Well, the Arcadia Movement was introduced formally, but I hope they go into the Yliaster Group before going in depth on the Movement.

Good duel, but I'm beginning to be annoyed by the fact that whomever Aki duels is going to get injured. I mean, the Duel Proflier was a jerk, but I felt bad for Kodo by the end because he was going to just get destroyed.

Mad Proflier is a fun card though. Reminds me of L a little bit.

Lol, i had the same thought. Wow, Aki has some incredible powers, she can't duel just for fun :P
Nice background story though.

Wow, a character that's changed hairstyles throughout their lives, what a surprise lol. Loved the duel; lots of interesting card effects outplaying each other. Nice seeing a bit of Aki's background.

Finally get Yusei vs Aki, been waiting for this.

Wow this gave us a lot of good info. So they finally have a term to describe people like Aki - psychic duelists. And there's the Arcadia movement, where they want to be accepted in society. Not important but I wonder who inspired this ;) the lore ahh

idk about this but when she used her amaryllis card to defeat the rose token, in the language of flowers, that's her pride winning over love. Rejecting it but being in the movement in the first place,.. I like where this is going.

The quick change between cleanly and crazy hair just by rolling up the front part is so cool. The sides that stick out kinda remind me of horns.

like with her duel with the knight, i felt a little bad about the harm aki's opponent experienced but he said such horrible things to her throughout their duel that i can't fully empathize with him.

also, the profiler really should have realized that his life was worth way more than the money, you would think that with all of his research he would've realized that.

so excited for yusei versus aki!!

Kodo basically dug himself into a hole the moment he brought up the events from Aki's past, so I didn't feel bad for him since he goaded her the entire time. The fact that the Arcadia Movement was mentioned was nice foreshadowing, and I'm slightly surprised that Aki didn't realize by this point that Divine was using her for her psychic powers since so far he's displayed all the signs of a handler with his own agenda.

It seems like whenever Akiza is on screen, the puns go into overdrive, whether due to herself or her gimmicky opponents. Also, if she dislikes being called a witch, it seems counterintuitive to use witch monsters.

Ah yes, another Akiza episode. C'mon plants!

And more GX references: Duelist Academy. So, Akiza attended.

Well, that was a duel. Hopefully Akiza vs Yusei will be more interesting.
