What did he mean by this?
And will Aoi die again this time?

I don't think so because that'd mean the cast would be male only for the rest of the arc and it hasn't happened in Vrains so far. (At least not for much long)

>George Gore
So that's his name. Funny how they shortened it to The Gore for the English dub.

The lost children were the most charming thing of this era. I wish they focused more on it, like trying to overcome their trauma (in the present) and settle their lives. Yusaku did quite a good job but the rest were scrapped like Takeru having overcame his trauma in a flashback just like it's nothing and Specter being happy as Revolver's side quick. Not to say the other ones are never showing up again.

>Jin is coming back
He lost his memories/trauma after getting his 1 lp stolen by Lightning. He is just a normal guy and probably also lost all the skill on duel monsters he earned from dueling to survive during the lost incident.

>What did he mean by this?
Simple, that he's weak at dueling. He's just been lucky at drawing his situational garbage outs.

Well it is about the same. No casual filler anymore though.

This is wrong though. Not that being wild and unpredictable is actually good on its own.

So how come they felt the need to write Specter out of the show?

No.

I know its not the best card ever, but I love this guy. Minor monsters need more love.

His VA is busy with other non anime work. At least, that's what one poster said. It's not like he was very important anyway.

Great to watch a lot of Eps at once.

Why did they pick such a silly name to make a plot point

Sporadically entertaining. Pretty disappointing on the whole. The duels with the MC are pretty entertaining if nothing else, even though he literally never loses

When would be a good time to release a new "AAA" kind of ygo game? Lotd feels like an incomplete game.

but that's not translation, that's using shitty made up names.

As much as I would like getting a proper Yugioh game again I don't think that's happening anytime soon. Handhelds are dead and making a proper Yugioh game for the Switch would mean to actually put effort something Nu Konami isn't interested in doing. And let's not forget Duel Links prints money like crazy so the only proper Yugioh game you'll get is updates of Legacy Of The Duelist. I still have hope though, hope that if Konami doesn't want to make a game for consoles anymore they'll at least do a new Yugioh game for mobile. Is annoying how developers have phones that are equally if not stronger than a PSVITA and still refuse to make proper games with no microtransactions. One day, one day

I'm pretty sure despite the filename that's just the US version of Tag Force 4.

All names are made up user. If you are making the game in english, use the english names it's just common sense. If you love the japanese names so much play the japanese version

I'm not familiar with the TCG, what is this referring to?

People for some reason get pissed at the concept that YGOrg's translations aren't gospel and so when the official english version comes along with a different name they flip their shit.
Non-ironically
Fur Hire > Sky-fang Brigade
Sky Striker > Sentouki/Brandish Maiden
Toadally Awesome > "Treatoad"

They should directly translate the character names.

I disagree

I don't have autism so I don't really care.

None of the English name changes ever bothered me aside for Osiris -> Slifer.
Who the hell thought it's a good idea to change the name of an Egyptian God to some random executive producer?

It's not like I have anything against translations but some can't even be considered "translation" consideration they straight up rewrite names like with Sky Striker. How hard could it be to keep consistency with the originals without having to resort to that ever asinine localization habit of either PUNS, or inconsistent rewriting of names to suit the individual criteria/taste of the """translator""". Many cards/archetypes still straight up retain Japanese names/terminology in a completely untranslated form (i.e. Mayakashi among others) so it just makes me think it's one or two goon squads going at it with the shitty localization every once in a while.

Yusaku should be Gameworker, Ai should be love, Aoi should be Blue, Emma should be Emma, Go should be Man.

That begs the question; why aren't we using the localized/dub names of the anime characters in the threads?

An Obelisk isn't a God either. It's just a big fucking dick shaped rock. Are the Egyptian God cards actual gods themselves or just like the servants of actual Gods?

this, literally this

Because people have autism and will derail the thread if we dont but I am going to call them Joey Wheeler and Chazz Princeton till I am dead.

Attached: 69574629_p32.jpg (2048x1723, 240K)

Because these threads focus on the currently airing Japanese version of VRAINS and all the subs refer to the characters by their Japanese names.
If they started with subbing George Gore instead of Go Onizuka I imagine we would be calling him George

>Osiris the Heavenly Dragon
>Slifer the Sky Dragon
They really neutered that one

People do. I'm not fond of the dub names, but I've always found it fun that different people in the same conversation switch between Joey, Jou, Jounouchi etc and it's all good because we know who it is anyway.

Vrains ain't worth watching imo. It's a huge letdown. Worst cast of ygo characters I've seen yet.

That's one way to view what I posted.
I believe that in a translation featuring characters that already have localized names in that language, they should use that localization.
The subs for VRAINS do not use that localization for the characters as they went like 60 episodes without them so it would be weird to swap them out. These threads focus on the newest Japanese episodes of VRAINS with the non-localized names in the translations.
If there was a new Tag Force game I would expect Yuzu to be translated as Zuzu. This doesn't mean I didn't call her Yuzu when ARC-V was airing because that was what the topic of the thread called her.

Kite was fucking great. I keep going back to watch clips of him Xyz summoning and get hyped as fuck each time

That’s just called inconsistency and being hypocritical. Engaging with the “””localization””” by virtue of it simply existing is just poor standards.

I don't really like YGOrg's localisations either, when they start to make shit up and pretend its gospel. For example, they renamed Zanki to Processlayers and then threw a shitfit whenever anyone called them Zanki, despite that literally being their name.

>Give fan translation of Processlayer
Pretty decent
>Bosses have the Fire kanji next to what they called "Processlayer"
>They call it Pyrocesslayer for the funny pun
>They ended up naming the archetype "rocesslayer" because of it
>They get mad when people don't use their names
They are genuinely a bunch of autists

Indeed. Had DDM really taken off Konami would definitively have kept on making them even if their profit margin hadn't been as big as that of the cardgame.

I can't even respect them for Processlayer because all that's going to happen is that people are going to end up even more confused when Konami localises them to fucking Sum Squad or something.

>Sum Squad
I'm one of the autists that loves the TCG names and I think I would genuinely build them if they were called that because of how fucking stupid it sounds

Go vs Dr. Genome.

Attached: spit.png (1920x1080, 1.64M)

They are hackers, what do you expect.

If they were going to go about it like that then they should just skip the dueling and steal data outright.

Because only DM had decent enough dub names, and they didn't change the villains ones.

Fuck Kalin, Akiza, and all the other unwarranted changes.

I like how Bakura is both his first and last name in English.

What about skye zaizen or kal colter or george gore?

They may be hacker but they still have a code of honour.

I think they call it the code of the duelist.

You'd be mad too if you were trying to commit suicide but everyone keeps failing to kill you. Then again Pandor and Revolver are the only ones that would really do that so he can't die even if he tried. Such is the curse of a dueling AI

The best YGO protagonist.

>You'd be mad too if you were trying to commit suicide but everyone keeps failing to kill you.
No, revolver was the only one who had anything resembling a suicide type of motive. We don't know what Ai wants by all accounts because they won't explain his exact motive.

Jesus christ.

No, she’ll slide one into Aois’ finger, make an honest woman out of her.

>What's the point of skipping to more than halfway into the series?
The first 100 episodes try to have a serious plot but the main character doesn't really develop in any way other than changing cards. He's just kind of a fun hero who rarely has to take anything seriously. Also a lot of the turns it takes negate any edgy stuff they happen to throw in there for the meantime.

ARC-V used to be good but it shat the bed of course

So you think that way, can't say i'm surprised that you enjoy a bohman duel of fucking everything

Arc-V is bad though.

At least he didn't make his boss monsters look like a joke the way Kagemaru did, Judai must've destroyed the Phantom Demons 3 or 4 times in their duel.

I hate Bohman as much as you but you were implying Bohman Vs Playmaker was somehow more enjoyable than Soulburner Vs Bohman which isn't the case

Boring

Marik goon who used exodia.

Exodia popping out of nowhere to BTFO Jono and then Yugi defeating Exodia were tremendously more entertaining than anything connected to Bohman's duels.

I found a pretty fun duel.

Realistically though, how can Aoi survive this, shes facing the big bad alongside her brother whose pretty much bathing in death flags. If they are tag dueling doesnt that mean she has to die with him?

asspull like miyu

Lots of plausible ways it could go down. Ai could spare her possibly for Aqua's sake, since she's close to Aqua. Or Aoi could say something like "Aqua wouldn't want you to act like this". Or maybe once he gets Akira's key he doesn't need to absorb anyone any more.

Well maybe she doesn't. Of course there are a couple of things to consider. Ai did enter through Akira's head specifically, and Akira isn't above ejecting people out of dangerous situations.

Yeah that feels like a stretch, Ai has pretty much already signed aboard the kill em all train at this point, i see no reason for him to have sympathy for aqua's partner now.

Entering through Akira's head likely means that we're watching a fake Aoi for the next two episodes and the real one is being shielded from her brother's death

I think she'll somehow survive, because of this scene transition in the OP where at first everyone is there, but then only PM, SB, BM, Revolver and hot dog man remain.

No seriously stop, for your sake. Yoshida is a hack

Isn't Maekawa writing the upcoming two-parter duel episodes though?

Is Sol Tech a product of KaibaCorp going bankrupt after Kaiba died during the end of DSOD movie?

Art's nice, but damn that animation really tries to abuse every trick it can.

Doesn't matter when the main writer is Yoshida. That's how much of a hack he is.

I don't really care if Aoi dies or lives, since if she survives she either becomes a cheerleader or jobs and """"""""dies"""""""" again anyway like all females, but the OP is the only reason why I think she'll live for now.

Is it really a patter in the OP is being telegraphed as fuck here.

What is the main moral lesson of each show?

never play dwagins

When all Ignis get human forms.

When we get to the Final Boss Duel and it's revealed that everything from Bohman's defeat onwards was planned by him.

You're not even quoting anyone. He loses in chambers and dreams.

Have frens
except Vrains for which it was
Nothing

Ai Love You Go

DM - friendship
GX - nakama and self reflection
5D's - kizuna
Zexal - faith and trust vs no faith
Arc-V - forcefully brainwash egao into everyone?
Vrains - don't play god or else you'll face the wrath of the socially isolated????

the lesson of this show is to never be like revulva

Can't deny the one for Zexal, so many possibilities where Yuma could have lost Astral completely or have their mutual trust broken.

Zexal basically put personifications of extremes up against each other. That's not all each main character was, but the show did push them pretty far in their mindsets in their showdowns. Like Yuma declaring that if it will cost him his life to save Vector (not just physically, but to save whatever tiny fragment of good might be left within him), then he's willing to face that price.

So why doesn't Pandor have just anti cyberse cards?

Attached: 1562759915461.png (1280x720, 827K)

Anti decks dont work in VRAINS.
Revolver brought an anti-playmaker deck for his duel with PM in ep ~20 or so and lost hard.

Episode 8. But he really only had one explicitly anti cyberse combo and just sort of shifted to other strategies that didn't really work either.

None of shitvulva's strategies worked, anti cyberse lost, """""extra link""""" lost, anti judgememt arrows lost, and whatever he's going to use against soulburner and Ai will lose as well

It's more like anything that isn't UNGA/OTK/link spam into multiple big bosses doesn't work in vrains, trickstars with their small chip damage fails to win, gouki spam/beatdown aren't UNGA enough so it doesn't win, rokket/topologic/borrel field control never wins, altergeist stun never wins

Has anything ended more duels than cyberse clock dragon?

It's weird because the earlier episodes and monsters are seemingly held in higher regard. Guess we won't know for sure until they poll the favorite duels after the fact.

That's because Season 1 didn't drag out its thin plot threads and duels anywhere near the level S2 took it to.

Yeah right because S1 wasnt filled with recaps and the first cour was basically just a bunch really slow link summoning animations.

I'd say a good half of it is trying and failing to find out information about hanoi without any particular success on Yusaku's part. It did compensate with backstory I guess.

The whole problem with Vrains is consistency. Yusaku and Revolver in the beginning were pretty entertaining until the first season ended and the only episodes that were worth a damn in the second season was the Go and Lightning duels.

It's a damn shame because this was the perfect time to give the main cast some much needed bonding moments and development that isn't just job, die, revive, and then repeat until the series ends.

>random God card
I know you're biased but come on. Osiris being summoned on the Battle City blimp was one of the most astounding things I'd seen. The soundtrack, the way it wraps around the blimp etc. DMG aside, the rest of the ranking makes perfect sense.

Less about consistency, more about character relationships/interaction I think. Playmaker and Revolver having personal beef and past history made their duels interesting to me, plus Revolver tends to go ham a lot in his duels.

Then S2 came along and PM fighting for Jin just felt so...distant? I get he's doing it for Kusanagi but I have zero reason to care about either Jin or Bowman. As it is now with S3, I'm genuinely looking forward to PM vs Ai.

The point is plot important duels and minor plotpoints never overstayed their welcome. e.g. all of Revolver's duels with PM moved at a reasonable pace, and even the 18-20 duel with Akira had a good enough reason for the flashback-filled 19. Nothing dragged nearly as long as Bohman's ongoing conflict. Minor plot threads would generally be done and dusted within 2-3 episodes while the overall plot drags on.

4 of those duels were off-screens just to gimp the knights because they are no longer relevant. (Spectre should have been a harder win for Ai.) Go Onizuka barely lost because he destroyed the wrong card (would have won otherwise). Pandor lost because Ai startled it at the very end by doing something unexpected. Queen lost because her deck fucking sucks.

Go should've used this card against Ai.

>Less about consistency

That's what I meant by consistency because Revolver was constantly entertainment until his redesign killed all of his chunniness completely. If everyone kept their actual personalities they started with it would've been a much better series.

>I get he's doing it for Kusanagi but I have zero reason to care about either Jin or Bowman
This proves my point that even without character interaction, something that every series needs, it shows that having a memorable personality is good enough to make a decent series since these two boring shitters offered nothing but being a waste of everyone's damn time.

Kaiba went from green haired goblin to actual sculpted Adonis and remained pretty consistent character wise, but I get what you mean. Like Chazz seems to be the exception where the rival isn't straight fujobait.

Who cares? Their personalities weren't as important as they were just a segue for yusaku to fight an AI god of sorts.

Yeah but Kaiba is the second best rival while having one of the most complex character arcs in Yugioh. Everyone else except Manjoume either regressed like shit or their characters stagnated with absolutely no development to be heard of.

If Jin could actually speak and Bowman wasn't a jobbing snoozefest who wasted months of time on fucking draws the arcs would've been at least half as good as S1. Even if the plot is shit, it isn't a waste of time in the slightest when the characters in the series that got so much screentime for some strange reason weren't glorified cardboard cutouts.

Soulburner, Blood Shepherd, Windy, Lightning, and Go weren't cardboard cutouts. Bohman also wasn't a cutout half the time.

I'm not talking about them and why are you defending that bland retard? Also the guys you listed besides Lightning either jobbed to death or forced to wait 20 fucking episodes to duel because every duel has to be two episodes long apparently.

He would have beaten soulburner if emma had not interfered.

>Revolver wasn't a boring ass jobber.
By your definition of "jobber" he probably is. He lost to the protagonist twice and lightning as well. He spent even more time constructing draws and losses than bohman did.
>I'm not talking about them and why are you defending that bland retard?
Bohman acted crazy during his second duel with Playmaker, tried to put on the god act during his duel with Blue Maiden, and was an asshole during his duel against Soulburner.
>Also the guys you listed besides Lightning either jobbed to death or forced to wait 20 fucking episodes to duel
Like revolver.

I don't even give a fuck about that at this point but Emma definitely ruined any chances of him ever being taken seriously again.

I hope you die

Fuck off

not until he dies

Since they seem to be going through all the shots of the opening quickly I want Soulburner to lose to Roboppi. Then he should either be brain controlled into fighting Revolver or sent somewhere he's hallucinating Revolver and fight him.

They could just recycle a classic anime or jrpg story while changing just enough to avoid copyright issues (plus adjusting the premise to accommodate duelists), and probably at least come out with something middling with little effort. If they don't want to bother spending mental energy on how character interactions would play out, just steal it

They already have unoriginal ideas. VRAINS isn't the first anime for the protagonist to have a super virtual buddy that fights alongside him and have friction with. VRAINS has outright homages just like the other yugioh series. So just stealing things is already something that kind of happens. The only way it could get worse is if they started outright plagiarizing by stealing characters. Plus I'm almost certain NAS and Shuiesha are too ambitious to not have something at least in part original.

Soulburner vs Revolver will be a draw.

It always seem like you get random dices each duel

You sound like that Revolver hating autist but just because he acted slightly different like he had multiple personality disorder doesn't mean that dumbshit didn't put everyone to sleep.

Shines white, and that's clearly in a very dark area. And in DM, animation and art are where they had the most problems probably.

To OTK exactly as he did against Pandor? He can reduce an opponent's damage to 0 or double the damage he inflicts.

It just makes @ignisters stupidly convenient for their janky plays. It's a defensive handtrap in battle, but also a defensive and offensive graveyard card for effect damage, it's not even consistent within itself.

So you're upset that the villain who has also been a main character all along has good cards?

>good
I don't know about that. I just think it's weird it's so multi faceted and that it could never be real.

Anyway we can asspull Aoi as the final boss?

Why would you want that? The final boss has a really good chance of dying for real. That being said, It would be possible to pull almost anyone as the final boss with the right AI enhancement.

technically if the damage inflicted becomes 0, then would revolver take 0 damage as well? since the card doesn't specifically say only you take 0 damage

You give an idea, what if Aoi gets mind controlled after losing to Ai?

The point would be to stop the draw in general not immediately turn it into a win. Maybe he'll create a card that could do that though.

If someone uses Solemn Vow when they have 1LP, do they automatically lose, or do they get 0.5LP?

If the cost can't be paid the card is destroyed. And I don't think half life points are a thing. Of course I could be wrong.

Well then Ai would be just as bad as Revolver. It would mean a rematch between Aoi and Yusaku.
