Yu Gi Oh: Season 4 [DVD] [NTSC]
S**S
The Product Itself (Season 4)
Pre released expectations:: Now, I'm expecting this set to be mostly similar to the past 3 other season sets, but different aesthetics. It'll have a slip cover, with Dark Magician Girl on it, with 2 volumes containing 3 discs each in them, each. Each volumes containing relatively 24-25 episodes each. I'll review it more in-depth when I get it next year, but I'm looking forward to it. Cinedigm & 4K Media are really hitting it on the head, with Thor's hammer for releasing these sets now, at such affordable prices & good packaging. Too bad it's not a better dub, with the Japanese language track & subtitles for it, but it's hitting the nostalgia factor really hard, as I mentioned already. Their capitalizing on the nostalgia factor for fans of the original dub & I commend them for it, but let's admit it, it could be a WHOLE LOT better, in hindsight. Whatever you think, I'm still getting this set when it comes out.Post release thoughts: It's DEFINITELY a good release of this version of the show here in America. It's the 1st release of the whole season here in the US. It was only released by FUNi & 4Kids in 3 volumes, with a 4th only being released in Canada, so this is a great way to get the series. The animation is really well produced. It's not HD, or widescreen, as it was produced before the HD switchover for TV shows, but it's up there with Fullmetal Alchemist (1st series) level animation quality, minus the 1 gun edit to a water pistol 4Kids made due to the standards & practices, but everything else looks pretty well produced. It's another filler arc, like the 1st half of season 3, but it's still pretty good. The Seal of Oricalcose arc, to be precise. Also, since Cinedigm hasn't released volume 2 on iTunes yet, for whatever reason, this is currently the only way to watch the whole season, minus maybe some streaming sites online.Now, this release does NOT have the Japanese dialogue, as it's the edited version, but it's still the old show you probably have nostalgia for. Can't wait for season 5, Bonds Beyond Time, & hopefully GX & 5Ds. They haven't made them available for preorder yet, despite an announcement that Cinedigm has signed a deal allowing them to distribute the other series' on DVD & iTunes. Though, they may be waiting on a possible continuation of the dubs for those 2 series by 4K Media, before starting to release them, as those 2 are not currently finished being dubbed because of reasons & I hope that's what they're doing for this future release they've announced. I'm surprised that they haven't made them available, as they've been releasing this series in about 2-month intervals since last year & they've had several of the seasons of this series available for preorder for MONTHS before they were released.Anyways, this is a good release & I'm content with it.

What do you mean Yugi's gone?
This season we saw that the origin of dual monsters goes back a lot farther then ancient Egypt. Its origins go back to the lost city of Atlantis and a battle that nearly destroyed the world. We also learn that the monsters used in dual monsters come from a parallel universe and they helped fight in this battle.Now in present day Yugi/ the Pharo/ Yami most fight this war again and they aren't alone, Yugi is bringing his friends and the monsters have return as well.the season wasn't bad, just a few plot twists.

Perfect
I was reading reviews where someone had stated that the screen had black lines on the side as it was in 4:3 and not 6:9 ratio, but I didn't think it was too big of a deal, however when I got it, it fit my screen in 6:9 ratio perfectly, there was no black lines and I found the picture to be very clear. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the fact that I'm in Australia but I thought it might be helpful to state that it fit my screen perfectly.It came the day I expected it to and it was perfectly packaged. There was no damage to the box or cases which I'm really thankful. Also, people have been asking whether Dan Green still does Yugi/Yami as he is not listed in the actors, yes it is still definitely Dan Green for anyone who was wondering.I absolutely love this series and can't wait for the next, so I will finally own all of the original Yu-Gi-Oh series. I definitely recommend buying from Amazon.

Same results: Decent and working
All six discs work. Though two discs may depend on the player (a PS2, in my case; I had to use a regular DVD player for the last two).Here, we find our hero facing his worst from within as well as the worst of strangers--Mad King Darts and his lackies, Rafael, Allister, and Vallen. And the worst of familiars--Weevil Underwood, Rex Raptor, and even Mai Valentine. There is still the best about our protagonists, namely Yugi/Yami, Joey, and Kaiba.Between you and me, I would have prefered Darts getting his just reward as opposed to reform. But when you have an anime...Judge for yourselves as you run through Series 4 of Yu-Gi-Oh! (Waking the Dragons).

The King of Games vs. Atlantis!
The fourth season of Yu-gi-oh is an interesting little detour from the main plot of the series. Fans either love it or hate it, because the plot and characters seem to be extended far beyond the source content. However, I found the Atlantis/Legendary Dragons twist to be refreshing after the extended tournament arc that was Battle City (which I also enjoyed). The introduction of the Seal of Orichalcos may have seemed like an overpowered plot device, but I thought it added a nice twist to the show and its gameplay. I also appreciated the fact that side characters like Mai, Weevil, and Rex actually got another chance to duel in the series.Overall, while not a perfect season by any means, season 4 is definitely worth a look for those who haven't seen it.

Awesome.
I bought it with the seller of Amazon. Like promised, it did arrived right before 8pm last Sunday. I just started watching the first disc, and it does work. However, I was hoping that I could watch it in Japanese also, but I guess not. I'm happy to be able to get this cause cause I've been wanting to get the complete season since watching the episodes back in high school.It would have been nice if it was on bluray also, but I am sure that it would be more expensive than the dvd. And yes, I am in my late 20's and a female.

I love this season!
From Yu-gi-oh, i loved the most this season, I can say that the only thing that disturbs me a little bit, is the fact that the audio is just in English and doesn't have subtitles... the only language is English... But for me it is fine, I love this season.

A weird but good season of Yu-Gi-Oh!
Definitely a weird season of Yu-Gi-Oh in my own opinion but still love the show as a whole. 4/5 stars only because of the plots but it picks back up after this season.

The Epic Fourth Season, Finally Preseted in it's complete form!!!
For the first time ever, die-hard fans of Yu-Gi-Oh can experience the epic fourth season of Yu-Gi-Oh, the way that it was meant to be experienced: In it's entirety. I had a wonderful time re-watching season 4, even though this was not my favorite season when I first watched all those years ago, re-watching this set has lightened my opinion of the season. All 40 episodes included in this set look and sound fantastic, overall this season is a fantastic addition to any Yu-Gi-Oh fan's collection, I am looking forward to getting Season 5 when it is released late this spring and completing my collection.
