Appearances

Kidnapped

Yugi and Tea look for Tag and Anzu.

Three years after Atem left, Tea marries Yugi. A year later, they have twin children. A boy named Tag and a girl named Anzu. One night, when Tag and Anzu were three, they caught them out of bed, an hour past their bedtime as they were pestering Yugi for the Millennium Puzzle story. Tea then covered up the fact that Yugi didn't finish the story by saying that it was all there was. Tea then had the two go to bed after promising to tell them the story about how their "Uncle" Atem and Yugi saved her from a mugger.

Tea was then woken up at 6:00am on Saturday by Tag. They then went back to sleep and when Tag woke up at 8:00, Tea said that he had to wait for her sister before he got to hear the rest of the Millennium Puzzle story. When Tag hit Anzu over the head with a pillow, Anzu cried, and Tea ran in to comfort her. She then chastised Tag for hitting his sister. After hearing the story, Tea promised to tell how Atem and Yugi saved her if the kids ate everything on their plate.

The next day when Tag and Anzu shouted for Tea and Yugi, Tea scolded the two for kicking each other and put them in a time out for five minutes since she saw how Tag regretted hurting his sister, and she knew Anzu would feel the same.

When Tag and Anzu were kidnapped by Rex and Weevil, Tea screamed out for her babies.

Tea and Yugi then went to Joey for help, which they got.

Tea then went with Yugi and Joey to Kaiba's mansion for help where they learned that Rex and Weevil were at an old warehouse.

Tea then banged on the door of Rex and Weevil's hideout as she demanded to have her children back. After Yugi agreed to duel Rex and Weevil in exchange for releasing the children, Tea demanded to know where her children were. She then shouted at Rex and Weevil when they said he was in an abandoned room. Tea then came in and hugged her children. She was then about to take them home when they shouted that they wanted to see Yugi duel. Tea eventually agreed and they watched. After Ra was summoned, Tea tried to call Tag back and questioned how Tag was able to pet him. After that, they went home as Tea carried Anzu.

Tea then had the two go to bed once they got home.

Yu-Gi-Oh! X

Dadnapped!

Tea's happy to see her son return from school.

At the end of Tag's Sophomore year at the Academy, Tea welcomed him home and told him how Yugi was going to teach a class there next year.

A few days later, Tea watched Tag's duel with Mel Tyrone. After Tag's first Life Point drop, Tea demanded that someone call the police, the Governor, or the prime minister. After Tag's Life Points went down to 1700, she yelled about kicking Mel's butt to the days of Atem as Anzu and Grandpa held her back. As Tag's Life Points dropped to 700, Tea began to tear up and fear for her son's life. Just before the last draw of the duel, Tea was crying into Grandpa's shoulder.

Return of Shadi

Millennium Test

Tea later watched the news report about the Domino Museum curator's death with the rest of her family.

Birthday for Two

Tea scolds Tag for playing with Yugi's Duel Disk.

On Tag and Anzu's seventeenth birthday, Tea told about when the two were born, where she screamed for the kids to be taken out of her. Tag then came out first and was followed a few minutes later by Anzu. Tea then cooed at her two children. At a birthday party in the park, Tea then told the story of how when Tag played with Yugi's Duel Disk at two, he summoned a Dark Magician Girl and thought she was pretty until Tea arrived and scolded Tag for playing with his daddy's Duel Disk. Tea then walked off with Tag. It was also revealed in the story of Tag's first duel that Tea was originally wanted to stop Tag's duel with Grandpa after he was attacked by Curse of Dragon, and after he won, Tea reminded him to use his inside voice.

Journey to the Past

Tea later attended a party to celebrate Tag defeating Mel in his revenge scheme, Death-T.

New Member of the Family

Tea tells her children that she's pregnant.

Shortly after the victory party, Tea found out she was pregnant, and she told Yugi, Tag, and Anzu. Tea then told the rest of the gang. After that, Mana stuck her head inside Tea's womb to see the baby before she was ordered out by Mahad.

Duel Monsters Spirit Day

On Duel Monsters Spirit Day, Tea met Mana as a Dark Magician Girl. She then told everyone that the baby was nice and big and asked if they wanted to know what the baby was. She then shouted at Mana that she wanted to tell them when she nearly told. Tea then apologized before telling everyone that the baby was a girl. She then made lunch for everyone before a duel. After the duel, Tea met Mahad and Mana's mom Anru, as Magician's Valkyria. Tea then thanked her when she wished her and the baby a happy life. Tea then agreed with Magician Valkyria's remark about kids.

New Duelist Kingdom

At a general get together at the Game Shop, Tea made a vote to decide whether to name the baby Mana or Little Tea. She ended up losing with everyone preferring Mana. After Tag lost his video duel with Pegasus, Tea learned that Pegasus wanted Tag and his friends to participate in a new Duelist Kingdom and shouted for Tag to turn the DVD off, but Tea's soul ended up captured to force Tag to participate in the New Duelist Kingdom.

High School Adventures

Tea walks to school with Tea.

Yugi's and Atem's friend from childhood and currently a sophomore. Before the story begins, she had just gotten over her crush on Atem but is still almost completely oblivious to Yugi. However, according to Mana, it appears that she's slowly developing feelings for Yugi (or realizing that she has them). When Tea was drugged by a rival classmate, Yugi saved Tea, and Tea began to wonder if Yugi's the man for her. Tea was then saved by Yugi again when she was held captive by the card bomber, and she was able to come to terms with her emotions, and she and Yugi became a couple. Tea snuck to Egypt with Tristan and Mokuba as she didn't want to be away from him... Forgetting to tell her parents that she was doing that. Shortly after coming home, Tea advised Mai about making a choice between Valon and Joey.

The Little Dark Magician Girl

Tea and Yugi during the fight with Vivian.

Tea's a Magician of Faith and a very old friend of Mana's. She's also friends with Yugi. On the 5,000th Anniversary of the Ka World's separation from the Human World, Tea went with Yugi to look for Mana and found her. Tea then asked why she always came up there since all she had learned about humans from history class made her scared of them. When Mana pointed this out, Tea protested that she wasn't afraid when Mana pretended to see a human, and Tea jumped into Yugi's arms for protection, and he fell over, unable to hold her up. Mana then showed Tea a fork she found, and she and Yugi went with Mana to visit Joey and find out what it was.

When Tea heard from Joey that the fork was called a dinglehopper and was used to comb hair, Tea asked why humans didn't just use combs. Tea then went with Mana and Yugi back home when Mana remembered about the concert.

Tea and Yugi then watched Torunka lecture Mana about missing the celebration and made fun of the fact that Tristan was already the laughing stock of the whole kingdom before the incident. This earned her a chastisement from Mahad. When Yugi accidentally spilled the beans about where they were, Tea was just as nervous as Yugi, and they left with Mana. They then arrived at Mana's treasure cave. Tea then assured Mana that nothing was wrong with her, and she just saw things differently. As Mana then explained how she wanted to be part of the Human World, she assaulted Tea's feet with a small tickle fest.When Mana went up to look at a boat, Tea followed her with Yugi, Mahad, and Tristan.

In the Human World, Tea defended Mana by saying she wasn't bad as Tristan made her out to be. She was then protected by Mahad's force field when a bad storm began brewing.

Tea eventually made it to the shore with the others as Mana dragged a human she'd saved from drowning to the shore and looked at him lovingly. Tea was touched by the story and was reminded of the story of Pyramus and Thisbe. Tea then returned home with the others.

Two weeks later, shortly after Mana's birthday, Tea and Yugi told Mana that they had a surprise for her at the cave, so they headed there.

They then showed Mana her birthday present, a Puzzle piece they found in the wreckage of the prince's ship. Tea and Yugi were then ordered out by Torunka when he arrived. They were then escorted away by Mahad after Torunka destroyed Mana's collection as he felt that she should be alone at that moment.

While they were talking, Tea smacked Tristan for telling Torunka about Mana falling in love with the prince. She was about to hit Mahad too for always blaming himself when Mahad grabbed Tea's wrist and pointed at Mana. They then followed Mana to the Dragon Lady, Vivian and saw her and Mahad get turned into humans. They then helped them to the shore.

They then set the two down as they recovered. When Tristan got scared and jumped into Yugi's arms when Mahad shouted at Yugi, Tea pointed out that it was just Mahad. When Joey said that he could bring the prince there to meet Mana and allow her to remain a human forever, Tea pointed out that Mana should probably get some clothes first. Overhearing Mana's deal with Vivian, they knew that they had to get Mana and the prince together in three days, or she would belong to Vivian, body and soul. She then objected to telling Torunka as she knew that the only way Mana would be happy now was to be with Atem. She then said that Tristan should keep an eye on her and Mahad as Tristan was the one who spilled the beans.

That night, they met with Tristan, and Tea told him to calm down. She then explained that a contract Mana signed was iron clad and there was no way out, and she shouted at Tristan to not be so negative about believing that they were all going to die. That morning, when Yugi and Tea learned that Mana and Atem hadn't kissed yet, Tea called out "Battle-Ox plop" in frustration. Tea then told Joey that they hadn't kissed yet.

That night, during a boat ride between Atem and Mana, Tea agreed that they had to tweak the circumstances. When Tristan began singing, Tea made her staff into a make-shift guitar for the strings. As they watched everything coming together, Tea commented on how romantic it was, and she and Yugi then ended up holding hands. Tea then told Tristan to grow up after the boat they were on capsized, ruining the moment.

On the way back to the palace, Tea reminded Joey that there was no way to get Mana out of the contract and was taken back home by Yugi. They then went back to the Ka World and picked up the Puzzle piece they gave Mana, which had survived the cave's destruction.

When Yugi and Tea came back and explained their plan to the gang, Tea said that she thought Mana stood a good chance of winning based on the previous night, so she told Mana to grab the nicest dress she could find.

When Tea learned that Atem was marrying someone else, by sunset that day, Tea angrily asked how Atem could do that since she thought he loved Mana. When the two learned from Joey that Atem was marrying a disguised Vivian, Tea went with Yugi, Mahad, and Mana to get to the wedding ship and save Atem.

Tea was then told to stay behind by Mahad, along with Yugi. Tea and Yugi then helped Atem and his human friends enter the Ka World to help Mana when she got captured by Vivian.

Tea then confronted Vivian with the others. She however lost some of her nerve when Vivian turned herself into the Mythic Dragon. Tea did manage to keep her cool and attack Vivian.

Tea and Yugi then defended Mana when she pulled the Grand Magic Scepter from Vivian's forehead, and Atem finished her off with Horakhty.

After Vivian's defeat, Tea went to the Human World with everyone else. When Mana and Mahad were turned into permanent humans, Yugi and Tea had tears in their faces as they left.

A month later, Tea attended Atem and Mana's wedding, and she was kissed good-bye on the cheek by Mana.

The Little Dark Magician Girl II: Return to the Ka World

Tea as she looks for Tag.

Two years after the defeat of Vivian, Tea, along with Yugi and Tristan, went to a party to celebrate the birth of Mana's daughter, Melody. Melody then giggled and waved at them once they arrived. They then Morgana's attempt to threaten Melody in order to get the Scepter and then witnessed Mana, Atem, and Torunka stopping her. After that, Morgana vanished, and Mana swore that until Morgana was found, neither she nor Melody would even enter the sea. Tea and Yugi protested at first until Mana explained that it was the only way to keep Melody safe, so they reluctantly left with Torunka.

Over the next twelve years, Tea and Yugi got married and had twin children, a boy named Tag and a girl named Anzu. When Tag and Anzu were two, Melody went missing and Mana had herself turned back into a Dark Magician Girl to look for her. As she went to look around Atlantica, Tag met Mana, and Tea showed up and scolded Tag for running in front of her when she told him not to. She then said hi to Mana as Yugi arrived with Anzu. The whole family then promised to help Mana find Melody. When they realized that the Scepter had been stolen, aparently by Melody, Tea went with Mana, along with the rest of her family to follow two Humanoid Slimes Mana remembered from Morgana's attack.

When they found Morgana's lair, Mana told them to tell Torunka, but they both refused as friends are always there for each other. When Mana then had a recently arrived Joey and Mai do it, Tea exclaimed that they were doomed. When Melody then gave the Scepter to Morgana out of hurt for Mana not telling her the truth, she, Yugi, and Tea were trapped inside of a cave by Morgana. Melody then cried over what she did as Tea and Yugi tried to comfort her.

As Tea continued to comfort Melody, they were freed when Mahad's son Manar, and a friend of theirs named Duke caused Diabound to smash through the wall and knock himself out. They then arrived at the sight of a battle between Morgana and all of their friends. Tea was then stopped from helping Melody when she was forced to bow down to Morgana. She was freed when Melody grabbed the Scepter and gave it back to Torunka.

The next day, Tea joined in the party to celebrate the reunion of their enlarged families. She then watched Melody and Manar get into a water fight with Tag and Anzu. They then covered Tag and Anzu's eyes as Mana and Atem kissed. When Manar prepared to show off some magic, Tea insisted that it not be anything scary for Tag and Anzu's sake.

Yugi Moto

Tea on her ride with Yugi.

The princess of Agrabah, and the only daughter of Sultan Shimon. She longs to be free of the life she's expected to lead as princess. Her only two friends are only her lady in waiting, Mai, and her Ka, Harpie Lady. Also, after rejecting her latest suitor, with Mala eating his pants, Tea talks to her father about how she hates being forced into marriage and when she does marry, she wants it to be for love. She also admitted that she was tired of spending her entire life inside the palace and admitted that if that was the cost of being a princess, then she didn't want to be a princess anymore. She then ran away three days before her sixteenth birthday even after Mai and Mala begged her not to.

Once at the market place, she's saved from losing her right hand by Yugi, Joey, and Tristan when she gave an apple to a hungry little boy. To be saved, she pretended to be a little crazy to go along with Yugi's story, and they ran off after Joey dropped a few apples he stole.

After befriending the three orphaned boys, Tea grew to have feelings for Yugi due to both of them feeling trapped in the social ques they were born in. Yugi and Tea then ran from Seto and his men when Yugi was captured, and Tea was revealed to be the princess. When Yugi was taken away by Seto on Anubis' orders, Anubis informed Tea that Yugi had been beheaded for alleged kidnapping. After learning this, Tea ran off crying.

Shortly after that, Tea told her father what had happened.

After Shimon confronted Anubis about what happened, Tea said that at least when she's forced to marry, she'll have the power to get rid of Anubis.

When a new suitor of Tea's, Prince Atli Ababwa, arrived at the palace and said that he would win her, Tea was insulted and shouted that she wasn't a prize to be won before walking off.

Prince Atli then arrived at the balcony and tried to talk to her, but Tea completely refused. She then recognized his tiny stature and began talking to him about how he reminded her of someone she met, but when Prince Atli stated that he couldn't have been there, Tea admitted that he was probably right, and then told Atli to leave. As he did this, he apologized for thinking of her as a prize and said he'd go now and Tea called out as he stepped over the balcony when Atli returned on his Dark Magician friend, Mahad's, traveling circle. She then accepted going on a ride with Atli. On the ride, Tea ended up falling in love with him, and while watching the fireworks in China, she tricked him into revealing that he was Yugi, the boy she met in the market place, but Atli simply stated that he just dressed as a commoner, and Tea accepted that.

After Atli takes Tea home, Tea home, she determines to marry him when Shimon arrives and says she'll marry Anubis. Atli then arrives and destroys Anubis' staff, revealing that Anubis was controlling him with it. After Anubis runs off, Tea explains to her father that she's chosen Atli as his suitor.

Tea and Atli then arrived at the menagerie together as Shimon announced him as Tea's fiance. Soon afterwards, Anubis arrives and reveals that he's used a yami to become Sultan. When he commands Shimon and Tea to bow to him, Tea refuses. After Anubis turns himself into a sorcerer, he uses his new power to force Tea and Shimon to bow before him. He then reveals to Tea that Atli isn't a prince who pretended to be a pesent named Yugi, he was a pesent named Yugi who pretended to be a prince named Atli. Tea then watched in horror as Yugi and his friends, Joey and Tristan, were tossed into a pillar and sent off to the north.

After Yugi was sent away, Tea was made a slave of Anubis'. She then demand that Bakura leave her father alone, which he did. Anubis then offered her a proposal of marriage, but Tea refused. She was then fearful that Anubis' control of Yugi's only remaining friend, Yami, would force her to fall in love with him. Later, when she saw Yugi standing far off, she pretended to fall in love with Anubis to keep him busy. Eventually, she had to kiss him, but Anubis still managed to find out Yugi was still alive. She then tried to grab the Millennium Puzzle for Yugi, but Anubis encased her in an hourglass that was slowly but steadily filling. Eventually, after tricking Anubis into turning himself into a yami, Yugi freed Tea, and she was returned to her true status and normal attire after Anubis was trapped in the Pyramid of Light.

After Anubis' defeat, Tea hugged Yugi and forgave him for lying as she easily understood why he did it. After Yugi gave up his chance to be with Tea to free Yami like he promised, she received a hug from Yami, and Shimon changed the law to allow Tea to marry whoever she wanted whenever she wanted, and she chose Yugi. Tea then ended up as part of Yami's group hug. Yugi and Tea then flew around Agrabah to celebrate their engagement.

The Return of Anubis

Tea forgives Yugi.

A month after the defeat of Anubis, Yugi arrived with his friends and gave Tea a jeweled flower. Tea then put it in a vase and kissed Yugi. Tea then explained that her father wanted him to come to dinner. She then assured him that he wasn't in trouble and helped him pull Tristan away from a... Playful... Mala. Tea then scolded Mala like she was still a baby.

Later that day, Tea noticed that Yugi seemed to be acting oddly and asked if he was hiding something, but Yugi assured her that everything was fine. She then joined in welcoming Yami back home. Yami then gave Tea a wooden monkey. After catching up with Yami, Tea invited Yami to have dinner with them.

Tea later had some of Yami's cooking and smiled as Yugi was named as Shimon's new vizier. When Bakura arrived and Yugi stood up for him, Tea was hurt that Yugi had kept another secret and told another lie. She then shouted at him after Yugi was put in charge of keeping an eye on Bakura and ran off crying.

That night, in her room, Bakura arrived and, using reverse psychology, explained to Tea that he saved Yugi's life in the market place, which was why Yugi stood up for him, and he got her to forgive Tea with even more reverse psychology. After that, Tea ran down and explained to Yugi that she forgave him, and the two then played around for a little before they went to the veranda and kissed.

When Yugi apologized to her again, Tea stopped him and told him to shut up, and they were about to kiss when Yami started recording them, and everyone else was there. Bakura eventually forced everyone away, and Tea asked if Yugi was sure about Bakura, and Atem replied that he was sure about the two of them, and they kissed.

The next day, after talking to Yugi, Tea admitted that she could try and trust Bakura too. Bakura then arrived and suggested that Yugi patch things up with Shimon with a nice carpet ride. Tea then agreed with that idea and the idea to not bring Yami since she knew Yugi needed some alone time with Shimon to patch things up. Tea then admitted to Bakura that she was wrong about him and kissed him on the cheek.

Soon afterwords, Tea brought Shimon to Yugi and Mahad and convinced him to give Bakura a chance, and give Yugi a second chance. Tea then wished them good luck, and when Yami, Joey, and Tristan arrived, Tea explained that Yugi needed alone time with Shimon to patch things up. They agreed, and Joey and Tristan then began making pigs of themselves with food they had brought while Yami nervously asked if Tea would like to join them, but Tea reclined.

Tea was at some later point imprisoned by a freed Anubis and his new lackey, Rex Raptor, along with Yami, Joey, Tristan, Mahad, Shimon, Mai, and Mala. Anubis then turned himself into Tea and helped frame Yugi for the aparent murder of Shimon. Anubis the gloated about what happened to Tea and explained that he, as Tea, sentenced Yugi to death, and Tea shouted at Bakura for his part in this. Tea then tried to bite his fingers when he carressed her face and avoided looking at the Rod of Light as Anubis shouted at her. At dawn the next day, after Anubis left, Tea shouted at Bakura again until he started trying to free Yami from the sphere he was imprisoned in. When Bakura then tried throwing the sphere on the ground to try and break it, Tea suggested lifting it higher. This worked as Yami was freed and saved Yugi. Tea was then freed with everyone else and hugged Yugi hard. Tea then explained to Yugi how Bakura saved him, and she went with Yugi and the others to destroy the Pyramid of Light to stop Anubis once and for all.

As they tried to grab the Pyramid, Tea managed to save her father from a treasure chest Anubis had conjurred to bribe Rex into releasing him. Eventually, Anubis realized they were there and tried to destroy them. Tea tried to go for the Pyramid first after Anubis turned into his yami form, but she just barely avoided getting blasted into cinders. Tea then spent most of the fight trying to wake Yami up as Anubis caused the ground to split open, and she, Joey, Tristan, Mai, and the unconscious Yami were on a small mountain of unbroken earth. When Bakura arrived with Mala and was blasted by Anubis, Yami used Mala to get everyone to more stable ground. Tea then witnessed Bakura destroy the Pyramid of Light, which also destroyed Anubis. After that, Tea saw Yami save Yugi and Bakura, and she mourned for Bakura until it turned out he was still alive, just very, very beaten up. That night, when Yugi turned down Shimon's offer to be the vizier in favor of seeing the world, Tea said that she would too, much to Bakura's annoyance.
