Author’s Notes: Hey, guess what? I got accepted to the Japanese university! ^_^ Eee, much happiness and celebration! I’ll be there from late August to late December. So I won’t be able to rant about the dubs, but I’ll keep watch over Seena or whoever’s going to do it.
Oh, and speaking of that, someone else FINALLY e-mailed me about that! Queen of Games is also interested. Since you all TOOK so long though, Seena still gets the main position, no contest. But Queen of Games, you can help too. And I’ll be keeping an eye on things, even if I can’t do much ranting of my own.
Oh, and I’m so sorry I haven’t updated “Millennial Inheritance” in so long! I posted a new chapter on Thursday night, if you haven’t seen it yet!

Senui: *glares* If you think Indigo owns Yu-Gi-Oh, you’re just stupid. Go away.


Rantings of a Rabid Yu-Gi-Oh Fan: 29


Toby KiKami: Oh yes, I know how stupid the dubbers are. ^_^ I’ll bet you couldn’t tell that I knew!
Yep, Tea DOES talk too much. By Ra, EVERYONE does! The three Ghouls and Rishid were supposed to have been SILENT! Even more than Silent Doll, because Mariku didn’t even talk through them!
Oh no, the theme decks can ALWAYS get more annoying. Mai’s old boyfriend has a really cool ninja deck. And then there’s Bakura’s awesome occult deck! And Rishid’s trap deck… But I like those ones! ^_^

Yami Mariko: I like the Mask duels too! There are annoying things about every episode, but they’re pretty good.
I think Mariku’s side-plot is the most interesting part. My subtitles didn’t have Yuugi saying he loved Jou, but I don’t trust them at all.
Ooh, you’ve been to Japan? What part? How long ago? Tell me about it!
Hmm, but have you ever added up the total commercial time in a dubbed Yu-Gi-Oh episode? I haven’t… But a lot of the time, they seem to have more commercials than show. Try it some time! I’ll bet there are at LEAST 10 minutes of commercials. Especially in the episodes where they did a lot of editing.

Amiasha: Eee, hi again! I very much missed your reviews!
Well, in Japan it’s called “Weekly Jump,” so I assume it comes out weekly… Plus, I see new manga summaries just about every week. ^_^
From what I can tell, WB bought Digimon. Because where I live, season 4 is showing ungodly early in the morning on the WB station. I liked the first and second seasons a lot, but then I didn’t watch the third one as regularly. And the couple episodes of the most recent season that I’ve seen, I’m just not impressed with at all. How sad!
I can’t wait until Otogi shows up again! Heh, he’ll come and flick dice at the Ghouls. ^_^ Poor Ghouls! That’s more Ghoul abuse! I think I’ll start a Ghoul help-program and shelter where they can stay without having girls and boxes fall on them, dice flung at them, or other such injuries…
Yeah, Amelda is the mean person who disguised her/himself as Pegasus. S/he has red hair. I think it’s a girl too, but apparently there’s some doubt about it!
Yeah, Clow’s kind of like Shadi too! Eee, any Shadi-ish character rules! ^_^
*laughs* With your great reviews, how could you NOT be a favorite?
Well, Mokuba’s small and younger than the rest. And he gets kidnapped a lot! I’m sure they’d be shoving Yuugi through everything if he got into those situations more often.
Oh if you don’t have an evil or psychotic laugh, you don’t have anything…
Heh, I’ve heard of Alex Mac, but I never had cable as a child…
Hey, wow! Mariku and Namu DO sound like the Kaiser and Ken… Hm, I wonder if they have the same voice actor? But the Kaiser’s voice was never quite as bad as poor Mariku’s.
Oh no, the dubbers wouldn’t allow hitchhiking! That might lead to… rides with strangers. To the Shadow Realm! ^_^ Hmm… What’s the driving age in Japan? Honda started out about 15 years old, and I’m not sure how much time passed between then and the present. I wouldn’t be surprised if he and Otogi just decided to drive illegally, though. As long as they had a vague idea of what they were doing, who cares about the laws!
Hee hee… I’m really glad that Haga and Ryuzaki will be around still! And it looks like their part will be very cool later on! ^_^
No, I haven’t read “Artemis Fowl,” but I’ll put that on my list of things to do!
No, Yami hasn’t told Seto and Mokuba that he was the Pharaoh yet. He’ll do that later, after the Malik-through-Jou duel… They’ll be going somewhere in Kaiba’s helicopter. It takes an episode or two, so you won’t be able to miss that!
There’s always something wrong with the life points. I just don’t pay much attention. I’m no good at math anyway, and it doesn’t affect the storyline. ^_^
I can’t wait to see your Shaadii and Pegasus fic! ^_^ I need to write another chapter of “Millennial Inheritance” before I leave for the summer… And I need to write another short fic for Chibizoo’s contest! Arg, so much to do!
You haven’t translated the ending song to season 1, have you? Some long Japanese name… It looks really cool, but I’d like to see exactly what it means!
They said that there was a thin layer of Shadow Realm under the glass… So I don’t see how they can explain the one Ghoul falling through it and being okay! Heh, that’s right… Most of the Ghouls seem to have access to the Shadow Realm somehow. ^_^ Now if that were really the case, Mariku would have to monitor things more closely! They’re very fair about it, though… Even if it would be smarter to only rig Yami Yuugi’s side of the arena with “Shadow-things,” they set up their own sides too. Heh heh, poor inept Ghouls… ^_^
I avoid reality TV like the plague… My dad watches it religiously, though. *shrugs* I think it’s dumb, but whatever.
I haven’t seen either “Titan A.E.” or “Treasure Planet,” but I need to see both!
I’ve seen “Kiki’s Delivery Service” and “Princess Mononoke,” though! Very good movies. I need to see “Spirited Away” soon too. Have you seen “My Neighbor Totoro”? It’s kind of geared towards a younger audience, but it’s really good! And very well-drawn, too.
Now I think even in their spirit forms, the yamis have to breathe and such. I don’t think they’d have to eat without physical bodies though.

Fire Pendant: Bwahaha, you’ll see all of that!
Arg, I know! I’ve started on my next chapter, but I hit a writer’s block. I have vague plans to write about Ankhkare and Senui’s pasts, too. It’ll have to be two separate stories though, because they only interacted a couple of times. There’s a lot I’d like to write about them! Each of them has a few interesting incidents in the past. ^_^

Crossover Authoress: Aw… Little Yuugi stealing souls! How cute!
Hmm… If you go to “Sanctuary: A Ryou Bakura Shrine,” there are a few clips of Ryou’s Japanese voice there. And Bakura too. And others too!
I really don’t like Kaiba’s new white coat much… The purple one is my favorite by far!
Wow, you sound like you’re way ahead of us now! What episode are you on over there? We just saw the last episode of the Mask duel today.
Oh Mariku hasn’t lost complete control over Anzu OR Jounouchi yet… They controls themselves again, but Mariku’s still there in the back of their minds.
I know, Kuriboh’s so cute! It really has a lot of personality!
Ack, poor Red-Eyes Black Dragon! I felt really bad for it during that battle…

Neiko: Well Yuugi completely rebuilt his deck for Battle City since it has new rules. Besides, his grandpa owns a game shop. I’d be very surprised if he couldn’t get pretty much whatever cards he wanted.

Yami Nikki: Arg, how horrible! I hate missing a new episode…

Anime*2000: Ah, that’s okay. I’m glad you at least THOUGHT about it, though!
Seto’s just very possessive, especially when it comes to power, victory, and Mokuba. I admire his independence, but I think he takes it a bit too far.
Otogi will appear soon, don’t worry…
Dark Magician won’t be used again for a while…
Serenity ALMOST sounds flirty sometimes. But I think either she doesn’t realize how much Tristan likes her, or she knows but is trying to gently hint that she doesn’t feel that strongly about him.

Trupana: Yep, Seto can be good with his subtle hints! I don’t trust my subtitles, but those dub lines sound pretty good. Oh yes, that move gave me a good idea for if I ever get around to dueling. ^_^

Kinaka Capri: Heh, I think Yuugi needs to go psycho. That would be interesting.
I don’t know, but Mai gets possessed a lot… Not as much as Mokuba gets kidnapped, though! ^_^ I like Mai a lot. She rules.
Oh I wish somebody would heal Pegasus’s eye in the anime! I couldn’t leave him in pain like that in my story, because I like him. ^_^
Oh I hope Mariku and Isis and them come back! And if Shadi doesn’t show up again later, I’ll be mad.
Don’t worry, you won’t be completely without my rants! Seena will do them, and I’ll help when I can, and I think Queen of Games will too. Be nice to them!

Ayrrie: Yeah, you pronounce the U in “Namu.” It’s a little softer in Japanese, though.
If they could pull it off, Yami would have less than 100 life points every time he won a duel. Just to be dramatic.

- Have you noticed that Yami Yuugi and Kaiba’s coats are the ones that flare out stiffly the most often? Yami Bakura’s does too occasionally, but not as much as those two. I think it’s a measure of egos. Ooh, whose coat can flare more? That’s the real way to decide who’s better!

- Heh, whenever I see Shadi about to fall to his doom in Yami’s Soul Room, I imagine him saying “If I fall now, my Pokemon journey’s over!” Ah, the warped mind of a former Pokemon fan… ^_^

- I wonder who Mai and Isis dueled to get all their cards… I would have liked to see a bit of that! I have yet to see Isis duel at all, but I know that she’s very good. And we all know that Mai’s good!

- In the Japanese version, that little kid who ran into Shizuka’s room was afraid to go home from the hospital, not afraid to get an X-ray.

- Yuugi’s grandpa is scary-looking. Have you noticed? *shivers*

- Wasn’t Shadi COOL in the June Shonen Jump!?

- Rrg, that fat museum guy was such a loser! How sneaky…

- Heh, interesting that Anzu thought the “weighing of the Heart” drawing was “pretty.” Some might call it frightening. Like that museum guy! ^_^

- So just because Shadi has dark skin, robes, and a turban, he has to be an Egyptian? I mean, he IS, but how does Yuugi know that?

- I wonder… Does Shadi cry the ancient Pharaoh’s tears because he’s the guardian of the Items? Or could anyone who understands do it?

- Ooh, Shadi has cool boots. You can see them when he goes into the evil museum guy’s office. ^_^

- Hmm, and the feather of Ma’at doesn’t seem to be tucked into his turban. It’s just sitting there. How does it stay there? Velcro, maybe? ^_^

- Shadi and the museum guy make Anubis sound evil, but he really isn’t. He wasn’t even really feared that much, at least no more than any other god. He was known as the “friend of the dead.”

- Heh, and how do you think YOU would do against Shadi’s questions and the Scales of Truth?

- Wow, look at Ammit! That’s one cool, scary creature!

- After guarding the Pharaoh’s memories and the Items for 3000 years, it must be strange for Shadi and the Ishtars to see the Pharaoh get so close to being back in power… Does that put them out of their jobs?

- Heh, poor Shadi. He can’t just get the information he wants, he has to play a Shadow Game for it, and almost get stuck in Yuugi’s mind!

- Shadi’s kind of creepy in the manga… Always saying “Heh heh”… That just makes him cooler, though!

- Funny how Yuugi thinks Shadi’s crazy for telling him there’s another one of him. ^_^

- Yay, and Shadi will be back soon! Much happiness and rejoicing!

- Oh if only Light Mask had the sense to attack Yuugi instead of Seto’s dragon…

- Heh, Kaiba’s so mean… But his plan of pitting the Ghouls against each other was good.

- It would have been funny if Yuugi didn’t have a plan after Kaiba’s Blue Eyes was destroyed. ^_^ I think Seto would have to kill him if that were the case.

- I thought a fusion monster wasn’t allowed to attack on the turn it was created…

- Oh NO! Not a trip to the dreaded SHADOW REALM! AAAAAAHH!! Anything but that! ^_^

- Those are some ugly masks they’ve got there…

- Ooh, Seto’s voice is getting softer.

- Ah, impressive chanting as Obelisk is summoned! Can’t wait to hear Ra’s. ^_^

- Ow… Poor Dark Mask got smashed!

- Rare Hunters fall victim to their own traps an awful lot, have you noticed?

- Oh so now Obelisk is “our” Egyptian God Card? I don’t think Kaiba would agree. ^_^

- Eep, Light Mask looks creepy when Mariku possesses him!

- Yay, coming episodes will be fun! Much mind-controlling! ^_^

- Let’s see how they handle next week’s life or death situation!

- First all Seto cares about is Mokuba, then he's very worried about Battle City rules... ^_^

- ...No, the helicoptor has the "KC" logo on it, but it's not Kaiba's. It must be Shizuka's. Yes, I'm sure that's it.

- Oh no, Kaiba owes TEA! How wretchedly shameful!

- You can TELL that there aren't cheeseburgers and burritos in any of the lunch boxed Honda brought Shizuka on the train...

- Ha, Jounouchi's duel disk WOULD put out a weak signal.
