Rest In Peace to Kazuki Takahashi, The Creator of Yugioh. A phenomenal show that made a lot of childhoods & adulthoods Hype. Thanks for your awesome series & You will be greatly missed
Yeah even though the made one piece into a watered down piece of shit, they still gives some good shows. Kinda wish the just dub the final season for the spin offs show.
To say Yu-Gi-Oh was a huge part of the 2000’s cultural zeitgeist would be a massive understatement; I can still vividly remember those days when the anime & TCG were truly everywhere: our schoolyards, our retail stores, our living rooms… this series has had a constant presence throughout my life and I’m glad I got to be part of the generation that grew up with & experienced Yu-Gi-Oh’s rise to cultural prominence in the early 2000’s firsthand This series will continue to live in my heart forever; thanks for everything, Kazuki Takahashi, Rest In Peace ✌️✊🙏
Yu-Gi-Oh was lucky to came out at a time when online gaming wasn't that popular yet with the younger generations. Sure, you had games like Halo: Combat Evolved, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai and Maplestory. But not everyone could afford a gaming console or a good enough PC at that time. Us kids all came out to the park in the evenings and dueled. Part of me wished gaming didn't become this popular so we could go back to the good ol' days.
@@JackIsNotInTheBox I had to get the shitty McDonald's bayblades because my parents couldn't get me real one. Despite always losing it was fun playing Bayblades
When you hear that “ITS TIME TO D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D DUEL!”, it awakens something in you! Thank you Kazuki Takahashi for making so many great memories for us. Rest in peace 🙏
Nobody can lie. 4Kids is one of the worst censoring companies in anime... but... when it comes to musical scores, VA talents, and atmosphere... they nailed it. 😭💙
@@Drums_of_Liberation Not to say that I don't prefer Funimation's uncut version, but I actually don't mind the 4kids version of One Piece, aside from Sanji's voice. With how cartoony the show's style is, not to mention how ridiculous the characters and scenarios can be, I feel as though some of the uncut violence and language is actually unbefitting of the show's overall atmosphere.
I hope they gave a raise to whoever realized that adding an Egyptian flute would both ground the opening in the culture Duel Monsters originated from in-universe and make it stand out from all the other theme songs.
When it comes to atmosphere I disagree, the Japanese version feels very different, the show was supposed to be a show for teenagers and 4kids turned it into a kids show, also I prefer the Japanese soundtrack but the 4kids soundtrack gets a pass.
Same, and I can't tell why. Every time I hear it its like I get some kind of a vague ptsd flashback to something scary, but I can't figure out what exactly xD
+ΓΙΑΝΝΗΣ ΜΗΤΡΑΙΝΑΣ (GM) Kids WB Had All Anime Shows, Like In The Late 90's, And Now The Early/Late 2000's! - Pokemon(Seasons 1-8(4Kids))! - Cardcaptors! - Sailor Moon! - Dragonball Z! - Astro Boy(2003)! - Megaman NT:Axcess Warrior! - Viewtiful Joe! - Spider Riders! - Transformers:Cybertron! - And of course, Yu-Gi-Oh(2001)!
Childhood memories, although I don’t watch it anymore, I still remember the time I would collect Yu-Gi-Oh cards with my cousin to see who had the most collected whether if the cards were real or fake. Rest well Takahashi-San, I had a good childhood.
@@alanchamberlain9902 I remember when Naruto was airing on Cartoon Network! That was the shit and what got me introduced to anime as a whole. But yes kids these days will never know the magic of the early 2000s that was back when corporations and businesses wanted to make stuff for their fans and they wanted to push the industry forward, unlike today where all they care about is money and they create insipid mediocrity on mass!
Born exactly in 2000... Most people would call me a millennial for that but i ended up having the childhood of a 90s kid a lot more, and yugioh was that one anime I wouldn't be able to understand as a kid yet I still loved watching. It'd easily hook me in. Sadly I never got into collecting cards but cousins of mine did, though most of their cards are from the goat era
+Karl Medas Their rivalry compared to others still seems heated. Jaden/Chazz - became friends and never had a serious match after the School Duel. Yusei/Jack - Became friends (again). Their rivalry is essentially the same as Yugi & Kaiba's the have amazing if not better teamwork than Yugi & Kaiba whenever they team up. As a whole they had better matches than Yugi & Kaiba. This is as close to a Yugi-Kaiba rivalry we've had from the spin offs. Yuma/Shark or Yuma/Kaito - became friends aswell. Yuma and Shark at first seemed like rivals but became best friends and their battles toward the end of the series were more tragic battles than a rivalry match. Yuma claims Kaito is more of his rival, while Shark is his best friend. Yuya/Reiji or Yuya/Sawatari - Reiji is supposed to be Yuya's main rival but he doesn't feel like it. Either way they aren't friends and Yuya seems to hate him and Reiji couldn't care less about what Yuya thinks of him. Yuya & Sawatari became friends after their 2nd duel and have a relationship/rivalry akin to Chazz & Jaden. Meanwhile Yugi and Kaiba - Respect is mutual but the friendship is one sided.
In my opinion, this is my tier list of the best Yu-Gi-Oh! Rivals (from original to Arc V, i haven’t seen Vrains yet so I still don’t have an opinion about it... yet) 1. Seto kaiba 2. Kaito tenjo 3. Jack atlas 4. Chazz 5.Reiji akaba
Came here to say, After learning the news, Wanna give tribute and respect to the man him self Kazuki Takahashi No words can describe how much this man has changed my life and family and honestly without him I would be a big fan of tcg or the competitive scene of anything for the matter. Please rest peacefully Mr Takahashi and thank you for the legacy you left behind not only for me but various Yu-Gi-Oh fans across the world with your work that touched our hearts.
Rachel Lieber Even Kids WB Had All Anime Shows, Such as: - Pokemon(Seasons 1-8)(4Kids) - Cardcaptors - Astro Boy(2003) - Megaman:NT Warrior - Viewtiful Joe - Spider Riders - Magi-Nation - And of course, Yu-Gi-Oh(2001)
+Aram Allo deeper than most incomprehensible trap music nowadays that's more akin to high pitched whining as opposed to audible lyrics. At least this song has 6 audible words in it xD
@@rowdyldn yup on wb13 or wb20 ima miss the old school duels lol i still got all the starter decks from the first season unopened except for the 1sr yugi deck lol
I come here to listen to this masterpiece again after the tragic death of Kazuki Takahashi. RIP Legend you made my childhood, you will remain in our hearts forever and your soul is now in each of our Yu Gi OH cards
Tavake Toki I mean, I really enjoyed GX despite missing the original cast and theme song hard. After that though, I lost complete interest. Battle City is still king!
@@tavaketoki1134 when they implement effects and Attacking directly, it got better. Plus marik and Pegasus are like underrated villans as well. Also, imo, Yu-gi-oh is one of those rare series where the dub was actually a better sub. More enjoyable and OPs were fire and hype as af.
For the past 12-13 years, while growing from an elementary schooler to an almost-working adult, in the schoolyard as a kid with my friends, but also in the solitary comfort of my home, in the laid back times, but also in times of anxiety, this game has always been there as something I can fall back to. Rest in peace Kazuki Takahashi, thank you for this invaluable gift. May your legacy live on.
"LONG AGO WHEN THE PYRAMIDS WERE STILL YOUNG..." I REMEMBER WAITING UNTIL 9 O' CLOCK AT NIGHT IN MY BED EVERY NIGHT, AND THEN HEARING THESE WORDS. CUZ DUMBASS CARTOON NETWORK ONLY AIRED YU-GI-OH! AT NIGHT. WHEN EVERYONE WAS SLEEPING. F**CKING GENIUS.
Konami didn't really have a set rule guideline for the card game until about Battle City, so that's why card like Dark Magician and Summoned Skull didn't require tributes to be Summoned during Duelist Kingdom. Still doesn't explain why characters up until about ZEXAL Normal Summoned monsters in Defense Mode, though...
R.I.P to the true King of Games. We will forever remember and honor you and your work. Thanks for making my childhood, teenage years, and adulthood full of many great friends that laught and even raged while playing the game. Overall we all have an unforgettable amount of fun. Forever in our memeries, Thank you Kazuki Takahashi
Before the show got shitty This was it. I mean seriously, why even continue the series if the character it's named after isn't even around anymore? FFS
Honestly, after Synchro Summon, which made sense, I gave up on Yu-Gi-Oh in general as it seemed like the series just went shit, games and all. Fusions were calm, Synchro's were alright, but that Xyz and Pendulum bullshit just made me give up. The entire series went from fun to overly complicated just like that.
+4R IMO Xyz was gamebreaking at first but then they took good precautions with the banlists and made them a bit more fair. You still needed to get two cards with the same level out and for the most part you would either run Xyz OR Synchros. However I think Pendulums ruined the game 100%. You could beat an Xyz deck without Xyz usage but pendulums may as well have their own game mode
+ParadoxycOnline Xyz was alright to say the least. Balanced still doesn't mean overly complicated. I'm one of those classic Yu-gi-oh guys, having a card collection, playing the old games, but some things just made me give up. Everyone had the advantage of Xyz cards and all of that whilst I just get overexcited from summoning Buster Blade (Childhood card lolz). But I think we can both agree that Pendulum just killed the game and almost the franchise. There's just no point anymore, whoever starts first with a Pendulum deck wins.
In my country there was an episode every day at 16 PM without Saturday and Sunday. Back in the day I hated Saturday and Sunday! :D The other option was 6 AM, however, I hardly ever watched them that early.
+Malcolm Mitchell Maybe, This Show Was Originally Aired On Kids WB, Since 2001! Like Others: - The Zeta Project! - X-Men Evoltuion! - Baby Looney Tunes! - Cubix:Robots for Everyone! - The Mummy:The Animated Series!
Brian O'Donnell I know Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters came out in 2001. There is so much stress on my life right now, I hate my adult life. I like my very early childhood life BETTER! I wish time travel was reversible like RIGHT NOW to see those day's again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK GROWING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
0:42 you can very easily tell which one is which simply by the way they stand. Yugi being the shy one, stands tight. Meanwhile the Pharaoh appearing confident and keeping his cool. They’re opposite sides of the same soul. Sharing similarities and having their differences. However they’re incomplete without each other.
July 6th, 2022 Tragedy occurred, we lost a man by the name of "Kazuki Takahashi", the legend that created all of Yugioh, the cards, the characters, the world and mostly... being part of our childhood Let's all respect legend and use his lessons that he taught as an important influence. Remember, always believe in the heart of the cards Rest in Peace
@@herostorm8939 i finally finished all 5 seasons i was like damn why couldnt go on for ten seasons but the duel between yugi and atem was one hell of a way to end the season.wish mai was there to see it
I will never forget what this series brought my childhood. The memes, the memories and the card game itself - irreplaceable. Rest in peace, Takahashi-sensei.
For real. I used to want to blast this song in a car with all the windows open on a free way head banging. Just the craziest shit possible with music I wanted to do lol.
Dan Green was incredible here. This narration still sends goosebumps up my arms, and this video is stunningly well-cut. The visuals tell you the entire emotional imperative of the first season and instantly makes you understand who the heroes are and what they're fighting for. Even the cheesiness of "D-d-d-d-d-duel!" is iconic at this point. Incredible; some of 4kids' best work, no doubt.
+Brian O'Donnell That's how I even got hooked on this stuff as a kid. It's on free cable TV.. Kids WB on the old school Saturday morning cartoons and exc.
I watched this as a kid every saturday until kaiba's tournament ended. I always thought it said "Yamu" and it was some Egyptian thing. I literally just realized it says "your move" too. My mind was blown.
they really struck gold with this...while other anime tried to have a catchy song with "inspiring" lyrics....this one went the oposite....and relied on an ambient,lyricless orchestra.... it let its tone speak for itself...where other 90s anime used thier intro to sell thier themes...yugioh used its themes to sell its intro.
sak lee it wasn’t 4Kids messed up, the TV laws in US messed up the anime and forced 4Kids to edit it or else they won’t air it at all. I mean nobody got the animes rights except Funimation got DBZ and One Piece and Viz Media got Sailor Moon. Funimation used to have Yu Gi Oh rights, but now they lost the rights since years ago.
Sideswift501 why the cry face? lol and yeah, that did dawn on me as an adult, but it's still a better intro (scenes match music; music isn't specifically "intro music" like a lot of american or dubbed cartoons)
Yeah, this really remember this. People like me who grew up during the early and mid-2000s, our first exposure to anime was this. I know I probably watched Pokemon before this, but I was too young to remember it, I actually remember watching this when it came on TV. I dunno, I know it's probably nostalgia talking, but I love this show. It's corny as hell, and very hammy at times, but that's what makes it more enjoyable. And plus this whole sub-genre of anime's centered around a game, like Pokemon or Bakugan, is kinda interesting. Plus it's something that easily bleeds into reality, it really got you into buying the cards and having an awesome deck, but like most kids we probably didn't know how to play it or didn't have the attention span to do so. But i'm sure as adults, some people play this game religiously, but i'm sure it overshadowed by more popular card games.
@@brianodonnell9571 Except I'm pretty sure Pokemon started on UPN, not Kids WB, granted that was very short-lived. Alas, I can't find a citation online, but that's what I recall because it's what I remember most about UPN from that time.
+lolmaster8683 /aka Izado not me I was like FUCK THE RULES just look through my cards* Grab. 3 blue eyes put it down and a slither and raw and put 5 face down cards with an field card shining palace for my next card then this is what I was like me: WUTCHU GONNA DO IM GONNA FUCK YOU UP. My other self (I'm alone 😭😭😭) puts black hole everything is gone in one turn and he putted down 2 face downs and a xyz monster Me:Fuck me
RIP Takahashi Kazuki. You made Saturday mornings at 4Kids vintage. This is the anime that started my “collect them all” phase next to Pokemon. No matter what, let the games begin No matter what, may the best man win. No matter what, we’re in this together. No matter what we’ll be friends forever. NO MATTER WHAT
Feli Kun So, because I found out this anime existed now, this makes me dumb? How is it my fault that in my country, Yu-gi-oh! wasn't shown on TV? You shouldn't judge so quickly.
This wasn't in your recommended, you looked it up.
I feel like this comment is calling me out
It probably is in my recommended. All of them about is Yu-Gi-Oh!
God damn right.

While many hate the 4Kids dub, we can all agree on one thing:
This opening, kicks ASS!
Agreed.
definitely. i love anime openings
Yeah even though the made one piece into a watered down piece of shit, they still gives some good shows. Kinda wish the just dub the final season for the spin offs show.

Please rest peacefully Mr Takahashi and thank you for the legacy you left behind not only for me but various Yu-Gi-Oh fans across the world with your work that touched our hearts.
Amen
Gonna make a 22 year old cry lol
4Kidz had one purpose: to introduce us to anime as younglings.
They also have some hilarious moments
And by god they achieved it
@@emblemblade9245 yeah I guess, but some of their censorships were straight up unnecessary
Yu-Gi-Oh's 4Kidz dub is so hilariously goofy that it's actually way better than the original, which is genuinely pretty bad.

+Boggy Bunny Do You Know Yu-Gi-Oh Was On Kids WB, Since It Was Aired In The Year 2001?!
Sounds like a plot of a creepypasta
Rachel Lieber Even Kids WB Had All Anime Shows, Such as:
- Pokemon(Seasons 1-8)(4Kids)
- Cardcaptors
- Astro Boy(2003)
- Megaman:NT Warrior
- Viewtiful Joe
- Spider Riders
- Magi-Nation
- And of course, Yu-Gi-Oh(2001)
These lyrics are just so deep. 👍🏽🔥
your turn . it's time for d d d d d d duel ....... yeah so deep
+Aram Allo IT'S YOUR MOVE YOU FOOL
+Aram Allo deeper than most incomprehensible trap music nowadays that's more akin to high pitched whining as opposed to audible lyrics. At least this song has 6 audible words in it xD
they're D D D D D. D D D DD D D Deep
Try watching the Japanese version of the theme song
R.I.P. Kazuki Takahashi(1961-2022)
I'm honestly sad that my future kids will never know the joy of turning on the TV on a Saturday morning an seeing this theme song pop up.
Its good play it on metflix or buy the first 5 seasons then duel they asses lol see if you still got it.
@@tavaketoki1134 lmao
I miss waking up early aswell to watch it
@@rowdyldn yup on wb13 or wb20 ima miss the old school duels lol i still got all the starter decks from the first season unopened except for the 1sr yugi deck lol

I come here to listen to this masterpiece again after the tragic death of Kazuki Takahashi. RIP Legend you made my childhood, you will remain in our hearts forever and your soul is now in each of our Yu Gi OH cards
First season was the best one:
Story: tournament of card gaming
Plot: Final boss is a cheater
Plot Twist: Hero is a bigger cheater.
I attack... the moon!
Nothing tops the original 5 seasons im glad it came out in my generation lol unlike these sorry ass cartoons five nights of freddy
Tavake Toki I mean, I really enjoyed GX despite missing the original cast and theme song hard. After that though, I lost complete interest.
Battle City is still king!
@@marianopena7872 yup battle city really put yugioh on the map lol still got my yugioh cards tho!
@@tavaketoki1134 when they implement effects and Attacking directly, it got better. Plus marik and Pegasus are like underrated villans as well. Also, imo, Yu-gi-oh is one of those rare series where the dub was actually a better sub. More enjoyable and OPs were fire and hype as af.
I was always more excited for yugioh than pokemon as a child, good times...
+krlis dd ya he is
+free syria talking to the one who has videos
Used To Be Aired In 2001, Right On Kids WB!
+Crooked cat Still have my old spellcaster deck and everything :') Good times
Even 4Kids' Shows, The 8 Seasons of Pokemon And Cubix Were On Kids WB, Too!
For the past 12-13 years, while growing from an elementary schooler to an almost-working adult, in the schoolyard as a kid with my friends, but also in the solitary comfort of my home, in the laid back times, but also in times of anxiety, this game has always been there as something I can fall back to.
Rest in peace Kazuki Takahashi, thank you for this invaluable gift. May your legacy live on.
"LONG AGO WHEN THE PYRAMIDS WERE STILL YOUNG..."
I REMEMBER WAITING UNTIL 9 O' CLOCK AT NIGHT IN MY BED EVERY NIGHT, AND THEN HEARING THESE WORDS.
CUZ DUMBASS CARTOON NETWORK ONLY AIRED YU-GI-OH! AT NIGHT. WHEN EVERYONE WAS SLEEPING.
F**CKING GENIUS.
90s and early 2000s was the best years to be a kid 😎🤙
Yes they were
I was there ahahahahaha i took every drop of that vibe
I'm glad I grew up during those times, those were the days man fr
Hell yes. Man, where do the years go?😭😭
@@obbymillion So happy. And miss it😭😭
How Yami Yugi summons all those monsters from a single card I will never understand.
***** It's simple really. He has decided to screw the rules, since he has spiky hair.
Konami didn't really have a set rule guideline for the card game until about Battle City, so that's why card like Dark Magician and Summoned Skull didn't require tributes to be Summoned during Duelist Kingdom.
Still doesn't explain why characters up until about ZEXAL Normal Summoned monsters in Defense Mode, though...
GangstaLuigi613 Pricless!
***** Soul charge! lol he lost thousands of LP
***** He's the motherflippin' King of Games
R.I.P to the true King of Games. We will forever remember and honor you and your work. Thanks for making my childhood, teenage years, and adulthood full of many great friends that laught and even raged while playing the game. Overall we all have an unforgettable amount of fun. Forever in our memeries, Thank you Kazuki Takahashi
Before fusion
Before syncro summon
Before xyz summon
Before pendulum summoning
This was it
Before the show got shitty
This was it. I mean seriously, why even continue the series if the character it's named after isn't even around anymore? FFS
+Narutard Z AMV's Right? If not Yugi without little Yugi around.
Honestly, after Synchro Summon, which made sense, I gave up on Yu-Gi-Oh in general as it seemed like the series just went shit, games and all. Fusions were calm, Synchro's were alright, but that Xyz and Pendulum bullshit just made me give up. The entire series went from fun to overly complicated just like that.
+4R IMO Xyz was gamebreaking at first but then they took good precautions with the banlists and made them a bit more fair. You still needed to get two cards with the same level out and for the most part you would either run Xyz OR Synchros. However I think Pendulums ruined the game 100%. You could beat an Xyz deck without Xyz usage but pendulums may as well have their own game mode
+ParadoxycOnline Xyz was alright to say the least. Balanced still doesn't mean overly complicated. I'm one of those classic Yu-gi-oh guys, having a card collection, playing the old games, but some things just made me give up. Everyone had the advantage of Xyz cards and all of that whilst I just get overexcited from summoning Buster Blade (Childhood card lolz). But I think we can both agree that Pendulum just killed the game and almost the franchise. There's just no point anymore, whoever starts first with a Pendulum deck wins.
When you are old enough to finally understand the cartoon into rather than just watch it. Remember watching this like every Saturday morning
David All Anime Shows Were Aired On Kids WB, Since 1999-2007!
Back when i was younger i watched a lot of bakugan ,dragon ball , and yugioh
Right .watching as a kid and a kid is totally different. Almost like watching to different show's.
In my country there was an episode every day at 16 PM without Saturday and Sunday. Back in the day I hated Saturday and Sunday! :D
The other option was 6 AM, however, I hardly ever watched them that early.
*anime
If you haven't seen this, you don't have a childhood lol
I was about 9
I was 10
My childhood was gx
@@willwh9228 GX? Disgusting
everyone's childhood was different. the 2000's had so much shit in it
RIP Kazuki Takahashi, you will live on forever in the real world impact that you made with Yu-Gi-Oh!
1:25, endless sparkly eyes, then theres kaiba...
I always noticed that!
I laughed way too hard at this 😂
best part. i love it. it works perfectly for kaiba.
its just like: all these stupid losers pretending to be important and then theres the awsome kaiba too cool to have his eyes sparkle.
I just noticed that, he doesn't give a fuck
man this opening still gives me the chills!
This makes the openings to GX and 5Ds look like recycled cafeteria slop
+Gaby “Lexicona1996” George and this is coming from a person who grew up with both series
hahahha i see
i myself didn't have the chance to watch either GX or 5Ds, i grew up watching this one.
And i'd still this opening still holds today :')
Especially from 1:24 onwards
after watching ygotas i just cant take pegasus seriously anymore
_”Excuse me, sir. Do you know what time it is?”_
Me: 1:20
Nah it's Adventure time

0:42 you can very easily tell which one is which simply by the way they stand. Yugi being the shy one, stands tight. Meanwhile the Pharaoh appearing confident and keeping his cool. They’re opposite sides of the same soul. Sharing similarities and having their differences. However they’re incomplete without each other.
Well that's the point of their personality in the show
Lol @ you trying to be deep. You're just pointing out the obvious.

July 6th, 2022
Tragedy occurred, we lost a man by the name of "Kazuki Takahashi", the legend that created all of Yugioh, the cards, the characters, the world and mostly... being part of our childhood
Let's all respect legend and use his lessons that he taught as an important influence. Remember, always believe in the heart of the cards
Rest in Peace
Lets face it, this is THE best Yugioh opening ever.
Correction baka, the 5th Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters Anime Opening is the top best one, the 4th 3rd the second then the 1st Opening
The german version slaps hard
Check out the 5D's openings.

Lol im sad they dnt plat the old cartoons or anime on mainstream t.v its better than five nights of freddy
That final episode hurt me every time
@@herostorm8939 i finally finished all 5 seasons i was like damn why couldnt go on for ten seasons but the duel between yugi and atem was one hell of a way to end the season.wish mai was there to see it
I will never forget what this series brought my childhood. The memes, the memories and the card game itself - irreplaceable. Rest in peace, Takahashi-sensei.
ah damn, this is sooo cheesy but it used to be the shit! i still love it

Try listening to the french version tje du-du-du-du-duel part has an effect over it and i like it more but i'd like an external opinion
Rest in peace Kazuki,for making our childhood feel special with this.

Colleywoodstudios All Anime Shows Were Originally Aired On All Saturday Mornings, Such as Kids WB, Fox Kids, Etc!
Colleywoodstudios I would always watch it on Vortex, along with DBZ Kai
Dan Green was incredible here. This narration still sends goosebumps up my arms, and this video is stunningly well-cut. The visuals tell you the entire emotional imperative of the first season and instantly makes you understand who the heroes are and what they're fighting for. Even the cheesiness of "D-d-d-d-d-duel!" is iconic at this point. Incredible; some of 4kids' best work, no doubt.
z1pper intheback Just realized that IS Dan Green narrating and I'm pretty mindblown.

not gonna lie, this theme hits differently after hearing the news. i've legit got tears in my eyes. rest in peace king.
The bass in this opening never ceases to give me the feeling of life
Dan Green yes thank you.
The man with the voice of kings.
and porn
+Mr. Popo porn? he dubbed hentai ?
+Florin Herlea yes he did indeed, I've heard it (don't ask how) and it's mentally disturbing...
marcos49083 i imagine him saying IT TIME TO FU FU FU FU FUUUUUCK
+Florin Herlea "NOW CLUCK LIKE A CHICKEN" is more accurate
wow i just figured out that he's saying "your move"
"Face palm"
For the longest time I thought he was saying "Yamu" or something, as a kid I was like "IS THIS AN EGYPT THING? DID I LEARN AN EGYPT WORD?"
dude me too
oh wow I thought he was saying yonbu
I watched this as a kid every saturday until kaiba's tournament ended. I always thought it said "Yamu" and it was some Egyptian thing. I literally just realized it says "your move" too. My mind was blown.
they really struck gold with this...while other anime tried to have a catchy song with "inspiring" lyrics....this one went the oposite....and relied on an ambient,lyricless orchestra....
it let its tone speak for itself...where other 90s anime used thier intro to sell thier themes...yugioh used its themes to sell its intro.
138 people don't believe in the heart of the cards
who would? stupid 4kids messing with anime.
sak lee it wasn’t 4Kids messed up, the TV laws in US messed up the anime and forced 4Kids to edit it or else they won’t air it at all. I mean nobody got the animes rights except Funimation got DBZ and One Piece and Viz Media got Sailor Moon. Funimation used to have Yu Gi Oh rights, but now they lost the rights since years ago.
1:19 little did we know this was one of the most legendary moments in history
0:51 it's amazing that when they say the last 'Your Move" Yugi opens his eyes, they synced it perfectly!
R.I.P. Kazuki Takahashi. You are absolutely the reason why I became an anime fan… & I FRIGGIN’ LOVE YOU FOR ALL OF IT!!!🥺😭😭😭😢
1:25 this last part made me shed a tear man.

+soridosuneku kids card game;-;
Sideswift501
why the cry face? lol and yeah, that did dawn on me as an adult, but it's still a better intro (scenes match music; music isn't specifically "intro music" like a lot of american or dubbed cartoons)
Yeah, this really remember this. People like me who grew up during the early and mid-2000s, our first exposure to anime was this. I know I probably watched Pokemon before this, but I was too young to remember it, I actually remember watching this when it came on TV. I dunno, I know it's probably nostalgia talking, but I love this show. It's corny as hell, and very hammy at times, but that's what makes it more enjoyable. And plus this whole sub-genre of anime's centered around a game, like Pokemon or Bakugan, is kinda interesting. Plus it's something that easily bleeds into reality, it really got you into buying the cards and having an awesome deck, but like most kids we probably didn't know how to play it or didn't have the attention span to do so. But i'm sure as adults, some people play this game religiously, but i'm sure it overshadowed by more popular card games.
Eh, Canadian Gamer I Was Only A Saturday Morning Expert, Even Pokemon & Yu-Gi-Oh Were Originally Aired On Kids WB, Since 1999-2001!
Born 2002 still managed to be born watching these shows ,which im glad i did because they're awesome asf
Boi I'm born around September 24, 1998 and I'm turning 20 this year. I always love Yu Gi Oh
Same. I was never into Pokemon but Bakugan, and especially Yu-Gi-Oh, were just so awesome to watch back then.
@@brianodonnell9571 Except I'm pretty sure Pokemon started on UPN, not Kids WB, granted that was very short-lived. Alas, I can't find a citation online, but that's what I recall because it's what I remember most about UPN from that time.
Rip to a legend for creating such a great series. May he truly be with the heart of the cards.
Man, this was my childhood. Good show, good storyline, and good card designs!
Don't forget the awesome moments, like when the Egyptian Gods were summoned. That part always gave me goosebumps.
The nostalgia brought tears to my eyes! 😭
Who else played Yugioh irl and actually believed in the heart of the cards?
Everyone. *duh*
+lolmaster8683 /aka Izado not me I was like FUCK THE RULES just look through my cards* Grab. 3 blue eyes put it down and a slither and raw and put 5 face down cards with an field card shining palace for my next card then this is what I was like me: WUTCHU GONNA DO IM GONNA FUCK YOU UP. My other self (I'm alone 😭😭😭) puts black hole everything is gone in one turn and he putted down 2 face downs and a xyz monster Me:Fuck me
Lol i did!!!
Lol I would say "heart of the cards guide me" like Yugi.
The heart of the cards made me lose :(
