Thoughts and Observations of Yu-Gi-Oh! Manga Series Masterpost Updated Ver.2

Since there is many posts of my analysis over the course of 5 years and 5 months, I think is around hundreds... I'm starting the process of organization, re-arrangement, reformulation of most posts...

As I re-upload images to the currently image host I'm using in the missing Battle City Arc posts, DDM, then will be Duelist Kingdom and lastly the early which more episodic arcs, as I do this, I will keep post links, including updated ones, but only in this post, you will be able to tell when is new updates...The orders of the links of the posts will start from Memory World Arc and upwards, the new ones will always be above the previous posted links.

You might wonder why I'm troubling myself with this, it's because before I go into analysis of Transcend Game One Shot and Dark Side of Dimensions movie, I want my analysis of the manga to be polished first since my manga analysis posts will be constantly mentioned, specially the movie (so yeah, the Transcend Game and the movie Dark Side of Dimension is literally the expansion of the manga).

Thoughts&Observations | Mangá Vol.34 Part 3/3 (Memories Being Tampered)

We have reached the last part of this volume 3 of Memory World (Millenium World), we're getting closer to the end of this series, by the end of this month, it is very likely that I will start volume 4, however is divided in 4 parts, If I keep up the pace I have been making, I might finish it by the end of July or early August (I hope is the case because it would be preferable this way).
Battle City whole arc (except the prologue) and Memory World's image panels ensembles addresses has been updated.

Plot Summary:

Dark Yugi is very surprised seeing the gang (I refer to them as such, because it's easier), Yugi being pharaoh's host, he gives a bit of boost in Dark Yugi's Ba gauge to be capable of summoning Sun Dragon Ra and successfully defeats thief Bakura, Dark Yugi turns to his friends asking why and how did they get to where he is, their friends informs him about their mission...(the reason why they are in the world of memory).

With the success of thief Bakura defeat, something is starting to awaken inside the world of memory and priest Akhenaden...the darkness of priest Akhenaden starts to emerge in priest Akhenaden psyche, later revealed that is acquainted with Yami Bakura...then is revealed that Dark Yugi's memories have been tampered by Dark Yugi's friends and made an alteration of the true events in the past and the dark Akhenaden tells that he is about to take care of it...and he does by making the time world of memory going backwards...from which point we don't know...

Key Points:

He is very surprised that they're in the world of memory...

This scene might be a bit confusing at first to explain to yourself and understand because of their lines, to see where it connects in their words, let's start with what Yugi says to Dark Yugi first:

"Half of your soul is still with me...!!"

It's a very strange and confusing affirmation at first, because how can someone's soul half be within someone, with Dark Yugi next thought, best way to start to explain this is the world of memory being a dimension inside the millenium puzzle, both sharing a body and mind through the millenium puzzle, because of their very close and special bond between spirit and host, plus if notice as Yugi said this and give his boost, the millenium puzzle of Dark Yugi as pharaoh started to shine...then Dark Yugi thinks:

"I can feel it...the presence of my partner...the other soul within me!!"

That's a way of phrasing meaning just as Yugi, within Dark Yugi/pharaoh soul there is the other half of Yugi's soul, due to their strong bond, as for the presence, why they didn't felt it before Yugi entered and started to enter the world of memory, the before was because it was impossible for them to sense each other since they were in different dimensions, Yugi in the physical world then inside the maze of the millenium puzzle, when Yugi entered, there was a long distance gap between where they were in the city and the palace and Dark Yugi was always inside the world of memory in the palace, only time he sensed, it was only a little when Yugi and the gang were at the entrance of the palace but not concrete enough to be sure, now here in this moment, they feel it much more easily each others presences, because they were usually side by side, in a way is the reverse, before it was Dark Yugi was the ghost and Yugi being the host, in this situation, their roles seem to have switched (but didn't really).

Problems you might have run into...

It's related to the panels ensembles...the ones from tinypic I know for quite some time (but I intended to do this by August when I have to reorganise from the early volumes to dungeon dice monsters), what I'm talking about is from the whole Battle City to the first 2 volumes of Memory World, there is problem in reading the images, because their addresses were changed in the image host website I uploaded, so I have to update one full story arc and the first two volume of story arc I'm in now, fortunately is just images, if was the text included, I would be crying...but is still going to be quite a pain.

the reasons why it happened, I don't blame the website, from what I can tell is related to political and judicial problems that we have been facing lately about the internet in recent years.

Blog news and suggestions

Blog News:

I am almost finished re-reading for the second time (I said first I would re-read twice), going to re-read the ceremonial duel in a while (in one hour and half or two), then I put bookmarks on the pages I considered most important, scan them, edit them from pages to panels I consider important, I do edit on Photoshop (I use this software a lot not just for this, wallpapers, avatars, etc).
Usually this process takes 1 day and while writing the draft takes longer, but this time will be a little different, since I want to do it justice, the process explained above will be the longer this time, because the format for this arc will be each volume will be divided in 2 or 3 or 4 parts/posts, depending on the intensity and information, it will still have plot summary+key points.

Suggestions about the manga series:

I found something that might be helpful to those who may not have enough money, in case thinking that collecting 38 volumes would take long or don't have enough space for it, I'm sure many of you know about 3 in 1 volumes editions for Yu-Gi-Oh! (it's basically 3 volumes of a manga series in one book), but there is usually the problem about the shipping costs when buying online, so what if I told you I know a online bookstore that sells worldwide with no shipping costs and is usually cheap?

If you're from Europe and the european country currency is → € , then you're in for a treat, each of the 3 in 1 costs around 10-14€ (to give you a scale, but in the website if you use a different currency, you can change without paying) , so far there is 11 volumes of these "3 in 1", volume 12 will come out next month, 7th November 2017, the last one being volume 13 will be out in 10th February 2018.

Book Depository: Yu-Gi-Oh! 3-in-1 Editions

The only one downside from this online bookstore is that sometimes takes a bit of time, the maximum 1 month for the delivery to arrive (I think it happens in special occasions like the holidays and stuff), the fastest has been 1 week and 1 day for me at least, lately it has been 1 week and 2 weeks (the most common time it takes to arrive).

If you intend to buy it from this online bookstore, I have some advices to give you:
- to properly count when it arrives, don't include the business days, you have to pay attention to two emails, "the order confirmation" and "your order is on it's way", is the last one you have to count to 1 week or two onward (do not include weekends since there is countries where mails doesn't come on Saturdays);

- sometimes you pay VAT, but max is 2€ and minimum is less than 1€, but since they give you the price with the VAT before even buying, so do not worry and free shipping...;

-In each envelope they always offer you a bookmark from the website.

The Release Date of Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions DVD&Blu-Ray was announced!

I'm a tiny bit late because the news was announced in 24th October in the japanese official website of Yu-Gi-Oh! 20th Anniversary...(the only website in english that was updated on this news is wikipedia, not the fandom wikia)...
The Blu-Ray and DVD of Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimension will be released in Japan on 8th March 2017

click this this link for further details if you can read japanese...

There is more details around here if you go after the link, I can't read Japanese so I used the google translate but I got the general idea, it seems is given exclusives if you pre-order for a limited time in certain stores, for example in Amazon of Japan you seem to get one or 3 B2 poster sizes of the characters or one of them (Kaiba, Yugi and Aigami) , one has a T-shirt, but there is a standard in all stores for the pre-order, Transcend Game one-shots (however I'm confused if is a digital version or printed version, but I think it is a digital version).

I'm posting this because it seems many people doesn't seem know...

I have some bad news

Remember 2 posts prior I said I would scan the digital version as I buy it?
Well, I won't be able to because being european, doesn't allow me to access it, also the credit card I use is VISA Electron, I tried Kindle version but is US only, even if I wanted the UK ones (which has the first 7 volumes), it is still UK only. Through paypal it comes to a similar problem with the VISA Electron.
I think this is very unfair to be honest, I was about to buy it.
I won't be able to scan it anymore ( as I've said before I don't want to scan my printed versions copies, and damages a little bit and bit loose, 4 pages of Volume 8 is loose and was ironically Pegasus's death scene), unless it's specific pages to approach certain scenes, but I will still keep writing my interpretations and observations of the manga series.

However I can give you a nice download source:
http://ygomangadatabase.dreamwidth.org/

This is someone who collected over the years, so there is some nice quality and low quality, but still readable.
for anyone in US and CA, you can buy it, in Nook, the digital version is cheaper than amazon by the way, and there is NOOK for PC and tablet, if you do, it would be nice of you to scan it.

for anyone who have read the manga through the source I gave you, but want to reread again, buy the printed version or digital version...
I think is such a shame such a good manga not having better quality in scans, I wish I could continue scanning the printed version, but I can't, I have all 38 volumes, I was able to buy them at a one-of-lifetime chances from 1 month of internship money in a course I was in, I don't get this chances often, best 255€ I ever spent ( I received 670€ btw), so I want them to endure and alot...
digital versions you don't have to worry about damaging the pages or anything, if I could buy it, I would buy it as well.
So I'm sorry I can help you, but the scans in YGO Media will remain though...

next post will be the continuation of thoughts and observations...

Yu-Gi-Oh's Mangá observations and thoughts in future

I won't continue Zexal for quite long time, since not all episode to the most recent isn't translated subbed, so I will wait (not even the whole season 1 is translated).
so what I will be doing is re-reading Yu-Gi-Oh mangá, the original story and art by Kazuki Takahashi (Yu-Gi-Oh author) for a third time.
I have all the 38 volumes:

My YGO Manga Completed by ~worldstraveller on deviantART

as you can see, so to get my point, I will share some files so you follow my thoughts on it...
since the first chapters (1-64) are the ones with good-average quality, so you can read what's there, I made some research on the rest of the chapters, most pages you hardly can read what's there(some badly translated from what I heard)...so I will give my own scans in cbr files (it's more practical) in the future, everytime I make some volumes analysis, by arcs(where the stories has more than 1 chapter) and the small stories and seasons (Duelist= Duelist Kingdom(divided in 2 arcs, Duelist Kingdom Island and Duelist Kingdom Castle) and Battle City(with 3 arcs, Battle City, Airship Battle City and the Alcatraz Tower), Millenium World divided in 3 arcs, for me, Millenium Priests and the Pharaoh, Pharaoh's True Name Quest and Ceremonial Duel).

New Design and New Title

Hello did you liked the new design and banner? =D
the title now is Yu-Gi-Oh! Bonds Beyond Time, is not about the movie, but inspired me the changes I decided for the blog.
I will watch the movie though, once I watched fully GX Subbed.

I will create soon a page Zexal because of D-Gazer, AR vision and Exceed Monsters just like I did with 5D's and add the story in "About Yu-Gi-Oh" of Zexal Story

I'm catching up with Zexal finally xDD almost there :D

so as a way to celebrate the changes I will make 4 or 5 wallpapers of YGO or even more xD

NOTE
the address is the only thing that won't change, because of a follower here, so it won't lose track of the site =)
