Sorry, I'm distracted, I have to go to class soon so this review will be short, brief, screencapless, and unfunny.

Episode starts out with srs bizness. The three tenors are up in this room of awesome which looks like outerspace filled with security screenings of all the riding duels going on. One of the screenies shows a practice Riding Duel between Aki and Yuusei, and Jose seems to have an unhealthy interest in her (you know what, she's in her plug suit. We'd all go bezerk on that). (and now I point to Immi and my crack theory about Jose being Divine somehow just because of the shape of his hair and that he was the first one to go like "Psychic Duelist? :O ") Anyways, the three tenors are on some kinda holographic platform thingy with three suuuuuper tall thrones. Luciano, however, is still focused on Yuusei and Stardust, mentions something about the Crimson Dragon and Godwin, and Placido just acts like a little bitch and goes out of line, I think.

Anyways, another tablet starts falling from the sky (OH HAY THERE OVERUSED PLOT DEVICE) and BOOM CRASH scares a shitload of people (including the two hippies that saw Uru's mark disappear. ILU HIPPIES ) and makes Luciano extremely happy because yay, it's his one (or maybe just because he can stop listening to Placido bitch about how interested he is in Fudo Yuusei and Stardust)!

Anyways, Ruka's laughing at the idea of Rua Riding Duelling (because of course, the little bugger wants to join in on the fun). Then Crow shows up (in his dorky BlackBird Delivery outfit, yay) and gives the group of four the news about the thing falling from the sky. Then Yuusei's all "Ghost showed up after the last one hmm" and they all decide to check it out. Only to be informed by the hippies that the crash site's been blocked off by Security. Bawwwwww. (ilu hippies)

Then we go to school, where there's an awfully cute, awfully talented, awfully rich new student. DUN DUN DUN IIIIIIIITS PLACIDO.....kun.

I know. Already they're calling him Placido-kun. And it's adorable. Especially after he starts paying par-ti-cu-lar attention to our little Signer girl, Ruka-chan. Yep, she's got a crussssshhhhh. Rua's jealous. Ruka's talking to big brother/daddy!Yuusei about her new ~~crush~~ friend and the way she's all hyped up on energy and acting like a little girl just makes me go woobie. Because she's usually such a serious little one and now she's acting like a girl her age. Yuusei's so happy for her (and it makes me kinda sad that these kids apparently don't have parents to tell these things too. But still-Signer bonding~!) Yuusei's concerned that Rua's not excited, though.

Next day, Luciano wants to talk to Ruka, Rua's jealousy gets the better of him and he drags her off.

Teacher later on tells Rua to stay after class for something, but out of sight, transforms into...LUCIANO! DUN DUN DUN ITS A TRAP.

Ruka's walking alone down the street, Luciano pops by in a limo and invites her to come in. NO RUKA DON'T DO IT...ah go ahead. We need plot and nothing's gonna come of it if ya don't.

Rua meets real teacher who asks him what the hell he's doing and to go home. Rua realizes that he was tricked by Luciano, asked around and his friends say that Ruka went to his house.

Somehow he figures out where the guy lives and sneaks in. Sexy butler (who I am convinced is Placido because of the tone of his voice and because he's too hot to be a butler-great logic, North) notices Rua, doesn't give a damn. Rua sees Luciano's "Duel Board" which he's showing off in front of Ruka, then decides hey, it's a present for her. And then teaches her how to start using it. Evil Luciano and Evil Butler start Evil Plot.

Rua tells Yuusei and Jack about this Duel Board and how it's for youngsters to get into Riding Duels and stuff. Then he begs Yuusei to make him one because he thinks Ruka's gonna get in trouble with hers. Yuusei doesn't seem to approve, but he gives in. Oh, Yuusei, you are such a wonderful (and at the same time, horrible) daddy. You should not be encouraging kids to do this. Even if they are magical.

Anyways, Ruka comes home-and nobody's there. And she sleeps on the sofa waiting for Rua to come back. Awwwww.

Rua's in the workshop with Yuusei all night while Yuusei makes him a board. (And I just wanna go BAWWW over Rua sleeping with Yuusei's jacket draped on his shoulders. Because, awwwwwww. Daddy!Yuusei makes a lot of apperances here. At least he's not making speeches about KIZUNA NO NAKAMA. In fact, he's just being...daddy. :D )

Anyways, next day, Rua's practicing with the board. Ruka comes with her own board and says that Yuusei told her where to find him. They start playing together like all's forgiven between the two.

Then LUUUUCIANNNOOOOO (well he has a helmet so the other two don't recognize him) comes out with an awesome looking Duel Board that, when he activates it, starts pulling Ruka's Duel Board (with Ruka on it) towards him! Oh noes! Rua goes off on his own board after her, and so ends up in the range of Luciano's Speed World 2. So, it's Lucian vs Ruka vs Rua. All have 4000 LP.

And duel goes on for two turns before Luciano summons his BIG BAD TABLET MONSTER or so I assume because it's another one of those 5-monsters-make-a-robot-thing. This one looks kinda like a...bird...hawk...something. IDK.

And I'm wondering how the twins will fare. Rua's regular deck is like...half eqiup spells or something and Ruka's got some too, not to mention field spells.

PREVIEW: TWINS VS LUCIANO CONTINUES ON KIDDIE SPEED WORLD! YAY!

Aki on a D-wheel again and the return of the hippies = best parts of this episode for me. Seriously. Well, that and Yusei's :/ face when Rua was all, "build me a motorized skateboard!" and when Yusei's amusing me as opposed to driving me insane there's definately something wrong XD ....also, it needed Sly. I swear he's the only small child on this show I don't mind.... mostly because I like to imagine he's Divine reincarnated somehow... idk

Also, ffffffff, it just occours to me now that you mentioned Rua's deck being mostly equip spells. Power Tool Dragon would be absolutely WORTHLESS in a riding duel. Unless there's speed versions of equip spells (which might be what they're angling towards introing) As indifferent as I am to the outcome of this, I am mildly curious to see if all the infinity monsters are going to be synchro killers. I have a feeling it's going to be the case. Which makes it all rather bland.

This makes me happy because I love the dubbed hippies. Also, Yuusei's being both a good and horrible daddy. He listens to them, but he's also encouraging some unsafe behavior. Also, he leaves them to their own devices. Then again...you know what. He's a better parent than the twins' nonexistent ones. Whatever.

Yep. They're totally gonna intro Speed Equip Spells. Where I wonder Rua and Ruka would get them, considering this whole Riding Duel thing was just thrust on them unexpectedly.

I heard something about "SYNCHROS" in the preview. Which inclines me to believe that all the infinity monsters are synchro killers. Which makes me sad, even though I know there's a whole symbolic thing going on with evolution and crap.

Needs more Sly

also how the hell did the tenors snag a huge mansion o.o?

Sly was in a corner sulking over Stardust or something idk
