Years after Yugi's legendary battles, the game is so popular that special institutions dedicated to the art of the Duel have sprung up all over the world. Join Jaden Yuki and his pals at the Academy for the adventures of the next generation of Yu-Gi-Oh!
It's the ultimate grudge match between Duel Academy's most promising students, Jaden and Chazz! Can Jaden's Elemental Heroes defeat the overwhelming power of Chazz's dragon deck? As the entire student body watches the match, no one notices another duel taking place in a dark, abandoned building on the other end of the island. It's a Shadow Game, and the stakes are more than honor--they're life and death!
