Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters GX Episode 20 Subbed (Finalized)
(The video embedded above is mostly unrelated, just added so I could still keep this post up in its current Video-post format.)
A transfer student named Rei joins Judai’s room, but things become baffling through his refusal to join them to bathe and his attachment to the Kaiser. When Rei goes out looking for the Kaiser’s room, Judai follows him and finds out Rei’s secret. Only Judai gets caught by the Blue students, but he doesn’t tell them about Rei. With the secret on the line, a duel begins between Judai and Rei. Rei’s deck, featuring the “Maiden in Love,” is one with a love flair to it.
Phew, finally have this done! Unfortunately, I’m getting some stupid “Invalid Session ID” error on Cloudy that even this cookie-deleter extension’s not solving, so I’m using tune.pk for now. This was a fun episode, also setting up the next few episodes as the mini Interschool Duel arc comes up, and Rei was a nice character to work with here, as were the Sparkman/Featherman/Burstlady/Maiden interactions because what even was that haha. (Worth noting that I’m pretty sure everything from Rei moving into Judai’s room to the hella random bathing scene makes up the biggest cut 4Kids had done to the spinoffs until maybe the stupid cut at the end of Crashtown in 5D’s–except, unlike there, this episode didn’t have a recap for them to fluff the episode with. May have to do a comparison to see how fluffed the dialogue was, lol.)
There were also some fixes to this episode, as well as a translation edit for the hardsub here! Luckily, not too many fixes compared to the adventure that was 19, but they’re there below the cut for you, if you’re curious. Enjoy, guys! I’ll update this post and my stream masterpost when Cloudy lets me upload this there.
