Meaning and background

The story behind Kaiba

Kaiba has a precise association with Seto Kaiba in Yu-Gi-Oh! The official character profile presents him as the wealthy head of KaibaCorp, a developer of virtual-reality dueling technology, and a rival of Yugi in Duel Monsters. His younger brother Mokuba is also part of the profile. This establishes the fictional reference without proving a Japanese word translation or a traditional surname etymology for the romanized spelling.
