Dear Jou,
Hey Jou! I'll never forget you! You know, it hasn't really been an easy life after I got the Millennium Puzzle, but you've been there for me until the very end. You helped me through Duelist Kingdom, Duke's Dungeon Dice Monsters, Battle City, When Mai was gone and Yami was the only one left, and even the Kaiba Grand Prix and when Yami's memories returned! You've done so much for me, and I wanted to do so much more for you. Have fun in America. I'm planning on staying at the Kame Game Shop, but changing the hours since I'm going to go to a small college just for the fun of it. When my Ji-chan is going to pass, I'm going to work the store full time, since Duke and my Ji-chan have a contract together. I'll miss you Jou.
Your friend,
Yugi

Dear Jou,
…I forgive you. Even with all your perverted remarks, I forgive you. You should true friendship and loyalty to your friends, and even through thick and thin you found some way to get help for us. You were like and older brother to all of us Jou, not just Shizuka. Have fun in America. I'm going to my dance school in America as well, though mine is in New York. Aren't you going to Oregon? I heard that it is very beautiful there. Well, have fun on your ventures Jou!
Love,
Anzu Mazaki

Dear Jou,
Hey buddy. I hear you're going to America. We still have to keep in touch even though, k Jou? You're my best friend in the whole world, so don't go changing. If you ever have someone who you need to beat up, just give me a call and I'll be there faster then a speeding bullet…damn, I think I just stole something from Superman…hey! Isn't Superman American? Say 'hi' to him for me! …Yeah, I know, I'm being stupid. But just remember me this way, 'cause I won't go changing I you don't!

Jou,
I know, you're stunned that I didn't call you a mutt or a puppy. Truth is, you had enough guts to come up to me and ask for a yearbook signing. Yeah, you're probably thinking 'why didn't he say something scornfully'…well, Jou, I've given up on name calling. I have a future that doesn't accept name calling. A boring future. Yours is probably going to be more interesting. I've always wondered why I couldn't have ever been like you. You were belabored (beaten) by your father, your parents divorced, and your sister and you have been separated for almost half of your life. My life was almost the same, except both my parents died. Never would have guessed it, huh? At least your father and mother are still alive.
You probably want to know how I know that you were belabored. First, you never wanted people to come to your house, second, you hid your emotions of hate for your family hidden, third, you are a good fighter, and fourth, people who are belabored know when someone else has been belabored. Yes, you heard me correctly. I was belabored. That was why I had not feelings when I first dueled Yugi. It wasn't that I was hiding them…it was that I didn't have them. I had them taken away from me.
So don't go complaining about anything, for you have survived longer then me.

Dear Jou,
What is up? I have nothing to really say to you, except I'm sorry. So, I'm sorry.
Otogi
…………
Dear Jou,
Yeah, I'm here. You know, I've never really told you I'm sorry. Even though Marik was banished to the Shadow Realm, I was kinda responsible for a lot of things. So I'm sorry. Anyways, onto more important matters, what are you doing after graduation? I heard you were going to America. Nice choice. I'm going to an archeology school on the Kurile Islands. Come visit some time! Yeah, anyways, even though we will never see each other again, lets no try to remember all the bad times and only the good ones! Like seeing the teachers' faces when we stuck the tin foil linings in their microwave? That thing blew up! Sure we got three weeks of detention after a four day suspension…but hey, it was worth it! LOL.

Dear Jounouchi,
Let's see…how many days have we known each other? About 1095 days? Well, the is the limit for how long we are not allowed to know each other! But hey, in three years, we'll all have different ideals and relationships and friends. Just don't forget me, alright Jounouchi? Also, keep up your good skills in dueling Jounouchi!

Jounouchi smiled as he closed his Yearbook. His brown eyes were filled as warm tears lined them. His hand wiped his eyes before he would let them fall.
No, everyone, I won't forget you. It would be so hard to not forget you, and as you all know, I don't like hard things. Unless it is dueling, 'cause that's a challenge as well as a hard thing. Hah…
Yugi, you know I would never forget you. I was there with you through almost everything. Hell, I was there when everything happened. I can still remember like as if it was yesterday, just sitting there injured from that stupid Hall Moniter- -I don't even remember his name anymore- -and then you came and defended Honda and me even though you got beat worse then us. Sorry you had to go through that. Sorry you had to go through watching everyone you have ever known get hurt. It wasn't fair to you. But don't worry, I'm still there.
Kaiba, do you know how annoying you have made my life? But…I kinda understand now. I'm sorry you got beat Kaiba, and because I now know of what you said, I think we can become friends. Maybe talk about our problems. We would understand each other. …To bad it's too late for that.
Honda, I know that you have my back, and you know that you have mine. Just don' go off doing something stupid just because we won't be seeing each other anymore. And Otogi…even though I hate you for dressing me up as a dog- -thank God Kaiba didn't see that- -I still owe you a lot. You and Honda both looked after my sister, and just because I was being a protective older brother, I know you both meant well.
Malik, I will never forget that moment. Damn, we even had pictures. It was soooo worth that punishment. We got our revenge…even though it was our fault for not studying for our tests. Looking back I know it was stupid, but I wish that we could do it again just once more just for the fun of it. Just to see their faces and laugh once more. Ryou, I'll be good. And I'll count down the three years and all 1095 days until we see each other again. I'm sure I'll make something of my life by then. Have fun now.
Anzu…I will never forget the color of your panties. I'm laughing even now as I say this. The Panty-Tank never failed until you broke it. Ahh…good times, good times. Heh…I guess I did act like an older brother for all of you. I just don't like seeing my friends get hurt. And yeah, I love you too.
