Now for a bizarre look into the origins of a certain children's card game.

Yugi Muto is a kid who likes any sort of games; board games, puzzle games, card games, even toy games but being short and fairly weak he doesn't have the most pleasant time in school constantly being bullied. That is until he solves an Egyptian artefact known as the millennium puzzle which transforms his persona into the King of Games, a confident gambler who challenges foes to games of severe consequences ranging from Death to being trapped in an endless illusion but with great power comes more evil foes as more well known regulars Kaiba and Bakura are among a list of rogues wanting a piece of the King of Games.
One thing you can never accuse Yu-Gi-Oh of being is having poor visuals yet season 0 is really hard to look at art wise, it looks almost amateur compared to even Season 1 of the series. Visuals aside I like the high stakes games and the consequences faced by each villain along with numerous creative ways of playing these games and the lack of restraint in each punishment, I almost wish this was still the series I had now, there is a simplistic charm to season 0 that future seasons lack with alot of baggage tied to whatever destiny the current series protagonist has to deal with, as for this series it's always a treat to see what solution Yugi comes up with to break out of his predicament and the cycle repeats frequently each with varying stakes and threat levels, it even made Mokuba a genuine threat.
Definitely no dub as it's likely disowned by the current license holders but if I was to base it on the character's dub in the first season it would have some painful dialogue to work with.
Final Verdict: It really is hard to watch with such a painful art style but offers a unique experience the other seasons lack.
