Yami Yugi

Yami Yugi, also referred to as the Nameless Pharaoh, is the spirit of Pharaoh Atem that has been sealed in the Millennium Puzzle. He is the main protagonist of the original and second series, along with Yugi Muto.

Together with Yugi he holds the title "King of Games", by winning in the Duelist Kingdom, Battle City, Grand Championship and Battle City V2 (in GX anime).

After Yugi Muto solved the Millennium Puzzle, Yami Yugi resided in Yugi's body and would take possession of it when Yugi or his friends were in danger. After Yugi became fully aware of Yami's existence, Yugi could voluntarily give control of his body to the Pharaoh.

Physical Appearance
As he exists in Yugi's body, his appearance is largely the same as Yugi's, although many alterations are made when Yami takes control such as his eyes. The main difference is that Yami Yugi looks more like a teenager than Yugi, is taller and has a deeper voice. His eyes are also narrower with a more intense, determined gaze. He also appears more muscular, though his purple eyes remain the same.

Yami Yugi's hair features multiple layers including long blond crocked, pointy locks for his fringe. Unlike Yugi, some of the blond locks jut upwards. The rest of his hair features five large spikes colored black with red (with a hint of magenta) rims all along the edges.

Yami Yugi's attire consists of a his outfit consists of the standard male Domino High uniform complete with a closed buckled collar and a large set of Ankh cufflinks on his sleeves, which weren't present when Yugi was in control. It is also noted that his uniform becomes a darker shade of blue when Yami Yugi assumes control. Also, during Duelist Kingdom, Yugi's blue and white sneakers would turn into solid blue boot-like shoes when Yami takes control. The Ankhs were later removed. Unlike Yugi, Yami Yugi sometimes wears the jacket as a cape, which could be due to actually wearing one when he was Pharaoh.
