Zigfried ups his play by reviving his Valkyrie and forcing both players to predict how many Magic Cards they think they'll play or take serious damage if they're incorrect. Seto uses a combo of Soul Release, Spell Reproduction and Dimension Fusion to Summon five Dragons at once, and together they destroy Brunnhilde and win the duel. | ||

| | ShortSummary = Yami Bakura returns Yugi's belongings, minus the Millennium Ring, as he states he still needs it until Yugi obtains all seven of the Millennium Items. Then, he tries to persuade Yugi to help, using a combination of both facts and lies. However, Yugi refuses to trust him. Yami Bakura tells the Pharaoh that the only way to regain his memory is to play a game (the Ultimate Shadow Game) before departing. Then, Yami Bakura kidnaps Mokuba and sends his soul to the Shadow Realm, which forces Kaiba to duel him. Yami Bakura turns the duel into a Shadow Game, and tells Kaiba that if he wins, then he will return Mokuba's soul. Planning to claim the great power of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon as his own, and to have Kaiba join ''"The Ultimate Shadow Game"'', Bakura attacks using a new deck of Egyptian-themed cards, including his "tablet" trap cards, and his spirit beast, Diabound Kernel.

However, as the Sun rises, Bakura abandons the duel, stating that he had other "business" to attend to. However, he leaves a parting gift for Kaiba |

Thief King Bakura collapses, but manages to place his three Millennium Items into the Millennium stone. Yami Bakura then releases Thief King Bakura from his control, who is confused about what was happening, unable to recall what he was doing. Then he turns into dust, even as he cries out in anguish for help. Yami Bakura's disembodied spirit tells the others he was merely using Bandit Bakura as a pawn.

However, their actions dictate the events of the Memory World, which are manipulated by their game pieces. | ||

| ShortSummary = With All Seven Millennium Items, Thief King Bakura is able to revive Diabound without his tablet and he is stronger than ever, in his 5th and final form. The Millennium Stone then sinks deep into the ground, along with the seven items. Bandit Bakura uses Diabound to allow Aknadin escape, who takes Priest Seto with him. To give Zorc Necrophades enough time to be fully reborn, he separates the Pharaoh and his priests from one another and attacks them with armies of monsters while they are isolated. Karim sacrifices himself, in order to give his remaining power to Shada. Meanwhile, Pharaoh heads back to the palace to find Priest Seto. | ||

| | ShortSummary = Yugi, Joey, and others summon monsters to help the Pharaoh. The ancient characters of his name cannot be read so they cannot tell the Pharaoh what it is. Tea remembers the cartouche pendant and the group focus on it, causing the characters they saw to materialize on its surface. The Pharaoh reads it, regaining his true name, "Atem". Imbued with this power, he revives the three Egyptian Gods and fuses them together to form the Creator of Light, Horakhty. (Horakhty is a level 12, warrior-type Divine-God attribute monster, with infinite attack and defense points; if successfully summoned during a duel, it results in an instant win.) The Pharaoh attacks Zorc directly with Horakhty's Shining Light, which results in Zorc being destroyed forever. Later, the Pharaoh entrusts the Millennium Items to the revived Priest Seto and makes him the next Pharaoh of Egypt. With his role in the past over, Atem's body dissolves even as Priest Seto promises to rule Egypt justly. Atem and his friends leave the Memory World. | | ShortSummary = Yugi, Joey, and others summon monsters to help the Pharaoh.

| ShortSummary = The duel between Yugi and Atem continues. The sum of the attack power of Atem's three Egyptian Gods exceeds ten thousand. Yugi is overwhelmed, but successfully summons one of his most powerful monsters, "Valkyrion The Magna Warrior", by discarding the three smaller Magna Warriors — Alpha, Beta and Gamma — to the graveyard, and he then parries Slifer's Summon Thunder Bullet with a Quick Spell card, "Mirage Magic". When a player's monsters' Attack Power and Defense Power increases or decreases due to an opponent's card effect, "Mirage Magic" negates the effect and recovers the difference in Life Points. Furthermore, Yugi also dodges the attacks of all three Egyptian Gods with the Trap card "Mirage Ruler", forcing Atem to end his turn. Yugi finally makes a counterattack move that threatens the Egyptian Gods. He summons the three smaller Magna Warriors — Alpha, Beta and Gamma — from the graveyard in return for sacrificing "Valkyrion The Magna Warrior", and then activates the Trap Card, "Magnet Force", which transfers the effect of Silfer's Summon Thunder Bullet onto the Egyptian Gods themselves. However, when he launches an attack with "Silent Swordsman", Atem activates his facedown Trap Card, "Mirror Force", destroying every monster Yugi had on the field, seemingly leaving him in an unassailable position. | ||

| ShortSummary = Yugi uses the last card in his hand, "Magnet Reverse", allowing him to summon "Valkyrion The Magna Warrior" back from the graveyard. With "Magnet Force" still in play, Yugi uses Slifer's Summon Thunder Bullet to destroy Obelisk. Moreover, using Valkyrion's special ability, Yugi sacrifices it to summon the three smaller Magna Warriors — Alpha, Beta and Gamma — back to the field, and Slifer's three Summon Thunder Bullets are redirected to both Slifer and Ra, destroying them both. Having successfully defeated the Egyptian Gods, Kaiba himself finally admits that he was wrong about Yugi, and pronounces him as "The King of Games", as he did not believe defeating all three Egyptian Gods simultaneously was possible. However, Atem is not worried at all, admitting that he knew that Yugi would defeat the Egyptian Gods. Atem and Yugi trade blows with "Chimera The Flying Mythical Beast" and "Buster Blader" respectfully, before Atem summons "Swift Gaia The Fierce Knight", whom he discarded to the graveyard on his very first move of the game, and uses it to destroy "Buster Blader". Yugi responds by summoning "Summoned Skull" and "Curse of Dragon", but Atem demonstrates his power to control his deck at will, and summons "Big Shield Gardna" to defend himself, albeit temporarily. In a final act of defiance, Atem gives up half his remaining Life Points to play "Dark Magic Curtain", thus allowing him to summon his most trusted creature, the "Dark Magician". (Note: When this aired in the U.S, the ending said "To Be Concluded" instead of "To Be Continued", thus signifying the end of the series.) | ||

Yugi then plays a Spell Card, "Gold Sarcophagus", which allows Yugi to choose any magic card from his deck and store it in the chest; if Atem ever uses the same card himself, then Yugi can negate the activation of that card. Yugi tries to use "Gandora The Dragon of Destruction" to defeat the "Dark Magician", just how he was able to defeat Yami Bakura, but to no avail.

Yugi forces Atem to sacrifice both of his magicians to protect his Life Points after Yugi uses "Card of Sanctity" to increase the strength of his "Silent Magician". Atem then tries to activate the Spell Card, "Monster Reborn", so he can revive "Slifer the Sky Dragon", but at that moment, Yugi opens the Gold Sarcophagus to reveal the card he sealed away. The card was "Monster Reborn", meaning that neither of them can use that card in this game. It is Yugi's message to the Pharaoh that "Those of the dead should not remain in the world of the living". With the activation of "Monster Reborn" negated, and Slifer the Sky Dragon sent back to the graveyard, Atem is left defenceless. Yugi finally defeats him, but immediately collapses on his knees in tears, distraught at the realisation he will never see Atem again. Despite Atem telling Yugi that he shouldn't cry, Yugi tells Atem that he (Yugi) is weak, and that Atem's strength and bravery was always his goal. Atem comforts Yugi, saying that he displayed true courage in even deciding to duel Atem in the first place, and that he had a power that no-one else could conquer: that of kindness. Yugi's victory has finally set him free. Atem then departs into the afterlife. Then, the Millennium Stone shatters, which causes the seven Millennium Items to fall into the pit left behind. Also, the shrine collapses, and Shadi's spirit is seen here one last time. Everybody barely makes it out in time. As a result of the shrine's destruction, the Millennium Items are buried forever. Yugi tells Joey that, "Sometimes, the end of one adventure is only beginning of another." This concludes the end of the 4-Kids version of the story. | | ShortSummary = Yugi tries his best to fend off the attacks from Atem's most faithful servant, the "Dark Magician", but he is left with just 400 Life Points remaining.

| List of episodes | |
The fifth and final season of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, loosely based on the manga by Kazuki Takahashi, aired in Japan on TV Tokyo from December 24, 2003, to September 29, 2004. The official name of the latter arc of the season is Pharaoh's Memories arc. In the United States, the season aired from August 27, 2005, to June 10, 2006, on Kids' WB and broadcast under the Grand Championship (episodes 1–14) and Dawn of the Duel subtitles.
The season was formerly licensed by 4Kids Entertainment in North America and other English-speaking countries and territories, and was formerly distributed by Funimation on Region 1 home video, and also distributed by Warner Bros. Television Animation on US television when it aired on The WB, from the Kids' WB! Lineup, also in North America. It is now licensed and distributed by 4K Media, Inc.
This arc is divided into two halves: the first fourteen episodes were aired while the final chapters of the manga were being written, with the main antagonist defeated. It follows an original story arc in-which Kaiba hosts a new tournament that is secretly being sabotaged by a skilled duelist named Zigfried, who uses his hacking skills in an attempt to enact revenge against Kaiba. Capsule Monsters was commissioned by 4Kids as an addendum to the first half.
The rest of the season, the climax, features The Pharaoh battling Yami Bakura, while Yugi and his friends travel the memory world to discover the Pharaoh's real name. It aired after the time where the original manga series concluded.
Episode list
Excludes Capsule Monsters. The season would be 52 episodes in length with an episode count of 236 if Capsule Monsters is to be included.
