| Yugi
Mutou |
| Yugi Mutou is the main character of Yu-Gi-Oh! He completed the Millennium Puzzle, which unlocked a personality hidden deep with the puzzle. This personality comes out whenever Yugi needs to play a game. In other mediums (magazines, games, etc.), this "other" Yugi is called the "Dark Yugi". Yugi has gone to the Duelist Kingdom to retrieve the soul of his grandfather, which was stolen by the creator of the Duel Monsters card game, Pegasus J. Crawford
(below).
Introduced in Episode 1

| Tea
Gardner (Japanese Name: Anzu Mazaki) |
The female member of the group. Anzu doesn't play a huge role in the series, but comes through in a pinch. Though their relationship isn't developed in the series, in the comic, Yugi has a large crush on her. Anzu, in turn, has a crush on the other Yugi. She has since learned to accept that they are both flip-sides of the same coin. The funny part is, the other Yugi is rather indifferent to Anzu.

| Joey
Wheeler (Japanese Name: Katsuya
Jounouchi) |
Yugi's best friend and rival. Early in the comic, both he (often simply called Jounouchi) and Honda (below) had the habit of picking on Yugi since he was short. However, when Yugi stood up for both of them after being beat up by a larger bully (and also getting beat up in the process), both became Yugi's friends, and are almost always seen with him. Jounouchi also goes to the Duelist Kingdomm, but for a different reason: his sister, Shizuka (below), is going to go blind due to a malformity in her eyes. Winning the Duelist Kingdom tournament will allow him to get enough prize money to pay for an operation to fix her eyes.

| Ryou
Bakura |
| A mysterious young man that is part of Yugi's
group, but is not featured until later in the
series. Anzu sees him several times, but thinks
it's just her mind, since he disappears soon
after. The truth is, Bakura is the holder of the
Millennium Ring, another Millennium Item. This
item also has a terribly dark hidden
personality. The Millennium Ring has the power
to detect other Millennium Items. (NOTE: The
Japanese voice actress of Bakura is the same
voice actress as Saila Mas in the original
Gundam series from the 1980s.)

expensive operation can save her from going
blind.

| Maximillion
Pegasus (Japanese Name: Pegasus J.
Crawford) |
| The American designer of the Duel Monsters
card game, and head of the Industrial Illusion
Company. What makes Pegasus so dangerous is that
he also has a Millennium Item, called the
Millennium Eye. This Item allows him to read an
opponent's mind. This is the reason that he has
never been defeated. He also has a secret: Why
is he willing to go so far to gain control of
the Kaiba Corporation? All will be revealed in
the end. (NOTE: The Japanese voice actor for
Pegasus elongates his ending to sentences, for
"masu" and "desu". He does
the same thing in the Japanese comic. This is
one of the funny bits that is not in the English
language version.)
