...you know, the Kaiba Corp takeover plan makes no sense. The Big Five (the primary investors not named Kaiba in said corp, or possibly the board of directors, I'm not clear) have offered chairmanship of the board to Pegasus if Pegasus (or a duelist representing him, which would be anybody in the tournament) beats Yuugi in a duel, idea being to broadcast the recording of the duel and thus restore the reputation Kaiba Corp lost when Yuugi beat Seto Kaiba. Let's pretend this makes sense so far.
In his duel with Yuugi, Pegasus is openly cheating.
Approximately every second sentence he says makes sense only if one's hearing the Yuugi-thoughts voiceover that immediately precedes Pegasus's remarks. And half the rest are about how his Millennium Eye lets him read Yuugi's thoughts. Most of the audience for the Big Five's broadcast of this duel won't believe that, because this isn't a world where magic is a Known Thing, but they will believe he's cheating. How could broadcasting that possibly restore reputation points to the Pegasus-led Kaiba Corp?
And then of course Pegasus forgets all about Kaiba Corp and moves the duel to the Shadow Realm, and I sincerely doubt the cameras can see the action...
