Gremlin Vomit has never looked so gorgeous

Rainy day - aka more background practice

Yugioh went "gardeners are actually inherently a little Fucked Up In The Head and Crave Violence." and they were so real for that.

feeling very yuguoh right nowe

I think one of my favorite things about Yugioh is how unafraid it is to go all in on a card game being the driving force of this series.

The world is ending and you know what we're going to use to save it? Card games.

What is the villain's method of taking over the world? Card games but evil.

How do characters choose to resolve literally any conflict? Through a card game.

We need a way to resurrect people. Good thing there's a card that can do that.

Headcannons I have about Melami Goldmine (Edited because I have more info!)

Spoilers will be below the cut:

Yo! Just wanted to share an idea I had in my mind before I somehow forget about it.

I’m not sure if people even remember, but a bit I used to do when posting Rain Code memes was pretending that Melami and the other Chapter 0 Master Detectives were still alive. I know they’re as dead as a doornail (as hard as it was for me to accept at first); I just wanted to mess with y’all.

So having that out of the way, I want to share an idea I have for Melami, or more specifically, her Forte, as well as its requirements and benefits.

Upon introduction, we see Melami tell Yuma that clothes that reek or are unfashionable are out of the question when using her Forte. While I think that’s just a preference she set for herself, I also believe this gives way to a deeper idea. I believe that Melami actually prefers to use her Forte as least as possible, and will only use it if necessary or if she happens to like the victim’s clothes. This would explain why her official description makes note of her intelligence, since she would prefer to make logical deductions regarding a case before resorting to summoning the victim.

As for the reason why I believe she prefers to use her Forte only as a last resort, I think it’s because she deeply cares for her body. We see how much care she puts into it by frequently styling her hair, using make-up, preparing flashy clothes for her to wear even in casual settings, etc.. And while I am aware this is probably just because of her hobby as a fashionista, I find it very hard to believe that someone who puts that much care into her body and its physical appearance would be okay with giving it away to a foreign entity so quickly.

This also leads me to a second idea. The mastery of a Forte that can summon the dead while using one’s own body requires mastery of two separate abilities. The first is the ability to manipulate the dead, meaning that Melami can see spirits much in the same way Vivia can when he’s not using his Forte. This would also mean she can interact with Mystery Labyrinths as an outsider without risking her memories being erased (I believe people have already talked and made additional ideas around this concept).

The second ability (which I believe is far less talked about) is the manipulation of one’s own body as a vessel, meaning that Melami can also set restrictions within herself to prevent the spirit she summons from taking certain actions using her body (for example self-harm, murder, suicide attempts, etc..). Melami deeply cares for her body and its physical wellbeing, so restricting the spirit she summons to only answering questions seems like a reasonable headcannon to have.

Edit: Also! Melami being able to control her body means she can forcefully eject any spirit that tries to possess her body without permission. At least I think something like that would make sense.

Are all of these ideas already out there? Probably, but I still want to share what I’m thinking, bounce ideas off the wall and see if anyone agrees or not. Of course we might never know if any of this is true, given how we only got to know Melami for a few minutes. Either way, I hope that Rain Code’s success gives way for more content regarding the Chapter 0 Master Detectives in the future, since I’d love to hear about Melami again.

Anyway, these were all ideas I wanted to get off my mind, before I somehow forgot about them. If you made it this far, then thank you for listening to my ramblings. Have these Melami images as a reward, and I hope you have a great day 😄👍

Edit: I forgot to share this after uploading, but she would also have one of these in her bag in case of emergencies. This just screams Melami to me 😆

She’s just a little tired…

Decided to draw Melami Goldmine from Master Detective Archives: Rain Code

anything on melami?

Here's everything else of her that I haven't posted yet

General images

Close up from the games cover

Close up of special edition's box art

And her character sheet

Oh and I’m just supposed to live my life normally after seeing this? After knowing the modern equivalent of a goddess’ early depictions? After knowing that she was always beautiful, starting from the drawing on the mural to the ink writing on a page? Oh okay I’ll see how I’ll manage.

Okay seriously though thank you; I’m always glad to see more of Melami 😄👍

Oo when you're free can you post Melami's beta designs? Very curious to see what she looked like before :0

Her beta designs

And her design development

apparently i draw raincode now?? participated in a collab recently so thought i’d share

Their shared future awaits.

Yuya's Eyes

ROCKSTAR PROTAGS!

Started redrawing this 2 months ago when this was revealed, got 70% within a week and stopped bc life :( Finally decided to finish them up and look at my kids, take them please

Here you goes

My main weakness is images with all the protags in it

⟡ yuzu hiragi - yugioh arc-v

Barian life

JJK’s 120% panel but redrawn with my comfort characters (including Yuzu Hiragi from YuGiOh! Arc-V, Melami Goldmine from Master Detective Archives: Rain Code, and Kirumi Tojo from Danganronpa V3).

I’m really glad on how this one turned out! I kinda decided to do this sketch just because I felt like it, and now that I finished I’m wondering what else I should draw. Overall this was a pretty neat panel to redraw 😄👍

W.I.P.S and original panel below the cut:

I’m always impressed just how different Zarc really is from all the other antagonists, especially for being an amazing call back villain

Zorc was driven by humanity’s natural evil, and wanted to destroy humanity because humanity is inherently self destructive. Zorc merely craved destruction and wanted to achieve these methods by allowing the Millennium Items to be created and spread their magic.

Darkness/Nightshroud was driven by the desire to end emotions, and nullify all drive, personality, and will so that no one will ever suffer, and have everyone enter his world of darkness. Darkness/Nightshroud wanted to eliminate all Spirit Seers so that they could drag people into their world at their leisure.

Z-One was driven by justice, wanting to make what was a relatively small sacrifice in order to save the future from being completely destroyed. His intentions were ultimately non villainous, but his methods could be considered villainous. Z-One wanted to help create a better future, and was willing to be a villain in order to achieve that end.

Don Thousand was driven by revenge, waging a war because he was abandoned by his original home world along with the power he believed was ultimately better, and eventually using it to corrupt others. Don Thousand was trying to take revenge because he felt that he was ultimately wronged.

Now where does Zarc fit into this?

Zarc was driven by fear.

He was a slave to an uncaring audience until he went insane from loneliness and pressure, making him destroy the dimensions and reincarnating. His full reincarnation has cards of his own design, made to be completely unbeatable because he never wants to lose to anyone.

Zarc never wanted to be used again, to be afraid again. Even with all the power he held, he was always afraid. And he wanted to make sure he never felt that way again.

Melami Goldmine - Master Detective Archives: Rain Code.

random utdp/summer camp observations #5: kirumi is alive, long live kirumi

a small thing, but it looks like in the Nice AU, Kirumi is likely well on her way to settling into her v3 Backstory:

isn't Byakuya just the Nosiest Boy?

...and even if that job doesn't work out, well, Kirumi may end up ruling Novoselic instead:

tons more tiny suggestions towards her backstory that i didn't Get until recently, too:

fascinating, right? i'm still reeling from learning Kirumi's wild-ass Backstory, honestly. she may be the most Saturday Morning Cartoon of all DR characters. straight up Kim Possible NPC. i love her

…So. Erm… *walks up to the stage and taps mic* Melami Goldmine, amirite? *cheers and applause*

Yo! I figured to share some more Rain Code posts I’ve made in my spare time! Now that I look at it better I did feature Halara a lot here, but I’m sure you guys don’t mind. And yes, I gave Melami one more stupid joke for her to do, as a treat.

I don’t really have much to say for this one! Hope you guys are doing well, whether you’re still into Rain Code or not! I just wanted to pop back in for a moment to reassure you all that yes, I am still normal about Melami Goldmine. Until next time!

so that kirumi umbrella huh?

Game of the year

MELAMI IS SUCH A WEIRDO.

But I kinda like her.

sick tricks

come on man

Just wanted to say that this is so adorable, and I love how you drew them both! You did an amazing job with the drawing!!! 😄😆😆

Mimi

I decided to do the “draw your comfort characters as the Steven Universe meme” art trend originally from Twitter, featuring Melami Goldmine from Master Detective Archives: Rain Code and Kirumi Tojo from Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony.

I think I’m the only one who’s done this specific combination of comfort characters. Melami is obviously my current fave, as many have seen on my Rain Code posts, but I also really like Kirumi from V3. She’s among my favorite Danganronpa characters across the entire franchise.

The dialogue was changed because I felt like this would fit Melami’s character slightly more; She’s not into violence, so I can see her possibly leaving the dirty work to someone else. Though to be fair, I don’t really see her getting others to kill for her in the first place? Idk tho 😅😂

Also, this is my first digital drawing shared on Tumblr, so there’s that! Yippee! 😄👍
