5D's 57-THIS EPISODE DESERVES MY GETTING OFF MY LAZY ASS AND FANGIRLING

[northwind_gale]

THIS EPISODE ALSO LEGITAMIZES MY FIRST USE OF SPARKLETEXT.



OH SHOW~

FFFFHHH! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFH.

AAGGHH.

ALRIGHT. LEMMESEE IF I CAN ACTUALLY DELIVER MY FIRST EP-RANT IN A CALM MANNER.

FHAAAA IMPOSSIBLE.

Family photo is adorable~! but no hint of yellow hair anywhere! How did Yuu get those hair stripes? BUT CROW, HOW DID YOU SURVIVE THE GOD SUMMON?!

Battle on the bridge~! I am amused by how Rudger just starts storytelling in the middle of nowhere, but I'm pretty sure subs will explain it...

Ah-ah-ah! Fudo-hakase~! He looks soooo hoooot. And his voice makes me "eeeeeee!"

Rex's voice makes me lawl, however. It sounds so childish and made me lower my respect for him slightly.

Rudger in army uniform looks like Lt. Surge. I am not retracting that statement. Ever.

Did that shadow-faced man mention "Ylliaster"??? Does this make them good or evil?

And it's confirmed. Rudger was the fifth Signer. D8

Ahahaha. Purple-black lasers to the eyes made me lawl hard. Especially the Rudger-flailing that went with it.

Back to duel~ Monster effects...traps...countertraps...dramatic card-drawing and playing...

Ah, hello Crow. Now how does Godwin know your name right of the bat? Because he's GODwin of course Probably has it in Security records somewhere...

Moar flashbacks...Fudo-papa tries to shut down Momentum...and eeee! He get's lasered and bloodied! And drops AFD getting away, so that explains how the DS had it...he gives the cards to Rex to keep safe...

And Rex stupidly seeks out the very person who Fudo-papa took them back from. Oh, Rexy~

Bloody arm-sleeve, and birth of the arm in a jar. Rudger seems to be fighting for his last shred of humanity...gives the arm to Rexy, shoots at him to make him run off with it...then activates the big ol red button that says "WARNING". Blah blah blah, city blows up...

...Oh god. Yuusei-baby is ugly and at the same time so damn cute. But shouldn't he be about a year old by now? Zero Reverse was seventeen years ago, and he's eighteen now...or did he turn eighteen shortly before the series began...:? Or for all we know, he coulda hacked his records to read eighteen so he could D-Wheel legitemaly (without a license!). Could explain why security has all these UNKNOWNs in his database. I dunno, it's just that Yuu-baby looks smaller than a one-year old should be...

...where was I? Oh, right, Fudo-papa sends Fudo-baby to safety in a ricocheting test tube.

And flashback ends. Godwin goes off, tells Crow something about Yuusei before leaving and shutting him off, leaving Crow banging a door, demanding to know what the hell he means...

Duel restarts...traps...traps...MORE traps...is this seriously all happening in one turn...?

Yuusei. You did not just summon Stardust Dragon from your hand in some sort of magical girl summoning pose. Seriously. You didn't, right?

Traps. Traps. Traps again. Yuusei sounds like he's on the verge of tears. He rants.

EEEEEE. Chibi flashbacks. Jack leaning against a tree whilst glaring at children and parents on a playground is adorable. (But that doesn't look like any place that would be in Satellite...)

Moar ranting. Then Crow yells at him from some window further down the pit. (How long was he there?) Some sort of friendship speech/conversation (in which Yuusei's replies mostly consist of "Crow...") Then Yuusei's all revitalized, finishes off his speech/rant, activates THE FINAL TRAP, and then attacks directly.

Rudger loses, but then laughs evilly-and activates THE TRUE FINAL TRAP. Dissolves into dust, blows up his duel disc and...

SENDS YUUSEI FALLING INTO THE SPARKLY RAINBOW PIT!!!!

Not exactly how I expected you to snuff it, honestly. But that's a damn pretty ghey dramatic way to die there. It still doesn't match up with Kiryuu's tho. Not without someone to hold lovingly you in their arms. Not unless you wanted Rudger to do it.

And then it cuts to Godwin who's somehow gotten on his helicopter and is at NDC, now inside his temple...and the light reflects off his eyes in a very eeevil dramatic way as he stares at his brother's arm in a jar.

PREVIEW: OMG CARLY. YOU HAVE A D-WHEEL? HOW? HEH, NOT COMPLAINING. WAY TO REPRESENT THE WOMEN!

...WAIT WAIT WHAT.

IS THAT AN ON-SCREEN KISS?!!!!! IN MY YGO?!!!!
WAY TO GO, CARLY!!!!

AND DID JACK JUST BECOME A DS??!?!?

OH, SHOW!
