The Dark Origins of Yu-Gi-Oh! 

Hab erst vor kurzem die Staffel 0 gesehen: Zu sehen wie Tea, Yugis inoffizieller Freundin, ein Tuch mit Chlorophor auf den Mund gedrückt wird, ist...naja. Ein interesannter Anblick?

You should do a video on duelist of roses🤔

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

TheJWittz Duelist of the Roses music :) 👍🏻

I always thought that the Darkest punishment was when Mokuba lost and thought he was trapped in a capsule. At least, the darkest one I've seen so far. I haven't finished it yet.

This reminds me of "if uno was an anime"

😂😂😂

You're fault for not listening when he said "this is a game where your life is at stake"

You must check The new "Yu-gi-oh Poker Night"

Sonds right

Brian the Trainer SILENCE!

Christopher why are you in like every commet section?

oh... how did you do italics? i know only how to do bold here

Saying hello to the shadow realm Hello Shadow Realm

"Looks like you tried to make me go fish when in fact, you did have a 3 in hand, now you MUST PERISH."

Lol

Only going for the flamethrower? Yugi must be feeling generous today...

Mr. Dragon ah yes good ol death by children’s card game

@@murderouscow No, not generous. He's just bored and cannot be bothered.

HANZ GET ZE FLAMENWERFER

Both of those were my favorites as well

There was only one thing I hated about that arc, and that was Yugi using Slifer as bait so Seto could try to mark Diabound with his sword. That was just complete and utter stupidity. Even if that gambit succeeded none of the other priests monsters would have been able to take him down anyway. He threw away a god monster hoping that a bunch of weaker monsters would be able to take Bakura down.

I always wandered why he's called Yami (dark) watching Duel Monsters. Then i started season 0 and i understood. Now i came to know the manga is even more evil, gud. More sense to the name.

Winnie The Pooh it makes more sense then you make of it because with atem being a pharaoh he is then considered as a personification of the god Osiris (same as the god card Osiris which is why atem is so linked to it). And Osiris after his death was made responsible for judging deceased souls on their resting place. In a way the games atem plays are a reflection of the very same test Osiris would perform to judge the soul and character of the deceased.

@@nightsl4532 thank you for the trivia

That's what the Abridged Yugi once said...

Little kuriboh is a legend

We all know all it take is a wave to break you lol

Good one

HunterXorus7 I read that in Yugi’a voice....

Just straight up shoot your opponent before they use any card and say you outplayed them.

Muda da.

Well that wasn't very knife. ...Oh wait.

YOU ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD...... GETTING SET ON FIRE BURN HERETIC

*when your about to lose*

Me: That's exactly how you get hepatitis

Yami Yugi: "Trust me, the Shadow Realm is child's play compared to what I've done in the past. Let me tell you about the time I set up this one guy to be lit on fire..."

Unversed Hero mhm

Unversed Hero I love “VICTIM” XD

Yami Yugi: ‘The Door of Darkness opens.’ Some guy: ‘Boi I was playing solitare.’

lol I highly doubt the word victim is the right word for it. if the pharaoh is challenging them to a shadow game in the first place and worse if he believes they deserves to get punished, then you KNOW they did something shady.

Yugi: oh my god why does he have a knife

Why to cut people's fingers off and force them to eat it of course. I'm not even kidding this is actually the reason he has the knife and Seto's even crazier.

When someone quotes a Vine and you know it...

Mokuba: Don't worry, I'm gonna use it on Yugi Kaiba: Oh, then go ahead

Seto went from sociopathic nutjob to the greatest anti hero of all time

That berserker soul episode is that ss0 Atem moments.

But setting people on fire was interesting xD

You can see that with the end of the Kaibaland arc. He would be entirely justified in killing him, or at least doing serious damage. However, he chooses to give him a second chance to reform into a better person. This arc continues into the D&D game with Bakura (which may or may not even be in the show, I've never watched it), where the Pharoh expresses great pride in Yugi's courage to put himself on the front line with his friends.

BURN TO THE GROUND! BURN!

@@zhaoyun255 Now it's stuck in my head. BURN TO THE GROUND! BURN! BURN TO THE GROUND! Gosh darn it, Mega Man X7.

Dont remember that

its was amazing i loved it

​@Amazing Spiderman Fan 2002 I'm two months late but heres the full episode : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9T0VlpFC8Oo.html it's only like 14 minutes and I highly suggest watching it all for context, but also cause you get to see the really grim end to that guy. but if you want heres just the part where the guy get's mindfucked here it is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_Zlw0lCGUT4.html

What about in the manga when the guy was set on fire

Ah yes, my favorite scene :D (Ok no tf is that tho)

lel

Thats the only yu-gi-oh i watch and its my favorite

Ah Yes, The Forbidden Anime. The thing that Most Fans Rarely knows when going Deep into Yu-gi-oh

It not possible no one has ever seen it

@@SavageOwl36 pffftt season 0 is the only season

Call the police, cuz he’s going in dry

Panic

*Next time I play yu gi oh:* My opponent: nice man, good game Me: the door to darkness has opened My opponent: wait wha-

Honestly, we don’t know what happens to people when they lose. But when they cheat. ^^

SAY FELLAS, DID SOMEBODY MENTION THE DOOR TO DARKNESS?

That's not all, in the manga Keith threatens Pegasus with a knife instead of a gun.

@@zmslayer69 mainly because they were a lot closer to each other in the manga

@@Alb410 Not exactly, threating someone with a knife makes it seem way more serious and intense than with a gun. That's why they changed it in the anime.

@@zmslayer69 hes talking about the guy with a bandana. the biker looking guy. the guy whose hand was turned into a gun...

@@madbeef420 I know

Check out CHAOSIC Rune

Star Dreamer he’s not the only RU-vidr that mentioned that trivia though because Little Kurriboh mentioned that too, and his most favorite Yu-Gi-Oh series is season 0.

Takahashi ripped off Araki's D'arby the Elder.

Kinda makes me think of The Laughing Salesman, now that I think about it...

Battle City arc in the manga is arguably darker than the season 0, and this was a moment after the card game got introduced. In the manga Malik ( Marik ) literally tore off his father's skin and tried to implant it on his brother Rishid's ( odion ) face.

Firefly I knew that there’s a season 0 that was never made outside of Japan, but unless you can understand Japanese then the only way to watch it legally without pirating it is by buying the series online on VHS tapes on watching them.

I blew my roommates mind when I told him there was a actually violent YuGiOh. 😂😂😂

Firefly he talked about it you didnt watch the video

@@RoronoaZoro-ur6hr I found the complete season on youtube fansubbed, unless they took it down. I saved it, though...

@@mx.n.3682 that's piracy

I'd love a video talking about the original anime

@@FlexCloud why?

@@samwai3762 What do you mean? I'm talking about the anime mentioned in the video that was dark. "Season 0", remember?

@@FlexCloud My point is the anime should be easier to find than the manga, so you can go watch it ourselves

*sees in my RU-vid feed* Never watched a single second of the show, don't play the card game or knows anyone who plays it _eh why not_

*Grew up with OG YuGiOh* *Sees ub RU-vid Recommended* Hello darkness my old friend

*Sees this in my recommend* It's game time

Say, fellas, did somebody mention the Door to Darkness?

Yep yugi set him straight

Wished Trudge and Yami Yugi had a special dialogue referring to the Season Zero bit.

Where can I read the manga

There is a Ra indeed

@@kwayke9 Ra, the Mega Ultra Chicken along with Obelisk the Tormentor and Osiris/Slifer the Executive Producer.

Well, he isn’t really a Pokémon/ nintendo channel anymore. At this point he’s a gaming youtuber with a favor for Nintendo stuff

JamesDavy2009 And Horakthy.

I dunno. I mean, some of the censorship was really dumb, but I think the “Shadow Realm” was actually a good change. The series has that theme of dark ancient secrets, men playing with powers far beyond their control. And a realm of nothing but a sickly purple haze that eats away at your soul really helps sell that idea. The best censorship of scary concepts are the ones that become even scarier than the original when you come back later

This is what I want

@@spindash64 I feel like we could get a good mixture if they release the episodes uncut but still dubbed. There’s parts where the shadow realm works really well, but others where it feels incredibly out of place, like the duel against Arcana/Pandora’s in battle city, trying to play off a bunch of spinning saw blades as dark energy blades that will send you straight to the shadow realm instead of cutting off your legs is a little off.

@@roastingghosts1302 They released an uncensored dub but it only covers the first 9 episodes.

@Roasting Ghosts I always thought it would actually cut off your legs and slide you off into the Shadow Realm like a slide.

yugi: completes puzzle atem: hey kid do you like fire

In my Yugioh fan series, I made a joke that Yami was renting Yugi's body and they don't share pain and ill-ness

Yea unfortunately today's game is about spamming FTK's and the animated show became cancer, RIP it had a great run and didn't deserve this treatment.

One of my fav scenes is when young Kaiba greatly exceded the expectations of Kaiba Corp CEO. So he decided to give him the company right then and there by jumping trough the glass and killing himself. Edgy, brutal, but so memorable

Right

I read the manga as a little kid. Probably why I'm so messed up nowadays...

plus it was stated the yami was very dark in the beginning and mellowed out as the series went on

@@da-vidcargill4975 Well the author originally wanted to do a horror manga which is why Yami Yugi's appearance and actions are very dark. If i'm not mistaken i believe Yami means Darkness in Japanese. Yugi is supposed to be the innocent child like side of the character while Yami is the dark side that seeks vengeance against those who wrong him and his friends.

Well technically, yugi's knife was the other guy's knife. But he just borrows it to play the "stabbing cash" game.

@@operationstratos1013 Ahhh, got ya. Been a while. :P

yami: sets him on fire, her on fire, sets everyone on fire!

@Komaru Naegi that line always makes me laugh

Even Mokuba god a knife. Domino City was like Gotham before Seto turned it to duelist heaven.

No....the show anericans saa was completely different

Captain Zoltan77 you’re actually right about how 4Kids really did butcher Yu-Gi-Oh because the manga artist originally wanted his anime series to be a lot like Saw or Dexter but animated, but before some reason people used to think that just because a show is animated it most be for children which is further from the truth.

Heh... 4kids: "ooh look! We get to introduce another anime!" *Sees season zero* "D E L E T E"

I miss the hardcore guff

"I BANISH YOU TO A DIMENSION WHERE YOU CANNOT HUG ME!"

@@sarafontanini7051 hahahaha you cannot stop the power of friendship!

@@Schnort look up littlekuriboh yugioh abridged season zero or something

Underrated af

Including Kaiba getting a literal serial killer (a Jason-like guy) to get back at Yugi, then trying to crush them under blocks (almost killed Tristan), etc.

We forgot Kaiba was a sociopath

Of course he was evil. He used to have GREEN HAIR!

oh yeah! with "death t-4" against Mokuba, and "death t-5" against Kaiba which is originally when Yami Yugi first plays Exodia

What about Eggmanland?

Lol that would be great.

the shadow games were real though. Yami no Game, Game of Darkness. You lose, you suffer a punishment game, which either erodes your mind in an illusion or straight up kills you.

"To the Shadow Realm with you! J.k. i have killed you." *in LittleKuribos voice*

The shadow realm is basically death anyway. Your soul trapped in a horrific world full of monsters with no escape while your body is forever comatose. IT’S BASICALLY DEATH.

Where can I read the manga

I feel the need to mention Yuugi once was hanged from his puzzle rope

Lol

Criminal: Let ask me ask you something kid? Have you ever danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight? Yami: As matter of fact I have. We were on a blind date. Unfortunately he never returns my calls … *says I'm too creepy.*

OH MY GOD DANGANRO- *cough,* I like that game too.

ayy nice dorohedoro profile pic

Now we know way

It's in libraries

@Amazing Spiderman Fan 2002 Why?

I'm twelve and would rather have read the original manga. Also, it's Jo-no-chi. Why do people think it's so hard?

Ava Keniley-Browning I was a kid dude, I didn’t know better. I know how to pronounce it now.

The other day, out of habit I said Jonouichi. One of my friends was like, "wut?" And the other just yelled "ANZU" (I kinda looked like her that day...)

Well, shounen jump is pretty much targetted at grade school and junior high kids in Japan so you were probably in the right age group, maybe not the right country (depending on how conservative your country is).

robotroadrage I was like 11, so no.

At my home that's mercy, imagine taking 20 due to a blank card.

Getting a draw 4 feels like being sent to the shadow realm

I know, draw +4

Heh heh, you fell into my trap card, +2!, stack now you have to draw four No you draw 6 No, u draw 8 Draw 10 Draw 12 Dra- Hah you didn’t call uno

"Bakura why!?" _"Because I'm British!"_

That’s a lot of damage ...to my soul

He does that in the anime too, minus the blood tho because 4kids.

tbh the spirit of the millennium ring is extremely messed up in the manga. he makes ryos life miserable by killing anyone who tries to befriend him and stabs ryo in the chest using the ring so that he can't take it off even if he wanted to. so yeah, seeing him licking some blood is not that surprising

The blood was already removed in the japanese anime.

Yeah I felt like that aspect of Yugi punishing the criminals because they all ended up cheating was slightly overlooked. More focusing on the season 0 shock factor so to speak.

The arcs are actually structured a lot like jojo with the evil of the week, and at the end instead of the token ora ora beatdown once villian defeated yugi mindcrushes or kills them

69th

I burn with cleansing flame or glassing planets

Falsebound kingdoom for the GameCube gamers, But I was thinking the same, That soundtrack is perfect

Thank you that game needs a rereleasing

That soundtrack needs so much more attention! Also that game needs a remaster and massive expansion allowing the collection of the entire card collection through insane grind

Second that!! Would love to see that!

Third it! (Don't know if that is a thing- don't care. It is now.) THIRD IT!!!!!

I think one of THE MOST terrifying/awesome moments from the manga is what happened the day Marik went evil. The dad was heating up swords and stabbing them into Odion. Then Marik went into his alter ego and literally sliced off the skin of his fathers back and threw it onto Odion as a joke. "Hey, you wanted proof of belonging to our family? Here, have my dad's tattoo."

In the Japanese version Marik straight up killed his dad as a kid and Odion after his loss in Battle City

@@toangreenlow2229 Marik never killed Odion or he wouldn't have been able to bring Marik back to his senses during the finals. He certainly tried, though. He just kept getting interrupted, and eventually they hid him somewhere.

Looks brown to me

Yes comdy

Alternatively... DM Yugi: Can kinda hold his own, but mostly needs Yami till the end Season 0 Yugi: Completely sucks at every game and needs Yami to beat people for him Manga Yugi: Absolute God at games, defeats almost everyone, can definitely hold his own, doesn't exactly need Yami, but they are an amazing duo

Brian Smith both Mokuba and Kaiba were psychopaths in the original manga

Wonder if he still sees leaves as money

@@AxisChurchDevotee probably why we dont see trudge and leaves in the same frame in yugioh 5ds

Season zeros yami and yugi voice actress actually did one of the Dangaronpa protagonists

_upupupupupu~_

You know Yu-Gi-Oh is the most popular card game in human history, right? Yu-Gi-Oh has held the record for the largest card game tournament like 3 different times. And if you consider the 3 separate 200th YCS tournaments that were being held as a single event, to be a single tournament, then Yu-Gi-Oh currently holds the record with over 10,000 players between the 3 cities. The tournament in Columbus Ohio alone had nearly 3000 players. And there are tons of Yu-Gi-Oh related RU-vidrs. Dzeef, teamAPS, house of champs, cimoooooo, NyhmNim, dpYGO, davinator1212, and simply unlucky just to name a few of the bigger ones. They call themselves "yugitubers". I think saying "Yu-Gi-Oh needs more players" is a tad unnecessary. We're overrun with players.

@maxie fuqua Don't forget about Rank10(Rata). And can we count Littlekuriboh as a yugituber? I mean, he does almost exclusively YGO related content, streams Duel Links duels and did Booster Pack openings

@@JackOfen rata is awesome. His stuff is hilarious. I don't know if I would count little kuriboh as a yugituber, but he's definitely worth mentioning.

maxie fuqua true.Plus Cinnoooo,Veiz,Yugioh everything and Asian blue eye white dragon I recommend them.

@@edwardrobinson5470 I mentioned cimoooooo, never heard of veiz, and azneyes is kinda trash.

I mean, if you traded rare cards for Dark Magicians, I'd hate to tell you but you got ripped off.

@@Medbread That's the point! I thought it'd be funny to collect dark magicians, one of the most popular cards but also very weak.. I do have a 2 limited edition glossy dark magicians with a gold border tho!

@@navivaldez6240 Well, actually, those are from the Dark Side of Dimensions set, where every card in the pack is gold, and the Dark Magician in that set runs for around $1.26 USD. There are multiple cards in that set that are worth much more than the Dark Magician, such as the Blue Eyes Alternative White Dragon, worth about $17.79 USD. Though, I understand you're a Dark Magician fanatic, so don't let me stop you P.S. I like your pfp

@@Medbread Thanks for informing me💜. P.S. I love you too 😉
