Volume 4
Huh. I didn't realize this, but volume 4 has more of the story that continues into volume 5 then I thought. There's really only one chapter that isn't directly releated, and it's tagentially related, in that it leads into the next chapter, where the Kaiba's Revenge arc starts.
Duel 25: Joey and Yugi go to a video arcade, and Yugi fights some guy and keeps beating him. Naturally, this guy wants to beat on Yugi, and does! Then he steals the millenium puzzle, and Joey goes to get it. The game this time involves knives.
Duel 26: Altough all the rest of the chapters form one story, I'm going to treat them seperetly, since they are set up in bite size chunks. Anyhoo, Mokuba invites Yugi and Joey to the new Kaiba arcade. They go, and once there, Mokuba invites them to a game, where they spin the wheel, and no matter what food lands in front of them, they have to eat it all. Well, naturally, the food's posioned, so Yugi has to save Joey.
Duel 27: Kaiba has challenged Yugi's grandfather to a game of Duel Monsters (changed from Magic and Wizards in volume 2). Grandpa loses, and Kaiba tears up grandpa's Blue Eyes White Dragon. He then almost causes Grandpa to have a heart attack, to force Yugi to play his sick game. Yugi agrees, and thus starts Death T-1.
Duels 28 and 29: This game's a bit like laser tag, only deadly! (Yeah, surprsing for a kid's manga, isn't it! :P) Fortunatly, Téa got hired to work there, and helps the gang (oh yeah, Tristan's there too, with his sister's baby, who's REALLY weird. Quiter a pervy little guy. I hope I never see him again) out when they find out that the opposite team's guns are deadly.
Duel 30: The gang is strapped into electric chairs, and sent along a haunted mansion like ride, where if they make a sound, they're electrocuted. The baby saves them, in the most disgusting way possible. Yick.
Duel 31: This one's pretty good. First the gang is caught by their hands in guillotine. I wouldn't've put my hand in all at the same time, what with Kaiba been a lunatic. They escape that trap, only to get into another one. This is probably the most surprising element, they have to fight a serial killer! They have to fight him in a well of oil....well, Joey does.
Duel 32: This is the chapter that really cements the gang's friendship, which is ironic since Kaiba's sure they'll turn on each other. They're stuck in a featureless room, and while they're waiting for Kaiba to start the game, Téa draws a smiley face that goes over all of their hands (c'ept the baby). Suddenly, blocks start dropping, threatening to crush the gang. They escape....well, all of them, except for Tristan.
I really liked this volume, but not as much as the godly volume that follows. But this shouldn't detract from this volume, volume 5 is just THAT good. However, I don't think anyone will be disapointed with this volume. The gang's friendship is growning, and this ordeal just brings them closer together. It's really, really well done.
