Även om det rör sig om den amerikanska versionen från Viz så tror jag inte den är så censurerad i förhållande till den japanska; se t.ex.
denna sida där den amerikanske redaktören Jason Thompson berättar som sina erfarenheter från utgivningen:
Citat:
Yes, I admit it; editing Yu-Gi-Oh! (the whole series) was fun. Although the American edition of the manga was basically just the appendage of an enormous merchandising phenomenon, the Viz edition was almost unchanged from the Japanese original. As with Dragon Ball Z, the anime had been translated first and the licensing wasn't entirely coordinated, so I got to use a lot of the original manga character names and keep it more or less violent and gory.
