Expect a mix of YGO stuff (and a little ZeXal and SEVENS [which I'm slowly watching]), with some occasional randomness.Duel Links ID: 537-542-930 | Master Duel ID: 999-767-712

  • It’s neat that this 5D’s Duel Chronicle event included this Nazca arc on a map, given how the dub left the corresponding episodes undubbed; lets us see how it would’ve probably been dubbed, and while most of the event text here is pretty accurate iirc (save for Jack’s “[Bommer]’s a fortuneteller, is he?” 4K/KCMism line early on), a few observations here:

    • I’m glad yet a bit annoyed that Konami properly translated Jack’s Synchro chant for Scar-Red Nova Dragon here when it’s the dub line in the voice files.  (As I still am that Yusei got proper translations for the Red Daemon’s and Blackfeather Dragon chants yet Jack and Crow, the actual users, don’t) At least be consistent one way or the other guys, lol.
    • Crimson Devil -> Fiend was always an anticipated change, so no real surprise there, though it was also previously named “Red Nova” according to Yugipedia, so… another bit of inconsistency, lol.
    • Also glad yet a bit annoyed that Yusei gets to say “Clear Mind” in the event dialogue when he didn’t get to in the anime’s dub iirc, yet I don’t think it’s in his English voice lines, with the corresponding voice line being another “rev it up.” (Similarly, in the event dialogue covering Yusei’s duel with Placido and then later vs Jose/Aporia, they keep “Stardust Mirage” as Shooting Star’s attack name, but of course it’s “Falling Star Slam” in the voice files…)
    • Burning Soul -> Blazing Soul… sure? Guess it may as well have already been established when Red Nova’s attack name became “Blazing Soul Strike,” but I don’t really see the point of that, lol. [also ruins the synergy with Masaaki Endo’s kickass “Clear Mind” but I guess that’s not really a consideration lol]

    It’ll be interesting when we get the next 5D’s Chronicle event that includes the Ark Cradle/Divine Temple events, since they still included Aporia saying “ThE tEmPlE iS gOnE aNd ThE cItY aNd ItS pEoPlE aRe SaFe” lol.  I figure Duel Links was eventually going to have to give us stuff from what the dub didn’t get to; since we already have Judai/Yubel, it was at least a given we’d get GX S4 stuff too.  But at least only GX and 5D’s have this unfinished-dub problem, to KCM’s credit.
