The story doesn't repeat itself repetively without making any real progress like pokemon. While it is about card games, the situations can relate to real life. The characters are likable and somewhat realistic. It can be comical and serious, light and dark. They teach some good lessons about friendship, believing, power isn't everything, etc.
The characters do develop and are not completely one dimensional. For children 12 and under, I would recomend it. It has some good lessons in it unlike a lot of junk on tv now days. It is mature but still fun and easy to understand for children, plus the cards are cheaper. If one of those shows should sell actual cards it's Yu-gi-oh.Īnyway, I think it's a good show for younger people. At least in Yu-gi-oh, they actually use cards IN THE ANIME. If someone played a card game or collected cards, it was Pokemon. Where I lived as a kid, Pokemon was the thing.
I personally think Yu-gi-oh is a bit more mature than pokemon or digimon. The pokemon may have been cuter, but that was about it. (I'm comparing it to pokemon because Yugioh and Pokemon were the two main series for card games and stuff of a similar nature when I was a kid). At least there weren't a bunch of characters that looked the same and had the same name playing the same role everywhere he went (like pokemon) and it does get kind of dark at times more so than Pokemon. Heart of the cards, friendship blah blah blah, etc is a bit much for me now but I guess it isn't as annoying when you are a kid.
Rewatching it now, I find it slightly annoying. I quite after the main character was no longer Yugi though and the new stuff is no good to me. I Liked Yu-gi-oh when I was young, and I still say it's better than Pokemon. When I rewatched I watched 40 episodes but that doesn't make any sense either. Okay, so I know I watched at least some of this because I recognize the story but I don't recall watching over 200 episodes. I am scoring this based on it being for children and being a childrens anime, not as a anime for all ages or anime in general!
