Yu-Gi-Oh! - Shaddoll Archetype

[@juancarlincar]

It would be cool if Konami made a Yugioh anime revolving around the lore instead of like dueling

[@KayneWalshNZ]

holy shit you have blown my mind

[@GatorRay]

UchihaMadara I would love to see like a mini series with each episode focusing on the story of a different monster or monsters. With the finale talking about the tale of the Shadolls.

[@KingofBeasts444]

Konami doesn't make the anime. But I like the idea. Please remember Yugioh is still owned by Jump Comics.

[@pherasabraxas]

I could see that. There's such interesting stories here.

[@GatorRay]

+emotrainer4444 Yeah I know. Heck I would be interested in seeing them simply making a spin-off manga that explores the lore of the monsters. Call it Yu-Gi-Oh Gaiden (Since Gaiden is Japanese for sidestory)

[@kingcrowbro2486]

Okay, you officially need to do a lore video. I had no idea that all these archetypes had connections like these.

[@danielma7281]

that would be awesome

[@shadyfragger5749]

Okay. So far 2 duel monster stories are being told in lore. The tale of El Shadoll (the Shadow Doll.) and the tale of the Dracofiends. I think tabs will need to be kept, in case another story comes along. This is gonna be fun. : )

[@jsanto210]

I feel like these were all monsters that feel in battle and seek to regain life to fufill what they regretted while they were alive, so in the midst of death, the core offers them a second chance, but once they accept it, they become puppets, both literally and metaphorically this explains why their bodies are puppets

Holy shit whatever universe the Shaddoll's are in is a sad one it seems. I'm not sure if the people who became Shaddolls retained their idenities or just basically died because I just played the Qliphort's story in Master Duels and did not realize they suffered such a fate, even though they were machines, they were giving hope to the Naturias and it seems those failed too. Has anything stopped the Shaddolls or are they just gonna merge with everything and take it all over? If so maybe Demise can just destroy it all and be done with it.

I thought the shaddoll core was also made of the remnants of the evils warm virus. that xyz that was formerly a gem-knight carried the evils warm virus in it to save everyone else and eventually died and re-released it or something. that's what I remember hearing from duel terminal lore anyway

In spanish the preposition "the" has gender depending on the sex of the object you are talking about, this forms are "el" for male and "la" for female, so the shadoll archetype has a lot of cards refered as males (at least If you read the cards' names in both languages)

You missed some details about El Shaddoll Construct. It is possible she was created using the body of Gem knight Lady Lapis. They look very similar to each other. Also, I do not think she is as big as you think. Rather than all those silhouettes being smaller, I think they are just far away behind her. Its the same with El Shaddoll Shekhinaga. She is just closer in perspective in comparison to the huge machine behind her.

[@AliceRose019]

I wanted to bring up a theory, I'm not sure if its right or wrong but its something I noticed and found interesting. So all of the Shaddolls are doll versions of other monsters, but you didn't mention the mister that Construct use to be. I don't know the lore on the archetype, but Construct is very similar to Beatrice, lady of eternal from the Burning Abyss archetype. They share extremely similar artwork when you look carefully. Constructs strings are much like Beatrice's rays of light, the head piece on Construct is a lot like Beatrice's vail and the dress is the same as well. Their poses are also identical, the only difference is Construct's arms are a bit more down. Their ATK and DEF are reversed like all the other El Shaddolls, and the effect is almost identical. Beatrice can send 1 thing from the deck to graveyard and Construct can send 1 Shaddoll. Tell me what you think! I really think Construct is Beatrice but if she is, I'd love to know more lore on the Burning Abyss, atleast how it works in the yugioh story line.

[@bunnyboyking5215]

Just10L I think it's interesting. The idea of Construx being a corrupted version of Beatrice makes sense. Also with that in mind. Do you think it would be interesting to see a Shaddoll version of Inpachi?

[@Rhinoplaysmc]

Shadoll deku would be a good name

[@KinjiroTheThunder]

Just10L Construct's pose is also similar to Gem Knight Lady Lapis Lazuli, and considering there is a connection between some Shaddolls and the Gem Knights, it could be possible

[@MiguelitoJimz]

Lapis Lazuli was tainted by the Shaddoll Core and got corrupted, he betrayed the Gem Knights and reanimated the Gusto tribe. Also possesed Yang Zing and Ritual Beast monsters along with Constellar's armors, and stole technology from the infernoids, only to defeat the Qlis.

That's actually because she IS Lapis Lazuli. In the Duel Terminal story, Lapis Lazuli is looking for other Gem-Knights that survived the Evilswarm virus. She found Caingorgon instead, who was infected with the last of the evilswarm virus, the Shaddoll Core. The Shaddoll Core infected Lapis Lazuli, who became Construct, the first El Shaddoll.

El Shaddoll Construct being so feminine that the appearance is resemble to a nun, and REALLY REALLY in love with. Overall, this archetype can really counter other metas if one can really know what they doing.
