#ygo protagonists

[zarc-yuuya]

Judai: hey guys, have you ever noticed how all of our antagonists and villains always called us by our full name?

Yuya: hmm...now that you mentioned it...they always like for me "Sakaki Yuya"~...in those undertaker tone.

Yuma: I know right?!! Just so they look menacing.

Atem: honestly it always works...well for Yugi and the gang. I don't think they can sound menacing enough if they try saying my name.

Yusei: Atem, your appearance alone is already menacing enough to them.

....

Judai: ((Thank god he is on our side..))

why is the pharaoh treated as dm’s protagonist on equal terms with yugi, while all the time i see the protagonist of zexal named as only yuma, not yuma and astral? (kudos to duel links btw, they did a great job in putting them as one playable character). i know the two yugi’s spent time in one headspace and the pharaoh was actually the one doing stuff most of the screen time, but astral deserves to be enlisted as a full-rights protagonist alongside yuma and you can’t change my mind.

I've not watched Vrains but seeing you post about it makes my day every time. Every new Yusaku autism-core post I see I grin and say "yeeeeees"

Every time I think yugioh can't make a more autism protagonist, they delight in proving me wrong.

I know technically Yusaku's obsession with calming himself down by listing things in threes is because of his backstory, but also. Come on. No neurotypical would talk like this while trying to call an ambulance. When he first did it, I started happy stimming so hard. A MAIN CHARACTER! WITH ARITHMOMANIA!!!

His facial animation is stunning. I was so impressed by how far 5Ds got with having a character with limited expressiveness, and VRAINS just keeps raising the bar for me. Animated characters who don't smile/emote very much but still have unique facial animation while still having a Resting B#$% Face my BELOVED

Look at him! I'm obsessed!

He canonically has insomnia related to his ptsd. His best friends drag him for having zero social skills. AI REFERS TO HIM AS HAVING "THE EMPATHY OF A MOLLUSK."

He will just nope out on conversations midway through and I will never stop cheering about it.

All the yugioh protagonists are extremely autism, but Yusaku is a canonically compulsive, unemotive, low-empathy, zero social skills autistic and STILL THE HEROIC MAIN CHARACTER and I am LIVING FOR IT.

Alito & Nail

Since working on the Yugas takes quite some time, I like to draw my favorite Zexal and Sevens characters in the meantime

Alito being a short king and Nail being super tall is something funny to think about

CHIBIS!!!

Theodore: What is scarier? Yusaku becoming a bad guy or-

Everyone: Yusaku being Evil.

Ryoken: Respectfully, I would be more terrified in my life if he became evil for an hour than the end of the world.

Skye: Are you kidding? Him being evil for that long will be the end of the world.

Theodore: I do not blame y'all like who is stopping that man?

Kolter: Absolutely no one. We can jump him and he will kick our asses.

Ryoken: I am pretty sure that we can do that now and we will still lose.

Ai: If that man ever becomes evil we are cooked. We are doomed.

Soooo in the last couple of months I have been having a Yugioh obsession HEHEHE

Used to watch the anime a lot as a kid, and recently I revisited it a bit owo I also started collecting ygo cards again too! And I have been playing a lot of master duel aswell <w<

Basicaly, Im reliving a part of my childhood haha.. man, for awhile I had forgoten all about yugioh, like a compressed memory.. But anyway, here he is, the pharaoh himself :D I wanted to draw somehting else ygo related actualy, which featured Yami Yugi, but.. it would take awhile to finish so, I made somehting simple for now!

I will say, his arms and fingers look kinda shitty ngl twt and in general I wish I added abit more detail on some parts, but I think its not too bad for my 1st time drawign him ^^;

Also, I wanna take a moment to aknowledge the unfortnate passing of Kazuki Takahashi, the creator of Yugioh who passed away in July of 2022, may he rest in peace :(

Hope oyu guys liked it, and if you like ygo or are somewhat familiar with it, who is your favevourite monster? Or monsters if there are more than one? ówo would love to hear your oppinions! ^^

1000% AGREED

ive had this zexal ii clip saved for like five months now and forgot to post it because every time i even THINK about it i get a little sick in the head. i get a little 'gotta pace around my room thinking about this.' like YES the sub version of this scene spun me around in the fuckin dryer at top speed too but I WILL FIGHT FOR THE ZEXAL DUB. AND SAY that this goofyass dub still picked me up and threw me directly into a middle school yaoi bear trap with this scene, and i aint ever gettin out i fear!!!! dont think i'll be escaping the foilship allegations this time boys!!!! i must admit i quite like them!!!!

"our worlds need more of you, and less of me" like good GOD!!!!! ALRIGHT!!!! just forever thinking about an unstoppable force (yuma tsukumo's endless well of empathy and kindness and forgiveness) (and love and love and so much love) making an immoveable object moveable. thinking about vector making the active decision to do one (1) thing for the benefit of someone else even if it kills him. THINKING ABOUT THE TEARS. OK COOL!!! TOP YUGIOH MOMENTS IM NORMAL ABOUT (LYING.)🥕

@ygoc-week day 5 is swap, so let’s swap to talking about another OC for a bit!

YU-GI-OH! DM — ISABELLA “IZZ” ROOKE

Oh Izz. Izz baby. My girl :3c She's the main character of a DM alternate fic called Soul Release, named after a card that's very important to her. She survived a tragic pileup that killed her entire family. Unbeknownst to her, this event tied her to a freshly-born reincarnation of Anubis named Rin in this verse.

This version of DM also includes a faction of worshippers of Apophis because of the existence of The Prophet of Apophis, a strong leader and manipulator… as cult leaders tend to be.

Aigami/Diva also appears earlier in this story rather than being a post-canon aspect; we get a Kisara reincarnation named Sapha, a German TCG champion; and Battle City gets a top 16 on the blimp with these three OCs especially mixing things up via their being chosen by the Wickeds.

I say “chosen,” but both Yami Bakura/Zorc and Rin/Anubis work together to create them to oppose the Egyptian gods. Yami B and Rin have a… working relationship, very much rooted in “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” They both strive for the pharaoh’s downfall. Rin chooses Avatar for herself while Yami B takes Wicked Dreadroot. Then Prophet blows up the museum, catching Yami B in the blast, and steals it for himself. Rin gives Eraser to Izz because she sees Izz as a puppet Rin can coerce to do her bidding anytime, including opposing the pharaoh.

Izz moves to Yugi and co’s school. She’s fairly distant from everyone in her life because of the tragedy, but they are kind to her and she is kind in turn. She wins local tournaments and tops regionals because, in order to hide from grief, she fixates on Duel Monsters deckbuilding and ratios and meta etc. This is enough to earn her a Duelist Kingdom invite. Overall, she’s an anxious mess who needs a hug and isn’t sure how to properly interact with other people anymore. She feels like a cataclysm waiting to happen again and again.

Now the elephant in the room! You see her with the Pyramid of Light. Rin approaches Izz after her first regional win. Izz is weak at the knees for beautiful women (and men—everyone is a bi disaster, remember?). Rin explains she hosted the tournament and forgot about a particular prize. She compliments Izz’s dueling and gifts her the Pyramid of Light, saying she’d like to get to know her better. Izz is flabbergasted and accepts the Pyramid, asking only what it is. Rin only describes it as valuable jewelry and recommends Izz keep it on her person.

The iridescent swirls in the pyramid’s sky blue are mesmerizing to Izz, and staring at it provides an indescribable comfort… and focal point to keep her grounded/stop her out of body experiences such that she does indeed wear it constantly

This has an unintended side effect

See, Izz wears a necklace (in the artwork, matches Dark Magician Girl’s pendant) that just so happens to contain the ancient and slumbering spirit of Mana. Being so close to the dark energy of the Pyramid of Light stirs her, and she becomes Izz’s ghost like companion similar to the pharaoh and Yugi. Mana is always trying to be a positive influence on Izz where Rin is like the devil on her shoulder. Izz often makes mistakes and trusts the wrong people, hurting her friendships with the gang and repairing them again.

Her using Wicked Dreadroot however… that one will certainly be difficult to come back from.

And as for pairings, I’m undecided and going so many directions! I would probably have to write it all out.

(but my heart says fellow orphan Seto Kaiba if Izz can ever look away from all the other gorgeous gorgeous guys and gals) (Rin can’t stop rizzing her up) (y’all just WAIT until she meets Ishizu)

At some point, I went from "hide the hands, they're hard and I don't want to draw them" to "I need to draw more hands, I need to include a hand in this picture somehow."
