I know we all hate how Atem was back for like two seconds and he didn’t even say anything but gosh he looks gorgeous in this style and I adore this shot.
I love how tender this shot is. Yes Atem doesn’t say anything in this shot but the way he reaches across and grips the chain you can tell he’s remembering what it felt like to share a vessel with Yugi and just this quiet affection of being with his best friend again even though it’s just a second. Remembering how for Yugi and himself the chain was a symbol of their unbreakable bond because if you remember at the end of the movie the puzzle is back on the leather cord Atem wears when he was pharaoh. It’s just such a beautiful and powerful shot.
Departure from normal posting to show y’all this part from “Transcend Game”, a short two part manga set not long before the events of DSOD (linking the classic manga to the movie)
A little dsod kaiba screenshot redraw to celebrate the anniversary 🥂 I'm a little late bc uni (and gacha game grind) but this is one of my fav scenes <3
