The Golden Gate Bridge shot is INCREDIBLE~
Clint Eastwood as “Dirty” Harry Callahan in Dirty Harry ( 1971).
Dir. Don Siegel. ( Eastwood directed his own stunts for the film).
Dick is Zoro~!!!
The Batman. Halloween costume.
I can’t deny these tag team episodes are fucking fun as fuck. Seeing Yami and Kaiba go off on each other is hilarious. Their facial expressions makes it too~!
Episode 71, part 1, this is the worst double-date I’ve ever seen!
It is also the worst double-date Yami and Seto have ever been on. I don’t think the fact that it’s the only double-date they’ve ever been on OR the fact that it’s not actually a date would prevent either of them from characterising it as “the worst double-date I’ve ever been on”, I mean, look:
That mutual awkward boredom in both their expressions is the very essence of terrible double-dates.
And then there’s these assholes.
Yeah.
So, Yami and Seto have been forced - by a string of embarrassingly overwrought and ostentatious kidnappings - to duel Tol and Smol Ghoul on top of this incredibly high skyscraper. When someone hits 0 LP, a BOMB explodes the glass under their feet, sending them hurtling down the centre of the architecturally-impressive skyscraper to their presumed deaths. Why not just use the bomb to kill them? That would be TOO FOOLPROOF.
(I’m pretty sure Kaiba’s the only one in actual danger of dying though, since the Ghouls - spoiler alert - have an escape built in, and Yami’s Puzzle is supposed to protect him from cowardly attempts on his life. So yeah, Kaiba’s the only one. Although, that presumes that he is not able to use that ridiculous coat as a parachute, and that is obviously a very flawed presumption.)
The Ghouls - you’ll never guess this - have a THEME to their deck that matches their villain personas, and their theme is masks. Janky, janky masks…
THIS mask has bolts for eyes, which is a marginal improvement on having arms for eyes, but still lags way behind having eyes for eyes, in the eye department. It prevents Yami’s Mr Magnet (not real name) from being able to attack OR defend AND it deals 500 points of damage to Yami every turn, because it is broken.
Yami’s observing their strategy…
(Light guy is Smol) The Ghouls are playing a tight team game, where Smol plays buffs and traps and shit and Tol plays mostly monsters.
Yami can’t use Mr Masked Magnet to attack or defend, but Kaiba thinks that if he sacrifices it….
Yami, meanwhile, thinks “I have a bad feeling about this” but, if there’s one thing Yami’s better at than overdramatic posing while dueling, it’s figuring out there’s a trap and deciding the best way to deal with it is to immediately trigger it on himself, and he is REALLY good at overdramatic posing while dueling.
SO good, his jacket pales into a white sleeveless cape in shock
also #figureskatingau
Sadly, he’s also very good at triggering traps…
And obviously smarmy sausage-finger fuck-face Smol Ghoul is all “oh you ~fell for it~” like, STFU asshole, there are only like four ways to summon things in the game and sacrificing is maybe the most common, it’s not ~falling for~ your super ~cunning trap~ to just … play the fuckin game…
But yes…
… due to the effects of another very overpowered mask-themed card, Yami and Seto can no longer use sacrifices, which basically means they can’t summon any decent monsters.
They’re in a tight spot, and Yami makes his boldest move yet: attempting to reason with Seto Fucking Kaiba.
In this moment, it’s clear that Kaiba and Yami share a bond that transcends 3000 years, 9000 kilometres, and Kaiba’s own alarmingly constipated emotional defensiveness, because they understand each other perfectly.
Sadly, in the moment immediately following, it’s clear that Kaiba is an angry, emotionally constipated asshole.
SO CRANKY
SO POUTY
Okay so, Kaiba’s abysmal people-skills aside, Tol Ghoul goes to attack Kaiba and Kaiba’s in peak sass form today.
And Yami is in peak ADORABLE SUPPORTIVE BOYFRIEND FORM
ahhhhhh he’s so fuckin cute!
Especially since the Japanese for “alright!” sounds like “YUS!”
So Kaiba triggers a trap of his own, the Grenade Necklace (not real name)
Grim.
“Both players” in this case referring to opposite players, in the tag duel, so both Kaiba and Tol Ghoul.
But!
(I like the eye-segments!)
Smol Ghoul changes the target of Kaiba’s trap to affect Kaiba’s Monster instead, and Yami realises neither of the Ghouls seem to care that Tol Ghoul is open to damage from the trap either way so he tries to warn Seto…
And Seto TAKES TIME OUT OF HIS TURN to be a jerk about it.
Seto Kaiba has less than no chill.
Does this look like the face of a man with any chill?
>:D
Kaiba’s terrifying grin is quickly wiped off his face however, as Yami is proven correct…
… Tol Ghoul uses a magic card to swipe Kaiba’s own Trap Protection Flower (not real name).
So Kaiba takes the damage from and loses a monster to his own trap…
“Well, would you look at the time, it’s fuck this o clock.”
…and Tol Ghoul follows up with an attack aimed directly at the now-defenceless Kaiba, with easily enough firepower to wipe out his lifepoints and send him falling through the ceiling with only his parachute-sized coat to save him.
… This really doesn’t seem like the best way to kill a man you need to immediately take a trading card from post-defeat (remember their primary goal with Kaiba is get Obelisk) but OKAY.
Tol Ghoul launches his attack…
And Kaiba stares it down, presumably reevalutating his choices since Yami’s his only chance to avoid death and he literally just got done explicitly telling Yami to mind his own damn business
IS Kaiba finally about to die due to his own rudeness? DOES Kaiba even care or is he like “worth it”? WILL Yami be the bigger (smaller) man and bail him out? FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON PHARAOHSPARKLEFISTS WATCHES YGO
Bruh I was screaming internally inside the car with my mom driving!XD
So that’s where this scene comes from.I saw their smiles on Pinterest and wonder what eps this is…
The moment…we’re all been waiting for~!
And under that fucking Pinterest post I said this is the happiest Atem’s been too lmao
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
This is how I feel about Dirty Harry. These criminals always seem to take something from him. The altar...That's my fantasy man
i love characters who do the “i worship the myth i make of you” and in turn dehumanize and get wrong the object of their devotion and love. yes project a thing that does not exist onto a pedestal and kneel at it like it is your altar. this will surely not blow up in both of your faces eventually
The best rivals ever~!
Blue Eyes looks like he’s snickering at Kaiba!XD
Sassy Yami is just
Love how close he and Bressler are. Quite..realistic
Dirty Harry & whump
Goodness!!Truly~
they hate me for my slutty waist and my ability to see the good in everything
He never thinks about himself,God-Its A Wonderful Life,1946
This quote from this movie fits him so bad cuz he’s always thinking about other people and not him.Maybe that’s why he looks so tough all the time,just to be stronger for his friends.
His friends have their own issues to deal with which I so want them to solve it without Atem helping cuz God,Atem’s his own person.He’s kind,I admit that,but it sometimes kills me he never can relax without helping shit not related to him.These threats about people Killing him and wanting to duel him doesn’t make it any better either.Fuck you Marik,Bakura and the many others
Its only in Millenium World he got to,you know,be himself cuz he finally discovered his past.All Iam saying is,Atem can rest easy.His friends ain’t gonna go gone any minute now.I know he treasures them but still,let him do his thing.Give us episode of him having fun without killing threats and villains.Give us episode of him relaxing.I want to see him do what he wants.Chilling,this and that.
Ps:I personally think S0 Yami is the best version of him of him cuz he gets to do what he wants and the shadow games are just interesting.Plus he’s like Kira,only better
ATEM MADE THE SHOW.
HE SAVED THE WORLD.A LOT.
thinking abt how pissed kaiba would be about how little say in his own ~*destiny*~ atem actually had and how little autonomy he was actually granted and tbh I think he might be the only one who would be angry about that because he’s the one who is always fighting back against whatever the fuck the Universe Wants For Him and atem never had that right
so he makes him make decisions Not Involving anyone else bc he deserves to be unapologetically selfish, he literally gave the world Everything and they have NO right to ask for anything from him anymore and he will drill it into his boyfriend’s head if it’s the last thing he does
he’s like ok we’re going out with your friends tonight what do you want I’ll buy
and atem maybe considers like hm. yugi doesn’t like x and jounochi said a week ago he was REALLY craving y and kaibas just like no stop I don’t care. I don’t care. what do YOU want
and while it’s really insignificant decisions he wants him to make it’s like, getting him into a habit of thinking of himself as his own person and not somebody with a purpose to fill for the sake of everyone else
just
You Deserve Your Own Life And You Deserve To Make Decisions That Have NOTHING To Do With Other People. You Have Given Enough.
Anime style Young Justice? Iam in. Make Dick being robin longer too
Atem's so KAWAIIIIIIIII~!!!♡
Mindless idea I had years ago, suddenly I want to draw about it. What if Kaiba and Yami already dating but Jounouchi doesn't know, so he tried to rope Yami into his own scheme.
Unfortunately for him, Kaiba can recognized his spouse even in disguise.
