That intrigued me to no end to see how exactly that would play out. The most interesting twist to me was the Egyptian background. There is a plot behind all the games (read the manga for more). The characters are so much more dynamic than most of these genre of shows. However I gave it a whirl and watched it, and by god I actually enjoyed it. So upon seeing this I quirked an eyebrow. I had just gotten over my Pokemon and Digimon phase. Not another card driven game! That is what I thought going into this. If you still don't want to give this anime a chance, at least look up the sound duels.
YU GI OH GX DUBBED EPISODE 1 SERIES
Just look past the silly card game and you WILL love this series too.Īnd please oh please, I beg of you. Over all, I never thought I would like yugioh and now it’s my favorite anime.

Yugioh has its deep and serious side about how the mind works, human nature and perhaps a bit of schizophrenia. Some people view this series as childish and down right silly, but they are only looking on the outside.
YU GI OH GX DUBBED EPISODE 1 TV
I disliked the series when it was showing on TV but loved the Japanese. The English adaption also leaves a LARGE gap between the uncut viewers and the ones that grew up on the 4kids edited version. There are a lot of filler episodes and two filler seasons. Sometimes it feels like it’s not worth it. Sometimes that ends up being a whole episode. The card game can get boring and over done and I end up skipping all of them.

I could go on and on just talking about the music.Įven though I have a lot of good things to say about this show, it has its down-falls. Some songs are sad and forlorn while others are upbeat and jazzy. The soundtrack is memorable and I love listening to it by itself. Shinkichi uses a lot of violin in his songs giving the series a melancholic vibe.

The music is written by Shinkichi Mitsumune and is the thing I miss the most in the English version. Also, each artist interprets the characters differently so they change style episode to episode. While episodes directed by Takahiro Kagami (Death note’s lead animation director for most episodes) look smooth and beautifully drawn, others are complete crap. The animation varies from episode to episode. You’ll end up liking a lot of them and hate to see them leave in the end. The characters are unique and easy to warm up to. Because the series is 200 something episodes, this change is gradual and almost unnoticeable. It’s amazing when you compare the very last episode yugi to the very first season 0 yugi. Through these battles Yugi matures and becomes a strong, dependant person, gains friends and learns to stick up for himself. A main key to this story is that this spirit, “yugi’s other self” (yami in English) has no memory of his name or where he came from. Who at first appears to have evil intentions. Upon finishing it, He is possessed with an ancient spirit For 8 years he works on a puzzle that his grandfather found in Egypt. The story is about a kid named Yugi who is shorter than average, insecure, geeky and picked on most of the time. The series started out with no card games at all. What people fail to see is the intense character development that happens over a course of 224 episodes. I’ve heard it called the best worst series ever. Yugioh is an anime about card games, that’s what most people see when they watch it.
