Yu-Gi-Oh! is your classic 00's anime: good story, characters with spiky hair, cool music and overextended episodes with annoying filler.

STORY and ENJOYMENT: 7/10
**********
It's the first time I've watched a story about Egyptian mithology mixed with trading card games, and even though it has some big errors (such as almost no character respecting Duel Monsters's rules), I've enjoyed it to the fullest. Well, except for the filler arcs, which are all boring and provide nothing interesting to the series. Also why are so many flashbacks bro, you have to see almost 2 per chapter...

ART: 6/10
********
While the art is usually good, there are some chapters in which the characters look poorly drawn or even deformed.

SOUND: 8/10
***********
The OST is fascinating. But it can't be called a masterpiece, because most of the "epic orchestrated songs" that play when something crazy is about to happen last for 45 seconds and then loop, which makes these songs very repetitive.

CHARACTER: 2/10
*************
I hate every single one of them except Kaiba. Yugi is a horrible person that calls his best friend, Katsuya, by his surname, something that doesn't do with the rest of his other friends who, by the way, don't contribute almost in any way to the plot. Katsuya is an obsessed gambler addict that needs more medical attention than his sister. Pegasus's (the first villain) way of speaking gets me on my nerves...

And then we have Seto Kaiba. The Bruce Wayne of anime. He is the best character because, unlike the rest of them, he doesn't want his Duels with other people to be constantly interrupted by characters explaining their 2-episode flashback backstories.

OVERALL: 7/10
************
This anime is good, but you should definitely avoid filler arcs. It also will make you want to play the real card game, which I personally recommend to all of you to play it. I give this anime 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragon out of 3.
