| weregarurumon's Full Review: Yu-Gi-Oh! |
If you thought the old Pokemon show was bad, you haven't seen anything yet.
Sure, that show was nothing special to begin with. Compared to this, however, it looks like a masterpiece.
"Yu-Gi-Oh!" revolves around the cliched plot of using monsters to fight villains and save others. Boy, like that hasn't been done a thousand times before.
Not only that, but nearly every monster there is bears some resemblance to a Pokemon character. That's just a bit of evidence that it's a Pokemon rip off.
The characters are dumb and have lame personalities. Not one of them is engaging - - even Ash was more interesting than these people. Ever listened to Yugi, Kaiba, or any of them? Notice that they sound like Entei, Molly, etc.? It's because they have the SAME VOICE ACTORS. Basically all the show ends up feeling like is a half hour commercial for the TCG.
Unless you really need this kind of stuff, I'd advise that you pass on this show. Play one of your old Digimon/Pokemon/some-kind-of-monster-show game, or better yet, play something totally unrelated. Leave this rubbish on the shelf where it belongs and should have been in the first place.
