I can see someone who worked on this localization team composing this bouncy, vaguely Egyption, goofy, mischievous theme song for Marik and thinking it fit his character so well... only to have it really mess up dramatic scenes like this.
You know, Marik and Bakura (evil) are both not bad in terms of actors. I was expecting something far worse...then it came in the form of Yugi's grandfather, as well as Ryo Bakura.
at least they are following in the footsteps of the Japanese dub,except they got it a little mixed up. Isn't Bakura suppose to have the girl voice instead of Malik?
I don't think Marik hit puberity yet XD we all know now what he sounded like as a kid. Meanwhile, Bakura sounds like a southern person while Yugi's grandpa sounds like he truly is old. In the Japanese one, at least he isn't like that.
Marik's voice is pretty good IMO, but horribly miscast, I like Dark Bakura's voice a bit, but regular Bakura's is worse than a kick in the balls. As for Grandpa... There's a special place in hell just for that son of a bitch!
Marik's voice actress in miscast in this role, but her performance actually isn't so bad. Chuck Powers as Bakura and Grandpa, though....AWFUL. GOD. AWFUL.
Yami Bakura sounds like a failed Shadow The Hedgehog voice actor.
Anyone else notice how Bakura's accent turned country when he was pretending to be Ryou? Grandpa sounds like that pitchfork from Conker's Bad Fur Day.
Why the hell does Bakura sound like Herbert from Family Guy?
WiiMan25 I never thought of that XD
i strangely like this dub... for some reason i can't explain... it's beyond me.
+MrAwesome the troll 2 of yugioh dubs
+MrAwesome yea cuz its not made by 4kids

CALLÁTE
The soundtrack sounds like something out of Crash Bandicoot...
Richet Manoya You do realize that is the original Japanese soundtrack for the Yu-Gi-Oh! original series?
Signerdragon123 True. Though I was only pointing out the similarities in the instrumentals. :T
Why does Grampa sound like a prospector from a Western Movie?
He's the voice of Luffy from One Piece the Odex version
OH MY GOD...this....THIS IS GOLD. hahahaha
Is it just me, or does Yugi's grandpa sound EXACTLY like Krillin from DBZ Abridged?
Is Bakura ever gonna be safe from having a bad accent in English dubs?
I like British Bakura far better than this...thing. Although the EVIL version of Bakura in this dub is actually quite good.
This seems more like a bad fandub than an official release...
ofmg. Marik sounds like a girl XD
+CatsRul85 he sounds like frieza
+CatsRul85 Maybe it's because he's played by Taaz Gill, a woman in his dub :)
+CatsRul85 But that's Crazy
I grew up in Singapore so these were the voices i heard growing up, i thought Marik was a girl for a while because of the voices lol

"Monetized by 4KidsTV"
Pal, I'm pretty sure 4kids doesn't own this footage, miiiiight want to contest that content ID there.
Grandpa...literally sounds like someone from one those toony toons cartoons.
Sugoroku's voice... Ryou's voice...
I gotta watch tuis dub. It sounds hillarious.
So now Grandpa is Master Roshi and Ryou is... Little Abner?
Yami bakura was great at the end but the Singapore dub character voices sound so unnatural that I think the abridged series sounds more natural
Fuck This!!! Give me 4Kids please for the love of GOD give me 4Kids!!!
I like Marik's voice and this dub cuz its uncensored.
+Malygos The Spellweaver so you like Marik's voice just because this dub is uncensored?
Nah, it seems relevant to his character in my opinion
Because of his getup it just suits him
Malygos The Spellweaver tbh I hate how they gave him a girly voice in this dub, that voice is even more girly than Bakura's Japanese actress :P
+Tommy lol ikr, something about some guys being voiced by girls ticks me off. like Goku from DBZ being voiced by a girl in the Japanese version
I dont... hate bakura's voice in this. It fits sort of but dear god marik, what did they do to you?
I think they switched the roles???
at least they are following in the footsteps of the Japanese dub,except they got it a little mixed up. Isn't Bakura suppose to have the girl voice instead of Malik?
Normal Bakura sounds like a young version of Herbert The Pervert from Family Guy
Bakura sounds like Herbert from Family Guy

This makes me see Marik as a woman now ._.
holy shit i think they seriously thought marik was a girl
+Reagan Little yep Karkat they did
still better than the 4kids dub since they didn't cut anything nor change the opening/closing theme
You're both delusional...
WHAT THE FRIGGIN' FRIG IS THIS?!
Why does marik’s voice sounds like a girl?
Marik's voice is pretty good IMO, but horribly miscast, I like Dark Bakura's voice a bit, but regular Bakura's is worse than a kick in the balls. As for Grandpa... There's a special place in hell just for that son of a bitch!
WTF IS WRONG WITH RIO BAKAURUS VOICE XD
Da fuck o_o??
I've been scarred! i want the english dub or the japenese sub back!! :(
Kaiba - "Oh. My. Money."
Yugi - "Don't you mean God?"
Kaiba - "You worship your thing, I'll worship mine."
This dub sucks.
Marik's voice actress in miscast in this role, but her performance actually isn't so bad.
Chuck Powers as Bakura and Grandpa, though....AWFUL. GOD. AWFUL.
