20 years later I finally realized that the reason Yugi wears that fucking leather bdsm collar is so the 8lb gold neckweight millenium puzzle rope/chain doesn’t shred the fuck out of his neck.
For fucks sake… we all just assumed Yami had some leather fetish
I wanted to say Yugi was wearing it before but I pulled out my manga and the leather collar DOES only show up after the Puzzle is solved- but also only when Yami takes over. So… Clearly it is Yugi’s and he wore it on occasion for it to be there in the first place but Yami put it on to protect his vessle and soon to be best friend.
listen. what if the gods decided to adopt the dorms as their shrines?
i think about this a lot.

Seto Kaiba is younger than Yuugi Mutoh by four months.
That is all!
Seein lots of tags and comments on this post to the tune of “that can’t possibly be right” or “wait I thought he was 18 during Battle City” or “I’m glad the anime aged him up then,” so friendly reminder that Seto Kaiba is an underage kid at every single point in the main DM storyline, in every single continuity (except the 4Kids dub, but even then it’s not clear if they actually meant to age him up or if they just added a throwaway line without thinking about the math)
He just really wants to be perceived as an adult, and if you bought it then he has successfully Bamboozled you
Friendly reminder that he was classmates with Yuugi in the manga and anime, so it’s kinda implied they’re around the same age.
Okay but if there is ever a time for a ‘they are all good friends’ kind of fanon AU story then please… please have them at a lunchroom table and realize that they are all basically a few months older than Seto and suddenly all start calling him the baby of the group. Because this is what friends do.
Yugi: Do you guys want to hang out after school at my place? Seto: I guess. I mean you do owe me a rematch and- Joey: Won’t dat be past ya curfew? Seto: What? No?? Tristan: That’s right! Maybe one of us should walk the baby home after school. Make sure he get’s there safe. Seto: I’m not a baby! We’re the same age! Joey: Aww- he thinks he’s a grown up! Anzu: Guys, let up. Seto: Thank you. Anzu: After all, children need respect too. Seto: UGHH
In the Japanese version of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, when we learn about Anzu wanting to be a dancer and working a part-time job at a fast food place so that she can save up money, she freaks out when Yuugi and Jounouchi find out at first because their school forbids it’s students from having part-time jobs (which is a thing in Japan) and so she’s worried that they might tell someone from school and get her expelled.
But in the 4Kids dub, since American school staff aren’t weirdly involved with their student’s lives outside of school (like they are in Japan and let me tell you, I could talk about that for a while), they changed it to Tea thinking “You have to be at least 18 to work here!” so in this case, she was worried that they’d tell her job management and get her fired.
But that leaves us with the greatest story never told: In order to get hired for that job in the first place, Tea would have needed a fake ID.
I brought this up with my mom and she said: “Well, which of her friends is good with computers? They could’ve helped her.” And we were both quiet for a minute before my mom said “Oh. That must have been an interesting conversation.” And I was like “wat?”
And my mom just looked at me and said “When Tea talked Kaiba into make her a fake ID.”
The thing is for this not the ‘secret friends’ everyone else is talking about in the comments but rather that Seto is a clever boy at the time and trained to use anyone to fit a means end so in the case of a fake ID I think he would have no problem doing that for a girl but there is a catch as there is always a catch.
Anzu is going to owe him a favor later and seeing that Seto has everything he could want and he isn’t sexual (because face it Anzu would ask as she’s leery of the guys she meets for good reason given all the sexual harrassment she gets in the series and would be relieved to know that favor isn’t sex) she would agree. And just like that it would be super easy to get her to work for him in Death Tower T to add salt in the wound for Yugi and company. (He just has to leave out that she is aiding in their death. After all it’s just a harmless game Anzu~)
a weirdly specific thing the 2000s era yugioh fandom did
differentiate between marik and yami marik by calling one of them marik and the other malik
and it was never fucking consistent who was who
Malik = Hikari
Marik = Yami.
It was consistant till a bit later about around when the abridged series was cropping up and the newer fans got super confused and decided to change everything.
