    Yu-Gi-Oh! OC/Self Insert Stories

    So hey guys, as the title mentions I'm looking for good OC or Self Insert Yugioh stories, of any generation from the original all the way through to Vrainz. Specifically Male protagonists, no slash. Or heck, even any good crossovers that come to mind I'd be happy to hear about./ Sadly, on the OC/Self Insert front, there's very few worth mentioning that I've found.

    Self-Inserts

    So a friend of mine decided to write some SI Naruto fanfic and it got me thinking. Personally, I've always seen SI fanfics as one of the warning signs of bad fanfiction. Much like harems, slash and Mary-sues. But it got me thinking if it could be written decently. So, what are the common problems/reasons why SI fanfics fail? Do you think they can be done right? How?

NARUTO Dreaming of Sunshine is most popular SI in the archive, right now. It's well written and last update fairly recently. It also has a tvtropes page, which includes...
