So episode was by far one of the slowest, bit boring at times and that dude seems a bit too calm imo. Ruka apparently is ultra awesome but just seemed ultra passive.

Actually, to me this was one of the most awesome episodes. Looks like we'll be focusing on origins of monsters in 5Ds. Plus Ruka is amazing...

I agree with Netforce, it was probably the worst ep of the season, although it had decent information, I'm not sure how i feel about this series version of where the Dual Monsters come from.

Maybe ep 19 will explain things more

is a bit slow, because Ruka just entered in Duel monsters spirit world, so is normal goes slow, they explain a bit more in episode 19, but still hasn't subs yet (but since I'm a bit used to oral japanese, so I can tell +/- what they're saying.
I don't find the worst or best, is average, we know more of Ruka, I think she's passive because like is said she gets tired when she duels because her ability to hear her monsters tires her, so she has to calm down, she can't go screaming around.
but don't worry episode 19 is much better.

I'm with sanjica on this one. Amazing episode. <3

We got to learn a lot more about Ruka-chan this time. And I get the feeling we'll be seeing her dragon in the very near future too~~

God damn, I wanted to punch that effing priest in the effing face. Probably a child molester. Effing priest. Gah! I hope Ruka smacks him into next week.

-end rant.

Kuribbon is 5Ds iteration of kuriboh, huh... Well, it's cool that Ruka can sense duel spirits. Didn't expect this duel to last longer than an episode.

He wasn't a priest. He was a duel counsellor, which is essentially a psychiatrist hence why he used a psychoanalysis themed deck. :/

The fact that Rex forced this consolation duel just to test if Ruka was a signer seemed so unneeded since he basically got confirmation before when Akutsu's scanning program picked up the signal from Ruka when she was watching Rua's duel against Bommer. Also I realized that Ruka's deck doesn't seem to have a theme. It's just a bunch of fairy based monsters with a few generic Spells added in like Horn of the Unicorn and SORL.

Time to see what Luna can do. It's somewhat cool that she has the ability to communicate with Duel Spirits like in GX.

So far, the duel isn't going well for Luna, that's for sure. At least she managed Sunlight Unicorn there at the end. But, it's not looking good.

The plot thickens!

Very interesting duel between Luca and a surprisingly deep Assassin character.
