Talk:Yu-Gi-Oh! (1998 animated TV series)

Plot?
I’ve never seen this series, but the plot described here kind of sounds like that of the second series. I thought this one was set before it. Weren’t they based on different sections of the manga? —Frungi 14:27, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

the series was not a card game but basically a show about different playable games that you could actually play, but with snazzy effects. the series usually had a villain that had severe flaws and always forced dark yugi to pop out to face him in 'yami no game'. the series is violent enough that an english version would either hack out sections or would have to be at night. Comedy, twists, and entertainment usually occurs. This series was based on the manga, books 1-7 to be exact. Right now Youtube has some videos that you can find of it, subtitled though. An example of the adult humor would be whenever he sees Anzu, he talks about how much she grew, 42 inches, which is referring to her bust size. When a player would cheat or is seen as evil when facing dark yugi, he would cause them to have horrific psychotic breaks, like being set on fire or making them think they are made of gears. Yugi has no recollection of being Dark Yugi for the first part, Joey was in a gang and had a serious debt issue, tristan is in love with Miho-chan, Anzu is still interested in Dark yugi. this series is different and should not be classified as the Yu-Gi-Oh! series from later on.-Lrr. 9:42, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Merger proposal
This is a vote for merger. I noticed that someone set up a blind redirect here from the page for Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series (a fan parody)... unfortunately that page meets Wikipedia's notability requirements, so we can't delete that page. I've rolled back the page deletion, removed the redirect, done some cleanup, and added a merger proposal to both pages. If the merger passes we need someone to add a section to the bottom of this page with the abridged series' page's content. 75.187.40.50 (talk) 11:59, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * It's already been deleted, since fan paradies have no relevance to canonical material. Even if the article itself was still there, we shouldn't merge fanfic with canon material. LightandDark2000 (talk) 19:38, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
