I wanted to comment on the episode of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! I noticed that 2 best friends, both posessed by an ancient spirit, are dueling on a pier. The winner gets a key to unlock the chain connected to a system designed to drown them to death. If they refuse, Then another character will be crushed to death, followed by the whole stage explode. They have 1 hour. The main character has the choice to control or give control of his body to the Pharroh within. He has to get his best friend to regain control of his body as well.
If you ask me, it`s a bad idea to give a psycopath the power to control minds. How the hell did he get his hands on that rod in the first place? I think it mentions why in a flashback, yet I can`t remember.
