YU GI OH 5D'S NEWS - JAN TO MAR 2008

Wednesday - April 2, 2008
Announced by Janime

It's finally time for a new journey. Yu Gi Oh 5D'S was first broadcasted in Japan today. Many of you should be able to see them already through various media providers. If not, you can check out in our forum. People have already posted several stuffs of episode 1 and new OP/END there. As I am updating card listing and episode summary, I think that I should announce something regarding this series first.

If you are very new to Yu Gi Oh 5D'S and don't have any idea about the new rule called Master Rule, I strongly recommend you read our quick guide at [Card Information] page. You don't have to understand everything because you should have better idea through the story. However, many duel languages have been changed, and we are going to apply these new terms in all of our coming episode summaries. We will use the same words that characters say in anime, and you may get confused by what we are talking about (ie. Release = Sacrifice). Please make sure that you understand these terms before reading our summaries. I don't want to waste time replying your messages to clarify these terms ne~.

We are working very hard to update many things on the site. Don't be surprised if you don't see much announcement. Go and check through our page by yourself. I just want to save time for updating the card listing and episode summary as much as I can.

[Yu Gi Oh 5D's Starter Deck]

The first official 5D's card/anime ad has already been released this week. It promotes a new pack going to be released on 3/15/2008. This isn't new news, and you can obtain information about this new pack in our forum, [Janime's Yu GI Oh 5D's Forum]. People has already talked over there for months. In case you want to see the official ad with an intro of a new song, ShriekV has already provided it on Youtube. Refer to [Yu Gi Oh 5D's Ad].

I am glad that we have some card information about this new series before animation is broadcasted. It's different from when I had to update GX card lists in 2004 when GX anime was first broadcasted on TV. This really saves my time not to update everything when 5D's anime comes. Some of Yusei's cards have already been confirmed, so I have split out his cards and created his new list. Refer to [Yusei's Character Deck List]. Please remind that the list can be changed later when 5D's anime is broadcasted in April.

CD Japan has already released 5D's CDs for pre-order. If you want to make a pre-order, they are ready now.

Opening Song Title: Kizuna
Artist: Kra
Code: KICM-1234
Release: 05/14/2008
Price: $11.55
CD Japan's Pre-Order: Regular Edition (Only CD)
CD Japan's Pre-Order: Limited Edition (CD+DVD)

If you want a limited edition for the new opening theme, I recommend you make a pre order before it is sold out. I realize that there are other providers on the internet, but I would recommend you buy from CD Japan web site, which is the most reliable web site. The products are shipped directly from Japan. They are original and fast released. CD Japan web site has existed for a long time even longer than our web site age ne~ ^___^.

CD Japan hasn't released a pre order for the ending song, [START], vocalized by Nakagauchi Masataka yet. This CD will be released in June, so we should wait a bit. I will announce again if there is any reliable place released this CD for pre-order ne~

Welcome to our new site for Yu Gi Oh 5D's. As this is a new Yu Gi Oh anime series, we open a new project for this series that may last for a couple years. As this is just our first start, any information may not be complete yet. We try to keep updating as much as we can as we have got a ton of information to update for this new series. I will try to gather all of your comments and improve our new project especially on card page as much as I can.

In the latest V-Jump, there is a ton of articles about this new anime series. See the scans in our [V-Jump scan pages]. If you want some exact translation from the articles, please visit Horoko's translation at [Shinhoroko Livejournal].

I have already summarized basic information about this series around our site. See our [Introduction] page for details about this series.
