Writer’s block has struck, so I’ll write a short article about the popular Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series. Created and almost entirely voiced by Little Kuriboh, this spoof is a sharp and clever jab at both its premise and 4Kids’ horrendous butchering of the show, but everything else in popular culture is fair game too. As the title says, each episode is abridged from the original 24 minutes to anywhere from 5 to 9 minutes in comical fashion.
YGO: TAS is probably best appreciated by those familiar with the 4Kids dub, but I think everyone should be able to enjoy it. There have been several copycat knock-offs (Naruto: TAS, Berserk: TAS) but accept no substitutes, because this is still the best. Go check it out for the lulz. A real post will be up soon.
PS: I happen to think Yu-Gi-Oh is a badass show. Here’s one reason why.
PPS: Yeah, I know I appeased the female readers for once with this picture. Madness!

I absolutely love Little Kuriboh’s fandubs. They’re so stupid, but I guess that’s why they appeal to me …
Sort of reminds me of Casey and Friends. Which is a good thing.
I need to catch up on the episodes. They’re so great. And I believe that the other copycats acknowledge which one is the best. Hell, in an episode of Naruto: TAS, LittleKuriboh guest starred and pretty much said as much.
I distinctly recall being terribly disappointed when I realized that there was no BL in Yu-Gi-Oh despite someone having made the claim that there was later on… I guess saying ‘my faith has been restored!’ wouldn’t exactly apply, but the abridged Yu-Gi-Oh is pretty awesome.
