Hope you all had delicious results this Thanksgiving! :)

I can’t remember the last time I used this icon for anything.  It was my favorite Rua expression in 5D’s, rivaled only by

I know I used it for a while back on Janime, at least lol.  But it’s still too early for any xmas ones so I thought “why not”

Me after seeing the new Tumblr layout

replace reading with seeing

So I was rewatching GX 180 earlier on my HD SmartTV streaming from my PC, and it couldn’t buffer so it stopped

JUST AS THE PUZZLE WAS GLOWING AND ATEM WAS COMING

and this isn’t the first time my TV’s come up with these cliffhangers

Just realized… If it wasn’t for the instability of things irl I’ve been trying to stabilize, I could’ve started working on finalized!Season 1 on the 6th, RIGHT IN TIME FOR THE ANNIVERSARY.  And then I’d get to post episodes on their original airdate…

Not sure who brought back my “Surprise Fight Sequence!” GX gifset, but thanks for bringing back my “Surprise Fight Sequence!” GX gifset. :D

Is anyone familiar with petition sites and whatnot? I really do want to try and get this “release GX’s unreleased music” petition going, and it’d be good to try it on a more well-known site (unless they don’t matter as long as the petition gets forwarded to the company eventually, probably).  I’ll have to take a crack at trying to word it well too haha.

Okay, does anyone want to help me get a petition going to get Marvelous Entertainment over in Japan to release another Sound Duel for GX? Because as much as I like working on these rips, these tracks that are impossible to keep with the original instruments would sound disappointing (I’m up to my favorite part of “A Duel Frenzy/An All-Out Duel”–the chill downtempo part of it–and it’s hard as hell to get much of it clean from its limited 15 uses in the show, and it sounds awkward without that one instrument coming in toward the middle in the vocal-removed version [hear it in action here]).

And hey, it worked for ZeXal fans: they’ve got a Sound Duel 5 coming in November thanks to a lot of fan outcry…

放送終了後も未収録音源のCD化を望むお声を多数頂きましたことを受け、今回の発売が決定致しました。

*quick translation by me*

“Many of you voiced your wishes for CDs of the soundtracks that went unreleased even after [ZeXal]’s broadcast concluded, and that led us to this next release.”

…so if anything, it can only help! GX’s 10th Anniversary is also coming up soon, so there’s our special occasion!

Or worst-case scenario, someone has some audio-editing knowhow to tell me how to remove the vocals but keep those instruments (probably something involving frequencies if I had to guess), or someone can maybe help recreate the instruments or something idk

IIRC the first ARC-V DVD set comes out today in Japan…

Which means textless!BelieveXBelieve and One Step!

Question is, who’s gettin’ it? :P

Kyuando Eita

KYU ANDO EITA

Q&A[-ter]

So I only got to about where the duel started in ARC-V 19 back at work (about to fully watch it now), but the part where the bus stopping makes Nico jump ahead, and then you see the sign saying to hold tight or something… XD

Also, I find it funny that Eida asks Yuya what “yoroshiku” is in French, when there’s so many ways that can get translated haha.

Fun fact about that “regular hoot” line: Johan was originally amused about Judai hanging around with Manjoume and co (since Manjoume was all “I’M THE GENEX CHAMPION!!!!!!1”)

So I’m gettin’ awfully close to that 300-follower threshold… Should probably think of something cool to work on to celebrate it…

part of me’s considering dealing with a certain tomatohead

I wonder if anyone’s checked the links on the bolded/italic example text in my subbed!GX masterpost lol
