Mm, Yuzu in a duel this episode. I'm not really a fan of hers when it comes to dueling but I think she is at least trying her best. We get some warrior type monsters this episode although I wasn't very impressed by them, neither am I of Yuzu's skills...

The thing that I really liked this episode is Synchro Summon. Holy shit, I haven't seen this since 5d's. Excellent, I need to rewatch some of the older episodes again since this was quite nostalgic. Great episode overall. I'm still very happy they bought back this concept.

Gem-Knights and X-Sabers?! Sucks that Yuzu lost. Gotta love them X-Sabers though. Loved playing this deck back in the day when it was good.

This is getting kind of ridiculous with Yuzu and that guy, though. He saved her from no actual danger and now she has visions of that guy and sees Yuuya as him all the time like it was some life changing meeting with her long lost brother.

Even for anime logic standards Yuuya doesn't even look remotely like him and has a different voice. If she applied some common sense to the situation she would've also noticed that Yuuya could've never changed his outfit and complete hairstyling in the time that guy disappeared and he appeared. There is nothing to be conflicted, confused or doubtful about here... I don't understand what the point of this is really.

And here I was hoping for a cool duel and seeing some different cards from her. -_-

Also... who would ever agree to those unfair conditions for these duels in the first place?
I would've said "Okay, our duel school is yours if we lose... but if you lose LDS belongs to us."

Not only would that be a fair condition instead of winning nothing at all since the blame they want to put on Yuuya is fake anyway but if LDS was theirs they couldn't blame Yuuya to have had a duel with his 'now' schoolmate in a duel school if they still would want to go through with the whole thing.

Even though Yuzu lost she still did well with her only turn (stupid reflection) but it was actually pretty good with that little hope they gave you. Also they are doing the pyschological part of yuzu decently and better then I anticapated.

I hate all people that use X monsters and the constant summoning that those cards do, I hope they get crushed

Yuzu had a pathetic match unfortunately. Dem X-Sabers though, such nostalgia.

Yeah I agree with you about Yuzu. She's not using any common sense whatsoever. Everyone knows that Yuya can't Xyz Summon, so why continue this ruse... I like to see the Gem-Knights in the duel. I've played them myself, so it was awesome to see them in action. I like when the Synchro user synchro summoned. SYNCHRO SHOKAN! Now THAT brings back memories!

Yugioh female characters sure are unlucky they are getting trolled too often.
Still Yuzu put a good fight.
Im getting kind of tired of all these posing I mean if it would on Jojos level it be cool but they just say the same thing over and over again.
Yuzu x Yuya shippers must be happy after this ep.

Yuzu has predicted was the jobber here to set up the rubber match. I am disappointed, that it was over by the half way point, can at least give her a whole episode.

I don't know what is going to happen next, Yuzu loses, but this comedic relief character might get to save the day and win the big match? Unless the bad guys win, which I kind of hope, it would show that the plot is going to move fast. Which is good. If they lose the school I blame it on that traitor Sora, who first of all towards the end was rooting against Yuzu which I thought was because he wanted to duel, but than he chickens out and leaves in the hands of the comic relief character. Which is the equeverlent of leaving the fate of universe in the hands of Tetsuo in Zexal.

I liked the Fusion girl more than I thought I would, she actully had a couple of funny lines like notice the shipping moment, or telling her teammate not to lump her in with him. Less bitchy than I thought she was going to be.

I liked all three of these opponents, I hope they become secondary allies when the real villains show up in the next arc or the arc after that.

Looks like from the future episode titles, the match wll be a draw, or LDS will win an agree to give Yuuya one more chance.

Man Yuzu got destroyed. Short duel T__T

Aww Yuya x Yuzu moment

Sora left and Gongezeka has to duel the Synchro Duelist!!

Was expecting Fusion vs Synchro > ; 0

I have no idea if he can beat that duelist. Maybe the match will get interrupted.

Really happy to see some synchros and more fusions (even though it was short).

I'm honestly kinda hoping the X saber guy will win though, or maybe a really close draw, because those LDS guys are supposed to be the top students... (or maybe I'm just biased towards synchros, haha)

Episode was okay. I'm really upset at how they are trying to mess up Yuzu's character though. They start off giving me hope that they won't make her just another female side character, but now I'm not so sure. And they made her completely void of common sense. I would say something on that topic, but DancingJack covered all the points.

FFS, would it kill them to make a main female character who can actually duel? And I mean really duel. Kind of like Mai, or Alexis, or Akiza, but better.


I kind of want LDS to win. It would be a nice surprise, and could make for a more interesting story.

Yuzu is not just another female side character. She's a violent slapstick bitchdere. Creators are introducing young kids to otaku female stereotypes

Also wtf? Is Plymeriztaion banned in that timeline? Why are they surprised by the most basic fusion summon rules like using tribute materials in your hand?

Also I'm a bit pissed how stacked everyone's decks are

That's the other thing I really dislike - It's like every character has only 10 different cards in his deck that he draws in exactly the same order every duel.

Really enjoyed this episode! Unlike in ZeXal, each of the characters actually has a purpose/funny thing that they do, and are not replaceable. Even the LDS kids had some funny moments.

Also, we all knew that Yuzu was going to lose. Its a 2/3 match victor takes all, and we all know that the creators always want to give each character a chance to duel. Granted, they needed to end the game fact, because she drained her entire hand for that one Mozart play, and would not have had a serious follow-up given her current state. I just hope she learns fast that her psychic premonitions put her beloved duel school in serious shit. My favorite part of the episode, other than the massive synchro summoning, was when Gem Knight girl calls Yuzu out, before proceeding to kick her ass into next week! I love Yuzu and all, but someone needed to tell her how it is.

I absolutely LOVED seeing Gem-Knights and X-Sabers! Actual Real-world archetypes that many of us know and love, getting their screentime for the FIRST TIME EVER, and in full competitive fashion, no less! Now THIS is what brings on the SHIVERS!!!

Yuzu's character still have a lot of chance to develop. Remember that Yu-gi-oh is 100+ ep series. She has potential to be great female lead.

OMG! at how Zexal episode discussions were so empty (even in the last and best chapters)

And now look at ARC-V episode discussions, 2 pages!! wow, that's really an improvement.

"Fusion user" sounds funny and cool at the same time. As a musician I can definitely appreciate Yuzu's deck. In fact, I love it! But again with depleting someone's whole score in one turn...I'm tired of seeing it already. A good duel is back and forth and seeing players score go down gradually, not all at once.

I'm also curious as to how Yuuya keeps his jacket up like that. And Sora got some nerve talking so high and mighty but not actually dueling. He's cocky why? Has he even won a duel on screen yet?

Yeah I knew Yuzu was going to lose the duel. I swear the only female that was as strong as the main character was Akiza from 5D's. I don't hate Yuzu, but this was probably the worst duel she had...

Awww, I hoped Yuzu would use her Melodious like the real life deck, aka summoning Aria and Elegy to make them all undestroyable. That would've been a better duel :/ X-Sabers were cute tho

An actual duel without action cards bullshit for once, sucks Yuzu had to be the one to get a loss, hope she gets to actually win a match in the near future.
