Welcome, anime fans of all ages. As a kid, there was nothing I loved more than going home after a boring day at school to watch some mid-2000s cartoons. One of my favorites was the one that featured kids with wacky hairstyles battling each other for the fate of the world with playing cards. I tried to tune in every day, and it was always a high point for me whether it was a new episode or a classic rerun. 

I remember begging my parents to buy me Yu-Gi-Oh cards at the checkout during every grocery store run, obsessively trying to get all five Exodia parts. I was deeply jealous of the lucky kids that came back to school after Christmas break flaunting their very own Duel Disk. At the time, this was the coolest thing ever. If you long to be possessed by a 16-year-old Egyptian god version of yourself that beats the bad guys by challenging them to intense card du-du-du-duels, scroll down for memes curated just for you.
