Puzzleshipping Debate

[egyptmotou]

Ok everyone, thatnks to one of my friends i have been thinking lately, and was wondering, WE NEED PROOF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My friends from ff.net. was asking me some questions about puzzleshipping and why people think it is the most sensable and obvious couple, so this is where you tell me, why do you think it is, and if you give an answer, be able to back it up with proof from the show, lets see what we can come up with

[Yugi]

In my personal opinion it's just how they act toward one another, through what episodes I watched... well that I could actully stand the english dub, Both of them seemed the most open with each other then anyone else, plus there was most times where when Yami actually caused harm to Yugi due to his own desire to win he actually fell into what I would only describe as a very deep depression... now that in my opinion stretches far beyond a friend relationship, it takes a lot to make Yami cry and he cried at least TWICE.

I agree, we all know Yami likes Yugi, it's obvious in the way he acts around the teen, but what evidence is there that Yugi likes Yami. In the show we can see that he obviously has a crush on Tea, though I don't know why (BIG tea hater here), but how can we tell that he likes Yami, the way Yami likes him? This is one thing me and my friend takled about, and really wanna know, I couldn't really give her an answer.

[Yugi]

Ah but think about this, what reason does he have to NOT love Yami? None. What reason does he have TO love him? Several. Yugi started as a lonely and bullied kid who only wanted at least a friend, he gained one in Yami and because of Yami gained so much more. As the series progressed I started noticing a look in Yugi's eyes he only had with Yami but no one else, and Yugi always seemed eager to confide in Yami more then anyone else, not only that but he was willing to allow himself to be taken away instead of Yami, thus sacrificing himself to protect him.

During the battle before he was taken, as Yami strayed from the right path and let his desires take over his judgement Yugi is constantly seen to be almost 'heartbroken' at what is happening in the present time, and again, even though Yami did not listen to him and brushed aside his warnings about playing the card he was still willing to spare Yami's soul from being taken by instead letting himself be taken away.

Also, there are numerous moments I have seen where Yugi seems highly protective of Yami in some cases, I cannot specifically point out one moment but I have seen it, it is obvious Yugi would rather have harm befall himself then to let it hurt Yami.

All in all thats the only proof I need to believe the feeling is mutual.

The Doom saga shows how Yuugi cares for his other self. Yami protects Yuugi. Yuugi wants to protect Yami. Even though he was being a complete bastard during the duel with Raphael, Yuugi kept strong and attempted to keep the darkness from taking over his other self's personality. He was heart broken as seen and mentioned by Yugi. He protected Yami even though he was being a jerk and he gave up his soul. If that isn't enough proof there is also the line he gave in the beginning of the Battle City saga (seen in the Japanese version) In which Yuugi asks Yami about himself and asks him about himself. Yami gets upset and says I don't know anything about myself, etc, etc and eventually leads upon the thing concerning to the search for his memories and that he will eventually have to leave Yuugi in the future. Yuugi gets upset and starts crying and jumps up and says I'll give you my memories. We will make memories together. Then there is also the final duel with Yuugi vs Yami in which Yuugi takes it upon himself to prove how much he cares about his other self in order to make him happy by dueling him.

These are just my observations, but meh.

Thank you, I watch too much of the series for my own good. *grins proudly*

[egyptmotou]

you guys gave some really good proof there, I'm proud (giggles) and I'll make sure to tell all this Kuran-chan when I talk to her via e-mail, I'll give her everyone's reason and proof

[watanabe]

Because ... it just seems right. 'Nuff said.

[KurayaamiAngel]

yuugi looks up to yami as what he would like to be, and so it makes sense. yuugi goes out of his way to save yami as much as he can, even though he didn't have to.

[watanabe]

I can think of them as either lovers or father and son.

Puzzleshipping is real people

Yami and yugi by far have the closest relationship in the show. Also they touch each other so much even i don't touch my best friend as much as they touch each other . When yugi and his friends got their souls taken away i mean look at the way yami reacted it was like his world had ended his was soley focused on yugi in his duel with dartz he was asking only yugi if he was alright even though his other friends were there too what about them? meaning yugi is his priority. Remember in episode 207 where bakura reversed time? Yugi and his friends were going backwards and he was all like yugi dont go!!! Hello what about joey tea and tristan and bobasa they were there too? atem was acting like they aint shit. Also remember how yugi held atems hand? there was no need for that was there you would do that to your partner even the look in yugis eyes conveys the essense of puzzleshipping .Yes i know yugi likes tea and vise versa but look at the way he acted when tea hugged him? Yeah hes shy and whatnot but he didnt look excited surely if his crush was deep he would of hugged her back happily right but remember when atem held him in his arms in episode 163 thats way more deep than tea's hugging-yami was holding yugi but yugi wasnt nervous at all. if it was tea holding him he'd be flipping out like shit you know even whilst yami held yugi the look he was giving him i mean like youve lost your husband or something. remember episode 52? The way yami put his hands over yugi's the way yugi said 'how do i know i wont lose you?' And in the japanese version etc. i mean that shows love and attachment theyre speaking like they're in a relationship. I watched yugioh as a child and even then i thought they were in love the fact that so many people ship it . its not like thats what we were looking for when we first watched yugioh but thier relationship is too obvious

Sorry about spelling i have a messed up android.
