"Any card—so long as it exists—has a power that is needed."

Unironically love this fansub going out of its way to point out when the characters are Playing The Card Game Wrong. You’re so right, fansub group from 2006 whose members I will never know. A tribute summon is a normal summon.

Heya, fansub group guy from 2007 today who you now know about! 🙂

Happened to come across this, couldn’t fully tell if the tail end of the post was a little sarcasm–running on low sleep today–but I did want to just note that, while I typically leave side-notes like these for things like quick onscreen translations/etc, I always felt this was worth clarifying due to the error in the Japanese line, where he does say “Special-Summon” (“tokushuu shoukan”) for what’s actually a Normal Summon via Tribute, since it’s not a card’s effect letting him summon Neos. Just so folks watching aren’t too confused, lol.

(Though errors like that are typically dub-side, they can occasionally [though rare] happen on the Japanese side, as well.)

That said, while I have you here, I’d also note that these subs are out of date, since I first started subbing GX with Season 3 going off episode summaries and game knowledge back in late 2007 (with 105 being my first subbed episode, lol); I’d recommend using my Stream Masterpost here! I use it to share my most updated subs, as I eventually redid Season 3 [and went into Season 4 for the first time] once I properly went through Seasons 1 and 2 as I picked up more Japanese, and I’m currently working on revising/finalizing everything [including using DVD-quality video]–not many streaming sites have these up, and I do like how they’ve come out. 🙂
