Another [Japanese cartoon] that has become so popular that it spread to other parts of the world.  Debuting in 1996 in popular Anime/Manga magazine, "Shonen Jump", by creator Kazuki Takahashi.  Main character 'Yugi' must help his dark half, an Egyptian Pharoah who has lost his memory, save the world from dark evil that never seems to end.  A 5,000 year old game has been linked to the present day in this popular Anime series which has hooked (mostly) boys from 6-17.

That's the clean and nice version.  This is the original.

When originally published weekly in the magazine, Yugi and his small group of friends, Téa, Joey and Tristan, just try to get through life living in Japan while attending a private high school.  Yugi seems to get involved in "adult" situations usually involving guns, gang [violence], and sex, and has to find a way out.  His other, dark, half comes out whenever he feels Yugi is in trouble and challenges his enemies to games where if they lose, they must play a "penalty game" where their life is changed to make them have a taste of their own medicine.  [That's what] it was like in Japan, before it hit American Censors.

To anyone who feels this is just another Pokémon or other Anime, blame the censors, not Japan.  And, to those who are knocking this HUGE hit, how many graphic novels have you read that make [you know what] the real story is? Don't knock it 'till [you tried it].
