Damnit, If What I Felt For This Show Isn't Love Then I Have No Idea What It Is!

damnit, if what I felt for this show isn't love then I have no idea what it is!

Season 0 has Atem killing a bunch of people and everybody is fine with that. Season 4 has him sacrificing a bunch of monsters (and accidently misplaced Yugi) and everybody''s mad at him.

Apparently, trading cards are where they draw the line

THIS!!!

Joey and Kaiba are the best literary parallels in yugioh and you can’t tell me they’re not because:

Older sibling entirely in charge of taking care of their (similarly aged) younger sibling because their parents didn’t do it

Desperate to be good at Duel Monsters to the point where they define their worth at least partially on it

Both can be seen as dueteragonists to Yugi’s protagonist

Trash talk a lot and are also saner about a lot of the weird fantasy stuff than Yugi, who has to live it in his head

Both definitely coping with inferiority complexes that Kaiba solves with an endless need for power and control and Joey solves with friendship and making a joke of everything including himself

And the way they go about life really shows this. Kaiba sees his life as a result of his controlled scenarios, manipulation, power gain through fear, and depending only on himself of course he’d be terrified to become joey who has none of those things of course he looks down of who joey has become. Joey feels like he got dealt a lousy hand but grew because of yugi and Tristan and tea of course he resents kaiba for acting as if your connections with people don’t matter of course he regards kaiba as a spoiled brat who doesn’t know his own privilege. They are two sides of the same damn coin and their stories could be reversed so easily it’s scary

Obelisk was a challenge but I wanted to complete all 3 god cards 🥲

Jou and his dragon will be the last one 💛

I read once somewhere (probably Reddit) that someone called this beautiful specimen "the unofficial femboy" and that bullshit stayed with me til this day!

A confused boy 🥴

Being multi shipper is one of the best things that had ever happened to me, ngl

never played a card game in my life

This is the kind of stuff I think about at 3 AM.

if a hamburger and a cheeseburger have a baby it most likely will have cheese on it because the cheese trait come from a dominant gene
