I Went On A Manga Binge

So you don’t have to

For those of you who have wisely avoided the shreds of it I’ve left around the blog thus-far, I had some weird notion to go re-experience Yu-Gi-Oh uuuuuh a week ago? We’ll go with that. Time is meaningless.

I’d been able to read a good portion of the early manga at the end of highschool, and somewhere in my stacks and stacks of paper is fanart from this dark time, so you know I cared. I also still own a Dark Magician action figure somehow, so. I’d also watched a large portion of the anime with my brother because it had been laced with some kind of crack and we couldn’t look away? I remember when we both were just like shit, wait, don’t change the channel, I can’t stop looking at it. And the next thing we knew we were waiting for new episodes and I was doing research on the Japanese original because I was that kid.
