History WebVideo / YugiOhTheAbridgedSeries

Each episode of this series compresses several clips of ''YGO'' episodes into four- to eleven-minute clips, which [[LampshadeHanging point out and make fun]] of some of the [[FridgeLogic really absurd plot points]] of the series (just how ''does'' Kaiba manage to climb that cliff with a briefcase in his hand?) and a lot of the changes made in the [[Creator/FourKidsEntertainment 4Kids]] dub ("Don't move a muscle, or we'll shoot you with our [[FamilyFriendlyFirearms invisible guns!]]" "It is heavily implied that you are beating the ever-loving crap out of me!"), as well as lampooning [[ExecutiveMeddling the policies of the television networks]] that aired the show in North America.

TheAbridgedSeries spawned a [[FollowTheLeader handful of imitators]], but has since become an entire genre of internet videos and thanks to its expressive parody, quotes from the series are repeatedly used on this very wiki -- [[AscendedMeme as well as by a few of the actual voice actors]]. The series itself has been re-fandubbed or subbed into French, Portuguese, Swedish, Polish, Arabic, and, of course, [[RecursiveAdaptation Japanese]] (among others). The series has run for four complete seasons and is set to conclude with a fifth season, which began airing in 2021.

Videos of each episode can be found at Kuriboh's Website/YouTube [[https://www.youtube.com/user/CardGamesFTW account]]. Thanks to the ''wonderful'' world of copyrighted material dispute, the account has been terminated and reinstated '''[[OverlyLongGag a ridiculous number of times]].''' Also note that the current channel was originally made as a joke to be Yugi's in-universe channel; the original channel for the series too, was banned and unbanned repeatedly, which is why the show was moved. There is also his side channel [[https://www.youtube.com/user/ObeyMyRod ObeyMyRod]], home of the LetsPlay/MarikPlaysBloodlines videos, and [[WebVideo/NarutoTheAbridgedComedyFandubSpoofSeriesShow Ninjabridge]], which features many jokes and cameos from YGOTAS (albeit with more uncensored swearing).

''Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series'' (''[[NewSeasonNewName The Cancelled Series]]'' for the Virtual World arc and ''[[BrickJoke The Renewed Series]]'' for the next arc after that) is a GagDub and AffectionateParody of the second anime series of ''Anime/YuGiOh'' (the one most commonly known around the world), done by a guy known as Creator/LittleKuriboh (real name [[https://www.patreon.com/littlekuriboh Martin Billany]]). Each episode of this series compresses several clips of YGO episodes into four- to eleven-minute clips, which [[LampshadeHanging point out and make fun]] of some of the [[FridgeLogic really absurd plot points]] of the series (just how ''does'' Kaiba manage to climb that cliff with a briefcase in his hand?) and a lot of the changes made in the [[Creator/FourKidsEntertainment 4Kids]] dub ("Don't move a muscle, or we'll shoot you with our [[FamilyFriendlyFirearms invisible guns!]]" "It is heavily implied that you are beating the ever-loving crap out of me!"), as well as lampooning [[ExecutiveMeddling the policies of the television networks]] that aired the show in North America.

After some time Creator/LittleKuriboh eventually went to doing the same process with [[Anime/YuGiOhFirstAnimeSeries "Season 0"]] (the ShortRunner based more closely on the original manga), giving special attention to the AdaptationDisplacement and animation quirks of the earlier series. He has also abridged the first-series/"Season 0" movie and the [[Anime/YuGiOhTheMoviePyramidOfLight second-series movie]].
