This is part 1, covering all of the pre-Duelist Kingdom chapters of the manga (1-59).  For this portion of the manga, there are two anime adaptations: the “season 0″ first series anime produced by Toei Animation (henceforth be referred to as the Toei Anime), and the “Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters” second series anime produced by Nihon Ad Systems and Studio Gallop (henceforth be referred to as the Duel Monsters Anime)

This project was influenced by the website Kanzenshuu, which lists which episodes of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z correspond to the Dragon Ball manga and vice-versa.

I made this blog a few years ago but really dropped the ball on my original plans for comparing the manga and anime because of my utter lack of an ability to focus on a large-scale project, so instead I’m going to just make more freeform small-scale posts like this.
