Chaos Number: Card Master Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 They built it up way to much that yusei was zone and then just destriyed it They were about to make the most awesome series of Yugioh but then killed it at the last minute I know think the original was the best again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 i know, i think it was stupid, all that suspense, only to leave us disappointed in the end i'm guessing after watching the episode one of Z-One's cards has the ability to return all monsters your opponent controls back to their hand and they gain 500 life points for each but i think that's wrong and overpowered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I could be quoted somewhere saying that unless ZONE had a really good, tragic backstory, Aporia was infinitely more sympathetic than ZONE. We got ZONE's backstory...I have next to no sympathy for him. See, the awesome thing about Aporia's backstory (in 135) was that it put the villains in an interesting light, that what they want IS for the greater good of the world, and that their goal is extremist and destructive, but ultimately pure. They dont want power, they don't want to conquer the world. They want to stop the destruction of the entire world. It also made Team 5Ds look like the antagonists because Yusei came off as aggressively in denial after Aporia explained. It was fascinating as hell. The next time we see Aporia in a duel, he had given up his concept of despair, feeling it a hinderance, and seemed more sadistic. However, he gave Rua the chance to surrender and not die, which while refused, was awfully generous of the guy who was killing them in a duel and easily had the upper hand. (3200 to 100/1100/100) Antinomy didn't really invoke as much sympathy as Aporia's debut, but he wasn't a terrible guy, either. Yusei being ZONE would have had an amazingly tragic and fascinating backstory: How did Yusei, a guy constantly lecturing about bonds of friendship and hope...end up being essentially a god of despair, who lost all hope for changing the future and felt the only way to do it was a city-wide apocalypse? The twist was not amusing in that "random guy ZONE" is so random as to be completely insignificant. Did the writers realize that fans were sympathizing with the villains and made Aporia and Antinomy change sides while making ZONE some unsympathetic cosplayer? Sure, seeing everyone die sucks, but he was also pretending to be Yusei, making the whole scene look stupider. If he WAS Yusei, then we can talk. We know next to nothing about ZONE.

Sunshine Jesse Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I hope they reveal how Future Yusei died, but I won't get my hopes up :x It might make this Z-One plot seem less like a bait-and-switch if done right. or Jack wins the final duel. that would be great.

~British Soul~ Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 ....or Jack wins the final duel. that would be great.at which point, the end of the duel is cut off like in GX though to be fair Yusei does need to lose again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I found the plot twist to be quite smart actually xD. For one, the writers made it so obvious that it was Yusei. But now, everyone got the overall shock that he isn't Yusei. So I think the writers actually got the best of you all. Also, a worded preview by NAS telling us that ZOne was Yusei seemed a bit suss and a bit to informative. That's why they won't tell us the end of jack vs yusei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Number: Card Master Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I reckon they will cut it off like in GX Shooting Star Dragon attack Red Nova Dragon (5ds over) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Well, the thing about the twist is that the buildup was sooo obvious that ZONE was Yusei, and Antinomy's flashback pretty much confirmed it, the fact he ISNT Yusei is the twist. The problem is that him not being Yusei and instead being someone completely unrelated is stupid in comparison. A successful fakeout, a stupid twist.

Chaos Number: Card Master Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Here would of been a better twist Rex Godwin comes back from the dead as a ghost and steals Yusei's body and he is Zone The funny part is that that could of happened Rex always wanted what was best for the world just always did it the wrong way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I am now 100% convinced that people on YCM have fifty times more talent at developing plots than the writers on 5D's do. Seriously, we could have wrote a better ending than they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 That sounds like a challenge. I'd love to write ZONE's backstory from the "future Yusei" angle rather than "Random poser" angle. Which makes me wonder why they DID it from "random poser" angle.

Merci Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 To make Yusei not look stupid since he kept insisting everything Z-one said are lies. The writers want Yusei to be correct, so they did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 He also said Aporia's motives were BS. But come on, writers, you could have done sooo much better than a cheap thrill of angry fanboys as we're cheated out of the revelation you built up.

Weevil: Wait, you can't play a spell when it's my turn! Yugi: Tell that to the writing staff. Wrong anime I know. But OT: Personally, I'm thinking that Shooting Quasar will appear.

Merci Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Probably something that either bounces the cards somewhere else or removes them from play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merci Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Perhaps something that negates attacks in its entirety, like Antimony's DAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiithepeople Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I'm guessing it's gonna be: You take no damage as long as this card is face-up on the field or whatnot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 That would be a crummy effect, due to the Temporal Machine Gods usually bouncing before burning. It in no way protects Yusei from the TMGs, nor allow him to defeat ZONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector Nightmare Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Something that negates monster effects when it attacks is my bet. I'm thinking something along these lines. Shooting Quasar DragonLIGHT / Dragon / SynchroLevel 124000/40001 Tuner Synchro monster + 2 or more non-Tuner Synchro monstersDuring the turn this card is Synchro Summoned, it cannot be destroyed by battle. This card can attack a number of times equal to the non-Tuner Synchro Material Monsters used for its Synchro Summon. When this card attacks, you can return 1 of the non-Tuner Synchro material monsters in your Graveyard to your Extra Deck. If you do, reduce this card's ATK by 800 (permanently) and negate the effect(s) of the defending monster until this turn's End Phase. When this card is removed from the field, Special Summon 1 "Stardust Dragon" from your Extra Deck. If there are 5 TMGs on the field, and Yusei uses all 5Ds along with LSD on his S/T Zone or somewhere, this will allow 5 attacks, each consecutively reducing the power of SQD (if ZONE builds up his LP or negates / cuts down battle damage, it will allow him to survive the barrage). Then all Dragons will return to the Extra Deck, and SQD will bring STD when it is destroyed by Sephiron during ZONE's turn. Then Yusei will buttpull something and win. I don't like it, but I think that's how it's going to go down, in some variation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 [spoiler=episode summary sorry Epic Saber, i nicked your idea]Z-One: "yusei, you'll pay for cracking my mask!" Yusei: "so what, just replace it, oh and it's your turn." - Z-One's mask crumbles revealing half of his face, everyone does a commercial gasp to move the plot along Aki: "how can.... i don't understand" Z-One: "yusei, i am you from the future" - everyone does another commercial gasp Z-One: "want to know something boring that's gonna waste a few minutes - the Yu-gi-oh ZONE opening comes on as soon as Z-One does his boring speech Z-One: "now i bend the rules by summoning 3 monsters, then gain 1500 lp, return your monsters back to your hand and you lose 1500 lp your turn." MC: "why am i speaking?" Z-One: "now i'm gonna tell you a story, are you sitting comfortably, good then i'll begin, it all started when i was a, ok never mind i wanted to create a clone of any random person so i chose you for no reason. i did some stuff as you yada yada." Yusei: "so you're not me?" Z-One: "my turn i bend some more rules and draw 5 cards at once." Yusei: "ok notYusei i also bend the rules by drawing 5 cards summon 2 monsters oh and i synchro summon ancient fairy dragon." Z-One: "ok then so it's a battle to see who can bend the rules better is it, i bend the rules by summoning 5 monsters at once." Yusei: "wait did you just........ oh wait i will......... Z-One: ".....not save the city." - What's gonna happen with all of this rule-bending find out next time on yugioh ZONE. i can't wait to find out what Shooting Quasar Dragon does, it's like one of the things i can't stop thinking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 I love reading ycm's recaps. They're great. I'm also wondering, was ZONE's reasoning for activating Traps from the hand ever explained? Or is he just plain cheating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
