Vol. 8 Ch. 337: Over a Different River

#yu gi oh#ygo dm#worse manga AU#yugi mutou#yami yugi#katsuya jonouchi#joey wheeler#seto kaiba#maximillion pegasus#ryuji otogi#duke devlin#marik ishtar#ryou bakura#its poster. genuinely do enjoy how they wear more normal clothes the higher up this piece it goes#no joke doing tones for bakura was so funny I blocked out the stripes on his shirt and went check manga ref and. thats it thats all there i#debated putting him in a cloak like that one he wore the night yuugi got robbed but ultimately decided against it#also debated putting him in cosplay foam armor but also put that away. even tho itd be Very funny#marik with the y2k werewolf cut is so real like thats a teenager alright. he would make that decision thats correct#actually also from the same chapter I pulled refs for bakura I also pulled refs for otogi and. he was for sure wearing a fishnet tank huh#gods ygo owns. what series before or since#tbh all things considered i might change pegasus' hair back to like in canon. bc thats just a really clean and perfectly conveyed silhouett#the tails I will 100% keep bc it's extremely tacky AND it provides some fun trails for movements. but the hair. I think abt it#kaiba's doc ock arms Are modeled after the blue eyes white dragon bc it's the obvious choice#okay thats it for this one i think. in the middle of drawing this i was like huh this is shaping up to look like a chapter cover of a sort#hence the caption. thats fun im having fun with the all-screentone thing rn#well. i eat now. and then sleep. we enjoy sustenance

i like that the power scaling in the worse manga AU goes a classmate → a biotech genius with four extra machine arms → a self-engineered "perfect life form" → a circus gymnast → a tour guide → a LARPer

#not art#in order: jonouchi kaiba pegasus otogi marik and bakura#scribbled down a composition for a like. ensemble adversarial presences poster and thus forced myself to#figure out a general design for most of these people lmao#not included here but should be is yami who is You (Bad Ending)#most of these threads/designs i pretty much just follow like the easiest/funniest option lmao#like pegasus i think pretty much is straight up a vampire. a re8 kinda vampire but still a vampire#kaiba is like.... doc ock if the tech is sheddable#(he is also probably way worse bc he never got to play touys again until yuugi. he's whimsiless to an abhorrent level)#marik is. maybe not worse but still horrid in a different direction. he got a semi-normal life after he killed his dad#and then the puzzle rang and he voluntarily threw all that shit away bc through all of it nothing's stopped the pain#therapy would solve a decent amount of ygo turns out. anyways uhhh#bakura being a LARPer is just funny but also I love the millenium world being a ttrpg thing too much to let it go#and also it'd kinda mirror yuugi (sugoroku was a theater stunt coordinator and now he runs a costume warehouse)#great setup for a This Gun Prop Is Actually A Safety Violation joke and nothing else. thats it thanks boys#this poster is taking shape but it Is funny how everyone is a highschooler and then pegasus is also there#granted I relearned on the reread he was 24 when bakura killed him which makes him a little toddler to me#and also explains why he drinks wine while reading comic that's 24yo behavior#pegasus is so fucking funny I love him. he pisses absolutely everyone off and then bakura kills him for real and he never shows up again#well. except for the ygo R spinoff where tenma yako cannot shut the fuck up about him. its great. why am I talking abt pegasus alluvasudden

dungeon dice monster/black crown would be so fucked up in the worse manga. you go to the circus and the aerialist brings you backstage and flings you at walls repeatedly

#yugioh#ygo dm#yugi mutou#ryuji otogi#duke devlin#worse manga AU#porting over tags from the wip post (which is now anihilated) ->#otogi's an aerialist btw. bc his dad's a clown and his home's a big top and his life's a fucking circus#(sugoroku was a stuntman and theater fight choreographer before he retired. now he runs a costume warehouse)#(an actor and a clown beefing leading to generational grudge is the funniest thing to me actually so)#end ported tags. anyways its Insane how ddm is Like that like im not alone right. the way the devil's board game is drawn#straight up just so jonouchi has a convenient tool to pry off the puzzle. master storytelling. i love yugioh#the thing is in this AU they would just be beating each others up and all of the tension would be on collecting the puzzle pieces#so it would be way more boring. and even more melodramatic. and so fucking much choreographing#I did this much and like it but damn if it didnt tire me out lmao#the way yuugi keeps going like im so sorry other me i let them break your heart its my fault this happened. girl have a sense of self#he makes me insane. I think in this AU he knows and acknowledges that being nonviolent is a conscious and selfish choice#that he makes Because he will never be more violent than the worst person in domino but he can be the one least likely to strike#in his immediate vicinity. and then yami shows up like no no babe you Are capable of transcendental violence!#you just have to pickle in a puzzle being slowly broken down by vengeful sacrificial ghosts for three thousand years <3#(and go through completely dehumanizing lifelong training beforehand i think but he doesn't know that. yet)#anyways I think the other thing with worse manga ddm/black crown arc is if yuugi isn't in contact with the puzzle then#it can't heal him. so he Will be risking some limbs and such in that circus#thats all i go sleep now. goobaba. have a time and enjoy#!

AU in which ygo is a worse series that's about punching people or smthing

#yugioh#ygo dm#yugi mutou#yami yugi#not tagging atem yet bc not super sure if he's like Atem atem lol#katsuya jonouchi#puzzleshipping#wishshipping#feathershipping#listen I have literally nothing real abt this hashed out yet and tbh i just wanna draw the funney designs but. I Still Know#that yami sees the way yuugi repeatedly offers jou his specific kind of love and is in turn in love with that is like#the big emotional link of this lol#worse manga AU#<- name of this thing. and im serious abt it too u'll see#this concept inherently doesnt have far to go its truly whatever BUT at the same time it Is interesting to me#to cut straight through the game stuff and go like. okay so what if the violence isnt magical and evil-banishing#what if yami yuugi's just good at fighting and he breaks peoples faces and thats his trade. what would yuugi do abt it#I think yuugi misattributing the compassion burnout he doesn't let show outside to yami and then Immediately#turning around to try and fix yami would be very funny. and also fucked up#lmao genuinely if this concept isnt formatted and written as a melodramatic yaoi manga then it would have just no leg to stand on#like event-wise literally what would happen. what is there. the 3587945784th manga about punching people with magic involved lol#but also the yuugi & yami designs I made for this (started on that first style test swing lol) are just fun as hells to draw so#shrugs I will probably keep drawing em. esp yami he is SO fun to just scribble like this#with the manga page redraw/study pretty much all the sound effects and dialogue are lifted from the original pages#except for the top of the 2nd page which I did rewrite. did the minimum required tbh#is it bad to kick peoples teeth in? four teens and a ghost attempt to answer this absolutist question for their whole adolescence more at 8#oh yeah the redraw pages read right to left btw. authenticity (strikes a pose)

i do rly enjoy atem's story at the point of bakura showing up specifically like ur so double triple amnesiac u just got the barest idea ur your own person and the one guy who knows who you are hates you SO much like resoundingly answering ur question of who u were with "a bitchass motherfucker who sucks shit and is so ass I am STILL here three thousand years later hating you. all your loved ones died and faded with time and your hater is still here because you're that bad. you're so shit the universe bent time and space to let me be here to serve you the hate you deserve. I made it my mission to survive this long to be able to be the one to kill you and laugh at you when you die for real because that's your righteous place in history" atem's political training must've been solid to come out of that the way he did if it were me I would already be on the floor
