Duel Monsters, created by Kazuki Takahashi, aired in Japan on TV Tokyo from December 24, 2003, to September 29, 2004. Anyway, I don't know if this really counts as a review, it's more a random assortment of my thoughts of the anime vs the manga, the manga is better overall but there's a lot of welcomed changes in the anime, making it a superb adaptation. For one, Honda (Tristan) is a much more funnier character in the anime than he is in the manga. It keeps the soul of the manga intact and has fun with the changes. However, despite these flaws, this is still a very enjoyable and fun adaptation. Story elements are changed and some chapters from the manga don't make it into the anime. Manga readers be warned, this is not a 100% faithful adaptation, there are quite a lot of differences such as Miho being a primary character and Kaiba having green hair. This series essentially adapts the first 7 volumes of the Yu-Gi-Oh manga, before it became only card game oriented. Many fans call this series 'season zero' even though it actually has nothing to do with the second series anime (the one 4Kids dubbed) other than sharing the same name and characters.

Yu-Gi-Oh! (1998) is the first anime adaptation of the popular manga by Kazuki Takahashi.
