List of episodes

The fifth and final season of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, loosely based on the manga by Kazuki Takahashi, aired in Japan on TV Tokyo from December 24, 2003, to September 29, 2004. The official name of the latter arc of the season is Pharaoh's Memories arc. In the United States, the season aired from August 27, 2005, to June 10, 2006, on Kids' WB and broadcast under the Grand Championship (episodes 1–14) and Dawn of the Duel subtitles.

The season was formerly licensed by 4Kids Entertainment in North America and other English-speaking countries and territories, and was formerly distributed by Funimation on Region 1 home video, and also distributed by Warner Bros. Television Animation on US television when it aired on The WB, from the Kids' WB! Lineup, also in North America. It is now licensed and distributed by 4K Media, Inc.

This arc is divided into two halves: the first fourteen episodes were aired while the final chapters of the manga were being written, with the main antagonist defeated. It follows an original story arc in-which Kaiba hosts a new tournament that is secretly being sabotaged by a skilled duelist named Zigfried, who uses his hacking skills in an attempt to enact revenge against Kaiba. Capsule Monsters was commissioned by 4Kids as an addendum to the first half.

The rest of the season, the climax, features The Pharaoh battling Yami Bakura, while Yugi and his friends travel the memory world to discover the Pharaoh's real name. It aired after the time where the original manga series concluded.
