Art

actually it's pretty good,every monster, looks good(the serie it's not to old anyway)you can enjoyied every aspect,the backgrouds, in every battle,the charactes are good ones,i don't know how many characters are or how many monster are, but they are a lot.in the beginning the drawing of the characters are ok but they improve later in the serie,there is not much diference and the drawing of the monsters, it's a pretty long series so expect ,many visual grapics, they use a good technique(i am talking about the creators of the anime)in the colors ,the clothes of the character it's not to of much variety

Sound

the is a big diference between the english version and the japanes version,while the japanes version have diferents openings and endings,the american version it's poor in this aspect the music change too,personally i love the japanise version and not much the english one,the music in jap,version it's pretty cool.they have a lot of soundtracks like 5 or 6,about the voices the americans doesn't used very well ,the spanish version probably it's alittle better,and the censure,not help, making the american version more for little kids(and i hate that)the release the japanese version in dvds,in EUA,like a month ago or 2.

Rating: 10

Presentation

first this series use very well the humor ,you won't be dissapointed in this aspect,it's a very original,actually after the sussesfuly of this one ,another was released but wasn't a big challenge. they release cards to be more enjoyable,i don't know how many people here plays but in latin america it's getting very popular and very expensive,ever in united states,you have to spend a lot of money before you get good card ,the more expensive are the ultra rare cards and the secret cards between 20 and probably more of 100 dollars in some cases,about the enjoyability, thsi it's a very good series,you can watch the serie a couple of times and it's not boring(probably some people thinks very different)anywaythe actions ,the emotions in every duel it's awesome,some times it's sad,but you can be satisfy it's more about the story and others things,but with this i think it's enough,if you don't know about this anime and you can give atry ,probably you have to play cards to be complete,it's dificult in the beginning because there are too many strategy and diferent kind of decks,example,parasite decks ,yatas decks ,decks with a lot of magic and traps,and probably this game it's going to be here for a long time,in latin america they don't use much propagand (it's this correct)but you can watch it in cartoon network

    Yugioh is alot better in japanese ^^ it is not as boring as the american dub :(( blood and everything is on the japanese ^__^

    And so Is Kisara ^___^

    I think Yu-Gi-Oh is cool.
    But it kinda irritates me, that they get the Cards they need everytime. ^^
    And they talk way too much. :D

    alas, i have'nt seen the japanese version, but by all accounts it sounds a lot better - all the friendship speeches, heart of the card speeches, etc. in the dub are extremely irritating. i must say some of the characters are well done though, in the way they are represented, also, how the anime refers a lot to ancient egypt and the characters' pasts there greatly appeals to me.

    it's a nice anime but I think it gets a bit childish some times.... But that female person is very good - Mai i think... :D

    It's alright, but all that talk about friendship and all... well... it just isn't right... a bigger problem I have with it though, is that they waste half their time talking to themselves and friends, thinking about their strategies, and second-guessing their moves. It can really get to you.

    Yugioh is a cool anime but what bugs me is when they edit parts out.Like in this one episode when it shows a fake Kaiba talking to Mokuba and Kaiba like hits Mokuba or something(don't know cuz it's edited out)and the next thing u see is Mokuba on the floor holding his cheek so it's kinda obvious he hit him.Well my point is that if they have to edit so much stuff out they should just put it the Adult Swim or something.Overall the anime is stil good even though it's edited.

    I love Yugioh, the japanese version! The english one suck badly! I seen all of the series already and the american one sucks....

    only one problem with the series . . . its based on a card game where the rules change every session . . . plus how is it that the creator/greatest duelests ever never know about that "other" rare card and its "special" properties.
