Chaos Dralcax Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IG-_-X0LYA[/url] WTF? Realistic card backs? Scouter-like things? Kids shouting while hitting each other with the new "Duel Disks"? A short, posessed looking kid standing in front of a full moon? A big guy running backwards to be next to some kids? Tug of war with a small, rectangular object? Gigantic rice balls? Kick the can with weird round robots? Hair with so much gel, spray, and girly product that it looks like plastic? Man, this season might even be weirder than GX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Zero Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 This season is good. Try watching it, instead of going based on the opening theme. btw, has anyone got a link to the new raw episode? Everywhere I go only has the last half.

[/quote] Zexal is actually my favorite so far, and I'm following all the way back to season 0. -Season Zero and DM have credit because they started from scratch and weren't bad, but their game is kind of primitive at this point (a re-make would be awesome xD ) -GX is (to my eyes) bad. In the previous generation most Duels were plot relevant, but GX was random and stupid. The idea of a Duel Academy as opposed to the previous main characters' real schools is something I never adapted to. I actually quit for a while when I saw an episode when Jaden was dueling a monkey that escaped from a hidden lab. Damn not only was that situation an insult to the audience's intelligence already but if the entire island is part of the academy, how the hell did those guys go without anybody knowing and even construct a lab in the first place? -5ds was both bad and good. I liked it, but at the end there were too many things that left me unsatisfied. *Having 6 signers *Yusei never lost a Duel officially and in-screen. *Aki became nothing but a cheerleader and fan-service character from the middle of season 2 upward. *Ruka didn't have a point.... ever. Seriously if they couldn't find enough material for each main character what's the point of having them? *Rua's Lifestream should have appeared like... 2 years sooner than that AND as a generic Synchro instead of a bad plot device with the bad and predictable idea of removing its armor (that no one know how he got to be covered by such armor to begin with and is never explained). *Z-one should have been Yusei for real. ... I could keep going with lots of things but I'll stop there for now. -Being new, Zexal still doesn't have irreparable flaws and so far is interesting enough. It has potential. If you don't even know half of the things I'm talking about and just hated on Zexal upon clicking on the opening without an open mind, you don't even deserve to be here badmouthing something you don't even care to look up first before judging. OT: I just realized that Zexal will have more "legendary cards" than all other series combined xD No. X100 By the way, does anyone else here suspects that getting all the numbers won't be the end or even half of the story? I feel that its like with Yugi when he collected his 10 pieces (7 Millenium Articles and 3 Egyptian Gods) and there still were 2-3 anime seasons and 1 more manga season afterwards. After all, its only for the main character's "other half" to recover its memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I have a hunch that collecting all the Numbers will make way for something else to occur. We dont actually know the majority of Astral's memory or anything about the Astral world. My bet is that Astral regaining his memory will be just the beginning. Alternatively, the Numbers hunt will span more than one arc/season, but with Kaito in possession of 11, and Yuma now holding 7, plus the hint that the next duel will have 2 Numbers involved, this is becoming less likely.

Merci Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 They ARE going to create every single Numbers card, but half of them will be revealed in the anime, while the other half in the manga, and there's a 50/50 chance that it'll be anime/manga-only.

Jord200 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Well curently, we know of 14 Numbers by name. So far, 4 of them are anime only. So yeah, there's a good chance a good chunk of the Numbers will be anime/manga only. We may see some of them in Tag Force 7 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burnpsy Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 So, guys, Blade Heart's attack... I tried translating it. But both Klavier and I heard either "Enjibatou - Kasumigiri" or "Ejibatou - Kasumigiri" "Kasumigiri" means "Mist Slash", that was easy, but the other part worries me. Enji = kindergarten pupil; kindergartener; swallow; young of the swallow; rouge; lipstick; dark-red pigment; (inadvertent) insertion of a character in a text Eji = soldiers of the ritsuryo system that guarded gates of the imperial palace, the court, etc.; term used in error to refer to young men that were made to do forced labour in the ritsuryo system; guards originally stationed at the grand shrine at Ise and shrine at Atsuta, Nagoya to protect the officials there Batou = abuse; disparagement; Hayagriva; Horsehead (tantric Buddhist deity) None of the ways to translate that make any sense. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 It's something that would make sense in Japanese, but nonsensical and uncool if you directly translate it into English, especially since Eji has no EXACT English one-word counterpart.

Only GX stays out for the moment. And if I am right, ZEXAL occurs before 5D's, but after GX (and in another city). It is possible 5D's and ZEXAL occur on the same moment though, and then a Yusei vs Yuma last episode is possible, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 GOLDRAT is the- *Rereads conditions for Illuminight*. . . Yeah, Illuminight is the worst. I could summon Disigma instead! Who'd ever wanna use Illuminight? If it was Rank 1 or 2 then Goldrat would be the worst, since at least Illuminight can set up your graveyard. . . but seriously? Yusei's monsters only don't appear because [b]only Neo Domino recognizes his true hero-ness.[/b] The WRGP recognizes him as a champion, sure, but everyone knows [b]Yugi was the original Duel King[/b], and [b]Jaden saved the world from darkness (Yeah, EVERYBODY ON THE PLANET experienced that, and EVERYBODY heard Jaden's voice of encouragement)[/b]. But although Yusei also saved the world, from the Dark Signers, only Neo Domino recognizes this fact, the entire world in whole only recognizes him as the champion of the WRGP and just another Duel King. In fact, in 5Ds, [b]Zone[/b] only threatened[b] Neo Domino's destruction[/b], [b]not the destruction of the entire world[/b]. And since the entire world didn't experience despair from the hands of the Dark Signers like with Jaden, they probably disregarded Yusei saving the world from the Dark Signers as an exaggeration of his popularity. That can explain why Yusei doesn't get statues. He's Neo Domino's hero, not the worlds' hero, and once again, the rest of the world would have disregarded his saving the world from the Dark Signers as an exaggeration.
