But didn't Sophia predate this? Pretty sure she needed most summons of the time to summon her.

Why not just post the original Spirit summoning pasta? It was funnier.

I don't get why people think the show has production issues.

this post is sponsered by the show an

Always hilarious.

I got you senpai
Have you guys heard about the upcoming "Spirit" mechanic? It's a new mechanic that will be introduced in DSoD, according to an user who claims to work at Konami(me).

Basically, the mechanic is based on the "TAMASHII" meme. It revolves around Spirit monsters, a new type of Extra Deck monsters that will require you to tribute certain types of monsters in order to be summoned(such as one Fusion monster and one Synchro monster). You can only run one singular Spirit monster, as it is supposed to represent your TAMASHII.

As I said earlier, the mechanic will be introduced in DSoD. Each of the main characters of the movie(Yugi, Kaiba and Aigami) will use one. It'll also link the DM universe to the Arc-V universe, because G.O.D. Genesis Omega Dragon, the Arc-V ultimate boss monster, will be a Spirit monster that requires you to tribute one Pendulum Dragon monster, one Synchro Dragon monster, one Xyz Dragon monster and one Fusion Dragon monster in order to be summoned from the Extra Deck.

Spirit, as a mechanic, will also serve as a premise for the next series, à la Pendulum for Arc-V. I already know what the next series is about, but all I can say is that the protagonist will be similar to Dark Bakura in appearance, and his character will be a mix of Yusei, Shun, Yuto and Yuzu. He will also be an absolute master of the Spirit mechanic.

Stay hyped, guys!

That is how you do an ace monster Arc-V. Not your crappy Odd-Eyes forms.

Hope was god awful and had too many forms. Stardust Dragon, Flame Wingman and Junk Warrior are better examples.

Completely sure I'm not a faggot.

Heck, no relationship is very well-represented, period. Het or gay.

to be completely honest with you desu senpai I still get butthurt about it because my original Chaos Summoning post from February predated that silly Spirit Summon pasta which was nothing more than a rip off of my idea

>all I can say is that the protagonist will be similar to Dark Bakura in appearance
Not really...
>and his character will be a mix of Yusei, Shun, Yuto and Yuzu.
He doesn't like to stand out, so why not.

I always loved ZEXAL. Mahou Shounen/Proto-Fourze always gets me hyped.

Though he was also similar to Double for me.

There is no such thing as too many forms. Each one served a purpose in and out of the plot. They each marked a different point of Yuma or Astral's character. Flamewingman has one evolution and Junk Warrior has none. Stardust was decent

>Yuzu
>not stand out
I'd changed that to Serena.

Reminder, Arc-V production is so fucked up one of the animators tweeted this

>"Finishing it by the end of the year is nice and all, but I'm just sitting here thinking "So can you please give us details?" What do they want us to do? Just make up something random and draw whatever?"

Thanks Ono.

>They each marked a different point of Yuma or Astral's character
That was unneeded. They were just cheap powerups.

(You want some of these?)

No, this is not true.

Each form of Hope and ZEXAL was created as a consolidation and/or mending of their friendship or to show off the character development (like in Roots' case)

>nice and all
>draw whatever
She's trying to be as respectful as possible towards her superiors and the tweet is written in a light-hearted tone, so your translation is pretty bad.

How was it unneeded?

That's why they're cheap. Cheap symbolism. It was a cheap way to convey the fact that Yuma grew to the watcher, and overall just an excuse to print more cards.

I just realised Zarc didn't have the pendulum swinging animation when he pendulum summoned.

That doesn't make them cheap. Character growth is always symbolized by monsters in this franchise. Each Stardust evolution was the exact same thing. So were things like Rainbow Neos, Neos Wiseman and the Neos deck as a whole. Yuya has Rebellion, Brave-Eyes, his Synchro monsters and Raging.

Congratulations! You just found out that this is a show to sell cards!

But really, I'm glad Hope forms had their reasons to be. That is not cheap at all when you remember that nobody ever buys cards onscreen anymore (a fact that always bugged me a bit)

Junk Warrior didn't need any upgrades
SCRAPPU FIST

pendulum only appears on those wearing that pendant (which was only Yuya)

I know I may be missing some details from not watching some episodes but... Why it seemed like nobody reallh called out Leo on his bullshit plan that ended up destroying everyone anyways?! (OK, apart from Reiji)

Especially since there were plenty of evil actions that were just evil for evil's sake from his part, like what he did to everyone in Academia (especially Yuri) and the invasion of Heartland. I mean, what the fuck did that atrocity accomplish?! If he wanted his daughter, he could have had someone slipping in and take her to him.

5D's didn't have that many boss monsters, and at least took the time to properly introduce them to the viewers with actual build-up. Shooting Star Dragon was foreshadowed long before its first appearance, and Bruno always hinted at something greater than Accel Synchro, which is why SSD and SQD always felt significant. But in Zexal, the way Hope evolutions were delivered felt like a reverse monster of the week type of thing and I hated Yoshida for that. It should have felt like a pitiful attempt to shill cards to anyone who isn't 9, because unlike in 5D's they didn't even try to hide it with kick ass music and visual direction, instead relying on those boring CG models as Yuma kept pulling bosses out of his ass. Zexal never topped the scene where Yusei summons Shooting Star Dragon, and for good reason. Kuwahara is actually inferior to Ono.

Still doesn't hide the fact that production is bad. They're just being nice about it but it's an issue.

5Ds not having many boss monsters just goes to show how it sucks, even as a card game commercial.

they made serpent night dragon a human now?

No, it just makes the bosses all the more significant to the watcher. Not to mention that Hope's design and effects, no matter the form, were really boring.

wlep only the first arc of 5Ds is barely good so...

I say Yusaku will be our first genuine shy protagonist and be all moe as hell!!

>first genuine shy protagonist

We already had Yugi.

Atem was the protagonist.

Fucking finally

They are not that boring.

BUT not having many boss monsters means that kids won't like this show a lot, as it was mentioned in the last thread, kids like watching the monsters.

Probably another reason why 5Ds flopped in Japan.

>using ritual

Shooting Star was the only built up monster. No one else got one. Shooting Star's summon was cool but that was more the music than the summon itself.Every one of Hope's evolutions meant something and was handled well. They weren't monster of the week because of the time and distance between them as well as the significance of each one. They didn't pop up out of nowhere. They were always emphasized by character growth culminating in Yuma creating a Hope that looks like him.

He was not very shy. In the anime at least, I know he is more shy in the manga.

he lost to yugi at the finale, so no.

That doesn't speak for the show's actual quality. It just shows that kids have different standards.

>Zexal never topped the scene where Yusei summons Shooting Star Dragon

I disagree

youtube.com/watch?v=QG9oamijzZ4

Who said I was talking about the quality right now?

The bosses aren't significant because outside of Yusei's they are barely used. People complain about Zexal being turtle behind one monster all day but Jack has like 4 Synchro monsters and always summons Red Daemon. Yusei's later duels boiled down to Shooting Star. Saver Star was so hard to summon that it barely got used later on.

>Carries the entire show
>"b-but he lost at the end!"
The ceremonial duel was nothing more than a baton pass, you baka. It was time for Yugi to start his own story, which is why the ending hints at a new adventure.

He only cares about the music from Shooting Star. If this scene had J-Rock playing over it people would go gaga for it.

...

I bet someone in this thread is jelly right now

I was talking about the reason why 5Ds failed as a card game commercial, user.

pls senpai, go away with your ded egyptian boyfriend

Way to go, you just reduced my entire argument to nothing. I bet that must make you feel great, being such a toxic poster.

>Not liking the superior mechanic

It wasn't just the music. The choice of imagery was also amazingly thought up. But even if it was, it doesn't matter. Choice of music is also a part of direction,

You never had an argument in the first place. Delusional 5Dsfags are the worst.

ZEXAL summons were more awesome than 5Ds ones.

Tachyon's first summon blows most summons in the franchise out of the water. That chant is amazing too. Kaito's summons destroy Yusei's too.

Literally Sophia and Elder Entities

Says the autistic zexalfag.

You just couldn't deal with the fact that Kuwahara is less talented than Ono, so you had to start acting like a toxic faggot even though I tried to make my point as respectfully as possible. That's so retarded.
Hell, I'd actually rank Zexal above 5D's since I'm not a fucking idiot, but unlike you, I'm not the type to ignore its flaws just because I like it. Arc-V made you all go crazy. Zexal is still as bad as it goes.

I just hate how ZEXAL is always the underdog and 5Ds is given praise when ZEXAL is better than most people give credit and 5Ds isn't that good.

I am actually proud of you.
Same for this one even if it is the rival

*sighs* Sorry. Didn't mean alienate people. It's just that fans of 5Ds always trigger me because of

>being surprised that grownups on a grownup website like 5D's' mature, cyberpunk aesthetic better

You mean pretentiously edgy. There is nothing mature about pretending to be mature about a card game kids show.

Oh god, that's supposed to be good? At least post something like Tachyon or anything Galaxy-Eyes related, Jesus.

>there is nothing mature about adult characters and themes of classism and inequality
You're just ranting at this point.

It's just tacked on. If I wanted to see that kind of stuff, I would not go to YGO of ALL SHOWS to do that.

Who cares about you? I'm trying to explain why you shouldn't be surprised that it gets praised more often than Zexal on a website for adults. Stop trying to move the goalposts.

I need this movie right the fuck now

I would hardly say most people on this site act like grownups

1 more month. Buy your tickets if you haven't already. yugiohtickets.com

>Buy your tickets if you haven't already
Screw watching it on theaters i'll watch it on Kissanime day one

>dubs
>ever
I'd rather DIE.

But just in USA. Japan also hated it.

>speed duel
>superior mechanic

>Yugi using burn faggotry

well at least it was only a simulation

Then why complain? Japs like Zexal better. That's great, no?

5Ds' target audience is the older community.

Zexal targets little kids and has more japanese specific quirks.

Obviously a board like Sup Forums with lots of older non japanese people would be more preferential to 5Ds over zexal even if the latter was more successful with its target audience.

Yep. But the ZEXAL bashing I have seen gets grating.

pls someone post some Yuri faces from the Yuya duel

...

Zexal form II was probably the best design, 1 and 3 are just so eh

...

If you're willing to take the trouble to complain, why not post a better one instead?

check'em

The Obelisk Force may have been a bunch of schmucks, but their boss is even worse

I'm more interested in the post above. Did a drawfag ever deliver?

Yes

...

...

I thought the request was for Apprentice Illusion Magician and Dark Magician Girl

Here's something better

So I bought a bag of cards from a yard sale for 3 bucks and these are the holos.

How much are they worth?

Nah, I'll just take the masked hero Fusion monster on the top middle of the screen for $2 there you almost recovers your money

Just google "[card name] price"

i give you one dollar, best i can do

Do the Tyler Sisters have the biggest missed potential among ARC-V's minor supporting characters?

>Tons of one off porn
>Only doujins are them rapind Allen and at the very end moving on to Sayaka and one where they have a futa threesome with Yuya

No, I say they were used exactly as they were created. No fucking way were they created for anything in mind other than the few het doujins Arc-V has,

Pixiv user where are you? I need rankings.
