nightshade_novels's review against another edition
3.0
Ryuji Otogi is known as Duke Devlin in the American Anime. But no matter his name I still think he is cool.
So far the manga have been very similar to the anime that I am used to. However, this volume took a bit of a different turn, although it is possible to spot the similarities, where the original things from the manga have been twisted and incorporated into the story for the anime. Jonouchi plays Ryuji at some small dice and card games, not duel monsters and he never has to wear a dog costume when he loses.
For the first time ever you get to see Yugi’s mother, in only two panels but she’s there! She seems to be worrying about Yugi as he keeps talking to himself, haha!
Ryuji’s father had lost to Yugi’s grandpa in a forbidden Devil’s Board Game, causing him to age 50 years in one night. He vows revenge and trains Ryuji in games from a young age so that he can defeat Yugi. As Ryuji’s father steals the Millennium Puzzle Yugi cannot get help from Yami to play DDM, when Yugi begins to get the upper hand anyway he smashes the puzzle. Interestingly Yami Bakura finds his way into the store and finds Yugi, encouraging him on to winning.
The differences between the anime and this volume were very interesting and I am intrigued to see how they following volumes turn out.
