tf2’s translators come from the ‘mass find and replace’ school of editing, which has resulted in manjoume calling asuka ‘rhodes’ all the time. Great Job 

Must be the case in TF3 too lol; have you ever met a The Supreme King? I know that the The Supreme King is evil!

“Hey, Princeton!” “oh my god you peasant call me Princeton” “Sorry, Princeton” is the best exchange ever.

(actually, no, Kaiser telling me that my dueling tasted different was the best thing ever, though I know that one’s genuinely a case of “wtf how do I translate that that’s not even a word”)

wow that took me a second when i saw it lol, i forgot that’s probably Manjoume saying “call me The Manjoume!” wow that’s awkward haha (I thought it was a “call me that one more time and i’ll…” kinda thing XD)

For all the dub inclusions they’ve thrown into TF3 (which is funny because you get those dub-isms in flashbacks to pre-Season 4 stuff, and then when anything from Season 4 comes up, it’s basically as said in the Japanese version lol [kinda like the italian dub]), you’d think they’d have made that “The Chazz” for consistency. :/

Also, they could’ve just done what I did (and what he did anyway) and actually combine “taste” and “different” >_>

(via paradoxi-kay)

First thing: I finally got around to posting links for GX 170 and 171 over on the NAC haha; if you’re on there, go check ‘em out!

So, I’m about 8 minutes into 172, at where Judai and Mr. TJohan start their duel.  I’d expect it done mid-week, I’d say Thursday at the latest. :)

Sorry about the lack of updates, guys! I posted 166 and before I knew it, it’d been two+ weeks! D:

But don’t worry, ‘cause I’m done timing 167’s script! I have to leave for work soon (the perks of working at a store that’s open for Christmas!), but I should be done finalizing it for an upload by tonight, just in time for you to watch it with your family around your Christmas tree! Though given what 167’s about it might’ve worked better had I done it by Thanksgiving pluck

So yeah, keep an eye out, folks!

It’s a shame I’ve tagged all my Arc-V posts as just that, but now that I want to make a tagged page for it, none of it’ll come up because Tumblr sucks with hyphens

UPDATE: Done. Also added a YGO general page for textposts, Series 1 (S0/Toei!YGO) stuff and whatnot.  One of these days I’ll get back to updating my old posts so they show up on these pages lol.

*casually works on GX 167 while all this Arc-V stuff goes on*

Also, just for the record, did Kaz say ZeXal would be the last series again at all, like he did about 5D’s? If he didn’t, at least we can say he didn’t back out from that again for Arc-V lol.

idk yeah, Yuya’s ZeXal-ish design’s got me slightly iffy on it, but I’ll give it a few episodes and see if it’s engaging (I mean, going back to the “have stuff happen in the first 10 episodes” thing from GX and especially 5D’s would be good).  Maybe by then I’ll catch up on ZeXal and Vector’s shenanigans I’d love having a series to watch through from the get-go again like I did with 5D’s; those old times on Janime staying up late for the Fortune Cup/Dark Signer arcs were fun haha.

I also saw someone on that NAC thread suggest having Chiaki J Konaka come in as head writer, which would be really cool given how he did Digimon Tamers (haven’t seen Lain but heard it’s pretty f’d up; also seems Yoshida’s done decent stuff with ZeXal, but it’d be interesting to have someone else take it up).

idk I just hope this series turns out awesome enough to have Masaaki Endoh record some songs for it again

Speaking of the DM manga, anyone know where I can find most of Volume 9/Duelist Vol.2 with Viz’s translations? I’m up to chapter 77, and this and a few other chapters (like one of the puppet!Kaiba ones) are fanlations mixed in with the Viz chapters; I like consistency, and the fanlations aren’t HK-subs horrible (then again, they have “niisama” in there…), but I’d rather the VIZ ones (or some better fanlations, if anything).

If not, I’ll deal with it, but figured I’d ask lol.  *jumps back to finishing GX 166*

So I ended up on DM ep.200’s page on the Wikia while I was looking for Kaiba going full V-Chin when

“Spiritual Awakening”, known as “Dark Bakura on the Move” in the Japanese version, is the two-hundredth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime. It first aired in Japan on April 14, 2004 and in the United States on October 22, 2005. As an homage to the original Japanese series and to celebrate the second series anime’s two-hundredth episode, the opening theme of the English Dub was temporarily changed to a shortened version of OVERLAP (already used in the original Japanese from episode 190 onwards). OVERLAP was kept for approximately 10 episodes before it was eventually changed back the usual Yu-Gi-Oh! theme music.

what did this actually happen or did I somehow repress this

buh?? on what network? i’m pretty sure i watched the ae dubs as they aired on wb and i don’t remember this at all

sapphire-ring said: Definitely not on my network, because I watched the dub as they premiered.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure I did too (hell, I recorded the premieres on a videotape that I’m sure I still have lying around somewhere and don’t remember that happening), and I know the WB was the only channel premiering DM episodes… It’d be cool, but knowing 4Kids (especially with how they were back then) I doubt they would’ve had OVERLAP playing.  I wonder where their source is for that lol.

(via a-giant-spider-archive)

So I just gave my blog some link overhaul: added a bunch of “tagged” links so it should be easier for people (and me) to find things like my comparisons, the video posts I’ve made with the GX eps, and the rambling posts I make as I work on episodes and stuff, along with all my posts/reblogs of each YGO series.  

I just have to go back and retag a bunch of stuff, but yeah, check ‘em out sometime!

Also, hope you guys are likin’ my new-ish Halloween icon :3

Just spent at least 30 minutes trying to find that post I reblogged a few weeks back with the Duelist part of the manga, only to find that the site’s no longer active.

Wow, that was quick.

Shame I have to keep making these update posts… D:

So yeah, you’re seeing this because I’m running a bit late again this week lol; just had some stuff and work going on this week.  I just got up to the turn in the duel where Judai uses Convert Contact (~14 mins in); ETA would probably be Saturday or Sunday again at this point, barring a sudden hangout or something.  Stay tuned!
