So, after @yugiohblogstuff made the post saying that France recently aired Shun VS Sora Part Deux (aka “CarpetBombing - The Episode”), I was Googling around to see if I could find it streaming anywhere. The network that airs it did have it online, I think, but not being in France, I couldn’t play it: http://replay.gulli.fr/replay/video/dessins-animes/yu_gi_oh_arc_v/VOD68336198205000
(^Could be a general page, dunno if it has everything aired so far; here’s 34′s link; called “Se montrer à la hauteur”)
I ran that title through Google and got this TV listing site where they list what episodes air when, and looking at 37′s page, titled “Yugo VS Yuto” (considering they used dub names like Shay/Shun for the other summaries, like this one for 38 (which uses Lulu for Ruri, too):
“ Yuya est toujours endormi et rien n'arrive à le réveiller. Aura vient pour aider, Yoko et Zuzu parviennent à la convaincre que sa victoire aiderait Yuya. Il finit par se réveiller et explique à Zuzu qu'il y a quatre dimensions et que certaines sont ennemies. Selon lui, ses doubles viennent de dimensions parallèles. Zuzu lui avoue qu'elle a un double également : Lulu. Yuto donne l'une de ses cartes à Yuya et lui demande de mettre à profit ses duels pour divertir les gens. Le second tour du tournoi va commencer et Yuya affrontera Iggy, un adversaire violent… “)
I’d take it to mean that Yugo’s going to keep his name, after all. My question is, how are they going to handle the gag with his name “linking” him to Academia? (And more importantly, why is Isao now Iggy? Uh…)
All that said, maybe someone in France can look into that link for 34 and see if it’s anything? It’d be good to know how that episode fared, haha; the site I use to check on the Italian dub’s still on 32, so I dunno if they’ve aired it yet, too.
