Honestly it seems about right that an evil academy would teach all of their soldiers the exact same way to play.

I don't think I can take much more of this heavily back loaded pacing.


Least impressive zerk so far tho.

I wanna say no on virtue that they'll probably tackle Academia directly after all this and all the good people will be working on Arc V rather than mostly working on the movie.

I love Tsukikage for this, he just keeps surviving while more important and threatening characters are around him wrecking poo poo, like it's an RPG and he's several levels behind and an extra side character rather than the core party.

Reira is freaking cool, this was a pretty dynamic and fun episode. Kinda sucks that essentially 16 dudes dueled and the only woman onscreen was just laying there needing protection.

Synchro arc has been kinda dragging and some characters were sidelined to make room for Crow (:sigh:) but otherwise it has been really good.

Arc V has been really consistently entertaining even if it still doesn't quite know what to do with its large cast. Action/entertainment dueling is a neat, simple gimmick and the majority of duels are snappy and fun. I think the main thing of note about it is all the lancers are really just fun characters even if it takes a while for them to warm up. I don't think I've ever seen a series of yugioh where I haven't hated a few members of the core cast so it's pretty nice that I like more or less everyone in arc V (except Crow but I mean not liking Crow is fun in its own way :v:

Arc-V is great. It's been a bit slow recently while they try to wrap this tournament arc up, but overall it's been super solid.

Eh, I'd say it's okay. As of the end of Season 1, I'd rank it at least above the 5Ds and Zexal dubs.

Plus, everything about Gong is loving great.

Speaking of which, now that he's gone, his va now plays Dennis. Surprisingly good, much better voiced than Dipper. And he's just as camp as you'd expect.

Tsukikage is basically far and away the most competent, skilled character in the entire show until you actually need somebody who can win you a duel. Yu-Gi-Oh has never had a character like this, it's pretty great.

In his defense though, one-on-one he's actually a really goddamn good duelist, he just keeps getting stuck in this battle royale poo poo.

Great support duelist in tag-duels, though.

Gotta say, this duelist warfare poo poo is pretty cool. The series needs more of this.

This time around they seem to be avoiding having named characters getting carded with abandon. However, unlike the Championship, I wouldn't mind seeing these characters get carded. :v:(with the exceptions of Enjoy and Gallagher).

Also, here's Dennis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RONfgsRA0E

The wave of ex-policemen makes me extra happy, like yeah, a few dozen people got the exact same poo poo as 227 got, so even if you graduate card game police academy you could still get sent to the bitcoin mines and suffer worse than when you were just a commons. :allears:

He hasn't said, but probably. He's definitely voicing Yuri, though. And Yuzu is voicing Celina/Selena.

I think they missed an opportunity to have them sound exactly the same. That would be a better explanation for all the confusion instead of "their faces kind of look alike." I showed some Arc-V episodes to my 8-year-old cousins and even they didn't buy that poo poo.
