Helios - The Primordial Sun

The way they edited this card for the TCG is so funny. They literally gave this monster top surgery. That’s not even a joke. Of course, they also got rid of any definition in the crotch area, and also seem to have tried to reduce it’s hip size by… Literally moving the whole bottom right section of the card a few pixels over (flip between the original image and this one on the wiki to see what I mean), making some parts look a little off (the left wrist in particular suffers from this). Despite this editing mishap, I really like this interpretation of Helios. It feels both unique and pretty accurate for an ancient, powerful god. I may be a little biased in that I love designs that include weird floating objects that are meant to be heads, but I’ve never seen an interpretation of Helios before like this. I mean, even the translucent body and bandages are interesting. Overall, a solid design that screams “all powerful cosmic being.”

Rating: 10/10, -shoots transgenderification beams at you-

The parallel between Atem and Yugi meeting for the first time + Bakura and Ryou meeting for the first time, along with the contrasting outcomes of said meetings, is something to behold.

YUGI: This is… the other me… This is our first time meeting…

ATEM: Yes! You threw yourself into the game to fight with your friends! That courage brought us together!

Little Yugi’s blush! He’s so happy! Atem is so proud of him! This marks the start of mutual trust between the two.

Meanwhile,

BAKURA: Y-You’re…! Bakura Ryou!!

RYOU: I don’t want to lose any more friends!! Even if that means my heart shatters!

Ryou acts on that same courage (throws himself into the game to fight along with the others), and it brings the Bakuras together, albeit more turbulently and more angrily. This marks the day Bakura learns not to underestimate his host because if given the reason to do so, Ryou can and will destroy them no matter the cost. Is that why Bakura pushed Ryou down deeper into his heart? To the point that when Ryou re-emerges, he has no recollection of anything?

As an addendum, Atem alludes to the fact that spirits within the Millennium Items die along with its holders.

“If my other heart dies, so does mine.”

All of that to say two things:

- I wish Yugi and Ryou were better friends, considering that they’re both Item bearers! What a wasted opportunity!

- And I wish we saw more of the Bakuras talking and their relationship in general! A potential for a push-pull dynamic where even the readers wouldn’t know where the line is drawn between them because they’re both crafty!

And these two things further lead to thoughts of disappointment due to the lack of an actual role given to Ryou (and his absence in general) during the Memory World arc, which we’ll get to once I get to it during my JP reread.

tldr: these four are very fascinating and very cute 🤭 I wouldve loved a spin-off of them literally doing whatever

Wake Up Your Elemental HERO

(Previously: Episodes 95 and 96 Subbed [Finalized])

(Check out my Subbed!GX Stream Masterpost!)

TURN-97: He Appears! The Mysterious World Champ!

The true objective of GeneX, hosted by Principal Samejima, was to find who it is that holds the “ultimate D card.” Similarly, Ed Phoenix has been dueling in order to find the criminal who killed his father and walked away with that card. At the same time, the Dueling Pro League’s World Title Match was about to get underway–one involving the Champion who has ruled over the Pro League for the past decade, DD. DD is also Ed’s guardian, and his duel with Doctor Collector and his IQ of 200 gets underway. But their match is over in an instant–at the hands of DD, and the ultimate D card he used.

TURN-98: Activated at Last! The Ultimate D Card

Ed learns the truth–that DD, the World Champion, killed his father and stole his card–and is challenged to a duel.* Ed battles by making full use of his D-Hero cards, but just as it seemed that he was on equal footing with the World Champion, DD at last activates the ultimate D card, Bloo-D. Faced with this predicament, Ed…

*Should note the preview text I translated for this mentioned that he was challenged “for the key Saiou entrusted him with,” but… this wasn’t actually mentioned, and DD challenged him to a “duel to the death.” Though I guess that kinda works with how the dub tried to tie him to the Society of Light, lol.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A smidge late, but episodes 97 and 98 are finalized!

Got ourselves an interesting two-parter here, as we circle back to Ed’s season-long quest to find his father’s killer and the ultimate D card stolen from him, introducing us to his foster dad DD. Why is DD his foster dad? As we find out, for reasons–ones related to wanting to keep tabs on the investigation into all that. But in the years since, DD’s gone on to rule the Pro League for a decade, thanks in large part to the mysterious powers of the Light of Destruction within him–which, as Pegasus tells Samejima, is behind the Phoenixes’ tragedy and… several other events in history. Ed gets closure with his dad at the end of it all, as our ultimate D Bloo-D absorbed him, and he gets to finally get his life moving again.

Very much enjoyed these two episodes for what they were in completing Ed’s arc; I felt it pretty believable in GX’s context, with how his motivations were fueled by finding his dad’s killer now that he can do something about it, and his rise through the Pro League being to find the guy at the top who’d have his dad’s Bloo-D. Also a nice touch is that, when he finds out DD only took care of him as a means to keep up to speed on the investigation into it, Ed discards any sense of respect he had for him (notably, Ed initially used “anata” (a more polite-yet-casual “you”) with him, but once that revelation’s made, he switches to the ruder “kisama” and calls him “human trash” for what he did). Both were also screenwritten by Shin Yoshida, and 98 in particular gets helped by the animation work from Tea Sun In’s team.

Edit-wise, not as many as last time; I only touched up 97 in two spots, while 98 got more of the handful of fixes I made, totaling 10 for both episodes–97 was more consistency/quality-of-watching stuff, while 98 had that plus a couple of quick card fixes. Due to Tumblr’s dumb link limit in posts yeeting them out of the tags used for them and limiting their reach, and since I still wanted a visual element to it, I’ve made a separate post here with my usual fix/edit breakdown for the interested!

Quick housekeeping: made a quick revision to 95 to fix a consistency error in my translated credits; the name “Chan Yoon Lee” under the Key Animation credits should actually be “Chan Woong Lee;” since they’re a Key Animator consistently on Chi Man Park’s team, and the “Yoon Lee” name only shows up this once, it’s fair to say it was a typo on the JP team’s part. (EDIT, 7/6: Updated 98 to correct “an unique” typo in one of DD’s lines, and reword another one about Bloo-D’s absorbed souls later on.)

Anywho, enjoy! Next up, I’ll be working on 99-101 which work nicely to continue from where 98 leaves us as we start getting into Season 2’s endgame, with Ojin coming for Judai’s key and Ed confronting Saiou (in two really good episodes). I will be a bit more casual with it as my birthday’s next Monday and I may or may not have plans for it, lol, but stay tuned!
