From his seat in his booth Gin watched on with interest as the pairings were announced. The first match was team Q4 vs team Ninja.From the entrance to the battleground stood Misaki, Kai, Shin, and Kamui. Strangely, Aichi was currently missing.

“What’s with that weird name?”, Misaki questioned.

“It’s short for Quadrifoglio which is Italian for four leaf clover, the ultimate symbol of luck.”, Shin explained.

“I like it!”, Kamui replied.

“I’m a bit worried. Aichi still hasn’t shown up yet. Do you think there’s any foul play from Team Asteroid?”, Shin questioned.

“It’s nothing like that. He’s just running late.”, Kai replied, with his eyes closed and crossing his arms.

“How do you know?”, Kamui asked.

“Because I was training with him. His final test has been taking awhile. Takuto wants to make sure he’s really ready.”, Kai replied.

The others gasped in shock hearing that Kai trained with Aichi.

Back in Kakusa many recognizable faces gathered around their TVs to watch the Circuit. At the Sendou household along with its usual residents was Mr. Mark, Miwa, Naoki, Mikuru, and Chrono. They watched the screen intently and Shizuka did a prayer for her son.

“I thought this was a tournament of 4 why do they only have 3 guys?”, Kamui questioned.

“The fourth person is as a alternate just in case and another person to switch out to. You technically can compete with just 3.”, Shin explained.

On the opposite side to team Q4 was team Ninja. The tallest of their members had cyan and black hair with grey eyes. He wore a fishnet shirt with a red scarf and a silver necklace. Another was a redhead with slicked back hair and red eyes. He also wore a fishnet top along with a purple and grey jacket. The shortest one who was even shorter than Kamui had blue hair covered by his hood and yellow eyes. He had a white hood and a gold part covering his mouth. Underneath it he wore an orange shirt and red arm warmers on his arms.

“Where’s your leader 003v? He’s not scared is he?”, the tallest one taunted.

“Hey, Aichi isn’t scared of anyone! He’s just late! That’s all!”, Kamui replied.

“Well then which one of you has the courage to go up first against a world class team.”, the redheaded one asked.

“I’ll be glad to kick your dory cuts!”, Kamui said, raising up his fist.

“Sorry butts you mean.”, Misaki corrected, making Kamui sweat drop.

“Whatever! I, Kamui the great, am gonna take you losers down!”, Kamui announced.

“We’ll see about that. I’ll be your opponent. I am Crank, a master of the grass type”, the shortest one said.

“I’m master of uhh...the winning type!”, Kamui replied as he walked up to the battlefield causing Misaki to face palm.

“Remember Kamui you only get to select one Pokémon in this battle so be careful. If you get defeated then one of us is up next against Crank.”, Misaki said.

“For team Ninja we have the master of grass, a veteran in this circuit, Crank. And for team Q4 we have the whirlwind fighter hailing from the Kakusa region, Katsuragi Kamui!”, MC Miya introduced.

“Go, Ludicolo!”, Crank called out.

“Go, Buster!”, Kamui called out.

Leon narrowed his eyes from his booth.

“003v us somewhere near here, but it seems he’s learned to suppress the energy his Psyqualia gives off.”, Leon thought.

He could feel him very vaguely somewhere near the arena. He didn’t know why he hadn’t appeared yet though.

Back to the battle…

“Buster use blaze kick!”, Kamui commanded.

Buster kicked off, launching a flying flame-covered kick at Ludicolo.

“You must really be a fool! Ludicolo is also a water type! Ludicolo ninja arts of hydro pump!”, Crank said.

Ludicolo shot a torrent of water at Buster.

“Oh no!”, Miwa said, watching the match on the tv.

“Buster!”, Kamui called out as he did Buster twisted mid air away from the water.

Buster then landed briefly, kicking off the ground and delivering a rising flame kick to Ludicolo’s face.

“Ninja art of hydro pump!”, Crank ordered.

As another torrent of water was shot Buster spun out of the way of the attack.

“Wow, Kamui’s Blazekin sure is fast.”, Emi commented, as she watched.

“My! My! It looks like Crank’s mon can’t even touch Kamui’s! We’ll our rookies get actually win over our veterans team Ninja?”, MC Miya said.

Buster was very light on its feet, easily dodging the watery blasts sent its way.

“Buster use thunder punch!”, Kamui commanded.

Buster moved swiftly like lightning before Crank could give his next order Buster struck Ludicolo with its lightning punch. Ludicolo stubbled a bit but as it tried to right itself and was hit by another punch. With every hit the was a crackle of thunder following it.

“Ludicolo ninja art of-gah?!”, Crank gasped in shock as Ludicolo fell to the ground fainting.

“Heh! Is that all you got world class losers?!”, Kamui taunted as he did Buster bounced around punching the air.

“Why you little…”, The tallest one grumbled.

“Don’t worry Jack I’m gonna teach that cocky brat a lesson.”, the redheaded one saint, putting his hand on his shoulder and smirking.

“I’ll be your next opponent. I am Lizard master of the water type.”, the redheaded one introduced.

“All you’ll be is another loser!”, Kamui replied.

Many of those back at the Sendou household sweat dropped at Kamui’s confidence.

“Let’s just hope he can continue to back it up. At least they got one win so far. That’s good.”, Shuka commented.

“Woah, that Blazekin is so rad. I should catch something like that.”, Naoki commented.

“I wonder where Aichi is though…”, Shizuka thought.

Somewhere near the area…

“Takuto!!! Takuto!!! Wait the match has started should we be-AHHH!!!”, Aichi screamed comedically as he ran from the sun lion shooting beams of light at him.

“You must be completely prepared, Aichi now fight me!”, Takuto said as Solgealeo.

Aichi looked over at the restraint bracers nervously. They seemed to be upgraded, their gems were now black and there was another one around his neck.

“But, you shut off my powers, how can I fight you without my Pokémon?!”, Aichi questioned, before squealing as he narrowly dodged another beam of light.

Back with Kamui…

Lizard walked up to the arena pulling out a Poké ball. Jack crossed his arms smirking, ignoring the sulking Crank.

“I don’t understand. I’m a veteran how did I lose to a rookie kid like him?”, Crank questioned.

“You can still redeem yourself, Crank.”, Jack whispered to him, causing Crank to turn to him and nod.

“Up next for team Ninja we have the master of the deep, Lizard!”, MC Miya announced.

“Go, Greninja!”, Lizard called out.

Buster faced the water Pokémon who got in a fighting stance.

“Greninja ninja art of spikes.”, Lizard ordered.

“Buster use thunder-“, Kamui was saying before he was caught off.

“Ninja art of smoke screen!”, Lizard cut him off.

Greninja made a hand sign and smoke filled the arena.

“What the heck now I can’t see!”, Kamui complained.

“This isn’t good. Greninja will likely be able to find Buster. But, Buster can’t see him.”, Yugi commented.

“How can Greninja see but Buster can’t?”, Jonouchi asked.

“Think Jonouchi, think. Why would he use this strategy if he didn’t have a way to find his opponent.”, a new voice said who entered.

He had black hair in a ponytail and green eyes. He had a black shirt with a red vest and pants. He wore dice earrings and had a red headband. He also had black makeup on his face under his right eye.

“I don’t remember asking you Ryuji!”, Jonouchi grumbled as Ryuji smirked at him.

“I thought you’d graduate from being a Lillipup before this tournament began. I hope you don’t hold us back.”, Ryuji teased.

This made Jonouchi growl.

“Hey! Hey! Settle down guys!”, Honda said, getting between the two and raising up his hands.

Kamui squinted his eyes trying to see through the fog.

“Oh no! Lizard has already set up his specialty! This could be the beginning of the end for our rookie team!”, MC Miya announced.

“Greninja use ninja art of water shuriken!”, Lizard ordered.

Kamui could hear a loud splash and a stumble from within the smoke clouds which was likely Buster getting hit by the attack. Kamui growled in frustration at not being able to see what’s going on.

“Buster use thunder punch! Punch around till you find him!”, Kamui ordered.

They could hear Buster swinging but no impact while instead hearing loud splashes and stumbling.

“This isn’t good.”, Shin commented.

They could hear feet running and a loud thunder crack as Greninja was sent flying out the smoke.

“Darn! He got a lucky shot!”, Lizard said angrily.

Out from the smoke Buster pulled back a fist ready to strike Greninja again.

“Greninja use hydro pump quick!!!”, Lizard ordered.

At almost the same time the lightning punch and torrent of water connected with their intended targets. Both Pokémon fell over fainting.

“Darn. I hoped I could sweep the whole team! You did good, Buster. Who’s tagging in next?”, Kamui said, returning Buster.

“I’m up next.”, Misaki said, before they high fives signaling Kamui tagging out.

“Oh my oh my! A double knock out! This battle just keeps getting more thrilling! The rookies may really win this match at this rate! All who’s left for team Ninja is their leader Jack, master of the inferno! However he’s the strongest of them all! If anyone can pull of a comeback victory for his team it’s him!”, MC Miya announced.

“So, fire type huh.”, Misaki thought.

“For team Q4 we have Tokura Misaki, the Kakusa region’s own Psychic type gym leader! She’s been rumored to have mystic powers which she uses to completely dominate her opponents!”, MC Miya announced.

A tick mark appeared on Misaki’s head after MC Miya announced the rumor. Kamui and Shin nervously stepped back from Misaki.

“I don’t have any powers, you moron!!! Just photographic memory!!!”, Misaki yelled in annoyance at the commentator who nervously flinched.

Yugi and his friends sweat dropped from the stands hearing Misaki’s outburst.

“Woah, she’s as feisty as she is beautiful.”, Ryuji commented, cupping his chin.

“She would break you in half Ryuji…”, Anzu replied, still sweat dropping.

The two competitors brought out a Poké ball.

“Go! Incineroar!”, Jack called out.

“Go, Sakuya!”, Misaki called out.

Sakuya winced as her feet dug into the spikes laid in the previous match.

Not Quite Unrequited Yami x Reader Chapter 3

Three: Finger Lengths Away

One //// Two //// Three //// Four //// Five //// Six //// Seven

Summary: Yami would do whatever it took to keep his friendship with you intact, even if it meant putting on a smile and pushing his love for you aside. You knew Yugi loved Anzu, but getting over your feelings for him was hard, especially when time made feelings for another best friend arise.

AU where Duel Monsters is just a (vastly popular) card game and Yami and Yugi are twins. This is a fic I’ve already posted this on my AO3 but I wanted to spread the Yu-gi-oh x Reader love here on tumblr.

A.N: Just some nice, slow development between you and Yami ^.^

The season had turned cold some time ago and the New Year was almost upon you. The gang had scored big when it came to celebrating with each other this year. Anzu’s parents were out of town, visiting friends for the new year and had agreed to her inviting all of you over for a massive sleepover while they were gone.

After showing up at her doorstep, duffel bag in hand, you along with the Mutou boys helped her make dinner for everyone- Honda and Jonouchi being banished from the kitchen before they could set anything ablaze or worse. Yami was at the same counter as you, helping cut vegetables while you peeled potatoes as Anzu and Yugi worked at the oven and stove, practically leaving you two in your own little bubble.

It was such a domestic setting, you found yourself thinking; peaceful, easy and comfortable. Yami asked how your day had gone before coming over, offering up a husky chuckle when you mentioned how your family teasingly warned against getting ‘New Years Wasted’ before you left. You asked him what his new year’s resolution was if he had one, he paused and gave a thoughtful hum as he considered the question, finally giving a little cough and saying that he hadn’t chosen one yet. Even though you were trying to focus on peeling, you couldn’t help but to catch him casting an odd look behind him, likely towards Yugi or Anzu.

The momentary distraction was a mistake, because you felt a sharp pain rip across your thump as you accidentally ran the potato peeler over the digit instead of its intended victim. You hissed in pain as you dropped the potato, biting your lip to prevent spewing profanities.

“Are you alright?” Yami closed the small gap between you two in an instant, looking over your shoulder to examine the scene. A futile attempt, as you were clutching your thumb in your hand in an effort to somehow soothe the pain. “Let me see” he insisted, tone gentle but firm.

You allowed it, letting him take your hand in his. Thankfully it wasn’t bleeding much, having just taken off a top, but still sensitive layer of skin. “It’s not bad, it just hurts is all.”

“Here, better safe than sorry” Anzu insisted as she put a tube of disinfectant and a bandage in Yami’s hand. You hadn’t even noticed that she ran off to grab them.

Since she had quite literally left the task in Yami’s hands, he held the bandage in his mouth so he could unscrew the cap of the cream. He held your hand again as he gently rubbed a dab of it on the raw skin, and for some reason you felt heat creep up your arm from where his fingertips touched you. His movements were careful, and he focused on this small task with the same concentration he had when strategizing during his games. You found yourself examining his eyes as he moved on to applying the bandage. They had so much depth to them, such intelligence and intensity. Even when they softened and gazed at something with fondness there was still that ardor to them. Violet irises that were almost a hue of red conveying the deepest of passion under that collected manner.

A gentle call of your name as those irises met yours jolted you from your lost thoughts. “Huh?” you asked, feeling a blush coming on.

“I was asking if it’s too tight” Yami answered, referring to the band-aid.

“Oh- no no, it’s fine, just perfect. Thank you.” Why was your face so hot?!

He flashed that small smile of his “Good. Now, try not to cut yourself again?” he teased, his thumb rubbing slow circles over the freshly tended wound; a rare brand of affection coming from Yami.

“Yeah, because that was my idea of a good time” you sassed back, though the words came out shakier than usual and that made you want to internally scream just a little.

He didn’t seem to notice, just slid back down the counter to return to his own task as you picked the potato and peeler up again. The odd sensation you had felt at his touch, the blush, the shaky words- what was wrong with you!? You had never acted like that around Yami, though, you supposed the rare physical contact was a contributing- perhaps the only factor to your reaction. Even still…there was a slight ache in your chest over the absences of that physical contact.

After food came the games, mostly ones Yami and Yugi had brought from home. You had decided long ago that when all of you played something that divided the players into teams, the twins could absolutely never be on the same one. It was challenging enough facing off with one of them. So Anzu and Jonouchi called dibs on Yugi for their team and Yami was drafted for yours and Honda’s. The seating arrangements in Anzu’s living room meant you and the older Mutou had to share a two cushion sofa while Honda took the armchair beside it.

You didn’t mind sitting so close to Yami, but you began to worry that he did. While debating on what to play first with Jonouchi, you caught Yami shooting his brother a glare, his face looking a little red as he actually shoved himself against the armrest and, in effect, as far away from you as possible. After a small, internal debate you decided not to mention it, instead scooting away from him and as close to your own armrest as was comfortable. If he was really uncomfortable with sitting next to you, you didn’t want to impose, though you had to ignore how hurt you felt at the thought. You completely missed the hue of disappointment and guilt that crossed Yami’s face for the briefest of moments when he saw your action.

As the games went on you remained oblivious to the inner turmoil Yami was putting himself through. Everyone was oblivious of course, except Yugi, who was still casting his brother knowing look after knowing look. He hadn’t meant to move away from you. It had almost been a subconscious reaction when his brother made a few discreet gestures that suggested he put his arm around you or something as equally intimate. Then he noticed you looking at the space between you, the faintest expression of hurt in your eyes before increasing the distance yourself. Now he cursed every finger length that spanned between the two of you, as if the gap was a physical barricade keeping you from him.

What the hell was he even doing anymore? He seemed to constantly flip between barely resisting the urge to pull you into his arms- and scolding himself for even daring to look at you with love as your back was turned. Yugi did not help matters. He was trying to, that was the problem. Yugi was wholeheartedly convinced that you two could be together, and now that you had had ample time to get over that ‘mystery guy’, the young man was in full ‘get my brother and best friend together now’ mode. When you had asked about his new year’s resolution, a conversation came flooding back to him, one where Yugi had said, “your goal this new year should be to finally kiss the love of your life!” And he had been serious, even thinking up a couple sweet ways Yami could confess his love. The memory was embarrassing to say the least, made even more so when he looked over his shoulder and saw Yugi mouthing for him to tell you exactly what his resolution was!

He did let a bit of Yugi’s encouragement in though, mostly because he was still feeling guilty over scooting away from you. As the gang went from game to game, Yami started to close the gap, little by little, at a painstakingly slow pace. You didn’t notice at first, until his leg pressed against yours as he leaned forward to move his game piece. When he saw you glance up at him, he flashed you a small, warm smile. His heart did a little somersault when you returned it in kind. By god you were adorable.

Eventually, the gameplay dissolved into general conversation between everyone. Honda and Jonouchi teasing Anzu and Yugi as they cuddled, wrapped up in the same blanket. You came to their defense, a laugh in your voice as you said that as long as they didn’t start making out- or worse, being wrapped in each other’s arms was perfectly fine. Then the boys moved on from their teasing to talk about what they were looking forward to in the coming year. This year would also encompass the last of high school for all of you, so naturally talks about what was waiting for you after graduation ensued.

Jonouchi was already set on becoming a professional Duel Monsters Duelist and you all agreed that he had been getting good enough lately to possibly achieve that. He had actually blushed at that and scratched the back of his head as he expressed how he was lucky to have such supportive friends. Anzu was of course going to New York, her dedication to the performing arts as strong as ever. You and Yugi shared a look, both thinking how you would miss Anzu dearly, but would just have to think up the best ways to stay connected while she was away.

The night rolled on and Jonouchi and Honda were now outside on the porch talking. Anzu and Yugi had moved to curl up on the couch and play a video game. You and Yami would have joined them but Anzu only had two controllers, so you decided that when the boys came back inside you could all just take turns battling each other. So instead, you and Yami positioned your bodies to face each other on the sofa as you talked.

The setting was calm, your voices low, the tone almost a lazy one. Yami had his head resting on his arm as it braced against the back of the couch, half of his face was covered by his bangs as they squished between his cheek and arm. You found yourself thinking that he looked quite cute in the position. Something about his relaxed, easy demeanor you supposed.

“So, are you still planning on entering professional tournaments like Jonouchi?” you asked.

“Hm, yes. Both of us are pretty passionate about it. Yugi will enter a few himself, I think. Though I know he mostly wants to focus on his dream of inventing his own games. I’ll be doing both, working with Yugi and Dueling.”

“I can’t wait until you and Yugi bring out your first game! I know it’ll be awesome, honestly I think you two should just start your own gaming company. You could call it ‘Brothers Mutou Gaming’ …or…something” your name pitch dissolved into a laugh, not knowing if the name sounded silly to him or not.

He let out that low chuckle of his, smiling at you with a fondness in his eyes. “We’ve thrown a couple potential names back and forth recently, we’ll have to keep that one in mind. Not sure if we can actually start our own business anytime in the near future, but” he gave a little shrug “we will see.”

Your conversation was cut short as Anzu called out to the both of you “Guys! It’s almost midnight, the New Year’s almost here!”

She and Yugi had sat up straight, eyes intent on the clock beside the TV. A look confirmed that it was indeed 11:58 and the two of you sat up straighter as well. Yugi had called the boys back inside and together you all counted down the last seconds of the year. When the turn came Jonouchi and Honda let loose with their party poppers and whistles, while Yugi and Anzu gave each other a sweet New Years Kiss. The boys turned the music on the TV up louder as they threw their arms around each other and started to sing loudly- and badly, but we won’t linger on that.

“Happy New Year” Yami whispered to you over the ruckus the boys were making.

He was leaning in close, and you were sure you were blushing as you said, voice equally as low “Happy New Year, Yami.”

You weren’t sure what made you do it, but you found yourself leaning in and placing a kiss on his forehead. It was light, but lingering; lasting a few heartbeats, heartbeats in which you could have sworn you felt pounding in Yami’s chest. Almost suddenly, you pulled away.

“I-I’m sorry!” you breathed when you saw Yami’s shocked, red face. “Did I make you uncomfortable or-”

“No!” Yami insisted in a rush, his voice still barely above a whisper “No, it was fine. Please, don’t apologize.” After a few breaths, the red in his face started to diminish. Finally, he closed his eyes, chuckled, and looked at you again. “I suppose we all want a New Years Kiss.”

He hesitated for a moment, contemplation playing behind his eyes, then he leaned in and pressed his lips to your cheek. It was short but sweet and when he leaned back he was wearing that special smile of his. You both hovered there, in that aftermath, looking into each other’s eyes. Even though it was only for a few moments, nothing else seemed to exist besides the two of you within those fleeting seconds.

DM21 Pairings: n/a Characters: Main characters are Ryou Bakura, Akefia Bakura aka Thief King Bakura, Yugi Mutou, and Kek aka Yami Marik. Other important characters are Ishizu, Rishid, and Anzu. Lots of other people appear as side characters. Content Warnings: mild horror, non-graphic recollection of a monster attack in which people were killed Summary: It's a Star Trek AU! Ryou and Bakura are brothers who left their desert homeworld behind to join Starfleet, and were assigned to the USS Millennium. Bakura doesn't get along with Captain Atem at all, so when the captain's brother Yugi joins the crew on an unexpected and secretive mission, Bakura is ready to despise him too. One creepy rescue mission on a rapidly decaying ship later, Bakura is reluctant friends with Yugi, Ryou is much less reluctant friends with a flaming ghost, and Marik's quest for revenge probably attracted the attention of something Dark and Evil. This is written in the style of Star Trek, so it's part of a larger story and could be expanded, but is (hopefully) a completed episode that can be read on its own. It's a mixture of humor, drama, and a bit of horror, and doesn't really focus on any ships besides spaceships. I would probably rate it T for the swearing and brief mentions of death by monster attack.

Summary: Bakura’s second chance at life isn’t going too well. Trapped in an endless cycle of self-loathing and depression, he’s sunk lower than he’ll ever be able to pull himself out of alone. Malik’s been out of the picture, but now he’s back in Domino and ready to kick his old friend’s ass into gear…or so he’d hoped. It turns out it’s going to require more than tough love and a few kisses. As the Shadows themselves beckon, the “Roku no Sennen” step into the unknown to retrieve Bakura’s soul before he is lost to the world forever.

DM23 Pairings: n/a Characters: Atem, Kaiba, Yugi. Sort of Minor Appearances: Joey and the Ishtars Content Warnings: No warnings or triggers!

What are your Top 5 Yugioh characters and your Top 10 favorite Pokemon?

This turned out to be a pretty long answer since I didn’t want to just list out the names, so I’ll put this under a cut

Top 5 Yu-Gi-Oh! characters:

5. Atem: This answer may change whenever I get around to watching more of DM subbed and see more of the differences between the original and dub version of the character, but for now, I think I’d include him in the top five. He was the first Yu-Gi-Oh! that I really liked. He is a kind of traditionally cool protagonist type, but he had more going for him than just the cool factor. He still had emotionally vulnerable moments and flaws, primarily his pride and anger getting the better of him. His bond with his friends, especially Yugi and Jonouchi, was touching and the mystery behind his lost memories was pretty interesting. Atem’s loyalty to his friends and willingness to protect others made him admirable. I loved how Yugi taught him the strength in kindness while he was able to help Yugi discover his confidence. He’s just a really cool and likable lead character.

4. Judai: I didn’t think I’d like Judai this much when I watched GX dub. Watching the series subbed definitely gave me a new appreciation for his character. He’s likable from the start. He can be blunt and not know the best way to handle situations, but he does genuinely care about his friends and knows when he has to be serious when major duels are on the line. While I still find season three to be a bit overrated, Judai’s development from season three and what I’ve seen of season four is really solid. He’s easily one of the best developed protagonists thus far. There are long lasting consequences to what happen during those seasons. Judai can’t completely go back being to the happy go-lucky person he was during the first two seasons, but he was able to regain a bit of his love of dueling as he kept moving forward towards his future.

3. Jack: Jack is easily my favorite rival. I thought he was just a jerk at first, but then he explained everything to Yusei before their match in the Fortune Cup and demanding for his friends to be let go before said match. That showed that he had some honor and respect towards Yusei. His development during the Dark Signer arc was great. He felt genuine regret for his actions and was starting to become a better person once he recognized that. I loved his relationship with Carly and even with how the second half of the series turned out, I’d still say it is canon. He was still fun and likable in the second half of the series. He became a bit too comedic at points, the show forgot that he could combine power and strategy before and the retcon with Godwin fixing his matches for Jack to become King was really a really bad and unnecessary change, but he was still pretty likable and fun to watch in spite of those changes.

Needless to say, I was so excited when he returned in Arc V. I think the Arc V version of Jack is tied with the original 5D’s version, or at least it’s close. Jack fits the mentor/traditional rival role for Yuya so well. He provides the most development for Yuya and their duels are really great, especially their second match. I still love that Arc V Jack had everything that 5D’s Jack wanted without betraying his friends in the process, but he’s still so miserable until Yuya finally provides him the challenge he wanted. That says a lot about what Jack ultimately wanted in the end.

2. Sho: Sho is one of the most relatable characters for me. He’s shy, he has self-confidence problems and even though he is distant from his older brother, he still admires him. I related to him right away and his development throughout GX was handled really well. He slowly became more confident, they even made his doubt in Judai during season three a really great subplot and his duel during season four was a great way to show how far he had come, as well as give him a good sense of closure. While GX is full of really good and likable characters, I don’t think that Sho gets as much attention as he should.

1. Yuya: This probably isn’t a huge surprise, but Yuya is by far my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh! character. He’s so likable, relatable and complex. He struggles with a lot of emotional problems throughout the series, such as low self-esteem, self-doubt and depression, all of which was the result of losing his father and then being bullied for years. Struggling through emotional problems that were partly the result of bullying does hit pretty close to home for me, even if the circumstances were obviously different, so that made him more relatable. Some people didn’t like how he would be determined to move forward only for something out of his control to push him emotionally backwards, which I can understand to a degree, but that happens with me all the time, so that just makes me relate to Yuya even more.

I think one of my favorite things about Yuya is that even with his emotional conflicts, he genuinely wants to make people happy through his dueling and he keeps trying to work through his problems to realize his goal. It’s idealistic as can be, but it is admirable, especially with everything he goes through during the series. His development is terrific, he has some really entertaining duels, especially when he does find his own dueling style, and his desire to make everyone smile is really sincere. I absolutely loved that he had the confidence to say that he’d become a better Entertainment Duelist than his father at the end of the series. Considering he was only focused on becoming as great as his father, that was a pretty major moment and provided a good sense of closure for him as well. He is my favorite character in the franchise by far.

Top 10 Pokemon:

I’ll just list off a few Pokemon that I really like since I already gave my top five:

Dragalge is probably my favorite Poison type. It has a unique design, typing and I have really enjoyed raising one in my Ultra Sun team.

Mew is one of my favorite Legendary Pokemon. It has a cute and simple design that really works for it.

Suicune is another one of my favorite Legendary Pokemon. I love its elegant design and its role in Crystal/HeartGold/SoulSilver.

Lugia is another one of my favorite Pokemon. It has an awesome design that shows how powerful and cool it is.

Charizard is pretty cool. It does get a lot of praise, but it is the coolest of the original starters and looking so much like a dragon probably helped. Mega Charizard X is pretty awesome too.

Salamence is pretty awesome. It has a great design and I love that it evolved wings due to Bagon’s desire to fly.

Leafeon is another new favorite. I always liked its design, but raising one in Ultra Sun after wanting to raise one for so long made me like it even more. It’s probably either my third or fourth favorite Eevee evolution at this point.

Mudsdale is such a cool Pokemon. I love its design. It looks like it would be fun to ride all over Alola on a Mudsdale, It has a great ability and it was really useful on my Moon team.

Lycanroc is so great. I love all of its forms, although I do have more of a soft spot for the Midday form and the Dusk form grew on me after awhile. It just looks so tough and cool. Plus, having a more offensive and fast Rock type is pretty neat. I’ve loved raising one in my Sun and Ultra Sun teams.

Manectric is one of my favorite Electric types and one of my favorite canine based Pokemon as well. It has a cool color scheme and can be really useful in battle.

Thank you for asking. ^_^

l loooove your blog! and l hope you don't mind me asking what your top 3 duells are? also there is no need to give a long answer if you don't want to of course ;D l'd would mind reading it tho but only do it if you want to :P

Heck ya I don’t mind!

3. Yami Yugi vs. Yugi

Of course this duel is up near the top, but it’s a GREAT ending for the series. And it just has all the components of a good duel for the show - it emphasizes the end goals for the two Yugis (Yugi had to learn independence and Yami Yugi had to learn to lose while fighting his hardest), the cards played had major symbolism in connection with the show (Yugi stopping Monster Reborn from being played indicating that spirits need to pass on when their time has come), and of course exciting duel play (Yugi fucking destroying all three Egyptian God Cards).

2. Pandora/Arkana vs. Yami Yugi + Yugi vs. Possessed!Jonouchi

I’m gonna cheat here and place these two as tied for second, because I love them both a lot.

Pandora/Arkana vs. Yami Yugi

I’m kind of surprised how much I love this particular duel, but I think it’s because it’s around the time the audience gets a sense of a larger connection between Atem and the Dark Magician (and the Dark Magician’s connection to Dark Magician Girl). In other words, this duel ends up being foreshadowing for the relationship between these three (Atem, Mahad, and Mana) in the Egyptian Arc, despite still being quite awhile from this point. Getting to rewatch it in hindsight - it’s like watching these three finally find their way back to each other.

And Dark Magician’s sacrifice never fails to hit me right in the kokoro.

Also, I just think the duel is particularly exciting because of how evenly matched Pandora and Atem were (pretty clearly emphasized when they literally had the same moves to attack each other and revive their magicians near the beginning). Although the reason for Pandora’s downfall was a little on the nose (the whole not respecting his cards wasn’t very subtle lol), it felt a lot less like a single point that Atem was able to turn the duel around in his favor to win (like, say, drawing chain destruction to keep exodia from being summoned) but setting up moments throughout the duel that slowly lead to Pandora’s defeat which made it a lot more satisfying.

Possessed!Jonouchi vs. Yugi

The duel itself isn’t exactly top tier amazing on its own but this makes sense - the point of this duel wasn’t really to win the duel with flashy moves but to win against the struggles happening outside of it. And that’s what I liked about it - the goal of the duel wasn’t simply to reduce the opponent’s lifepoints to 0 but to strike a very careful balance between fighting on to snap Jonouchi out of his possession while keeping both players alive to the end.

So as a result, Jonouchi’s and Yugi’s main character struggles for this arc are brought to the forefront. Both Jonouchi and Yugi are coming to terms with the need to be independent of Yami Yugi - Jonouchi setting himself up as a rival (in a much more healthy way than Kaiba does) while Yugi spends a lot of time accepting that he and Yami Yugi won’t stay together forever. In terms of the duel, Yugi fights to prove his capability to be strong for his friends without Yami Yugi and Jonouchi fights to find the internal strength to break through Marik’s brainwashing through his memories (i.e. looking at everything his learned up to that point and finding his identity). And both of them supported each other to achieve these goals by…fighting each other. It’s quite an interesting set up.

(I could talk for 17 more paragraphs but I’ll mercifully end this here lol)

1. Yami Marik vs. Yami Yugi

Honestly, I really like all of Yami Marik’s duels because I love him as a villain. Sometimes it’s just interesting to watch the embodiment of chaos and bloodlust wreak havoc - but most importantly how we got from point A to point Z, since he didn’t just fly out of the womb looking to kill a man. Yu-Gi-Oh! has a few main themes, and one of them is the idea of “another self”. In this duel, we got to see Marik having to overcome the dark part of himself (with the help of Rishid - which illustrates another theme of Yu-Gi-Oh! - support through love) that manifested after years of…just having been constantly dealt a horrible hand in life, so to speak.

And speaking of support, Yami Yugi’s win was achieved because so many people came together to help Yami Yugi and normal Marik. Of course, there was Yugi + friends with moral support, but also Kaiba’s card which he gave to Yami Yugi because Ishizu convinced him so her brother would have a better chance of being saved. And as mentioned, Rishid coming to the rescue at the end to give Marik one hell of a motivational speech. The interwoven love and care for people played such a large part in this duel, and it’s really heartwarming for such a dark duel.

As for the duel itself, while the entire arc is pretty much an intense clash of the gods, this battle is particularly brought to the forefront here as a way to wrap this clash up. Not too much to say except it was hella exciting haha

Some honorable mentions:

Yugi vs. Kaiba in DSOD, Mai vs. Yami Yugi, ALL of Yami Marik’s duels, Yami Yugi vs. Kaiba in Duelist Kingdom, Yami Yugi vs. Marik as the mime and Kajiki/Mako vs. Jonouchi.

Heart of the Vanguard Concept Chapter part 2

(Concept chapters are basically just to test to see if people will like a fic idea I have. This fic crosses over Yugioh Duel Monsters and Cardfight Vanguard.)

“Hello Aichi. It’s been awhile.”, Yami replied.

“Remember Aichi normal people can’t see Yugi’s little ghost friend.”, Misaki whispered.

“Oh! Yeah that’s right!”, Aichi replied, remembering.

“It’s fine I’m simply a observer.”, Yami replied, and Aichi nodded.

“Ghost? What?”, Emi questioned.

“It’s nothing, Emi.”, Aichi replied.

The two of them started a rock paper scissors. Aichi threw scissors and Yugi threw rock.

“Looks like you're going first.”, Aichi said and Yugi nodded.

As the duel started Yugi could feel an intensity from him. He could easily tell just how passionate he was just from his eyes alone.

Yugi

Hand: 6

“First, I summon Beformet allowing me to add Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts to my hand. I’ll activate Polymerization fusing together Berformet and Gazelle to summon Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast!”, Yugi started.

Chimera the Flying Mythical beast

ATK 2100/DEF 1800

Yugi

Hand: 3

“Woah, a fusion monster already! That’s not good.”, Emi commented, looking at her brother worriedly.

“That’s our Yugi!”, Honda said.

“I set one card facedown and end my turn.”, Yugi finished.

Yugi

Hand: 2

“A strong start as always.”, Aichi complimented.

“Let’s see if you can get through this.”, Yugi replied.

“We’ll see. I draw. I summon Noble Knight’s Companion Wingal.”, Aichi started.

Aichi

Hand: 5

Noble Knights’ Companion Wingal

( BEAST-WARRIOR / LIGHT / EFFECT/ ATK : 1400 / DEF : 1200 / LV 4

This monster is always treated as a warrior monster. You can tribute this monster to special summon a monster with “Blaster Blade” in its name from your deck or hand, this card becomes equipped to it and the equipped monster gains 400 attack. When this monster is in the graveyard you can equip this monster to one light warrior monster you control. When this monster is equipped to a “Noble Knight” monster it counts as a “Noble Arms” equip spell.

“That’s not good.”, Yugi commented.

“You remember Wingal’s effect don’t you. With his effect I tribute him to special summon Noble Knight Blaster Blade! Stand up my avatar!”, Aichi replied, searching his deck for Blaster Blade and placing it down.

Noble Knight Blaster Blade

( WARRIOR / LIGHT / EFFECT/ ATK : 2100 / DEF : 1500 / LV 5

Effect: When this monster is summoned or special summoned you can select one Noble Arms equip spell from your graveyard to equip to it. Once per turn, when this card is summoned or special summoned you can tribute one equip spell card you control to destroy one card your opponent controls.)

Yugi imagined the form of the silver knight clad in futuristic armor. He had piercing emerald green eyes and blue glowing lines on his armor. This was Aichi’s ace monster for a reason.

“And with his effect he equips himself to Blaster Blade from the graveyard and Blaster Blade gains 400 attack.”, Aichi continued.

Noble Knight Blaster Blade

ATK 2100->2500

“I equip Blaster Blade with Noble Arms Caliburn raising his attack by 500 and with its effect I gain 500 life points.”, Aichi continued.

Aichi

Hand: 4

Noble Knight Blaster Blade

ATK 2500->3000

Aichi LP 4000->4500

“Oh no! Now Blaster Blade is as strong as Blue Eyes!”, Anzu commented.

“Stronger it has a effect after all.”, Misaki replied, causing Anzu to turn to her.

Somewhere Kaiba felt more grumpy than usual, gripping the phone he was on a call with across the room. The phone shattered on impact, scaring his poor employees.

“Fire whoever designed that weak phone!”, Kaiba ordered.

“But they don’t work for you?”, an employee questioned.

“Then I’ll hire them so I can fire them!”, Kaiba replied angrily.

Back at Card Capital…

“I activate Blaster Blade’s effect tributing Caliburn to destroy your facedown card. Burst Buster!”, Aichi continued.

Blaster Blade ATK 3000 ->2500

Yugi sent the card to the graveyard revealing it to be Magic Cylinder.

“Why did he get rid of the bigger boost though?”, Honda questioned.

“Have you not learned anything about his deck from all his duels you’ve seen?”, Misaki questioned.

“I activate the effect of Caliburn. Once per turn when it’s destroyed I can re-equip it to a Noble Knight monster I control.”, Aichi continued.

“So, Blaster Blade?”, Honda questioned.

“Obviously. Not only that but he can reactivate its effect to gain more life points”, Misaki replied.

“You sure know a lot about Aichi’s deck.”, Anzu commented, sweat dropping.

“Well, he does duel here everyday and I have a perfect memory.”, Misaki pointed out.

“That’s true.”, Anzu replied.

“Yeah...that’s why Misaki always beats me when we duel. She knows everything I’m about to do like she’s reading my mind.”, Aichi said.

“I’m not reading your mind, you're just really straightforward.”, Misaki replied, causing Aichi to chuckle.

“Don’t take it too personally, Bro you're simply a man of culture. The strategy is attack, attack and attack again! Offense is where it’s at. ”, Kamui said to Aichi.

Aichi LP 4500->5000

“I set two cards face down and I attack Chimera with Blaster Blade!”, Aichi continued.

Aichi

Hand: 2

Yugi LP 4000->3100

“I activate Chimera’s effect allowing me to special summon Gazelle from the graveyard.”, Yugi said.

Gazelle the King of Mythical Beasts

ATK 1500/DEF 1200

“I end my turn.”, Aichi replied.

“I draw, I activate Pot of Greed.”, Yugi started.

Yugi

Hand: 4

“I activate Ancient Rules to special summon Dark Magician from my hand.”, Yugi continued.

Dark Magician

ATK 2500/ DEF 2100

Yugi

Hand: 2

“I activate Thousand Knives, allowing me to destroy one monster on your field if I control a face up Dark Magician.”, Yugi continued.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“I don’t think so! I activate the effect of Morgan, the Enchantress of Avalon from my hand! With her effect if I control a Noble Knight monster and a Noble Arms spell I can tribute one to negate that effect.”, Aichi countered.

Aichi

Hand: 1

“That’s what I wanted you to do I activate One Shot Wand! Dark Magician gains 800 attack and I attack Blaster Blade! Dark Magic Attack!”, Yugi replied.

Yugi

Hand:0

Dark Magician

ATK 2500->3300

“That’s going to go through however before that I activate my trap! Until Noble Arms Are Needed Once Again which allows me to evacuate cards on the top of my deck equal to the number of Noble Arms equip spells I have on the field and add one then place the other in any order.”, Aichi replied.

Aichi

Hand: 2

He looked at the two cards on the top of his deck choosing one and placing the other on top of his deck.

Aichi LP 5000->4700

“Due to One Shot Wand’s effect it is destroyed and I draw one card. Then I attack you with Gazelle!”, Yugi declared.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“Alright.”, Aichi nodded.

Aichi LP 4700->3200

Yami narrowed his eyes.

“He’s planning something he could have activated the graveyard effect of his trap to avoid damage but he didn’t.”, Yami whispered.

“Yeah, I think you're right. I think he’s planning to summon ‘that card’.”, Yugi whispered.

“I end my turn.”, Yugi said.

“Alright, I draw. You know I never thought we would get to duel like this outside a big tournament.”, Aichi said.

Aichi

Hand: 3

“Well, you're a good guy to spend time with outside them.”, Yugi replied.

“Gah! D-don’t say that! I’m not really great. I’m honored that you actually accepted my invitation.”, Aichi replied, blushing nervously.

“Don’t sell yourself too short. You really are a great friend besides honesty I was nervous to meet you at first too. I saw the last nationals Q4 was really impressive for newcomers.”, Yugi replied.

“Well...we lost though?”, Misaki questioned.

“Even still you got to make up for it in Battle City and I’m sure next time you’ll beat Team Asteroid at nationals!”, Yugi replied.

“You really have a lot of confidence in us. I understand Kai, Misaki, and Kamui but why me?”, Aichi questioned.

“Cause from what I saw your a great duelist who has a strong bond with your cards.”, Yugi replied.

Aichi looked very embarrassed with steam coming out of his ears and Emi tried to cool him down a bit.

“Aichi doesn’t take praise too well.”, Emi said.

“The poor guy looks like he’s about to explode.”, a kid with green hair and glasses said.

“Atb yo.”, a kid with brown hair and green eyes added.

“He’s just modest. Honestly, I prefer that to Jonouchi’s overconfidence.”, Anzu replied.

“I-I don’t deserve y-your praise. Your y-you know you.”, Aichi stuttered.

Yugi couldn’t help but feel a warm feeling at how much Aichi really seemed to admire him.

“Don’t tease him too much, Yugi. He might actually explode.”, Honda joked.

“No, I mean it. I think you're a really reliable guy and a good rival.”, Yugi replied.

“R-rival!? T-to y-“, Aichi stuttered as more steam came out of his ears.

“There he goes, I think you broke him, Yugi.”, Miwa joked.

“I-I summon N-noble Knight Drystan. I a-activate Wingal’s effect f-from the graveyard to e-equip him to one light warrior monster I control.”, Aichi continued stuttering nervously.

Noble Knight Drystan

ATK 1800/DEF 800

Aichi

Hand: 2

“D-Drystan’s effect activates w-when a Noble Arms spell is equipped to h-him I can t-target one face up card a-and destroy it. I chose Dark Magician.” Aichi continued still stuttering.

“I can’t stop that.”, Yugi replied, sending Dark Magician to the graveyard.

Aichi took some deep breaths trying to calm down.

“It can be rather cute how nervous he gets.”, Anzu teased, immediately causing Aichi to become a blushing mess again.

Heart of the Vanguard Concept Chapter part 3

(Concept chapters are basically just to test to see if people will like a fic idea I have. This fic crosses over Yugioh Duel Monsters and Cardfight Vanguard.)

“Okay, now unfortunately Aichi my friend your going down.”, Yugi thought.

“I-I attack!”, Aichi continued, still blushing.

Yugi LP 3100->2800

“I can’t believe it! He’s actually in the lead against the King of Games!”, the brown haired teen gasped.

“I can’t believe it I lost!”, Morikawa yelled as he held his head.

“I can.”, Kamui replied plainly.

“Man, this dude sucks and Honda thought I couldn’t beat a dueling monkey.”, Jonouchi replied.

“Rematch! I just had a bad hand that’s all!”, Morikawa replied.

“Fine, sure if you want to be destroyed again.”, Jonouchi replied.

“I e-end my turn.”, Aichi said.

“I draw and I activate Swords of Revealing Light then end my turn”, Yugi said.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“His deck is really good at conserving it’s resources hopefully I can stall for a bit or maybe get him to use up more of his cards.”, Yugi thought.

Aichi’s nervous expression made Yugi smile a bit. He hasn’t had a duel like this in awhile. Where either his own life or the world wasn’t at stake it was rather nice. It was very refreshing having an opponent not try to kill him or use a shadow game. Just a fun duel with a good friend. That was a big appeal of dueling. So, many of his opponents have been enemies recently. He almost forgot that.

“I draw. I s-summon Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands. I activate h-his effect t-to add one r-ritual monster or s-spell to my hand. I c-chose Noble Knights’ Guardian Soul Saver Dragon.”, Aichi said revealing the card before adding it to his hand.

Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands

ATK 1400/DEF 1000

Noble Knights’ Guardian Soul Saver Dragon

( DRAGON / LIGHT/ RITUAL / EFFECT/ ATK : 2500 / DEF : 2000 / LV 8

Effect: You can ritual summon this card with “Savior Dragon Prayer”. This card also counts as a Warrior monster. This card cannot be equipped with equip spells. As long as this monster is on the field your Noble Knight monsters cannot be effected or targeted by your opponents card effects. When you control a Noble Knight monster that is equipped with a Noble Arms equip spell all your Noble Knight monsters gain 300 attack.

Aichi

Hand: 3

“I end my turn.”, Aichi said, finally seeming to calm down.

“Looks like he doesn’t have any equip cards. If he did, he could have easily gotten rid of my swords.”, Yugi though.

“I draw, set one card face down and end my turn.”, Yugi said.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“That’s one turn of the swords.”, Yami said.

“I draw, I set Manju to defense mode and I end my turn.”, Aichi said.

Aichi

Hand: 4

“I draw one card and end my turn.”, Yugi said.

“That’s the second.”, Yami said.

Yugi

Hand: 2

“I draw one card and I set one.”, Aichi said.

Aichi

Hand: 4

“I draw and I summon Big Shield Gardna in defense mode then end my turn.”, Yugi said

Yugi

Hand: 2

“That’s the third.”, Yami said as Yugi moved his swords to the graveyard.

“I draw and I activate Savior Dragon Prayer. I tribute Noble Knight Pellinore and Artorigus from my hand to ritual summon! Noble Knights’ Guardian Soul Saver Dragon!”, Aichi started.

Savior Dragon Prayer

(Ritual Spell)

This card can be used to ritual summon “Noble Knights’ Guardian Soul Saver Dragon”. You must also tribute “Noble Knight” monsters from your hand or field or banish Noble Knight monsters from your graveyard, whose levels equal 8 or more.

Aichi

Hand: 1

“That’s not good.”, Honda commented.

“Soul Saver’s effect activates! When a Noble Knight monster I control is equipped with a Noble Arms spell all my Noble Knight monsters gain 300 attack.”, Aichi said.

Noble Knights’ Guardian Soul Saver Dragon

ATK 2500->2800

Noble Knight Drystan

ATK 1800->2100

“I bring Manju to attack mode and attack Gardna with Soul Saver!”, Aichi declared.

“Uh no that’s enough attack points to end the duel!”, Honda said.

“I attack you directly with Manju!”, Aichi declared.

Yugi LP 2800->1400

“You can do it brother!”, Emi cheered.

“Then I attack you with Drystan!”, Aichi declared.

“Let’s go bro!”, Kamui cheered.

“I activate my trap Nutrient Z! If I would take 2000 or more battle damage I gain 4000 before the damage is subtracted from my life points.”, Yugi countered.

Yugi LP 1400->5400

Yugi LP 5400->3300

“He managed to survive. You’ll get him next turn bro!”, Kamui said.

“I end my turn. Heh I really thought I had you there.”, Aichi said.

“I draw! If I didn’t have that trap I’d be done for. I’ve gotta stay on my toes if I’m going to win this.”, Yugi said.

Yugi

Hand:3

“I summon Marshmellon in defense mode and I set one card facedown. I end my turn.”, Yugi continued.

Marshmellon

ATK 300/ DEF 500

Yugi

Hand: 1

“I draw and I activate my face down spell Glory of the Noble Knights! I can target one of my Noble Knight monsters and equip one equip spell from my deck! I chose Noble Arms Caliburn and I activate it effect to gain 500 life points.”, Aichi started.

Aichi

Hand: 2

Aichi LP 3200->3700

“That triggers Drystan’s effect allowing me to destroy Marshmellon!”, Aichi continued.

“Now he only has his two facedowns!”, Honda said.

“Would you guys stop stating the obvious?”, Misaki asked.

“Then I switch Manju to defense mode and attack you directly!”, Aichi declared.

“I activate my trap! A Hero Emerges you must select one card in my hand and if it’s a monster I can special summon it.”, Yugi countered.

“You only have one so I choose it.”, Aichi replied.

“It is Dark Magician of Chaos.”, Yugi said as he revealed the card and special summoned it.

Dark Magician of Chaos

ATK 2800/ DEF 2600

Yugi

Hand: 0

“When it’s normal or special summoned I can add one spell from my graveyard to my hand! I chose Pot of Greed!”, Yugi said.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“I attack your monster with Soul Saver!”, Aichi declared.

The two monsters destroyed each other due to their equal attack.

“Then I attack you directly with Drystan!”, Aichi declared.

Yugi LP 3300->1000

“Now, I end my turn.”, Aichi said.

“I draw and activate Pot of Greed allowing me to draw 2 cards!”, Yugi started.

Yugi

Hand: 3

“I activate Soul Exchange allowing me to tribute your Drystan to summon Dark Magician Girl. Since Dark Magician is in the graveyard she gains 300 attack. However, unfortunately I can’t attack the turn I use Soul Exchange.”, Yugi continued.

Dark Magician Girl ATK 2000->2300

Yugi

Hand: 1

“I end my turn.”, Yugi said.

“I draw!”, Aichi said.

Aichi

Hand: 3

“Okay, I activate the effect of Until Noble Arms Are Needed Again from my graveyard! I banish it to special summon a Noble Knight monster on my field or in my graveyard! I chose Ignoble Knight Blaster Dark! Stand up my avatar!”, Aichi said as a few of them looked a bit nervous when Aichi summoned the dark counterpart of his ace.

Ignoble Knight Blaster Dark

( WARRIOR / DARK / EFFECT/ ATK : 2100 / DEF : 1500 / LV 5

Effect: When this monster is summoned or special summoned you can select one Noble Arms equip spell from your graveyard to equip to it. Once per turn, this card is summoned or special summoned you can tribute one monster you control to destroy one card your opponent controls.)

“Now, I activate my trap Call of the Haunted to resurrect Blaster Blade!”, Aichi continued.

The two knights of light and shadow were side by side contrasting the other like opposite chess pieces.

“It’s coming. The card that beat Ren.”, Yami said.

“I activate Polymerization using Blaster Blade and Blaster Dark as material to fusion summon True Noble Knight Majesty Lord Blaster! Stand up my avatar of light and shadow!”, Aichi continued.

Aichi

Hand: 2

True Noble Knight Majesty Lord Blaster

( WARRIOR / LIGHT / FUSION / EFFECT/ ATK : 3300 / LV 10

1 light warrior monster + 1 dark warrior monster

If a “Blaster Blade” monster and “Blaster Dark” monster are used as materials, this card gains 1000 attack and deals double battle damage. This card also counts as a dark monster. You can tribute one equip spell card you control to destroy all cards your opponent controls.)

“Due to its effect when Blaster Blade and Blaster Dark are used as materials it gains 1000 attack and does double battle damage. I activate Wingal’s effect from the graveyard to equip it to Majesty Lord Blaster. I activate its effect tributing Wingal to destroy all the cards you control!”, Aichi explained.

True Noble Knight Majesty Lord Blaster

ATK 3300->4300

“Good thing for me that triggers my trap, Waking the Dragon! When it’s destroyed I can special summon one monster from my fusion deck or deck ignoring its summoning conditions when it's destroyed by my opponent’s card effect! I chose Gaia the Magical Knight of Dragons! I activate its effect and it loses 2600 attacks to destroy your Majesty Lord Blaster!”, Yugi countered.

Gaia the Magical Knight of Dragons

ATK 2600->0

“Man, that’s crazy he couldn’t even take that thing down with one of the god cards in that situation.”, Honda commented.

“And now he’s wide open. You just need to summon a monster. Come on bro get him!”, Kamui cheered.

“I bring Manju to attack mode and I attack Gaia.”, Aichi declared.

“I activate Kuriboh’s in hand effect to reduce the damage to 0.”, Yugi countered.

“I end my turn. Dang, I really thought I finally got it when I drew Polymerization.”, Aichi said before sighing.

“That was way too close! I had hardly any cards in my fusion deck or deck that could deal with that card. Even ifI had the god cards in my deck they would be useless.”, Yugi thought.

“I draw. ”, Yugi said.

Yugi

Hand: 1

“I summon the Obnoxious Celtic Guard!”, Yugi said.

Obnoxious Celtic Guard

ATK 1400/ DEF 1200
