You're so right dude

If Yugioh won't do it, I will

CW Stitches and mild blood!

First we gotta get Yusei out of that black shirt, because a tight tank top is no good for fresh stitches and black clothes won't show blood!

Jack feels guilty so he's lashing out fhsjdfhs

SO ARE WE GONNA TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT JACK ATLAS PUNCHES YUSEI RIGHT AFTER HE'S RECOVERING FROM SURGERY AFTER HIS FIGHT WITH KALIN. RIGHT IN THE GUT. WHERE HE HAD SURGERY.

it's all coming together

When fic authors describe Jonouchi Katsuya's hair as dyed.

I get it, okay?

I get that usually you can find a blond delinquent in Japanese media and assume that the hair dying is an artifact of that. But we see that he's been blond since he was a kid, he wasn't rebelliously dying his hair to look like a thug when he was eight.

AND it's thematic okay!

People can assume Jou has dyed his hair and that changes their perceptions of him--they say ah he must be a violent thug, he's performing the Violent Thug Indicators. But he's not, and if he had been dying his hair when he was in the gang I think he would have stopped sometime after becoming friends with Yugi, as a physical demonstration of how he's leaving his violent past behind him.

The blond hair is just another way to indicate what assumptions people make about him not knowing the truth behind them.

For example blond hair = thug but really he's just half American and the hair is natural.

In duelist kingdom he really wants the money and people assume it's because he's poor and wants to spend it on getting cool stuff, but actually it's because his sister needs a surgery.

People choose Jou to duel because they believe he's an idiot and they can manipulate and beat him easily, and he is dumb and easily manipulated but also constantly surpassing people's expectations.

We have always existed, and we always will.

i saw a youtube thumbnail that made me mad the other day and i felt compelled to create this image

we need more divorcebaiting. how strongly can canon imply (without technically outright stating) that these two characters are bitterly, acrimoniously divorced? essential we explore this

im 30 episodes into 5ds and yusei fudo is the love of my life hes my girlfriend

I thought it would be funny to make this a half-assed transparent so Yami Bakura could walk dramatically into more places. take it and go forth he could now be anywhere. a hot topic. an unsupervised butcher shop. the men's room at a mindless self indulgence concert. other likely places for yami bakura to be.
