Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series

This is the one that started it all; the show that caused abridging anime (and, on occasion, other things) to become an Internet phenomenon. With its parodying of obvious plot holes, clever catchphrases, and pop culture references galore, Yugioh Abridged has humor that nearly anyone can enjoy.

And yet, even amidst all of the hilarious and incredibly quotable lines, the Abridged Series still manages to retain the basic plot elements of the Yugioh Anime. People who have never seen the show, yet have watched the Abridged Series, actually begin to develop interest in the original series (I've seen it happen). Because of this, the series also serves as a great way to introduce your friends to Yugioh... in a way that's slightly more acceptable than usual.

LittleKuriboh, the man that writes, edits, and voices nearly the entire show, is a comedic writer on par with the best that Hollywood has to offer, and its inconceivable that he has not been hired to write for television as of yet. The humor, with the exception of comments on Mai Valentine, is suitable for all ages, and is brilliant in both its simplicity and its timing.

For those of you reading this that have never seen the series, I think it's quite obvious I highly recommend it. For those of you who have already seen the series, I apologize for being so boring and formal, and your mother plays card games in hell.

I love the show Yugioh ever since I was little. I was a huge fan, and I thought it was great. And back in 2007/08 I was so happy to have discovered this show. It's hilarious! I remember when I first watched all of the episodes, I nearly peed myself. And they're still funny 3 years later! Martin Billany aka LittleKuriboh has a fantastic voice talent, great editing, and he perfectly represents the characters with hilarious lines and references. He's a genius, not to mention down right hilarious. I always reference this and NO ONE understands, and it's hilarious to see their faces. I think this is the best abridged series on the internet, PERIOD. I highly recommend this to any anime and non-anime fans who are looking for a great laugh. Proud member since 2007.

10/10.

This is the best series ever, for starters. It hits on all of the key points of the series, for example, how can Kaiba climb up the side of a cliff with a briefcase. The quotes are amazing to, like Tristan's "No matter what happens the sun will come up in a few hours." or "My voice, it gives me super strength.". Tristan says almost anything and it's funny. I think it sticks to the plot quite well. This series has many fans, and would all agree if I said that this is the best abridged series ever. I can spend fifteen hours watching it (and I have). I love this series because of all the humor. As I have said before, this series points out all the things that don't make since in the normal series. I really recommend watching it, you will not regret it.

This YouTube series is the original abridged series and remains the best. It satirises the Yu-Gi-Oh! show by pointing out all of its ridiculous plot holes while also adding its own humour and storylines. It's incredibly funny and I loved it.

Let me start off by saying, that the Yu-Gi-Oh series has been a big part of my childhood that I still hold dearly to me. As of now I still enjoy reading the manga and watching the anime as often as I can. Words from a wise woman: When I say something is good, it's good okay? That includes YGOTAS, and the original YGO as well as Season zero.

When I was in eight grade I saw a comment special that he made, which featured the characters Joey and Kaiba. Curious of what it was I watched it. I found it simply hilarious, and I checked out more of his videos on LK's original channel. I was hooked on the abridged series! I even told my friends about it (too bad they didn't know what I was talking about, since every one of them was a bunch of Narutards)!

Honestly, I don't think I would consider you a fan of YGO if you haven't at least seen one episode of The Abridged series. So, go.. Check it out now if you haven't! Well, you better get there before Youtube starts acting like Llyod, and Harry from Dumb and Dumber!
