okay I think someone might have to put Yuma eating that tomato to Yusei’s Theme because just going by the subs here, it’d sound amazing
Guys, look; I just found a rejected dub!Kiryu audition clip! It’s leagues better than what we got! :o
Okay, this is something I made back in 2009 for April Fools, when the dub got up to Yusei VS Kiryu I, and everyone was wondering what he’d sound like. Naturally, I capitalized on that. XD So since I’m running low on last-minute ideas for this year, I thought I’d reupload this haha. Enjoy!
Believer (5D’s)
Just found this gem of an AMV on YouTube! (Edit: Apparently, they used to be on NicoNico, could be why it’s so good lol)
Set to “Believer” by IKUO, aka Digimon Savers’s evolution theme, it’s an AMV recapping the Ark Cradle arc in 5D’s. Very fitting, I’d say, considering the line “mirai e shooting star” and Yusei being known as the “Shooting Star of Satellite…” haha.
So my website’s back online! Wanna read up on some 5D’s sub/dub comparisons? Check it out here!
Fun Fact:
If you have Volume 5 of the 5D’s manga (or Ride 33), turn to page 21 with Jack’s “The duel[ing] of one who creates possibilities! The duel[ing] of a King!” lines. Have “Jack Battle” cued up. Turn the page and start playing “Jack Battle” as Jack starts his turn. Imagine everything happening as it would in the show, and it’ll flow perfectly ‘til the end of the chapter.
I played it while reading it on the train the other day and I was surprised then again not really that it worked so well haha.
wow I thought the clock episode in 5D’s was kinda bad but it figures the dub made it worse
-Zola explaining why she’s so calm with Yusei and not Crow->“oh I’m just yelling at you because my son’s coming and I need PRACTICE” also the fact that she already knew he was coming
-for some reason, Lyndon wants to be a duelist and just randomly squeezed in a clock-repair class; pretty sure Leo left to study clocks.
-“I used to tie my father’s bowties too”->“psychic dueling and bowties, my specialties”
-Leo trying to fix the clock by starting up the stopped gears->Lyndon just tinkering around. also WILL. NOT. SHUT. UP. during his flashbacks.
-apparently Yusei knew Crow planned to lose on purpose, even though Crow set Mirror Force possibly still trying to win, and JP Yusei mentions it being a turnaround card
-JP Crow’s “You don’t get do-overs in life!” line is replaced with something else
-ALL THE TIME PUNS
-also Lyndon calls his Clock Knight a “Clockwing” at one point. there’s a joke in there somewhere
I mean I thought this was the stretch of episodes where they were starting to be more accurate to the script wow
Rewatching 5D’s 78 (Rua/Ruka VS Lucciano P2) when
Ruka (after Rua’s saved from falling a hundred feet or two by the Crimson Dragon): “But what was that? That heartbeat I felt…” (rough translation)
Anyone else sense a Rua/Ruka/Jack VS Aporia foreshadowing or is that just me
So apparently, there’s a dub opening for the Ark Cradle arc or something? Or it’s just a fan-made AMV and they can somehow edit the cards like 4Kids (see when Crow and Jack hold their cards in those Road to Tomorrow shots), considering the not-so-official-looking “Fight For The Future” line at the end. If it’s actually official, it’s weird considering how they stopped at 137 in the US, and since Germany and other places started using the Japanese version for post-DS!5D’s.
Meanwhile, the GX Season 4 opening this guy has up is definitely fan-made, so…
(Speaking of which, I wonder if the Italian dub’s gotten as far as the WRGP; I know Germany got close to the Ark Cradle…)
Also in case you missed it
HOLY SHIT GUYS MY 5D’s COMPARISON SITE IS BACK :O
If you had no idea about it, my site’s basically to 5D’s (and eventually GX and BBT) what yu-jyo.net is to DM, comparing the dub to the subbed version. Check it out here!
I guess that’s a good birthday present internet
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s Sound Duel 1 - 24. Jack Battle
My love for this song is like an ABSOLUTE POWERFORCEEEE!!!!!1!11!1
(Also, another fun fact: my last year in college, I had an alt rock radio show for the last month or two, and I decided to loop the beginning of the song into a 3:40~ish-long song to use as my BG theme while on the mic. 'twas fun. I even explained it one time, but lost it since I had to dump a lot of audio [a curse in a song, maybe]. I’d probably still use it if I got the chance again, it was a blast doing a show. I wonder who might’ve known it lol.)

It’s Tanabata and Yusei’s birthday so here’s a two in one art.
Fun fact: so in my Japanese class about 3 years ago, we had to work on a PowerPoint/sakubun (essay) for something about Japanese culture. I ended up choosing Tanabata especially because I knew about it through -OZONE-, and I played it for a bit to show how it was referenced. It was cool looking into what it originally came from (a story of two lovers being separated by the Milky Way and only getting to see each other one day a year [the “once a year” line in -OZONE-], and Altair and Vega being involved). I forget what grade I got on it, but I think my professor liked it, haha.
Also, I ended up looping both this Applause song from DM Duel 2 and “Legend of the Signers” from 5D’s Sound Duel 2 to use in the presentation. I don’t think anyone recognized them. hehe
