Millennium World has to be my fave arc but god damn does that bittersweet ending hit ya like a ton of bricks😭😭
part of me is kinda thankful Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Season 5 animation was so bad because it alone already inflicted irreparable emotional damage to me so imagine the literal millenium world of hurt I would’ve suffered if the animation wasn’t so goofy-looking that it softened the blow just slightly
finally started reading Millennium World.
Yamis face here....he doesn't want to go, and Yugi is in some form of denial almost? We see later that Yugi does know that Yami has to go to the afterlife at some point, but he kinda just doesn't think about it ever.
Also Yami randomly telling yugi that he'll never forget anything he experienced during his time with Yugi game his friends, he's in a way preparing for what is to come and it's so sad to watch.
and the way yugi breaks down here, he's probably thinking that Yami's gone already, and that he won't see him again. Further reasoning as to why I think they were way too calm about Yami leaving all things considered
This is gonna hurt, wish me luck
I DID IT YAAAAAAY
I tried to change the way I color. I really like it yay
I really don't like the background...
Remember when the anime decided to make the ancient incarnations of the Dark Magician and Ishizu Ishtar an implied romance and never addressed it again?
so... it's done. i finished yu gi oh. it was... definetly an experience, that's for sure but i can say with confidence nd love a very fun one! atem is...dead i guess. he already was but this timeit's like, official and that... is understandable. yugi also has the chance to grow into himself in a way he would never be able to if he kept relying on his other self. i hope atem's found peace in the afterlife and it was a great way to end the series! of course, according to the sopilers ive gotten, it won't stay that way for long...
reading/ watching this alongside arcane was... an experience to say the least and the dual brainrot i am recieving is confusing to say the least lol. i can't help but think of their themes side by side, how they directly conflict each other. arcane is about the destructive potential of love and the violence that breeds from it and yet how important that love is and how it is worth fighting for. it's also very morally grey and touches on themes of redemption. yu gi oh is about learning kindness (atem) and the eternal battle between love and hate, how it's better to love and search for revenge and find comfort in the darkness. in that way, it is a timeless tale. And of course it is about the constructive effects of love and friendship and the strength of community and others we can rely on. what we can see but remains unseen... it is a question with many answers. one's own heart and self. friendship. the next card you draw, everything. it's also very much a coming of age story, for both yugi and jounouchi who have fantastic character arcs. it's definetly simpler (and the quality can't really be compared) than arcane and quite straightforward but the ideas it brings to the table and communicates hold the same significance nad merit (well pre memory world and post s0) and while in different ways, both speak of empathy and love as some of the most important parts of the human experience. it's... fascinating and hopeful and the love for the project is clear in both and the themes carry over to the audience well. it's sweet <3
