I had to edit the opening paragraph because someone had edited it so it contained sexual meanings
Korean War
Someone should mention that "Yugioh" (technically "Yug-I-Oh") in Korean means 6.25, which is what South Koreans usually call the Korean War. (As it started on 6.25)
- We're not here to report coincidences. Setokaiba✌≝ 17:51, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
- And it's not technically Yug-I-Oh, for the record. Both the English Yu-Gi-Oh! and the Japanese Yuugiou are acceptable. John D'Adamo 16:37, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Fan site?
What was wrong with that last fansite I tried to link to? Was it against a rule? --63.65.45.98 20:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
We really don't like to have people post fansites. Mainly due to the fact that so many just try to advertise and/or the sites don't provide much information. Then again, this is my opinion. Manjoume Thunder 17:54, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Misc Comments
I deleted the link to "Yu-Gi-Oh! Zone" because the link didn't work. About "Ultimate Shoujo's" link.
I didn't realise that the fan sites section had to be 50 % to 100% Anime/Manga content. I made it as a shrine to ALL of the Yu-Gi-Oh females. Anime/Manga, TCG and real life female fans/duelists. I will live with the desion that Ultimate Shoujo's link will only be listed in the TCG/OCG articles. I will stop re adding the link to the main Yu-Gi-Oh! page. At first, I thought it was a vandel, so that's why I kept adding the link. Oh well, They did warn us about having our stuff edited/deleted with out notice.
Speaking of wich... Can we have this article "Locked"? It would keep non members from accidently deleting stuff. Just a suggestion. Thundercat2
- I had suggested it does get "protected" or "locked" at one point not too long ago due to the sheer amount of vandalism and abuse this page has been taking esp from unregistered users. (though oddly enough, this page seems to even get some vandalism from some newly registered users as well, almost as if they register just to abuse the page. Go figure.) ZyphBear 05:36, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Guys, it's not every day that I try to contribute, and I do not understand why, after I Added militate.com, Geg removed the link. It's a prominent Yu-Gi-Oh! site, also known as yugioh-fusion.com so why the deletion?
Actually, it looks like Geg has been doing alot of "trimming" lately for things he doesn't seem to agree with, even if they happen to be true. (and instead of just saying "was put in wrong area, moved to correct area", he just deletes it. Oh well, guess what's why they say "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it."ZyphBear 14:04, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Please don't add the names of characters without some kind of content with them. There is no benefit to anyone otherwise. RadicalBender 22:26, 9 Jan 2004 (UTC)
The last Yu-Gi-Oh episode was printed and published on March 8, 2004 edition of weekly Shonen Jump. Just to let you know. All good things must come to an end. :) Revth 18:13, 10 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Actually, I'm trying to find some actual confirmation of this. I know some people have been saying this, but the most recent scans seem to indicate it's not done quite yet, it's just in the final arc. Yugi is battling himself (Yami Yugi), but the fight isn't over as of issue 339. I could be behind, though - I'm not sure. Do you happen to know the number of the final issue?

Yu-Gi-Oh! is not finished!
A new Yu-Gi-Oh! story started in the Japanese Shonen Jump: Yu-Gi-Oh! R
--
Also, 4Kids seems to be airing a new, original season after the duel that follows Memory World in Ireland, called Yu-Gi-Oh: Capsule Monsters. I put what I know about it on the wikipedia page, but 4Kids hasn't even officially announced it....
--Dawn
The 'Capsule Monster' story has been announced, the DVD is coming out, an online screening has been scheduled, and a possible Fall 2006 Airing has all been added to the article. ZyphBear 12:47, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Yu-Gi-Oh! naming
This article should be moved to "Yu-Gi-Oh!" with the exclamation mark! WhisperToMe 20:43, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Yes, it should. I've been meaning to do this for a while... RADICALBENDER★ 22:38, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Last set of changes
- I intended to pop over to the French WikiP and rename their article, but the Movepage function isn't working. I left a request in their Talk page to move it. As for the "removal of criticism", I think article are much stronger when facts are presented as they are, so the reader can draw their own conclusion. The previous criticism section was weasl-y, with no citation or reference of where that opinion came from. -- Netoholic 04:06, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- That doesn't even make any sense. So, why shouldn't those criticisms be under their own section (especially since you didn't remove any content)? The article is getting more and more poorly organized.
- Finally, guns and violence, etc. don't fall under "FCC v-chip regulations," which don't actually exist. The networks are left to their own devices to assign ratings to shows. They could have left the entire show alone without any interference from the FCC (the parents would've gone ballistic because American sensibilities about children's shows are different from Japanese, and that is what I changed the sentence). And the proof? FUNimation is planning to release an uncut, Japanese-language version on DVD.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie
The 2nd movie of Yu-Gi-Oh! will be aired on TV-Tokyo on January 2, 2005. (See here). And although so far the movie was not released in theatres in Japan, I heard that readers of the Japanese Shonen Jump were invited to special previews of the movie in November 2004.

Episode guide!!!
I think someone should add the complete Yu-Gi-OH episode guide!!!
That would be nice, but if it's done it should be on a seperate page linking to this one. Yu-Gi-Oh! is one of the longest running anime I've seen, and I know there are longer ones. A list, much less an episode guide, would be too long for this article, but is a good suggestion for another page.
Millennium Puzzle Game
Words from Kazuki Takahashi concerning Magic & Wizards, shown up after you finish the Millennium Puzzle Game (Macromedia Shockwave is required to play the game). Click "CLICK HERE", then click "ゲームスタート" to play it.
Japanese text:
CONGRATULATIONS!!
ゲームクリアおめでとう!!
あの千年パズルを完成させるとは・・・
キミはすごいゲームセンスを持っているね!!
よし、約束どおり遊戯王の秘密の世界をお見せするとしよう!!
マジックアンドウィザーズの秘密!!?
マンガに登場するマジックアンドウィザーズは、 ご存知のようにマジックザ
ギャザリングをモデルにしています。 僕もギャザリングはプレイしますが、
とてもルールが難しく、 カードの種類もたくさんあるので、 閉口しています。
マンガのマジックアンドウィザーズがあんな風にシンプルなゲームになったの
は、 そんな風にマジックザギャザリングが難しかったからということも実は
理由の一つです。でも、最近マンガのほうも難しくなっているといううわさ
も……!!?
English translation (feel free to improve it):
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Congratulations on clearing the game!!
Having completed that Millennium Puzzle...
You have a great sense of gaming!!
Alright, I will show you the secret world of Yu-Gi-Oh!, as promised!!
The secret of Magic & Wizards !!?
As you know, the Magic & Wizards game that appears in the manga uses Magic: The Gathering as a model. Alhough I also play Gathering [1], I am nonplussed by it because the rules are very difficult, and there are many different types of cards. In fact, one of the reasons the Magic & Wizards in the manga was such a simple game is that Magic: The Gathering was difficult in such a way. However, rumor has it that the recent manga is also difficult to understand......!!?
Note:
^ Magic: The Gathering. Although the game is usually referred to as Magic or MTG for short, here (and only here in the article) Takahashi uses "ギャザリング" (Gathering) to refer to it,
Memory saga
Will the Yu-Gi-OH Memory saga air in America??
It will. This morning whlie I watched the end of Grand Championship, there was an add for Dawn of the Duels. It showed Yugi dressed as the Paraoh and Kaiba holding the Millunum Rod. My guess is it will be aired and this will be the last season.--Dylankidwell 18:35, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
Memory Saga
Which age group is the Memory Saga aimed toward... Because the Japanese veriosn pretty violent. And will it be very edited...? Examples:
- Yugi's grandfather got shot (episode 199)
- Mahado's sacificed (episode 204)
- massure in the Theif Village (episode 206)
- Dark Priest being stabbed (episode 214)
etc...
(anon)
- The original Japanese version was aimed towards teenagers in the 13-17 level. The dub version is aimed towards kids in the 6-12 level. Therefore, a lot of the goodies were edited out. I go into detail on my website, feel free to use it as a resource. :) John D'Adamo 16:39, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Yu-Gi-Oh! articles terrify me
See, I knew nothing about Yu-Gi-Oh!, so I thought I could stand to learn about more fiction. I come here, and what do I see? LISTS. LISTS OF CARDS. And the most overblown template I've ever seen in my entire life. This frightens me. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you are talking about, "Lists, lists of cards". A quick glance at a revision to this article before your post, [2] doesn't seem to be too terribly card heavy. Furthermore, it's not like it's telling a ghost story or something so aren't you being a bit absurd with that "terrified" line? Hackwrench 15:13, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
I am the exact sort of person whom those articles are for: somebody unknowledgeable in the fiction. It is not a good testament on all your abilities if a newcomer is scared away. Not at all. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- No, you aren't the exact sort of person these articles are for. The articles should be informative to everyone who wants information on this, no matter their familiarity with it. Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
The main problem, really, is the lists of cards. I'm not certain how you guys reached the conclusion of people caring about the specific details of fictional characters' decks, so I'll be blunt: nobody cares. To provide an example, I see Seto Kaiba posses a Luster Dragon #2! Do I know what the creature with such an absurd name is? No. Is it all that important? Most assuredly not. Thus, why waste the reader's time and expect him to care? --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- Oh, and you are somehow a master on what is important for every reader who comes here? You've already admitted your ignorance of the subject matter, and now you claim to be some sort of mind reader? Nobody cares? I suppose in your world, if you've seen one person, you've seen them all! Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is not a indiscriminate source of information, and most certainly not an obsessive fansite. Thank you. --Apostrophe 05:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- Please keep in mind that you are not an authority on what is or isn't indiscriminate. Thank you. Hackwrench 15:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
So the cards should be limited to "notable cards" so the list isn't so gosh darned long, right? I don't even know what the cards do either; I only read the comics. WhisperToMe 05:12, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
EDIT: Another idea: What if the strategy of each deck was explained, with the roles of each card? WhisperToMe 05:18, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- Either option would be a improvement, any sort of interesting prose would be preferred to longwinded lists that can and will be easily skipped. --Apostrophe 05:51, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- I've always felt that each entry should have a short list of "notable cards" with notable cards being defined as the character's signature card and/or a card that contributed to the advancement of a storyline, i.e. Yugi's Dark Magician, Dark Magician Girl, Buster Blader, Exodia, Kuriboh and the Egyptian God Cards. Every time I turn around, it seems that there is a new article on a low-level card, i.e. Saggi the Dark Clown, and I am hesitant to remove it because there seems to be no clear-cut and definitive answer on what to keep and what to remove. - DrachenFyre 17:00, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- I would prefer this, actually. Explaining every card in their decks would be a longwinded nightmare. I know little about Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I'd be glad to help with the trimming if I can. --Apostrophe 23:35, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
- I really wouldn't care either way, I guess, though I'm the one who helped put most of the card lists together (most of them were half-done so I figured I'd do some research and finish them off). I definitely agree with DrachenFyre that I hate seeing actual pages being made of random cards I've never even heard of and stuff. Still, there are lots of pages worse than the YGO ones. If you really want to see an excess of pages, check out the Wiki stuff on Lord of the Rings. Geg 23:01, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
- Then let us take a stand and differ from the LotR entries. Whilst I know that Wikipedia isn't a "paper" encyclopedia (as has been pointed out to me before), I still think that listing ALL major cards that the main characters have used is, ultimately, pointless and just clutters the article. Who's with me? Hmm? :-) - The Dragonmaster 23:23, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

If you wanted a fansite, theres a proper Yu-Gi-Oh! wikia. --144.137.60.44 08:47, 13 May 2006 (UTC) (Yami_Michael)
Couldn't you just put a card list on a seperate page (with a more specific title like "Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Lists")? The biggest problem there would be finding the time and energy to make it. I made one once, but it took me months of watching eBay for specific card numbers. I used it often when it was done, but then my computer got wiped out by a virus and it never occured to me to back them up. There are people out there who would use (and likely bookmark) such a page... just a thought. Smokeresearcher 17:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- I have to agree. A card list article would serve better than a section in the main article. Also, if there are any notable cards, they should have a seperate page from the card list, rather than try to explain each and every card's stats and effects. There ARE articles that are mostly lists, and the ones for Yu-Gi-Oh! are getting B-Class ranking because of this. A central list would be more effective, possibly divided into "Real Cards," "Anime Exclusive," and "GX Exclusive." Dracokanji 12:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Trying to explain all the cards would take up sevral megabytes of information and several months of one person's free time (on his/her own). If you tried to create seperate links explaining every card that need explanation, they would likely overlap a bunch of other non-Yu-Gi-Oh related topics. The list itself would be bigger than the entire article though, so putting the list in a seperate articleis unquestionable. Based on that Animé tag, I'm sure Wikipedia wouldn't really mind the space. Obviously it would be a great asset to Wikipedia (think of all the people who would come just to look up a card they didn't know on the list. Hardly anyone knows all the cards in the game). It would just be really hard to find someone with all the time to make the list. There is a site, called pojo, that lists a few cards (something over 1,000) that might be a good place to start, but their lists aren't complete (even the ones on the left-side colomn) and I believe putting links to their type of site is against Wikipedia's policy because they advertise a lot. I'm playing a game of college-catch-up and am a little pressed for time, but maybe I'll try to start it sometime. Could anyone anyone with some free time help me wit this unenviable task? I think the article should be named List of Yu-Gi-Oh Cards (use this link to get started), but if someone disagrees, please speak up. --Smokeresearcher 23:11, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
Redirect from Amane
I was trying to get information about that new image server's namesake, and I found out that Amane redirects here. Why?
Because "Amane" in a Yu-Gi-Oh! context is Amane Bakura, Ryo Bakura's sister. WhisperToMe 23:34, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Something to Consider
Is it possible that this Yu-Gi-Oh character is a Mormon? The reason I ask this because there are possible resemblemce between these Egyption cards and Joseph Smith's "Reading Stones".
Just a thought...
69.248.43.27 05:50 24 December 2005
Oh no. The character is most likely Shinto and Buddhist. Almost all Japanese people are Shinto and Buddhist. WhisperToMe 17:05, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
Wrong again. Those "Reading Stones" you're referring to are the Urum & Thummim. Also, which character are you referring to? Religion is usually never brought up in cartoons. 71.111.215.224 23:20, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Have to agree with 71.111.215.224 on this one. In my back-breaking Yuugiou research there is absolutely no allusion to Yuugi Mutoh's religion at all in the series. His only belief is in the power of his own cards and that of Atemu that lied within the Sennen Puzzle. As for Atemu, as he was at one point an Egyptian pharaoh, he probably believed in the gods of Egypt. -JD of Yuugiou Uncensored 192.168.1.21 11:15, 13 May 2006
But that doesn't mean that Yug is an athiest. 71.111.232.40 22:43, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
- It really was never revealed in either version. In the dub, he believes in the power of his cards. In the Japanese version, he believes in the bond between him and "mo hitori no boku", the other him, or Atemu. Therefore, we can't just assume he was any religion at all. Remember, real-world rules don't apply. They use freaking realistic holograms and duel disks. John D'Adamo 16:41, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Why is the page in japanese?!?!
WHY IS THE PAGE IN JAPANESE?!?!?!?!
- Ok Bobaboba why did you change this page into Japanese?
Err, there's way too many YGO related pages that are probably nonnotable
We're accumulating way too many pages about various cards, most of them not notable, and basically crud in general. I propose massive deletions/redirects to trim this down.--Frenchman113 20:04, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
Long Page
This page is becoming very long. Will somebody please put a message on the site saying that, or fix it yourself by putting some information on "sub-sites"?
Nate 12:09, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
What do you mean? We ignore the 32 KB limit now. WhisperToMe 00:59, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Protection?
There seems to be a very large amount of vandalism on the page recently. (maybe due to extra promotions from KidsWB that the series is ending?) In any case, I am proposing to at least temporarily protect the page. Personally I would have hoped more non-registered members would have been able to make edits, but it's getting pretty bad. Any input on this? ZyphBear 04:27, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
Would someone please take a look at the Valon (Yu-Gi-Oh!) article? It could use a lot of cleaning up. I'm not an expert on Yu-Gi-Oh! so if someone else could take a look at it, I'd much appreciate it. Thanks, Metros232 23:52, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
I redirected it to the Valon article. WhisperToMe 01:33, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Yami no Game/Shadow Game
- This question regards the anime, in particular the Toei version in comparison to the Duel Monsters series. In the former, Yami Yugi knows what a Shadow Game is from the get-go; in the latter, he learns what one is from Pegasus (seemingly; I haven't been able to see the Japanese version). Which one is true in the manga? Danny Lilithborne 23:51, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- The first is true in the manga. In fact, the very first thing he does in the manga is draw someone into a Shadow Game. WhisperToMe 00:47, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
What's realy Oricalcos
Oricalcos is metal with golden shine. It is belived that it was used in city Atlantis, on buildings and as armors an weapons. The first aperance of Oricalcos is on paintings in one of piramids that show's Egyptans fighting strange warriors which are belived to come from Atlantis. As no such metal is found it could also be Bronze or even Titanium as both have golden shine.
In some fantasy stories Oricalcos has devine powers and/or can be enchanted only with "good" energies.
Project Yu-Gi-Oh! (maybe?)
The way the Yu-Gi-Oh articles are written and set up on Wikipedia needs a lot of reorganization and revision. Too many individual pages for minor charactors and an excess of card pages (this has been resolved recently) have alienated non-Yu-Gi-Oh! fans, and this should be rectified. While Wikipedia is not indescriminatory, it is supposed to be informative to those who are infamiliar. Some of the pages are esoteric and I think an effort should be put forth to re-establish the information presented on Wikipedia.
Hey, has anyone noticed this?
That the first series is named Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series?!?!?!?!?!?!? No hard feelings.
