So...how is Cartoon Network planning on marketing this when they already have a TCG show? Anyone remember Duel Masters? The anime based on Magic the Gathering rules that has all the rewritten American jokes in it? It'll be interesting if Yu-Gi-Oh GX goes on Toonami...

Wait! It can run uncut on Adult Swim! Let's start a petition! Laughing

Techincally, they had 2, and this is an extension of the second one. You know, the one that was the merchanising juggernaut.

Canadians are lucky. Their hate can actually fester before the Americans'. Normally it's vice versa.

Of course, anyone who's festering hate towards a kids show is an idiot. (I have issues with the Continuity people, but that won't bother me much)

So Naruto gets pushed back a week so CN can have the dub world debut, and in exchange we get YGO GX a month early.

Whoopee.

Oh, I forgot that CN was showing reruns of Yu-Gi-Oh. I can't keep track of all the stuff they pull on actual Cartoon Network. I turn it on and see cartoons I've never heard of before that don't look that interesting.
