@zexalmonth day 7:

E for Enemy

My favorite antagonist in Zexal is Number 96, absolutely Number 96. He is also my favorite character after Astral.

He is a chaotic force that only answers to himself, and I adore him.

He is a great foil to Astral, and I really like how, even if he is a sort of dark version of Astral, his design is still very recognizable: his expressions, his gestures, his voice are his own and very detached from Astral.

Every episode where he appears had become one of my favorites, and I will always be sad that he had appeared in so few episodes.

ROUND 1 SIDE B MATCH 1 MISTY LOLA/TREDWELL MODEL AND MEMBER OF THE DARKSIGNERS VS NUMBER 96 BLACK/DARK MIST CHAOTIC COUNTERPART TO ASTRAL

[cosmicellis]

Who dared to make him wear it lol

[twinkleember]

Something that would have played out way in the future in Card Keepers AU.

Mist would be using a human disguise. Since you know. Naked ghost is not really common. Snow was going to return home back to astral world on her own, but Mist insists on joining her on her travels to the temple. Sneakily his way of some sort of care. Sorta.

A friend on Insta made me remember that I haven't posted this anywhere, so here it is now.

I ended up making a Dragon!Dark Mist before Dragon!Astral even though it all started from the latter design idea. Maybe I'll draw him too, with Yuma as his rider or without him.

ZEXAL MONTH - WEEK 2 DAY 1

Prompt: C for Chaos

I wanted to finish this yesterday night, but I fell asleep while working on it 😅😆

Anyway, the concept of Chaos in Zexal has a more complex meaning than what I chose to draw for it, but since Black Mist considers itself representative of that concept, I decided to draw that monster (also bc this was my first time ever drawing it and wanted to try something I've never tried before)

Despite it being my first time drawing Black Mist, I think it turned out pretty good (thank you for existing simmetry tool 😌)

Also, I used a brush I downloaded last year for drawing lightnings in a different way and so I could draw that purple substance in Black Misty's body giving it a pretty cool effect 😄

Edgelord of the Day #96:

Number 96

From: Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL

[yuma-tsukumo]

[pallotdip]

you’re no longer needed.

[cosmicellis]

Do not be fooled by his calm apperance

He is plotting

[marblesmind]

For the yugioh character meme: Number 96!

Why I like them/why I don’t

Dark Mist is one of the characters who I am so sad didn’t get more screen time. He had an awesome debut and established himself as a threat immediately by taking Yuma hostage but then he’s just stuck in the key a while. He appears a bit but really doesn’t do much important stuff until his team up with Vector in season 3. BUT HES STILL SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He’s a number and he’s completely intelligent which literally no other number has shown the capacity to be I’d argue that it’s not cause he’s fused with Astral, he still planned a way to get into Yuma’s deck. The intelligence could come from the fact that he’s part Don Thousand and speaking of which wow do I wish that was expanded on more. Imagine being a fusion of two completely opposite people one of which is meant to destroy the other, thats an identity crisis just waiting to happen.

To conclude I guess I just like him cause he has so much potential for cool stuff

What I like about their appearance

*deep breath* ok this guys got a lot of appearances and I have varying opinions on them so this is gonna be my unofficial 96 forms ranking post in order of appearence

Beast 96

We get this form for a grand total of one scene and it only exists so that Yuma will underestimate him further and let Dark Mist posses him. Pretty funny guy, I like the layering of the warm colors, it makes it look like he has a molten core

5/10 a bit to boring but its meant to be

Astral 2 evil edition

Very solid design, likely cause it’s basically Astrals design and that one’s good too. The red face detailing makes him feel more distinct and is also a nice nod too his monster form

8/10 I think it’s funny that he doesn’t get censored in every scene like Astral does

Monster 96

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm good. Zexal’s monster designs are always a treat and 96 is no exception. The sharp edges with the misty (haha) bits connecting them gives it a very cool haunted armor look and the flaming eyes are a nice pop of color.

10/10 absolutely sick

Barian powerup form

Oh god oh no oh fuck oh god. All good things must come to an end and 96’s design streak comes to a screeching grotesque ugly as all sin halt. This design is a crime for many reasons but I’ll go one at a time. First off, WHY IS HE FLESHY??? I know its a thing for yugioh villians to have theyre veins poke out when they get extra evil but 96 is a combination of Astral and Don Thousand, arguably two of the more ethereal looking designs. It feels like they tried to mash Don Thousand, Vector, and Monster 96 all into one design and then failed horribly. The flesh boots and shoulder pads are meant to look like his monster design but it lacks the sharpness that made the original work. Theres also a bunch of ripple things? Why. I dont like them. He also just copied Vectors wings but they just look out of place. And lastly the purple lipstick that would be a cool element but with everything combined and Dr Fakers haircut makes him look like a clown. Rant over. Sorry.

0/10 I’m glad he exploded

Corpse puppet

Ok this one shreds actually. I actually think this is one of 96’s coolest designs and criminally underrated (then again when is he not) it’s a pretty fucked up parallel seeing as they both died, Astral got brought back by Yuma and meanwhile Dark Mist is having his corpse tossed around and repeatedly destroyed by Vector.

10/10 rad as all hell best creepy puppet in the show just too bad he’s a personality less husk

Do I prefer their dub names or original names?

Dark Mist vs Black Mist, they mean almost the same thing but I prefer Dark Mist cause it’s what I’m used too

OTP/NOTP/OT3

I honestly don’t think he should be dating anyone at all. He should be embezzling government funds and standing ominously in dark alleyways a romance with him involved would make everyone in it worse

Favourite card they use

I feel like basically all his cards are bangers. Giant germs the guy who originally had him used? Iconic, weird, stuck in my head ever since I first saw the episode. His weird utensil themed monsters who literally came out of nowhere? Hilarious, cute, why do even have those my man aren’t you the devil? 96 himself? Fucking awesome looking in monster form

Favourite moment they were in

Both his duels were very good but his debut/the Yuma hostage situation holds a special place in my heart as the most violent tv show episode I could get my hands on as a kid <3

Least favourite moment

……….. barian powerup transformation *shudders*
