Bastion Misawa, known as Daichi Misawa in the Japanese version, is a character in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga.

Biography

Bastion is attracted to Alexis Rhodes. Bastion is jealous of Jaden Yuki, when he finds out Jaden has Alexis' phone number. When he hears Alexis and Jaden talking about lending the other their Battle City DVD, he tells Jaden that he has the Battle City and Duelist Kingdom DVDs and decides to Duel him, if Bastion wins Jaden gives him Alexis' phone number, if Jaden wins, Bastion will lend him the Duelist Kingdom DVD. Alexis shows up while they're dueling, while looking to talk to Jaden about the DVD. Bastion loses the Duel, but Jaden tells Alexis she and Bastion should exchange numbers. After they do so, Bastion takes Alexis to watch the Duelist Kingdom DVD, leaving Jaden to whimper about how he was supposed to get to see it first since he won.

It is revealed that before attending the academy, Bastion had dueled against Chazz Princeton many times in tournaments and lost each time. As a result of his losses, Bastion respects Chazz's skill and believes that he deserves to be in Obelisk Blue. He joins the tournament in order to defeat Chazz and Jaden, losing to Chazz in the preliminaries, but winning enough duels to advance. He wins against Reggie MacKenzie in the first round of the finals, albeit because she held back in the last turn, and duels Jaden. Despite how much he prepared, Jaden manages to defeat him. During the mini-tournament held between Duel Academy's students and the Overseas Champions, Bastion teams with Alexis to defeat Adrian Gecko and Jesse Anderson. Later, Bastion loses to James Crocodile Cook and suffers the effects of a Shadow Duel as a result. He is revived when Jaden and Chazz defeat Tragoedia, and witnesses Jaden's match against Koyo Hibiki years later.

Deck

Bastion plays a Yōkai Deck, which relies on the Summoning of monsters from Japanese folklore from his Graveyard. The Yokai Monsters often have effects that activate in the Graveyard. He includes cards which send his own cards to the Graveyard such as "Card Destruction", "Spirits Rest" and "Foolish Burial", while reviving his monsters via cards such as "Vindictive Spirits", "Mezuki", "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" and "Ghostly Reinforcements". He also builds up enough monsters in his Graveyard to Special Summon his ace monster "Red Ogre" via "Judgment of the Underworld Ruler".
