Subs fucking when?

Subs fucking when?

[spoilers]I've already seen the dub and it wasn't bad [/spoilers]

Are these shows even worth a look if you don't play the game?

>fucked up the spoiler tags in the OP
fug

Yes.

the wait is rough user

some are, some arn't. Manga of the original, this movie, and The first 64 episodes of 5Ds are widely agreed to be the best part of the franchise, and everything else is pretty disputed.

Just kind of figured people only watched it because of the game, so doing something like a movie featuring the original characters is kind of pointless. Remember hearing the original anime wasn't very strict about the rules and was less for players.

That's not how you use spoiler tags OP.
Dub was grating for me. I'm waiting for subs.

the manga for the original doesn't even have the card game for 8 volumes. The only thing the anime has over the manga in my opinion is the lack of voices.

So did Kaiba die at the end to see Atem?

I watch it for the faces

Yes.

Together in death

The villain was incredibly weak and had too much screen time.

I always thought of the shows as an introduction to the card game

Anyone know if the new 5Ds upload is any good?

According to fucking who?

The early manga was so hated it nearly got the series cancelled, and 5Ds was the most hated/lowest ranking series until ARCV came along

Early 5Ds is loved in the west for having a decent plotline for once and being a lot different from the rest.
Early manga isn't that good, yeah, but it had a lot of important character building moments that really helped you get to know the characters. Joey's arc is cut in half by the anime,and Yugi and Bakura get their screentime chopped. also Dungeon Dice Monsters in the manga was actually pretty good, which makes Duke Devlin a lot more likable

>most hated
5D's was more neglected and ignored, rather than actively hated in the same way Arc-V gets hate

You keep using the word hate but I don't think it means what you think it means. A series failing to catch enough attention and falling towards the wayside isn't the same thing as getting actively bashed and gaining a lot of infamy.

Check 9anime

>muh children card games in le motorcycle
thanks LK for completely ignore the series and missing out how good it is. Although it has its flaws, is definitely not because of the d-wheel. it got dark like GX season 4 which most didn't know about it and i think it was great but I guess it will be the last time we get someone around Yusei's age as protagonist

YGO Manga is really good, people should definitely give it a chance. specially if they want to watch the movie TDSoD

No one hated the early manga. It just wasn't that popular. Same reason with the last arc because not enough card games. Same with 5Ds. It wasn't hated either. Just unpopular because the kids who grew up with DM were too old for YGO and 5Ds failed to catch a new audience of kids which is why they had to do ZEXAL to appeal to smaller kids and get YGO back on track.

>in the west

The west also thinks the dub is good

Yeah, its definate the kids shitbombing Niconico rankings and voting in character polls

>shitbombing Niconico rankings

This is only happening because Arc-V is sewer trash. They are giving it low ratings because they hate it. They never shitbombed the rankings back in the Standard arc because that was actually good.


Character polls as far as I know are mostly done in YGO cafes, which many women attend. So I guess it's mostly females voting on those.

LittleKuriboh has nothing to do with 5Ds being disliked

if only City arc didn't take that long now we have a very rushed closure

Ono is a hack who used ARCV to suck off 5Ds even more. Why Konami doesnt blacklist his ass is beyond me.

Does Kaiba lose again?

maybe

No, he was about to beat Yugi with his facedown card that somehow had to do with keeping 100LP left but because they can't show Kaiba beating Yugi fair and square, the duel had to be interrupted by alien malik

I havent touched the game since the US version is butcheree, price hiked jew shit, but I still watch the anime (subbed)

So same shit that happened in YGO The Movie?

HA. His facedown card was a useless Polymerization. He got his shit kicked in by based Yugi.

i just downloaded the ios app to fool around a bit, years after watching the dub as a kid
the show doesnt even seem to have ever followed the actual rules of the game. i got the sense of it sometimes – e.g. the bizarre rules of the winged dragon of ra didn't seem like they could actually be implemented in an actual card game – but didn't realize just how little regard was maintained even for the idea of when to place trap cards, etc. during your turn

pyramid of light? i don't remember how that duel went

they never shown what was his facedown card but you could see that his LP were suppose to go down to 0 but stopped at 100. Kaiba can beat Yugi anytime but who he has never beat was Atem

>they never shown what was his facedown card

It's implied it was Polymerization. If you follow each turn of the duel and see every card he played and what was in his hand it is the only card that could have been that facedown other than High Speed Aria.

Also Kaiba took the Dark Magician attack head on and was already in the damage calculation step so he basically lost but the meter stopped at 100 because Aigami interfered with the system not because of his face down card.

What's the point of making a movie 10 years after the series ended just so Kaiba can lose again to Yugi or his imaginary boyfriend?

>just so Kaiba can lose again

Because Kaiba is being delusional and a grief-stricken mess and needs someone to slap his face with the hand of reality.

to give Kaiba (and some other characters) an actual ending to their arcs, since the manga was canceled.

5DS being good at start is more of a Sup Forums meme to fool you into watching the most idiotic idea ever conceived on how to play card games.

Nope, Kaiba ends up making games with Yugi in space after the movie

What was Kaiba's facedown?

Polymerization.

I gave up on 5Ds after 26 episodes because I found it boring and none of the characters interesting. GX and Zexal get shit on in these threads, but I mirror Japan in liking them more. Theyre more fun with more interesting characters and more vivid settings. Dinosaur boy, cat girl, black guy with a gun duel disk, girl with a rocket. 5Ds just seemed kinda bland to me. Too serious for a merch show

Here's the play by play rundown in case anyone is wondering.

YUGI V KAIBA:

-Both draw 5 cards

>Turn 1: Yugi - Draw. Normal Summon Marshmacaron and plays 2 face down. [Cards in Yugi's hand: 3]

>Turn 2: Kaiba - Draw. Normal Summon Assault Wyvern. Destroy Marshmacaron. Marshmacaron effect -> Yugi special summon 2 more from his deck -> Assault Wyvern effect to special summon one Dragon from Kaiba's hand, he chooses Blue-Eyes. Then Kaiba activates Dragon Fighting Spirit which lets him attack 3 times, he destroys the 2 Marshmacaron Yugi special summoned and one direct attack to Yugi LP.

Yugi LP: 8000 -> 5000

Yugi then activates Dark Horizon allowing him to special summon Dark Magician. Kaiba plays a face-down and ends his turn. [Cards in Kaiba's hand: 2]

>Turn 3: Yugi - Draw. Plays one card face-down. [Cards in Yugi's hand: 3]

>Turn 4: Kaiba - Draw. Blue-Eyes attacks Dark Magician, but Yugi activates Metamorphotress to special summon the trap card as a monster and equip Dark Magician to it, it has 3500 atk points. Kaiba chooses not to attack and end his turn. [Cards in Kaiba's hand: 3]

>Turn 5: Yugi - Draw. Switch Metamorphotress to ATK, destroys Blue-Eyes.

Kaiba LP: 8000 -> 7500

Metamorphotress eff activate to switch to DEF. [Cards in Yugi's hand: 4]

>Turn 6: Kaiba - Draw. We see Kaiba's hand for the first time. It contains: Polymerization, Chaos Form, Blue-Eyes, and Chaos MAX. Kaiba activates Chaos Form and summons Chaos MAX in his hand using the Blue-Eyes in grave. Chaos MAX destroys Metamorphotress and deals dbl piercing damage.

Yugi LP: 5000 -> 4000

[Cards in Kaiba's hand: 2 - Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Polymerization]

>Turn 7: Yugi - Draw. Normal summon Apple Magician Girl and play one face-down. [Cards in Yugi's hand: 3]

>Turn 8: Kaiba

Draw. Chaos MAX attacks Apple -> Yugi activates Apple effect to special summon Lemon from hand and halve Chaos MAX attack (4000 -> 2000) -> Yugi activates Lemon effect to special summon Dark Magician Girl from hand and halve again (2000 -> 1000) -> DMG destroys Chaos MAX.

Kaiba LP: 7500 -> 6500

Kaiba activates effect to special summon Deep-Eyes White Dragon from hand. Effect activates dealing 600 damage for every dragon monster in his grave. He has 3 so 1800.

Yugi LP: 4000 -> 2200

Deep-Eyes ATK becomes same as Chaos MAX (4000) and it destroys Lemon but Yugi activates Magician's Defense to halve damage.

Yugi LP: 2200 -> 600.

Kaiba places a face-down. [This has to be Polymerization because the only 2 cards he has in his hand are Blue-Eyes and Polymerization and you can't play Blue-Eyes in the Spell/Trap zone.]

[Cards in Kaiba's hand: 1 - Blue-Eyes White Dragon]

[Cards in Yugi's hand: 1]


>Turn 9: Yugi:

Draw. Activate Magical Contract Door to add a Spell to opponent's hand in exchange for adding a monster from deck to hand. He adds Gandora-X. Yugi tributes Lemon and DMG to summon Gandora-X and activate effect to destroy Deep-Eyes and deal its attack as dmg.

Kaiba LP: 6500 -> 2500

Deep-Eyes effect activates to destroy Gandora-X.

Kaiba has 2 face-downs. 1 is unknown, the other is an implied Polymerization. Kaiba then activates the unknown face-down: High Speed Aria. This lets him play the spell card Yugi gave him, Monster Reborn. He summons Deep-Eyes again so he can activate the effect to deal 600 damage and end the duel.

Yugi counters with Final Geas, banishing all monsters from both graveyards, including Deep-Eyes which prevents it from coming back and special summoning Dark Magician to his field. With only 1 face-down on Kaiba's field (almost 100% certainty is Polymerization), Yugi attacks him directly with Dark Magician.

Kaiba LP: 2500 -> 100 (would go to 0 but duel is interrupted before counter reaches 0)
