It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
View MoreIt really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
View MoreNot sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
View MoreActress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
View MoreOne episode. That was all I could take of this show.I must say, I never was a big fan of the original "Yugioh" cartoon. Too be honest, I always found it to be very silly (I mean, the characters act as if some children's card game were a matter of life and death) but this cartoon managed to take all the bad things of the original series into a whole new level.The animation of this show is pretty bad, with hideous designs and a ugly use of colors. The characters were bland and clichéd, but what was so incredibly bad of this series were the terrible lines that each character said. I have to say that I never, never saw such a huge amount of incredibly dumb lines contained in so short time.That episode was too much for me. It was enough to convince me about how bad this cartoon was.This is probably one the dumbest cartoons ever made in the history of animation.0/10(I would rate it with a negative score if I could)
View MoreI have somewhat an affinity to the 4kids Yugioh--Hey I didn't know it was a mess up of the Japanese version--When I found out about original version first time I came across the manga, nabbed it and loved it too. I think of 4kids as taking place in another dimension and the manga in another dimension. Back to 4kids Yugioh--it's better than messed up Pokemon which I swear I wonder why the latter show hung on so long. Having watched GX I figured why Pokemon is still going strong.Let me start with average episode--Oftenimes Left me scratching my head. What's going on here and why is it so boring? The reason for their dueling I had not the slightest idea. Worse, IMO too many characters looking like original Yugioh characters. The worse offender is Shō Marufuji (Syrus Truesdale)--Turn hair upside, ditch his glasses, dye it purple front yellow at the hairline and see who's there. And if a character doesn't look like an old character they act like one--Good God, Shō's (Syrus) brother. Seto cocky Kaiba. I'd love to see GX the Japanese version--And while I search for it watch the Yugioh's more superior better Capsule Monsters saga better I mean it had coherent plot than this. Still I'm giving it 2 as unappealing I find this show, it's better than mind numbingly repetitive Pokemon,
View MoreI can't fault them for lack of giving it a good shot. Yu-Gi-Oh GX is another butchering or an anime put out by 4kids, but honestly, this could have been much, much worse. The names weren't too radically changed and was pretty much the only option in some cases (ask anyone to pronounce 'Manjoume'(although I was disappointed to see a character named Cronos go)) and they actually didn't fiddle too much with the base script. Unfortunately, they still wrote out plenty, and the voice acting was, as usual, mostly absurd. But, like I said, it still could have been worse. There are a few places where they use the concept of death, and the writers had the good sport to reference the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged series once or twice, to my surprise. The aforementioned voice acting wasn't all totally bad, and I was a little glad to see they wrote out Cronos' (Crowler's) Italian accent, which annoyed me a little in the original series. The bottom line for it all is, it's pretty bad, but not nearly as bad as it could have been. I hope 4Kids continues to improve. On a lighter note, if you're a fan of the game(and thus able to get into the show's plot), this is a good show to springboard yourself into anime with.
View MoreOK, I'm sure many people will hate me for this, but i've gotta say it. Just as the original YuGiOh this series suffered because of either unable or too creative translators. So, they changed the names. Alright, if they think it's necessary, then do it. At least they're not as spoiled as in Detective Conan/Case Closed. But they even changed the dialogs. Most significant difference: In the Japanese version there is none, absolutely NONE romantic relationship between Asuka(Alexis) and Judai(Jaden). The only romance is between Sho(Syrus) and... any female character, between Jun(Chazz) and Asuka and the stuff about Rei(Blair). So, don't get angry, but things are like this. All in all, it is a good series, but... they should have aired the originals, even if you don't understand a word, you can at least enjoy the duels, as long as you know the cards on your own.
