Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (anime)/Fanfic Recs

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Proof that the remaining 10% is worth dying for here:

These are recommendations made by Tropers for Yu-Gi-Oh GX, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. No-name recommendations will be Zapped (wiki). Nobody would back up the rec. Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.

Do warn when a fanfic may head into non-canon territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, Shipping is Serious Business.


Authors, and Websites

Snibbity Dibbity

  • Recommended by Very Melon
  • This author has written a Trilogy of Next Gen Fic, the first two staring the Spin Offspring of Yugi Motou participating in the Gx Canon, and the third(and still in progress) proper Next Gen Fic staring an original adventure. The second fic contains NSFW material.

General Fics

Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

Yu-Gi-Oh GNext by Anime Master ZERO

  • Recommended by Very Melon
  • Synopsis: Set fifteen years after Jaden's graduation, this story follows the high school life of Mikey Angel, a young beginner who's just starting his life at Duel Academy.

Chariot's Progress by SilvorMoon

  • Recommended by Rubber Lotus

So Far, So Good by Heleentje (there is death in this fic, and it can be violent)

  • Recommended by Higuchimon
  • Synopsis: This is set post-canon and involves mainly Juudai, Johan, and Yubel, with appearances by other canon characters at various points as Juudai travels. The general plot involves a force known as Chaos and the search for the incarnation of Good Light, which could be much closer to Juudai than he thinks, in more ways than one.

An Ode to Kaiser by White Lady Dragon
