#febygochallenge

Introducing: #YGOSummer !!

Since the Feb YGO Challenge was such a hit, I thought I’d do another challenge--this one summer themed! Unlike the last challenge, I shortened this one and didn’t put any due dates or time limits. Summer is the time of fun and relaxation; why make it super complicated?

Rules are simple: create anything you want with any yugioh characters you want--just follow one of the themes! Take your time and enjoy all the yugiohs! Please use the hashtag #ygosummer so I can see and reblog all your wonderful drawings, stories, lists, videos, etc! 

Reposting to other sites is fine; just please not on tumblr. You can reblog this photo.

Have fun! (Explanations of each theme are under the cut)

Day 24

Favorite DSOD moment.

Well, looks like it’s time for me to talk about this scene more in depth.

I remember back when the first teaser was out, and we all noticed what we now know is virtual Atem walking down the aisle.  We were all wondering if it was really him, and people either wanted him to come back because we all miss him, or didn’t because we wanted to see how much Yugi has grown without him.

For me, I feel like DSoD handled this well for both sides.  He did come back to help Yugi and we have this moment, yet he only came back when Yugi was at his wits end, so Yugi still got to shine throughout this movie.

Next, I made this post early in January wondering about whether 4kids would put dialogue in this scene, since I know that’s something they like to do (ex. The clown leading Yugi to Arkana).  I’m glad that they didn’t, at least nothing out loud.  This symbolizes the fact that even though Atem came back to help Yugi, he still doesn’t belong in their dimension because he’s dead.

However, in the next scene with his friends when Tea asks him about Atem, Yugi responds something along the lines of, “He’s doing fine, and he wishes us the best.” (Not sure if that’s the actual quote, but its similar), showing that they in fact did communicate to each other.  I believe that either they spoke out through their hearts, or when Atem semi-possessed Yugi’s body (Yes, I’m saying semi-possessed, I’ll get into that another time) their mind link reestablished and was still present until Atem left.  Either way, I truly believe that somehow they were about to hear each other’s voices, and for me that just makes this scene even more emotional.

To be honest, I was a little upset that they didn’t hug.  I mean, they had a great opportunity here for one.  But that’s just a nitpick and it didn’t affect my overall thoughts on this scene. (Besides, I wrote my own version a while back to cheer me up)

And lastly, my inner puzzleshipping absolutely loves this scene and needs to make this statement. With everything these two went through, and the fact that Atem actually returned to help Yugi… these two have to see each other again when Yugi naturally goes to the afterlife, they have to.

Yugi and Atem Reunite

There are so many great moments in this movie! But my favorite part, hands down, was seeing Yugi and Atem together again. It was a beautiful moment! 

I had a pretty hard time deciding on that one, actually. There were two moments in that movie that took my breath away, gave me shivers and made me smile. Two moments that made my so very very happy.

As someone who’s been a Puzzleshipper for almost 9 years, I really loved the silent bittersweet moment between Yugi and Atem/u. It made me happy, it made my heart ache for them and it was just so perfect. Atem/u coming back to help Yugi out and they obviously had their mind link restored for this short time and communicated and I loved how it was just so very private that even we, the viewers, weren’t allowed to hear it. It was just for the two of them.

But.

I really need to give the favourite moment to the moment where Yugi stood up to Kaiba and made him back off. It was epic, it was badass it made me shiver and it made me so, so, so proud of Yugi. He grew so much and it was a delight seeing him like that. This moment showed everything I wanted for Yugi in that movie and my expectations were met in that regard.
