what I like about Yugi is that he is definitely in that "kind non-violent all-loving friendships-everyone" protagonist archetype but most of the time we expect those sorts of characters to wear their hearts on their sleeves or solve their problems via communication and understanding, whereas one of Yugi Muto's defining character traits is that he'd rather die than admit he has a problem. you can pour soup directly in his lap and he'll be like "oh that's okay ^_^" while internally burning with such an unquenchable incandescent rage at you that 30 minutes later his evil shadow self confronts you in a back alley and forces you to play something called Knife Pogs (a game he just made up that's like Pogs but the pogs are knives so every time you hit the stack a bunch of knives fly out and stab you in the kneecaps). so that's fun
Remember when Yugi's class lost their good school fair table to another class because a bully was a bit overbearing about it so Yami invented Gunpowder Air Hockey and blew him up? That was great. I don't think they'd introduced the card game yet at that point.
#dont forget the part about gunpowder air hockey where the puck was made of ice with a gunpowder core and it was on a hot plate#so A: every second spent with it in play it was melting#and B: every single hit chipped away at the ice#second favorite yugioh moment#only second to the taser torture scene#yugioh
The taser torture scene was so cool he fuckin fried those motherfuckers
#what the fuck is the plot of yugioh
Oh you do not want to get into something as esoteric as the plot
#I can't tell if this is true or a bit
I found a video about it
