Maeriberii Haan Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Uh sakura...[spoiler=stuff]You are aware that the fusion was given by Jean and that it's supposed to make that guy look suspicious? Anyway...[spoiler=RAW Episode thoughts]Yeah, let's just nuke the dimension down. I swear each passing episode made the dimension looks worse and worse. 227 was doing quite great tbh. His combos are good and he does almost get the game in a bag. SEIBAAAAAA looks awesome as expected. Didn't expect the Odd Eyes Pals to be a thing, but it's definitely an intriguing path for the deck to take now. Also, that moment of Berserk yuya appearing momentarily. Still, man, screw Synchro Dimension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler=Response]Yeah, I remembered.But how the hell Jean got it to begin with is still suspicious. (Although like I said, it shouldn't be that hard to learn how to perform Fusion) Some people think he's affiliated with Leo; it looks like it may actually be true, but we shall see. Then again, he was already doing dirty things on the side, so never really liked him. Although there's always that Sergey guy, who's working for him.Indeed, he does resemble Barrett from the Fusion Dimension to some extent, but that won't come around for a good while.

Maeriberii Haan Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler=response]In Arc-V's dimensions bar Standard, only 1 advanced summoning methods exists (unlike in the proper universes), so it's never really a matter of it being easy or not to learn it (unlike in Standard). So Jean definitely has something to do with Academia. I'm saying that he's just a pawn tho. He's showing times and times again that he's unaware of the big picture, and he's probably acting out of self-interest and ended up getting manipulated by the fusion dimension.

~British Soul~ Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler=Thoughts on 71]- Surprise surprise, Yuya spurted out about the way the tournament works to the crowd, needless to say, whilst Yuzu, Sawatari and Dennis were surpised by this, the Executive Council didn't like the outburst and the crowd pretty much didn't care and continued cheering. - That being said, he was booed by the crowd as he entered.- I was kinda surprised that Bot-Eyes Prisma's into Odd-Eyes Dragon given that it became OEPD in episode 2, then again it was needed to SS Odd-Eyes Saber.- Even though we know next to bugger all about it (effect-wise), we know that the firefly P-Pal is a pendulum.- It was nice to see DC227 use Stygian Security though; more of Trudge's stuffs, though when he fusion summoned, it came as a surprise to the locals seeing as he's a resident of the Synchro Dimension. - Nevertheless he lost and had to be stretchered off; and we hadn't seen a turbo duelist be stretchered off since the WRGP in 5Ds. - This is also the second duel in a row in which the loser used a staple (Reborn, though it is banned in TCG).- Another thing to note is that Yuya showed a hint of berserk mode before using Phoenix's Pendulum effect.

[spoiler=response]i dont think that's the case, its likely that Fusion Exist in synchro dimension , just that its not a popular summoning method, after seeing yuzu and serena focused on fusion, there is no suprised reaction unlike when Xyz or Pendulum is first shown i think this should apply to Xyz Dimension as well, they know up to Fusion but no Synchro or Pendulum, while in Fusion Dimension its still unclear that Synchro/Xyz is commonly known there or not, sora seems to know both, but he is one of the scout/invader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramatic Crossroad Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler=71] I'm pretty sure Yuya wanted to prolong the duel and show the crowd his father's entertainment style (he missed the 1st opportunity and only took the next one to win, cause it would have been his last.), but it was kinda sad he had no way to do it - after all Yuzu did to lighten him up i think he's gonna meltdown again soon. Good think though he did spoil it for the remaining Lancers, now everyone can panic when they know what's in for them if they lose... Yuzu was not freaked out at all (sarcasm). Also - the blue d-wheel/helmet doesn't fit Sawatari so much, i was hoping for something darker (pure black would have been a nice contrast to Hugo, who's mostly in white)... well, the gold/mint details are kind of nice.

Timeline15 Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler the saber dragon episode]- Bot eyes lizard: a card that only exists because the card producers walled themselves into a corner by making sabre dragon require the original odd eyes. seriously, why did they ever do that. Did they WANT it to not be usable?- so odd eyes entermates are a thing now. that's pretty cool. Love the unicorn far more than I should.- beserk Yuya for a second. Come on! Come back! I'm sick all this talk of circus duels. take a lesson from Jack, duels are meant to be badass!- Nice to see Yuya realise how difficult it is to actually do an entertainment duel and defend yourself at the same time.- The crowd just don't care that losers get sent to do forced labour? They must have all seen and heard some F'd up things to be so jaded as to not care about that.- Hope Yugo gets some more cool speedroids next time, but, equally, hope Shingo doesn't go out too pathetically.

Common 2: Well, he got his ass kicked by Jack after all! Yuya: Using Dueling to make others suffer is wrong! JACK: Your words will have more weight to the audience if you’re the winner.And yet, you keep shouting without putting up a fight…That’s why I said that you only did it for self-satisfaction. Yuya: Duels are supposed to make people smile! (Egao Count: 68+1=69) Nini-Nana: Enough!Did you come here just to lecture everyone?Don’t waste my time!Just surrender and get out of here!

Nini-Nana: I end my turn! Melissa: This is amazing!Even though Duel Chaser 227 can’t attack on the first turn,He still managed to damage Yuya! Nini-Nana: All right, it’s your turn!What will you do?You’re not going to Duel in a tournament that you don’t agree with? Yuya: (If they’re not going to listen to me no matter what I say…)It’s my turn!

Yuya: I activate Entermate Odd-Eyes Unicorn’s Pendulum Effect!Once per turn, I can transfer the ATK of an Entermate to a battling Odd-Eyes monster! Common 1: What are you talking about?The monster that is battling is not an Odd-Eyes monster! Yuya: All right, please pay close attention to Bot-Eyes Lizard!By declaring the name of an Odd-Eyes monster, Bot-Eyes can be treated as that monster!The name that will be loudly declared is…Odd-Eyes Dragon!Then, I can add Entermate Fireflux’s 1200 ATK to it! Melissa: Both Goyo Predator and the Goyo Arrow equipped to it have been destroyed! Yuya: I shall now attack directly with Fireflux! Melissa: After being preemptively attacked, Yuya managed to make a reversal in just a blink of an eye! Yuya: When the Battle Phase ends,Odd-Eyes Unicorn’s Pendulum Effect also ends.I end my turn with this! Top 1: He’s better than I thought. Top 2: Well, his opponent isn’t Jack.

Nini-Nana: Not going to happen! Yuzu: Yuya! Melissa: Duel Chaser 227 prevented Yuya from obtaining an Action Card!A violent, but wise move! Nini-Nana: I activate Goyo Predator’s effect!When it destroys a monster in battle, it can Special Summon that monster to my field! Nini-Nana: Get over here, Bot-Eyes Lizard! Melissa: Duel Chaser 227 has added Yuya’s monster to his army! Nini-Nana: I attack Fireflux with Bot-Eyes Lizard! Nini-Nana: I end my turn with this!

Dennis: If he attacks the Level-5 Goyo Chaser, he can use Odd-Eyes Unicorn’s Effect to transfer Fireflux’s ATK to Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, which can use its effect to double the damage. (Translator’s note: There’s an error here, as Goyo Chaser is not even on the scene yet) Dennis: Yuya is going to win for sure. Melissa: Will Yuya be able to settle this match in his Battle Phase? Commons: Good going, man!Go for it! {Chess Commercial. Brb} Commons: Do it! Do it! Do it!Kick his ass!Crush him! Commons: Do it! Do it! Do it! Yuya: If I attack, I will win.But that means this guy will be sent underground… Nini-Nana: There it is! Melissa: Duel Chaser 227 got an Action Card!He handled his D-Wheel pretty well, too!

Polymerization!? Nini-Nana: The spirit of the relentless pursuerAnd the spirit of the proud predatorShall now become one!Fusion Summon!Come forth!The one who inherited the lineage of solemn captors!Goyo Emperor! Melissa: This is certainly a surprise!Duel Chaser 227 has Fusion Summoned! Reiji: Fusion…Looks like some rats have managed to sneak into this dimension… Nini-Nana: Let’s do this!I attack Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon with Goyo Emperor! Melissa: Yuya’s monster has been destroyed! Nini-Nana: I activate Goyo Emperor’s effect!It negates the destruction of monsters that battle against this card! Melissa: Heh? It wasn’t destroyed!? Nini-Nana: However, it can also take control of the monster whose destruction is negated!As long as Goyo Emperor is on the field, your ace monster will be mine! Nini-Nana: I attack Fireflux with Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon! Nini-Nana: Since Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon is captured by Goyo Emperor, it will also gain Goyo Emperor’s effect!With that effect, I can negate a monster’s destruction and take control of it. Melissa: Just like that, Yuya lost control of two of his monsters at the same time! Common 1: If he attack directly… Common 2: He will win! Common 3: Go for it! Nini-Nana: Well then, this is checkmate! SAWATARI-SAN: What are you doing, Yuya!?You have to get them fired up! Yuzu: Yuya? Nini-Nana: Why don’t you watch this boy’s disgraceful defeat with your own eyes? Nini-Nana: Go! I attack directly with Fireflux! Yuya: Odd-Eyes Light Phoenix’s Pendulum Effect!When I receive a direct attack,By destroying a card in the other Pendulum Zone, I can Special Summon it to the field! Melissa: Yuya has summoned a 2000 ATK monster to his field!Now his opponent cannot attack directly, and of course, he can’t destroy Light Phoenix either! Nini-Nana: Your struggle is pointless…I end my turn! Melissa: Yuya barely survived the onslaught!But he has taken heavy damage!Can he make a reversal!? Yuya: It’s my turn!I activate the Magic Card, Double Reborn Level 4!Both players can Special Summon a Level-4 monster from their graveyards in defense position! Nini-Nana: What!? I can do it, as well? Yuya: Summon your monster! Nini-Nana: I don’t know what you’re trying to pull, but if you insist…Come back! Jutte Lord! Yuya: Be revived!Entermate Bot-Eyes Lizard!Using Bot-Eyes Lizard’s effect, I can treat it as Odd-Eyes Dragon!Then, by releasing the LIGHT attribute Light Phoenix, Odd-Eyes Dragon can evolve! Nini-Nana: Evolve!? Yuya: Come forth!The dazzling light of salvation that shines in the darkness of despair!Odd-Eyes Saber Dragon!Battle!I attack Jutte Lord with Odd-Eyes Saber Dragon! Nini-Nana: However, I won’t take any damage! Yuya: There’s more!I activate Odd-Eyes Saber Dragon’s effect!When this card destroys a monster in battle and send it to the graveyard,I can destroy one of my opponent’s monsters! Nini-Nana: What!? Yuya: I destroy Goyo Emperor!Since Goyo Emperor is destroyed, its effect will also end!My monsters will return to me! Melissa: Yuya has taken back his captured monsters! Commons: Oh!Way to go!Go for it!Now this is fun! Yuya: I attack directly with Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon! Nini-Nana: Damn it all! Nini-Nana: The winner… Yuya & Nini-Nana: …will be me! Nini-Nana: Here it is! Action Card, Evasion! Yuya: Action Card, No Action!It negates the effect and activation of an Action Magic,And destroys it! Yuzu: Yuya…Is this really what you want to convey? Jean-Michel: Ho. So this is his true nature.Looks like 227’s defeat isn’t such a waste, after all. Melissa: Yuya, well done!Even though you missed your chance to win,And were driven into a corner,You still managed to bounce back!That was magnificent! Commons: Good job! That was fun!You’re awesome!Yuya! Yuya! Yuya! Yuya: No. This isn’t what I want.The Dueling that I believe in is… Yuya: Stop it! Stop it!Don’t do it!You can’t send that guy to the underground!

heraldry_lord Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 [spoiler=Thoughts on 71]I'm honestly wondering if these people are even worth saving at this point. Maybe a good old-fashioned invasion is what they need. Poor Yuya is getting his ideals crushed and ripped apart, to the point where he almost went Yami on 227, and even though it wasn't all the way, he was still enraged enough to just say "To hell with it" near the end.

evilfusion Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 [spoiler=A different take]Am I the only one who actually sees the Synchro Dimension's point of view? That's not to say I AGREE, but I definitely see their angle. The City is a competitive society, according to the Council. The foundation of a competitive society would be that people are required to work with the hand they're dealt. If they want something better, they have to work their way up. They have to overcome the obstacles placed in their way. Born into poverty, they must learn to survive. Faced with discrimination, they have to prove themselves to be better than that. The Friendship Cup unifies Tops and Commons, by giving them the same struggle. If they want fame and recognition and whatnot, they have to win. They apply for the entry slots, so they enter of their own free will NORMALLY. As an added incentive, the losers fall far. They had time in the spotlight, in front of a massive crowd of people, but they failed. They didn't overcome the social Darwinism with the skills they had, and so they are weeded out. The strong ones remain, but they too must be weeded out, because they're aiming for the title of King. Jack was a Commons, and he defeated Tops Duelists. He's proof that the skills and power to become the best can be acquired by anyone. It's proof the system "works". Yes, it's an imperfect system. But Tops who fail miserably in their jobs (DC227) can be demoted to Commons. Commons who excel can probably be promoted to Tops. People are not equal by default, but hard work and dedication can take them further. Laziness and incompetence can ruin them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[spoiler=Response]1. Yeah, they forgot that Yuya made original Odd-Eyes into his current form at the start of the series. I suppose it exists to make the other Odd-Eyes Fusions easier to summon, but that's about it. But indeed, they probably put it in there just because they can't do it. Can probably be used if anyone still cares about the Fusions + bothers to run them in P-pals. Vortex is nice; kinda meh on the other two. Or they wanted to make sure we didn't forget original Odd-Eyes still exists; I really don't know. 2. Cross support is cool; hopefully they get buffed, even though I am getting rather apathetic towards Yuya lately.Chances are that they will be. 3. Ah yes, Berserk Mode would've been good here.Like I noted before in an earlier comment, duels should be epic; not turned into some circus show or 10 minutes of Yuya making references to his father's ideals. 4. Remember Yuya, DC227 wants his job back, so he's going to do everything in his power to crush you.And out of fairness, he would've won if Yuya had not triggered Light Phoenix and/or had said revival card to do whatever. Hell, or even draw Saber Dragon. It's fine to try and entertain the audience, but there's only so far before you get your ass kicked. 5. Reality is somewhat like that, so what can we say about that; the City Council even chewed him out on that remark.It's extreme though, but it does show that you need to really work at it if you want to succeed. 6. Yugo will probably get some more Speedroids, but yeah Sawatari, this is your last chance for redemption.Right now, he is really no more than a joke, given his current track record with that Deck of his.

Tinkerer Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 [spoiler Next Duel]We know Yuugo will eventually have to face Yuya, but does it have to be in the tournament? To be honest, I wouldn't be too surprised if Shingo actually (dare I say it) wins. I feel it might even make sense for Yuugo to be underground for whenever the Lancers go down to rescue everyone. I just don't think it would make too much sense for Yuugo is to be absorbed in front of hundreds of thousands of spectators. So what I think COULD (but probably isn't) going to happen is that Shingo (or someone else) beats Yuugo. Yuugo gets sent underground. Fusion eventually invades Synchro (perhaps if Sergei gets defeated). In the confusion, the remaining Landers rescue those held underground. Yuugo gets beaten by Yuri in the confusion. Yuya finds Yuugo and absorbs him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuya finds Yuugo and absorbs him. [spoiler=Reply]This is POSSIBLE. It would give Sawatari a lot more credibility, and the episode title is something about dragon slaying. However...Yugo is the reason that Reiji considered making an alliance with the Synchro Dimension, and he does have the motivation to fight against Academia already. Sawatari only is a Lancer because Reiji kind of shrugged and said "sure, give it a shot". I don't know how important it will be for Yugo and Yuya to fight, plot-wise. I can definitely see Yuri defeating Yugo in the future, though. Honestly, I think Sawatari beating Yugo would piss people off, because Sawatari's been really obnoxious lately. Yes, it would offer his character some redemption. But it'd also help his character to lose, be forced to do hard work before being rescued, and realize he shouldn't act like a pampered brat in another dimension. It'd be a legit insult to Yugo's character and skills to lose to Sawatari at this stage. I have more interest in Shun vs Dennis. I personally think Shun would win, but I can't help but wonder whether Dennis will actually use that Poly card we know is in his Deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 [spoiler=Response (Tinkerer)]Maybe it'll happen, but personally I'd rather see Yugo win this one.As of right now, my opinion on Sawatari isn't that great, given track record. Like evil mentioned, losing this duel might force him to show humility, especially because as we've established many times, his father isn't here and can't do sheet in this dimension. Every time something goes wrong, who does Sawatari threaten to call? As for the Invasion stuff, whenever it happens, could probably happen. TBH, I more/less want to see that rematch between Shun and Dennis.If Dennis is indeed a Fusion native, will he use it? (And will that translate into Fusion Performages for us later?)

~British Soul~ Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 [spoiler=Regarding Sawatari]I would also hope that Sawatari losing will help him change his attitude because atm he's acting like a pampered brat in a dimension where any influence he had is much much lower than it was in Standard and he doesn't seem to realise that. His father isn't here and would have no power there anyway. Having him do forced labour would be good for his character as it would force him to view life from another perspective.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 @above: No, his father.Who, as we've said many times, can't do crap in the Synchro Dimension. He's essentially in the same boat as his son here. [spoiler=71 sub]Yeah, writers made typo when writing episode.At the time Dennis made that comment about Chaser, it wasn't present; Level 6 Predator existed. Also, I'm not really fond of Emperor's appearance.For a 3300 ATK monster, I'd expect it to be a lot bigger, but at least it has a decent effect. ----I know that Gael and Bordeaux (two of the City Council guys) belittled Yuya for making that remark about forced labor.And yeah, I agree with Jack here; Yuya was theoretically a loser at the time he said that; right now, he won, so there is some merit. But even if he did win, people probably wouldn't have cared if losers get shipped off. Also a note about when DC227 summoned Goyo Emperor. Reiji gave a dirty look at the president, saying there are probably rats in the dimension.That could probably mean that he has something to do with the Fusion Dimension also. However, take this with a grain of salt. ------To be rather honest, I'm tempted to label Yuya's "egao" speeches as his equivalent of "talk no jutsu", given the amount of times he's done this.It's his life to protect his father's dueling, yes, but in this situation, that's just how things work, both in reality and in the tournament. If you lose, then yeah that's how things end up.Win, and you aim for the heavens. But yeah, at least Yuya got serious after a while. Again though, I kinda wanted DC227 to win [and theoretically he would've won if Yuya didn't get lucky with that negation Action Spell]; though the same could be said about Yuya (he would've won with OEPD had DC227 not gotten that attack locking spell). -------At this point in time, I'm getting rather apathetic towards Yuya's mentality, and that isn't a good thing. However, I suppose it's because the previous series had made their fights straight-forward and less focused on trying to make flashy tricks, like what Yuya does. I mentioned earlier that I feel Jack's way of entertaining in duels is more efficient, and is a more appropriate fit for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Jack is very aware of how to truly make things one says have weight. While I think Yuya's attempt to make the public aware of the dark side of the Friendship Cup was a good attempt, it has no weight when the Duel is just starting, and when they've already seen him lose to Jack. Because it makes him look like a wuss. "If I lose, I'll have to suffer the consequences! This is wrong! This isn't how Dueling should be used". The audience even laughed at him and asked if he was already sure he was going to lose. But if you WIN and say "This is wrong, this isn't how Dueling should be used", then they might go "Huh...it does seem a little harsh..." Yuya doesn't seem to grasp how society works. Not just THIS society, but people in general. You won't always be able to fire people up the way you want to, by doing the things you want to. They like risk. They like action. They like to see overwhelming power, or epic struggles. That's why Jack toyed with Yuya in their match. By looking like he was struggling, but then ending the Duel decisively in his favor, he seems SO MUCH more awesome than if he simply crushed Yuya in an instant on his first turn or something.

Tinkerer Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Question: has there been a time when an action card was unusable at the time it was picked up? I've thought that they change depending on the situation. I kinda also want to see someone pick up an Action Trap during this tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King K. Azo Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 [spoiler=71 sub]Again though, I kinda wanted DC227 to win [and theoretically he would've won if Yuya didn't get lucky with that negation Action Spell]; though the same could be said about Yuya (he would've won with OEPD had DC227 not gotten that attack locking spell). [spoiler=Response]Do you know how many times how many people would have beaten Yuya if they didn't have action cards? Heck! Gongenzaka has (I'm pretty sure) lost of all his duels because of them stupid Action Cards! Gongenzaka confirmed best duelist in the show franchise.

heraldry_lord Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 I really hope they haven't totally abandoned Action Traps; those things added a bit more dimension to the Action Duel gimmick, because they introduced significant risk. You had to be cautious about which Action Cards you picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Faytl~ Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 I know. And it gets even more ridiculous when you get people like Kachidoki and Tsukikage grab multiple Action Cards in a row and NEVER hit a Trap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 I don't think Action Traps was ever supposed to be a consistent mechanic in all Action Duels. There was the Duel where Sawatari seemed to have deliberately chosen an Action Field with ONLY Action Traps. And the fortune telling Duel had the random Action Trap as proof that Yuya had horrible, horrible luck, because apparently the odds of getting that Action Trap was exceedingly small.

I don't disagree with you, but I think they should have been; that's just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
