Yuu Gi Ou (1998)

遊☆戯☆王

Information

Description

The boy Yuugi Mutou, who loves games and puzzles more than anything else, is given the mystical Millenium Puzzle by his grandfather, in which a soul lies hidden that is supposed to reveal its dark knowledge and give great power to the one who frees it. Several years after receiving the artefact, Yuugi finally manages to solve it. From now on, Yami no Yuugi’s soul, which was sealed in the puzzle, takes control of his body whenever he gets into trouble or needs help. The strange spirit challenges the troublemaker in question to a “Shadow Game”, a game with very high stakes, but always warns of the devastating consequences if he tries to cheat.

Annotation:
The nature of the Shadow Game differs depending on the situation and episode. The card game Duel Monsters, ubiquitous in the later series, is not mentioned at all or only in passing in many episodes.
Der Junge Yugi Mutou, der Spiele und Puzzles über alles liebt, bekommt von seinem Großvater das mystische Milleniumpuzzle geschenkt, in dem eine Seele verborgen liegt, die demjenigen, der sie befreit, ihr dunkles Wissen offenbaren und große Macht geben soll. Mehrere Jahre nachdem er das Artefakt erhalten hat, löst Yugi die Aufgabe schließlich. Von nun an übernimmt Yami Yugis Seele, die im Puzzle versiegelt war, die Kontrolle über seinen Körper, sobald er in Schwierigkeiten gerät oder Hilfe benötigt. Der seltsame Geist fordert den jeweiligen Unruhestifter zu einem »Spiel der Schatten« heraus, einem Spiel mit sehr hohem Einsatz, das sich je nach Folge und Situation unterscheidet, warnt aber stets vor den verheerenden Folgen bei einem Betrugsversuch.

Anmerkung:
Die Serie war die erste Adaption des Mangas, bevor der Fokus auf das Kartenspiel Duel Monsters gelegt wurde, weshalb dieses hier nur selten oder am Rande auftaucht. Die zweite Adaptation (»Yu-Gi-Oh!«) ist die bekanntere Version, die sich nur noch mit dem Kartenspiel befasst und international ausgestrahlt wurde.
