The companions and Monsters he believes in will accompany him . Even if they ' re separated , Yugi will always be alongside Yami . Yugi ' s spirit vanishes and Yami cries in frustration and regret promising that he will save him no matter what it takes . Trivia . Except for The Seal of Orichalcos , Yami ' s and Yugi ' s respective Decks and Hands were in the same order , with the same Cards . Yami realized it early in the Duel , which is why Yugi changed his Hand . The " Seal of Orichalcos " Card was there because it was to show Yami what he ' d done when he ' d faced Rafael .
