Personally, I’d have preferred Cinedigm or Manga Entertainment have removed Capsule Monsters from the season line up and release it separately, as its original US DVD release that compiled it into two movies was. Although initially airing after the series had wrapped up, it takes place between KC Grand Prix and Dawn of the Duel and is included on this release of the fifth season. This Capsule Monsters arc was animated by Studio Gallop but has not seen a Japanese release unlike the Pyramid of Light movie. The US broadcast followed this scheme as well, but a few months after the final episode had aired, a 12 episode 4Kids-funded Capsule Monsters arc was aired. The original Japanese fifth season contains only 40 episodes, split into two arcs, 14 episodes making up the KC Grand Prix arc, and the remaining 26 being titled Dawn of the Duel. Regardless, you’ll be hit with some nostalgia when watching, and may even shed some tears during the final disc as I did.Īfter four seasons of searching for answers, Yugi finally uncovers the secrets of his ancient past! Through the magic of the three Egyptian God Cards, Yugi and his friends are suddenly transported 5,000 years back in time! Now they must battle the ultimate evil force to save the world from devastation, for if the past is destroyed…so is the future! – Manga Entertainment
This release is a 7 DVD set, in NTSC format once again, and only contains the 4Kids dub that we all either love, or love to hate.
Manga Entertainment have finally released the fifth, and final, season of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters anime in the UK, and with 52 episodes that culminate in one hell of an emotional duel between the two halves of Yugi’s soul, Yugi and the pharaoh, buyers are certainly in for a treat, after some suffering though.
