Revision as of 07:13, 11 December 2004
Yu-Gi-Oh! A Shadow Game is the title of the first anime series based off of the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga.
The 1st series was produced by Toei Animation and it lasts for 27 episodes. Manga plots were re-written so that they could take up an entire episode time. Also the level of violence was reduced between the manga and the anime, and a minor character in the manga, Miho Nosaka (Melody in the English Dungeon Dice Monsters game), became a main character in the first series along with Yugi, Jonouchi, Anzu, and Honda.
New characters and plots, such as those relating to the four game masters, were added, and there are more occurrences of Seto Kaiba and Duel Monsters than in the parts of the manga that the Yu-Gi-Oh! first series show covers. The card game is not entirely the focus of the series in the series one anime. The last episodes of the series focus on the battle between Yugi and Dark Bakura (Yami Bakura in the English Duel Monsters anime). The first Japanese series had different voice actors and different character designs than the second series (e.g. Seto Kaiba's hair is green in Toei's anime). The Shadow Game series has not been translated into English.
After 27 episodes, the first series stopped production.
