7 DS. Roman Goodwin was originally one of the signers, so he must have had a signer dragon himself. Since he never used any he might have given it to someone else, like his brother. If that's the case, then it's probably sun dragon inti, the counterpart to his dark synchro moon dragon quilla.
I think the theory is that, after the fight with the lower Earthbounds, Lifestream was gravely injured and put into the armor to protect it. In response to losing a servant, Crimson promoted a new dragon to serve it.
@@maciekx10 The English translation should be taken with a grain of salt. Goodwin erroneously stated that he was the 5th Signer before he hijacked the sign in the Japanese version (instead stating that the 5th was missing).
@@Inhaledcorn in the Japanese Godwin implies that he might be the final Signer a lot. Although he never states it like in the dub (Dub Godwin seemed more like he was fine with lying for his goals while JP Godwin acted more as “I never said this was the case, you just assumed it was the case.”) Although it’s an interesting theory... and one I kinda assumed myself
@@StarKnightAziren if anything, they could have give crow the "sixth ranger" treatment of power rangers of "evil guy appears suign an upgraded version of main characters powers, gets defeated, evil gets exorcized by NAKAMA powah, and joins team later". if they really wanted to keep crow. if fact that would be even better. give respect leo much earlier and crow gets to have his own redemption arc Prince Zuko/Beelzemon/Loki/Tommy Oliver-Style
Almost a year after this video was made and posted. Our favorite Plant/Dragon player Aki has recently received some new support for her style of play. But more promptly, she finally received a powered up version of her signature monster. Named Blood Rose Dragon after her D-Wheel, Bloody Kiss. This generic level 10 Synchro monster has 3200 ATK and 2400 DEF. With the effect of banishing ALL cards in the GYs, including yours, and an additional effect of blowing up every other card the field if you used Black Rose Dragon as material. A fitting power up for Black Rose Dragon. But more fittingly is Blood Rose last effect where, if a card or effect is activated that would destroy a card, then Blood Rose can tribute itself to negate and destroy the effect while Special Summoning the original Black Rose Dragon. Sadly, it is not treated as being Synchro summoned meaning you can’t blow up the field with it. Even still, I think it’s fitting that Aki powered up ace monster would take heavy inspiration from Yusei’s Stardust Dragon and it’s evolution line. Especially Shooting Star in terms of being a level 10 with +800 stats from the original.
I consider crow the extra signer since lifestream was already shown and lifestream is required to merge the signer dragons into quasar. If you need a in cannon reason to hand wave crow becoming a signer before Leo you could say Leo wasn’t ready yet and so the tail rode yusei’s bond to crow instead
well, crow was the only one who could challenge the last vilain of season 1 together with jack and yusei, as aki didn't know how to ride a motorcycle and and leo and luna are kids, their fault for making it a 3 against one and by having the heroes ride motorcycles while the vilain is on a chair.
@@gab4198 Well that was only a thing because crow was turned from antagonist to protagonist partway through production due to black wings selling so well so they wrote around him. It doesn’t change that lifestream appeared before black-winged dragon did.
@@partyrock4144 Except for the fact that the production team has gone on record saying that wasn't the case. Crow was made a Signer because the director liked him, not because of some corporate scheme (given how the show doesn't use real-life Meta to dictate who wins and loses in the series or becomes a main character).
Stardust Dragon is my favorite monster ever. I always loved 5D's the most ever since I was a kid and Yusei to me is tied with Yugi for best YGO protag, he's just done right and when you think about it, his deck and ace monster represent him perfectly.
That's true since not only Stardust Dragon but his deck also resemble Yusei's characteristic. With the exception of the Stardust archetype, a large majority of Yusei cards are belong to the Junk archetype, mirrors his childhood life as a Satellite citizen. He also in possesion of monsters with interesting (but NOT competitive) effect such as Speed Warrior or Road Runner. His deck also seem to have a lot of cards with protection effect which resemble Yusei's feeling of protecting others.
Me too... I loved Blue eyes white dragon but i don't want to copy Kaiba because he's awesome... But came and knows want it represents "i love it and i want it... Stardust is awesome, Yusei is awesome"
Fun fact about the Crimson Dragon: while it's manga version has its own cards, the anime version instead has its incarnation version of itself in the form of the cards which are Majestic Star Dragon and Majestic Red Dragon and they are the only ways for the Crimson Dragon to gain access to the physical form to fight.
Oh I forgot. Majestic Star Dragon and Majestic Red Dragon also resemble the Crimson Dragon with Chinese-Dragon body style and the same design with the wings.
kyrios0307 its a Chinese style dragon with Incan origins that reincarnated into cards based on monsters from ancient Egypt in a show made by Japanese people. Makes perfect sense
Like I said after watching the duel... Rua/Leo's duel against Demak, or him having a rematch against Greiger/Bommer would've been the perfect time to have him get Life Stream Dragon.
On top of what was said in the video about Crow getting promoted to a signer pushing back Life Stream's reveal, a lot of stuff regarding the signers got shafted in the second and 3rd seasons bc Carly's JP voice actress was part of an IRL cult, and between that and I think a writer's strike they were basically forced to scramble to rewrite basically the entire latter half of the show
@@KrissyBlues Except for the fact that Carly's Japanese voice actress was found to be part of a cult AFTER production on the series wrapped up. As they themselves admitted, they simply ran out of ideas for her.
Little trivia: The reason Stardust dragon starts out as debris dragon comes from the anecdote of how a piece junk could one day turn into a gem to another.
Debris could also be taken as junk. Being that it's talking about Stardust Dragon, it likely refers to space debris or space junk to fit with the rest of the junk deck.
Yugioh 5ds is my favorite out of all of the yugioh series. My favorite monster is the stardust dragon, best girl in yugioh is akiza, best bro would be crow and his blackwing dragon, and jack was such a great rival with his red dragon archfiend. It's a real shame that the other signer dragons didnt get upgraded forms or majestic forms. I would love to see akiza summon a majestic black rose dragon or crow summon a majestic black wing dragon Edit: please do a stardust dragon video next lol there's so many cards that are connected to stardust
11:52 As of Lightning Overdrive, that's no longer the case as Black Rose Dragon got an upgraded form in Blood Rose Dragon. It also got a new younger form in Rox Rose Dragon.
Stardust: to protect everyone I'll kill myself, syke I'm back Red Archfiend: GET OUTTA MY SIGHT! Black rose: BOOM! Black-Winged: oh no I'm 0 ATK, SYKE NOW YOU'RE 0 ATK! Fairy: I'm banned lol Powertool/Life stream: I'm an Eva Ultimaya: i was supposed to be the CEO but I'm actually bad
Before this I'd have said my favorite signer was Yusei and favorite dragon was Black Rose dragon. But now? Leo and Lifestream Dragon have a new fan. Great job TGS. Also that line about Yusei offering Akiza his hand kinda sounds like he offered to marry her without context.
Honestly, Leo would be my pick for the Signer. I've always loved the Morphtron deck, and seeing Life Stream Dragon explode into the eight golden rings to fuse with Red Dragon Archfiend, Ancient Fairy Dragon, Black-Winged Dragon, and Black Rose Dragon to create Shooting Quasar Dragon will never not get me hyped.
Here's an idea, as they're expected to be printed in June, would you consider doing Jim Crocodile Cook's Fossil cards? He and Fossils are fan favourite from GX after all.
I like two things has changed since this video. One, Akiza's Black Rose Dragon finally gets an upgraded form. Two, Firewall Dragon getting the errata it exactly needs, where it's second effect is a hard once per turn, and only supports Cyberse cards like it's supposed to. So no more "Cannon Soldier go boom" or whatever.
Stardust Dragon is the leader Red Dragon Archfiend is the Lancer Black Rose Dragon is the big girl. Maybe Black-Winged Dragon is the smart guy. Crow himself is. Ancient Fairy Dragon is the chick. Life Stream Dragon is the sixth ranger. (Black Winged Dragon also counts)
I use the entire Red Dragon Archetype. I combine their field destruction with the three forms of Yubel. I can use Yubel to stall the opponent to get out Red Nova or King Calamity. The Resonator tuners summon other Resonator tuners. Red Dragon Archetype summons Resonator tuners too. So I do a lot of special summoning.
I’d be Yusei! I got back into yugioh after watching 5d’s & I related so much to him! And to make it ever better, the first packs of cards I bought after deciding to come back to the game was a special edition box where I got Stardust Dragon as a promo card!! It was awesome!! And therefore if I had to pick a dragon, it’d be Stardust Dragon!!
I loved the Synchro Dragons from this Era of Yu-gi-oh. My personal favourite, despite it's VERY specific uses, was Doomkaiser Dragon. A pseudo-dragon that fit the Plaguespreader Archetype well, and was an absolute joy to play in the TF games. He may only be a dragon in name, but he'll always be my number one.
I wish Black winged dragon would get a retrained counterpart so I can actually be good and synergise more with Blackwings or maybe even some upgraded forms
well that's why they did the counter trap for BW to summon it, and also auster to give it counters when banishing from the grave (ik that does not make him good, but hey at least some connection to BW was made, and I would even say the trap makes one copy worth being run, at least in fun versions) I agree though that a retrained version or an upgraded version that needs it as material would be nice
I love the blackwing deck and crows actually my favorite character, trust me mate the black wings when put together correctly are amazing cards , i know you made this comment three years ago but i figured i would let you know yk , dont let the hard of the cards spirit within you die out.
@@mercfume2073 Blackwings are amazing no doubt but my original comment was more about Black Winged Dragon itself the original card doesn't synergise very well with it's Deck unlike Power tool dragon and Morphtronics, RDA and Resonators and Stardust dragon and the Junk/Synchron cards the only cards they had at the time that synergised with Black Winged Dragon were Auster the south wind and Blackbird close and most of the time it wasn't even ran and people would just Full armor master or Chidori the rain sprinkling as the main boss monster instead though recently they have remedied this with Black winged assault dragon and all the other new blackwing support
When the tin for red dragon archfiend came out and I bought one, not only did I get lucky with the duelist genesis pack and pulled a ultra rare stardust dragon, but I ended up finding out that the tin didn't come with just one red dragon archfiend, I got lucky and it had two stuck together.
Yes! The Signer Dragons! I love these things! 5DS is, And forever will be, my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh! Series, it has the best characters and story in my opinion, and these dragons were actually apart of the reason I love the season, THEY ARE SO COOL!!! I own almost all of the base ones(just missing Life Stream Dragon), even some of the manga exclusive ones mentioned in this video, And they are also the reason why I actually really love Synchro Monsters in general. So I must say thank you for doing this video!
Best YGO anime imo! I just watched it for the first time and my god i enjoyed every Minute of it! The Jack/Carly arc replaces even my all time fav duel city arc ^^
I actually wrote fictional lore about a secret Signer... The signer is a decendent of a tribe that guards the dragons and makes sure that the dragons gets to their rightful owners... And one that sends the dragons to Yusei's father and to the others... But fails to send Life stream dragon until Leo awakens... The signer uses a dragons of the ice barrier deck... And his ace card will be Gungnir dragon of the ice barrier with his own summon chant... "Engulf the world with azure flames and burn the darkness that hides within and become the barrier that protects the light! Come forth Gungnir dragon of the ice barrier!" He also has Brioniac dragon of the ice barrier and Trishula dragon of the ice barrier as his ultimate dragon...
5D's was released when I was in high school and my friends and I wasted all our money to get the dragons. Mine was Black Rose and is still probably one of my most fave cards.
The one rex has original crow was supposed to be the final dark singer but due to black wings being popular , Rex became the final dark signer instead and they kept Crow because black wings make lots of money.
Yeah I agree. Wirrahcoca Rahska (god I misspelled that so horribly lmao) seems like it would be a fitting Earthbound Immortal for a character who specializes in dark bird-like monsters.
This is an amazing video! My thoughts With Crow they should had made him be a villain in s1 and made Crow become a hero after that season. Because of him Leo's character suffered and didn't grow as a character until he almost died thus they had to shoehorn him as a signed later on.
Bro I kid you not as soon as I'm watching this Yu-Gi-Oh master door got an update and it literally has the Blackwing deck and it gave Blackwing the dragon an a assault mode and it also has more support cards and I've been spectating a few duels and I got to say it's even better than ever❤❤❤
Personally red dragon archfiend has always been my favourite. When I was a little kid I thought he was the coolest Yugioh monster in the show. Now I still like him even though his effects are trash in the modern day. He is just a bit nostalgic I guess. I have entire DECKS of him in duel links because of how many little strategies I think would make it better. I hope to someday have a copy of him in real life.
So as a swordsman we were called The Dragons, with myself having the title (among two others) Head, the leader. I find it funny cause stardust was always so cool to me how it could sacrifice itself to save the field and is used by the signer with the head mark.
I feel like Ancient fairy dragon had potential to be a main character. She can communicate after all. Maybe she could be in control of the other dragons.
Akiza because her Dragon was the easiest to summon early on and back then nukes were very rare. Hers aged the best too while keeping it's themes, whereas Stardust and RDA became negate fother later on.
Wait a second. You know? Black rose dragon has 2400 Atk, and Akiza was one of Yusei's close friends. Joey was one of Yugi's closest friends and Red-eyes had.......yep 2400. The more i look at it, the more Black Rose takes after Red-eyes.
In my deck I have all 6 of them. Oh also I have the Beel dragons u know the ones with two heads. I'm sad cause my friend stole my ultimaya tozlkin dragon. Until I stole it back lol. Also I have all of there other forms. It's so funny when my friends freak out when we're dueling each other and I say the way to summon the dragons
Still today Stardust is my favorite Signer Dragon, was one of the first cards I got from a friend when start playing competitive. I would never trade it or sell it
Stardust Dragon is the Head Red Dragon Archfiend is the Wings Black Rose Dragon is the Foot Ancient Fairy Dragon is the Claw Black-Winged Dragon is the Tail Life Stream Dragon is the Heart Where is the connecting Body? Signer Dragon Fusion-type monster? That's my Signer Dragon of choice
11:52 Funny (as Fxk) They give Ruddy Rose Dragon (Aka Black Rose Upgrade Level 10 Form) Release on Lightning Overdrive after This Signer Dragon Archetype VDO Release
The level of support that each signer dragon has seems releavent to each signer's centeral arcs (Yusei having the most, Jack a close second & Akiza a distant third with Crow, Leo and Luna getting ziltch)
at least Akiza got something in the support. while Crow's dragon got nothing except 2 ards because the deck it is part of rarely plays it. Sad for Luna's dragon. got banned AND doesn't even has a proper deck
Actually, the fight with the Crimson Devil took place an additional 5000 years before the fight with the Earthbound Immortals that led to Ancient Fairy Dragon being captured.
I think both the sub ver and dub ver make good points in their own way, the sub ver giving some depth to yusei’s character and the dub going kinda deep into what decisions you make and what the characters consider “Destiny”
Shit Leo was basically the Signer anyway. Leo was in ALL of Luna’s duels and had a way better deck then her. Luna was just kinda there for Leo to cuck her
Fun fact, if you have both Red Dragon Archfiend and Stardust Dragon and Stardust comeback during the end phase after he used his destroy negation effect, Red Dragon Archfiend triggers and destroy Stardust, that's when you have the choice to negate it, the choice to keep only one of them
14:38 "Once per turn, you can destroy as many field spell card on the field as possible." WHAT?! How is that possible if only one field spell is allowed on the field?
I have Stardust Dragon and Ultimaya Tzolkin. I didn't know that Ultimaya Tzolkin is an evil dragon, I always thought it was the Crimson Dragon(the good one in the anime). I'm confuse. The manga reveille's everything. And a upgraded version, also the link version. My mind simply blows up!
Exactly, like was it really worth changing a lot of 5ds story because of Bwings popularity when all Bwings got was possibly a bad monster, that is the worst signer dragon. Like come on, should've actually made Crow a dark signer, since when all the other people became dark signers, they got new cards for their archetypes, making them stronger, so why not just make Crow a Dark Signer, and get them the new support that came with archtypes bring associated with dark signers.
If we’re leaving archetype suggestions, I’d really like to see the Ninja archetype. They’ve been around for a long time and duel links has me hooked on them.
Well i mean you couldn't have all 6ds on the field at once so maybe he just summoned lifestream during one duel and blackwinged during the other thats just my theory tho
A long time ago I bought a yugioh booster pack for my brother because it was his birthday. When I gave it to him he looked at the cards and he found something strange: a syncro dragon with no level... it was the crimson dragon, Ultimaya Tzolkin
