Round 4: Poll 2

Propaganda under the cut

Pairing 1: Twistedshipping (Shadi/Maximillon Pegasus | Pegasus J. Crawford)

Propaganda: Shadi is a grief stricken spirit with no one to talk to and Pegasus is a lonely rich boy with time & money but no one to share it with. They've both suffered heavy loss and mad terrible decisions as a result. They've hurt people and are both people who are hurting. But they wear it differently; no one can see Shadi unless he allows it but Pegasus is a public figure. He must be seen, though no one can get close without his permission. The roles they play are so important to the people who the roles serve and yet they're always at a distance from the comfort of the people. All that to say, they should get to hug and be happy. Also the fan art is just beautiful. | Pegasus lamented how his heart was like the empty canvas he toted around half the world longing to fill, then immediately painted a portrait of Shadi and hung it up next to the portrait of his deceased wife. Pegasus clearly idolized Shadi for giving him the Millennium Eye, even though Shadi showed little regard for him, probably thinking of Pegasus as just another necessary step in moving fate along. I think it’s immensely interesting to explore how they both might grow around each other, and how they might recontextualize their shared past after spending more time together. Pegasus would start to see Shadi with something other than blinding adoration, and Shadi would recognize and appreciate Pegasus as a person and not a pawn. The ship has plenty of angst, but room for hurt/comfort and character exploration. And they both at some point, in Yugioh R and Dark Side of Dimensions, adopted a bunch of orphans and took on the role of a father figure; so there’s more fluffy AU potential, too.

Pairing 1: Buddyshipping (Jounouchi Katsuya | Joey Wheeler/Hiroto Honda | Tristan Taylor )

Propaganda: honda and jounouchi are the epitome of “idiot x idiot” they’re stupid but most importantly they’re stupid TOGETHER | They bicker like an old married couple and they're CONSTANTLY huggung/romatically fistfight/basically putting their hands all over each other. they are huge goofs.

Now, let’s keep things civil. This is a silly poll where we can share why we love our overlooked ships. There’s no need to be nasty to prove your point. Bashers will be banished to the Shadow Realm.

had to do a sketch of them after reading @the-pigeon-queen's really great fics 'Only Ghosts' and 'Self Reflections' :-)

[p1xel-bee]

Decided to look through the masterlist of pairing names and they have ship names for bitches who've literally never spoken once or even seen eachother but don't have one for my OTP (cecelia/pegasus/shadi)

I should make my own ship name for them

I mean

No one can stop me-

Me trying to figure out what vauge (adjective)shipping ship name is which yugioh ship so I can make my valentines day art

[harpyladyval]

Shadi: *minding his own business*

....

*for once*

Pegasus: *walking by, carrying Yugi under his arm.*

Shadi: what are you doing?

Pegasus: oh don't mind me, I'm just putting both of my arch enemies into this corner~

*sets Yugi down next to Seto*

Yugi: *notices Seto*

*cue that one manga panel where he's blushing as Kaiba lands on DK*

Shadi: .... *sighs* leave the reincarnatees alone.

Pegasus: ohoho, you know I won't~

twistedshipping Yours, Mine, and Ours-esque romcom au with dsod shadi and ygo r pegasus

[thedorkmagiciangirl]

Results: Wishshipping is by FAR a more popular pairing than i anticipated. *strips of its rarepair badge* you've graduated. you don't get to be a rarepair anymore. Be free.

In all seriousness, where have all the wishshipping fans been hiding in this fandom? i didnt see u guys. where have you been?

In hindsight, I should have just picked a character and then polled for rarepairs involving them. That would have been more manageable.

Ships mentioned in the notes:

Snareshipping (Jonouchi x Otogi), Deathshipping (Yami Malik x Bakura), Twistedshipping (Shadi x Pegasus), Yugi x Serenity, Occultshipping (Yami Bakura x Bonz/Ghost), Kaiba x Serenity, Casteshipping (Thief King x Atem), Dark Magician x Yugi, Compass shipping (Ishizu x Dark Bakura), Mokuba x Sera, Yugi x Anzu x Jonouchi x Ryou, Ishizu/Kisara, Mai/Kisara, Mahaad/Ryou, Mahaad/Kisara, Mahaad/Atem/Seth, Otogi/Honda, Redeyeshipping (Jonouchi x Dinosaur Ryuuzaki), Devotionshipping (Joey x Anzu), Encourageshipping (which i think is Anzu/Yugi/Dark Yugi), Apprenticeshipping (Mana x Mahado), Euroshipping (Kaiba x Ryou), Fragileshipping (Yami Yugi x Ryou Bakura), Stubbornshipping (Kaiba x Honda), Rescueshipping (Kisara x Serenity), Jiishipping (Arthur x Solomon Mutou), Silentshipping (Seto x Serenity), Azureshipping (Seto x Tea), Vaseshipping (Mana x Atem), Protectshipping (Tristan x Bakura), Yuumeishipping (All Yamis x Ryou, Malik, Yugi), Trapshipping (Dark Bakura x Dark Yugi x Yugi x Bakura), Conspireshipping (Dark Malik x Dark Bakura x Bakura x Malik), Dark Malik x Dark Bakura x Bakura x Malik x Kaiba, Danceshipping (Mai x Tea), Powershipping (Seto x Malik), Hostshipping (Tea x Ryou Bakura), Guardshipping (Roland x Kaiba), Mahad x Seto Kaiba (not priest Set), Kaiba x Yugi x Kisara, Angstshipping (Marik x Bakura), Flareshipping (Atem x Yugi x Kaiba), Trustshipping (Seto x Ishizu), Scandalshipping (Priest Seto x Pharaoh Atem), DnDshipping (Otogi x Kaiba), Feathershipping (Yami Yugi x Yugi x Jonouchi), the polycule in TPOFATGIF, Outcastshipping (Kisara x Thief King Bakura), Anzu/Mana, Coinshipping (Anzu/Miho), Mako/Yugi, Stageshipping (I'm unfamiliar with the name of this one, tbh), Jeershipping (Joey/Valon), Yami Bakura/Mako Tsunami), Ettushipping (Joey x Seto x Mai), Teaseshipping (Seto x Joey x Bakura), Seto x Amelda, Carryshipping (Ryo x Joey x Tristan).

Pay no mind to me swapping between American and Japanese names in that list at will.

I have listed out basically all the ships written in, so I would like to add a disclaimer that I myself do not claim the above ships are rare. They were simply what was written in the tags and notes as votes.

Also there is a lot more disagreement about what constitutes a rare pair than you'd think based off of this feedback.

Of write-in votes I believe Deathshipping won, though it was hard to tally. Euroshipping also had a somewhat surprising number of write-ins. Those were the two written in most often.

Sorry if I didn't include your favorite rarepair on the list; limited space so I had to pick a few of admittedly my personal favorites.

So which rarepair do you think deserves more love in the yu-gi-oh fandom?

[ribbonstein]

i just caught up with @the-pigeon-queen‘s fic, only ghosts, and i think u all should simply read it thank u <3

[wizard-dracula]

Pairing 2: Nellshipping (Noah Kaiba/Amane Bakura)

Propaganda: Children of wealthy families who died in car related accidents!!

[yaoiprotagonist]

The fact Shadi is shipped with both Cyndia and Pegasus (by different people) will NEVER not be funny to me idc…
