5D's 75
i.e.: the episode where I take way too many screencaps of the first half of the show.
So, we have the trio working on a D-Wheel for Aki, and then Aki comes in.
Which leads to Crow expressing the thoughts of the audience with a wolf whistle. ILU CROW. SRSLY.
Hey, I can totally dig that new D-Wheel. I like it.
Obligatory "Let's stare out to sea" romantic scene. Apparently this happens after the Sherry duel. Or something.
Hahaha, I like how Aki's the only one in the D-Wheel class with chesticles a girl's uniform.
Obligatory three-member goon squad. Oh, left goonie, why do you look like Fujiwara's love child?
Said three-member goon squad harrasses Aki while she's sitting with the twins, and they're also in her little class. Whoopie.
Anyways, time for driving lessons. Goonie one crashes at the first turn. Goonie two makes the first turn but gets yelled at by the teacher.
Then it's Aki's turn.
She thinks she's got it.
Yuusei thinks otherwise.
No, she doesn't got it.
Pfft, this scene makes me snortgiggle every time. Because it's too funny for Aki. SInce when did she become comic relief?
This scene also marks the point where Aki's voice rises like, two octaves or something.
Ooooh...think they're wincing at the crash or at how high Aki's voice has gotten?
This is probably the closest thing to a sweatdrop we're gonna get from Yuu. Enjoy it while you can.
After that, there's more cutscenes depicting her time learning to drive.
Gratuitous booty shot!
More impossible crash angles!
It is at this point that I realize it's Yuusei yelling at her and not the dueling instructor. Is he enjoying being the one on top, now?
How have you not snapped your neck yet, Aki?
Aaaanyways, she keeps driving, and she eventually makes that first turn. Yaaaaay!
Wait. Did you just say "Yatta!" Aki?
Wait, Yuusei. Did you just say "Yatta," right back?
...Once in a lifetime moment, people.
How badly did you bang up that thing on your first day, Aki?
Whoa whoa whoa. You have to do that at this class?!
...I think I'd like to drop out now, plzkthx.
And now, Yuusei's gonna give Aki some after-school coaching. Something called a "turnback", where you turn around and start going backwards in the same direction. Why can I not stop laughing at the scene where Yuusei just kinda rolls backwards past Aki and is still talking? It just looks kinda comical.
Anyways, Aki gives it a shot.
...And judging by those expressios, she didn't do a very good job.
Yeah, she didn't. Pounce on her while she's vulnerable, Yuusei!
So now Yuusei and Aki are going to remedy this problem by...
...Rollerskating. ilushow Apparently it's something about balance.
Which Aki doesn't have.
Which results in the obligatory "trip and fall into your crush's arms" scene. except Yuusei doesn't actually hold out his arms. You're such a bad boyfriend, Yuusei.
Yuusei: Who's co-dependent now, bitch?
Aki: ...shut up.
We're totally straight, gaiz.
Also: I just adore the music playing through the duel rink scene and the scene afterwards. Because it sounds so 70's-80's-ish and adorable.
Whoawhoawhoa. Okay, I admit, the scene is cute, but what? You two aren't supposed to smile like that. You guys look like you're hopped up on meds or something. It's not normal for you two.
No, Yuusei. Stop smiling like that. You look like a dork. and it makes me want to squish you so stop already.
Did you guys just give her D-Wheel a makeover?
Because I'm liking it. Is it just me, or does that D-Wheel have parts that look like the other three boys' D-Wheels? Because if it does, that is just plain adorable.
Aaaaanyways, it's time for her final exam duel or something. And Ushio's the opponent! Yaaaaay!
And Aki makes the mistake all Speed Duelers first do-try to play a speed spell without the right amount of counters.
Ushio is being such an asshole to her. XD XD XD He is like, ramming her shiny new bike (and I swear he's just trying to make her stop being nervous, I swear it).
Pffft. The laugh that Ushio's demon biker monster makes reminds me of Hiruma from ES21. Because of his little YA-HA! although it will never, ever be as epic as the original.
Aki has a new Synchro. It's effect is that if it removes a plant monster from the grave, it can halve the attack points of a monster it attacks, or halve its own attack points to attack again.
Obligatory goon squad tries to pull a dirty trick when it looks like Aki'll win, they trigger a whole rack of pipes to fall where she's at. Then Aki has a flashback to the nekkid imagination scene gawd Aki you are fixated on that, aren't you? and manages to pull off the trick Yuusei was trying to show her in order to get out of the scene unharmed and win the duel.
Everybody's happy for her, including Ushio, who congratulates her (gawd that makes me squee so hard for some reason) and...where's Jack?
Oh. *hearts* A happy ending. Also, Sherry was watching. EEEE~!
PREVIEW: Jack fights crime! FFFFF~<3 Also...is that Dick Pitt in the hospital? Oh, Dickie, you are the show''s crash dummy, aren't you?

Too sweet for those two. Cute, but too sweet.

Aki's D-Wheel kicks ass (and fhhhhhh; you are right about it looking like a fusion of they boy's bikes. Looks like somebody couldn't decide on designs XD)
I look forward to Jack fighting crime again. Though I've heard it might be not Dick Pitt, but Mikage. I'll be pleased with either.
no subject
It does. Now she just needs to blow up shit while on it.
...Baww, poor Mikage. And Ushio. D: But still. I need to see next week. Really.
no subject
THIS SO MUCH!!! I swear, they don't blow up enough random stuff anymore in this show. D:
no subject
And now that Aki's got her D-Wheel I want the co-dependency wars Immi and I have been speculating to happen so, so muchno subject
And that wasn't just 70's-ish music.... that was 70's porn music. And the fact that it continues into the scene where the boys give her the new bike just makes it better I swear.
