*sees Vegas screwed up on more than one clip*

I AM NOT AMUSED, VEGAS
YES MY DOWNLOADED TAG FORCE SPECIAL WORKS LIKE A CHARM
But considering I still have TF3 to get through, maybe playing this now wouldn’t be such a good idea… XD;
Phew, seems I was right about the maintenance thing! My videos on Cloudy seem to be working now. If anyone still has any issues, let me know!
Apparently Cloudy goofed on a few of the uncut DM episode uploads too… Did anyone notice them not working too, or is it just me? Surprised no one’s said anything :S
Random thought but after seeing that uncut!DM petition, and another one aimed at Konami from TCG players, I wonder if my GX/5D’s unreleased BGM petition would work better on Change.org instead of the other site I’m using… Since they let you put in the person or company’s name and address it to them, and all. But then, they don’t recognize Marvelous at all, even in Japanese, so…

heleentje and I mentioned doing a Great YGO Rewatch a bit ago in Nov/Dec before I went on hiatus, and now it turns out that starting February 7, 2015, the original DM series is being aired, completely HD remastered. How complete? We’ll have to wait and see, maybe they’ll actually redraw the Memory Arc like we’ve all wanted for years. Either way, I thought this would be the best time to start the GYGORW (acronym pending review).
I’m not sure how frequently the DM series is airing, but I imagine it will be more than once a week (probably every morning, so 7 eps a week given it starts on a Saturday) to complete the airing before the new movie in 2016. I propose we start with DM as the new remaster airs and then continue our way through the franchise: GX —> 5Ds —> BBT —> Zexal —> Arc V.
Clearly this is not going to be a fast endeavor, what with nearly 15 years of material to make our way through, but a challenge like this is far more fun with friends. Personally, I can’t commit to live-watching all the episodes together, and given the various timezones that’d probably be impossible anyway. What I am envisioning, though, and please provide ideas, is some sort of forum, chat room, or group tumblr account where we can meet up at a specific time and review/discuss a set number of episodes.
Sort of like a book club: go watch these 5 or so episodes at some point during the week, we convene over the weekend to talk. This way everyone can use their own time the way they need, skip weeks with episodes that don’t appeal to them/have time for, and we can capture the group’s analysis/discussion for later review.
TL;DR: rhodanum, heleentje, kaiowut99, stealtharchaeologist, anyone interested?
Count me in! Would be cool to talk some more YGO :D I’ll just have to figure out how to work it into my week with my GX stuff and work going on lol.
HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE

where is that ‘ALL MEN HAVE THESE EXPECTATIONS’ with v-chin!kaiba post i just saw part of in the #yugioh tag it’s glorious
Yᴜ-Gɪ-Oʜ! Dᴜᴇʟ Mᴏɴsᴛᴇʀs 5D’s - Sᴜʙs
Do you ever wanted to watch Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s anime the way it was intended to be? Uncensored? Without changes from the 4kids versions? There is your chance.
- Watch it online (Yu-Gi-Oh! official site)
- Watch it online ( kissanime )
Dᴏᴡɴʟᴏᴀᴅ ʟɪɴᴋs:
Most torrents are mismatched resolution as there isn’t a NAC subs batch yet. There are some dubbed torrents, but not only they are the censored version but 4kids skipped Crash Town and didn’t translated the second season altogether.

- µTorrent for android
- Video Codec (if you are having trouble watching, download this)

Don’t think I ever reblogged this lol. Just to note, 4Kids did dub Crashtown; it was a select bunch of episodes (111-122, 130, and technically 95% of 137) and the Ark Cradle arc (heh) that were skipped.
Also, I’m personally more fond of the TnKP fansubs (which you’ll see on kissanime) than the official subs; while they are good enough (minus my minor irks with them like lines sounding weird given who’s saying them [BRO]) and you should definitely support them by watching them, initially I’d start with TnKP, and then give the official ones a watch starting with maybe 79 (or 65 if you want to start fresh for Season 2), since that’s where Horoko of TnKP stopped subbing 5D’s (though atm the official subs go up to 135). There are other subs between 79 and the 120s (when GX_ST comes in), but uh… they’re not always the best. lol
damn
I hope this makes it apparent why I’m so pissed at the anime for cutting this out
It’s so real
It escalates so quickly after Yuugi was the first to freak out, and suddenly after being blank for so long Jounouchi’s letting it all out
This is the most honest he’s probably been with himself in years
and Honda… his little ‘You’re not a bully anymore’ with that little wink
then that smile he has right after
it’s so bitter, and yet it’s got this pride to it
they’re not those guys anymore, sure for a while there they were pretty shitty (in their view point) but now
they’ve got something that made want to be better people… and dear god if Jounouchi isn’t beautiful in that last panel then I don’t know what else is
For some reason, I decided to look into the manga/anime differences in DM while I was at work, and it’s bad enough that episode 1 was such a clusterfuck of chapters all across the first four volumes (or at least up to the Death-T arc; forget where that comes in), but their omitting a lot of the core characterizations really blows for the anime. Hell, the friendship circle comes across as “YOU HAVE AN OLD MAN TO SAVE GET TO IT” while in the manga, not only did they have the time to actually do it, but you’ve seen how strong their bond is by that point that it doesn’t come across as forced.
It’d be nice if one day, DM gets the FMA:Brotherhood treatment and it’s remade to be more faithful to the manga, because having a lot (or maybe 20%) of the things that defined the early parts of it be sprinkled around Duelist Kingdom isn’t a good way to make up the seven-volume dismissal. But of course, it probably won’t happen because card sales.

*runs to do more timing for GX 2*
i left the n out on purpose to be funny
Yuto’s name in Japanese katakana is ユート
Phonetically, yuuto
Doesn’t leave much room for it to be transcribed as “Ute”
Best-case, they were going for “Uto” but even then it’s a stretch
And with the lookalike-Yuya and the “Yu” naming scheme there for context, would it really make sense for it to be Ute? :P
Romanized things in the anime have always had a slight margin of error. Remember “MORTETN”/“MOMENTUM?” Also the time or two they misromanized Rua and Ruka’s names? It could be true, it might not, but until there’s some official word on it, going with the context leading to “Yuto” is our best bet.
The same should go for Reira too, as much of an L/R issue as it is: he’s Reiji’s brother, so Reira makes a little more sense than Layra. Though it does sound a bit weird to say out loud lol.
*runs to listen to Burn! five more times*
here you go!

*chokes on food* THAT SECOND ONE OMFG
THAT ONE WINS, EVERYONE GO HOME
[EDIT: ok since tumblr is being stupid and won’t show who submitted it, mind pointing yourself out? :P]
Would some awesome cheery soul with time to kill be able to get a Santa hat onto this dork for me

pls it’d be much appreciated
