During the Duel with Yugi and Kaiba, The reason why spells could be activated on their opponents turn even though they weren't quick-play spells was because on Kaiba's first turn he activated Spell Sanctuary, which allows them to add 1 spell card to their hand and has the continuous effect allowing them to activate spell cards on their opponents turn. The English dub decided this wasn't an important detail to mention for some reason but it was mentioned in the Japanese dub.
Battle city rules also state that whenever your opponent special summons a monster you're able to special summon monster also which is why yugi was able to summon Red-Eyes with kaiba's flute of summoning dragons
They actually did this in Zexal, where the big machine guy uses his 3200 monster to attack Yuma for game, and it’s so loud that Yuma can’t hear Astral going: “Use your trap Yuma!”
Ironically in the manga when Joey faces Espa Roba near the beginning of battle city he says “his deck is a gambling deck, it’s almost all luck based cards!!” Yeah that’s as true as you get.
You forgot the greatest thing of all... despite the fact of 4kids censoring guns and violence (think of the kids!)... they replaced "death" with the "shadow realm." A place of eternal torment and despair. Lol.
My favourite line from Kaiba in the entire anime is the "Well that was a total waste of my time" when he's talking about the Noah/Gozuboro arc. It's probably the only time the entire fan base collectively sighed and went... Yep
Blame 4Kids for making Kaiba so unbelievable. In the Japanese version Kaiba does accept that Magic is a thing and is part of their lives 4Kids for some reason completely forgot that Kaiba can apparently grow as character. I love snarky Kaiba but its annoying to see him not progress at all. Not defending any of the bullshit but just sharing my opinion :)
Most definitely agree! Even when I was watching this series as a kid, there was a part of me that wanted Kaiba to have some type of character development. The whole denial about his ancient Egyptian past kinda got fuckin annoying after a while. Kaiba legit has ZERO growth throughout the series.
kaiba is especially strange in the last season.he literally was teleported to another world,had some of his lifeforce ripped out of him,was part of the war against the darkness and witnessed every little bit of shit that happened and the only thing he basicly says is "maybe everything yugi said wasnt complete bs".well,no shit,kaiba
Kaiba does grow as a character...just very slowly. Also this is Yu-Gi-Oh. That's officially more than you can say for half the cast at least. And stubbornness is an undeniable part of his character.
I'm currently a second-year dental student and I have my board licensing exam in a week but instead, I'm watching this man break down the flaws of every season of Yugioh. I want to die but at the same time, I want to live. Thank you.
Let's disconnect this critically injured person from life support so he can stare out the window at a card game he cant possibly be conscious enough to see!!! This is why you're the worst character Tristan.
He probably thought that someone could just play something that restores life points to wake him up. Would make about as much sense as anything else they do.
How would he know what joey wants. I'd be pissed as hell if someone put something heavy on my arms without permission and while i was injured, regardless of wether or not they had good intentions
It *_WAS_* Tristan at first, but at some point he stops talking, and Duke starts talking. Good God! *_HOW_* do you people actually lose fucking IQ points while using RUclips, be you commenting on a video the comment section still exists, or uploading videos supposedly calling people's mistakes out, but making mistakes of your own yourselves?!?!?
Can you imagine if Joey was the one to beat Marik? Not only would it be a huge W for Joey, but it would break the trend of the main character beating the main antagonist
The millennium puzzles ability is to give the user a infinite amount of luck stated in the data book so all the ass pulls and playing cards without looking at them actually makes sense but its still lazy writing.
I just realized marik never actually won a single duel, mai,joey, and even fucking bakura outplayed him perfectly then he just pull more shit out his ass and win anyway
The reason why something like YuGiOh is packed with flashbacks isn't just to fill time, it's also because the studios that produce these weekly shonen serials start with the basic assumption that a certain number of viewers could at any given time just be tuning in but have never seen the previous episodes, so they put these flashbacks in there to provide context for them. That's what makes these series so easy for lots of people to get into cause somebody who is new to the series or who hasn't been keeping up with it can almost jump in at any point and be brought up to speed with all the characters and all the major events cause some character or two is going to explain everything for the upteenth time.

(Also there's a line in the KC tournament arc of Tea saying Joey doesn't duel with Luck, he duels with skill that I laugh at because of the aforementioned fuck ton of luck based cards in Joey's deck) Also despite Marik only having one life point, Yugi still had a pretty big chance of loosing because his last move had him literally removing all his monster cards from the game.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure there was a line in the manga where Tristan (well, Tristan wasn’t named that in the JP version, so his equivalent) says that Joey is less of a duelist and more of a gambler
13:52 LMAO, also in the Yugi vs Kaiba duel how the hell did Rex Raptor know about the Egyptian Gods yet Kaiba never heard of them at the start of the season with Ishizu?
I have a theory. Remember that random bully Kaiba beat with obelisk? I think that dude told everyone about that duel. Either that or Kaiba’s employees told friends and family about them. Since you know...Kaiba tells all his employees what his plans are and what to look for with the satellites.
3:30 let's count how many cards he's won/taken from other people: jinzo, legendary fisherman, whale fortress/the ritual spell, insect queen and whatever card that he won from odion, if any. That's 5-6 cards, saying that Joey's deck is just a bunch of boss monsters with no synergy is making him seem like he doesn't know how to play the game and is just doing the monsters because they're the best cards thing again. While yes, they don't have much synergy he has shown that he can summon them(specifically jinzo, a really good card) pretty easily. Also he needs those boss monsters, his deck lost the most powerful card, red eyes, joey uses luck based cards to make up for his lack of power when compared to dark magician, bewd, the God cards, etc., by having these boss monsters, he's (to some degree) reducing his need for luck to make up in power. Edit: also, if we count Gilford the lighting he has a deck which has to make 7 tributes to summon his boss make(8 if he wants to activate Gilfords effect) and let's face it, insect queen isn't going to be used much due to having to tribute one to attack so that number is reduced to 5 or 6
Most of the cards in the show had really good effects but Konami changed them so they are not broken. For example: card of sanctity does let you draw until you have six cards in your hand but they new that the effect was kinda broken so they changed the card text.
What really infuriates me about Mai's battle with Marik is it basically was the tipping point for how badly she was treated in comparison to the other characters. In fact this very same conflict comes into play during "Waking the Dragons" but Mai ONLY gets defeated simply because Marik gains plot armor by having Ra know a secret ability that wasn't foreshadowed or anything, it only came into play the moment she took the card from him. Mai outplayed him, yet the episode decides to make her lose for NO reason other than "plot armor" I really liked Mai as a character, she was one of the only decent characters the show had (in fact she's more developed than most of them) but she's a character who also suffers from "The Worf Effect" where's she's made to look weak simply so other characters can look better, even though her personality and skill say otherwise, it also makes it more annoying when you realize that she was the only female character who's a duelist or isn't annoying like Tea. I also hate how Waking the Dragons ended her character, as she's not really seen again afterwards. And Tea just gets worse and worse as each episode passes. I can at least excuse Serenity because she's obviously a supporting character and moral support for Joey, but that's it she's a supporting character, and she isn't shoved in your face all the time like Tea. Also Kaiba is at his worst in this Season, here he's an apathetic Jerkass who's ego is the size of Jupiter. (Don't et me wrong I do like Kaiba, but I just think he goes overboard) I also disliked how BS his rules were when it came to disregarding Joey and Bakura's injuries. It also makes no sense how he was surprised Joey survived Ra's attack the previous episode, the insults Joey to his face when it comes to dueling him! Overall great video and I very much agree with the criticisms. Though I will admit, this did seem like more of you ranting in hatred than it did an actual Everything Wrong with (though I get the intent was done for comedy purposes, so I can get behind that), still I did at least enjoy what was stated.
Mai's entire time in waking the dragons killed her as a character. It made her seem to take an entire step backward in terms of going back to having shallow motivations (wanting fame but not getting it), highly malleable by how valon and dartz easily used her insecurities to turn her against her friends after all they did for her instead of actually telling them she was having problems, face-turned her back as abruptly as her heel turn came simply by remembering "oh yeah! they *were* my friends, weren't they?", worf'd her again by making her unable to get her revenge (because she's not a main character), and then wrote her out of the show. Mai was one of my favourite characters in the anime, but heel turning her so ridiculously was what killed it for her Also note that 4kids seemed to go well out of their way to make Kaiba completely irredemable. They changed so many things about him. In the japanese, he was much more receptive to the whole ancient egypt stuff, his bs rules towards joey and bakura's injuries were much more mild, and he was not nearly as venomous towards joey (and don't even get me started on how they wrecked joey)
@chase newill Exactly, it's a stupid ass rant. Yugi (Yami) is the main character, he has shown and proven (with some plot armor and ass pulls sure) that he has the dueling skills necessary to beat the big baddies everytime. Hell, if Mai or Joey beat Marik, not only would that make Marik completely redundant and stupid, it would also cut the season short (duh) and make it seem like those two are stronger than Yugi, which they are not, seeing as Yugi has beaten them both, easily as well.
Another Duel Disk feature that randomly disappeared is that they press buttons on the disk itself to activate spell/trap cards, you see Joey do it in the first duels after he and Yugi get the Duel Disks. It was almost immediately removed and they never do it anymore.
No wonder the entire show a mess, it's because its a flash back told by Tea, the real battle itself may follow the rule, but because its a flashback told by Tea memory, the rule is all over the place...
8:53 lullaby of obedience didnt even exist back then, its a fairly recent card, so the reason why the effect is not literally the same cuz konami decided to make it more "balanced" also you forget to mention how much of a bullshit effect "Final Attack Orders" has in this duel, where it kills your entire deck except for 3 choosen cards...that is almost as overpowered as "last turn"
DJ0fthedead that sounds extremely doubtful from everything I've learned about how youtubers get paid from advertisements. Maybe after 30 seconds or so it'll be the same, but not after someone skips it right away. Basically, I doubt advertisers would pay the same for a 5 second add compared to someone watching the full thing.
A major issue that seems to have been omitted from this otherwise amazing assessment is that, if you watch the "Clash in the Coliseum" duel closely, you will see that, once or twice (once for dead-ass certain), Kaiba actually takes two turns in a row. He completes a play/turn, he and Yugi share some dialogue, and then Kaiba immediately says "My turn, Yugi" and he draws and begins again without Yugi ever getting his own turn LOL. I don't know if it was poor editing or what have you, but it was stupid.
Say what’s you want about this season the Yugi vs Noah duel is one of the greatest comebacks in duel monsters history and the way he takes out Noah in one move from 9000LP TO zero is so fucking epic.
Not trying to defend bad writing. But a lot of the reason cards do different things in the anime is because most of them were made *after* their anime episode, nothing is being changed from card-game to anime in the episodes, but the other way around.. Electromagnetic Turtle only came out in 2015 for instance, and Card of Sanctity only came out in 2005 when the episode you're talking about came out in 2004. I mean I'm sure you know that, but yeah. Give me a reason to be a smug boi.
But wouldn't it be bad because then the show kinda like gave false info about how the cards ruled and played? Say the monster has an A effect in the show, but in actuality it give B effect. I always wondered about it.
@@IR-Fan The reason is that the card abilities in the anime are written to make an episode or manga chapter flow naturally, while the versions of them made after the anime and manga are done using them are made to make a real life card game that has some form of balance.For example the Concept of Quickplay spells doesn't exist in the anime all spells are quickplay spells
I love what you're doing here on youtube, I've been binging your videos for a while now ~ And I could listen to your voice for hours on end, man. I might have a guy crush.
~9:26~ "...he only has two cards, so where did that extra card come from?" *Yami Yugi suspiciously glances to the side* That was brilliant editing, to think I didnt notice before XD
Your voice sounds so serious compared to how goofy you and your crew are in the moments we see footage of you guys lol. Love this Yugioh series and I come back every so often to rewatch again.
Lol I love that the fact he chose the one dragon ball super moment where the show tried something reasonably original as an example of anime protagonist cliches
The Noah Arc was important for understanding Kaiba’s character. Seeing as the end of battle city was a huge part of his development I think having that understanding really sells it. Though 4kids didn’t exactly do a very good job with it anyway, but the Japanese version did. It was way longer than it should have been, but it wasn’t entirely unnecessary.
@@inconemay1441 absolutely! And it would still work given what happens during the second half of the Battle City finals. It would help us understand why Kaiba wanted to destroy the island.
Another point to add here is Marik constantly summons Ra from the Graveyard when in the Card game Ra can't be Special Summoned unless he is Tribute Summoned first. Marik never tribute summons Ra in the show
To be fair the God cards wouldn't be added to the TCG until 2010 and none of them would have even half the abilities they have in the anime (and anime Ra had like 20 different abilities).
During the Duel with Yugi and Kaiba, The reason why spells could be activated on their opponents turn even though they weren't quick-play spells was because on Kaiba's first turn he activated Spell Sanctuary, which allows them to add 1 spell card to their hand and has the continuous effect allowing them to activate spell cards on their opponents turn.

Darn it! i was gonna leave that comment... well i guess there's no point on doing it... Hail Kaiba
I thought it was because of Battle City Rules.
Came down here to say this but you beat me to it
Battle city rules also state that whenever your opponent special summons a monster you're able to special summon monster also which is why yugi was able to summon Red-Eyes with kaiba's flute of summoning dragons
Justin Jones really? I don't think i ever knew that. Did kaiba say that when he was going over the rules for his tournament?
Next time when my opponent attacks me for game, I'm just going to make really loud noises so his monsters can not hear his command.
Mattheuw1154 how about yelling "YUGIOH"
Time to practice my anime scream!

Mako is the sailor in that "Brandi, you're a fine girl" song.
Didn't he appear in the ending, I'm pretty sure he appeared in the ending
RIP Freaky Fish Guy 2000 ~ 2003
He will be missed =(
Knuckles:"OH NO"
Silver: "IT"S NO USE, TAKE THIS"
SHadow: "PLAY TIME IS OVER!"
These lines are perfect for Yu Gi Ou, only if they used more hahah
2:01 LMAO
3:18 🤣
The whole damn thing
3:30 let's count how many cards he's won/taken from other people: jinzo, legendary fisherman, whale fortress/the ritual spell, insect queen and whatever card that he won from odion, if any. That's 5-6 cards, saying that Joey's deck is just a bunch of boss monsters with no synergy is making him seem like he doesn't know how to play the game and is just doing the monsters because they're the best cards thing again. While yes, they don't have much synergy he has shown that he can summon them(specifically jinzo, a really good card) pretty easily. Also he needs those boss monsters, his deck lost the most powerful card, red eyes, joey uses luck based cards to make up for his lack of power when compared to dark magician, bewd, the God cards, etc., by having these boss monsters, he's (to some degree) reducing his need for luck to make up in power.
Edit: also, if we count Gilford the lighting he has a deck which has to make 7 tributes to summon his boss make(8 if he wants to activate Gilfords effect) and let's face it, insect queen isn't going to be used much due to having to tribute one to attack so that number is reduced to 5 or 6
“Gokus gonna beat Jiren”
....oh
Goku does beat jiren (with help but he still beat him) Android 17 was just the last man standing
KILL GOKU
To Be Fair You Need A Very High IQ To Understand the Yugi vs. Kaiba Duel!
By the standards of a 5 year old
Yeah like understanding what Kuriboh does
That joke was referenced on Reddit.
www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/8bk50l/the_pokemon_anime_was_never_really_that_good/
9:28 I love how as you ask where the extra card came from Yugi turns his eyes guiltily.
16:23 HOLY SHIT!! I have never seen Kaiba's eyes that wide open.
Most of the cards in the show had really good effects but Konami changed them so they are not broken. For example: card of sanctity does let you draw until you have six cards in your hand but they new that the effect was kinda broken so they changed the card text.
And somehow they fucked it up, by never making the card a + always a -
What really infuriates me about Mai's battle with Marik is it basically was the tipping point for how badly she was treated in comparison to the other characters. In fact this very same conflict comes into play during "Waking the Dragons" but Mai ONLY gets defeated simply because Marik gains plot armor by having Ra know a secret ability that wasn't foreshadowed or anything, it only came into play the moment she took the card from him. Mai outplayed him, yet the episode decides to make her lose for NO reason other than "plot armor" I really liked Mai as a character, she was one of the only decent characters the show had (in fact she's more developed than most of them) but she's a character who also suffers from "The Worf Effect" where's she's made to look weak simply so other characters can look better, even though her personality and skill say otherwise, it also makes it more annoying when you realize that she was the only female character who's a duelist or isn't annoying like Tea. I also hate how Waking the Dragons ended her character, as she's not really seen again afterwards.
And Tea just gets worse and worse as each episode passes. I can at least excuse Serenity because she's obviously a supporting character and moral support for Joey, but that's it she's a supporting character, and she isn't shoved in your face all the time like Tea. Also Kaiba is at his worst in this Season, here he's an apathetic Jerkass who's ego is the size of Jupiter. (Don't et me wrong I do like Kaiba, but I just think he goes overboard) I also disliked how BS his rules were when it came to disregarding Joey and Bakura's injuries. It also makes no sense how he was surprised Joey survived Ra's attack the previous episode, the insults Joey to his face when it comes to dueling him!
Overall great video and I very much agree with the criticisms. Though I will admit, this did seem like more of you ranting in hatred than it did an actual Everything Wrong with (though I get the intent was done for comedy purposes, so I can get behind that), still I did at least enjoy what was stated.
The amount of joy this comment brings me is indescribable XD.
I think that's because he's seto freakin kaiba
Mai deserves better indeed 😣
It really not that bad given that how Marik wins against both Joey and Mai, it perfectly in line with how he wins and I don’t mind it.
Mai's entire time in waking the dragons killed her as a character. It made her seem to take an entire step backward in terms of going back to having shallow motivations (wanting fame but not getting it), highly malleable by how valon and dartz easily used her insecurities to turn her against her friends after all they did for her instead of actually telling them she was having problems, face-turned her back as abruptly as her heel turn came simply by remembering "oh yeah! they *were* my friends, weren't they?", worf'd her again by making her unable to get her revenge (because she's not a main character), and then wrote her out of the show.
Mai was one of my favourite characters in the anime, but heel turning her so ridiculously was what killed it for her
Also note that 4kids seemed to go well out of their way to make Kaiba completely irredemable. They changed so many things about him. In the japanese, he was much more receptive to the whole ancient egypt stuff, his bs rules towards joey and bakura's injuries were much more mild, and he was not nearly as venomous towards joey (and don't even get me started on how they wrecked joey)
10:23 that caught me so off guard but I loved it 😂😂😂😭😭😭
2:14 rants like this give me life force
DID YOU SEE HOW COOL THAT WAS THAT GOKU BEAT JIREN?
Yeah cause seeing mai beat Marik would have made all that build up to Marik worth it.
@chase newill
Exactly, it's a stupid ass rant. Yugi (Yami) is the main character, he has shown and proven (with some plot armor and ass pulls sure) that he has the dueling skills necessary to beat the big baddies everytime.
Hell, if Mai or Joey beat Marik, not only would that make Marik completely redundant and stupid, it would also cut the season short (duh) and make it seem like those two are stronger than Yugi, which they are not, seeing as Yugi has beaten them both, easily as well.
bocodamondo k
What about life points?
Another Duel Disk feature that randomly disappeared is that they press buttons on the disk itself to activate spell/trap cards, you see Joey do it in the first duels after he and Yugi get the Duel Disks. It was almost immediately removed and they never do it anymore.
10:58 The Wikia rant cracks me up every time.
I never noticed they weren’t strapped in during that four way duel, or on the blimp. Kaiba doesn’t care about public safety at all!
in the manga joey was pronounce dead after the duel, I think his heart stoped
Paul Majano lolololol 😂
Should have stayed dead lmao 😂😂
Joey wasn't that bad. Sure, he was annoying with his accent, but eventually that will be the reason I will be making memes
7:22 “You can’t undo an action that’s already happened” DB’s playerbase would like a word...
Dueling Charisma omfg just use YGO pro lol
Joeys deck is how all of mine were set up when I was a kid lol
"Pizza, pasta, fuckin' lasagna" lol
I frequently come back to these videos after I binge YGOTAS.
I loved yugioh as a kid, but this has opened my eyes to just how damn ridiculous the show was😂
That's literally every show in existence (anime, live-action and animated).
*Kaiba spits at Joey* 1:51
It's raining!
Iny bis he deserved it
I use to love Yugioh as a kid. These vids rock! Keep it up!
-and then you get hit a card to the knee
10:23 Hotel Mario flashbacks ensue
No wonder the entire show a mess, it's because its a flash back told by Tea, the real battle itself may follow the rule, but because its a flashback told by Tea memory, the rule is all over the place...
14:41 Holy Shit! Even Joey figures this out! 😂😂
8:53 lullaby of obedience didnt even exist back then, its a fairly recent card, so the reason why the effect is not literally the same cuz konami decided to make it more "balanced"
also you forget to mention how much of a bullshit effect "Final Attack Orders" has in this duel, where it kills your entire deck except for 3 choosen cards...that is almost as overpowered as "last turn"
bocodamondo Same with left arm
This also applies to Cards of Sanctity
Electro magnetic turtle too.
Whats last turn do?
bocodamondo
"balanced" XD; that's funny, this game is the least balance piece of trash of a mess for a game.
Stop the video and scroll to 8:01 8:00 13:43
You are welcome.
Your doing the good work
Troll face is very real
2:23 you actually sound like King Kai from DBZ there
It's mind boggling how kaiba refuses to believe in magic time and time again
I just watched an add that was over 2 min for you. The best way to show that I love what you do, keep it up.
Sandman 66 I'm pretty sure he makes the same amount even if you skip
DJ0fthedead that sounds extremely doubtful from everything I've learned about how youtubers get paid from advertisements. Maybe after 30 seconds or so it'll be the same, but not after someone skips it right away. Basically, I doubt advertisers would pay the same for a 5 second add compared to someone watching the full thing.
Sandman 66 I think they made it so it's the advertisers job to get your attention before skipping but I'm not sure that's just how I thought it was
Woo, you paid him a cent and wasted 22 minutes of your life instead of 20. How smart.
The only thing I regret, is that the googly eyes weren't added to all the scenes with Joey. I know I know, animation is hard.
how many times has Joey lost to Kaiba./ then there was that time he was getting turned on from the thought of being kaibas dog slave
Bro that lava golem part had me dying omg “how else they gonna milk it in 6 episodes “.
as a kid, I fucking hated joey losing to marik, like i raged so hard i cried.
Sweet next is the Seal of the Plot Convenience. The writers wet dream of doing whatever the fuck it needs to.
They show the Marik sending mai to the shadow realm so many times
I swear there is literally no reason teà should be in the show
EXACTLY
Apparently she's supposed to be that one girl in an alll boys friend group 🙄
A major issue that seems to have been omitted from this otherwise amazing assessment is that, if you watch the "Clash in the Coliseum" duel closely, you will see that, once or twice (once for dead-ass certain), Kaiba actually takes two turns in a row. He completes a play/turn, he and Yugi share some dialogue, and then Kaiba immediately says "My turn, Yugi" and he draws and begins again without Yugi ever getting his own turn LOL. I don't know if it was poor editing or what have you, but it was stupid.
Say what’s you want about this season the Yugi vs Noah duel is one of the greatest comebacks in duel monsters history and the way he takes out Noah in one move from 9000LP TO zero is so fucking epic.
I think I just jizzed in my pants when I saw the title.
Not trying to defend bad writing. But a lot of the reason cards do different things in the anime is because most of them were made *after* their anime episode, nothing is being changed from card-game to anime in the episodes, but the other way around.. Electromagnetic Turtle only came out in 2015 for instance, and Card of Sanctity only came out in 2005 when the episode you're talking about came out in 2004.
I mean I'm sure you know that, but yeah. Give me a reason to be a smug boi.
But wouldn't it be bad because then the show kinda like gave false info about how the cards ruled and played? Say the monster has an A effect in the show, but in actuality it give B effect. I always wondered about it.
@@IR-Fan The reason is that the card abilities in the anime are written to make an episode or manga chapter flow naturally, while the versions of them made after the anime and manga are done using them are made to make a real life card game that has some form of balance.For example the Concept of Quickplay spells doesn't exist in the anime all spells are quickplay spells
I love what you're doing here on youtube, I've been binging your videos for a while now ~ And I could listen to your voice for hours on end, man. I might have a guy crush.
13:38 I love how well cvit's voice was synched with Joey's lip and body movement. Was that intentional?
~9:26~ "...he only has two cards, so where did that extra card come from?" *Yami Yugi suspiciously glances to the side*
That was brilliant editing, to think I didnt notice before XD
I only role play as Mokuba >:O Don't make fun of him.
Shut up mokuba
Joseph Huynh Only big brother tells me to shut up
House of Champs man , kinda weird knowing everyone's your older brother
House of Champs Shut up Mokuba
he can't respond ... he was already kidnapped again
“I place myself down and end my turn”
1:31 "I just got here, what's going on???" *Blank Lenny face*
Your voice sounds so serious compared to how goofy you and your crew are in the moments we see footage of you guys lol. Love this Yugioh series and I come back every so often to rewatch again.
I didn't even notice what was going on with Marik's neck bands. I guess I was too busy admiring his chest.
The "i just now realized" part at the end made me laugh like crazy XD
Lol I love that the fact he chose the one dragon ball super moment where the show tried something reasonably original as an example of anime protagonist cliches
Kaiba used a spell card that let both players use spells even during each other's turn
The Noah Arc was important for understanding Kaiba’s character. Seeing as the end of battle city was a huge part of his development I think having that understanding really sells it. Though 4kids didn’t exactly do a very good job with it anyway, but the Japanese version did.
It was way longer than it should have been, but it wasn’t entirely unnecessary.
TheEpic22 random question: Any idea where I can watch the subbed version?
@@kingusdingus3732 Try gogoanime. You'll find the entire series subbed. I recomend an adblocker though
Clock_Wolf94 crunchyroll has most of the subbed episodes
Should have been placed after marik is defeated at least, interrupting battle city pacing makes the arc drag on even further.
@@inconemay1441 absolutely! And it would still work given what happens during the second half of the Battle City finals. It would help us understand why Kaiba wanted to destroy the island.
Another point to add here is Marik constantly summons Ra from the Graveyard when in the Card game Ra can't be Special Summoned unless he is Tribute Summoned first. Marik never tribute summons Ra in the show
To be fair the God cards wouldn't be added to the TCG until 2010 and none of them would have even half the abilities they have in the anime (and anime Ra had like 20 different abilities).
