i love slime mould

Atsushi Tero of Hokkaido University grew the slime mold Physarum polycephalum in a flat wet dish. He placed the mold in a central position representing Tokyo, and he placed oat flakes in the dish corresponding to the locations of other major cities in the Greater Tokyo Area. As Physarum avoids bright light, light was used to simulate mountains, water and other obstacles in the dish. The mold first densely filled the space with plasmodia, then thinned the network to focus on efficiently connected branches. The network strikingly resembled Tokyo's rail system.[11][12]

it will be on top of a glass ceiling that drops you onto a magic saw if you lose.

and you know the location mega.

That experiment was super interesting, yeah.

Such similar efficiency.

GOD

you know i was really disappointed there was no such thing as a shadow realm

sure now the duels are a lot more morbid knowing the loser would've had their legs chopped off and dropped down a building but

there's something stupid about the shadow realm that also kinda makes sense for yugioh

i'm sure the designers of the rail system would be flattered to be compared to slime mould

[up][up] I know what you mean

tbh I feel like in some respects Yu-Gi-Oh is better for having the terrible 4kids dub

Yu-Gi-Oh isn't really something you can take seriously anyway

and it just had that strange charm to it

I don't know if the actual original is better as I've never watched it

but I am glad for the dub's existence

when i was younger i had these really old copies of shonen jump

before duelist kingdom

it was really freaky to me that yugi was willing to play a game where you stab a knife into your hand to grab more money and hope you don't stab yourself

and i hadn't realized that was actually really par for the course for the rest of yugioh because the anime insisted on saying shadow realm at every turn

maybe one day

i'll make a yugioh character that wholeheartedly embraces the concept of the shadow realm

or integrate the shadow realm into my original the fantasy setting who knows

Slime Mould also did Britian and Spain.

Also yes, the Shadow Realm was a stupid concept but fit with Yu-Ghi-Oh because YGO is a stupid concept.

It wouldn't seem as cool if people were actually dying and not getting sent to some evil torture dimension.

or integrate the shadow realm into my original the fantasy setting who knows

amazing

I recommend this wholeheartedly

@Jam: Exactly, yeah.

Even the fact that in the original there's DEATH TRAPS is goofy because of the inherent ridiculousness of the topic.

also without the 4kids dub we wouldn't have an entire genre of internet comedy
