It's hilarious to realize how far the crappy dub is behind the actual product coming out. Utopia Ray V and Limited Barian's Force aren't due for another 25 episodes (or about six months), and Misael, a character who we won't see until around the same time, was all over the promotional material for Lord of the Tachyon Galaxy.

...of course, these estimates are assuming Konami can actually get whoever's cranking out the hackjob to continuously produce new episodes until then and not, you know, inexplicably stop for half a year like they're known to do.

That's odd because the Japanese booster boxes don't have characters on them. They just changed the name of the game to "Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal" while the American version just uses "Yu-Gi-Oh" yet plasters a character who won't show up in the dub for a year on it. I wonder if they'll put Vector on Judgment of the Light and ruin the whole surprise. It's a shame Konami of America has no idea how to handle this franchise and treats it so poorly. I remember how they turn a lot of common cards in the Japanese game, into Ultra Rare and Secret Rare for the American game. That has to violate some fair business practices or something with how much they rarity bump a ton of cards so people have to spend more money to get them when they're dirt cheap in the Japanese meta.
