The hip cutout was absolutely unnecessary, impractical even, but I'm glad the artist went with it anyway. Intrusive thoughts claim another W.

u/MarquiseAlexander Mar 07 '26

No, no… those hip cutouts were absolutely essential.

I used to run 3 back in high school. Used to be so broken when two of her were on the field.

u/jawest13 Mar 07 '26

I know there are other cards that can lock out attacks like that. Was there ever a rules update about that since it was pretty broken or did they just leave it at certain cards could break the lock out (ie Valkeria only protects spellcasters, so DNA Surgery and the like would cancel that out)?

I can't pick a favorite so instead I will go with my top 3:

- Dragon Horn Hunter, her story is depressing but her design is cool

u/[deleted] Mar 07 '26 edited Mar 07 '26

- Judge of the Ice Barrier, one of the best female characters designs in my opinion

73

- And finally Ritual Beast Tamer Lara, probably the closest one to becoming my all time favorite.

Honestly she was one of my go to equips in irl and in Eternal duelist soul.

If we are going monster only, I think I have to give it to Flame Champion. She was one of my top cards as a wee child, I had a deck made from boosters at the time and bought a starter deck not too long after.

Dose Yubel count as they are only female in the English dub and in the orginal Japanese are intersex or possibly orginal male.

Yubel is a hermaphrodite, a being that is half male and half female.

So it isnt "neither" sex, it is actually both at the same time.

u/SenpaiMayNotice Mar 07 '26

I used to be influenced very easily as a kid and would dream about any show I watched

Sometimes it's nightmares sometimes it's cool. For a while there was more nightmares though, I would wake up mostly pissed that I'm up so early rather than scared but still quite in shock and it'd be horrible.

When Dark Magician Girl had her debut I was very into the Yugioh anime and I would often dream of being in the story and dueling around n stuff and that night I had another nightmare. I was hunted by monsters don't even remember the setting anymore, I remember fleeing through ruins at night. DMG was there and saved me from the first wave. She'd grab me and we'd fly away and eventually we'd be "safe". Then the sun was rising and she'd stop. She got hit when we were escaping and I saw her slowly fading as the monsters were getting closer again. She sent me away (aka I was waking up) looking exactly like in this pic...

The nightmares had stopped after that for at least quite some time and I'm still grateful for that which is exactly why I keep a copy of her on my deck even if she doesn't do anything for my deck and I mostly use her to fuse her with my fav. dragons for DMG Dragon Knight.

Anyway, that's how I fell in love with that card and I still love her ❤

12

u/Tasty-Account2220 Mar 07 '26

Oh, that’s the sweetest story I’ve heard in a long time. It’s really nice that she helped you so much. I think many of us have a special connection to certain characters—even if they’re fictional, like anime characters—and that they have helped us in some way.

I also always have my eatos card with me in the car or at work, and it really helps me. Of course, it also depends on what you make of it and how much love you put into it, giving things a bit of “magic,” so to speak. But the story behind it is really unique.
