Those of you have read S.E. Hinton's excellent book The Outsiders, have probably noticed similarities between the book and the Yu-Gi-Oh anime.Seto Kaiba represents Dally Winston-tough,mean,and callous,with only one thing in the world that he really cares about.Mokuba represents Johnny Cade,the one thing Kaiba/Dally cares for.Joey's personality is quite reminiscient of Two-Bit Matthews,a tough street kid with a sense of humor.
Anything I missed?

I didn't notice any similarity, but I guess you could view it that way. The Outsiders is probably the last thing on my mind when I watch Yu-Gi-Oh!

Yeah,well I was reading it about the time I started seriously watching Yu-gi-oh,and I couldn't help but compare Kaiba to Dally,and from there,my brain just started working on further comparisons.
Yugi as Ponyboy perhaps?
Tea as Cherry Valance?
Hell,this could be the start of a fanfic...
