I did some research about some of the translations are why off, below is a list of some of the episodes titles that are
incorrect. These are 100% right i used the websites

http://linear.mv.com/cgi-bin/j-e/dict

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yu-Gi-Oh%21_media_and_release_information


please correct these.

20. 恋する乙女は強いのよデッキ (Koisuru Otome ha Tsuyoi no yo Dekki)

恋する = to fall in love with; to love 乙女 = girl, maiden 強い = strong, powerful

The emphasis is on the fact that the Loving Maiden is strong, not that the deck is strong and has a beloved maiden in it.

34. 湯けむり旅情 (Yu Kemuri Ryojou)

湯 = hot water けむり = smoke, fumes (in other words, fumes from hot water. Steam) 旅情 = one's feelings while travelling (sentiments, travelling sentiments, etc)

36. ムコとり決闘 (Mukotori Kettou)

ムコとり = adopting a son-in-law into one's family 決闘 = duel, battle

41. 闘牛場 (Tougyuujou) literally "bullring"

42. ブラマジガール乱入 (Buramajigaaru Rannyuu)

乱入 = tresspassing, intruding

If it were meant to be translated as "Blamagigirl's Intrusion", it would be written as ブラマジガールの乱入 instead.

43. 明日香にセカンド・ラブ・チャンス!? (Asuka ni Sekando Rabu Chansu)

This one's pretty hard to decipher since the title is pretty asinine in the first place. There's no real good translation of it, but "A Second Love Chance for Asuka!?" definitely sounds better and makes more since that "Asuka in Second Love Chance!?"

47. サイバー・エンジェル-弁天- (Saibaa Enjeru Benten)

弁天 = Benten, Japanese Goddess of arts and wisdom. It's written as Benten in Alexis's page.

48. and 49. 2つの幻魔 (Tsu no Maboroshima)

幻 = phantom, vision, illusion 魔 = demon, devil

64. アニキへの熱き想いデュエル (Aniki he no Netsu ki Omoi Dyueru)

アニキ = Aniki (big brother), Sho and Kenzan's nickname for Judai へ = to, towards 熱 = hot, fevered 想い = feelings, thoughts, emotions

The emphasis is that duel has the passionate thoughts toward Judai, not they have passionate emotions because they want to duel Judai.

76. 合体 (Gattai) literally to unite, combine...

Wait, alliance is actually an accepted translation for that. Okay, Ultimate Alliance it stays.

84. 開幕 (Kaimaku) literally "raising the curtain". Has been translated as "Opens" in other episode titles as well like in 185.


The 'da' from 'da don' is a shortened form of 'desu'. 'Zetsubou no Kuni no Arisu' (絶望の国のアリス) is a
pun on the Japanese title of the story 'Alice in Wonderland', which is 'Fushigi no Kuni no Arisu', therefore
'Zetsubou no Kuni no Arisu' becomes 'Alice in Despairland'.



Note: The Top one is the one is on the site the bottom one is the correct one.
