~Faytl~ Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 [spoiler=Thoughts on 54] Just a Yuzu and Yugo episode today, and I actually rather like that; Even without subs I love the dynamic they have. Yugo is adorable. I love him now. I also like how he seemed to genuinely be having an "Oh crap" moment when he realized Yuto wasn't actually an enemy and he seems to actually feel bad about it. Updated opening hu- JAAAACK. JAAAACK. JAAAACK. CROOOOOOW. And Jack has a new Duel Disk, neato. Little sad it's blade isn't straight like his old one but whatevs. Synchro Dimension seems to actually have the most varied Duel Disk designs thus far. We have the double-winged variety of Yuto's, we see the blade of Jack's looks like the majority of Standard Duel Disks, though with a triangle body, and the Security bros seem to have curved blades. Yuri (aka Mr. Steal Yo Girl) seen bein a dick as usual. RIDING DUERU, ACCELERATION! (New Speed World seems to only have an effect preventing it's destruction though... which makes me wonder WTF would happen if you bounced or banished it, since it says nothing about that). I wonder if it'll actually do anything like Speed World 2 did. Can't wait for next week. Everyone in Tops got very tetchy about Yugo's D-Wheel; No idea why. We see Rin. I like her design, and she DOES resemble Effect Veiler quite a bit. She was seen using Lucky Pied Piper; Uses Geminis maybe? Though I heard about some Forest archetype recently, maybe she'll use those? IDK. [/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mshends Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 [spoiler=Script 54] Note: the creator has been playing around with the name in this script (don't ask why, is a NAC joke thing) Last time’s Egao Count: 44 Monsieur Banane: Hey! Hey! Hey! Are you all right? Yuzu: Ahh…KYAAAAH! Monsieur Banane: Whoa…! Ouch… Monsieur Banane: I’m just trying to express my concern here, you know! I’m not gonna have any of your bullcrap, you crude girl! Yuzu: Eh? Narrator: D-Wheels. Duelists would fight their battles while riding these machines, The evolution of the Duel Disks. A Riding Duel is an exhilarating show from start to finish, Filled with speed and thrill. A symbol of freedom. (Opening Sequence) Monsieur Banane: It seems like nothing is broken. But you’ve gotta be more careful next time. I went through a lot of troubles building this thing, you know. Yuzu: This place is… Monsieur Banane: The City. This place is my hometown. Yuzu: The Battle Royale…!? Monsieur Banane: Hah? The heck is that? Yuzu: The Battle Royale round of the Junior Youth Championship! The Maiami Championship’s…! (I see. I… I was attacked by that Academia Duelist who looks like Yuuya… When the bracelet glowed, that Duelist disappeared, and then this guy…) Monsieur Banane: Rin! I’m so glad you’re all right! I’ve been searching for you! Rin! Yuzu: H-Hold on just a sec! I’m not Rin…! Monsieur Banane: What the? Yuzu: It glows again! Yuzu: (Could it be…Did it teleport me together with this guy?) Yuuya: Yuugo is another guy who looks like me… Yuzu: He looks just like Yuuya… Is your name Yuugo, by any chance? Monsieur Banane: Yeah! Finally, someone gets my name right! Yuzu: Then, are you affiliated with Fusion? Monsieur Banane: The hell did you just say to me!? Who the hell is Fusion? My name is Yuugo! Don’t get it wrong! As I thought, you’re not Rin. Yuzu: Eh? Monsieur Banane: Rin would never get my name wrong! Yuzu: Rin? Viewtiful Joe: Heh…You’re not half-bad. In that respect, you really are just like Ruri and Rin. Yuzu: That time, the Academia Duelist who tried to capture me Said that he kidnapped both Ruri and Rin… Monsieur Banane: What!? You ran into the bastard that kidnapped Rin!? Yuzu: Right before you showed up, I was dueling against him… Yuzu: Who is Rin? Monsieur Banane: Where is he right now!? Yuzu: I don’t know. He disappeared when my bracelet glowed. Monsieur Banane: Disappeared? Yuzu: That’s when you showed up… This bracelet had glowed several times before. It always happens whenever I’m with a person that looks like Yuuya. And when it stops glowing, the look-alike would disappear, and Yuuya would show up. That’s why that time, I thought that it must have been Yuuya! Yuzu: After that…The bracelet glowed again. When I came to, I was already here. This place isn’t Maiami City, right? The city that we live in… Monsieur Banane: Like I said, this place is called the City. Yuzu: The City? Monsieur Banane: I was born and raised in this town. That Standard place where you came from is a different dimension. Yuzu: A different dimension? Monsieur Banane: I guess anyone would be surprised by that… It’s your first time traveling across the dimensions, no? Yuzu: I traveled across the dimensions!? Monsieur Banane: Yup! I’ve done it several times already! So, there’s no mistake about it! Though, for me, this is just like coming home. But even I was surprised and freaked out When I traveled across the dimensions for the first time. It was that time, when Rin was kidnapped… Before that, Rin told me that she felt like she was being stalked by someone… I tried my best to protect her, but… Viewtiful Joe: Our little hide-and-seek game is over. Hehehe… Now then, why don’t you come with me? We’ll go to the Professor’s place. Monsieur Banane: Damn it! Where is she? Rin! Viewtiful Joe: Hmm? Monsieur Banane: You bastard! Where are you planning to take Rin to? Viewtiful Joe: Ehehe… Monsieur Banane: What the!? He has the same face as me! Viewtiful Joe: Magic Card, Violet Flash, activate! Monsieur Banane: Rin! Damn it all! Huh? Clear Wing? W-What’s going on? Monsieur Banane: By the time I realized it, I was already in Heartland. Yuzu: Heartland? The city in the Xyz Dimension? Monsieur Banane: That’s right. I still don’t know why I was teleported to that place. Monsieur Banane: What the hell happened to this place? Monsieur Banane: Thinking that Rin could be somewhere in that wasteland of a city, I kept running around and searched for her. Monsieur Banane: Rin! Hey! Are you out there? Rin! If you’re here, then answer me! Rin! You…! I’ve finally found you! I won’t let you get away! Mr. Egao: Are you from Academia, too? Monsieur Banane: Hah? Mr. Egao: I’m asking whether you’re a Fusion person or not! Monsieur Banane: Who the f*** is Fusion? MY NAME IS YUUGO! I won’t let you get away with this! I’m gonna kick your ass into next week! Mr. Egao: As I thought, you’re a Fusion pawn, aren’t you!? Monsieur Banane: Did you even listen to what I just said!? Monsieur Banane & Mr. Egao : DUEL! Yuzu: The person that you dueled… Monsieur Banane: He has the same face as me. He was an Xyz user. In order to take Rin back from him… Yuzu: You’ve got the wrong guy! That person was Yuuto! Monsieur Banane: Yuuto? Yuzu: Yuuto was trying to rescue Ruri, who was kidnapped in the Xyz Dimension. Yuuto would not kidnap your important person! Monsieur Banane: I-important person? Yuzu: That’s what she is to you, right? Because Rin is your girlfriend. Monsieur Banane: No, no, no, no! She’s just my childhood friend! There’s no way that she’s my girlfriend… Because…We haven’t really done anything significant… Yuzu: But why was you in Heartland? Monsieur Banane: This guy allowed me to chase after that bastard. He seems to know that I want to save Rin. Monsieur Banane: Now that you mentioned it, the person that kidnapped Rin… Yuzu: He was probably there! When you and Yuuto were dueling, He was probably close by… Viewtiful Joe: Ehehe… Monsieur Banane: What? So it was a misunderstanding on my part? Yuzu: Certainly, the Academia Duelist who tried to kidnap me bears a strong resemblance to Yuuto… The two of them also look like you… And Yuuya, too… Monsieur Banane: Hah? Yuzu: Yuuya showed up when I was with Yuuto, And you also showed up when I was about to be captured… It’s probably not a coincidence. Monsieur Banane: It’s not a coincidence? Then, is my Clear Wing Synchro Dragon behind all of that? Yuzu: I don’t know. But, maybe you guys are… Monsieur Banane: What about us? Yuzu: The people who have the same faces are probably drawn to each other somehow. Monsieur Banane: Now that I think about it, that time, there was also another guy who has the same face as me. No, no, no… Hold on a sec. Maybe it’s just a coincidence that we have the same face! That’s… Yuzu: It’s not just you guys. Monsieur Banane: Could it be… Yuzu: There are two other girls who look like me and Rin. One is Ruri. The other is Serena. Monsieur Banane: Serena? Yuzu: Like the person who came to kidnap me, Ruri, and Rin, she is an Academia Duelist. (Card game commercial. Brb.) Yuzu: The world is divided into four dimensions. Fusion. Synchro. Xyz. And Standard. The Academia from the Fusion Dimension is trying to fuse all four dimensions into one. Monsieur Banane: Fusing all four dimensions? Yuzu: The Academia even resorted to warfare, just to carry out that goal. Monsieur Banane: Those bastards did these things… So, is this Serena girl also a friend of the guy that kidnapped Rin? Is she a member of that evil army? Yuzu: Yeah. But right now, she is being pursued by the Academia. Monsieur Banane: Pursued? Why? Yuzu: The supreme leader of the Academia, known as the Professor, Is trying to gather Ruri, Rin, and other people who look like me together. I’m sure that’s why Serena is being pursued. Yuzu: I don’t know why the Professor is trying to gather us together. Why do all four of us have the same face? Why do all four of you also have the same face? Monsieur Banane: I’ve got it. Yuzu: Eh? Monsieur Banane: So Rin is at this Academia place, right? Let’s go, then! Yuzu: Where are we going? Monsieur Banane: Isn’t it obvious? If we know where Rin is, we can just go there and take her back. Yuzu: “Go there”? We’re going to the Academia? But how? Monsieur Banane: We’ll just have to use this thing! Yuzu: Eh? Monsieur Banane: This bracelet thingy has the ability to teleport you across the dimensions, right? That’s why you and I were thrown into this place. If you make this thing glow… Yuzu: I can’t. Monsieur Banane: Why? Yuzu: Because I can’t make it glow by myself. Monsieur Banane: Hah? Yuzu: I already told you, didn’t I? This bracelet only glows when Yuuya arrives at wherever I and the person who looks like him are. Monsieur Banane: Then, we’ll just have to go fetch this Yuuya guy, right? Yuzu: There’s no way we can do that. Monsieur Banane: Why can’t we do that? Yuzu: Because… Because Yuuya is… Yuuya is not in this place! Monsieur Banane: Here. Sorry. I didn’t mean to make you cry. Yuzu: Thank you. If I could use this bracelet whenever I want… I would have gone back home by now. Back to where Yuuya, Dad, and everyone are. Can you do something using the power of that card of yours? Monsieur Banane: Ah…sorry. I can’t really make this guy glow whenever I want. I’m really sorry about that. I always say whatever is on my mind right away. Rin always gets mad at me and keeps telling me to put more thoughts into my words. Yuzu: Eh? Monsieur Banane: She really loves nagging me. She kept telling me, “Don’t be like that! That’s not acceptable!” Yuzu: Ehehe… It’s like she’s your mom. Monsieur Banane: That’s what I thought! The two of us have never seen the faces of our real mothers, though. Yuzu: Eh? (Some woman screams) Some woman: Don’t touch that thing! Monsieur Banane: Crap! Some woman: Why did you do something like that? What are we going to do if you get infected by some kind of bacteria? Yuzu: What’s the matter, Yuugo? Some woman: Somebody, help! Please, can I get some people over here? Please!! Yuzu: Yuugo! Monsieur Banane: Put that on! Some rich dude: What’s the matter? Some other rich dude: Did something happen? Some woman: Over there! There’s some Commons over there! Some rich dude: Are you kids Commons? Some other rich dude: This residential area is reserved for the Tops, you know! Monsieur Banane: Crap… Get on! Yuzu: Heh? What’s going on? Some rich dude in the background: Come on! Everyone, get over here! Some Commons managed to sneak in! Monsieur Banane: We’ll talk later! Hurry up and get on! Some rich dude: Wait! Whoa…! Some other rich dude: Are you all right!? Some rich dude: Contact the Security! Yuzu: Hey! Why did you suddenly run away like that? Monsieur Banane: That was a residential area reserved for the Tops. I had a vague idea about it. But I was too absorbed in our talk, So by the time I realized it, it was already too late. Yuzu: Why did we have to leave? What are the Tops? Monsieur Banane: The Tops are the people who possess the City’s wealth and power. They are successful people of the highest caliber. Yuzu: Successful people? Monsieur Banane: This City, where I grew in, is a dog-eat-dog kind of town. The winners will have everything they want, And the losers will lose everything. Yuzu: Heh? Why? Monsieur Banane: Because it’s a competition. The winners are the Tops. These guys possess 99% of this town’s wealth. Even though they’re just a mere 1% of the population! (Capitalism, ho!) Yuzu: No way… Yuzu: It’s so beautiful…! Monsieur Banane: It’s amazing, isn’t it? This place is overflowing with light. Just how much wealth is kept in this place? However, just right below this… Yuzu: Hah! Monsieur Banane: The remaining 99% of the population live down there. Yuzu: Eh? Monsieur Banane: Down there are the Slum Quarters, where the losers of the competition dwell. My real hometown…Where I grew up. Monsieur Banane: The Tops call those of us who live in the Slum Quarters common civilians, the Commons. Officially, they are supposed to treat us fairly, But deep in their hearts, they only think of us as garbage. However, we’re not planning to live as garbage for the rest of our lives! Chibi Monsieur Banane: I Synchro Summon Magical Sword Dahma! Chibi Rin: I summon Lucky Pied Piper! Monsieur Banane: If the City is a merit-based competitive society, Then we’ll just have to climb up using our abilities! That’s what both I, and Rin, decided, And we’ve been polishing our Dueling skills since we were kids. There is a person who originally came from the facility where I grew up. Look! He’s just up ahead! JACK ATLAS, the Duel King. Yuzu: Duel King? Monsieur Banane: The first world champion who is a Common. He won the Friendship Cup, the biggest Duel festival of the City, And climbed to the top straightaway. (Yes, it is called the Friendship Cup. I’m not joking) He is our hero. If he can do it, Then another person who grew up in the same facility like me can also do it! With JACK as our objective, both Rin and I polished our skills… So that one day, we can participate in the Friendship Cup And fight against JACK… That’s our plan. Yuzu: Yuugo… Monsieur Banane: Rin and I built this D-Wheel together. So that I can have a Riding Duel against JACK. Yuzu: Riding Duel? Mr. Security Man: D-Wheeler in the front, Pull over right now! This is the Security! D-Wheeler in the front, Pull over right now! Monsieur Banane: Damn it. They probably reported us a little while ago. Yuzu: Wait. Shouldn’t you pull over? The person behind us is a policeman, you know? Monsieur Banane: They’re the Tops’ hunting dogs. Recently, they’ve been targeting us Commons! Yuzu: Even so, if we run away… Monsieur Banane: If you get caught, you’ll be sent to the detention facility! Yuzu: Detention facility? Monsieur Banane: They probably claimed that we were illegally breaking into the Tops’ residential area and assaulting the citizens, and then sent these guys after us. Yuzu: They can’t just do whatever they want! Monsieur Banane: Oh trust me, they can! Both the Tops, and the Security. Security officer: The escaping D-Wheeler, Is currently on Highway Number 8. He has been located by Duel Chaser 227, who is current pursuing him. The D-Wheeler had refused to follow our order and will not pull over. Security officer: The Duel Chaser is currently requesting permission for Coercive Enforcement. Jean-Michel: You have my permission to force him into a Duel. So, go and restrain the person who dared to defy the orders of the Security as quickly as you can. Mr. Security Man: Yes, sir. Commencing Coercive Enforcement. Field Magic, Speed World – Neo. Set On! Mr. Security Man’s D-Wheel: Duel Mode. On. Autopilot. Standby. Monsieur Banane’s D-Wheel: Duel Mode. On. Autopilot. Standby. Yuzu: W-what is this? Monsieur Banane: We’ve been forced into a Duel. If I lose, we’ll be arrested. Yuzu: Arrested!? Commoner: It’s a Duel! Female Announcer: A Duel is commencing. All vehicles that are currently on the route, Please exit it right now. A Duel is commencing. All vehicles that are currently on the route, Please exit it right now. Monsieur Banane: What’s your name? Yuzu: Huh? Monsieur Banane: You still haven’t told me your name. Yuzu: My name is Yuzu. Hiiragi Yuzu. Monsieur Banane: All right. You’d better hold on tight, Yuzu! I’m gonna show you what a Riding Duel is like! RIDING DUEL! ACCELERATION! (Preview for Episode 55) Melissa: Good evening, citizens of the City! This is Melissa Claire of Top City TV! (Not sure about whether it should be Top City TV. Pretty sure it has something to do with TV, though) Tonight, we shall bring everyone a breath-taking chase and an exhilarating Riding Duel! (You know, her name is Melissa Claire, right? If we rearrange her last name, we’ll get Carlie. Then take away the E, and change the I to a Y, and we’ll get Carly… To be fair though, we don’t have an official spelling of her name yet, as far as I know, so I’ll leave it at that.) Yuzu: Hey! Are you really planning to Duel while riding the motorcycle at the same time? Monsieur Banane: Of Course! Yuzu: Isn’t that kind of dangerous!? This is why I prefer to duel on the ground! Monsieur Banane: Here we go, Yuzu! Hold on tight, OK? Next time, on Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V: Public Safety Coercion - The Duel Chasers The fun has just begun!

evilfusion Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 [spoiler=Episode] So this episode somewhat confirmed my theory a while back about the misunderstanding about Yugo. Rin was kidnapped by Yuri first, and Clear Wing teleported Yugo to Heartland. Whether he was drawn specifically by the presence of 2 Dimensional Dragons in the same place or not is unclear (as this episode also indicated that Yuri WAS close to Yuto, and probably used the Duel as a distraction to snag Ruri without Yuto noticing), or it may very well have been tracking Yuri specifically. Unlikely, if only because Yugo hasn't been teleported to Academia directly. But new info is that Yugo saw Yuri's face. And what little of Yuri's hair beneath his cloak WOULD make Yuto look extremely similar. And this also meant Yugo was hostile by default, causing the confusion with Yugo being an enemy of Yuto.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Either way, still hyped about the stuff that's to come in the Synchro Dimension. Subs will likely be ready by tomorrow (although it is that time of the year again, so...) And yeah, a lot of new characters that hopefully will get introduced as this goes on. But like some people here, more/less awaiting the return of Jack/Crow (and maybe the twins if they were important enough to be remembered here, but I doubt it). EDIT: Well, I'll keep this Ruka avi for a while. I don't have any of Jack/Crow (or even Yusei) so this will have to do. (Also a nice change of scenery for a while) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mshends Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 not sure if I posted this before but.. Apparently, Yusei's VA's answer to "Hey why aren't you showing up?" in twitter was more or less the following."Well, I'm too busy going on dates with Aki at the skating rink. Jack, Crow, hope you two can find SATISFACTION soon." And with that, YuseiXAki was canonized :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warden Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Wasn't Goodwin the one making Jack hide the fact that he was from Satellite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeline15 Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 It's possible that the laws in City are different from those in Neo Domino. In 5Ds, it was illegal for Satellite citizens to carry decks, and own d-wheels. This seems to not be the case here, as Jack was allowed to enter the tournament, and the police never made any mention of Yugo's d-wheel, just the fact that he was in a tops park. Yugo said "on the surface we're treated equally, but inside we know they see us as trash". The aristocrats in 5Ds never even made the pretence of seeing satellite as anything other than scum. It seems to be more of a class divide than a "everyone from there is worthless criminal scum" situation, so Jack would have no reason to hide it.

evilfusion Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'm somewhat interested in whether the Synchro Dimension is an almost definitive AU world, or where the point of divergence would be if it was. Unlike Academia, which could be a future or alternate incarnation of Duel Academy from GX, the Synchro Dimension is all but certain to be an alternate canon timeline, because it's confirmed that Jack Atlas is a current character. If it is an alternate canon sort of thing, there needs to be some point in the history that caused it to develop in that way. So here's my first thought: The point of divergence is that Zero Reverse never happened. Momentum ultimately led to humanity's downfall and the destruction of the world, causing Z-One's attempts to fix it by, ironically, destroying the city. Yliaster tried numerous things to destroy Momentum, and the most significant was Zero Reverse. This is the event that physically split the City and the Satellite, and shaped Jack and Yusei's lives. Jack was born in the Satellite originally. Without Zero Reverse, Jack would STILL not have been born in the City (but Yusei would have been, but his personality and ideals were formed by living in the Satellite). Also, Zero Reverse was caused by Rudger with the influence of the Earthbound Gods. And this event also shaped Rex Godwin's life. He was the Legendary D-Wheeler who gave hope to the Satellite that it was possible to reach the City. Without Zero Reverse, he would never have needed to do this. He would never have ascended to the Security Director or put a huge plan in motion to gather the Signers to ultimately fight the Dark Signers. Because Rudger probably never met the Yliaster member who told him the key to awakening Uru. Because Yliaster never interfered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yusei-x-Aki is canon now? Well then... [spoiler=Thoughts on 54 Subbed] - Yugo was shocked when he first travelled through dimensions. Wouldn't we all? - When Yuzu asked if Rin was Yugo's GF, he was embarrassed and denied it. (Classic signs of love right there) - Yugo had a feeling that he was in an area exclusive to Tops, but by the time he realised, it was too late. In his defence though, he probs couldn't have controlled where he ended up when Yuzu had teleported him and her to the Synchro dimension. - The subs reveal that the city is a society of free competition where the winners get everything (become one of the 1% who control 99% of the city's wealth), and the losers lose everything. To add, the tops-dwellers think of the Commons as scum/losers. I smell a sense of familarity there. - Jack became the first king from the Commons after winning the Friendship cup, and Yugo and Rin made it their goal to participate in the Friendship Cup and duel Jack. (They also made Yugo's D-Wheel to face him in a riding duel) - Furthermore this Jack isn't hiding the fact that he was a Common (unlike in 5Ds where Godwin hid the fact that he was from Satellite).

Toffee. Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 So here's a thought... Considering Dennis' role in relation to the Fusion a Dimension, and how he is seemingly a parallel to Yuya...

Wouldn't it be safe to assume that Dennis is a reference to Jessie? But we don't even know Dennis' full role, other than he knows Yuri. We don't even know if he originated in the Fusion Dimension, or if he's from one of the other Dimensions, or if he's a Standard who happens to be allied with the Fusion. We don't even know for sure he's directly associated with the Fusion Dimension. It might be a connection exclusive to Yuri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 [spoiler=54 sub] Class system in Arc-V Neo Domino/City is rather reminiscent of real life; rich people monopolize a rather large amount of the total money but are the minority themselves. The people in Tops Arc-V are also the same as a lot of Neo Domino citizens were in 5Ds; although status-wise, they are equal. On an unrelated note, that same logic could be applied to YCM as well, in terms of the money/1% (in terms of the staff members [yeah, I have 37.6 percent of all of the money in YCM alone, e_e], although the money totals are probably lower in percentage; meh). Off-topic though. I could swear that Yugo was having a "thing" when asked about his relation to Rin, but probably a subber's thing to correlate with the action. Obviously not mentioning it by name, because of its nature. Sector Security / Duel Chasers go back to old 5Ds mentality from the subtitles. Well, at least we know how Jack ties into all this. Facility got mentioned, so likely he'll be using his manga form Deck instead of the anime one we all know. And likely the same will go for Crow. And yeah, a lot of my RAW thoughts carry over.

Progenitor Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Alright, 99% of the wealth is held and monopolized by 1%? How the flying fuck did people not realize the problem as it developed and stopped it. Those numbers are absurd. That means nearly all of the residents are living off 1% of the total revenue of a large city. They shouldn't even have houses. Those numbers are so astronomically insane I can't even imagine it. Once again, those numbers. Lets look at some math: New york city expects to earn through grants, taxes, and other such revenue around 77.7 Billion Dollars after subtracting expenditures (from some fiscal report I found somewhere. Not looking it up. 1% of that is 777 million dollars. New york has a rough population of 8.3 million people. 99% of that is 8.217 million. Lets see the net worth per person: 777 million / 8.217 million = $94.56 per year per person assuming everyone contributes equally to said wealth. That's absolutely absurd. the city would have to have a net wealth in beyond the trillions for the average people to be able to have a sustainable annual income.

Fusion X. Denver Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 The reason I think Dennis is from Fusion is because I'm almost positive blue ninja dude is his Standard counterpart. Also, interesting glimpse into the AU City I suppose. We finally saw Rin, but I noticed she wasn't added into the ending with the Yuzu cards.

The Warden Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well, the one thing that makes Dennies INCREDIBLY questionable is that he had a Polymerization, for whatever reason. It's likely that he is a Standard player, as Academia wouldn't use Xyz. And if he was from the Xyz dimension, he would've been hunted down and cardified. I doubt Academia would have been open to the prospect of making a deal. In all likelihood, Dennis' backstory of being a LDS student is probably true, as LDS students can dabble in more than one type of summon, though seem to choose not too, for whatever reason.

Progenitor Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well, it is kinda near to real-life wealth distribution, even though that's for the whole world. In Nairobi, for example, 73% of citizens live with less than 35 USD per month, which is less than a dollar per day. Still nowhere near that abysmal 94.56 USD per year, but not as impossible as you think. That, and it's completely possible that Yugo is simply making up numbers for emphasis. I wouldn't really think too hard about this. Sci-fi writers have no sense of scale, after all. [spoiler='By the way']Apparently, Yuzu's bracelet has something different from the others, as it's the only one that appears to be able to teleport away the Yuya doppelgangers, since Rin's had no effect when Yuri and Yugo were close. So, is it that Yuzu is somehow special since she's from Standard, or do the bracelets have different powers?[/spoiler] nonono you misunderstand. I was calculating estimated cumulative net worth at the end of this fiscal year, not Yearly Income. I mean that everyone is worth 94 dollars by the end of the fiscal year. That includes property, valuable possessions, stock presence, and anything else recognized by the government in addition to financial wealth. Imagine if everything you owned and all of your on hand or in back money added up to a net total of $94. That means my freaking Wii back at home is worth more than your entire existence.

evilfusion Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I just figured the whole 1% with 99% of wealth was just a reference to capitalism, with the numbers probably exaggerated either due to Yugo not comprehending the mathematics behind it, or the writers not comprehending the implications of the numbers. It's probably not going to be THAT significant a detail, but it gets the concept across: There's a tiny fraction of the population who are so freaking wealthy they essentially have control of everything in the city. It's probably just hyperbole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well, the one thing that makes Dennies INCREDIBLY questionable is that he had a Polymerization, for whatever reason. It's likely that he is a Standard player, as Academia wouldn't use Xyz. And if he was from the Xyz dimension, he would've been hunted down and cardified. I doubt Academia would have been open to the prospect of making a deal. In all likelihood, Dennis' backstory of being a LDS student is probably true, as LDS students can dabble in more than one type of summon, though seem to choose not too, for whatever reason. Maybe it's just user preference? Not all Archetypes are capable of pulling random monsters out of a hat, so that is likely another key behind the kinds of performances they are capable of. IE, if a deck prefers to Synchro Summon, then I highly doubt they will venture outside of that, given the intended script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet MS Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Suuuuurge of nostalgia. Love how they briefly went back to cover D-Wheels and Riding Duels like the 5Ds pre-OP narration. Have not heard the Riding Duel Autopilot voice in ages. Speed World Neo appears to be an alt-universe version of Speed World 2. Can't wait to see how it functions. Tops/Commons? It's the old City/Satellite type segregation from last timeline. Only with less of a physical barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 It's because they made references to 5Ds starting from here that I'm going back to listen to old 5Ds openings for nostalgia. (And of course, my Ruka avatar change) But yeah, I'm interested in how it [Speed World Neo] functions [and whether or not we get Speed Spells again]. Although given this one lacks the SPC boosting effect, I doubt it. I would hope for another opening by Masa'aki Endoh in ARC-V, but not getting my hopes for it in the near future.
