Game of Thrones' highly anticipated Battle of Winterfell has finally hit and everyone is sobbing now that they have it. Some fans were wondering why the first two episodes were slow-paced and they now regret their complaints. Unless they wanted all those characters to die of course, so they are entitled to their thoughts. While most fans are pretty sad about the show's events, others can't help but make Yu-Gi-Oh jokes.
Yes, THAT Yu-Gi-Oh. The one about sexy teenagers saving the world with card games.
After the Night King rose with the now-possessed Viserion by his side, fans couldn't help but notice how its blue scales make it look similar to popular Yu-Gi-Oh monster Blue-Eyes White Dragon. This is one of the most powerful monsters in the game and is known for playing a huge part in the anime, thanks to Seto Kaiba constantly using it to beat everyone (except Yugi).
Here are some Twitter fans showing their Yu-Gi-Oh fandom after watching the GoT episode:
It really is hard to not make that comparison and might even influence HBO or George R.R. Martin to make a Game of Thrones card game. We would be kidding but the show and books have enough lore and characters to make a cool game out of.
Then again, people already have Dungeons and Dragons, Magic the Gathering, and Yu-Gi-Oh to entertain them.
Game of Thrones airs weekly on HBO and is currently on its last season. Fans can stream the show on HBO GO.
