heraldry_lord Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 [spoiler=Response response]I guess my main point was the You Show island bit:If he did teleport directly to the island, was he in You Show School already? It didn't seem like it because Asuka didn't appear to recognize him.Was he teleported to the island, but not in/near the school? That'd mean he'd be wandering around on his D-Wheel for (at least) two days without coming across the You Show school which seems... unlikely at best (and it would also contradict how he knew he was in the Fusion Dimension).Was he teleported to the mainland? Then how did he get to You Show island? Overthinking things ftw! [spoiler=Response] Last I checked, You Show is also on the mainland, so I'd describe your situation as confusion rather than "overthinking".

[spoiler=Response]Yeah you were overthinking it as the duel in this episode took place in the mainland; specifically the docks and he could've been riding around the streets (like Yuzu was when she ran from the Juvenile officers), having no idea where he is going.

Astro Dude Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 [spoiler ep. 106: Predator Plant protection program]- FINALLY, over 100 episodes in, an explanation of what happened with Yusho- More young Reiji is always good too- Another Yuzu shower scene? I'm seriously starting to question the show staff here. Not to mention the whole gimmick of changing her outfit every season when everyone else in the 4 worlds has dressed the same for the last year.- ALL the GX nostalgia- I love how wierded out Yuri is by Ojama king. Some things are too terrifying even for academia- So, it seems Yuri didn't know the VWXYZ cards or their fusion method existed. Seems like the whole "fusing without polymerisation" thing probably should have been a bigger plot point than this. He sort of just goes "oh, that's odd" and moves on.- Yugo is back. I approve of this.- Not gonna lie, more excited to see what Allen plays than what the sisters do, and I'm not even a big trains guy. Not sure why people think he's doing a Shining Draw though, it doesn't look nearly sparkly enough. We've seen people draw like that hundreds of time, with the trail of light etc... Out of curiosity.

Pchi Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 [spoiler=Stuff]Finally get to see the ending and... it was pretty meh, honestly. [spoiler=Reply]Agreed. Most mediocre ARC-V Ending ever :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 I actually really liked this episode. The nostalgia factor with the GX Fusions was nice, at least. And finally get to see Starve Venom in action. Seems fairly loyal to the RL version, except it gains ATK for ALL SSed monsters (like anime Rise Falcon), and possibly doesn't need to steal a Level 5+ monster's effect (although it did, so...) The subs are actually already out. I seriously saw the subs before either the script OR the raw. Which is...eerie. [spoiler=Episode thoughts. By which I mostly just mean Yuri] Yuri was a bit...over-hammy in this episode, though, and not really in a good way. I feel like the voice actor was phoning this one in. It's the sort of laughing and such that lacks the actual amusement in his voice, but isn't playing off the contrast. By that, I mean that previously, Yuri's scenes involve him using a laidback, almost friendly, Yuya-like voice (same voice actor), but his words and mannerisms are malicious, which is creepy because of the contrast with his voice. In this one, he kept shifting between the contrast of voice/intention, and the somewhat hammy laughter that lacks true enjoyment, and other Yuri scenes have him clearly sounding like he's enjoying himself. Or, I suppose it's possible that this is what makes Yuri's laughter creepy. He only sounds like he's truly enjoying himself when he's being predatory or sadistic, and the times he's too hammy (in my opinion) is when he's blatantly mocking someone (he acted this way towards Yugo previously, but not as badly). FINALLY, they learn what Yuri's name is. I was wondering how long that was going to take. And yay, Yugo! EDIT: That said, I LOVE Yuri's facial expressions. Particularly when he's talking to Yuzu, and when he's attacking Ojama King. And looking at Ojama King. Actually, the sheer fact that Ojama King makes Yuri completely "break character" is hilarious in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Huh, I suppose I'd gotten the wrong impression then.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Saves me from having to watch it twice now. [spoiler=106]Now we know what the hell happened to Yusho before episode 1; he went over to the Fusion Dimension to try stopping them, but got sent to Xyz instead (and it just happened to be on the day he was supposed to fight Ishijima [or whatever his dub name is]). SVFD just 5-man OTK'd the students (and that would literally be a 1-card OTK on each of them for real duels; at min. 8800). Well, there's also what happened with Shun and the 3 LDS students via Rise Falcon.Nice to see a lot of GX throwbacks in terms of monsters. Although it might've helped if they had played backrow or something, assuming the concept isn't foreign to them (I am not considering Fellow's Gift as such)Yuri was disgusted at Ojama King being summoned [and the effect]. (Now if only that student had summoned Knight too, Yuri would've been field clogged)Yugo reappears and Yuzu's bracelet activates, causing Yuri to go who knows where. That probably explains where HE went off to after Yuzu arrived during the 4 dragon encounter in Synchro.Asuka founded You Show with Yuya's dad after seeing what happened to her kouhai (getting carded after escaping). Oh right, and now Yuzu learns Yuri's name. (Asuka's going to have a long fill-in about what is happening) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 [spoiler Well...]It's actually kinda amusing. If VW kid actually used Fellow's Gift and gave his monster to Yuri, he'd only have 1 open monster zone and wouldn't have been able to OTK. Not that he would've been able to see what was coming, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that he would've been able to see what was coming, but... [spoiler=Response]Yuri would still have a 20/21 monster he could use to force Ojama King to attack position, and then wipe that out and leave his board clear for monsters. Of course, he'd have to wait for the OTK to occur, but yeah (unless he does some anime bullshit and plays a card that specifically lets him do stuff right afterwards). [spoiler=107 preview/ending]At least the ending isn't shoving DM in our faces anymore, but it was kinda meh. (The song itself is kinda dull)Sayaka uses Fairy Cheer Girl...yeah, let's assume that she uses Kotori.dek (without Barian's Force). Reminder that Kotori was shitty in ZEXAL and did next to nothing worth of importance.Yeah, that looked like a Shining Draw (or lucksacking) from Allen. Now let's see what he ends up playing next week, although I do expect him and Sayaka to get their asses kicked hard at that time.

(The song itself is kinda dull) [spoiler=Response]Kinda meh? It was extremely mediocre. At least the Dark Side of Dimensions trailer had something actually interesting and eye-pleasing going on, and saying that it's OK just because it's not the trailer is being a bit off the mark IMO. And, no offense meant, but what do you mean "shoving in our faces"? It's advertising for a movie that was still in cinemas, and it's not the first time they did it (Bonds Beyond Time). Furthermore, this is a nitpick, but DSoD is based on the original YGO manga, and not the DM anime, which are actually two different things, but it's a key part of the nostalgia train, so you're not wrong about that. OK, I'm done now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Got around to watching the subs, fraught with errors just like the previous two weeks."We two brothers are going to show your our true power." [spoiler=Thoughts on 106 Subbed]- So on the day he was due to fight Ishijima, Yusho used Reiji's teleport device intending to go to Academia, but he ended up in Xyz instead.- Following his return to Standard, Reiji removed Akaba Leo from his position and became president of Leo Corporation and wanted Yusho to lead the Lancers. We also learn that Real Solid Vision and Action Duels were created by Yusho and Akaba Leo.- So Alexis intended to join the Academia army, but she learned that the army was ordered to cardify civilians as well from a girl who wanted to run away with her, though she remained loyal to Academia until she encounted Yusho was was injured by Aster in Xyz. I wouldn't have thought that the students of Fusion's You Show Duel school had emotional wounds in their hearts after being sent to Xyz.- I didn't even notice Pendulum Sorcerer in the ending the first time I watched it tbph.

~British Soul~ Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 I don't think Allen is gonna use Trains (didn't think so despite his last name being Kozuki). When we see Allen perform what looks like a shining draw, he is controlling an Xyz monster and from a screenshot of that scene which was posted on the wiki, it looks to be a Rank 4.

I get it's nostalgia though, but after a while, there's only so much one wants to see of the DM cast (Aigami and the others are fine). But yes, the movie trailer ending was better than this one; too many Ppals in this ending. As for the song, it's not bad, but I think the previous ones were better.

King K. Azo Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Honestly, the credits give me hope for this arc. It's Yuya, Yuzu, and Gongenzaka. The three friends that are taking this crazy journey together. Okay, we all know I like Gongenzaka. And the last Arc, he had almost nothing, and he was barely featured in the opening or ending. Now, he has a bit more of a role. I hope he gets some character growth, or maybe a whole episode dedicated to him. I mean, at the rate it's going, he lost three duels in a row, and it'd be nice to see how that's affecting him. He used to be Yuya's protector, but now he's stagnating and Yuya is growing, Yuya protecting him now. It's be nice to see some character growth.

(Going about the song itself, not the actual ending scenes) [spoiler=Response]a.) Again, it's not DM, not really, even though we're talking about the same core characters. In fact, IIRC, Takahashi only agreed to it because he realized he had loose ends in his manga story that he needed to tie up. b.) Why is the Bonds Beyond Time trailer better just because GX and 5Ds are in it? To be fair, that one was actually a part of 5Ds' canon, but as a reminder, that movie allegedly contributed to the filler hell at the time, and from the summaries I've read of DSoD, DSoD seems to be miles better than BBT. I'm trying to understand where this nostalgia hate is coming from. Furthermore, the actual ED at that time was, to me, more creative than this one. c.) The Performapals weren't the only problem with this ED IMO, but eh. Now, if we learned that they gimped on this ED because of the trailer, then maybe I'd understand the trailer hate; otherwise, I'd take the trailer over this any day. Furthermore, DM has its fans (a lot of them, by my estimation), and it and the original manga were the source of everything we have now, so getting riled up about either getting this much attention is weird to me. It, in a weird way, reminds me of people who don't have any interest of learning about history because they're too fixated on the present. Honestly, the credits give me hope for this arc. It's Yuya, Yuzu, and Gongenzaka. The three friends that are taking this crazy journey together. Okay, we all know I like Gongenzaka.

I highly doubt that he'll be getting what you think he'll be getting until maybe in the final stages of the Academia saga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
