Yu-Gi-Oh DM: ONE CHANGE AT A TIME
Beginnings are difficult. Truths are complicated. Reality is unpredictable, and dreams are fleeting moments of naiveté. Kurai Eijiro has a troubled beginning. A truth he must face. A new reality in another world and a dream. A cursed dream that forces him to reach the top of a vast and perverse game. A game of life and death. One where there are no black or white sides. In an endless struggle between faint grays and complete darkness. Within an ancestral and forgotten ritual called Duel Monster's. Using a new name, in another body, Bakura Ryou, formerly Kurai Eijiro, will find himself traveling paths filled with constant and convoluted adversity towards an uncertain goal. To return to his world. Together with his family... Or perish in the attempt... And if to do so, he must become a monster... So be it.
- This is my last attempt at making a decent Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters Fanfiction.
- Genres: Fanfiction. Card Game. Action. Adventure. Fantasy. Romance. Slice of life. Among other less notable genres and subgenres.
- The world or setting itself, will not have drastic changes. I will only substitute certain things, such as the name Domino City, for Tokyo City. Geography. From fiction to reality. The plot, on the other hand, will have notable variations. This is AU. A reasonable AU. The MC will create changes and reality will adapt to his actions. Truly meaningful actions not trifles. Reality does not change so easily. The butterfly effect is not omnipotent or scientifically proven. A ripple in a river does not change the course of the river or, properly speaking, its location. Everything is relative and adaptable in this story. Nothing is completely fixed. The magnitudes of events play a crucial role in the plot. The only thing that cannot be altered are the actions and convictions of the most resilient people, whether they are remarkably kind or terribly vile. The dominoes will fall when required. Small ones first and big ones later.
- I focus on the cards that correspond to the period where the events occur. 2002 TCG. Except Diabound Kernel, for obvious reasons. I will not use the Japanese names of those untranslated cards in the TCG. I will always translate them into English from Japanese. For example, Koumori Dragon will be renamed Devil Dragon. I will also change the effects and type of some cards to fit the current season. Example: In the first season, several cheating cards were considered spells. Mai's Shadow of Eyes, was a spell. Not a trap. Jonouchi's Copycat and Time Wizzard, were spells. Not monsters.
- My story will follow a variable chronology. Decisions will be made during the present and narrated in past tense. Mainly canon POVs, be it Yugi, Bakura, Honda, for example.
- There will be no other OCs or SIs in this work except for the MC himself. All other characters will be exclusively cannon. The mentioned OCs will not have a name. They will be mobs only.
- The image on my cover was drawn by Shery. It belongs exclusively to Shery.
- Please, this server strongly requests you to leave a rating or, instead, point out my plot, grammatical and spelling mistakes during the comments. Mainly in your first impression of the reading. That's the only way I will be able to improve the fanfiction, my writing and boost my desire to move forward with this story.
- By the way, if you want to read my fic in Spanish, go to Wattpad.

With nothing more to add, Lord of Demise, takes his leave.
