Probably ain’t gonna post art today so have my opinion on Zexal characters!!;

(All gifs ain’t mine btw, found them online or in the gifs sections. The opinions are mine though.)

Starting with Yuma Tsukumo!

I relate to this duel obsessed middle schooler so much!! Honestly if Shark wasn’t a character I feel like Yuma would be my kin/comfort character, which would be scary lmao. He’s forgetful, only talks about dueling (and his dad), and from what I can tell cares about others in the weirdest ways! I love him! I want him on my shelf.

——

Okay Okay next up Is Tori Medows!

She’s cute but I think she’d be better written if they explored her more. All she is the self interest with some trauma later on (from what I’ve seen from spoilers), but I feel like she’s just empty other than some smiles and tears. I do like her Duel World Carnival outfit but that’s about all

——

Caswell Francis!!! Ehehe

Caswell grew on me to be honest, I thought he was a bit weird and pushy, especially when it came to the whole “You won’t duel Shark without Numbers.” But after the battle royal with Quattro I felt so sad and upset that his arm got broke, I just wanted to be there for him. Poor kid tbh. I would love for him to be my friend.

——

Now we gots Bronk Stone.

I dunno how to feel about Bronk, I like his deck though. His duel with Number 96 HAS to be one of my favorites so far! The friendship with Yuma is typical for anime I’d say, but sometimes Bronk and Yuma go too far with each other. I feel like Bronk is a good character and should stick around.

——

Cathy Katherine!!!! YAYAYAYAYAY

I LOVE Cathy, I Live Laugh Love this cat girl. At first I thought “Why is there a neko in my Yugioh, couldn’t she just be human?” But NO I was simply WRONG! I love cats, they are my best friend, and they are also Cathy’s. I love her story so far and seeing her become who she is, from a quiet shy girl to an excellent exciting person. (She’s just like me frfr)

——

Flip Turner

(I couldn’t find a gif), I don’t like flip, I’ll be honest. He’s annoying and scummy. He said he’s gonna change for the better then turns around and sells fake heart pieces. Yuma should’ve dropped this guy before even knowing him tbh.

——

Last but not least… Astral!!

He is so beautiful and elegant, super funny too! He’s been the most fun character to write, ever. Like a stupid cat. I wish he was my, ‘best friend from Astral world that was a gift from my dad that helps me duel’.

____💚💚____

That’s it from me! Thanks for listening, I may do a part two or something I dunno. I’m just bored and have writers block/artists block. Sorry to bother, thanks for listening.

Yuma Tsukumo for headcanons? :3

This’ll be a fun one!!!!

Yuma is cis and pansexual. He purely has no preference for gender, he sees pretty person, he must kiss NOW.

However he’s all confident around guys, and would lowkey walk up to a guy and tell him he wants to kiss him on his hot mouth if he felt so moved. But with girls he gets all blushy and lost for words. Girls r so pretty!!!!

Treys really the prettiest girl he’s seen (also trey is a girl because I SAID SO transfem trey is the best headcanon!!!!) and like. He gets weak in the KNEES when he sees her. So pretty…

But going back to the gender preference thing, I’d like to think that even though Yuma likes girls he has a thing for girls who are masculine. (Who may or may not carry a sword)

Proud furry. Cathy got him irreversibly addicted to Warrior Cats and it changed him SO BADLY. They LARP every now and then. He kins Firestar

Yuma has ADHD and Autism. You can look at me in the face and tell me he doesn’t. He is FILLED with the tism. Him and Trey infodump to each other all the damn TIME

Alright so my friend made up this headcanon but Yuma is also a SoundCloud rapper. The closest thing we can get to what Yumas music sounds like is literally anything made by Yuno Miles. Take that as you will. He tried to sell his mixtape at school but got told to kill himself MULTIPLE TIMES 😭😭😭

He has freckles. He’s always out in the sun so please give him some!! Yuma also has a bunch of scars and scrapes from his duels, I mean he was literally getting blown back and in his duel with Trey when she used the crest power she literally had him fall through the GROUND??? OUCH????

Yuma doesn’t fancy himself much of a cook but he likes to bake with Trey a lot, even though he keeps on trying to eat the baking soda and other raw ingredients-

Avid fortnite player, he spent his last paycheck on Vbucks and Trey refuses to spot him any more cash until he gets his shit together

Please kiss him. Please hug him. Please tell him he’s a good boy and embrace him. Yumas literally like a dog HE LIVES off of affection and praise

Yuma doesn’t fancy himself much of a reader but I think he’d be really in YA romance novels about cute fluffy couples that aren’t essentially romanticized abuse of power/authority. But he’ll DENY DENY DENY when you catch him reading one. That’s like, so girly. He’d never read one!

Im probably missing a few but I’ll add some more later!!

Psychic Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters Ranked In Terms of Relative Strength

Qualifications to be considered “psychic”

human

alive

innate powers or learned knowledge

canonical evidence to suggest extra-sensory perceptions and phenomena

Breakdown of Categories

Physical: affects the world around them e.g pyromancers/pyrokinetic characters, characters who can bring Duel Monsters to life

Mental: fortune tellers, future seers, telepathics, affects communication and communication of ideas

Spiritual: inter-dimensional sensory or knowledge, can hear Duel monsters,

I find it interesting that all of the ‘strongest’ characters are female and young girls

I am also willing to debate or explain certain rankings.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Spirit Companions, Ranked

As I’ve been watching Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS, I’ve been thinking a lot about how characters like Ai are represented and used within the franchise. For lack of a better term, these spirit companions show up in each Yu-Gi-Oh! series as a guide for the protagonist, someone they can talk to and confer with in and out of duels. They play a slightly different role than the main character’s group of friends, often sharing a mental or spiritual connection that elevates their relationship to something closer to kin. Ai is one of the most active deuteragonists throughout the franchise, and so I wanted to take a look at all six of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series and talk about how they play into the story and whether their inclusion helps to further the themes of the series.

6. The Crimson Dragon, from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s

The Crimson Dragon is a being made of sacred fire that, along with the six legendary dragons (the titular 5 D’s), fought against the evil Earthbound Immortals and sealed them in the Nazca Lines. He is the source of all the main characters’ powers, which include energy manipulation, psychic powers, and creating miracles. Although he is the reason the cast gathered together and were able to become a team, the Crimson Dragon otherwise only appears when the plot demands it.

When I first started thinking about this list, I wasn’t even sure if 5D’s had a spirit companion of some kind. It’s really downplayed within the series, since all of the main characters have to share parts of the Crimson Dragon, and it doesn’t really play into the series outside of its role as a plot device. Unlike the other characters in this list, the Crimson Dragon doesn’t talk or interact with the cast, acting more like a guardian than a proper character. There’s no personality there and nothing to real talk about, besides it being kind of a lame design for a dragon.

5. Yubel, from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX

Yubel is sort of a weird case compared to the rest of the characters on this list, since her first appearance is over halfway through the series as an antagonist for Jaden. She was originally a magical guardian meant to protect an individual known as the Supreme King, who wielded the power of Gentle Darkness. Thousands of years after this pact was made, her spirit was placed into a Duel Monsters card, and eventually the card ended up in the hands of Jaden. As it happens, Jaden is a descendant of the Supreme King, and so the spirit within the Yubel card promised to protect Jaden from any and all threats. Unfortunately, Yubel considered any sort of friendship with others as a threat to their relationship, and so everyone who dueled Jaden fell into a coma. In the hopes of helping her find the “power of justice”, Jaden sent the Yubel card into space in a KaibaCorp satellite, but she ended up encountering The Light of Destruction which only corrupted her further. Eventually the satellite crashed back onto Earth and Yubel was freed, allowing her to take revenge against Jaden for betraying her. She does this by torturing all of his friends via Shadow Duels and eventually doing the same to Jaden, equating their shared pain as a sort of love. But, thanks to Jaden’s incredibly large heart, he is able to eventually forgive Yubel and accept her, which allows the two of them to fuse together and free Yubel from The Light of Destruction.

I’ve never really been able to come to terms with Yubel as a spirit companion. She’s an extremely out-of-place element in the otherwise goofy series, to an uncomfortable extent. Between her weird sadomasochism fetish and her overly possessive relationship with Jaden, the whole thing comes off as a strange thing for a kid’s show to do. There’s no real conclusion that effectively explains why Jaden would suddenly forgive her outside of him being such a stand-up dude and destiny-bound to be with her. This is several steps above GX characters talking about “playing solitaire” with their favorite sexy cards from the classic memetic shared video, and I’ve always found it uncomfortable on reflection.

4. Astral, from Yu-Gi-Oh! ZeXal

Astral is an extra-terrestrial from the Astral World, which is a thinly-veiled sci-fi allegory for Heaven. He is initially sent to Earth in order to garner enough power to destroy the Barian World, which is a thinly-veiled sci-fi allegory for Hell, but is intercepted partway and attaches himself to Yuma Tsukumo, a third-rate duelist with big dreams. When he reaches Earth, Astral’s memories scatter in the form of 100 “Number” cards, and now he’ll need to help Yuma learn how to duel so that they can win back all of the Numbers and Astral can complete his mission.

Astral’s just a real weenie, and a pretty boring character overall. His only narrative purpose for a majority of the series is to bail Yuma out when he makes a bad play, and to talk about how weird human customs are compared to his pseudo-angel alien customs. And there was that one time Astral felt so betrayed when Yuma kept a secret from him that he went crazy and almost killed the both of them via a corrupted fusion. It’s nice that he’s part of the show from the beginning so the plot starts right away, but that ends up leading to another problem, thanks to the Number card gimmick. Because only Number cards can destroy other Number cards in a duel, the way that he’s integrated ends up making almost every duel go the exact same way, all the way up to the very end of the series.

3. Yuto, from Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V

Yuto is one of three characters from an alternate dimension, called the Xyz Dimension, that shares the same look and build of protagonist Yuya Sakaki, who is from the Standard Dimension. Initially believed to be a villain, the truth is eventually revealed that he comes from a world that was decimated by an army from another alternate dimension, the Fusion Dimension, and he’s come to the Standard Dimension to get his revenge on the Fusion invaders. Although he ends up dying in a duel, his soul fuses with Yuya’s, and so he begins to explain more about this dimensional war to Yuya, in the hopes that Yuya can succeed where he failed in stopping the Fusion forces.

Yuto isn’t the most exciting or memorable companion, but I think he’s ultimately one of the ones that was best integrated within his franchise. From his original role as an uneasy antagonist to his revival as a spirit companion for Yuya, he consistently helped push the story forward and provide background information on the main conflict as it became important, which helped further to expand the world and the narrative as a whole. While I think all of the Yuya clones in Arc-V ultimately contributed to the story, Yuto was the one who solidified how the series was going to develop.

His Phantom Knights deck is also cool as hell.

2. Atem/Pharaoh, from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters

Atem is the spirit of a pharaoh who ruled in ancient Egypt, remembered for stopping a great catastrophe that threatened the future of the entire world. His soul was sealed away in one of the Millennium Items, a set of ancient artifacts that granted great powers to their wielders, and locked away his memories so that they couldn’t be used to threaten the world ever again. Thousands of years later, after his grandfather excavated the Millennium Puzzle, Yugi Moto completed the puzzle, and the pharaoh’s soul was fused into Yugi’s body. Although their relationship was shaky at the beginning as they learned how to handle their shared body, eventually the two were able to work together to help the pharaoh recover his memories and pass on to the next life.

Atem, the OG companion and (in)arguably a more relevant character than Yugi after the first season. While in some ways he stole the spotlight whenever arcs weren’t directly centered on the pharaoh, his mysterious connection to the game of Duel Monsters and the expansive world of Yu-Gi-Oh! was interesting to watch develop and grow over the series. He definitely has the best rapport with his series’ cast, and I like the way the relationship between Atem and Yugi was built up, all the way to the end. The original series was really well connected, and the bond between Atem and Yugi was a big part of that.

1. Ai, from Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS

Ai is an Ignis-class artificial intelligence, meaning that he has free will, and he lived along with other Ignis AIs in a digital world called the Cyverse. After a shadow organization known as the Knights of Hanoi tried to capture the Cyverse and its power, Ignis was able to steal information from the Cyverse and hide its data within his AI body. Since then, he’s been hunted by the Knights of Hanoi, as well as SOL Technologies, a company that had used the Cyverse to power its virtual reality Duel Monsters program, VRAINS. After a widescale attack on VRAINS by the Knights of Hanoi, the hacker protagonist of the series Yusaku Fujiki was able to capture Ai, only knowing that he would act as a trump card during his fights against the Knights of Hanoi. So begins the shaky friendship of Yusaku and Ai.

I guess this is a little unfair since the series isn’t over, and the true nature of this character has yet to be revealed, and he’s an AI, but Ai has been the only source of whimsy in a series that otherwise lacks it. VRAINS is a very self-serious series with some heavy themes and crushing implications within its narrative, and Ai plays an important role to help keep the series fun with his flippant attitude, providing some well-timed bits of comedy. He’s very much the comic to Yusaku’s straight man, creating this fun dynamic between the two of them, both in and out of duels. Ai is definitely the most like a mascot of any character in this list, as a lot of his interaction with the world is through exaggerated reactions and mischief that Yu-Gi-Oh! as a franchise has never really leaned into. I also think even the way he interacts with Yusaku within duels is interesting, since granting Playmaker the ability to pull new cards from raw data storms helps keep the main character’s deck fresh and exciting from duel to duel.
