I only ever watched the OG anime (as it aired in America, dubbed, lmao) and realize that this is barely scraping the iceberg of the fandom. I spent like 2001-2003 reading all the puppyshipping on ff.net, good times.

I lived in a weeaboo desert so it was crazy to learn the actual cardgame was actually (and still is) super popular years later.

OG anime dub is one of the few "good dubs" imo and a rare case of one that improves my viewing experience. Everyone us hamming it up and having a great time. It's my primary interaction with the franchise as well.

I know there are fujos who watch every single iteration even up till now, and I don't think I could do it. I've seen bits of GX and 5DS, but they just don't have the same strong core cast, and charm.

Any of you ever watch the Abridged Series meme videos? Yami Malik and Yami Bakura were played gay and the creator of it actually wrote adult fanfiction of the two. Wild to think about years later given how mainstream popular it was in the fandom not just the fujo side.

That being said Bakura x Bakura is my preferred ship.

I love how obsessed Seto was with Yami. He basically dedicated the rest of his life to chasing the joy he found when dueling him especially factoring in the (dubiously canon) movies.

Yugi is really sweet and I love how he contrasts with Yami. I think its really funny as well to imagine how people not in his immediate circle of friends think when going straight from the strict Yami to the cute somewhat passive Yugi after a match.

Watching this now since I missed out as a child because I stuck to my girly shows. Weevil is really cute and Pegasus is an interesting villain. The 4kids dub is worrying me though because they always edit and cut shit out

Fuck yeah, Shrimpshipping is my Yu-gi-oh! OTP easily, especially during the later Seal of Oricalcos arc. They just have a cute little dynamic and I'm glad there is a small but dedicated shipping community for them.

I like the 4kids dub more than the original actually, blasphemy I know. It joins Pokemon in nostalgia breaking through my dislike of dubs. The 4kids cast are actually great voice actors for campy kids shows, its just the censorship which ruins their works like on One Piece which they shouldn'tbe dubbing in the first place.

Yu-gi-oh's dub does have alterations to the original if I recall correctly, besides removing guns in some scenes so it can play on American children's television they downplay Joey and Kaiba's abusive households, and inventing the "Shadow Realm" so characters wouldn't die.

It's clearly different, but again I still prefer it, maybe I wouldn't if I didn't grow up on it but I did.

I wish there were more puppyshipping works focusing on Kaiba and Joey bonding over their terrible fathers, specially ones where Kaiba realizes Joey's father is abusive and lets him stay at the mansion. While they argue a lot in canon I do think Seto's big brother instincts would kick in if he ever realized just how terrible Joey's home life was

I actually saw something like this the other day.
https://www.pixiv(.)net/en/artworks/123061039

I would love some puppyshipping hurt and comfort content… But sadly it's an old ship so it has a smaller audience and most people only characterize Joey as a carefree, joke character even though he has so much more to work with.

Very nice nonna, wish the whole thing was available since this is the exact vibe I'm looking for.

>most people only characterize Joey as a carefree, joke character even though he has so much more to work with

I get seeing him as carefree since he can be, but the series goes out of it's way to give him a character arc so that sounds like a reading comprehension failure, not that the series is heavy or angsty but the first iteration at least has well-written character's with good struggles despite the TCG premise.

It's kind of fascinating how Yu-gi-oh! The anime seems to be less popular than the TCG now. The OG is a force to be reckoned with in terms of cultural relevance and a fujo classic, I know fans of GX and 5Ds even though I've never seen either, but I hardly see the newer seasons brough up at all. In a way it's a blessing that almost all fan content is for the series I actually like, on the other it makes me sad that it's a symbol that this franchise's day in the spotlight has been over for a while.

A little off-topic, but it makes me wonder how current kids engage with anime compared to how millennials/gen Z did
Do kids outside of Japan watch children's anime at all? VRAINS and Sevens hardly get brought up, but even for how popular something like Yo-kai Watch was in Japan, it wasn't big enough in the West to even get the last game localized
A lot of fandoms in that sphere seem carried by nostalgia without any influx of new fans, which is unfortunate

A lot of that probably has to do with the fact that kids today don't watch television anymore. I'm an elementary teacher and while new animated movies are usually popular I rarely hear any TV shows brought up. Youtube-bait horror games are the new Saturday morning cartoons and it's very sad.

>A lot of fandoms in that sphere seem carried by nostalgia without any influx of new fans, which is unfortunate

I think you're right. No one new is getting into Digimon in the current year its mainly carried by nostalgia. Yugioh, at least the first iteration, has a legitimately good plot though and doesn't feel like an advertisement but I can see why someone with no prior attachment wouldn't want to give it a try since as an outsider the whole sphere it's in looks cheap and childish.
