Chapter 8
? I pondered whether our powers worked like in Yu-Gi-Oh!, where some Divine cards had priority over others—like how Obelisk’s special ability wouldn’t work on Ra.
This is very specifically how the Egyptian God Cards work in the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga! They do not have priority over each other in this manner in either the anime or the actual, real-world card game.
? I guess if I wanted to try to make myself sound like some sort of hero, I’d say ‘I’ve heard everything, and I’m here to help!’
The particular phrasing that Sagami uses here is likely in reference to a heavily memed line from the manga Magazine Mystery Reportage, or MMR for short, by Ishigaki Yuuki. The manga was extremely meta, starring characters who were modeled after editors at the magazine the manga ran in (that being Weekly Shonen Magazine, from 1990 to 1999), and revolves around those characters investigating paranormal mysteries. Unfortunately, the manga has never received an official English release in any form.
And with that, we’re out of references from this volume! As always, thank you for reading, and see you again in volume five!
