Uploaded again by littlekuriboh’s new account = CardGamesFTW
The series consisted of parodying the absurdity of the plot of Yu-Gi-Oh™ while using outside references. It’s dubbed brilliance gave great lulz from the weaboos to people who were basically unfamiliar with the show itself.
Even with the actual derivatives of other YouTube users attributing towards the show by making their own abridged spoof of an anime, the show has catchphrases of it’s own.
…In America!
Screw The Rules; I Have Money!
My Voice Gives Me Super Strength!
Attention Duelists! My hair…
Brooklyn Rage!
Nyeh!

Lost Untangled is an odd example as it is official, and not only a parody but also a recap. It also uses very little footage from the show.
