Title: Yu-Gi-Oh
Summary: Yugi Mutou was just a shy, picked on kid in high school (though he looks much younger) until he put together an ancient Egyptian puzzle that gave the solver of the puzzle one wish. He got his wish, however he would never have guessed what came along with his wish...the use of the shadow games and a shadow that has been waiting for him for at least two thousand years.

If you think this will start just like the anime then you got another thing coming! It starts with Yugi trying to put together the puzzle,not with it completed and knowledge about it. You get to learn about the characters, and some how they were before they met Yugi. There is more comedy and side-stories than the anime (as many of us see it). It's also more teenager oriented so I wouldn't let your younger siblings read a few parts, but for the most part it's alright just use your common sense where you see fit ^^. Also as a side note, if you were hoping to see any of the card game you'll have to wait, the cards don't even make an appearance till like volume 7 or somewhere around with Kaiba (also his brother is a BIG pain in the beginning!) All in all its a good read and is recommended to anybody who likes comedy, action, puzzels where the penlty for losing is your sanity(of something to that effect), and battles. Enjoy!
