He also barely knew the rules of the card game, which I don't even know how that's possible when he's a main character in a show about a children's card game and he witnesses several duels first-hand. Really, the guy is nothing more than a glorified cheerleader, except he's a male cheerleader. Why would they make a guy and not have him do anything? He has no special powers, no redeeming qualities, and contributed nothing to the plot. Yet he was supposedly a best friend of the show's protagonist, which I honestly find ridiculous. The guy barely ever interacted with Yugi. --- -The Admirable <cite>Waluigi7 posted [p:882148925] in What was t...
