I'm still kind of befuddled as to why anyone would want to watch this show uncut in the first place. I mean, it's more of a shameless marketing device than even Pokemon.

Wow, very interesting. Hopefully there will be subs, but will the subs be the ones from the DVD or will they put new subs?
I was one of those people who bought all 3 of those DVDs and was really excited for the 4th one (since I was a big Jounouchi fan). I was sad that it was cancelled...I even went to Best Buy on the day it would be released. xD |

What is the posting two episodes without subtitles. Uncut and unedited is great for the fans, but you'd really have to know japanese to understand that.
As for the link, I am surprized 4kids knows that some fans dislike them. But because 4kids ruined One Piece and other shows, I can't blame the fans. I wonder what the higher ups think of the link? If a company ruins a show so badly (like 4kids did with One Piece), its only a matter of time before the company actually realizes this. |

The keyword here is "testing". I hope that what they're "testing" will also be subs for the show. I really want to have the opportunity to watch this show uncut and legally and understand it at the same time. As for region restrictions, is this show also available for viewing in Canada?
As someone who had watched all 27 episodes of that show and the half hour "movie", I can tell you with all honesty that it's not that good. Cheap animation, severely toned down penalty games, personality changes to key characters and (ugh!) Mayu, just made the series look way too kiddified and is nowhere near the envelope-pushing style of Takahashi's original manga. There is a reason that Takahashi hated the '98 series. |

None of the 4Kids videos I've tried to watch have been available in Canada. This includes Yu-Gi-Oh!.

Whaaaaat?!
What is this?! 4Kids and Japanese raws?!!? WHAT IS GOING ON?! Also, LittleKuriboh reports that 4Kids actually called Yugioh!Abridged "awesome" in a comment response. That is amazing. I can almost forgive 4Kids just from these 2 actions. |

I knew this would happen.
4Kids start to go down the shitter so they come crawling back to the real fans. I can certainly say I'm not biting, silly company. |

Yep, we shouldn't support 4Kids when they move in the right direction. That makes a lot of sense.
Besides, 4Kids doesn't get any profit from this at all. It's pure fan service. Looks like they're uploading eight new uncut episodes today. Unfortunately, the guy uploaded the edited dub, but looks like he's fixing that now. |

Yeah except Pokemon was a game first, that became an anime and Yugioh was a Manga first that became an anime and spawned a card game that's actually part of the manga and not just a shameless marketing by-product. It's okay if you don't like it. We all have are taste. Just don't like it for accurate reasons is all. Like, "I don't like it because its a show... about card games.... evil card games as a matter of fact. WOW..." you know, the obvious reason. Honestly I liked Yugioh for the art style it had when it was big starting around season 2. Plus the fact the show was interesting dispite when you break it all down, it was a show whose theme was about something pretty ridiculous. But that didn't stop me or the general public apparently. Alot of times around dinner I'd see Yugioh running on the TVs in the dorm's eatery back when I was in school and I could understand why. It was stylish and the studio or group in charged of the "good" episodes are one of my favorite teams. If only I knew their name or could read japanese well enough to find out who the head animation was for those episodes. It's just too bad the studio in charge didn't stick around to the end and ended up just doing the opening and closing animation for the show eventually. |

Holy crap, that's crazy. I don't think I can watch that many episodes today.
But how'd you know about the dub edited vs. uncut thing? |

They had the dub up by accident for like half an hour, but they took it down almost immediately. Eh...looks they switched episode four and episode five by accident too. And five has some sketchy audio. Everything else seems good though. |
