Pchi Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Hey, fellow duelists, it seems Konami is trying something new for today's card reveal: https://twitter.com/YuGiOh_OCG_INFO/status/650596459339841536 They posted this card pic on their Twitter this morning, but covered up its name and lore. Apparently, they want us to guess its name, but I don't know whether the "winner" will get a prize or not. You can bet your asses is some ridiculous Japanese pun, but since I'm far from being expert on the topic, I'll leave that to my fellow forum members versed on JP. Make your bets!

~British Soul~ Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 The first name that sprung to my mind was Harmonic Zebra for some reason, dunno why though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord200 Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Zebranica? Harmony Zebra? Muszebra? ( Music + Zebra. ) Zeblues? ( Zebra + The Blues. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 I got no idea on its possible name, but looking at its Level and assuming it will be Beast-type, I wonder if it will support Racoons/Level2 Beasts somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Assuming it's a Level 2 Beast, I'm oddly curious as to why it's Scale is 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Japanese for zebra is "shimauma"; I suppose one could make an island reference or something [because shima can translate to such], but picture suggests that's not the case. The first name that sprung to my mind was Harmonic Zebra for some reason, dunno why though. Probably because it's playing a harmonica in its artwork (though there's a triangle on its tail).Maybe it's something related to music, but I have no idea. If its effects were shown, maybe we could have a better guess at it. ------As for the Majespecter thing, it doesn't even look like one, least of all, it can't be P-Summoned with them or use their supports.Wonder what made them think of that idea. @Voltex: Probably it might, but it's a wild guess at this point, since we know nothing besides its Attribute and stats.

goodfusion Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Probably because it's playing a harmonica in its artwork (though there's a triangle on its tail). Its tail is curling round to its left foot, the triangle looks more like a spade handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pchi Posted October 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 New Age Retro Zebra?I don't understand how something can be retro and new age at the same time XDBut I hadn't noticed before that it was playing instruments. Could it be related to Synchros, given the current packs have been centered around that mechanic and Synchros' frequent music motif? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dramatic Crossroad Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 It should be some kind of far'fetched pun only native japanese speakers would know... Nevertheless, imma give it a try Kanashimauma (sadness + zebra)悲しみ (kanashimi) + シマウマ(shimauma) Zetsubo Zebra / Zebratsubo絶望 (zetsubo - despair) + zebra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Max Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Looks like a Desert behind it so I am thinking something like "Deserzebra" or something. That could also lend to the fact that it looks to be depressed and abandoned so it could also be Deserted and stuff.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Whatever it is, I think it has to do with the fact it is playing badly.The rest of the effect box might even be a reference to that. I'm gonna give it a wild guess and say it might be a Pendulum Tuner because Tuners sometimes have something to do with music or at least sound waves, but the Level pretty much sucks for generic use because as far as I've seen, only the Magicians I've seen with Scale 1 cards that could Summon this back.

Atypical-Abbie Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 YokoshimaumaDark Beast / Pendulum / EffectPS7 LV2 0/2000Pendulum Effect:(1) Once, during the Main Phase of the turn this card was activated: You can select 1 unused Monster Zone or Spell & Trap Zone; that Zone cannot be used while this card is in the Pendulum Zone.Monster Effect:(1) If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can select 1 unused Monster Zone or Spell & Trap Zone; that Zone cannot be used while this card is face-up.*Notes:1. Yokoshima means wicked, shimauma means zebra.2. The Pendulum Effect doesn’t say once per turn, but I went ahead and added it because I really don’t think even Konmai is crazy enough to create something that says your opponent literally cannot play YGO just by virtue of activating it right there. Let’s pretend this is bad text and hope for the best. Oh fun, an indirect Ojama support, being a Beast-Type, it works very well with them Didn't want to make another topic since this one exists.

Bringerofcake Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 ZeZeZe As in laughing in Japanese (sometimes translated as she she she) Hey konami can be pretty silly sometimes I kind of want to make a deck revolving around this somehow.

~British Soul~ Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Ok, if it isn't a misprint/mistranslation/whatever, things are definitely going to get hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 It was most likely a misprint. This is just a poster for the card after all, and no doubt the physical version will indeed have some kind of OPT clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
