The importance of a rival

[Jangles]

Doesn't sound that different from kaiba, yet hes regarded as one of the most complex and well written anime rivals

I feel like you never ever actually have any idea about any topic you talk about but sometimes randomly manage to say something correct so people are compelled to reply to you thinking you are trying to have genuine conversation.

im not sure how else to reply to this, sorry XD

How is Kaiba a villain? he starts as one, sure, especially in the manga(Death-T is honestly peak), but by the time he is properly established as a rival in Battle City, he is at worst neutral

Even when kaiba was clearly established as an outright villain in Death T. he will still considered a rival to yuugi, and he was obsessed with him. therefor, he is the same as zenos

he was never a rival, he was an outright villain with an obsession with the protagonist.
