Looks like this manga has had enough of beating around the bush! As much as Kaiba seems to have every possible advantage in this game - powerful monsters, championship pedigree, unlimited resources, and no law enforcement agency that is willing to even be mentioned in his presence - it is time for him to lose. No one is fooled by the added drama of Yami going up against this powerhouse; it's all about HOW he manages to pull off his victory in every other case anyway.
For me, though, there is the added element of this loss compared with Kaiba's previous one. He and Yami were isolated in a school at night last time, but this time he's going to be defeated in a VERY public setting. I'm curious as to how he'll handle it, as well as to how Yami will handle the penalty game this time around. Yami has so far not alluded to the fact that Kaiba is so much worse than the last time they played Duel Monsters, nor has he considered that this could perhaps be his fault. I'm looking forward to finding out how these two come to terms after the bullet hits the bone.
On with the finale!
