    hii, this video is a reaction to yu gi oh abridged season 0 I have never watched the original yugioh series. I've always wanted to get into YuGiOh and thought watching YGOTAS would be fun as a blind reaction.

    Season 0 is basically a closer adaptation of the manga, which is way darker than the later series. It also wasnt originally about the specific card game we all know of, at least not in the beginning. In the manga, over the course of the story the author introduced a ton of games, some of them are pretty interesting in my opinion. At some point duel monsters came into play and that game was so fascinating to the fans, that the whole story started to revolve around this game.

    • @jaernihiltheus7817
      @jaernihiltheus7817 Před rokem +9

      Yeah, everyone basically had their own 1 or 2 games they were experts in except for the pharaoh who was the king of all of them.
      The only reason kaiba stuck around after death T was because his game was the one the manga reoriented itself around, as opposed to bakura and shadi who stuck around because they were planned to be part of the overarching plot already.

    In the manga the shadow game was darker, it didn't involve cards but money and knives. before "duel monsters" became the main focus in the story, the pharaoh used to play several dangerous shadow games with his enemies, other games and even weapons were used sometimes. The readers liked the card game so much that it became the main focus of the plot.

      It's interesting how the card game eventually affected the whole focus of the show. I wonder what would have been if YGO Duel Monsters never got any attention. The other thing that's interesting is how much the card game mutates. In s0 it's basically a TTRPG with cards, there's no definite rules and they kind of make up their moves. Iirc it was meant to be sort of an adaptation of D&D with card games. It'd eventually turn in the Duel Monsters we all hate to love after a couple iterations and unsuccessful adaptations, like Bandai's.

    • @marvelsandals4228
      @marvelsandals4228 Před rokem +1

      The first chapter of the manga was very similar, but yes, the first shadow game was simpler. Yami told Ushio he brought the money, in fact, he brought MORE than Ushio asked for (and a knife), and Yami suggested they play a game to gamble for it. They took turns placing the stack of bills on the back of their left hand, then stabbed it with the knife. When you pull the knife off, you get to keep any bills that are still on it. If I recall, Ushio gets too greedy and stabs his own hand, then tries to steal all the money, so Yami tells him he has to play a "penalty game." Using his magical powers Yami puts him into an illusion where he is surrounded by money. In reality, it's just leaves and garbage, but he completely falls for it, and the next day he is seen in a pile of garbage laughing about how he's rich. Yami basically broke the man's mind.

    The first time we see the pharaoh being "evil" in the duel monsters anime is when he refused to forfeit the duel against Kaiba on the first season and decided that winning the duel was more important than not letting Kaiba commit suicide, but Yugi takes control and surrender the match. Yugi got too scared at the time and refused to let the pharaoh take control for some time, that scene has much more weight in it when we know about the several murders Atem commited on season zero.

      Nah, the first time was him mind crushing Kaiba in episode 1. After that he went into isolation and didn't snap out of his stupor until Pegasus kidnapped Mokuba. I don't think Yami was too concerned about what would happen to Kaiba, he was just pissed and wanted to punish him for what he did to Yugi's Grandpa.

    Season 0 is the story in the original manga. Then the story became completely focused on Duel Monsters during the Pegasus arc but the anime decided to reboot instead of continuing. Which is where the name season 0 comes from since it is sort of not really a prequel to duelist kingdom. Yugi summoning Exodia against Kaiba, beating Bakura in a shadow game and meeting Shadi all happen in season 0 but were redone in season 1 since it's technically a new show.

    The early manga/anime was a supernatural horror story about an ancient Egyptian pharaoh obsessed with games who possesses Yugi to get revenge on people who threaten him and his friends by challenging them to “shadow games” (dark, twisted versions of normal games, with karmic punishments for the loser). Eventually, one of the shadow games that was used was based on Magic The Gathering, called Duel Monsters in the manga. Fans of the manga wanted more Duel Monsters, so the manga became all about it over time, and then the real life card game was created to capitalize on its popularity in the manga. From that point on, the entire Manga/anime became more of a dark adventure story with Duel Monsters as the main focus.
    In Japan, the anime started about where the manga did, so the first season had nothing to do with Duel Monsters. In the US, 4kids decided to skip ahead until the introduction of Duel Monsters. So, the season without Duel Monsters became known as “season 0”

  • @MM-xn6tn
    @MM-xn6tn Před rokem +11

    The version fans call, "Season 0," was actually produced by Toei. The anime that everyone is more familiar with actually skips past the first 60 chapters of the manga and features Yugi's first duel against Seto as the first episode before going into the Duelist Kingdom arc. The manga it's certainly much darker, with the pharaoh acting as a dark antihero who inflicts physical/mental torture onto bullies and criminals that Yugi comes across, and some antagonists outright killing themselves.

  • @mariothane8754
    @mariothane8754 Před rokem +14

    Yugioh season 0 is basically “what if Saw took place with Egyptian magic.” It’s actually really interesting in its own way.
    The game here was “pick up cards, and you can take steps up equal to its value. The winner gets the money at the top, and the loser falls to their death.”

    Fun fact about the Manga for this section, when Yugi is talking about the Millennium Puzzle, he mentions how when it's completed, the person who completed it will be granted one wish, like Dragonball.
    That's right, Dragonball is canonically referenced in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Manga.

    Season 0 is the first adaptation of the manga. Where the card game wasn't a thing till like 50 chapters later.
    The manga content before the 1st Kaiba duel was never adapted in the main anime series. That stuff covered how the 4 became friends, proper introduction to the pharaoh, him and Yugi developing their friendship, introduction of Shadi, Bakura and Mokuba (who was kinda a psycho originally. Playing Russian Roulette against Joey with poisoned food)

  • @2l84me8

    Season 0 is basically a retconned season in which the writers decided to focus entirely on the card game aspect as it lead to higher sales. That’s also why the first season of Yugioh just did whatever they wanted in duels. The rules were still being created at the time.

    The series we know as Yu-Gi-Oh!, and by extension Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series, is technically a reboot (while we refer to it as Yu-Gi-Oh!, technically the official title is called Yu-Gi-Oh!: Duel Monsters). Originally the series was darker in nature and more focussed on character development, while the card game was merely a plot device. However, from what I understand, audiences became very much interested in this fantasy card game, so after a single season and a movie of the original series (which we now refer to as Season Zero), it was rebooted into a series where the card game was both on full display from the beginning and integrated into the plot. Once again, due to audience reactions, this eventually led them to make the card game real to reflect the new series.

    It is important to say that the Yu-Gi-Oh we know has nothing to do with season 0
    Season 0 was where the manga started, which would be about dark games played by an ancient pharaoh to purge evil people.
    However, in one chapter they play a card game in which the pharaoh's power makes the monsters come out of the cards, this made many readers think it was pretty cool
    So after a while card games became the main focus of the manga, and it was only then that the Kingdom of Duelists began.
    In the anime as we know it, season 0 is non-canonical

    The manga of Yu gi oh had this dark tone to it, the first "villan" beating up Jony-Uchi, Honda and Yugi. Yugi finaly ending the puzzle had inherited the soul of the pharaon and became the Yu-Gi oh="King of games", not just one game, all of them. He then challenged the bully into stabing a pile of money above their own hands whit a sharp knife. Each getting the money they stabbed. When the bully tried to stab Yugi to get the moment, then he was punished by the shadow game. I actualy prefered the first mangas of Yu gi oh because it wasn't just about card games.

    I'll wait and see if maybe ep 2 or 3 introduces the Duel Monsters card game (I honestly don't remember how soon it gets introduced), because there's some tiny bits of useless trivia surrounding it and the general reception of both the show and the card game, but I don't want to spoil anything.

    Joey looks cooler because this part of the manga was made before Yu-Gi-Oh got popular, so the characters have more effort put into their designs. In the main series, they were drawn simpler so it'd be easier on the artist.
