Yugi Muto (DF)

Yugi Muto is one of the few pre-existing Yu-Gi-Oh! characters to appear in Legendhiro's Yu-Gi-Oh! DF. This incarnation of Yugi is in his twenties (though he still looks quite young), as his appearance in Legendhiro's story takes place roughly eight years after his last appearance in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist Anime. He still holds the title King of Games, but Yugi does not posses the Millennium Puzzle, or any other Millennium Items, as they have already been destroyed at this time. He is also no longer the host for the Pharaoh Atem's spirit.
==Story==
Yugi initially only appears in the fifth main story arch of Yu-Gi-Oh! DF; Kaiba Corp Invitational Tournament. He is one of the competitors in the second Kaiba Corporation Grand Championship tournament. Yugi makes it to the finals to duel DF main character John. Yugi is defeated, though the circumstances were less than ordinary.
He later reappears in a short story by the author, where he fights a rematch with John using a deck inspired by his "Toy Deck" from Yu-Gi-Oh! R. While this story is written to fit into the canon of Yu-Gi-Oh! DF, it is unclear if it actually does.

== Trivia ==
*This is one of the few versions of Yugi in any media to duel completely without the help of the Pharaoh.
*Yugi only loses his duel against John because of the conscious choice of his monsters. Because of this, John does not take the title King of Games, even though he does rise temporarily to World Champion status.
* Yugi's duel with John in a subsequent short story shows Yugi effortlessly defeating a more experienced John several years later, and is the author's acknowledgement of the fact that Yugi is the stronger character.
