [[Hermaphrodite]] with the physical appearance of a girl prior to losing humanity...

== Season 4 didn't happen because Judai's fusion with Yubel lead directly and immediately into the events surrounding [[Yu-Gi-Oh ~~5 Ds~~|Zero Reverse]]. ==

== Season 4 didn't happen because Judai's fusion with Yubel lead directly and immediately into the events surrounding [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's|Zero Reverse]]. ==

The garbage surrounding the ancient history of the Jibakushin and the Nazca Lines are all blatant lies, and the Jibakushin have only existed for as long as Yubel and Judai have been fused. Furthermore, Rudger's destruction of Old Momentum which caused the Zero Reverse was a desperation bid to prevent [[Instrumentality]] - had Yubel and Judai not become fused, Zero Reverse would have turned into a black hole that [[Apocalypse How|ended all life in this and every other reality]], and without Zero Reverse happening, everyone would have become [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|tang.]] The two events canceled each other out, containing the catastrophe to a manageable area and leading directly into the [[Oddly Named Sequel]], 5Ds.

* Alternatively, Zero Reverse could have happened as a direct result of Trueman and Darkness' actions. Namely, that the entire population of the planet just suddenly up and vanishing while some people are, say, in the middle of conducting open heart surgery, would be rather catastrophic.

Line 143:

It would explain why trading cards are used in politics and scientists. After the main series, Kaiba realised that the Shadow Games were real, and he could use his link to the past to make his holograms real. The Kaiba you see is actually Mokuba, who is in disguise so Seto can rule the world in secret.

** Then who's Mokuba?

*** [[Yu-Gi-Oh ~~the~~ Abridged Series|Shut up, Mokuba.]]

*** [[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Shut up, Mokuba.]]

** That WOULD explain why Kaiba doesn't appear to have aged and Yugi has.

Line 152:

== Fubuki was being influenced by Darkness to release the Shadow Beasts ==

When Manjoume came to Fubuki for advice in wooing Asuka, Fubuki himself was at his weakest; off guard, relaxed, and unnoticing of what his actions could really cause. Under influence of Darkness, who still had plans, Fubuki "came up" with the idea of Manjoume stealing and using the Gate Keys to battle Asuka for her hand. This in turn was the sole cause of the Shadow Beasts gaining the energy needed to reawaken, almost bringing about [[The End of the World As We Know It]] in the process.
