first time postin here but the way the Team 5 D's vs. Team Unicorn duel ended was....LAME! Damage from attacking a monster n having its defense raised, its almost a slap in the face. I was looking forward to another warrior like Lightning Warrior but then again they already introduced Dragoness.

I kind of liked 5ds because it wasn't about the protagonist hogging 99% of all the glory and card games from the other central characters... it was about him hogging 97% of them, but stilll.

 

Now it's getting there. And Jack and Akiza are supposed to be top-tier Duelists, too. Though Akiza could've gained the advantage over Andre easily if she had chained Stardust's effect to his Trap instead of just gawking at it and bending over.

 

This reminds me, what do you think the reason is behind not letting an Accel Synchro monster be destroyed?

To show off the properties of an Accel Synchro monster - being able to remove itself at any time during the opponent's turn, effectively stopping the Kikoutei in their tracks. Pair this with the ability to Summon it during your opponent's turn, and the fact (I think) that they return during the End Phase, and you have the perfect tool to defeat the big villains of this season.

Wasn't the whole duel for demonstration, though? Still, you're right; there might be something deeper to it.

 

Also, channeling my latest theory from Janime's Speculation Thread:

THEORY:

Dark Glass, Bruno, and Eggman are early Riding Roid prototypes built by Yliaster, possibly as part of an earlier Diablo. When these Riding Roids showed intelligence, they were scheduled for destruction - but a few managed to escape, destroying most if not all research on Riding Roids on the way. Eggman was unfinished and was therefore contained rather than destroyed. They are chased by Yliaster, and while escaping Bruno sees the cat, freaks and flings himself off the highway, crashing on the beach below. Dark Glass managed to escape, while Bruno survived his crash at the cost of his memory. The program Yusei and Bruno designed are the last remnants of the original Riding Roid program that Dark Glass and Bruno destroyed - this is why Yliaster want it back.

 

EXPANDED THEORY:

Sherry is 23 years old, and was 6 when her parents were murdered 17 years earlier by Yliaster. Her parents were working with them and their Riding Roids. They were responsible for the latter's escape, and were therefore executed. They used the Yliaster supercomputer to seal away the unfinished Eggman, and using the Z-One card as the "password" or "key". This occured shortly after the Zero Reverse, which in turn gave the card it's name. With the destruction of the Old Momentum, and Sherry's parents destroying their research, Yliaster were forced to start over.

Well, it certainly was for demonstration, but I don't think that was the right way of demonstrating that particular ability. I dunno, from that short Duel the Accel Synchros seemed fairly lackluster compared to the trouble you have to go through to summon them. No wonder Yusei went for a fusion instead.

This definitely sounds solid enough. I sort of believe that Dark Glass is just a future incarnation of Bruno instead of two different entities (making the lazer eyes vs visor correlation and other things), but anyway.

This is definately the best theory for the show posted here as of yet, whether it comes true or not. The facts support each other completely.

I'll give you Bruno, but I'm not fuly convinced Dark Glass is a riding roid. However your story for Bruno is probally correct. I think Z-One is some sort of ace in the hole card that can stop Machine Empirors. However think about it. Despite the fact we haevn't seen the 3rd, we know its most likely going to be like Wisel and Skiel. 5 monsters in 1. What I'm getting at is what if the 3 Machine Empirors are parts themselves? What if they combine to make a 4th machine empiror?

 

Wisel- body

Skiel- wings

3rd machine empiror- ???

it would be kinda like Machinia Fortress

 

if my theory is true, I think Bruno may be the 1 who uses the 4th. That is, if there are 4. and I know this sound crazy but, I have a feeling something will happen to Mikage, she might get brainwashed or something and become a servent to the 3 directors. thats my theory.

You are right about the Kikoutei eventually being used together - their effects pretty much confirm that, as they gain ATK/DEF from each other's parts - but the rest seems rather unsupported. This season is all about teamwork. I don't think one individual will use all three Kikoutei. I also don't see Bruno turning evil, or a fourth Kikoutei, but something happening to Mikage isn't impossible.

 

To further enhance my theory, look at the first duel of the season: Yusei vs Ghost, a Riding Roid programmed to believe that evolution is bad and must be stopped at all costs. This was the problem with the first Diablo, who created methods to work against their masters from their own knowledge - Accel Synchro and the like. Bruno also shows exceptional skill in the Duel Puzzle - another attack against Yliaster, although involuntary. Bruno and Dark Glass also show many similarities, to the point where many people - including myself - thought they were the same. But perhaps they were just produced at the same time? Constructed at the same place?

I understand what you getting at. as far Bruno going evil, I was saying if he is a riding roid, the insticts he was programed for would kick in and become an enemy. Mikage is another story. she said that Lazar ( sorry, can't remember his jap name. ) is the only 1 who has actually seen the 3 directors. Mikage said she was going to try and find out more about them, possibly meaning to try and meet them. if thats the case, it would be like what happened to Carly. she went to the arcadia movement to try and find info about Divine, Aki, and Misty's brother. In the end she became a dark signer. now do you see? the events are almost the same.

 

but I have another theory. Sherry. I predict she also has an accel synchro. infact..... I think know who has the mystery dragon from Ruka's dream. what if Dark Glass, Sherry, or Bruno is its owner?

The whole point of this theory is that Dark Glass and Bruno broke free from their program and evolved beyond it - they practically became human.

 

Carly wasn't working for the company she was infiltrating, Mikage isn't infiltrating anything, Carly was only looking into the connection between Godwin and the Arcadia Movement. There aren't that many parallels between Mikage in this season and Carly in the last, as far as I'm considered.

 

As for Rudger's dragon, my belief is that it became corrupted along with its master and became the "King of the Underworld". With Rudger's arm finally destroyed, the dragon rests in peace. I could expand on that, but I'll save that for a rainy day.

that part of what I've been saying. and another thing. remember after Carly became a dark signer, Divine planned to kidnap her and make her join arcadia, only to result in Divine's death? what if they plan he use Mikage as a pawn in their plan?

Yes' date=' but do you think Ylliaster wants Mikage there? Just like Divine didn't want Carly there?

Again, you can't really pull parallels between trying to find some info on your new bosses and breaking into a corporation's property and scour through their archives just because both characters are female and ship themselves with ATLAS-SAMA.
