- #i still don't get the choice of changing 'soul frozen due to Saiou's control thus her individuality is suppressed'
- #to 'more trash-talking personality go brr'
- #especially for Extremely Funny one-liners like this
- #and 'get it dork?' as she starts her turn
- #[also lol they thought Sparkman had an effect letting Judai draw a card and not Card Gunner]
- #also why is she talking about having stuffed animals scarier than Fluff Tokens in this state

I don’t know if anyone noticed, but when Marik Is getting burnt by Ra his clothes are also vanishing.
Went to go check the dub, and while 4Kids didn’t cut this out, they did heavily obscure him with their shadow flames so his clothes being burned is hidden, lol. (Excuse Hulu’s fade on the paused dub video there)
Surprisingly, this ep’s Yu-Jyo page didn’t touch on this (though it does mention the shot of Dark Bakura being directly burned was cut).

One of the things I will never forgive 4kids for in the 5Ds dub is the scene where Yusei is getting his criminal mark.
(There were a lot of terrible changes made, most of them unnecessary, and I will always be salty about the 31 cut episodes, but this one truly takes the cake for me…)Like, part of the point of that scene is that receiving and having that mark is completely dehumanizing. He was completely stripped of his rights and his privacy over something that shouldn’t have been a law in the first place.
I get it, target audience in the US is 10-year olds. So cut out the agonized screaming – fine.
But then leave it.
Don’t have Yusei give some smart-aleck, completely out of character comment about it.
Kids can still handle serious moments, and Yusei saying, “Is it supposed to tickle?” just completely and absolutely removes the severity of the situation he’s in. Let him stay silent. Let the scene still be serious.
