I started watching Yu-Gi-Oh after I watch the "Yu-Gi-Oh: Pyramid of light", which you can purchase here at my store
This movie doesn't tell me how YuGi got an alter ego (Pharaoh from ancient Egypt?) nor how he got his "God cards". But it does give the overall of how the Yu-Gi-Oh tv series going to be: about the fight and challenge using the game cards . It always puzzled me on these game cards - where this game cards come from and who invented it ..... this is revealed in the TV series :D
So the TV series of Yu-Gi-Oh will bring you to a journey of how the Game cards (and other games related to Trading card games). Watching this anime made me think - if this world (the real world :D) have such a gaming device which we can project the characters in the game card and fight in real battle .....:')
Anyway, the graphic for the movie is much better than the TV Series but TV series is really long ..... like 225 episodes (and I just passed the 100 mark :S) ...... It is a different kind of anime that I used to watched (robots and robots). So it is kind of interesting for me :D
I hope there is someone else out there share the same feelings as me.
