i think it's just because it's easier to draw.
they have a ******** of cardbacks in the show, so if they had to do that swirly thing
every time, it would be quite expensive.

It's because if they modeled them exactly like the real world versions/vice versa, then the entire show would be considered a commercial, and apparently you can't do that. S'why the front of the cards never show any text/have different art/different effects sometimes.

to everyone whos reading the other comment, this guy is right, been playing yugioh since 02(when it came to the usa) and its because of the commercial issues, +1 to patentoverwriten

It's a ******** cheaper and something about how they can't make the cards look exactly like their real-life versions or else the show technically becomes an advertisement.

Why wouldn't they be allowed to advertise their own product on the show?
User avatar #83 to #82 - motherfuckingkenji (01/10/2016) [-]
It's just that they can't legally air an advertisement and call it "children's programming".

Lazy animators?
#23 to #21 - talked (01/10/2016) [-]
And by lazy you mean realistic... To draw that swirly ass ******** every frame would be pretty ridiculous

He asked for a reason, I gave the only one I could think of. Also, drawing a few swirls isn't unrealistic to expect; animation gets a hell of a lot more detailed than that.

To draw it exactly in the same swirly pattern as the irl cards would be very tedious and unreasonably time consuming and that time would cost the production studio a ton of money

you obviously dont know what you're talking about

K. Have you ever seen a Disney movie? The genie sprouts like thirteen arms in one scene. They don't need to make it look exactly like the card, hell, a few swirly circles would do. But this is very low-detail animation.
#86 to #81 - digitalmasterx (01/10/2016) [-]
gee, highest level animation studio to a comparatively low level studio. movie, which consists of 1 episode, compared to an anime which has 500+ at this point...
genie shows a swirl or multitude of swirls once, The back of a yugioh card is shown literally a million times.

im glad you can make fair comparisons

I'm saying it's not unrealistic to put a handful of swirls on the back of a card. How the hell are there 500 episodes of the original Yugioh? It ran for less than four years. Were they producing an 2 episodes every 3 days? Also, a movie is 2 hours long vs about 20 minutes per episode, and is not in production for nearly as long as a show. I seriously doubt the cards are shown a million times, unless there actually are 500 episodes of the ORIGINAL show (which I seriously doubt) and they showed the cards 2,000 times per episode. I'm glad you can make accurate statements.
