Best news of the week.
Heck yea.
Early GX wasn't bad. It goes full circle into complete absurdity.

Depends. Do you include FKT or not?
I counted them as the same arc. They're more intertwined than Water 7 -> Enies Lobby.
Why do people separate this arc? Stuff happens in Hueco Mundo and FKT at the same time.
Who's the kid with the spiky hair?
Shobu!
Plays the game of every heir?
Shobu!
Creatures battling in the zone
Shobu!
Winner take the trophy home
Shobu!
It's a shame Wizard killed the card game after 12 sets, just when the metagame was about to get interesting
How would you know? Nobody played it.

One part is better than the other and people don't want the good part being dragged down by the terrible part.
I honestly forgot everything that happened in KFT, before Ichigo went there.
Hey man, I went to like 4 tournaments even though we could barely get more than 3 players to participate
The online community with the simulator was semi active so I was still able to get in a lot of matches with the newer sets even after Wizard pulled the plug.
Hueco Mundo/FKT is what made me drop Bleach, so I'm having a hard time with you calling either arc "good".

Wasn't Duel Masters just a toned down M:tG? I remember thinking that when I saw people play it for the first time.
And Bleach-tards wonder why nobody likes them.

Oh please, you watch this fake anime stuff. What do you know about quality?
But honestly, HM only went downhill after the Grimmjow fight.
Does the arc where they are all in Egypt have any card duels? I know that Little Yugi has a big duel with Yami Yugi near the end, but isn't most of the arc just a bastardized version of Pokemon?

I don't know who you're talking to, but you couldn't mean me. You probably quoted me by accident.
Nope, I'm pretty sure I got you, Bleach-tard.
Have you ever actually watched Avatar? What don't you like about it?
guys stop
Where did you drop it? If you've read a bit of Fake Karakura Town then you've finished Hueco Mundo, but man the start of that is slow and boring.

Still seems to be going in Japan at least, also I guess there's some western reboot of the game called Kaijudo? Dunno. Never played an actual TCG outside of the DS YGO GX game and Magic 2012.

I'm not a Bleach-tard by any means. Stop acting so defensive, One Piece-tard.
Art-style and animation. It's really ugly and your constant gif spamming doesn't help.
I never played Magic competitively, but from what I remember it shared similar mechanics and was a bit simpler, but as they kept adding newer sets, they introduced lots of new mechanics and layers of complexity, especially with evolutions, and dual civilization cards. But most of these mechanics were still probably borrowed from Magic.
The reboot looks like an abomination, I have no idea what they were thinking. I don't even hear about it that much, I wonder if it tanked.
Kind of yeah. It was pretty cool imo.
The last chapter of Bleach I remember reading ended with the bald headed group 11 guy with the bankai being defeated offscreen. I remember reading that and thinking "You make me sit through these nobodies while the only character I come even close to liking doesn't even get a chapter? I'm done."
You like Bleach and make stupid drive by comments on One Piece to justify your liking of Bleach to yourself. You are a Bleach-tard.

Not even the best duel in that arc, that was the semi-final match between Yugi and Kaiba, I was on edge the entire time. Battle City was truly spectacular all the way around

YGO was great, the things that bugged me was believe in your cards, and Yugi having cards he never showed before out of no where. I did like the anime a lot.

why so many atla gifs...
Slifer the Sky Dragon duel was my favorite and most memorable one, that whole strategy. All the stuff with the battles in the air on the airship were additionally good too. JUst about the whole arc (none of that virtual world nonsense).

There are many, many manga I like more than Bleach. Just because I read it, it doesn't make me a Bleach-tard. I really don't see why I'd have to justify liking Bleach or any other manga. One Piece literally puts me to sleep.
Also, Grimmy wanted to throw a party, once I hit the 100 (or was it 1000?) "OP fans are the worst". You're invited.

Haha, just ignore him. He is butthurt about people liking Bleach.
Liking Bleach while sleeping through One Piece is literally impossible. Bleach-tard.
I feel like it could have been really amazing if it weren't about cards and luck of the draw. The mood set up by Battle City is one of the best.

You'd have to take some really good medication that prevents you from sleeping through Skypiea, Fishman Island and Punk Hazard. At least you can finish a Bleach chapter in less than 30 seconds.
You'd have to take the same meds to not sleep through all of Bleach.
The duel where Yugi acquired Slifer? That was a really good strategy.

By the time you fall asleep while reading Bleach, you already finished a volume.
True.
I've always wanted their duel disk as a kid... I've been rereading Yu-Gi-Oh lately, can't wait to reach this arc again.
Because Bleach has nothing in it.
I'm confused. Aren't you supposed to be defending bleach?
I had one (through my cousins, don't look at me funny) and they suck. Just not very practical to play using them.
I don't even remember this, but I guess that's very fitting.
I'm not entirely sure why he got a bankai in the first place. To dispatch some random pre-Hueco Mundo espada?

I'm doing my best!
At least you can't get distracted by 20 characters in one panel AND backgrounds!
Don't they destroy the cards? I always kept that shit in their sleeves. A real duel-disc with digital holograms was a fantasy of mine back then. Good times.
But they looked cool!
Better than entire chapters of nearly blank panels, ink splotch attacks, and pacing so bad the anime has to make episodes out of half of a volume.
