I have never watched the original YGO anime all the way through, I only got to somewhere in the Battle Kingdom arc, and I have said to myself that I would get around to it eventually, so gonna finally do it. I am watching the sub, since I have also never done that, and since I watched all the other series subbed, I figured it would make the most sense. Time for the first episode, back in 20 minutes.

Yeah, it was never fully dubbed in Danish I don't think, so missed out on a lot of the episodes, I watched a bit of GX, but I eventually lost interest and didn't come back until ZEXAL was halfway done. Then I watched all of that, GX and 5D, and by the time Arc-V was out, I was pretty much invested in the game completely.
Finished the first episode, man is it weird to actually just watch this show, I watched a bit of season 0 some time ago, it was quite rough to say the least, but surprisingly, the animation holds up quite well to this day, the voice acting is much more tolerable than the dub ever was, and while it has the melodrama, it doesn't seem as bad as I figured it would. Oh my god is it cute that the game has evolved so much that them talking about a Normal Monster as being powerful is in any way suppose to scare me. It's also crazy that for so long, I had lived with the reality that Kaiba brought out 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons in one turn, when in fact, he brought them out on separate turns, and that he did in fact, not cheat during that duel at all. Well, except for of course not Tribute Summoning, but hey, neither did Yugi when he brought out his Gaia the Fierce Knight and Dark Magician, so guess they didn't have that yet. Funnily enough, Swords of Revealing Light only worked for the Blue-Eyes and not monsters brought out later, unlike the real game, not sure if that's going to be consistent to the show. Gonna take a bit to get used to the Japanese names, I wonder if Zuzu's name was inspired y Anzu in any way.

Tbh, I think season 0 is the censored form of the manga, then season 1 is a reboot that skipped the material of season 0 because they deemed season 0 too harsh to easily censor. And then another layer of censor was applied by 4kids. It's amusing in a way xD
Yeah Kaiba played 1 BEWD x turn and Yugi played defending chumps that the episode fast-forwarded to. In Duelist Kingdom Rules (and this is only ever explained in the manga) if your opponent did not play a monster during their turn and have no monsters on board (both of these conditions) you can actually attack directly, but it just never came up. It really enforced stalling cheap until you drew what you needed.
