In the dub and manga, the name is instead Maximillion Pegasus. In all Japanese versions, Pegasus is known as Pegasus J. In the English dub of Bonds Beyond Time, Pegasus is portrayed with an extremely vain personality.īeing an American, Pegasus has a tendency to use English words when speaking in the Japanese version This was shown during his Duel against Vellian Crowler and Jean-Louis Bonaparte. Years later in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, Pegasus dropped his ruthless facade completely and became more laid back and jovial. When Kaiba attempts to use the duel disk prototypes, Pegasus pretends that he's too weak to carry the device, forcing Kaiba to use Pegasus' arena. He pretends to be discouraged by minor upsets in his duels with Yugi and Kaiba, then acts as if his strategies are purely luck-based. In the manga, Pegasus often puts on a timid facade to trick his enemies.

However, he allowed the Duel to continue, presumably to see how Joey had grown as a Duelist.Īlso, Pegasus displays great humility after his defeat although he only had to free Solomon, Mokuba and Seto Kaiba if he lost to Yugi, he still gave him the prize money, having read Joey’s mind and realizing that Joey needed the money to save his sister’s eyesight.
In the anime, he was somewhat light-hearted in this aspect, simply making fun of Keith while dropping him with a trapdoor. Despite cheating with the Millennium Eye himself, Pegasus showed a dislike for people who cheat for personal gain, such as Bandit Keith (who cheated right in front of him). Furthermore, Pegasus himself honors his pledge to Yugi Muto claiming to be both "duty bound" and a "man of word", releasing the souls of Solomon Muto, Seto and Mokuba Kaiba before being defeated in a Shadow Game by Yami Bakura. From this, his cheating to beat Yugi and kidnapping Solomon, Mokuba, and Seto Kaiba becomes somewhat understandable. Because he needed KaibaCorp's Solid Vision and thus needed KaibaCorp, the deal with the Big Five is that he be given control if he beat Yugi, to restore Kaiba Corp's reputation as Yugi beat Kaiba. Not only is Pegasus an excellent business man, his motivations for acting as the above was the resurrection of his deceased lover Cecelia. This impression is changed when his true motive is revealed. Pegasus at first comes across as a cheater with a thirst for collecting souls and achieving his ambitions. Cartoons are the inspiration for many of his cards, such as the Toon monsters. Pegasus is interested in cartoons, especially Funny Bunny, which he watched every Saturday morning while growing up in America. Pegasus is also notable for his foppish manner, dandified appearance, and effeminate hairstyle, all of which have led to him being referred to as "cutie-pie" (by Bandit Keith) and an "overdressed prima donna" (by Joey Wheeler). When sufficiently provoked, he can have a temper. Pegasus has a habit of calling Yugi "Yugi-boy" and Kaiba "Kaiba-boy". Pegasus is depicted as a well-mannered yet overly dramatic man obsessed with cartoons, concealing the appearance of a ruthless businessman and gamer, and yet a man of his word.
