Rebecca Hawkins is an American Duel Monsters champion. She came to the area where Yugi Mouto lived just so she could meet him, and "Get her Grandfathers Blue eyes white dragon back", which she claimed Yugi's grandfather, Solomon, stole years before. And after about five seconds after she meets him for the first time, she challenges Yugi to a duel. (which they conduct at one of Seto Kiaba's high-tech Duel Monster playing fields) After countless interruptions in their dueling time, (from where Mr. Mouto tried with no avail to explain why, and how he came to possess the fourth blue-eyes to the young girl) Yugi finally wins the duel, with some more of his masterful dueling skills, and after that girl has said something along the lines of, "You crook!" about seventeen million times. As it turns out, as everyone already knows, the fourth blue eyes was destroyed, and of course they couldn't give the card to Rebecca. Why should they have anyway? It wasn't hers to begin with. Well, Rebecca's grandfather, Arthur, who turns out having a British accent, comes and saves the day, by explaining to his granddaughter that it was no accident or act of theft which gave Solomon Mouto ownership of the Blue Eyes White Dragon, it was simply within their friendship that they did so. (Basically: He is telling her that it was himself who gave the card to Yugi's Grandfather, and he apologized for Rebecca being such a pain in the neck.) Then, the episode ended with them all being happy and parting down their different paths.

Rebecca is around ten years old, and the only other American that I have seen on this show, save "Bandit" Keith (With his obviously American flag-like red white and blue striped and starred bandanna), and perhaps, Mai Valentine. She is also by far the most annoying of all of the show's characters. Her voice is always squeaking and squealing, and she must have hugged and made one-way conversation with that teddy bear of hers about a million times as well. I think that she's covered up this annoying behavior up by saying she fooled her opponents into thinking that she was a weak person, when in fact, being quite skilled. (Yet having more, still, to learn.) Rebecca uses the dueling tactics that she has learned from her Grandfather to the letter, and if she actually learned a strategy of her own, she might actually be a pretty good duelist in the future. The episode(s) that she were on were my least favorite ones of all of the series that I have seen. I think that we'll be seeing more of Rebecca Hawkins.
