Review of Yu☆Gi☆Oh! (Movie)

It starts with a totally different mood than the conventional Yu Gi Oh Zero, with some relatively evolved and different characters (some even physically like Kaiba). The movie focuses on the card game "Duel Monsters", no longer featuring familiar games, and that's interesting, because that's when they started focusing on what would later become the well-known Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. The premise is generic, telling the classic story of the introvert and frightened boy who can stand out with something by luck (in this case, catch a Red-Eyed Black Dragon in a booster). I found it senseless that even after getting such a good card (The second bestin the game), the boy still had no confidence and still had an absurd fear of losing.

Kaiba organizing a tournament, as usual, calls Yugi and Shougo to participate. I thought Shougo would duel, but again Yugi who will duel with Kaiba. It's a rather interesting battle that makes you slightly distressed and anxious, but the end is already as expected. But it was a good scene, I admit ...

Final Thoughts: I don't even know if it should be considered a movie, it's more like an OVA. It seems more than just an advertisement to sell the cards that Bandai released shortly after the end of Yu Gi Oh Zero. The main mistake of this "movie" is that things happen too fast, it has a crazy pace. They tried to put too much into a short time!
