    This show sucks. It is very unrealistic. I.E. When the stupid grandpa lost the duel in season 1 or whatever, it seems that like his "power" was drained. The characters overreact when they play their cards. Every episode is the same thing! The plot sucks. Everytime a character loses a game it seems like they're dying inside. its a stupid show! Common!!! I admit i found this show interesting at first but I as soon as I realized every episode is pretty much the same thing and everything was overreacted I completely stoped. I pity any one who watches this pices of crap.moreless

    Yugioh. The show that inspired rip-offs, parodies, movies, and a line of merchandise, Yugioh still stands out. The concept of the show was actually very original, about a boy and his trust in the heart of his cards. Though it might seem a bit strange, the formula works out great. There's also a variety of great characters, with good character design, and character development. Yugi is the main character, and tries to be friends with everyone, even when he is bullied. He owns one of the Millenium objects, the Millenium Puzzle that brings out an alter ego, Yami Yugi. Yami helps Yugi to get better at dueling as well as to stand up for himself. Joey is Yugi's best friend and is stubborn when it comes to duels. Tea and Tristan are primarily supportive characters who cheer Joey and Yugi on, though they can duel with their own. Kaiba is Yugi's rival, and Yugi is the only one that Kaiba acknowledges as a true competiter. There are so many other characters that help or harm, like Mai or Marik. The voice acting is also decent. When there are jokes, they're usually funny, if not corny. The action scenes, or duels, are pretty nice, though it's annoying at times since it overlaps into episodes and practically every episode centers around some sort of duel. I have only one problem with the show, when they preach about the heart of the cards. I like the idea, but when it's in every difficult duel, I have a problem.

    Ultimately, Yugioh has great characters, an original premise, and nice interesting duels. Watch it. (Surprisingly, 4Kids didn't do too bad on the dubbing.)moreless

    Love this show, it's funny how they take card games so serious. I didn't much care for the other YGO shows that came after it, they seemed lame to me. I shall always love the original.

  • The Show that started it all.

    Well what can I say? This is a legendary show that takes a huge part of my memory, I remember seeing the first episode when it aired in the Uk and loved it. I could never forget that first episode, most people remember it for Exodia laying waste to three Blue Eyes White Dragons but I remember it for how much I loved it the first time. The protagonist well really protagonists is a young boy, probably no older than 13 years old who has the best power ever, he has an alter ego that kicks-ass and plays card games, that alter ego's identity is a mystery until it is revealed later in the show. The first season really introduces us to the characters that will feature in the show all the way through to the end, some aren't really explained that well you'll have to get a guide to the show in order to understand some character motives, but it doesn't matter because the card games are what you came to see, are they not? Overall I love this show, it was the first anime I watched and I've started sketching and watching anime becuse of its influence.moreless
