Yu-gi-oh! RYu-Gi-Oh! R (遊☆戯☆王R), is a manga series that is a spinoff of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. Yu-Gi-Oh! R is published in Shueisha's monthly magazine V-Jump in Japan. The manga is made by Akira Itou. Yu-Gi-Oh! R is an alternate plotline which takes place after the defeat of Marik Ishtar. In Yu-Gi-Oh! R, the kōhai (protg) and younger brother of Pegasus J. Crawford (Maximillion Pegasus in the English anime and manga), Yakou Tenma (Tenma Yakō) decides to avenge his senpai's defeat at the hands of Yugi Mutou (Yugi Moto in the English anime), since Tenma sees blood next to a card, suggesting that Pegasus committed suicide after his loss. He is certain that Pegasus is dead, since the card is of his late wife (Cynthia Crawford or Cyndia Crawford in the Japanese Manga and Anime or Cecelia Pegasus in the English Anime), and Pegasus was very devoted to his wife. The blood on the card and the fact that Pegasus does not have it signifies that he has lost his lifelong dream of resurrecting his wife, and Tenma therefore assumes that he is dead. Tenma takes over KaibaCorp while Seto Kaiba is in the United States. Tenma kidnaps Anzu Mazaki (Ta Gardner in the English anime), prompting Yugi and his friend Katsuya Jonouchi (Joey Wheeler in the English anime) to face Tenma's RA Project (RA stands for "Rebirth of an Avatar") and the duel professors.
