Millennium World Volume 5: Tomb of Shadows

[Ryusaki]

I just got my volume from Amazon. I know many of you can read it in Shonen Jump, but it still seemed worthy of making a thread.

For all of you who don't know, Millennium World 5 catalogues the fight against Diabound at the dead village of Kul-Elna, and the summoning of the Dark God Zorc. There's also the revealed revelation that the World of Memory is it fact...the greatest Shadow Game ever, the Ultimate Shadow R.P.G!

As usual, the textual editing was quite great, putting Duelist's ****ty job to shame. There were a few of the dreaded Viz Boxes O' Doom, but it's forgiveable here because they aren't used every single bloody time *glares at Duelist* But to be fair, the Millennium World editors do have more time to do a good job.

The art in Millennium World is always excellent, and really, this just makes me cry for what happened in the anime. Manga Zorc...looks...so...cool...and...doesn't...have... a...dragon...member. Well, he does, but it's hidden by shadow.

Since in Shonen Jump now Millennium World will be cut to one chapter because of GX, maybe we can hope that extra effort will be put into these twilight chapters. We can hope.

Yeah, it's quite odd. I just got issue fifty with MW #48, and yes it was sweetness on a page!!

EDIT: By the way, just how many chapters long is this part of the Manga?

The Viz Box of Doom (R)- Now available wherever Manga textboxes are sold!

Yeah, I hope they take their time with the editing. That'll make it worth the wait. :D

[Ryusaki]

It's Duels 37 to 45, Yūgi.

All we can do is hope, Kuro. All we can do is hope...:D

That dragon looks like a *Mouth gets zipped*, the best part was the duel between little yugi and yami bakura

[Ryusaki]

Yeah, but Zorc's dragon head is at least shrouded in shadows in the manga.

For whom it may concern, the volume was once again given a minimalist 'Contains Fantasy Violence' rating (I think it gets it by default. Pfft, the other manga can shove their 'realistic violence' right up their...covers), and was even thinner than last volume (!). It's quite amusing to watch as thinner and thinner paper is used each time....

[Warakia]

There is no anime version of the Memory arc...what are you talking about? :p

[Ryusaki]

Yes...of course...you're right... *rocks back and forth in rocking chair*

218...pointy chins....Master of Dragon Knight...Zork-zilla...

[Ice wizard]

When yami, yugi and their pals (well just honda, azun and jounchi) went into the millenium puzzle discovered alot of stuff that happened during atnems life while alive and conquering Zork and Bakura that would be the memory arc.

It's Duels 37 to 45, Yūgi.



All we can do is hope, Kuro. All we can do is hope...:D

I meant 32+ as a whole, actually. :D

[Ryusaki]

I meant 32+ as a whole, actually.

Seven volumes.

[Yūgi's Black Magician]

Seven volumes.

Er...um...I hate to keep asking this, but I meant in chapters. :p

So sorry...

*Cough*

Thanks,
Yūgi's Black Magician (Now with correct spelling in his name!!)

[Ryusaki]

Seven volumes with nine chapters each. There.

[SoVi3tnut13]

well whati don't like about the manga version is that the fight with possesed seto comes at the very end after zork is destroyed which makes no sense cuz if b4 the pharoah sealed his soul away to stop zork, he wouldn't have been able to fight seto lol. that's where i think the anime fixes it a little bit.

So....Zorc's groin dragon is replaced by.....? I agree though, Millennium World's translation is better than Duelist's, but I think the reason for that is that both the original seven volumes and Millennium World were serialised in Shonen Jump over here first before being collected, while Duelist wasn't and thus there was no need for thorough editing - they could get away with a rush job with that than with a magazine.

Or...Yamazaki could just be turning the scripts...:D

Just found out that the next Millennium World won't be out till October 2007.

I'm in for a long wait.

October 2007 .... you're kidding, right?

[Ryusaki]

October 2007 .... you're kidding, right?

I only wish I was. And with no Shonen Jump in England...I can safely say that I'm well and truly buggered.

Hey, at least I get the fairly poorly-edited Duelist every two months, right? Right?

Must be because they're only printing ONE FRIGGIN' CHAPTER A MONTH!!!

I'm going to crack some skulls at this pace...
