Decorated my office calendar with some of the stickers I bought from another Korean Yugioh fan artist. Added some silly doodles too😆

I've wasted like 10K+ yen just to get these card game geeks from claw machines in Ikebukuro, Tokyo...... still they turned out to be worth the money🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

Among the rough sketches I've drawn thus far for my doujinshi, I just found this one well represents one of my favorite prideship dynamics😊

I'm not a big fan of the post-DSOD hypothesis that Kaiba goes back in time instead of the afterlife. It's just canonically incorrect. Still, the idea is in its own way too cool and tempting not to draw any fan art out of...🥹

Bought these dueling beauties. They together seriously look like the most formidable duo in the entirety of the solar system that no one should ever think of trifling with🥹❤️

I'm such an attention seeker so let me spoil one drafted panel from my prideshipping doujinshi I'm working on😊

I can't tell everything at this point but it's about Atem spilling the beans that he actually wanted Kaiba to mess things around. All will be revealed once the book is out! I set the tentative deadline as late April 2025🔥🔥🔥🔥

Don't let your heart falter

Some of my rough sketches currently in the pipeline☺️ You'll see how they'll turn out in one way or another!

My initial plan was to finish painting this work by no later than today to celebrate the re-release of the DSoD in Korea......😭 At least I've got linework done. I'm going to paint this through the course of this week🥹

I went to the special re-release event of Yugioh the DSOD in Seoul, South Korea🥹😍

I've never had so much fun in many days🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

It's the second day of the event at the moment I'm writing this post. I joined yesterday morning to be some of the first ones to get to the pop-up store for the event. I woke up at about 5 am to go to the event venue, and by the time I arrived there was already dozens of fans queueing for the pop-up store 😂 Many items will have been sold out by now.....

These are event-exclusive desk mats that many Yugioh fans, especially me and my fellow prideshippers have so much been looking forward to. Just look at these enthralling beauties...🥹🥹 Korean Yugioh marketers know what fans want and need! I love them so much I could kiss every one of them like I could do to Atem and Kaiba😘🥹

The shop also had in stock some official Japanese merches that hadn't been available in Korea🥹🥹 My pride pandas and Joey! 😘😍

Of course, Yugioh shops are nothing without cards and related products😂 I also bought a quarter century edition Movie Pack that consisted of these items shown above.

After watching the movie, Some of my fellow prideshippers and I gathered to have lunch together. What we had in common was that we've watched the DSOD like hundreds of times😂, INCLUDING visiting Japan in 2016 ourselves just to watch the Japanese original, and yet still found this renewed viewing experience exciting, eye-opening, and heart-throbbing😭😭

We had so much fun having a fruitful discussion on the most relevant and pressing questions for humanity such as: just how much Kaiba loves Atem; how Kaiba's childhood trauma has affected his obssession for Atem; what a sweet darling the Korean-dubbed Kaiba is compared to the Japanese original; and how Atem has actually been loving Kaiba back🥹😍

Things are smooth-sailing thus far... At this rate I can finish this piece by the end of this week.

What I love so much about Kaiba, among many things, is that no matter how sinister I make his grin look he is definitely not a villain🤣🤣 He's just full of himself and has a homosexual obsession with Atem😂😂

Yugioh the DSOD is getting a special re-release in Seoul, Korea😭😍🎉🎉🎊🎊

The official Korean account says there will also be a pop-up merch booth in the cinema, where visitors can buy limited edition merchandises including the gayest possible desk mat as shown above😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Korean prideshippers will never want to miss out this opportunity🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

You'd like to know the secret: bigger man-tiddies often mean stronger alpha male dominance. Atem has big pecs because he's THE Pharaoh🥰 Meanwhile, Kaiba loves to rail Atem. That's why Kaiba has bigger titties than Atem's, both canonically (as in the DSOD) and headcanonically😏😏

It's 12-year-old Seto in my prideshipping doujinshi I'm working on. What's with his graduation hat--all will be revealed once the book is out ;-)

Important change of plan

A bunch of disgusting Korean male pedophiles had the nutsacks to dare to sell, display, and market fictional child p**nographic work at an in-person video game con event in broad daylight. The police is investigating this case. As a ramification, it looks like Korean otakus in general are, for the time being, no longer able to sell any NSFW fanmade work at local in-person fan conferences.

In light of this disturbing circumstance, I'm going to make two versions of my prideshipping doujinshi: a PG-13 version and the original NSFW version. The PG-13 version is simply the original version minus gay sex scenes of Kaiba/Atem.

Fortunately, the drafted storyline of my doujinshi can still roll without NSFW scenes. On the bright side, this means I can share my prideship fan comic book with more fellow Yugioh fans.....😂😭
