Episode was...interesting.

 

I had hoped the useless side cast would at LEAST successfully escape the black hole and return to their normal world...or end up proceeding to the Varian World. I think they just managed to save themselves and stay in the area...which if that's the case, made the drama utterly pointless.

 

Unless Vector noted to Astral that Yuma considered his Numbers a worthy trade or whatever was going on there.

This just in, 96's C Number is Chaos Number 96: Black Storm. The cover card for Shadow Specters, the next pack. http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Specters

That is EXTREMELY unconfirmed and should be taken with a grain of salt, especially considering today.

 

I'd have already posted it if otherwise stated, though Ark does seem to think it's real.

Jeez, they must really want to keep Number C107's effect under wraps for as long as they can.

 

Anyways, le raw:

The old card backing can be seen, as well as C39: Utopia Ray on the D-Pad instead of Utopia

Interesting episode in so many ways.

 

First off, Dark ZEXAL is hilarious because it's Astral's voice, but a vaguely darker form of Yuma's Zexal body. Astral's voice also comes off as EXTREMELY nonchalant when using Dark Draw and playing Chimera Cloth, up to when he takes damage and starts using closer to Number 96's usual mannerisms.

 

Yuma's series of defensive combos were awesome, but I'm confused as to why he recycled Limited Varian's Force when he should have known he couldn't use it without losing. I'm not sure if it was randomly chosen or if he was hoping to do a solo Shining Draw or similar to change what card it was (which is what happened).

 

I'm debating if Zexal II is more badass looking or more silly-looking.

 

Vector seeming to have a nervous breakdown was quite satisfying to hear. The fact the Duels Durbe and Misael started got no further came as no surprise. They should never have started those Duels in the first place, and the only cool thing was revealing Number 102 and its effect, and the actual form of C107.

 

And yeah, the preview definitely indicates Nasch is Durbe's human form. Was anyone surprised?

Nasch being Durbe? Not at all. Just like I wasn't shocked with him not showing his Chaos Number off yet, because they wouldn't have shown his human form if he was never going to use it.

 

I really want the sub of this to out, because the duel just bugged me. Ignoring the whole Dark ZeXal part, which whilst hilarious, was pointless, Vector's last turn was just... bad. I mean, there was no excuse for him not using Shining's effect to deck Yuma out. That was the entire aim of his deck. And that's glossing over the fact that Astral ignored the fact Ray V could have just used it's effect. But that one I can ignore, because Dark ZeXal. I get it's anime, so it's not going to be that smart, but after Vector went to all the lengths he did... it just felt wrong, so I want to see if he has a reason for not doing that.

 

I kinda liked ZeXal II, and Hope Ray Victory was really bad ass. But.... I'm kinda hoping it's not over used, and that Victory isn't overused, like Ray normal was.

 

C107 better be worth this wait now.

I checked about not using Hope V's effect. According to Wiki, the anime version of Chimera Cloth negates the equipped monster's effects. And it destroys an S/T at the timing it gets equipped. And Vain- Sneer of Betrayal was negating V's effect before that.

 

Vector probably wasn't thinking that clearly. There was a lot going on between moves, what with him corrupting their first Zexal attempt, only for them to form Dark Zexal, which proceeded to completely shatter his lock on C39-V and reduce his LP, and then they were about to commit suicide via an attack loop, but stopped because Dark Zexal broke apart, but they're down to 100.

 

And he draws Rank-Up Magic, which would give him everything he needed to win that turn like...3 different ways. Team Unicorn being absolute morons notwithstanding, even anime characters know that outright finishing a player off by zero-ing their LP when you have the chance to is strategically better than ending your turn without eliminating all chances of recovery. Team Unicorn lacks that excuse because they DID do that and still attacked because it was a more...satisfying? Honorable? means to win.

 

With Rank-Up, he'd bring out out C104, steal the Overlay from V, decrease it by 300, destroy Chimera Cloth, and then attack. Granted, he probably should have used Shining to mill the last card and THEN do that combo.

 

I also checked about Limited Varian's Force. Magic Recycler evidently chooses the bottom-most Normal Spell. It also explains Yuma's reaction to drawing it. He had no idea what it was, and was NOT glad to see it.

Wait...I haven't actually seen the EP yet, so I just read the summary on the wiki. Did Yuma and Astral go Zexal II as soon as their turn started? Because otherwise, couldn't Vector have just activated Barian Bomb in their draw phase and won? He'd probably be able to remember that it was Barian's Force that Yuma was going to draw...

 

Why did Yuma need to uberhax to win :(. And why is Zexal becoming Super Saiyan, except for the fact that not everyone can do it?

No, actually, they didn't go Zexal immediately. Yuma drew his card, saw it was Limited Varian's Force, then collapsed, spoke to Astral for like 2 minutes, then Astral helped him stand and they went into Zexal II. Vector did nothing during this time, at which point they revealed Limited Varian's Force, which visibly changed to Numeron's Force instead. Vector was not amused.
