heyy quick question what got you into Prideshipping and is it canon ?
Hey! I immediately fell for Yami Yuugi, when I watched the first run of Yugioh on German TV, back at around 2003. A while later, I found some artists who made beautiful Prideshipping art. Back then it was really uncommon - most people shipped Puzzle or Puppy. Doujinshi artist Rapan fed us well tho. Fast forward to 2015 I fell back into ygo fandom, just in time to experince the DSOD hype. That movie made our wildest dreams come true: Kaiba was always crazy for Atrm, but that movie took it to the next level. They really fed us well, and it finally felt like the relationship between Kaiba and Atem was validated.
Is Prideshipping canon? Well, not in the shipping sense. Did they make a movie about how much these two idiots mean to each other? Hell yes.
Tldr: Kaiba and Atem are both really cool, thats why I like them, and why they like each other
