Hey everyone guess what's back?

To celebrate the one-year anniversary of the remaster, we (the fine folks over at the Baten Kaitos fan Discord) are bringing back Spiriter Week! And now it's bigger than ever: we're going multi-platform!

So mark you calendars for September 15th-21st!!!

Wait, what's this now? Back in ye olde golden age of Tumblr, we used to have an annual thing we called Spiriter Week, a week-long celebration of our favorite card-game RPGs.

What do you mean, "multiplatform"? Due to fandom no longer being fully (or even mostly) within the confines of one website, we figured it'd be a good idea to have folks participate wherever they want to. Tumblr, Twitter, Discord, or wherever. Still have a Pillowfort? Go crazy there too.

Ok, how do I participate? It's super easy- just post something Baten Kaitos related every day. Could be a fic, art, videos, whatever. Wherever you're posting it, use the tag #Spiriter Week I am not blessed with creative prowess Neither am I we're all just bullshitting Doesn't have to be anything skillful like art or writing. Could be fan theories, a personal anecdote, ranking your favorite xyz or even a haiku. Like this example I stole borrowed from No's original post:

Holoholo bird All my apples are rotten Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

This sounds great but I'm super busy there's no way I can post every day. Again, same here friend. No worries, even just one or two during the week is fine. Let's face it, we've all aged a number of years since these were last a thing and life has a way of stockpiling responsibilities.

On what authority are you organizing this? Alright ya got me I'm just some rando with a Gibari pfp. But come on, why not have some fun and build some hype around these games we love?

That's a nice banner where'd you get it? Damn right! Credit goes to No, who still had the old banner and managed to change some digits :D

How can we follow for updates? Here on Tumblr, I (and of course anyone else who wants to say something on the topic) will be posting in the #Spiriter Week tag. Some major updates might also be posted in the baten kaitos tag but I don't wanna spam it too much.

But yeah, that should cover most of the major stuff, feel free to reach out with any questions!

Yes i made sure to wake up at 4:30 am just to watch the MEIKO & KAITO 15TH anniversary concert.

I feel like i can write a whole essay about it and the sense of community i felt watching it. How, despite the fact Miku and the Twins are the more popular cryptonloids (and how people have been wondering if the twins should have their own concrrts/events) and KAITO & MEIKO have been put on the back burner for concerts (or completely forgotten for some projects) there are still fans who love them.

Like the live peaked at around 9.7k veiwers and the chat was so active that it lagged. Hell my youtube app crashed near the end.

It's just nice to see them get recognition and so much love❤️💙❤️💙

Updated Match Card for "Forbidden Door" + Big Changes to Match Card for NOAH's July 9th Event

After the events of "AEW Rampage" last night, at least one more match has been added to the "Forbidden Door 2023" taking place tomorrow (June 25th) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

The addition of Adam Cole vs. Tom Lawlor now brings the total match number for "Forbidden Door 2023" to 10 with at least 1 to 2 more expected to be announced after "AEW Collision" . Again, the match order will be determined either by the entrance theme of the wrestler's music in each match or an pre-match VTR.

And after the events from Kenoh's 15th anniversary event, big changes have been made to Pro Wrestling NOAH's July 9th event including the main event. Down below is the original match card:

Now, here is the revised match card with a change in the match order.

Now, we were expecting changes but in the way we see above, not the way we thought the changes would be. As seen this morning on YouTube and social media, Kenoh made the shocking announcement that Kongo will officially disband at night's end (June 24, 2023) and thus due to them disbanding, match card as well as the order of the final three matches in the event have been changed.

The original semi-main event is now the sixth match on the main card. The original main event is now the semi-main event. The show will now be main evented by Kaito Kiyomiya teaming up with Kenoh to face Manabu Soya and Daiki Inaba. This is not a typo as Kaito Kiyomiya will be teaming up with Kenoh for the first time since October 2021 where they won a tag match against Kasushi Sakuraba and Keiji Muto. This match will be Kaito Kiyomiya's last match for Pro Wrestling NOAH as he'll be heading to NJPW to compete in their G1 Climax Tournament starting on July 15th.

Also changed on the show is the third match on the card what was Hajime Ohara and Shuji Kondo vs. Seiki Yoshioka and Alejandro has been changed to Hajime Ohara and Alejandro vs. Shuji Kondo and Seiki Yoshioka. Again, all these changes are due to Kongo disbanding at Kenoh's 15th anniversary event earlier today.

With Kaito Kiyomiya now in the main event for July 9th; it is expected that win/lose or draw, Kiyomiya will be closing out the show with a big speech as he heads to NJPW's G1 Climax 33 which again starts on July 15th.

"The Forbidden Door" will air on PPV Worldwide on June 25th LIVE from Toronto, Ontario, Canada starting at 7 PM Eastern/6 PM Central/4 PM Pacific.

"Sunny Voyage 2023 in Hachioji" comes July 9th on Wrestle Universe at 4:00 PM Local Time/3:00 AM Eastern/2:00 AM Central/Midnight Pacific.

We already mostly discussed this before, but since we are going over Season 2's structure, it needs to be repeated.

In Season 2, there is 3 breaks, between Episode 84-85, 87-88, and Episode 95-96. I didn't notice the last one, apparently.

Episode 99 (last episode), and Episode 100 (first episode of Season 3) is a two parter, so the last break is somewhat covered, though as we noted, Episode 99 uses OP5, so it is part of the Season 3's production cycle.

Though this Season has more credited writers than Season 1, most of the episodes are written by Tsutomu Kamishiro, main writer of the ARC-V series. The new writers do not do a lot of episodes. Go Zappa, who won't return until VRAINS, is obviously not here, and won't be in Season 3.

****

Now for the actual structure of the Season.

First 14 or so episodes are the set up of this Season, with 4 of them taking place in Standard, and rest of 10 episodes taking place in Synchro. There is about 2 episodes with Yugo, 4 episodes with main cast, and 4 episodes in the Facility.

After this, rest of the Season is mostly Friendship Cup, and associated conflicts.

Friendship Cup's structure is basic:

Top 16 has 8 main cast vs. 8 Synchro Dimension characters.

Top 8 has 4 main cast vs. 4 Synchro Dimension characters.

Top 4 has Yuya vs. 3 Synchro Dimension characters.

Top 2, which is also the finale, is Jack vs. Yuya.

With Yuya defeating Jack, and attaining the Duel King title, rest of the conflicts will now become quaint compared to this, since Yuya's power level is much, much higher most of the cast, comparable to early WRGP Yusei. Only Kaito, and Yuri will provide a serious challange to Yuya power level wise, so most of the conflicts going forward will be more personal, since we cannot push Yuya more physically now. In Yuri's case, he will only become a serious threat after absorbing Yugo, though. Leo won't be a serious Duel, since he won't be alone in that match up.

In terms of card promotion, the situation is more abysmal. All of the main set cover cards except Raging Dragon, and Z-ARC have already appeared, though we do not yet know Starving Venom's effects. Outside of Ciphers, Windwitches, Lyriluscs, Leo's Deck, and Z-ARC's Deck, there won't be any major new theme introduced, since we already got the glimpse of Predaplants. This was somewhat inevitable, since Fusion Dimension takes from GX, which was all about next generation updates of old themes, and promoting existing themes from OCG rather than introducing new ones, but you can guess how interested Katsumi Ono is about this.

As we discussed before, it is pretty obvious that Katsumi Ono he would somehow get a 4 year series like GX, since this series was the series for GX's 10th anniversary (outside of also being 15th anniversary of the card game, 15th anniversary of the Studio Gallop animé series, 20th anniversary of the franchise etc.), so there was never a plan to cut down Synchro arc to make room for Xyz arc. If the breaks in Season 2 didn't happen, we would probably get the Yuya vs. Yugo deal instead, not an earlier intro to the Xyz arc.

Another issue is also the legacy characters. Synchro arc technically has most legacy characters, though only 2 of them are major Duelists in ARC-V, rest are cameos, some voiced, some not. Though most of the early 5D's cast were designed by Kazuki Takahashi, since Katsumi Ono was the director (though again, only really involved in Fortune Cup-Dark Signer arcs, which are the ones referenced most in here), getting 5D's characters were probably the easiest route, as long as higher ups, and VAs themselves played ball. Getting ZEXAL characters, or GX characters will prove more difficult.

These structural issues aside, this Season was fun. Rest of ARC-V won't be.

For the main cast themselves, Dennis, and Serena, Sora, and Yuzu's replacements, are re-replaced by them by the end of the Season, so only net gains are Tsukikage, and Reira, who have a lot of character development here. Crow, and Jack also count as recruits from Synchro Dimension. Yugo obviously doesn't join with main cast, stuck as the deuteragonist, and Reiji will take a more on-hands in the later part of Fusion arc.

Rainy Snowdrop by Re:nG / Translation

レイニースノードロップ / Rainy Snowdrop

This is KAITO's official 15th Anniversary theme song for Magical Mirai 2021! Link to this song's page on Vocaloid Lyrics Wiki (romaji can be found here!): Rainy Snowdrop

Lyrics: KATABIRA Yuki Music & Arrangement: Re:nG Electric Guitar: SATORI Kento Illustration: Heiwa Movie: Andou Vocals: KAITO

声を上げろ 黙った僕の存在意義なんて どこにもないんだ

“Raise your voice.” There isn't any reason for me to exist If I’m silent

新しい靴おろすと すぐ土砂降りの雨で

I wear new shoes out And it starts pouring immediately

傘を持つとほら 嘘みたいに晴れるんだ

I open my umbrella, and look! The sky's clearing up as if it was a joke

昔からいつもツイてない星回り 鼻をすする音を雨がかき消した

It's always been like this, I have no luck The rain drowns out the sound of my sniffles

代わりはいくらでもいて 選ばれない自分

There are countless people who can replace me I am never chosen

俯き歩き見つけた花の名は そっと春を告げる スノードロップ

As I hung my head and walked, I found a flower whose name Softly announces the arrival of spring "Snowdrop"

青く揺れる理想と夢が また不甲斐ない僕を衝き動かすから

My ideals and dreams sway blue And rouse me from my spiritlessness

声を上げろ 黙った僕の存在意義なんて どこにもないんだ

“Raise your voice.” There won't be any reason for me to exist If I remain silent

踠けよ やりきれない世界で

Give it your all in this unbearable world

「どうでもいい」とか 「わからない」だとか そのまま歌うのは簡単だけど

“I don’t care” Or “I don’t know.” It's easy to keep singing like that, butt

答えがないような気がしても 諦めきれず探す日々は無駄じゃない

Even if I feel like there are no answers, The days I spend searching without giving up are not in vain

考えすぎだと笑う君を思い出す

I remember you laughing as you say I'm thinking too much

流れ流され過ごせば楽になる でもそんな弱い僕は嫌なんだ

oing with the flow might be easier But I hate being that weak

エゴでもいい 偽善でもいい この歌声だけが二人を繋ぐから

I don't care if it’s egotistical, I don't care if it's hypocritical This voice is the only thing that will connect the two of us

声にならない痛みは 眠れない夜の祈りに変えよう

Let me take my voiceless pain And turn it into a sleepless night’s prayer

希望と不条理を抱え

I’ll hold on to my hope and irrationality

「変わらずにいて」そう願うのは ワガママだと分かっているよ

“Stay as you are.” I know it’s Selfish to wish for that

あの日の君と僕は あの日のまま心に

In my heart, the you and I of that day Remain as we were on that day

もう雨は上がった 晴れた空を仰ぎ見る

The rain has now lifted I look up at the clear sky

過去も傷もこの苦しみも 手放さずに向き合うことを決めたんだ

I’ve decided to face my past, my wounds And this pain, without letting go

落ちる雪と 孤独に凍えた背中は 遠い記憶

The falling snow And my back frozen in loneliness Are now far-off memories

青く揺れる理想と夢が また不甲斐ない僕を衝き動かすから

My ideals and dreams sway blue And rouse me from my spiritlessness

声を上げろ 無力さを嘆いてないで 扉を開けよう

“Raise your voice.” Instead of lamenting my powerlessness, I’ll open the door

涙が乾いたら未来へ

When my tears dry, I'll head into the future

Translator's Note:The snowdrop flower is one of the first flowers to bloom at the end of winter, and so is associated with hope, consolation and overcoming obstacles. Translator's Side Note: AAAAAAAAHHHH What a beautiful song! Re:nG-sama has done it again. I'm so glad KAITO is getting the love he deserves. Enjoy this song, everyone. HAPPY 15TH, DEAR KAITO!

I translated Phantom, the theme song for Kaito’s 15th Anniversary!

lyrics under break

It's good to see you, how are you doing on this day?

 An unplesant feeling, a spector watching me 

 It's always a pleasure, to see your beautiful face 

 Where is this? Who are you?

 A place where happiness doesn't exist, a wave of emotion 

 Deep in the depths of a deserted canal, a trapped princess must be rescued.

 The singing voice grows impatient 

 In a trembling voice, I keep singing "I want to go home" to that person 

 A bouncing staccato 

 A preemptive opening 

 Smiling behind the mask, I've been waiting for this time with you. 

 With tears and furrowed brow, the Joker unclasped his hand

 I have to find my way out of here 

 I won't let you get away from here 

 I'll keep the oath that I've made

 A promise has been made 

 Alone in this place where the sun doesn't shine 

 I can see the outline of somebody's face 

 I grew up without ever knowing love 

 I wish to end that sorrow 

 Years of loneliness had taken their toll

 A monster, an abomination, clinging to greed for dear life.

 The rules are cruelly engraved.

 They didn't want people like you. They sent us away to these underground canals. 

 My vision is far too cloudy 

 I can't see reality

 Smiling behind the mask, the time with you that I've been waiting for 

 The Joker, shedding tears, tightly clasps his hands together 

 Don't drown in your sorrows.

 I just don't know what to do 

 To the pitiful you 

 Our promise has yet to be fulfilled 

 I love you. Your voice, your hair, your eyes.

 Take it all in your hands. This is your destiny. 

 A tyrant who dances miserably in his prison, hoping for the worst 

 What is the true happiness that I've been keeping away from without realizing it? 

 Skin decayed, eyes sunken, the feared monster quivers 

 Many tears falling, a hand is held out to the Joker in pity 

 No one can know what's behind the mask. 

 In the end, the curtain falls without a soul to ever know

[muthur6000]
