Description

Amelda/Alister is one of the characters who have the best portrayal in the entire Yugioh franchise combined. I love how the Doma arc portrays the way he projects his despair, agony, and frustration towards Kaiba brothers.

Although Amelda longs for a revenge and the total destruction of the entire humanity, what he actually needs is anyone with power to listen to him. This ulterior motive begins to reveal itself when he gets Seto to go through a hallucinatory firsthand experience of many war orphans. At the end of the re-match with Kaiba, Amelda even gives Seto a "chance" to prove his ability to save Mokuba from certain death. He wouldn't even have bothered to do so if he only saught to avenge Kaiba brothers. Deep inside Amelda knows that it is pointless to avenge Seto who isn't responsible for the death of his family; and that Seto is courageous and determined enough to make any actual difference once Amelda's desperate outcry is heard.
