That was obvious about Jounouchi being forced to join them and why. Was good to know a little about his past. That last walking dog was funny.

This one was just odd. For some reason they decided to adapt and combine both Jonouchi arcs concerning Hirotani, which is weird because the first one happens around here but the second one happens right before the Bakura arc and doesn't really work combined.

It isn't even a bad adaptation, but certainly much more goofier and over the top with the Yo-yo's and so (Honda was not supposed to be even there) ... I also did not like the first arc being cut out because it served to develop further Yugi and Jonouchi's friendship. Here it just feels shallow and corny.

I don't really like this one. Still serviceable but the weird placing and adapting ruins it. The manga did them much better. I'm guessing they just wanted to move on with them to go do more Duel Monsters?

KINO, everything is just too much and exactly what i expected from a "king of game" manga.
It's impressive how the author could force the duel monster part when it was the worst chapter, guess he alway wanted to make one and it paid off in the end, but meh so far.
