Yu-Gi-Oh! fans are celebrating the manga’s monumental 25th Anniversary! Kazuki Takahashi’s original series first made its debut in the pages of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in Japan in September 1996, and ever since has sparked a huge franchise that has not only included the original spin-off, but several anime projects, sequels, movies, video games, merchandise, and even a real life trading card game that fans still actively play today. It started out as a much different kind of series than fans know it as today, but has still captured the imaginations of fans all around the world.ย
