Storytime: Yu-Gi-Oh! - Road to Darkside of Dimensions

Since there's a new YGO movie releasing next month here in the west, I thought it would be cool to dump the original manga which the movie is based off of. For those of you who only ever watched the anime, I highly recommend reading the manga as it's much darker and better written than the anime was imo. There's also none of the fillers you have to deal with. Since the movie is releasing on Jan 27, 2017, I will dump one volume a day leading up to its release.

Today we continue Memory World in volume 37.

Chapter 324

>Palpatine

Relevant.

Nice to see the real Yugi finally playing.

>"Okay, but really this time. Card games."

...

We card games again

Yugi must be thinking:
>Bakura wtf why the gross fleshy duel disk?Can't you use a normal disk you creep.

Chapter 325

...

He has already seen it in the previous volume.

...

As far as I know.

-Budget wasn't used properly due to tons of filler. (40% of DM was filler)
-Gallop was working on GX and Eyeshield 21 at the time
-Development of GX movie was in the works too before it got scrapped

...

>Haha what a shitty monster it has low atk/def stats lol who cares about it's effect
I'm amazed how this has always been a thing, and worse, on the final fucking arc of all things where everyone should have already learned better.

...

...

...

It could have been worse. Marshmallon in the manga doesn't have the real card effect which is once attacked while it is set, it inflicts 1000 damage to the opponent and can't be destroyed in battle. Here, it is just invincible against physical attacks, meaning it can be defeated by magician monsters.

...

...

>inflicts damage equal to twice the ATK
WOW, Joey, no wonder you were going to die in one hit after Panther Warrior killed that thing.

Chapter 326

...

To be fair I don't think Bakura has ever seen Yugi duel. He just thinks of him as a vessel for the pharaoh so he takes him lightly which is kind of the point of this duel too because Yugi demonstrates his growth.

I think Bakura doesn't even scratch Yugi's LP in this duel
what a chump

>"I stole this trick from Marik!"

...

The real card is not as good.

...

>he bitchslapped Zoma away

BASED

...

He thought he didn't need to inflict any damage to win. He went for the milling strategy while summoning monsters to defend him.

...

>"Come play with us, Yugi."

...

more Silent support when?

...

...

Chapter 327

Oh no if only people ran Typhoon!

...

>Yugi plays an indestructible monster and forces Bakura's monsters to attack it
>Bakura gets around this by forcing Yugi to mill his deck

Well something about this seems very familiar.

...

a single MST or holy shit, fucking De-Spell fucks that strategy

...

>Bakura ripped off Atem's strategy and his cards for this duel

thread op:

...

This is the most frustrating thing about YGO. If people ran the most basic staples all these stupid needlessly complicated "deadly" strategies would fall on their face during turn 1.

>Long live the new flesh

...

>inb4 Yugi draws De-Spell next turn or some shit

Imagine that any magic destroying card is among the discarded cards, how will you do? But yeah, Yugi should have put a few of these cards anyway.

that OP is so fucking great

...

...

yeah that is one major complaint I have about most of the duels.So many of them would be over so fast if the protagonist used extremely common cards like Typhoon,Raigeki or Dark Hole.

ITS TIME

...

...

>There's only one card that can break your "undead locked" deck
WRONG

desu this shit was pretty cool.

Funnily enough, the only reason that Raigeki was almost absent during Battle City is that it's one of the cards that are forbidden to use by Kaiba.

BTFO

...

>GG faggot

BTFO

In all fairness, most of those staples are probably a function of the people in charge of the card game needing ways for people to counter shit like this.

nothing personnel, kid

That just makes duels boring and less dramatic for storytelling purposes. I'll just watch real life matches if I want to see duels being played practically.

Chapter 328

Yugi is just as much of a cheater as Yami.Gandora is a monster and that card protects from magic effects so how did his Swordman live?

...

The look on Bakura's face is priceless.

Gandora's original manga effect is: "At the end of the turn Gandora the Dragon of Destruction is Summoned, it goes to the Graveyard. By paying half of the player's Life, all monsters on the field are destroyed by a magical attack, and removed from the game."

It was a magical effect so Magic Barrier works in this case.

he played this card on the swordsman

the card game works differently. Like a spellcaster could destroy marshmallow since it uses spells and physical attacks

>playing a Shadow Game
>playing a TRPG
>playing a military strategy game at the same time
>playing Magic and Wizard at the same time

Shit, this really is the Ultimate RPG. How many levels of gaming is Bakura on right now?

...

The jobbing level apparently.

キタ━━━(゜∀゜)━━━!!

Bakura's face here is priceless
