Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series

I have been currently obsessed with Yu-gi-oh online and so I thought I would post something related to the subject… well you see as I was going through some old episodes when a friend of mine recommended Yu-gi-oh the Abridged series. It’s a parody of the main show which basically summarizes the episodes. Littlekuriboh (the master of the series) did a fabulous job on it. It’s the most hilarious think I’ve ever seen. There are 25 episodes the movie and some extras, that contain most of the first season of Yu-gi-oh, part of the rest and well… the movie. By the time I was trough half of them I was rolling on the floor laughing.

I think Littlekuriboh is still updating on them, there’s supposed to be a new one out every week but I think he is running kinda late… but it’s ok, when you have to make up all those good lines you need your time.

If you haven’t watched Yu-gi-oh you probably wont get most of the jokes but it’s still really funny. Currently you can find it on youtube.com (on more than one users) and I’m pretty sure there are torrents of the episodes out there too, just type ‘Yu-gi-oh the Abridged series’ and you’ll come up with a bunch of them. Or you can always visit: http://www.yugiohtheabridgedseries.com

the series own website for the new episodes or any updates.

If you actually look you can find abridged series for a lot of other shows too… but as Yami said (on episode 18) “as everyone knows that’s just not quite as good!”

And a little advice while watching them: don’t under any circumstances watch them at night if you’re not confident on your rooms being soundproof or your neighbours aren’t gonna like it (or your sleeping parents for the matter)!!!

Clannad Episode 5

This episode starts where we left off the previous week. When Tomoya and Nagisa found out that Fuko-chan is (possibly) a ghost they decide that they need to meet her sister Ibuki-sensei to find out if it is really true. When they ask Fuko she refuses to go with them (probably not wanting to meet her sister since she is a ghost) so they take of on their own.

When they get to Ibuki-senses’ home she tells them that her sister is still in the hospital sleeping and she was thinking of postponing her wedding, since she can’t get married with her sister in the hospital. Of course Nagisa and Tomoya don’t mention anything about her sister’s ghost being around school. (And there is this cute gang when Ibuki-sensei assumes that Tomoya is Nagisa’s boyfriend, she denies it and Tomoya complains about her being too quick to say he isn’t.)

Later on they decide that Fuko can’t go back to her place but she can’t keep staying in the school all night so Nagisa offers to let her stay at her house. When they meet her parents to ask permission of course Fuko can’t use her real last name (since her sister is a regular customer of the bakery and Nagisa’s parents know that her sister is in the hospital) so when she is asked Fuko uses the name Isogai. Which would be a good thing (since it sounds original) if she hadn’t picked it up from the neighbors. They somehow manage to convince Nagisa’s parents that it’s just a coincidence so Fuko is allowed to stay for a while. And she somehow makes the Nagisa’s whole family stay up all night and make sculptures, which apparently aren’t stars… they are starfishes.(and Nagisa is the only one able to tell the difference…)

They spend most of the next morning giving away starfishes to random people. Somewhere along the way during one of Fuko’s starfish-ania moments Tomoya decides to play a prank at her and asks Ryou to pretend she is Tomoya and she just turned into a girl once Fuko wakes up. Of course since Fuko is so cute she doesn’t get the joke till it’s kinda too late but it’s ok… she is cute…

Anyway, she even tries to give a starfish to one of the senior students she once met at the entrance ceremony but she refuses to take it, saying that she doesn’t have time to fool around since she has exams to worry about. Fuko becomes sad and tells Tomoya that she never even had the time to go to class because she was making her sculptures all the time.

So Tomoya decides to gather together a class for her. Nagisa Youhei Kyou Ryou himself and of course Fuko gather together in one of the classes on the weekend (thank god some the school is preparing for some celebration and the classes are free and open). And who better to play the teacher that Nagisa’s mother???

PS: Youhei has a crush on Sanae-san. I wonder what he’ll do when he finds out that she is Nagisa’s mother… or that Nagisa is actually a ghost… or maybe they are a ghost family that came back from the dead to hunt the whole town and then conquer the word…(yeah I know I play too much Yugioh online…but it’s really good you should try it too…)
