(Previously: Episodes 67 and 68 Subbed [Finalized])

(Check out my Subbed!GX Stream Masterpost!)

Chronos VS Napoleon! March of the Toy Soldiers

Interim Principal Chronos and Vice-Principal Napoleon quarrel over the abolition of the Red dorm, and the two Instructors soon decide to duel.  Three Toy Soldiers appear from Napoleon’s Army deck, and through the Forced March and Fife and Drum Corps Magic Cards, they inflict a lot of damage to Chronos.  In that moment, a power shovel* strikes the Red dorm, starting its demolition–but as Chronos uses his Antique Gear Monsters to retaliate, his carpenters begin to rebuild it.

(*The original Japanese summary refers to a wrecking ball here, but the entire episode it’s just Napoleon’s power shovel tearing at the Red dorm.)

Asuka VS Manjoume White Thunder!

Manjoume defeats the Blue students one by one, bleaching the Blue dorm white in a baffling course of action.  He goes on to say that the Society of Light, led by Saiou, will finish the academy, and Asuka duels him hoping to put a stop to that.  Manjoume’s “Hell’s White” Permanent Magic inflicts 600 damage to his opponent, in exchange for forcing him to play while displaying his hand–a strategy that throws Asuka off her game, as Manjoume wastes no time in using his Armed Dragons to corner her.

Hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving! (Or your regular Thursday if you’re not in the US.) I’ve got finalized!69 and 70 here coming in like a wrecking ball~ (Which… is actually a bit of an accurate reference, given how things change with the Society of Light plot starting here, lol.) These two episodes are fun and interesting to watch, as 69 treats us to Chronos’s first duel of Season 2 and Napoleon’s first ever, as best professor Chronos shows us more character development while standing between Napoleon and tearing down the Red dorm, and takes some… damage for it.  70 kicks the Society of Light plot we’ve been lowkey building up since 61 into gear, as Manjoume White Thunder suddenly becomes a threat and single-handedly bleaches his former Blue dorm white while everyone else was focused on the Red mess;  Asuka steps in to try and snap him out of it, her “we forge our own fates” philosophy clashing with Manjoume’s “we can’t stop fate” one, but Manjoume’s able to get Asuka overthinking her strategies (causing her to break YGO’s “don’t think about your endgame” rule) and that ultimately leads to her fated defeat as she joins Manjoume in the SoL.  She does share a good character moment with Fubuki, though, as he tells her how proud of her he is for being so determined to find him–a message that he luckily doesn’t feel a need to sing–while the moment where Judai and the others question Manjoume’s sanity is great.

Animation-fix-wise, there were several card-related fixes I worked on, mostly in 69 as 70 was pretty good about that; both also got one or two quality-of-watching fixes.  Details below the cut, as usual, along with a quick Translation Note for one of Napoleon’s lines in 69.  I also chose to remove quite a bit of the extra Italian/French words I put into Chronos’s and Napoleon’s dialogue in my original run-through of 69, since I thought it might’ve been… a bit overkill. 😅 And since at this point I’ve been consistently handling Chronos’s “[na] no ne”s with “[now,] won’t [I/it/etc]?/no?” and Napoleon’s “de aru” through having him speak more elegantly/pompously, so it’s their general speaking styles that they take issue with about each other here.

Enjoy, folks; these are now up on NAC~ Our next double-release’ll cover 71 and 72, as Judai faces the Academia’s resident game champ and a deck-destruction strategy–both are interesting episodes (and ones I haven’t revisited in a while).  Stay tuned!
