Gonna complain about something real quick. Just to get something off my chest.
I. Don’t. Want. A Remake. Of the original Yugioh anime. Even if it’s faithful to the original manga, I don’t want it. Even if it goes darker and not with the 4Kids dubbing, I still don’t want it.
DSOD wraps up the story of Yugi and the gang pretty well (manga wise). And you can experience it over again in Duel Links and the anime is pretty available if you know where to look.
Let Duel Monsters rest! GX is in its 20th anniversary year and before the 2020’s era wraps up, 5DS will have its 20th anniversary year. I’m still hoping for an announcement of Yugioh 9 and I HOPE it’s a Rush Duel related show (Yugioh 10 can be a mix of Master and Rush though similar to what Arc-V did. Thats wishful thinking but I would accept that if it’s for the 10th show).
Yes I know some older anime/manga get remakes like Ranma 1/2 and yes, those anime’s deserve remakes especially if they’re pretty old (like Dororo). But to me personally, Yugioh doesn’t need one. I’m not saying that Duel Monsters is perfect, but I don’t want a remake of it. I want to see something new, I want to experience new adventures.
Edit: reached the tag limit so I’ll finish my thoughts here. Sorry for being relatively negative about this, I don’t tend to complain about stuff that much online. I just needed to get my thoughts out about this. If you are excited for a Duel Monsters remake, pop off! Good for you. I don’t want to rain on your parade. I myself am not but I’m not going to be mean about it. People want what they want
