I like how the producers emphasized this fight, such as having Rugos fly by Kai's head and the Blaster face-off.

I loled at Aichi's failed "Final Turn". Only Kai can pull off a Final Turn. He's the one who invented it. His image is just stronger. (Which is probably why he can beat Psyqualia; Psyqualia imposes the fighter's victory image on the opponent, but Kai's imagination is just stronger than Aichi's.)

Suiko's cliche "him" only makes me believe more strongly in my personal prediction of Clay having a king. That's probably who they're working for.

And for shits and giggles, when Aichi asked Blaster Blade to join him again, Blaster should've rejected him as payback. XD (Hey, Aichi needs to re-earn the loyalty of his cards, after all.)

I thought the tournament was still going. Why are they having the shop tournament? Did they drop out or something?

No more yandere Aichi I see... disappointed.

He still have the psyqualia though from Suiko's words at the end, all hope might not be lost.

Did he left that awesome Shadow Paladin deck on that table and walked away without it? What happened to the Nationals anyway?

I guess now even though he still have psyqualia he will not depend on its power. Aichi didnt even say sorry for leaving his cards ;( dam blaster blade should have slashed him for fun ;D

I had been looking forward to this episode for the entire week... lol
It felt kinda cheesy at the end and stuff, but I'm happy Aichi-kyun's back. ^^

I'm also quite confused about the shop tournament... Unless it's just something the manager started to help pass the time between the elimination round and the finals. But I like the idea of PsyQualia's images being slower than Aichi's own image. :3

In a way I hoped Aichi would win and succumb even further to the power of Psyqualia, but this was still a pretty damn good episode.

He was overusing that dark phantom dragon. No wonder his opponent defeated him :p

It is good to have Aichi back to normal though. I hope he can somehow combine psyqualia with his normal playing to enhance himself without becoming a douche again.

We've seen the power of both decks, now imagine how a combination of both would work out. You would need an incredible amount of luck to pull it off, but it would look pretty nice.

I was actually hoping Aichi could combine both decks and like own using them too XD anyways despite the clicheness this episode has to offer, I gotta say Kai is pretty awesome in everything he does lol I had to refrain myself from going to my imaginary plotline where Aichi cries and Kai smiles and hugs him anyways another random shop taikai episode, hoping to see Aichi still being as strong as he is now even without the yandereness :D
Oh yea Alfred Early lacked screen time, even if it was only to superior ride Blaster Blade

Another shop tournament? I wanted to see what happens at Nationals.

I for one am happy that we don't have to deal with Aichi's big talk anymore. Only Kai can back up what he says without any type of power.

Ah, so Aichi is back to his normal self again after abandoning Blaster Dark in that fight. Well I guess I should be happy right?

Now I have to deal with his shy self again. Anyways, I'll look forward to his inevitable fight against Ren in the future.

On the other hand, I also want to see that cyan haired girl fight sometimes in the future as part of Team Ultra Rare.
