Duel Monsters is a game enjoying great popularity with teens such as Yugi, Tea, Joey, and Tristan. The game pits cards of monsters against one another in vicious battles in the style of an ancient Egyptian legend. When Yugi's grandfather gives him a puzzle with hidden magic, the fantasy game becomes a reality as Yugi and his friends transform into warriors who duel their way through a maze of mythic Egyptian creatures. Tournament battles and shape-shifting monsters gives this anime series a kinship with both POKEMON and DRAGON BALL Z, but with a distinct style all its own due to creator Kazuki Takahashi's unique vision. |
