[edit] Literal translation

Yu-Gi-Oh translates into "Card Game King/Ruler"

I always thought it meant GAME KING, since the real first season (season 0 - not shown in the U.S.) doesn't have any cards at all, just essentially shadow games. Bekkie 17:32, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
  • That's wrong. Looking up "遊戯" on WWWJDIC gets simply "game; play; sports". "Card game" gets more complicated results, none of which is the "yūgi" kanji. JuJube 19:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestion: how about more info for card collectors?

In particular, what is a rare card v. super rare, ultra rare, etc. How do you recognize one?


—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.136.37.77 (talk) 13:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC).

Each has a different foil and print. For example, ultra rares get gold writing and foil, while rares get silver writing.

Gaget654321 12:41, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] There are now 9 Valuable Books, not just 5

Volume 6 ISBN 4-08-782060-2 Volume 7 ISBN 4-08-782085-8 Volume 8 ISBN 4-08-782099-8 Volume 9 ISBN 4-08-782149-8

For those who don't like official translation are there scanslations as well. I miss this info in this article too.


[edit] NOTE

I deleted "This article needs to be locked" because it is locked. Stop making this part again, after I delete, whoever is.

[edit] Korean War

Someone should mention that "Yugioh" (technically "Yug-I-Oh") in Korean means 6.25, which is what South Koreans usually call the Korean War. (As it started on 6.25)

We're not here to report coincidences. Setokaiba✌≝ 17:51, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
And it's not technically Yug-I-Oh, for the record. Both the English Yu-Gi-Oh! and the Japanese Yuugiou are acceptable. John D'Adamo 16:37, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fan site?

What was wrong with that last fansite I tried to link to? Was it against a rule? --63.65.45.98 20:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

We really don't like to have people post fansites. Mainly due to the fact that so many just try to advertise and/or the sites don't provide much information. Then again, this is my opinion. Manjoume Thunder 17:54, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Misc Comments

I deleted the link to "Yu-Gi-Oh! Zone" because the link didn't work. About "Ultimate Shoujo's" link.

I didn't realise that the fan sites section had to be 50 % to 100% Anime/Manga content. I made it as a shrine to ALL of the Yu-Gi-Oh females. Anime/Manga, TCG and real life female fans/duelists. I will live with the desion that Ultimate Shoujo's link will only be listed in the TCG/OCG articles. I will stop re adding the link to the main Yu-Gi-Oh! page. At first, I thought it was a vandel, so that's why I kept adding the link. Oh well, They did warn us about having our stuff edited/deleted with out notice.

Speaking of which... Can we have this article "Locked"? It would keep non members from accidently deleting stuff. Just a suggestion. Thundercat2

I had suggested it does get "protected" or "locked" at one point not too long ago due to the sheer amount of vandalism and abuse this page has been taking esp from unregistered users. (though oddly enough, this page seems to even get some vandalism from some newly registered users as well, almost as if they register just to abuse the page. Go figure.) ZyphBear 05:36, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Guys, it's not every day that I try to contribute, and I do not understand why, after I Added militate.com, Geg removed the link. It's a prominent Yu-Gi-Oh! site, also known as yugioh-fusion.com so why the deletion?

Actually, it looks like Geg has been doing alot of "trimming" lately for things he doesn't seem to agree with, even if they happen to be true. (and instead of just saying "was put in wrong area, moved to correct area", he just deletes it. Oh well, guess what's why they say "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it."ZyphBear 14:04, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Please don't add the names of characters without some kind of content with them. There is no benefit to anyone otherwise. RadicalBender 22:26, 9 Jan 2004 (UTC)

The last Yu-Gi-Oh episode was printed and published on March 8, 2004 edition of weekly Shonen Jump. Just to let you know. All good things must come to an end. :) Revth 18:13, 10 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Actually, I'm trying to find some actual confirmation of this. I know some people have been saying this, but the most recent scans seem to indicate it's not done quite yet, it's just in the final arc. Yugi is battling himself (Yami Yugi), but the fight isn't over as of issue 339. I could be behind, though - I'm not sure. Do you happen to know the number of the final issue? RadicalBender 18:53, 10 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Yu-Gi-Oh! is not finished!

A new Yu-Gi-Oh! story started in the Japanese Shonen Jump: Yu-Gi-Oh! R

--

Also, 4Kids seems to be airing a new, original season after the duel that follows Memory World in Ireland, called Yu-Gi-Oh: Capsule Monsters. I put what I know about it on the wikipedia page, but 4Kids hasn't even officially announced it....

--DawnMedia:http://www.mostsexymoms.com/out.php?url=http://www.fetishinspector.com/daily/392/index/&p=65&link=a

The 'Capsule Monster' story has been announced, the DVD is coming out, an online screening has been scheduled, and a possible Fall 2006 Airing has all been added to the article. ZyphBear 12:47, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yu-Gi-Oh! naming

This article should be moved to "Yu-Gi-Oh!" with the exclamation mark! WhisperToMe 20:43, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Yes, it should. I've been meaning to do this for a while... RADICALBENDER★ 22:38, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Last set of changes

I intended to pop over to the French WikiP and rename their article, but the Movepage function isn't working. I left a request in their Talk page to move it. As for the "removal of criticism", I think article are much stronger when facts are presented as they are, so the reader can draw their own conclusion. The previous criticism section was weasl-y, with no citation or reference of where that opinion came from. -- Netoholic 04:06, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
That doesn't even make any sense. So, why shouldn't those criticisms be under their own section (especially since you didn't remove any content)? The article is getting more and more poorly organized.

if u want to see more of my work look up poke'mon.

Finally, guns and violence, etc. don't fall under "FCC v-chip regulations," which don't actually exist. The networks are left to their own devices to assign ratings to shows. They could have left the entire show alone without any interference from the FCC (the parents would've gone ballistic because American sensibilitiwww.2girlsonecup.comn's shows are different from Japanese, and that is what I changed the sentence). And the proof? FUNimation is planning to release an uncut, Japanese-language version on DVD.

RADICALBENDER★ 13:58, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie

The 2nd movie of Yu-Gi-Oh! will be aired on TV-Tokyo on January 2, 2005. (See here). And although so far the movie was not released in theatres in Japan, I heard that readers of the Japanese Shonen Jump were invited to special previews of the movie in November 2004. Riddle | Talk 06:41, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Episode guide!!!

I think someone should add the complete Yu-Gi-OH episode guide!!!

That would be nice, but if it's done it should be on a seperate page linking to this one. Yu-Gi-Oh! is one of the longest running anime I've seen, and I know there are longer ones. A list, much less an episode guide, would be too long for this article, but is a good suggestion for another page.

[edit] Millennium Puzzle Game

Congratulations scene of the Millennium Puzzle Game

Words from Kazuki Takahashi concerning Magic & Wizards, shown up after you finish the Millennium Puzzle Game (Macromedia Shockwave is required to play the game). Click "CLICK HERE", then click "ゲームスタート" to play it.

Japanese text:

CONGRATULATIONS!!
ゲ㊌ムクリアおめでとう!!
あの千年パズルを完成させる𘚟は・・・
キミはすごいゲームセンスを持っているね!!
よし、約束どおり遊戯王の秘密の世界をお見せするとしよう!!

マジックアンドウィザーズの秘密!!?

マンガに登場するマジックアンドウィザーズは、 ご存知のようにマジックザ
ギャザリングをモデルにしています。 僕もギャザリングはプレイしますが、
とてもルールが難しく、 カードの種類もたくさんあるので、 閉口しています。
マンガのマジックアンドウィザーズがあんな風にシンプルなゲームになったの
は、 そんな風にマジックザギャザリングが難しかったからということも実は
理由の一つです。でも、最近マンガのほうも難しくなっているといううわさ
も……!!?

English translation (feel free to improve it):

CONGRATULATIONS!!
Congratulations on clearing the game!!
Having completed that Millennium Puzzle...
You have a great sense of gaming!!
Alright, I will show you the secret world of Yu-Gi-Oh!, as promised!!

The secret of Magic & Wizards !!?

As you know, the Magic & Wizards game that appears in the manga uses Magic: The Gathering as a model. Alhough I also play Gathering [1], I am nonplussed by it because the rules are very difficult, and there are many different types of cards. In fact, one of the reasons the Magic & Wizards in the manga was such a simple game is that Magic: The Gathering was difficult in such a way. However, rumor has it that the recent manga is also difficult to understand......!!?

Note:

^  Magic: The Gathering. Although the game is usually referred to as Magic or MTG for short, here (and only here in the article) Takahashi uses "ギャザリング" (Gathering) to refer to it,

[edit] Memory saga

Will the Yu-Gi-OH Memory saga air in America??

It will. This morning whlie I watched the end of Grand Championship, there was an add for Dawn of the Duels. It showed Yugi dressed as the Paraoh and Kaiba holding the Millunum Rod. My guess is it will be aired and this will be the last season.--Dylankidwell 18:35, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Memory Saga

Which age group is the Memory Saga aimed toward... Because the Japanese veriosn pretty violent. And will it be very edited...? Examples:

  1. Yugi's grandfather got shot (episode 199)
  2. Mahado's sacificed (episode 204)
  3. massure in the Theif Village (episode 206)
  4. Dark Priest being stabbed (episode 214)

etc...

(anon)

The original Japanese version was aimed towards teenagers in the 13-17 level. The dub version is aimed towards kids in the 6-12 level. Therefore, a lot of the goodies were edited out. I go into detail on my website, feel free to use it as a resource.  :) John D'Adamo 16:39, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yu-Gi-Oh! articles terrify me

See, I knew nothing about Yu-Gi-Oh!, so I thought I could stand to learn about more fiction. I come here, and what do I see? LISTS. LISTS OF CARDS. And the most overblown template I've ever seen in my entire life. This frightens me. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you are talking about, "Lists, lists of cards". A quick glance at a revision to this article before your post, [2] doesn't seem to be too terribly card heavy. Furthermore, it's not like it's telling a ghost story or something so aren't you being a bit absurd with that "terrified" line? Hackwrench 15:13, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

I am the exact sort of person whom those articles are for: somebody unknowledgeable in the fiction. It is not a good testament on all your abilities if a newcomer is scared away. Not at all. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

No, you aren't the exact sort of person these articles are for. The articles should be informative to everyone who wants information on this, no matter their familiarity with it. Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

The main problem, really, is the lists of cards. I'm not certain how you guys reached the conclusion of people caring about the specific details of fictional characters' decks, so I'll be blunt: nobody cares. To provide an example, I see Seto Kaiba posses a Luster Dragon #2! Do I know what the creature with such an absurd name is? No. Is it all that important? Most assuredly not. Thus, why waste the reader's time and expect him to care? --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Oh, and you are somehow a master on what is important for every reader who comes here? You've already admitted your ignorance of the subject matter, and now you claim to be some sort of mind reader? Nobody cares? I suppose in your world, if you've seen one person, you've seen them all! Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is not a indiscriminate source of information, and most certainly not an obsessive fansite. Thank you. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Please keep in mind that you are not an authority on what is or isn't indiscriminate. Thank you. Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

So the cards should be limited to "notable cards" so the list isn't so gosh darned long, right? I don't even know what the cards do either; I only read the comics. WhisperToMe 05:12, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

EDIT: Another idea: What if the strategy of each deck was explained, with the roles of each card? WhisperToMe 05:18, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Either option would be a improvement, any sort of interesting prose would be preferred to longwinded lists that can and will be easily skipped. --Apostrophe 05:51, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
I've always felt that each entry should have a short list of "notable cards" with notable cards being defined as the character's signature card and/or a card that contributed to the advancement of a storyline, i.e. Yugi's Dark Magician, Dark Magician Girl, Buster Blader, Exodia, Kuriboh and the Egyptian God Cards. Every time I turn around, it seems that there is a new article on a low-level card, i.e. Saggi the Dark Clown, and I am hesitant to remove it because there seems to be no clear-cut and definitive answer on what to keep and what to remove. - DrachenFyre 17:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
I would prefer this, actually. Explaining every card in their decks would be a longwinded nightmare. I know little about Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I'd be glad to help with the trimming if I can. --Apostrophe 23:35, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
I really wouldn't care either way, I guess, though I'm the one who helped put most of the card lists together (most of them were half-done so I figured I'd do some research and finish them off). I definitely agree with DrachenFyre that I hate seeing actual pages being made of random cards I've never even heard of and stuff. Still, there are lots of pages worse than the YGO ones. If you really want to see an excess of pages, check out the Wiki stuff on Lord of the Rings. Geg 23:01, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
Then let us take a stand and differ from the LotR entries. Whilst I know that Wikipedia isn't a "paper" encyclopedia (as has been pointed out to me before), I still think that listing ALL major cards that the main characters have used is, ultimately, pointless and just clutters the article. Who's with me? Hmm? :-) - The Dragonmaster 23:23, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

If you wanted a fansite, theres a proper Yu-Gi-Oh! wikia. --144.137.60.44 08:47, 13 May 2006 (UTC) (Yami_Michael)

Couldn't you just put a card list on a seperate page (with a more specific title like "Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Lists")? The biggest problem there would be finding the time and energy to make it. I made one once, but it took me months of watching eBay for specific card numbers. I used it often when it was done, but then my computer got wiped out by a virus and it never occured to me to back them up. There are people out there who would use (and likely bookmark) such a page... just a thought. Smokeresearcher 17:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

I have to agree. A card list article would serve better than a section in the main article. Also, if there are any notable cards, they should have a seperate page from the card list, rather than try to explain each and every card's stats and effects. There ARE articles that are mostly lists, and the ones for Yu-Gi-Oh! are getting B-Class ranking because of this. A central list would be more effective, possibly divided into "Real Cards," "Anime Exclusive," and "GX Exclusive." Dracokanji 12:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Trying to explain all the cards would take up sevral megabytes of information and several months of one person's free time (on his/her own). If you tried to create seperate links explaining every card that need explanation, they would likely overlap a bunch of other non-Yu-Gi-Oh related topics. The list itself would be bigger than the entire article though, so putting the list in a seperate articleis unquestionable. Based on that Animé tag, I'm sure Wikipedia wouldn't really mind the space. Obviously it would be a great asset to Wikipedia (think of all the people who would come just to look up a card they didn't know on the list. Hardly anyone knows all the cards in the game). It would just be really hard to find someone with all the time to make the list. There is a site, called pojo, that lists a few cards (something over 1,000) that might be a good place to start, but their lists aren't complete (even the ones on the left-side colomn) and I believe putting links to their type of site is against Wikipedia's policy because they advertise a lot. I'm playing a game of college-catch-up and am a little pressed for time, but maybe I'll try to start it sometime. Could anyone anyone with some free time help me wit this unenviable task? I think the article should be named List of Yu-Gi-Oh Cards (use this link to get started), but if someone disagrees, please speak up. --Smokeresearcher 23:11, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect from Amane

I was trying to get information about that new image server's namesake, and I found out that Amane redirects here. Why?

Because "Amane" in a Yu-Gi-Oh! context is Amane Bakura, Ryo Bakura's sister. WhisperToMe 23:34, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Something to Consider

Is it possible that this Yu-Gi-Oh character is a Mormon? The reason I ask this because there are possible resemblemce between these Egyption cards and Joseph Smith's "Reading Stones".

Just a thought...

69.248.43.27 05:50 24 December 2005

Oh no. The character is most likely Shinto and Buddhist. Almost all Japanese people are Shinto and Buddhist. WhisperToMe 17:05, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Wrong again. Those "Reading Stones" you're referring to are the Urum & Thummim. Also, which character are you referring to? Religion is usually never brought up in cartoons. 71.111.215.224 23:20, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Have to agree with 71.111.215.224 on this one. In my back-breaking Yuugiou research there is absolutely no allusion to Yuugi Mutoh's religion at all in the series. His only belief is in the power of his own cards and that of Atemu that lied within the Sennen Puzzle. As for Atemu, as he was at one point an Egyptian pharaoh, he probably believed in the gods of Egypt. -JD of Yuugiou Uncensored 192.168.1.21 11:15, 13 May 2006

But that doesn't mean that Yug is an athiest. 71.111.232.40 22:43, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

It really was never revealed in either version. In the dub, he believes in the power of his cards. In the Japanese version, he believes in the bond between him and "mo hitori no boku", the other him, or Atemu. Therefore, we can't just assume he was any religion at all. Remember, real-world rules don't apply. They use freaking realistic holograms and duel disks. John D'Adamo 16:41, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why is the page in japanese?!?!

WHY IS THE PAGE IN JAPANESE?!?!?!?!

Ok Bobaboba why did you change this page into Japanese?

--Number7 00:48, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Err, there's way too many YGO related pages that are probably non-notable

We're accumulating way too many pages about various cards, most of them not notable, and basically crud in general. I propose massive deletions/redirects to trim this down.--Frenchman113 20:04, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Long Page

This page is becoming very long. Will somebody please put a message on the site saying that, or fix it yourself by putting some information on "sub-sites"?

Nate 12:09, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean? We ignore the 32 KB limit now. WhisperToMe 00:59, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Protection?

There seems to be a very large amount of vandalism on the page recently. (maybe due to extra promotions from KidsWB that the series is ending?) In any case, I am proposing to at least temporarily protect the page. Personally I would have hoped more non-registered members would have been able to make edits, but it's getting pretty bad. Any input on this? ZyphBear 04:27, 27 May 2006 (UTC)


wasn't this locked before from anonymous posters? could it be locked again?? although I don't know why the page is such a target to people with too much time on their hands (and apparently such little minds). I apologize to any anonymous poster who honestly wants to add DECENT input, but considering Wiki doesn't require blood oaths or maiden names or anything else, I don't see why people don't join/get an username if they have something to add. Bekkie 10:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Valon (Yu-Gi-Oh!)

Would someone please take a look at the Valon (Yu-Gi-Oh!) article? It could use a lot of cleaning up. I'm not an expert on Yu-Gi-Oh! so if someone else could take a look at it, I'd much appreciate it. Thanks, Metros232 23:52, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I redirected it to the Valon article. WhisperToMe 01:33, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yami no Game/Shadow Game

  • This question regards the anime, in particular the Toei version in comparison to the Duel Monsters series. In the former, Yami Yugi knows what a Shadow Game is from the get-go; in the latter, he learns what one is from Pegasus (seemingly; I haven't been able to see the Japanese version). Which one is true in the manga? Danny Lilithborne 23:51, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
  • The first is true in the manga. In fact, the very first thing he does in the manga is draw someone into a Shadow Game. WhisperToMe 00:47, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What's realy Oricalcos

Oricalcos is metal with golden shine. It is belived that it was used in city Atlantis, on buildings and as armors an weapons. The first aperance of Oricalcos is on paintings in one of piramids that show's Egyptans fighting strange warriors which are belived to come from Atlantis. As no such metal is found it could also be Bronze or even Titanium as both have golden shine.

In some fantasy stories Oricalcos has devine powers and/or can be enchanted only with "good" energies.

[edit] Project Yu-Gi-Oh! (maybe?)

The way the Yu-Gi-Oh articles are written and set up on Wikipedia needs a lot of reorganization and revision. Too many individual pages for minor charactors and an excess of card pages (this has been resolved recently) have alienated non-Yu-Gi-Oh! fans, and this should be rectified. While Wikipedia is not indescriminatory, it is supposed to be informative to those who are infamiliar. Some of the pages are esoteric and I think an effort should be put forth to re-establish the information presented on Wikipedia.

Hey, could anybody make an article with a complete list of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and their descriptions? This would include type, Attribute, ATK, and DEF for the monsters, as well as their effects. Well, actually, putting all of the Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and their effects into one complete list would be a bit much to contain in one article, so perhaps it would be easier to do it by expansion pack. Actually, I think that's a great idea! Could somebody please implement it for me? Thanks! --Luigifan 12:13, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

I doubt it would fit. There are way too many cards. Here's a site I've been using for card info: http://netrep.net/registry.php. Maybe a link? --Heavyccasey 06:30, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

There should be a crtitcism article —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sonicrules2 (talk • contribs) 01:22, 11 May 2007 (UTC).

Yuugiou (yu-gi-oh), CardCaptor Sakura, &Sailor Moon deserve a place on the list of top 50 worst dubbs ever made; covering up taboo relationships, changed names, ill-fitting voice actors, missing episodes, cut scenes, targeted at wrong audience age & or gender, gender changing due to homosexual interests, highly innacurate translations, & replaced music. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.122.193 (talk) 03:53, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

[edit] yu-gi-oh the abridged series

is this page going to mention yu-gi-oh the abridged series? its one of the most popular videos on you tube ♥Eternal Pink-Ready to fight for love and grace♥ 16:17, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

I think it should as well. In fact I was surprised it was not mentioned already after skimming the article briefly. It might even merit its own page, but for now a brief mention should definitely be in order. The Raven is God 02:37, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Actually, if I recall, it DID have it's own page. Not sure what happened to it actauly. Mendinso 17:10, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
It wasn't notable - It was deleted. Do not mention that here - It's a non-notable fan work. WhisperToMe 17:26, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
Surely if stuff on it could be referenced in accordance with the criteria then it would be notable. EvilRedEye 17:32, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

No, because it is not notable. Read WP:Notable WhisperToMe 20:09, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

How about in a section titled "Parodies" or something like that? --Heavyccasey 06:28, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

This page in a nutshell: A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. - from WP:Notable. Really don't get your point. I mean I don't know if this type of coverage exists, but its possible that it does given the popularity of the videos. I don't see how you can make a sweeping statement that it's not notable. EvilRedEye 17:15, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

On the mentioning it side: There are entire sites based around Yugioh the Abridged Series, and many sites around the world have many of its members fans of the series. It has become very popular among the older (teenage) generation, and it is watched internationally. Among the teenage generation, if you compare the fans of the series to the fans of the abridged series, than the abridged series far outranks that of the original series. It has recieved more notability today than the actual original series, and even more people watch it than some of the actual anime series that have articles. It has also quickly become one of Youtube's most popular videos.
On the not mentioning side: It is entirely fan-work and has no notability for the actual series.
They're both very good points, but just look up any of his videos on youtube or Dailymotion and see how many views there have been. One episode alone on Youtube has over 770,000 views, and together all of the videos are in the millions. It is actually very notable. And I'm not really sure it should be called fanwork, especially if all he's doing is insulting yugioh and 4KIDS over and over. Artist Formerly Known As Whocares 15:11 (Eastern standard time), June 23 2007.

That's not enough, guys. Most people believe that fan works based on fictional properties are not suitable inclusion material for encyclopedias. WhisperToMe 20:45, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

"Not unless the fan-work has proven itself to be notable, which several AFDs and DRV have proven that it is not. --Farix (Talk) 20:52, 23 June 2007 (UTC) "

In other words, we (the Wikipedians) do not feel that it is suitable for this encyclopedia. WhisperToMe 20:54, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Like they've said, it doesn't warrant anything for itself at the moment. Maybe if it grows to the point that it starts appearing on TV or something, but right now it doesn't fit in with wiki's notability guidelines. The Splendiferous Gegiford 21:00, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

this video is just not encyclopedic (for this page), if some article specificaly about Yu-Gi-Oh! Trivia, cultural references, spinoffs, whatever; maybe this youtube info could be added; but such article might not be notable enough for inclusion on this wiki --Andersmusician $ 00:26, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
In most cases, Youtube is not considered to be an appropriate external link. See WP:EL. WhisperToMe 01:19, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

No. WhisperToMe 02:49, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
hes accont has been subspended so now it might never get worthy of a mentiond on this page ♥Fighting for charming Love♥ 11:04, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
Doesn't really have anything to do with YouTube - just need a few decent secondary sources. I've been thinking of searching Lexus-Nexus to see if there's been any mention of it in newspaper articles or something... need to get round to it. EvilRedEye 15:17, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
I've checked - didn't find anything... slightly disappointed, I've read articles about Internet videos in the paper before, thought something might come up. Much as I'd like to include it I simply can't find any reputable sources. Ho hum, doesn't look like it's notable for now. Maybe in the future... EvilRedEye 15:35, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

eh? i deleted the mention of abriged series, is that good Sir de wario 20:37, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

It is huge... I mean, if Loituma girl has a mention, then Yu Gi Oh abridged should... It even spawned other abridged shows... It may be a fan work, but it's so well established in popularity that it deserves a mention. It's absolutely absurd that it doesn't have a mention.WhateverTS (talk) 05:29, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Whine and whine, it's disgusting. It's simple - no notable outside sources have talked about it so it doesn't get mentioned. Simple as that. JuJube (talk) 06:00, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

From WP:Use English:

If you are talking about a person, country, town, film, book, or video game, use the most commonly used English version of the name for the article.

Unless the article pertains only to the Japanese version and not the dub (such as YGO! R or "Season 0" of the anime) the English names should be used. This is the English wiki after all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SubStandardDeviation (talk • contribs) 02:56, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

The American and English Yu-Gi-Oh! manga use the Japanese names for all characters except Pegasus, as far as I know. (They have ペガサス・J・クロフォード(Pegasus J. Crawford) with Maximillion J. Pegasus as a reading.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akata (talk • contribs) 09:39, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

  • 1 = Yu-Gi-Oh! is a world wide fenomenon you can't put every specket of pop-culture (related to Yu-Gi-Oh!) on wikipedia. 2 = The only reason they make fun of it so much is because 4Kids Entertainment did the acting for it and pretty much butchered the whole show inside out! Many people don't realize what real anime is because of 4Kids Entertainment. If you watch the 4Kids Entertainment stuff why don't you turn over to non-butcherized stuff like Gantz.

[edit] about the games

-Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 5 Expert 1 - isn't listed as a japanese only game (see below) -Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 6 Expert 2 - is the game that was cloned many times (see below)

-The Eternal Duelist Soul - is a update/localization of Yugioh DM5 EX1: the duel selection screen (where you select wich opponent you want to face), the record screen and calendar screen where the only things not "updated" and they were only "localized", but the "duel screen" was replaced with the DM6 EX2 or DM International, but with the original DM6 EX2 speed, unless you press L button, before the duel "Starts" (when you select wich rock, paper or scissors), you can play with the fast speed that is used in DM International, and the graphics of the duel screen, etc. were also changed to be the same as DM6 EX2 or DM International... the intro was removed, the menu was remade and the deck edit was updated/localized to DM6 EX2 or DM International

another thing to mention is that there is no D-Tactics (Duel Tactics), amd some music or all the music was replaced with the DM6 EX2 or DM International (i'm not quite sure if it's only the duel music)

I really can't decide what version they used to update DM5 EX1, but probably it was DM6 EX2

-Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters International Worldwide Edition - this game is the "Japanese version" of Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition Stairaway to the Destined Duel, both are the same except that the japanese starts in japanese language and the american starts in english language, but at anytime you can change from six languages, the european version asks you what language you wish at the start

but they all have (even Japanese version) Censored graphics for the cards (Monster Reborn not being an Ankh and insted being a rare symbol)

but these games are some sort of update/localization of DM6 EX2, the things that were changed were the cost of inputting a password card was changed to 0, the starting cards were more like Yugi, but they changed it so if you choose the "black starter pack" you get either all five exodia or powerful cards as Jinzo and Slate Warrior... and the cost of unlocking the booster packs was not that higher

differences in both games: the boosters you get wen you win a fight, they were changed to pictures of cards, instead of real booster packs, unlike the Official Card Game (Ex: Volume 1 Changed to a Picture of Dark Magician), and also they put cards not obtainable in those packs like the BEWD

and the cards in the DM5 EX1 & DM6 EX2 were numbered, but they're still ordered as if they have the numbers on them


i like to point some errors, like this sentence from WCT 2004:

"Changes from Eternal Duelist Soul

This game has many obvious similarities to The Eternal Duelist Soul. The duel system is almost exactly the same, but there are a few differences."

where WWE is the predeccesor of WCT2004

in DM EX3 (NOT DM 9) the real booster packs where replaced with international ones nooo, and added more card to the packs, also the first boosters when you win a duel are from the second generation but with booster pack graphic changed, and cards included changed, there is no calendar, (in DM6EX2, INT, WWE, where hidden) and the most annoying thing is that even the japanese version has censored cards... noooo

the only relation between EDS and WTC 2004 is the game mechanics, were you fight duelists many times before other duelists appear

there must be a list of yugioh games page, because the list is huge,

and it would be cool to see more yugioh videogames pages, especially for The Eternal Duelist Soul

Ummm.... there is no reception section for the entire series. Seriously, am I the only one who noticed this? Yugioh may be important, but at this rate the article could get deleted if no out-of-universe info is included, and I'm sure none of you want that. I highly request a reception section be included here for the entire series.

  • The manga first, the manga always comes first. Yugio was first in the magazine Weekly Shonen Jump later a anime and a card game. Yugio Duel Monsters GX (A.K.A. Yu-Gi-Oh! GX) on the other hand started as a anime and later a manga in the video game magazine V Jump. Both of the shonen series' anime were taken by the company 4Kids and made into crappy little kid shows; as well a shame it is.... they also tried to do series such as One Piece, Kinnikuman II Sei, and Shaman King. All the series were tragically and gruesomly destroyed. It is still unkown why thay took Kinnikuman II Sei (which is an adult series) and tried to make it into a kid series.

    • Yeah, another exception is Weiss Kreuz. But these exceptions are very rare. I think most of the ideas start as a one-shot manga. It is cheap, and if it is popular, they make a series from it.
