Since there's a new YGO movie releasing next month here in the west, I thought it would be cool to dump the original manga which the movie is based off of. For those of you who only ever watched the anime, I highly recommend reading the manga as it's much darker and better written than the anime was imo. There's also none of the fillers you have to deal with. Since the movie is releasing on Jan 27, 2017, I will dump one volume a day leading up to its release.
Today we will continue Duelist Kingdom in Volume 14.
Chapter 115
>>151717074
why a chicken? happy new year op
>>151717280
I think it's supposed to be a Rooster, since it's the year of the rooster in chinese zodiac.
Chapter 116
I think the 2 semifinals game are my favourite frim this arc, because they contain the least amount of bullshit
Chapter 117
>>151717816
oh , Mai this isn't even the worst situation he was in in last 2 days: Kaiba duel was way worse
>>151717886
HOW DOES THIS EVEN WORKS?
>>151717973
oh wait I'm stupid, turtle was an effect moster
>>151717074
I get not one, but TWO artists drawing New Year stuff? This is the best new year so far.
Chapter 118
>>151718252
and so Ritual cards were born
>>151718252
Chaos Soldier was super hype. I'm glad the new Ritual in the movie keeps the tradition of KAOSU
The first ever Ritual Monster
Chapter 119
>>151718174
>Not bringing back catapult turtle and just winning.
As expected of Mai
Have to step out again, should be back within an hour or so. Keep the thread alive please.
That movie was a failure in japan kek
>>151717268
>"You're thinking about someone else while you're dueling me?"
Your bondage queen is displeased, Yugi.
>>151718981
>That movie was a failure in japan kek
>Still airing nine months after it premiered
???
>>151717950
But that was on Yugi's side of the field! That makes no sense!
>>151719384
The owner takes the damage. In fact, most cards seem to base their effects on the owner, not the controller.
>>151718100
>"Don't let those sleazy harpies have their way with you."
kek
Is the new movie about the original Yugi? Any main villain from the manga series there? I mean that evil white hair boy senpai.
>>151718866
If she did that, the only monster she could launch is Harpy Lady Sisters, which would take the rest of her life points along with Yugi's.
>>151719571
Yes and yes.
>>151718252
>it's a 'Yugi has a card that was never mentioned before' episode
Where does he get all of these cards? Did he do some trading off-screen on the boat and just never use them before now?
>>151719669
I presume it's because his grampa owns a gameshop & thus he gets easy access to rares.
>>151718366
I love how everyone shits on Yugi for playing Kuriboh.
>>151719707
Maybe he should drop all the silver wolfs and beaver warriors out of his deck then
>>151718590
>Harpie Ladies looking at Mai
I wonder if there was a version of Mai in Egypt.
>>151717119
>that title
you guys have ruined me
>>151719571
Yes it is about the original series. I have no idea who are you talking about in the second part. Malik? He is blonde retard.
>>151720147
So Mai is a trap? I never realized that when reading the manga
>>151717280
2017 is the year of the rooster
Alright let's continue
>>151718972
Waiting for some machine slots action.
>>151720976
>goes to the finals without dueling
>jobs to Yugi
I don't think Keith thought this out very well.
>>151721014
Yeah but even if he jobs to Yugi she still gets the cashola. Although Keith wasn't to go after PEgasus for beating him previously but he has the wrong card.
>>151721120
>"That kid who basically beat me in a duel before ran away because he knows he couldn't beat me in a duel."
These mental gymnastics.
>>151721218
Mai is so cool.
>>151721352
Why is Jounouchi so great?
Chapter 120
>>151721523
Holy shit that's graphic. IS duelist kingdom not located in Japan?
>>151721579
Yeah I don't believe it's located in Japan. They had to take a ship to get to some island to participate.
>>151721579
It's in American. The site they're dueling on apparently used to be a US military burial ground even.
>>151721571
>Anti-magic armor
Which one is crazier between yami Malik and yami Bakura?
Chapter 121
>>151721982
Wait, how'd he put Axe Raider back in defense mode? I thought Keith's anti-defense card was a continuing effect?
>>151721862
Malik is insane, Bakura is just evil.
Do you think adult Yugi eventually gets it on with Anzu or does he cuck Jounouchi with the bondage queen?
>>151722018
I think it only affects cards that are played from your hand to the field. Since it was already on the field and it was switched position, he can switch it back. I think..
>>151722080
Nah he fucks the blond loli.
Anzu goes on to be a whore in America.
>>151722018
Taken literally, the card says if you play a monster in defense mode all your monsters switch to atk. However, if you already have a monster on the field then you can switch its position.
>>151722125
That or Jou just BS rules like everyone else.
>>151722218
>Kid you ever risked your life before?
Dude has no idea
>>151722098
>loses a card game
>turns to drugs
>attempts suicide
Shit, Keith, get your life together, man.
>>151722138
Blond loli is sadly non-canon.
Chapter 122
This duel between Jou and Keith is also one of the best
>>151722218
>Joey is ready and willing to murder his opponent, unlike bitch-ass Yugi
>>151722358
Barrel Dragon got nerfed irl.
>>151722457
>"Did you just play two cards in one turn?!"
>>151722626
Time Wizard was treated like a Magic Card back then.
>>151722668
>No fucking fantasy dragon is a match for my dragon that's made of guns!
A true patriot.
>>151722668
>No @#$&#% fantasy dragon is a match for my dragon that's made of guns
SUGOI
>>151722668
>dragon made of guns
'Murica.
>>151722666
I think Time Wizard is always treated as a Spell card in the manga. It's only in the actual card game Konami made it into a Monster card.
>>151722721
>You wanna surrender?
>Well, fuck you, kid; I'll kill you when I'm good and ready!
Jeez
>>151722850
>literally plays a Decepticon
>>151722850
>space megatron
Does he have space optimus, too?
Chapter 123
>>151722951
I love this. I have Red Eyes, Metalmorph, and Black Metal Dragon, and it's one of my favorite combos
>>151723115
One of the few bits that made more sense in the anime. Pulling those cards would be pretty easy if your opponents 20 feet away from you.
And that ends Volume 14! Tomorrow we will finish the Duelist Kingdom arc in Volume 15!
>>151723412
>Bandit Keith isn't even good at being a bandit
Man, he sucks at everything.
>>151723477
thanks man also
>>151723477
BTFO
>>151717268
Talk like that gets you a penalty game, young lady.
>>151723477
Yugi and Jounouchi don't duel in the manga, right? So next volume is just Yugi vs. Pegasus?
>>151723803
Mai gets absolutely wet at Yugi skills.
>>151723820
Yes
>>151717392
>Electro Whip
>Powers up electric monsters
>Using it on a monster that has never shown any affiliation with electricity in previous duels
>>151718296
>>151718380
I feel like ritual monsters never really got as much love as fusion monsters, which sucks because it's way easier to pull Sonic Bird or Manju than it is to pull polymerization and the exact monsters you need.
>>151719709
It's actually pretty useful in the real card game.
>>151718981
It was still more successful than Arc-V kek
>>151721218
That last panel was mistranslated, it should be:
>This handkerchief...
>This handkerchief is already damp...
The translator took some liberties with a few other lines, but that one's important for Mai's characterization.
>>151723820
>>151723858
Why don't they duel?
>>151718981
>made over 1 billion yen
>only 137 screens
>got 4dx screenings due to popular demand
>failure
>>151721862
Yami Bakura is litterally a part of the personification of darkness/evil, but he's not really "crazy".
>>151722258
That card is the shit.
>>151723016
Black Metal dragon loses the attack point boost of metalmorph though, so I'd say it's probably better to just keep the base red eyes with the trap active.
>>151723875
Wiki says that Viz has inconsistencies
>>151725114
Yugi says that their goal was Pegasus since the start, Jounouchi agrees that only Yugi has a chance in hell to beat Pegasus, so he forfeits and gives Yugi that "Honor of the King" card or something, which gives its holder the chance to duel Pegasus
>>151723016
Black Metal Dragon should have had the extra effect of it protecting the monster it is equipped when it gest destroyed, but myabe that should have been too broken
then again, the red eyes archtype got fucked with gemini shit for no fucking reason at all
>>151725855
Well that seems kind of like it runs counter to their character development throughout this arc.
>>151725842
Inconsistencies or full on plot holes?
>>151726331
It's an inconsistency. The Japanese version just says any monster gets 300. Viz says it has to be a Thunder-type to get the 300 bonus. On some of the cards they put the TCG effect and on some they don't so it's inconsistent.
>>151724977
That's actually really important.
>>151726400
Well, it's still DK, so it still flies.
>>151725855
But Yugi already has that card, Honor of the King's Left. Do you mean he got Honor of the King's Right, in order to get the prize as well?
>>151727351
yes, he needs to present both to face Pegasus
>>151726296
Yugi said it wasn't a good idea to show any more of their weaknesses in front of Pegasus.
>>151718055
BAMBOOZLED
>>151718132
Is eyeshadow really based on pheromones or is this manga only effects?
