I've been watching the GX Dub for the third time now and was wondering if Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's was worth watching. What puts me off is the whole Motorcycle thing lol.

[Black★Star]

Yeah.... idk about you but i happen to like 5ds more then GX.... 5ds seams more dark, it has devils and evil gods and stuffz...

[Dranzer]

Yes.Untill you get to the emo Kiryu part.Then you should give up.

You mean the crash town part?

Kiryu was 'emo' for a reason. No worse than Judai's emo moment during Season 3 of GX.

Like every series of YGO 5Ds has its share of fillers, most notably during season 3, although its fillers are used more constructively like character development on for example JACK's behalf. The D-Wheel's don't take up all the dueling there's a fair share of ground duels, so don't feel put out that most of the first 5 episodes or so are mainly Riding Duels.

I heavily recommend that if you decide to watch it, that you stick to the sub/raw and not the dub. The dubbers usually heavily ruin YGO, even GX which was more child friendly than any of the other YGO series. 5Ds contains alot of moments (like GX Season 3), that will just be slaughtered for the sake of the audience that 4Kids aim it at.

How was Judai emo.The Supreme King personality was more of a dictator type.

You know the OMG Johan is missing ordeal, (131+) to the point he ignores EVERYONE else, we all know how that ended. But alas that is not on topic.

Yin handled your question perfectly.

shadow duel with the Earthbound Immortals makes it worthwhile.

[DARKPLANT RISING]

The second arc (Dark Signers) was the best anime I've ever seen. Some parts will be confusing without watching the first arc, frankly, so I recommend you watch arcs 1 and 2. 3, is horrible.

Watch the undubbed versions. In the undubbed, a lot of people die, which is great in anime!

Get out...it was a life or death duel.

[Azuh]

The whole Dark Signers arc is probably one of the best arcs in all of YGO

Killer plot twists aswell. Massive mindf*** at the end

Back off! It was worth it, you wuss!

[Max Darkness]

The first season is good (up to ep. 67), as long as you watch the subs (they're easy to find); but the second season is terrible. The first season also wraps itself up quite nicely at the end.

[Aesirson]

You get used to the D-Wheels after the first or so episodes, and then you won't think about that it's actually card games on motorcycles. Altough Arc 2 (Dark Signers) was the best, I think Season three is really good

[SushiTheLegend]

Plus busty beauties like Carly, Aki, Misty, etc are worth it.

[Suigintou]

Me a wuss what spam? Typical Sushi, Carly tends to dress down bless her, bar her Dark Signer eps.

I think like quite a few of the male fans, you'll like Aki, but she may get annoying after a while. Do make sure never to watch the dub, they ruined everything as usual.

[SushiTheLegend]

Carly is beautiful even without being a DS, but only without the glasses.

3/4 of all duals in the series are of Life or Death.
