Movie poster for the nonexistent Yu-Gi-Oh!: Ninja Chronicles.

I miss Yu-Gi-Oh!. |D

Another of the many random ideas that dribbles out of my head: the yami as ninja. ...Because I can.

I tried to use outfit designs that fit each yami's... personality. Heh. Also, I attempted to use colors that both suited them (and their ninja fuku) and had been worn by them at some point in the series. Bakura's was hard. I didn't want to just use black or deep blue, and pale blue doesn't exactly ninja very well (unless you're in the arctic...), so it took some creative thinking.

And no, this is not a crossover with a certain popular ninja anime series of whose fandom I happen to be a member, nor is it a glimpse of an ongoing project. I just decided to have a little fun.
(Though this WAS fun to draw, and I may well draw them in these outfits again. Bahaha, it'll be fun coming up with a full outfit for the pineapple-headed psychopath.)

Enjoy! <3
