The Memory World:

     Okay, let's see if I can present this spoiler with some semblance of coherency, shall we? I'll try my best, I promise... It would probably help if you've read the Zoku Necrophadisu spoiler.

The Maze

The Memory World is basically the Ancient Egyptian arc of the series. Yugi and Co enter Yami's soul maze in hopes of finding the "true door" (door leads to the Memory World) with the help of Bobasa and the Ankh. If you dunno who Bobasa is, he's basically Shadi's henchman. Looks like a walking, talking, dark-skinned balloon and he's charged with the safekeeping of all seven Items.       I think it's the same door that Shadi was looking for at the end of Duelist Kingdom and it's the door that Yami B's looking for now (in search of that "Pharaoh's power" Malik mentioned).

There's a funny little scene where Jou draws a little smiley-face on one of the doors of Yami's soul-maze so he can keep track of which doors they've checked. The rest of the gang comments that only Jou would draw graffiti on other people's souls.  ^_____^ There's an equally funny doujinshi where Yami B. comes in after and draws Yugi's hairstyle on the smiley-face.      Anyway, they do eventually find "The True Door" (**cue trumpet music**) just by clearing their minds and concentrating or something. @_@

If I understood correctly, the other doors were all  false leads... none of them would've lead to the Memory World... The Maze is actually supposed to shift according to the insecurities of the invaders. Yugi figures out that the more lost and hopeless the group feels, the worse the traps become.       Bobasa goes on to mention something about the Puzzle's power being connected to unity and Yugi and Co. pile their hands together and wish reeeaally hard to see Yami (Ah, memories of the very first duel against Kaiba with the cheesy happy-face Tea scribbled on their hands). Lo and behold, The Door appears!

     FYI, one of the other rooms that were not monster/trap filled contained a more recent memory: Duelist Kingdom. Seto perched on top of castle ramparts, asking Yami if he's willing to risk Seto's life in order to win (what happened to all the Kuriboh?!). Yugi has a near breakdown at the reminder.

We get a sense of just how important Yugi and Co. can be when Yami and Thief Bakura face off in one of their numerous show-downs. Yugi comes in at the last moment and gives Yami just enough strength to kill Thief Bakura (yes, I said "kill". I'm pretty sure throwing up blood and then collapsing over your horse with a creepy blank-eyed stare qualifies as being dead).        Yami Bakura (modern one) upon seeing this, says something interesting... Basically, to paraphrase... "Dammit, this wasn't supposed to happen. You were supposed to get rid of the pharaoh tonight!" O_o Alarm bells! Is that true? Yami B. doesn't seem to have lost his memories like Yami has, so you'd think he'd know what he's talking about... x_x

     In any case, Yami B. doesn't seem too concerned. Right after that, he goes off and says something like: "Oh well, Necrophadisu's on the move."

     Apparently he was right not to worry. Thief Bakura, true to form, gets resurrected (hands up, how many people saw that coming?). Necrophadisu, it seems, has the ability to rewind the Memory World (**Snicker** I can just imagine him sitting on a couch with a remote control and clicking away... Ffw! Rew! Slow mo!). So Necrophadisu does his rewind thing and stops just before Yugi can reach Yami. He says that Yugi's presence was an unforeseen interference that should never have occurred (which is probably true). Then Yami B. intercepts the modern-time cast to ensure that they stay away. 

     Without backup this time around, Yami loses!
