About the GX Scary Story thing: The level of the card determined how scary the story was supposed to be, with it getting scarier and scarier as the levels go higher
There was a duel in ZEXAL where the tomato guy basically made it so you have to eat a random vegetable in a container to attack. If you don't eat it you can't attack. However all of the vegetables were weird hybrids mixed with tomatoes.
The funniest part is that this is one of the ONLY times in Yugioh where a character recognizes the situation is bullshit and actually calls a judge over to try to deal with it.

There's an episode of Sevens where everyone is turning into zombies and in order to stop it Gakuto has to duel a guy dressing as (and using a deck themed around) Michael Jackson's Thriller, complete with his boss monster (a Rush Duel retrain of Cyber Stein) doing the dance. The twist of the episode is it's just an event where they "emulate" a zombie apocalypse.

There was a 5Ds duel that was also a game of memory. Yousei's entire deck was scattered on a table face-down. He had to randomly select a card and hope he could play it. His opponent had special contact lens that allowed him to see his cards even while face-down, giving him an unfair advantage.
I immediately thought of the Concentration Duel too. Only thing that ticked me off though is Clark's method of cheating - it's incredibly convoluted, complete bullshit, and absolutely _not_ how any of that works, even by YGO standards.

Atem literally rigged the situation to ensure that the guy with the gun would end up killing himself from combustion caused by the combination of alcohol, gun recoil, and the cig lit. Atem was so evil in that Yugioh era. He ends up saving Yugi's friends multiple times in that season, but does some super evil stuff to those who targeted Yugi's friends. You have more minor stuff of his acts, like secretly dealing a penalty towards I think a teacher, without her knowing it, that was trying to find excuses to get Yugi's friends in trouble, and the price she paid was having her makeup shattered, interrupting her efforts. To more major acts of evils of straight up killing some characters in a Shadow game. Actually, out of all of Yugi's friends in the season 0 era of the manga, I think Anzu was the most common one among Yugi's friends who were the victims of the evil people Atem punished. Which makes sense, because before Yugi made more friends, Anzu was Yugi's only friend. Granted, I haven't read a huge portion of the manga, but I recall Anzu being the most common one getting targeted by evildoers that Atem punishes. Sorry, I talked too much didn't I?
buddy, that would be nuts!!!! actually me and my friends bought two korean's replica of starter DDM sets and then we keep crafting polymer clay replicas of the monsters so we can play with the full roster of different monsters from the physical game, with some GBA ones
To explain the plot of Go Rush: season 1 is about ending an intergalactic war, season 2 is about time loop shenanigans, and season 3 seems to be about resolving said time loop shenanigans.
An even more fun fact about Capsule Monsters is that despite not being released, it's on the studio's site and called "Yu-Gi-Oh! Alex". Makes one wonder if they had intended to dub it at some point and just didn't in the end.
I hype up the manga version of the DDM arc perhaps too often, but I legit think it’s cool that Yugi beats Duke at the game he invented without access to the puzzle. I also think it’s fascinating that the anime decided to split that arc into 3 different arcs with different characters.
My cousins owned the original dungeon dice monsters board game. I think we played with it once? The little cardboard tile sets, we bent to be vaguely dice shaped, so that we could unfold them like what happened in the show.
Remember when Duke used a card that turned the Duel Monsters Field into a weird D&D grid so the Machine King guy wouldn't instantly kill Joey's sister?
Go Rush is about how societal repression and denial of the self perpetuate cycles of isolation and lashing out against others. Every character aside from Yudias believes they are a fundamentally broken person unworthy of love, so they hyperfixate on the emotion/state of being they believe is closest to love that even someone such as they may achieve. For Nyandestar, this is the sensation of looking at someone with both sympathy and rage, for Manabu it is the sensation of having his intellect and his place within a clearly defined hierarchy validated, for Yuna it is being in a relationship of roleplay where she can experience partnership and express her desires for someone without ever being vulnerable, etc. It is also an outrageous comedy, with both excellent slapstick and a tar-black, cynical sense of humor that would make you think Larry David was hired as a consultant. Buy Rush Duels.
@@johannamegido8465 no overselling done. That's the show and I love it. The show has a lot of really engaging themes, and I love the character writing. I really do think that just about every character in Go Rush is defined by their quest for a phantom of an emotion they have deemed "close enough" to love, and I think that strong sense of motivation ties into much of the show's themes and satire, and it makes the comedy all the more hilarious. Episode 106, featuring Nyandestar VS Bluayre, is full of pitch-black comedy that makes me laugh at the absurd reality that this card game commercial for children is willing to go this dark and this explicit, and how this makes so much of the setting and the character relationships slide into place, as much as the jokes themselves do. Manabu trying to throw Nyandestar under the bus so the two of them can be sister-wives in a MILF harem is such a damning insight of his character and it fits perfectly with everything we already know about him.
I have a lot of dungeon dice figures. They were sold in boxes without you knowing whats inside. I honestly liked the concept of the game it was certainly more working out in real life than in the anime.
the thumbnail made me think mbt finally is gonna do something other than sit on the computer. who would have expected it was the world renowned twitter thread
"What is Go Rush even about?" Trying to stop an ancient intergalactic war between immortal aliens by teaching them card games only for them to learn they are all effectively robots made to fight each other forever and then they experience literal genocide. Go Rush probably has the record for most on-screen deaths in the franchise at 8.88 million in a single episode.
6:34 after literally developing "YuGiOh in VRChat" and seeing many people really love it despite the internet's weird tainted view of VRChat, this part didn't feel great /:
4:42 So that's just putting the duel puzzles from the World Championship games into the anime, anyone else get stuck on those after like 3 and resort to good old gameFAQs?
I remember struggling with Reverse of Arcadia's block puzzles. I miss when Konami made new Yugioh videogames. They haven't done it for a long time since Master Duel and Duel Links are being so successful. Which sucks, because I hate being slowed down on buying virtual packs without using real money. Last time they did that for the original Yugioh card game was Legacy of the Duelist, to my knowledge. Campaigns in not online only Yugioh games were usually better than that of Master Duel and Duel Links. While it's cool that the Solo mode of Master Duel covers archetype lore, it's not what I'm craving from a singleplayer campaign in a Yugioh game. I want to be able to buy a Yugioh game and not have to rely on an online server and not have to earn Freemium currency just to get the cards I need. I don't care if not every card is in it, I miss the days of non-free to play live service Yugioh games still being made and released
Say what you want but I so desperately want to see Half-Yugioh that Yugi and PaniK played where the monsters are PHYSICALLY there and you can crush them by their own weight. It was beautiful.
Dungeon Dice Monsters is a real thing. It didn't have a long run in North America, but there were figures and cards and dice that you could buy. It went on for several years in Japan.
Some of my favorites of 'alternate games' is the original action/entertainment duels from before the timeline split in Arc-V (which sounds even more stupid when I type it out). The idea of playing Yugioh BUT with the caveat that the players are involved as part of the sport without it being a demonic shadow game is interesting. Which leads me to another idea, this appears in MULTIPLE places, GX's dimension hopping sections comes to mind, I remember seeing it in Zexal when they were crossing to Sargaso, but the idea remains the same- The monsters are real, and there's several of them, so instead of playing yugioh against them, they just summon their big monsters and have them actually fight, no ATK points, no abilities, no summoning conditions, just summon the monster and whoever has the better design (Looks like they'd do better in an actual fight dropping all abilities) wins. I'd love to see this kind of idea expanded, make it so duels aren't turn based, you just summon guys and swing at them while trying to protect yourself with traps- but maybe it does a sort of action duel thing where in order to draw more cards you need to get to a place. I feel like this has some serious potential-
Which that second part is actually where I got a super cool idea for a Yugioh Fighting Game- where the monsters are just characters, like Utopia is just a heavy fighter with a sword to give him disjoint and reach. But over the 'duel' you can 'evolve' them, Utopia could turn into Utopia Ray, or Lightning, or any of the like, 2 dozen different things Utopia has become. Maybe Wynn could be one and the spirit gets stronger. Play Silent Swordsman and watch them go from level 3 to level 5 to level 7 through the fight, while the Dark Magician just stays the Dark Magician the whole time. I like this idea a lot really, and I'm not even a big Fighting Game guy!
0:07 what's the reference? 2:27 DSOD is its own continuity (manga continuity). If anything the anime continuity (DM - 5Ds) could be seen as a what if about "what if Kaiba was able to move on from never defeating Atem" Although it makes you wonder what did Yugi did in the original anime timeline. and if he did try to make his own game that could stand out even with duel monsters, he really failed and hard 4:02 ZEXAL is crazy 5:07 But GO RUSH is even crazier 6:56 I really need to watch GO RUSH.....
2:053:09 For a show revolving around card games the yugioh series has a surprising amount of the cast that are athletic and can fight. Yugi and Yusaku are probably the least athletic of the series.
The capsule monsters game on the ps2 is legitimately one of the best strategy games I've played. I dont play many strategy games, but I like it. I like the field and tile bonuses, I like the level up and ability system, I like fusion and evolving, everything. If you are reading this, PLEASE get the libra mod.
Nobody mentioned this, but I like the digital pet arc from the original series, it differs depending on anime to manga, but basically Yugi has this cute little version of him that evolves to kill the main antagonist thanks to data from Joey's pet.
Capsule Monster Chess was an interesting concept for a game in the manga it had to have been based on some semi-popular game in Japan at the time those chapters were written, but it's not as clear as with some other games from the earlier manga chapters
I'm looking to commission a one-shot, shounen manga about a small group of friends, set in a world that is kind of like the Yu-Gi-Oh! world, but instead of everyone's lives revolving around duel monsters, the people who inhabit this world are obsessed with money.
as someone who’s watched most of Go Rush, all I can can confirm about it is that it’s about space, and aliens, and also sometimes random stuff like the runaway tractor and rich girl who lives in a box because she’s shy It’s also somewhat connected to Sevens, but not by much, and i will not explain why for spoilers sake
Skyscraper 2 - Hero City. Special summon Icejade Kosmochlor. Special summon Finis Terrae, Tower of the Necroworld. Activate Mystic Box popping an opponent's monster and giving them Finis Terrae. Normal summon Jet Synchron. Activate Full-Force Strike, target Jet. Battle phase, Jet crashes into Tower.
Maaaaan I clicked on this so fast that I didn't even register the length. I thought you were finally getting around to playing Dungeon Dice Monsters. That game is woefully underrepresented in TH-cam videos. I'd kill to watch some videos of you and other Yugitubers playing it, even if it's on TTS.
I’m pretty sure TheJWittz did a video of a real life dungeon dice monsters board game. I remember playing dice master from wizkiz. It was fun, but they had a messed up rule about the yugioh edition. Normally you can use the common dice with your super rare card. So you only have to pull one copy of the super rare for your team in the game and have multiple dice for it. In the yugioh edition, they printed series numbers on the dice as a nod to the numbers on yugioh cards. So now you need to pull multiple copies of the super rare or you can only play with one die if you put the super rare on your team.
MBT: "What is Go Rush about?" Me: "Well currently, it's about our female lead becoming the Antagonist to destroy monster Reborn, because it's basically a card with magical powers attached to it. Including the ability to seal an opponent's memory after their opponent loses the Duel, which also only applies if Monster Reborn is used to revive their Deck's key card, like for example; Monster Reborn on Yuga's Sevens Road Magician."
I love how close this was to the actual arc 10 summary. Expect, Yuamu was looking for Monster Reborn to.. wait for it, become Otes by wrapping her memory with the card. The plan almost worked, if someone else beats her to becoming Otes.. and he is the next arc villain.
dude you CANNOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! show me yugioh fruity pebbles in 2024. my brain had to dig so deep to access that memory that i couldn't function for like a full minute
I always remember when a guy made Yusei play something like a concentration duel, where both played a turn only flipping all their cards thst were on the table facedown
No one mentioned the game show duel in GX??? Where a guy wants to show to Alexis how COOL he is by being a trivia game show host against Jaden. It's where the famous Gogiga Gagagigo tongue-twister clip comes from.
😂 3:07 This whole exchange, from calling tennis a fictional game to the poor explanation all the way to MBT saying he'll play it at the YCS, had me in histerics.
6:14 - forget her undefeated record, I'm bringing up the time Téa won a head-to-head DDR game against a grown man trying to beat her up whenever part of her insane hatedom starts dogging on her again.
I remember when the Dungeon Dice Monsters arc first aired. I knew just enough about anime from Dragonball Z to conclude that it was a filler arc. Then I read some of the manga and realized that nonsense was canon.
There’s a card game where they play with called dragons block. Each element has 5 dragons level 1-5 and all the elements counter each other. The person who loses get their soul sucked into a jar
4:58 I don’t understand why it was called Dawn of the Duel in the show when it was first called Millennium World for the manga. Like you said, they don’t even duel traditionally for almost the entire season.
I still think they should make a Yu-Gi-Oh MMORPG. Imagine a Single game with your avatar where you can design houses and make tournaments, play 5Ds Speed Duels, Dice Monsters, Deck Masters.
They actually played Dungeon Dice Monsters on Team APS! There are cool ideas in the game, but they had to set some house rules to make it flow a little better.
there is a japanese dub of capsule monsters called "yugioh ALEX" it wasnt even aired but it was made and is lost media (or that could be rumors like neos air, magi magi censor and prize support)
I actually played Dungeon Dice Monsters in real life, monster mini statues with stat cards, dice, heart counters, and different dice paths to put on the board to summon.
DDM has a sad ending specifically because it wasn't good for a while, but in its final iteration in the U.S. The rules were changed to turn the game into a fun back and forth with less RNG, allowing for multiple die rolls and another method of summoning higher levelled monsters. By the time all this happened, it was too late and DDM was already dead. Now the most accessible way to play the game is the GBA game which has a particularly archaic and boring version of the rules and likely fooled more than a few people into thinking DDM never got better. Capsule Monsters comes in 2 forms. 4kids tried to sell expensive Pokemon checkers, but Takahashi's version played in Season 0 put a lot more stock into the monsters who all hard their own special abilities and all around more things happened more quickly. Not saying the "new" version didn't have potential, but it's weird that there's a perfectly good version of Capsule Monsters already designed by the guy who made Yugioh, and they didn't use it. I'll just say it, Cross Duel. It was a crazy amalgamation of a dozen variants of Yugioh like labyrinth duels, speed duels, etc. One of the coolest things ever done with the brand, but it was a merciless gacha that didn't work on the hardware it was intended for so nobody cared.
3:15 Basically, Yugioh is still a shonen series, so the way I see it basically every major character has what I like to call 'Shonen Physiology', meaning that they are varying levels of superhuman. It's just that they usually settle all their diferences through card games and only occasionally use the more typical shonen method of beating the shit out of each other. Seriously, in the manga Joey is just like one or two steps removed from being a Jojo protag. Like at one point he just casually beats the everloving shit out of Bandit Keith with both hands in his pockets.
The thing about Zexal is the first half is mostly kinda mid slop occasionally interrupted by comically absurd slop, while the second half is kinda just peak
Funnily the first Yugioh game I bought for my Gameboy Advance was accidentally a Yugioh Dungeon Dice Monsters, I was so confused, cause I just wanted a regular Yugioh game, but it was pretty fun :D I also didnt know that part of the anime yet, so I had no idea what was going on at the start

it may not have yugioh on it but its close enough
I like to imagine that online card retailers are just rare hunters that did too well and just need some extra cash now they have a playset
The trapped in a video game arc is one of my top fave original Yu-Gi-Oh stuff I wanted a video game of it so bad
My cousins owned the original dungeon dice monsters board game. I think we played with it once? The little cardboard tile sets, we bent to be vaguely dice shaped, so that we could unfold them like what happened in the show.
Go rush is about aliens.
This isnt even a joke, its dumb and its great
Can't wait for the Dungeon Dice Monsters channel
even yugi, the protagonist, couldn't stand waiting for the banlist, therefore decided to create a knew game instead. I feel him
Remember when Duke used a card that turned the Duel Monsters Field into a weird D&D grid so the Machine King guy wouldn't instantly kill Joey's sister?
Go Rush is about how societal repression and denial of the self perpetuate cycles of isolation and lashing out against others. Every character aside from Yudias believes they are a fundamentally broken person unworthy of love, so they hyperfixate on the emotion/state of being they believe is closest to love that even someone such as they may achieve. For Nyandestar, this is the sensation of looking at someone with both sympathy and rage, for Manabu it is the sensation of having his intellect and his place within a clearly defined hierarchy validated, for Yuna it is being in a relationship of roleplay where she can experience partnership and express her desires for someone without ever being vulnerable, etc.
It is also an outrageous comedy, with both excellent slapstick and a tar-black, cynical sense of humor that would make you think Larry David was hired as a consultant. Buy Rush Duels.
you don't gotta oversell it
@@johannamegido8465more like undersell
@@johannamegido8465 no overselling done. That's the show and I love it. The show has a lot of really engaging themes, and I love the character writing. I really do think that just about every character in Go Rush is defined by their quest for a phantom of an emotion they have deemed "close enough" to love, and I think that strong sense of motivation ties into much of the show's themes and satire, and it makes the comedy all the more hilarious. Episode 106, featuring Nyandestar VS Bluayre, is full of pitch-black comedy that makes me laugh at the absurd reality that this card game commercial for children is willing to go this dark and this explicit, and how this makes so much of the setting and the character relationships slide into place, as much as the jokes themselves do. Manabu trying to throw Nyandestar under the bus so the two of them can be sister-wives in a MILF harem is such a damning insight of his character and it fits perfectly with everything we already know about him.
I have a lot of dungeon dice figures. They were sold in boxes without you knowing whats inside. I honestly liked the concept of the game it was certainly more working out in real life than in the anime.
the thumbnail made me think mbt finally is gonna do something other than sit on the computer. who would have expected it was the world renowned twitter thread
"What is Go Rush even about?"
Trying to stop an ancient intergalactic war between immortal aliens by teaching them card games only for them to learn they are all effectively robots made to fight each other forever and then they experience literal genocide.
Go Rush probably has the record for most on-screen deaths in the franchise at 8.88 million in a single episode.
Can't forget in Gx when Jaden dueled barker in a quiz off
8:03 XSTEVENS SERIES MENTIONED! Goated videos.
The fact that playing Duel Monsters was a Punishment Game, is so accurate, because I too feel punished when I play yugioh.
6:34 after literally developing "YuGiOh in VRChat" and seeing many people really love it despite the internet's weird tainted view of VRChat, this part didn't feel great /:
3:34 So this is why Konami ignores the international community.
Really wish we knew what all those alternate formats were in Sevens, before they sacrificed them as fodder against a mecha in lunar orbit.
Nobody brought up the Go Rush Summoning Chant Cosplay game.
1:50 they were pulling a “fist of the North Star”
4:42 So that's just putting the duel puzzles from the World Championship games into the anime, anyone else get stuck on those after like 3 and resort to good old gameFAQs?
I remember struggling with Reverse of Arcadia's block puzzles. I miss when Konami made new Yugioh videogames. They haven't done it for a long time since Master Duel and Duel Links are being so successful. Which sucks, because I hate being slowed down on buying virtual packs without using real money. Last time they did that for the original Yugioh card game was Legacy of the Duelist, to my knowledge. Campaigns in not online only Yugioh games were usually better than that of Master Duel and Duel Links. While it's cool that the Solo mode of Master Duel covers archetype lore, it's not what I'm craving from a singleplayer campaign in a Yugioh game. I want to be able to buy a Yugioh game and not have to rely on an online server and not have to earn Freemium currency just to get the cards I need. I don't care if not every card is in it, I miss the days of non-free to play live service Yugioh games still being made and released
To be fair, murdering your opponent does technically make you the winner
Say what you want but I so desperately want to see Half-Yugioh that Yugi and PaniK played where the monsters are PHYSICALLY there and you can crush them by their own weight. It was beautiful.
At the end of the day, even Yugioh knows how much nobody like playing Yugioh.
Literally only yugi played yugioh in his school until he introduced it to his friends
This is the lowest concentration of vitriol in any Twitter Thread.
Dungeon Dice Monsters is a real thing. It didn't have a long run in North America, but there were figures and cards and dice that you could buy. It went on for several years in Japan.
There was a duel puzzle in Vrains too, one of the most interesting episodes of the series.
Some of my favorites of 'alternate games' is the original action/entertainment duels from before the timeline split in Arc-V (which sounds even more stupid when I type it out). The idea of playing Yugioh BUT with the caveat that the players are involved as part of the sport without it being a demonic shadow game is interesting. Which leads me to another idea, this appears in MULTIPLE places, GX's dimension hopping sections comes to mind, I remember seeing it in Zexal when they were crossing to Sargaso, but the idea remains the same-
The monsters are real, and there's several of them, so instead of playing yugioh against them, they just summon their big monsters and have them actually fight, no ATK points, no abilities, no summoning conditions, just summon the monster and whoever has the better design (Looks like they'd do better in an actual fight dropping all abilities) wins. I'd love to see this kind of idea expanded, make it so duels aren't turn based, you just summon guys and swing at them while trying to protect yourself with traps- but maybe it does a sort of action duel thing where in order to draw more cards you need to get to a place. I feel like this has some serious potential-
Which that second part is actually where I got a super cool idea for a Yugioh Fighting Game- where the monsters are just characters, like Utopia is just a heavy fighter with a sword to give him disjoint and reach. But over the 'duel' you can 'evolve' them, Utopia could turn into Utopia Ray, or Lightning, or any of the like, 2 dozen different things Utopia has become. Maybe Wynn could be one and the spirit gets stronger. Play Silent Swordsman and watch them go from level 3 to level 5 to level 7 through the fight, while the Dark Magician just stays the Dark Magician the whole time. I like this idea a lot really, and I'm not even a big Fighting Game guy!
0:07 what's the reference?
2:27 DSOD is its own continuity (manga continuity). If anything the anime continuity (DM - 5Ds) could be seen as a what if about "what if Kaiba was able to move on from never defeating Atem"
Although it makes you wonder what did Yugi did in the original anime timeline. and if he did try to make his own game that could stand out even with duel monsters, he really failed and hard
4:02 ZEXAL is crazy 5:07 But GO RUSH is even crazier 6:56 I really need to watch GO RUSH.....
Sure it may have been filler, but I do love the segment from YGOTAS where we get “KNEEL BEFORE THE CHESS PRINCE!”
2:05 3:09
For a show revolving around card games the yugioh series has a surprising amount of the cast that are athletic and can fight. Yugi and Yusaku are probably the least athletic of the series.
Lazer maze was a toy from my childhood. Sold at the same places that sold traffic jam, and that block tower fall jawn.
It wasn't good, functionally.
The capsule monsters game on the ps2 is legitimately one of the best strategy games I've played. I dont play many strategy games, but I like it. I like the field and tile bonuses, I like the level up and ability system, I like fusion and evolving, everything. If you are reading this, PLEASE get the libra mod.
Nobody mentioned this, but I like the digital pet arc from the original series, it differs depending on anime to manga, but basically Yugi has this cute little version of him that evolves to kill the main antagonist thanks to data from Joey's pet.
In elementary school, a friend of mine build a labyrinth out of cardboard, and we played the labyrinth duel, it was so much fun
that time when MBT (you!) and Farfa got paired during the LCS, and instead of YGO decided the winner by playing Among Us
Capsule Monster Chess was an interesting concept for a game in the manga
it had to have been based on some semi-popular game in Japan at the time those chapters were written, but it's not as clear as with some other games from the earlier manga chapters
Shoutout to season 0 and the Bakura RPG game. It's peak and foreshadows Season 5
I'm looking to commission a one-shot, shounen manga about a small group of friends, set in a world that is kind of like the Yu-Gi-Oh! world, but instead of everyone's lives revolving around duel monsters, the people who inhabit this world are obsessed with money.
"What is Go Rush about"
Mostly, PTSD and acceptance of death. I am NOT joking.
as someone who’s watched most of Go Rush, all I can can confirm about it is that it’s about space, and aliens, and also sometimes random stuff like the runaway tractor and rich girl who lives in a box because she’s shy
It’s also somewhat connected to Sevens, but not by much, and i will not explain why for spoilers sake
Skyscraper 2 - Hero City. Special summon Icejade Kosmochlor. Special summon Finis Terrae, Tower of the Necroworld. Activate Mystic Box popping an opponent's monster and giving them Finis Terrae. Normal summon Jet Synchron. Activate Full-Force Strike, target Jet. Battle phase, Jet crashes into Tower.
where's the scene where yugi picks up gambling to afford rent after paying $1200 for a tier 1 deck
Only for weevil to throw his diabellstars off the boat
someone mix the yugioh juice with the wixoss juice and just forget to write the game into the story
i’m still upset about wixoss doing that :(
Maaaaan I clicked on this so fast that I didn't even register the length. I thought you were finally getting around to playing Dungeon Dice Monsters. That game is woefully underrepresented in TH-cam videos. I'd kill to watch some videos of you and other Yugitubers playing it, even if it's on TTS.
I’m pretty sure TheJWittz did a video of a real life dungeon dice monsters board game.
I remember playing dice master from wizkiz. It was fun, but they had a messed up rule about the yugioh edition. Normally you can use the common dice with your super rare card. So you only have to pull one copy of the super rare for your team in the game and have multiple dice for it. In the yugioh edition, they printed series numbers on the dice as a nod to the numbers on yugioh cards. So now you need to pull multiple copies of the super rare or you can only play with one die if you put the super rare on your team.
MBT: "What is Go Rush about?"
Me: "Well currently, it's about our female lead becoming the Antagonist to destroy monster Reborn, because it's basically a card with magical powers attached to it. Including the ability to seal an opponent's memory after their opponent loses the Duel, which also only applies if Monster Reborn is used to revive their Deck's key card, like for example; Monster Reborn on Yuga's Sevens Road Magician."
I love how close this was to the actual arc 10 summary.
Expect, Yuamu was looking for Monster Reborn to.. wait for it, become Otes by wrapping her memory with the card.
The plan almost worked, if someone else beats her to becoming Otes.. and he is the next arc villain.
@@crystalcolden9158 I mainly said this because I’m like… 12 episodes behind Go Rush atm lol
@@DespianGrimmPaldea that's understandable
How 5Ds' concentration duel wasn't mentioned baffels me
dude you CANNOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! show me yugioh fruity pebbles in 2024. my brain had to dig so deep to access that memory that i couldn't function for like a full minute
I always remember when a guy made Yusei play something like a concentration duel, where both played a turn only flipping all their cards thst were on the table facedown
"slice and dice" is the most accuary way to play dungeon dice monsters (is basically dungeon dice Cross slay the spire)
Remember that time in GX Jaden had to play Jeopardy and drink a real bowl of hologram water?
Never in my life do I ever imagine annoying orange summoning Naturia Beast against a random dinosaur. Wat
No one mentioned the game show duel in GX???
Where a guy wants to show to Alexis how COOL he is by being a trivia game show host against Jaden. It's where the famous Gogiga Gagagigo tongue-twister clip comes from.
MBT will absolutely not attack you at a YCS.
He will attack you in your sleep after finding out where you live.
I just realized Niwatori's eyes are open in the card art
My first exposure to the manga was the damned YO-YO GANG
😂 3:07 This whole exchange, from calling tennis a fictional game to the poor explanation all the way to MBT saying he'll play it at the YCS, had me in histerics.
6:14 - forget her undefeated record, I'm bringing up the time Téa won a head-to-head DDR game against a grown man trying to beat her up whenever part of her insane hatedom starts dogging on her again.
I remember when the Dungeon Dice Monsters arc first aired. I knew just enough about anime from Dragonball Z to conclude that it was a filler arc. Then I read some of the manga and realized that nonsense was canon.
There’s a card game where they play with called dragons block. Each element has 5 dragons level 1-5 and all the elements counter each other.
The person who loses get their soul sucked into a jar
4:58 I don’t understand why it was called Dawn of the Duel in the show when it was first called Millennium World for the manga. Like you said, they don’t even duel traditionally for almost the entire season.
I still think they should make a Yu-Gi-Oh MMORPG. Imagine a Single game with your avatar where you can design houses and make tournaments, play 5Ds Speed Duels, Dice Monsters, Deck Masters.
At comic cons & anime conventions, I teach people how to play Dungeon Dice Monsters
DDM shouldve become its own thing. game was so hype and even getting a full GBA game that never lead into anything else is a tragedy
They actually played Dungeon Dice Monsters on Team APS! There are cool ideas in the game, but they had to set some house rules to make it flow a little better.
The best one is clearly in the manga where Yugi and the gang just play dnd
there is a japanese dub of capsule monsters called "yugioh ALEX" it wasnt even aired but it was made and is lost media (or that could be rumors like neos air, magi magi censor and prize support)
Honestly, the Dice Masters game is damn fun. It's a deck building game of dice.
I actually played Dungeon Dice Monsters in real life, monster mini statues with stat cards, dice, heart counters, and different dice paths to put on the board to summon.
The arc that I loved the most in the Yu-Gi-Oh! original manga was the chibi-style D&D game. I honestly wished they had done more with that idea.
I've been so tempted to get like a bunch of blocks and build a maze to do the paradox duel with friends
DDM has a sad ending specifically because it wasn't good for a while, but in its final iteration in the U.S. The rules were changed to turn the game into a fun back and forth with less RNG, allowing for multiple die rolls and another method of summoning higher levelled monsters. By the time all this happened, it was too late and DDM was already dead. Now the most accessible way to play the game is the GBA game which has a particularly archaic and boring version of the rules and likely fooled more than a few people into thinking DDM never got better.
Capsule Monsters comes in 2 forms. 4kids tried to sell expensive Pokemon checkers, but Takahashi's version played in Season 0 put a lot more stock into the monsters who all hard their own special abilities and all around more things happened more quickly. Not saying the "new" version didn't have potential, but it's weird that there's a perfectly good version of Capsule Monsters already designed by the guy who made Yugioh, and they didn't use it.
I'll just say it, Cross Duel. It was a crazy amalgamation of a dozen variants of Yugioh like labyrinth duels, speed duels, etc. One of the coolest things ever done with the brand, but it was a merciless gacha that didn't work on the hardware it was intended for so nobody cared.
3:15 Basically, Yugioh is still a shonen series, so the way I see it basically every major character has what I like to call 'Shonen Physiology', meaning that they are varying levels of superhuman. It's just that they usually settle all their diferences through card games and only occasionally use the more typical shonen method of beating the shit out of each other.
Seriously, in the manga Joey is just like one or two steps removed from being a Jojo protag. Like at one point he just casually beats the everloving shit out of Bandit Keith with both hands in his pockets.
If they made an anime about modern decks, it would take longer than DBZ to get to any kind of interaction.
Nothing better than tea and Johnny steps playing ddr
The thing about Zexal is the first half is mostly kinda mid slop occasionally interrupted by comically absurd slop, while the second half is kinda just peak
After 2 years of twitter threads I have finally made it to a video I can die happy
4:10 Robin did indeed summon his mom. 😂
Funnily the first Yugioh game I bought for my Gameboy Advance was accidentally a Yugioh Dungeon Dice Monsters, I was so confused, cause I just wanted a regular Yugioh game, but it was pretty fun :D I also didnt know that part of the anime yet, so I had no idea what was going on at the start
