(遊☆戯☆王Yūgiō, trans. "King of Games", occasionally subtitled "A Game of Darkness" or "The Shadow Games" or incorrectly referred to as "First Season", or "Season Zero" by fans) is the first anime adaptation of theYu-Gi-Oh!manga series. The 27-episode series was produced byToei Animationand aired onTV Asahifrom April 4 to October 10, 1998.

While this series is not directly connected toYu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters(known internationally simply asYu-Gi-Oh!, produced byNihon Ad Systemsand aired onTV Tokyo), both anime series are based on theYu-Gi-Oh!manga.

Manga plots were re-written so that they could take up an entire episode's worth of time. Also, the level of violence was reduced between the manga and the anime. Finally, a minor character in the manga,Miho Nosaka, became a main character in the first series along withYugi Mutou,Katsuya Jonouchi,Anzu Mazaki, andHiroto Honda. Characterization was slightly modified. For instance, Miho is a "ditz" in the anime while in the manga she is a shy student librarian. Also, Honda is Jonouchi's verbal sparring partner instead of his crony in Toei's anime.

New characters and plots, such as those relating to the four game masters, were added, and there are more occurrences ofSeto KaibaandDuel Monsters(Magic and Wizardsin the original Japanese manga) than in the corresponding manga. Unlike the second series, the card game (Duel Monsters) is not the sole focus of the show. However, the Duel Monsters rules have been updated, becoming more like those used in theDuelist Kingdom, even though this anime never gets to that point. The last episodes of the series focus on the battle between Yugi andDark Bakura. This 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 series has not been licensed for an English-language release.

Yami no Game

Yu-Gi-Oh! Season 0 | Wiki | Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist Amino (2)

In this series, Yami Yugi doesn't challenge people to a duel of Duel Monsters. Instead, he would challenge them to a Shadow Game, or Yami no Game, where he would then explain the rules. However, the person in question would cheat and the Doors of Darkness will open, thus Yami Yugi would do aPenalty Gameupon the person, and usually whatever they obsess over the most would be their nightmare, such as their makeup falling off and showing their true face or watches fusing to their being. Duel Monsters was not the main point of the show but was played a few times.

Design

Kazuki Takahashidescribes Yugi's hair as "an open hand with hints of a dried autumn leave". When designing characters, he tried to make them instantly recognizable by their hair alone. The hair was made so extreme with the intention of making an impactful character. Yugi's hair initially had red lines, but as it was difficult to add shadows to pure red, this was changed to a shade of purple. He designed the hairstyles of the protagonists of the next two series,Jaden YukiandYusei Fudo, such that Yugi, Jaden and Yusei's hairstyles representedpaper, rock and scissors, respectively.

The series original setting was a school and Takahashi felt an ordinary uniform jacket and would be boring. So Yugi was given bondage elements under the jacket, with influences fromEdward Scissorhands.

Anzu tended to Yugi's injury later, while Honda told them about Jonouchi's past withHirutani. The three agreed that Jonouchi wasn't back with Hirutani by choice and went after the gang.
