Woo, new OP song! Nice.

Imo, the episode was tense...with what Academia has planned.
Didn't surprise me that they took Dennis already. Sigh. I guess we'll see him duel again in the future (wonder what deck though)...

Excited to see Reiji take his plan to action but eh, I wanted to see him duel D:
Interesting to see Sora again. I almost miss the guy.

recap episode for first half way to kill the hype with new op - -

sneaky jean put mind control device to security.

and heck why most evil character need to explain their plan all the time.

sora sent dennis back to acedamia and Leo sent barrett to go after serena?

with half of them being recap this is worst plot episode so far.

i don't like new ending theme at all.

The new opening is so GREAT! I really LOVE this new OP! I was disappointed that most of the episode is a recap though. Still, the new OP is enough to make up for it. At least for me. (^w^)

Was an OK recap episode. Second half of the episode provided a lot of exposition though. Kind of freaky, yet unsurprising that Jean planted mind control chips into his Security force. Makes me wonder if the Academia soldiers have those chips planted in them as well?

So it seems we might not see Dennis for awhile, but that's a sacrifice we will take to watch Sora duel again. Seems Serena and Yuzu are going to be the plot device for this season. Honestly, wouldn't be surprised if Yuzu loses. (Will not like that outcome though)

At first I thought "meh, another recap", but after reading the script it turns out that the first half was plot disguised as recap. So the Council knew about Academia even before the Lancers arrival, heh. Roger deserted Academia and wants to build his own kingdom in the City. I guess the previews about him collaborating with Yuya makes alot more sense now. I'm pleasantly suprised that they decided to take the Tron/Dr. Faker route rather than Roger being simply another Fusion scum. Also, the new OP/ED were fantastic, especially the ED. That Sawatari x Serena shipping. Sawatari is now officially Manjoume of ARC-V.

YUP! Never thought that Sawatari would develop feeling for Serena…though I'm sure it would be one-sided for the start, considering both has contradicting personality. The ED is good, though I feel a bit awkward seeing the Executive Councils are also included in such…relaxing manner. Even Yuri appeared! (I don't mind him though since he looks so cute when sleeping like that) Unlike the others, he is shown alone in the ending even though Sora is with Crow and the others from Synchro Dimension. Other than that, the rest is great!

I've only watch the new OP and not the episode itself. Needless to say I'm very hyped though I'm disappointed that The Man Gongenzaka isn't included in OP. Looking forward for sub.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Yuzu losing and potentially suffering similar injuries that Damon did when he lost to Sergei will cause Yuya to go into his Berserk Mode again.

Shinji and Sergei were left out in the opening even though they are also participants in the Friendship Cup.
Does this mean Shinji is also the enemy?

Sergei was shown on the left side of Barett in the opening when they contrasted Roger and Akaba Leo with the Security and Obelisk Force. On the other hand though, Shinji's main goal is to start a revolution in the Synchro Dimension. Perhaps Jean attempts to recruit him if he finds Shinji useful to his plan?

New, nice OP/ED. We got to see all characters including 4 dimentional self of Yuzu and Yuuya.

The half of episode was just a summary of what happened in 10-15 episodes. Next week will be intense, cuz it's time for Queen!

A good episode. I thought the recap was just going to be plain ol' recap when everybody was disappointed by it, but it was actually pretty smartly done. Turns out the Council are truly assholes who just sit 24/7 in the Council Room while doing important decisions without even lifting a finger. Jean also freaking out after Reiji straight out rejected him was funny. Next week, more Melodius & Yuzu! But I have a really bad feeling 'bout that creepy smirk of Sergey's...
Also, love the new OP/ED, they're totally rockin'. Though the ED's lyrics are pretty sad.

I have a feeling that Shinji's left out 'cause it's been already spoiled that

I think that's just Enlightenment Paladin riding on top if it, which was a nice reference btw. Unless you mean something else

Cool new OP and ED. Cute Manjoume-style Sawatari X Serena in the ED and in Yuugo's scene in the OP we can confirm Yuzu's plans to get herself a reverse harem of Yuuya and his counterparts.

I legitimately don't know what would be better for the plot, Yuzu winning or losing her next duel. I want Yuuya to be happy and not going through an emotional crisis for once, but at the same time I want him to go berserk and spread hell with his dragons. Well, we'll see.

Well I love the new OP, I guess this means we ain't leaving the synchro dimension anytime soon.

First half of the episode was just a recap episode, I thought it was going to be a recap episode, I guess they didn't have enough stuff to fill out the episode. That or the viewers needed to be reminded of what is going on.

The more I see them, the more I hate the council, I can't that smirk that chairman, part of me is rooting for Jean or Acadama, to do something to get to express an emotion.

Jack is going to be the big key weather or not this dimension falls to Acadamia or Jean and security. Jean with his mind control powers, I wonder if he is going to try to use that on Jack.

Well all and all a good episode in the second half.

I love the ED too, this show is two for two with the new OP and ED, and Shingo again is the buffon. And we see all of the girls, Yuzu, Selena, Rin, and Ruri.

Next episode, Yuzu is going to face Sergey, this should be good.

With Enlightenment Paladin, Yuya finally mastered multiple summoning methods like Reiji and Reira…except Ritual Summon. If he able to perform Ritual Summon, Yuya finally mastered all Summoning Methods! I wanna see Odd-Eyes Gravity Dragon!

I think I'm getting affected by this site because I didn't used to mind recaps. XD I liked how some of the recaps contained new information. That's as much better as the recaps are going to get. I hope Yuzu won't lose to Sergey next episode; I'm feeling that she might. In the preview, I saw Sergey's facial expression changed to a somewhat more understanding kind; maybe Yuzu has changed his mind about something. Sora's back in action! I can't wait for that desired confrontation between Yuya and him. I want to know Academia's backstory as well. Sora and Dennis are acting like this is a normal thing to do, so it would be great to have their perspective on this situation. Nice OP and ED; I'm really feeling the music!

Well for what we got out of the episode, it was good for the most part, and the new op and ed where maybe the best yet :D

As for next epsode, I want Yuzu to loose cuz we might get some more beserk-ness, but then again I want her to win....just cuz.

Half recap episode. That's new.
Yuuri galore in the new OP! I hope this time we get to see him duel!
Crow will replace Dennis in Lancers! -- Wait! That's no good!

Enlightenment Paladin on top of Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon reminds me of Master of Dragon Knight. If they actually will fuse or something, I will commit sudoku for eternity!

Dat Sergei's smile at the end.. He'll rape Yuzu isn't he? *In duel way, of course!* :P

I waited all this time to watch and my god how I regret.

Arc-V is delivering, new OP/ED are GORGEOUS, the ost is becoming one of my favorites and holy shit the duels are so hype. @_@

Need the next episode ASAP, even if Yuzu will probably lose, I want to see Sergey deck.

Amazing opening as expected from cinema staff. I knew they'd deliver. Reminded me of Hitman Reborn op 2.

Was Yugo about to jizz? lol

WTF! No Melissa Claire in the opening? That's bullshit.

Half episode recap gonna half episode recap.

As for the new material, it was great. Roger showing his full colors now. Silly council. You should have removed Roger by force. Now he's put his plan into motion. Roger's plan is going to be ruin now that Dennis told Leo. lol

Sergey rape face. LOL

Good ending song. Yuya laying in the grass in the beginning reminded me of Judai in the final ED of GX.

DAT Sawatari/Serena(especially this one), Tsukikage/Reira shot tho. 5D's much:



Finally showed all the remaining Yuzu counterparts now when you could have done that in the last ED when they were revealed.

lol at Sawatari catching feelings for Serena. Don't know if his feelings are canon yet or just for the ED.

Damn. I wish I was sleeping next to Melissa Claire.
