Bakura was born in Ancient Eqypt as we all know, when he was a kid his village was slaughtered while he off getting water and their blood and bones where used to create the Millienium Items (explains why he is such a psychopath).
So in a way he has a right to own the Millienium Items, it was Yami's father who did this (I wonder what crazy hair style he has, mmm...rolfl) and Yami has no memory of this cause that is locked along with his power. This is all not in the English version because of Kids4 redesigning it for children which is really boring.

YGO is not redisigned for children. YGo is aimed for children and to sell cards in both versions,

I agree that in a way that YGO is aimed to sell the cards, but the anime and the manga is not necessarily aimed for children in Japan. There are some parts in the anime and manga (especially the manga) that are not intended for children's viewing because of violence and profanity. The dubbed version of the series is edited to aim for children.

As to where the info can be found for YGO manga, there is Jenniyah's Scantalations for translated YGO manga, including from the Memory Arc ( memories of the past being relived). The past about Bakura can be read in the manga chapter 308.
For the anime, there's Janime.

I asked around, Most of the stuff this guy said isn't true.
YGO is aimed for children. (Duel Monsters.) Anime news network and best anime rates it as "Y7"
Japanese have more violence in their children stuff

... I'm going to say a few things... In Japan, children can buy porn at the age of 8. Their culture is very different from the sheltered bullshit you get in this country. In Japan, things can have nudity and still be aimed at children. It's like their stuck in the american 80s almost, only they never were like America ^_^ Go Japan. I'm anti-censorship, btw.

In any case, the profite gained from the yu-gi-oh card came manly comes from children, not adults.
In the beginning, it was for kids to play, then it evolved into a world wide bank house.
That is only an asumtion.
