Introduction
Back in 2004, before the advent of Yu Gi Oh The Abridged Series, I posted a liveblog-like synopsis of the early YGO manga for the folks at Television Without Pity. It occurs to me that you folks might like to see it.
If you're only familiar with the series through the dub, or are only hearing about it for the first time now, you should be made aware that originally YGO wasn't about card games! This gives it a certain variety of plotline the later volumes lack.
As you know, I feed on your comments, so let me know you're reading this, and any potholes or bluelinks I should edit in!

Loved that one just for how understated it was, Myth Busters-inducing FWOOOSH aside. It'd work pretty well even outside of context: offer the guy a light, then place the lighter where it'll do him some ungodly harm if he so much as twitches. :3

And one of only two times in the pre-Duelist Kingdom manga where Other Yugi loses a game. On purpose.
