Ep. 23: Yuugi faces Kaiba's devastating trap and ultimate dragon while drawing strength from friends and family
Aired on September 26, 2000
Yuugi initially holds the upper hand in the duel, but Kaiba activates the Deck Destruction Virus of Death trap card. This effect eliminates all of Yuugi's monsters possessing 1500 or more ATK points. Kaiba then summons the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, shifting the momentum drastically against Yuugi. With his monsters destroyed and a powerful opponent remaining, the situation appears dire. However, Yuugi finds renewed resolve through the encouragement of his friends and memories of his grandfather. This emotional support allows him to continue fighting despite the overwhelming disadvantage and the threat posed by Kaiba's ultimate monster.
