SPOILERS ABOUND! A blog where I post my first impressions of any game/anime/etc I experience for the first time, because I'm hilarious. Theories everywhere, and theories may end up being spoilers but they could also end up being completely wrong as well.

That's The Face. I will not elaborate. Also shoutout to Cinammon Roll Astral for this precious line:

Yeah, dude. How did *you* think they were getting that lucky if you didn't suspect cheating?

[newgameplaybyplay]

Look there's just so much in this show.

I gripe, but it is a fun little watch. Very low-stakes, casual viewing...not unlike a sticom. At least, right now. I *am* hoping we get into something a little bigger than one-off problems eventually.

They're making shark a literal damsel in distress how much more on the nose can you get

[newgameplaybyplay]

A little self-aware humour, here?

[newgameplaybyplay]

Sorry but not really.

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️

But also, can you hide cards up your sleeve to cheat at duels?

[newgameplaybyplay]

Because you both just so happened to have level 5 monsters in your hand? Assuming here you didn't get insanely lucky, your decks must be absolute dogcrap if you stuff them full of level 5 monsters to make sure you can pull this off. This duel would be over in a heartbeat if you weren't dueling Yuma, notorious shit duelist.

Literal adults.

I mean I get it, it's for kids, but wow, watching this as an adult is 🙄

[newgameplaybyplay]

Well, it LOOKS like you betrayed your gang because your boyfriend was gonna duel two on one like a moron and you're realizing you're a bakadere so you're into that.

But please, what's your excuse?

Sure, Shark. Bonus points for literal adults talking like children.

"You don't LIKE US? Well...well...well, we don't like you EITHER! ...Poopy head!"

I'm sorry what is this show.

Aliya: This is Elboreth. My home.

Some Elboretian rando: Safe travels to you! ...Or die on Iox, I don't care.

😐

I see where she gets it from.

Playing Heaven's Vault be like:

And somehow the kid who loses every duel ever is going to win against a gang member possessed by a number card.

[newgameplaybyplay]

Wow, it sure is lucky that Yuma secretly used a number card for selfish reasons and gave Bronk a reason to be upset. Can you imagine if Bronk was upset because Yuma genuinely didn't want his friend in a gang? How wild would that be

Current opinion on the Pyre canon: No. Fuck you. Tariq lives in the Downside with Volfred, the Rites never end, they reunite the Commonwealth and the Downside under one peaceful name and people can travel to and from freely, and everyone lives happily ever after. Tariq and Volfred are married. Happily.

Any other canon does not exist 😌

[newgameplaybyplay]

Are YOU okay???? Is that normally how eggs behave??

[newgameplaybyplay]

And you just...know this? Or did you look it up to help your uh...fellow low-rank gang member.

[newgameplaybyplay]

Astral I don't think that's a 'state of mind' thing, I think that's just how he is.
